During these ten days or so, Su Jingyao lived an exceptionally leisurely and comfortable life.
Because she had a miscarriage and did not need to sleep with the emperor, and it was spring with pleasant weather, she would leisurely stroll in the pleasant places in the palace every day.
If Jun Zechen came to Zhaochun Palace for a meal, she would accompany him. If he was having lunch, she would even take a nap beside Jun Zechen.
Today, Su Jingyao strolled leisurely to the south side of the Imperial Garden.
The imperial palace of the monarchy is truly huge, and the imperial garden is also staggeringly large, with the south side planted with crabapple trees.
In this spring day, the sunshine is like a gentle and bright fairy, shining gently.
The crabapple blossoms in the Imperial Garden are blooming vigorously with gorgeous postures. At a glance, the whole garden is full of colorful flowers, as if a gorgeous pink cloud is slowly covering the garden.
As one of the four concubines, Su Jingyao was always followed by a large group of palace servants whenever she went out.
Miaoyun and Miaoxia stood obediently on her two sides.
"Master, does His Majesty like Concubine Lin?"
When Miaoyun was taking a slow walk with Su Jingyao, she was keen on talking to her about the latest news in the harem.
During these ten days, Concubine Lin was summoned by His Majesty twice in a row, and was directly promoted from Ronghua to Concubine. Her promotion speed was really amazing. Now she has become the highest-ranking newcomer.
Even Ye Ronghua, who had a more prominent family background, had never been summoned by His Majesty again since the first time he was summoned.
In addition to Concubine Lin, His Majesty also began to summon other newcomers one after another, and basically started with those with higher positions.
"How can I know what your majesty is thinking?" Su Jingyao's voice was faint, like a feather fluttering in the wind.
Her gaze slowly fell on the colorful flowers in the imperial garden, and there was an elusive look in her eyes.
"Miaoyun, didn't His Majesty favor Concubine Lin twice among the newcomers? His Majesty comes to our Zhaochun Palace every day. How could Concubine Lin compare to the master?" Miaoxia said hurriedly.
"Of course, Concubine Lin is not as good as the master, but there are rumors in the palace that Concubine Lin is the new favorite of His Majesty, and most importantly..."
Miaoyun raised her eyes slightly and looked at her master carefully. Seeing that her master's face was still as calm as water, she continued speaking softly.
"Everyone in the palace says that Concubine Lin has similar temperament and appearance to the master. His Majesty has always liked weak and charming women. Recently, the master has been unable to sleep with him, so His Majesty will naturally favor Concubine Lin even more."
Su Jingyao raised her eyebrows slightly. Perhaps what these people in the palace said was not wrong. Jun Zechen really liked this type of woman.
Miaoyun just asked her if she thought Jun Zechen liked Lin Jieyu. Su Jingyao couldn't give a definite answer. She was not a worm in Jun Zechen's stomach, so how could she know.
Plus, Su Jingyao herself doesn't trust men.
In her opinion, any man will get bored after looking at a beautiful woman for a long time, and there is no stimulation brought by novelty.
Miaoxia had naturally heard the rumors that Miaoyun mentioned, such as that people in the palace felt that Concubine Lin looked like her master.
However, the master's beauty is far more beautiful than Concubine Lin's. Concubine Lin can only be said to be somewhat similar to the master in type.
Therefore, I have no comment on this.
Su Jingyao shook her head and didn't care.
I continued to stroll leisurely and came to a pavilion surrounded by crabapple vines.
"This pavilion looks quite nice. Let's go in and sit down."
Having said that, Su Jingyao walked into the pavilion gracefully and then sat down elegantly.
The dozen or so palace servants following behind him quickly surrounded the pavilion.
Miaoyun also specially sent two palace maids back to Zhaochun Palace to get scented tea for the master.
After the palace maid brought the scented tea, Miaoyun carefully brewed it for her master and then stood quietly by.
Suddenly, a sedan chair appeared on the path outside the pavilion.
Su Jingyao was drinking scented tea leisurely, looking quite relaxed, and she really didn't notice it.
Miaoyun had very sharp eyes and saw it immediately. However, what she didn't expect was that the sedan chair didn't show any signs of stopping!
Miaoyun and Miaoxia looked at each other quickly, then Miaoxia stepped out of the pavilion with a stern tone in her voice.
"How dare you! Her Majesty the Concubine Chun Shu is here, yet you still don't get off the sedan chair and come to pay your respects!"
I saw Concubine Lin sitting upright in the sedan chair. After seeing Miaoxia, a smile appeared on her face.
Then Lin Jieyu's personal maid Yuqi said.
"Aunt, I followed His Majesty's order to go to the Palace of Heavenly Purity to accompany the Emperor. I was worried that I might not make it in time, so I asked the eunuchs carrying the sedan chair to walk faster. I really didn't see Concubine Chunshu."
Miaoxia didn't care what her reasons were. Her master was one of the four concubines. If she let a concubine like her walk away from her master so openly, where would the master's dignity be!
"Now that Concubine Lin knows that the Empress is here, why doesn't she hurry down to pay her respects?" Miao Xia asked seriously with a stern face.
The smile on Concubine Lin's face became a little forced, and then she slowly said, "Get off the sedan."
After hearing Miaoxia's words, Su Jingyao slowly raised her eyes and glanced at Lin Jieyu, who was said to be Jun Zechen's new favorite.
She had a nonchalant smile on her face, and she wasn't worried at all that Concubine Lin would make things difficult for Miaoxia and just walk past her and leave.
As long as Lin Jieyu really dares to leave, she will definitely let her know why the flowers are so red.
