Today, Su Jingyao woke up at about the end of the morning hour, got up, and sat in front of the dressing table.
Miaoxia stood by and gently combed her long hair that flowed like a waterfall.
Su Jingyao narrowed her eyes slightly, looking comfortable.
Miaoxia looked at her master's beautiful face in the mirror, picked up a hairpin, and gently inserted it into her bun.
"Master, rumors in the harem spread much faster than those in the East Palace."
Miaoxia frowned slightly, with a hint of indignation in her tone.
"Hmm? Why do you say that?" Su Jingyao raised her eyelids lazily and asked softly.
"Didn't the master go to the Qianqing Palace to see His Majesty yesterday? People in the palace said that you took the initiative to compete for favor, but His Majesty still went to the Yikun Palace and said that even if you gave birth to a prince, you would not be as good as the imperial concubine."
As Miaoxia spoke, anger flashed across her face.
She was furious when she heard the rumors this morning.
If Your Majesty really liked the Imperial Concubine that much, why would he demote her to a concubine? I was just there to comfort the Imperial Concubine last night.
"fine."
Su Jingyao just curled the corners of her mouth slightly, then stretched out her slender fingers and started choosing on the dressing table.
Finally, she picked up a white magnolia hairpin that Jun Zechen had given her yesterday.
Smiling, she said, "Please put this hairpin on me."
"Yes, Master."
Miaoxia responded, took the hairpin and carefully put it on her hair.
"Miaoxia, if His Majesty knew about these rumors in the palace, he would only feel more distressed for me, and if the other concubines in the palace heard about it, they would only become more jealous of the Imperial Concubine."
Su Jingyao tilted her head slightly, with a faint smile on the corner of her mouth.
After hearing this, Miaoxia thought about it carefully and realized that it was indeed true.
But I still felt it was not worth it to hear some of the comments made by the palace people about the master today.
In her heart, the master is the best, so what even if he is a concubine?
At this moment, Miaoyun hurried in and saluted, "Master, the imperial concubine has left the Yikun Palace."
"Well, okay, then I'll get ready to set off as well."
Su Jingyao stood up and prepared to go to the Cining Palace.
The Qianqing Palace is located in the middle of the entire imperial palace, while the Yiku Palace and Zhaochun Palace are palaces among the six eastern palaces, located to the east of the Qianqing Palace.
The Yikun Palace and the Zhaochun Palace are on the same palace road, but the Zhaochun Palace is below the Yikun Palace.
The Cining Palace is located to the south of the six eastern palaces, so the imperial concubine had to pass by the Zhaochun Palace when she came out of the Yikun Palace to go to the Cining Palace.
Su Jingyao walked out of the palace slowly and calmly.
He happened to run into Ling Yue who was on her way to the Cining Palace.
Su Jingyao had a perfect smile on her lips, her eyes were calm and composed, she bent her body slightly, and bowed with elegant and standard movements.
The voice was gentle as she said, "Your Highness, I pay my respects to you. May your Highness live long and happily."
At this moment, Ling Yue's eyes immediately became sharp the moment he saw Su Jingyao.
His gaze fell straight on Su Jingyao's head like a knife, and a trace of undisguised disgust flashed deep in his eyes.
Su Jingyao still kept her head slightly lowered, as if she didn't notice.
Ling Yue inadvertently caught sight of the exquisite white jade hairpin on Su Jingyao's head.
In an instant, her face became even gloomier, and her long nails dug deeply into her palms, but she seemed unaware of it and did not feel the pain at all.
Was there anything more painful for her than last night?
Ling Yue's thoughts suddenly drifted back to last night.
When Jun Zechen stepped into Yiku Palace, she looked up and forced a smile with a hint of bitterness on her face.
Jun Zechen looked at her quietly, his eyes filled with complicated emotions.
Afterwards, he began to explain to her, to comfort her, and even told Ling Yue everything the Queen Mother had said.
Tell her that she can adopt the prince in the future and then become the queen legitimately.
However, for Ling Yue, no matter how well he spoke.
But in the final analysis, isn't it possible that this man's heart has gradually changed?
She did not make a hysterical noise, but just silently imitated Concubine Shu.
Her eyes were red and she looked at Jun Zechen with tears in her eyes. Her eyes were filled with tears that seemed like they would fall at any time.
The way she acted was that she silently accepted all his arrangements, but she felt full of grievance.
Sure enough, when Jun Zechen saw her like this, a look of guilt gradually appeared on his face, and his expression became softer.
She pretended to be generous and said to Jun Zechen: "I heard that Concubine Shu went to the Palace of Heavenly Purity today. Your Majesty should have accompanied Concubine Shu. After all, she gave birth to the eldest prince. I know I was wrong. I can accept the punishment from your Majesty and the Queen Mother."
"Yuer is kind-hearted. It's good that you think so. When I came here today, Concubine Shu didn't mind. I ordered Anshun to give Concubine Shu a white jade hairpin to comfort her. She said she liked it before."
"So Yue'er doesn't have to worry about Concubine Shu's mood."
Ling Yue responded obediently: "Yes, I worried too much. Sister Shufei has always been broad-minded, kind and innocent." Ling Yue echoed.
Yes, kind and innocent, otherwise where would the title of "pure" come from?
Shufei was the only one with the title in the entire palace. In addition, Shufei had the eldest prince, so Chun Shufei was almost on the same level as her, the imperial concubine.
Not long after Jun Zechen arrived at Yikun Palace, he began to feel a little sleepy.
Ling Yue gently took off Jun Zechen's outer robe. After he sat on the bed in the bedroom, he looked at Ling Yue's back with a dazed look as she was changing clothes and taking off her hairpins and rings.
The back figure seemed a little blurry in his eyes.
Before Ling Yue had changed, Jun Zechen leaned against the head of the bed and closed his eyes to rest.
