However, who could have expected that Concubine Chunshu would suddenly appear at this time.
Xu Baolin clasped his hands so tightly that his nails almost dug into his flesh.
Don't be anxious, she still has a chance. If it doesn't work today, there's still tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. She will definitely wait patiently.
At least today, His Majesty has formed some impression of her.
Jun Zechen walked quickly and was almost in front of Su Jingyao, but Su Jingyao was still looking straight ahead, without moving her eyes to the left at all, and just walked straight forward.
“Ahem.”
Jun Zechen coughed a few times in a pretentious manner.
Su Jingyao could no longer pretend she didn't hear the cough, so she could only say helplessly: "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. I'll take my leave."
When Jun Zechen heard this, his brows instantly frowned. What's wrong with her?
Seeing that she was about to leave, Jun Zechen walked up quickly and grabbed her wrist.
He said with a hint of dissatisfaction: "You have seen me, and you are still leaving?"
Jun Zechen then gave Anshun a look, and Anshun immediately understood.
He waved his hand to signal the palace maids following Concubine Chunshu to go to the Ganqing Palace and wait, and he and Miaoyun quickly retreated to a place about ten meters away.
Jun Zechen looked at her face and saw that there was no smile on her face, which made him even more confused.
"Why is Yaoyao here?"
Su Jingyao looked indifferent and said calmly: "The beauty Shangguan of Yichun Palace was bullied and sent someone to ask me to come, so I went to Yichun Palace to deal with the matter. I feel a little tired now, so I want to go back to Zhaochun Palace to rest."
"If Yaoyao wants to go back to Zhaochun Palace, why take this road?"
Jun Zechen asked, and then said thoughtfully: "I remember that Lady Chu was also in Yichun Palace. Did she make you angry?"
"I am not angry. I have already punished Concubine Chu and Lin Ronghua. Your Majesty, please don't be angry about this." Su Jingyao said calmly.
Jun Zechen felt confused by her indifferent attitude. He always felt that she was angry, but at the same time, she didn't seem to be angry.
And why should he be angry? If punishing them could make her less indifferent, then he would rather she punish them.
"Yaoyao is in charge of the Palace Administration Department. If a concubine makes a mistake, she will be punished."
Jun Zechen paused and said, "Okay, since Yaoyao is not angry, follow me back to the Palace of Heavenly Purity."
Return to the Palace of Heavenly Purity.
Jun Zechen was holding someone, half lying on the couch, and Su Jingyao's slender fingers were playing with the ring on his hand.
Her face was as calm as water, without any ripples. Jun Zechen couldn't see it at all because of the angle.
Jun Zechen just held her quietly like this. Now, facing the women in the harem, he could always remain calm and emotionless.
No one can make his mood fluctuate.
However, if the woman in his arms just gave him a slight look, he would feel uneasy.
This strange emotion seemed to be out of his control and spread wildly in his heart.
In the past, when the two of them hugged each other, they always had endless sweet words to say, and she could say those sweet words that touched his heart directly.
But today's unusual silence made him feel like something was wrong.
She must be angry.
Wasn’t it because of the disputes among the concubines in the harem, but because he was seen in the peach forest with other concubines?
There was a barely perceptible hint of helplessness in Jun Zechen's deep eyes.
He wanted to explain, but was afraid that mentioning other women would only make her angrier.
He just treated the women in the harem as playthings to entertain himself and did not invest even the slightest bit of emotion in them.
If someone is a little more pleasing to the eye, their status will be promoted and given a little position, that's all.
"Yaoyao, I recently got a treasure. Jinzhou presented me with a night-shining pearl. This is the permanently luminous night-shining pearl I know of that can emit visible light the farthest. At night, it can emit a cold green light that can illuminate hair within a hundred steps." Jun Zechen said softly.
"If Yaoyao likes it, how about I send her to Zhaochun Palace?"
Su Jingyao remained silent. On the one hand, it was because she knew that in order to make a man pay attention to her, she needed to make him constantly guess her thoughts, making him feel distant and difficult to control.
Blindly obeying will only make men worse.
On the other hand, she was thinking about Xu Baolin, whom she had just met in the peach forest. Although she didn't know who that was, Miaoyun was very familiar with the new concubines entering the palace.
This Xu Baolin had been involved with the imperial concubine when she was a concubine. After entering the palace, the imperial concubine arranged Xu Baolin in the Yinyue Pavilion outside the peach forest.
Others may not know that Jun Zechen likes to take walks in the peach forest, but the imperial concubine certainly knows it.
Could it be that the imperial concubine wants to use Xu Baolin to consolidate her favor?
No, maybe...
Su Jingyao's eyes flashed with a strange color. Maybe the imperial concubine wanted Xu Baolin's child...
Su Jingyao came back to her senses when she heard Jun Zechen's question.
Before I could answer, Anshun walked in.
"Your Majesty, the Imperial Concubine has sent someone to invite you to the Yikun Palace. She said that there will be a banquet for the Queen Mother's birthday in five days, and she has something to discuss with you."
Anshun carefully glanced at Concubine Chunshu, who was half lying in His Majesty's arms with an indifferent expression, and couldn't help feeling shocked.
Concubine Chunshu looks completely different from when she's facing His Majesty!
Anshun really wanted His Majesty to lower his head and look at the expression of Concubine Chunshu in his arms at this moment.
After just one glance at Concubine Chunshu, Anshun quickly lowered his head.
"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother's birthday banquet is important. I am already tired today, so I will return to Zhaochun Palace."
Su Jingyao tried to break free from his arms, but Jun Zechen's hands on her waist were so tight that she couldn't get away at all.
Su Jingyao turned to look at him in confusion and called softly, "Your Majesty?"
Jun Zechen showed a little impatience on his face, and said to An Shun: "Let the concubine's people go back, I will go to Yikun Palace tomorrow."
His eyes revealed his displeasure towards Anshun.
She is really becoming less and less able to read other people's expressions. Concubine Chunshu was in the Qianqing Palace, and she even came to report to her in front of her.
Anshun felt the cold light from His Majesty, his body stiffened, and he responded and immediately retreated.
