Yichun Palace.
Lady Chu held her head high, her chin slightly raised, and looked very proud.
Her delicate eyebrows and eyes were filled with a proud look, as if the whole world revolved around her.
This Concubine Shangguan is an old lady in the Eastern Palace. After His Majesty ascended the throne, she was only a beauty. She had an ordinary family background, was not favored, and had an ordinary position. What qualifications did she have to argue with her here?
"Miss Chu, the flower room delivered several pots of flowers today, and you've already taken most of them. I just ordered the palace maids to bring the crabapple blossoms into the palace, but you immediately ordered the palace maids to take the crabapple blossoms to the Jade Hall. What's the logic behind this?"
Lady Shangguan frowned, her eyes full of grievance.
She had never been favored by His Majesty when she was in the Eastern Palace. After His Majesty ascended the throne, she only wanted to live in seclusion in a corner and live a peaceful life.
But ever since Concubine Chu entered the Yichun Palace, no matter what good things the Imperial Household Department allocated to the Yichun Palace, Concubine Chu would grab them away in a rude manner.
Today, Miss Chu was really too much, so she couldn't bear it anymore and started arguing with her.
But Miss Chu came from a good family and was also good friends with Lin Ronghua, so she really didn't know what to do for a moment.
In the end, thinking of Concubine Chunshu's good reputation in the Eastern Palace, she sent her personal maid Yanhua to Zhaochun Palace secretly to ask for someone.
Lin Ronghua came to see Miss Chu today. They had agreed to have tea in the Imperial Garden today.
Although Lin Ronghua knew that Concubine Chu was jealous of her promotion, there was only one Majesty, and which woman in the harem would not be jealous?
As Concubine Chun Shu said, Concubine Chu is not the type that His Majesty likes, so she can get along well with Concubine Chu.
At least Miss Chu won't steal your majesty's favor.
"Lady Shangguan, the flower shop also sent some crabapple flowers to my Liushuang Pavilion today. How about I ask the palace maid to bring the flowers to you, Lady Shangguan?"
Lin Ronghua smiled and offered suggestions in a soft voice.
When Lady Chu heard this, she immediately looked disgusted, frowned, and curled the corners of her mouth.
"Miss Shangguan, please consider whether you can afford Lin Ronghua's things."
Upon hearing this, Lady Shangguan's face immediately showed an expression of humiliation. She clenched the handkerchief in her hand so tightly that her knuckles turned slightly white.
Even if Lin Ronghua gave it to her, she would never accept it. His alms-like tone sounded so hypocritical.
"Keep Lin Ronghua's flowers for yourself. I can't afford them. Although I am just a beauty, among the concubines, I have only received rewards from the Imperial Concubine and the Pure Concubine. As for Lin Ronghua..."
Because of their sarcastic words, Lady Shangguan became more and more angry and couldn't help but retort.
When Lin Ronghua heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and a look of astonishment flashed across his face. It was obvious that he did not expect that he would be ridiculed.
Lady Chu frowned, a hint of anger flashed in her eyes, and she raised her hand and pushed Lady Shangguan hard.
He sternly said, "Who are you? How dare you speak like that?"
Caught off guard by the sudden push, Lady Shangguan staggered several times, her body swaying and she almost fell.
After she stood firm, her face was filled with indignation, her eyes wide with anger as she said, "You...you have gone too far. Now that Concubine Chun Shu is in charge of the Palace Administration Department, I will definitely let Concubine Chun Shu uphold justice!"
At this moment, Su Jingyao stepped into Yichun Palace and happened to hear these words from Lady Shangguan.
"What is it that requires my justice?"
The voice came from afar, floating in the distance. I heard the voice before I saw the person.
When Lin Ronghua and Concubine Chu heard the voice, their hearts skipped a beat. They really didn't expect that Concubine Chun Shu would suddenly appear in Yichun Palace.
Lady Shangguan felt relieved immediately.
Concubine Chun Shu would certainly not leave alone someone as arrogant and domineering as Concubine Chu.
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to Her Majesty Pure and Simple. May Your Majesty be blessed with good health and happiness."
The three of them instantly quieted down, and when they saw Su Jingyao walk in, they hurriedly saluted.
"Get up." Su Jingyao said calmly.
When she came out, she was followed by a large group of palace maids and eunuchs. As soon as the eunuchs arrived at Yichun Palace, they quickly moved a throne and gently placed it behind Su Jingyao.
After Su Jingyao sat down, her face was as calm as water, and there was a hint of indifference in her eyes.
"What are you three doing?" There was a hint of unquestionable majesty in his tone, as if it could shock people.
Before Lady Shangguan could open her mouth, Lady Chu spoke first.
"Your Majesty, please stand up for me. Lady Shangguan is relying on her status as an elder in the Eastern Palace to be so rude to Lin Ronghua."
As Miss Chu spoke, there was a look of grievance on her face.
"Although Lin Ronghua has only been in the palace for a short time, her position is still higher than Concubine Shangguan's. How could Concubine Shangguan break the palace rules?"
When Lady Shangguan heard what Lady Chu said, she couldn't help but widen her eyes, her face full of astonishment.
She didn't expect Miss Chu to be so eloquent!
Is this the adaptability of a woman from an aristocratic family? She can really turn black into white.
She bit her lip, wanting to say something but stopping herself, her face full of anger.
Su Jingyao set her sights on Lin Ronghua.
"Lin Ronghua, is what Miss Chu said true?"
Lin Ronghua frowned slightly, her eyebrows twisted slightly, and a hint of hesitation flashed across her face. She was now on the same front as Miss Chu.
After thinking for a moment, he nodded slightly.
"Your Majesty, it was Concubine Chu and Lin Ronghua who first ridiculed me. I was not disrespectful to them. Moreover, Concubine Chu has been competing with me for food recently. Concubines are only entitled to three meat dishes, but Concubine Chu always takes them. The flowers sent by the flower room today are also..."
