But now...
As she walked, Ming Fei saw the emperor and empress surrounded by many palace maids.
His Majesty was dressed in a dazzling bright yellow dragon robe, his posture was as straight as a pine tree, and his handsome and flawless face shone brightly in the sun.
The queen was also wearing a gorgeous bright yellow palace dress. Even though she was pregnant, she still maintained her graceful demeanor.
The way they walked hand in hand, they were truly as affectionate as a pair of lovebirds.
Ever since the Queen nearly had a miscarriage, His Majesty has never summoned any of the concubines in the palace.
Ming Fei once thought that she was different from others. She took the initiative to go to the Qianqing Palace several times, but each time she was ruthlessly turned away by His Majesty.
From then on, she finally realized, as if waking from a dream, that His Majesty only had the Queen in his heart.
When His Majesty looks at the Queen, his eyes always unconsciously reveal endless tenderness.
But when he looked at these concubines, there was only indifference and majesty.
Ming Fei sighed softly. She knew that she needed to please the emperor, but now it seemed that she could do nothing.
Without thinking any further, she felt that according to the palace rules, she needed to step forward and pay her respects.
So, Ming Fei stepped forward and spoke softly.
"Your Majesty, the Empress, I pay my respects to you."
At this moment, Jun Zechen was chatting and laughing with Su Jingyao. When he saw Ming Fei coming over, the corners of his mouth, which had been slightly raised, instantly returned to its usual seriousness.
I only heard him say lightly: "Get up."
After Ming Fei stood up, her clear eyes were still the same as before, but with a hint of melancholy in them.
She raised her eyes slightly and glanced at Jun Zechen, then quietly retreated very tactfully.
Su Jingyao stared at Ming Fei's receding figure and opened her lips slightly.
"Ming Fei is a pure and pretty woman. I'm afraid that your Majesty's future actions will hurt her feelings."
After saying that, he glanced at Jun Zechen jokingly and said, "Your Majesty, please don't feel bad."
Jun Zechen understood the deep meaning of Su Jingyao's words.
Sooner or later, he will regain Yuehui. By then, if Mingfei can accept all this, she can spend the rest of her life in the harem.
If she can't accept it, Jun Zechen will not be merciful.
At this moment, a hint of coldness slowly emerged in Jun Zechen's eyes.
"I have hurt many people in my life. If I had to feel pain for every one of them, I'm afraid my heart wouldn't be able to bear it no matter what."
Su Jingyao turned her gaze to the hibiscus flowers blooming beside her, slowly walked closer, and leaned closer.
He raised his face slightly and sniffed gently.
The scent of hibiscus is very light, with the unique fragrance and sweetness of the plant itself.
She whispered, "The wind and dew are sad, the autumn scenery is rich, it's a pity that the glory falls in the morning and evening."
After hearing this, Jun Zechen couldn't help but frown slightly.
Then he walked behind her and hugged her from behind.
"There's nothing beautiful about flowers that bloom in the morning and wither in the evening. Yaoyao, you've already walked for two quarters of an hour today. Let's go back."
The last two lines of this poem were not good words. Jun Zechen didn't want to hear any words that doubted whether his feelings for her could last long.
When Su Jingyao heard this, she glanced at him with an angry look.
The next two lines are "There are three thousand women in Weiyang Palace, but only beauty can be preserved, not grace."
Everyone in the world sympathizes with the hibiscus flower, whose prosperity and decline are only a matter of time. There are three thousand women in the Weiyang Palace. They just want to maintain their beautiful faces, but they cannot guarantee that their kindness can last forever.
So, women in the harem really shouldn’t foolishly expect the emperor’s eternal love.
Xu Ronghua and Yan Ronghua were standing not far away, both of them with slightly pregnant bodies.
Now that His Majesty has not been to the harem for a long time, the two of them often go out for a walk together.
Today was really a coincidence. First, I happened to meet Concubine Ming, and then I ran into His Majesty and the Queen.
Xu Ronghua's gaze was fixed on the intimate look of His Majesty hugging the Queen's waist.
For a moment, I felt a sour feeling in my heart, and a deep sense of frustration surged in my heart.
Suddenly I felt that all my previous efforts were in vain.
She once thought that she might be different in His Majesty's heart, although His Majesty had never shown her the same favor as he had shown to Concubine Lin.
However, he also showed great patience with her.
She was able to talk to him about many things, from the gorgeous blooming peach blossoms when they first met to the later interesting conversation about the exquisite porcelain of the Jun Kingdom.
Occasionally, I would chat with His Majesty about embroidery, and His Majesty would listen with great patience.
She originally thought that as long as enough time passed, His Majesty would eventually be moved by her, and some friendship would eventually develop between her and His Majesty.
But at this moment, His Majesty seemed to have taken back all the patience he had given her, and completely distanced himself from all the women in the harem.
Now she is pregnant, but His Majesty has never come to visit her.
Even the rewards sent to Yinyue Pavilion were arranged by the Queen Mother.
Yan Ronghua, who was standing aside, also looked at the figures of His Majesty and the Queen, and was a little dazed.
Looking back, when she first entered the palace, she was still eager to climb up the ladder, and even wanted to get close to Concubine Ye.
But things in the world are unpredictable, and both Concubine Ye and Concubine Lin ended up with such a tragic end.
Now she only wants to give birth to the baby safely and smoothly.
Yan Ronghua murmured to herself, "The Empress is truly enviable. There are many people in the palace who have been favored, but only the Empress has truly entered the heart of His Majesty."
After hearing this, Xu Ronghua touched her bulging belly, feeling confused and resentful.
Why is the queen so lucky that she can easily have the full love of an emperor without having to do anything?
