Su Jingyao's face became increasingly red, but she couldn't help but secretly complain in her heart.
Men in the world are all the same, they just like these unpleasant words.
Su Jingyao gently closed her eyes, not wanting to look at him anymore, her voice as soft as a feather.
Jun Zechen smiled with satisfaction and said something in her ear.
Su Jingyao's beautiful eyes widened as she stared at him and said, "I didn't expect Your Highness to be so unrestrained!"
Jun Zechen did not comment on her evaluation. He always attached great importance to etiquette and was a gentleman.
But he always seemed to be unable to help saying some teasing words to her.
She is the only one who is "profoundly talented and knowledgeable" and knows everything.
The second day.
Su Jingyao woke up slowly, only to find that Jun Zechen had already gone to court.
She sat up gently, Miaoyun hurried over to help her wash and dress up, and then she went to Qiluan Palace.
When she arrived, the five new beauties in the palace were already seated in their respective seats.
Su Jingyao walked forward, bowed slightly, and said softly, "I greet you, Crown Princess Sister."
"Concubine Su, please get up." Ling Yue's voice was faint and no emotion could be heard.
The other five also stood up and bowed to Su Jingyao, saying in unison: "Greetings to Concubine Su."
Su Jingyao walked slowly to her seat and sat down. Her seat was to the lower left of Ling Yue, and opposite her was An Liangdi.
The corners of her mouth turned up, revealing a faint smile, and she said, "Get up, all the sisters are really beautiful."
Her voice was clear and pleasant, as if carrying a hint of warm spring breeze.
Ling Yue looked at these beautiful women who were like flowers, and tried his best to suppress his emotions.
She is the Crown Princess and will be the Queen in the future, so she must be more generous.
Ling Yue took a deep breath, kept herself calm, and said slowly: "Since Concubine Su is here, the sisters can introduce themselves."
Her expression remained calm, but her eyes revealed a subtle hint of complex emotions.
The first person to speak was naturally An Liangdi. She raised her head slightly, with a look of confidence and composure in her eyes, and slowly introduced her family background and name.
Ling Yue nodded slightly, without much change in her expression.
The next one was Bai Mengli Bai Liangyuan. She opened her red lips and said slowly, "I am Bai Mengli, the daughter of the Minister of the Central Secretariat. I like to play chess. I heard that Concubine Su in the East Palace is an excellent chess player. I wonder if you can ask Concubine Su for advice?"
As she said this, there was a hint of expectant smile on her face, and her eyes unconsciously glanced at Su Jingyao.
"Of course." Su Jingyao smiled slightly, with her usual sincerity.
There was a gleam in her eyes, as if she had really found a confidant.
"Your Highness is very busy with government affairs, so he can only spare time to play chess with me. I am worried that I can't find a confidant to play chess with in the East Palace. It's great to be able to play chess with Bai Liangyuan to kill time."
He seemed genuinely happy to have such a chess-playing partner.
Bai Mengli's face froze for a moment, but soon returned to normal, except that her smile seemed a little forced.
"My sister just entered the East Palace yesterday. I always heard from outside the palace that His Highness and the Crown Princess were in harmony. But after entering the palace yesterday, I realized that His Highness actually dotes on the Concubine Sister so much. The five of us who entered the palace could not match His Highness's love for Sister."
There was a hint of resentment in Bai Mengli's tone, but it was not easy to detect, and there was a hint of jealousy and unwillingness in her eyes.
Su Jingyao's eyelashes drooped, and her long eyelashes trembled gently like butterfly wings.
This Bai Liangyuan was quite good at talking. Not only did she sow discord between her and Ling Yue, she also made the five newcomers to the palace stand on the same front.
When Ling Yue saw this scene, she felt inexplicably happy.
She wanted to know whether Su Jingyao would still be willing to be bullied even when faced with provocation from others.
She raised her chin slightly, with a hint of inquiry in her eyes, and stared at Su Jingyao closely.
Su Jingyao smiled shyly.
"It is my honor to be liked by His Highness. There is still a long way to go, and I am sure my sister will be able to do the same."
As she said this, a blush appeared on her face, as beautiful as the sunset in the sky.
Bai Mengli choked. She didn't expect Su Jingyao to answer like that. Shouldn't a normal person be humble?
She pulled the corners of her mouth and revealed an unnatural smile.
"Sister Concubine is extremely beautiful, so it's only natural that His Highness likes her."
Su Jingyao lowered her head in agreement, her face pink, looking shy and cute, making people want to protect her.
But he sneered in his heart. All the sarcastic words were powerless in the face of frankness.
Ling Yue didn't expect that Su Jingyao could resolve such targeted words so easily.
Her every word and action was sincere, including the fact that she was favored by His Highness. She acknowledged it without any affectation and told everyone frankly that she was delighted by His Highness's favor.
Ling Yue's heart sank. Could it be that Su Jingyao didn't have any weaknesses at all?
Next is the introduction of Chen Biwan and Shangguan Yi. Chen Biwan is beautiful, while Shangguan Yi is very cute.
The last one came was Tang Suxi and Tang Fengyi. Su Jingyao set her eyes on her.
Tang Suxi was wearing a light-colored dress today, and the texture of the dress seemed obviously inferior to that of others.
However, her appearance stands out among these people. She has the kind of pitiful little white flower appearance.
Su Jingyao thought to herself, if this woman had good acting skills, she would be the kind of pure and innocent white lotus that Jun Zechen likes.
But.....
If the acting is not good, then it will definitely step on Jun Zechen's weak point - charming but as vicious as a snake.
"I am Tang Suxi, the daughter of the Yong'an County Magistrate. Greetings, sisters."
Tang Suxi walked slowly to the middle, her voice as soft as silk.
The other women who were selected to enter the Eastern Palace with her all looked down on her to some extent.
Tang Suxi naturally knew this too. After she introduced herself, she quietly sat back in her seat.
"It's getting late. Let's stop here for today's greetings. I'm tired too."
After hearing what the Crown Princess said, they all slowly stood up, bowed and took their leave.
Su Jingyao thought a lot on the way back.
Ling Yue has indeed changed a lot. At least she can now remain calm when facing Jun Zechen's women.
That won't work.
A year later, Jun Zechen ascended the throne, and it was impossible for her to let Ling Yue become the queen.
There was a gleam of viciousness in Su Jingyao's eyes. Since An Jinyan had entered the Eastern Palace ahead of time, how could the heroine and the supporting actress in the novel not fight with each other?
Naturally, she had to help them both.
It would be best if both sides suffered losses and she reaps the benefits.
