Chapter 268 Playing Cards



"Have you seen enough?"

Su Jingyao raised the corner of her mouth and asked with a smile, with a hint of sarcasm in her smile.

Bai Yingyue's expression instantly became extremely complicated. She dodged for a moment, then refocused on Su Jingyao.

"You...are His Majesty's new favorite?"

There was a hint of uncertainty and nervousness in her voice.

"I'm his old love."

Su Jingyao raised her eyebrows, her tone full of teasing.

Bai Yingyue's eyes widened instantly, and she was stunned. She couldn't think straight for a moment, and her thoughts seemed to be in chaos.

Su Jingyao couldn't help but chuckle when she saw her like this. She was quite cute.

Did Jun Zechen find a replacement after her death?

"How about you ask everyone around to leave and let us have a private conversation?"

Su Jingyao asked lazily while eating.

Bai Yingyue seemed to be under a spell and obeyed her words for some unknown reason.

Soon, the maids left the Moon-Watching Pavilion, leaving only the two of them in the space.

"If the information I received is correct, your Majesty's ex-lover was the late queen, and the late queen died five years ago."

Bai Yingyue took a deep breath and spoke slowly.

"Just kidding. Since you know that the late queen was your majesty's old love, do you also know that you look a bit like the late queen?"

Su Jingyao turned sideways and leaned forward slightly, and the two of them looked into each other's eyes.

"I know, but I don't care." Bai Yingyue bit her lip, her eyes determined.

"When did you enter the harem?"

Su Jingyao sat back down and asked casually.

"One year ago."

"Have you ever been favored by His Majesty?"

Bai Yingyue pursed her lips tightly, her face turned pale, and she said nothing.

Seeing her like this, Su Jingyao knew that Jun Zechen did not lie to her.

"Are you disappointed?" Su Jingyao asked.

"No."

Bai Yingyue answered this question very quickly, with a clear and decisive voice.

"You are quite insightful."

Su Jingyao nodded slightly, with a hint of appreciation. A woman who is not obsessed with love is more attractive.

"Since you've asked me so many questions, can I ask you something?"

Bai Yingyue raised her chin slightly, with a tentative look in her eyes.

Ever since she became the head of a palace, she had long been accustomed to calling herself "this palace" in a condescending manner. However, facing this mysterious and unique woman in front of her, she could not put on that arrogant attitude no matter what.

Su Jingyao slowly picked up the teacup, gently blew away the hot air from the rim of the cup, and then took a small sip gracefully.

you asked. Her voice was calm and gentle.

"What is your relationship with His Majesty?"

Bai Yingyue also picked up the teacup, concealing her inner nervousness and took a sip.

"He forced me to have a relationship with him." Su Jingyao said calmly.

Bai Yingyue was so shocked when she heard this that she almost spit out the tea in her mouth.

She widened her eyes and looked at Su Jingyao in disbelief. She blinked her eyelashes rapidly at Su Jingyao several times. She was completely stunned and didn't react to the meaning of her words for a long time.

Your Majesty, a man as cold and distant as you, would actually one day force himself on a woman?

This was beyond her imagination.

"What about the late queen?" Bai Yingyue finally calmed down and asked again.

"Maybe he is fickle, or maybe his deep love for the late queen is just an illusion."

Su Jingyao remained calm and talked nonsense in a serious manner.

Bai Yingyue's doubts grew deeper and deeper, her brows furrowed tightly, and she fell into deep thought.

Su Jingyao glanced at Bai Fei beside her and wondered if the substitute Jun Zechen found was a little too simple.

"I am having a great time having lunch with a beautiful lady today. I wonder if Lady Bai Fei would like to spend the afternoon with me?"

Su Jingyao's mouth corners raised.

Jun Zechen didn't let her go out because it was too boring.

Bai Yingyue was already full of curiosity about her, and after a little thought, she nodded in agreement.

Afterwards, Su Jingyao walked briskly with Bai Yingyue towards Jun Zechen's room.

Bai Yingyue stood at the door, her feet seemed to be nailed, she hesitated and dared not move forward.

Seeing that no one followed her in, Su Jingyao turned to look at her in confusion, "What's wrong?" There was a questioning look in her eyes.

"Your Majesty never lets us into his chambers."

Bai Yingyue looked a little nervous.

"It doesn't matter. This room is mine now. I'll let you in. Let's play cards this afternoon."

Su Jingyao waved her hand nonchalantly.

She traveled around the empire in the past five years, saw many new things, and learned many fun games.

Bai Yingyue hesitated for a long time, bit her lower lip with her pearly teeth, and finally gritted her teeth and stepped into the room.

When Su Jingyao wanted people to relax, she spoke in an interesting and humorous tone, and teased the beauty playfully from time to time, which soon made Bai Yingyue let down her guard, and their relationship quickly became familiar.

At this time, the two took off their shoes and sat cross-legged on the bed, with a pile of silver and jewelry beside them.

After Bai Yingyue became a favorite concubine, she naturally had no shortage of money, but Su Jingyao was suddenly captured by Jun Zechen and was penniless. The silver next to her was all the money she had just won from playing cards.

"eat!"

Bai Yingyue had a serious face, staring at the cards in her hand. The moment Su Jingyao dropped her cards, she raised her eyebrows and smiled, her smile full of pride.

She was finally going to win.

When Jun Zechen returned to the room, he heard the cheerful voices of the two women. He couldn't help but frowned and walked in with some displeasure.
