The sunlight outside seemed to be slowly pulled by an invisible big hand, gradually dimming bit by bit.
Immediately afterwards, the gorgeous sunset light like brocade gradually and softly enveloped the entire imperial city.
Su Jingyao lay lazily on the beauty couch, her body facing the picturesque sunset outside the window.
She narrowed her eyes slightly, and brilliant colors were reflected in her eyes. The beautiful scenery made her involuntarily ignore the filth hidden in the dark in the harem for a while.
Miaoyue walked over lightly, holding a bowl of Ajiao soup steadily in both hands, with a look of concern on her face.
"Master, since you have no appetite tonight and don't want to eat dinner, I specially made you a bowl of donkey-hide gelatin soup. Please fill your stomach with it."
"Well, give it to me."
Su Jingyao's voice was very gentle. Although she didn't feel hungry at the moment, she really didn't want to refuse Miaoyue's kindness.
Su Jingyao stretched out her slender jade hand, took the bowl of donkey-hide gelatin soup, then slowly picked up the bowl, tilted her head slightly, and began to drink it in small sips.
Miao Yue on the side continued: "Master, Lin Ronghua was not only framed by Miss Chu, but also by Shen Ronghua. It is said that he was quite frightened and even went to invite the imperial physician today."
As she spoke, she carefully watched her master's expression.
"And His Majesty also went to Liushuang Pavilion to visit."
Miaoyun stared at her master, and when she saw that Su Jingyao's face was still as calm as water, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Su Jingyao looked calm, with a thoughtful glint in her eyes.
In fact, she never thought from the beginning that Jun Zechen would not have sex with anyone else during the month when she was recuperating.
Jun Zechen has been patient for more than half a month, and he comes to Zhaochun Palace to accompany her every day. From this point of view alone, at least her status in Jun Zechen's heart is not low at present.
The requirements for the emperor cannot be too high.
She narrowed her eyes slightly and said softly, "Try to place some of our people in Lin Ronghua's palace. Find a few with average abilities, but there must be one with strong abilities."
"Let the strong one find a way to become Lin Ronghua's attendant. As for the weak ones, we must protect the strong one at all costs, even if it means exposing ourselves."
Su Jingyao's expression became a little serious. In this harem, she would not look down on anyone. She had to look three steps ahead before taking one step. She had to have sufficient layout and planning.
Now that she has great power in the harem, she can naturally cultivate more people of her own.
She would take precautions in advance against anyone who posed a threat to her.
She wasn't the type to just wait for others to harm her. If Lin Ronghua really stood in her way...
Oh.
"Yes, Master."
Miao Yue quickly responded, then added, "Xilu has recently trained quite a few smart and capable young eunuchs, as has Nanny Li. Many palace maids in the harem, because of the favor of Zhaochun Palace, have secretly passed us notes, wanting to do their bit for Zhaochun Palace."
"Yeah." Su Jingyao nodded slightly, her expression still calm.
"Just carefully screen these people. I trust Xilu and Madam Li."
"Although relationships bound by money are certainly not very reliable, the saying 'money makes the world go round' is not just talk. We are family, so there's no need to let them suffer any grievances in terms of money."
In her opinion, money can solve 90% of the difficulties faced by the lower class. Meaningless care and empty promises are not as practical as giving money.
The only ones who can make Su Jingyao show some sincerity are the girls around her.
"Yes, Master, I understand. Miaoxue is in charge of the Zhaochun Palace's accounts. Our Zhaochun Palace is the least short of money in the palace."
Miao Yue said with a proud look on her face.
Liushuang Pavilion.
Lin Ronghua lay quietly on the bed, with a hint of anxiety between his eyebrows.
She stared intently at the maidservant beside her, Yuqi, and asked anxiously, "Yuqi, hasn't His Majesty come yet?"
"Master, don't worry. I have received news that His Majesty is on his way to Liushuang Pavilion."
Yuqi quickly replied with a soothing look on her face.
Lin Ronghua frowned slightly, and asked nervously, "How does my makeup look now?"
After saying that, she gently touched her cheek with her hand.
"Master, don't worry. You are already weak, and now you have put on a whiter makeup. It does make you look a little sickly, but it doesn't affect your beauty at all."
Yuqi said with a smile, her eyes full of certainty.
After hearing Yuqi's words, Lin Ronghua felt relieved and his expression relaxed a little.
After a while, Fuquan's shrill voice was heard coming from afar.
"Your Majesty has arrived—"
When Lin Ronghua heard this, he hurriedly got up from the bed, and in his panic he almost didn't put on his shoes properly.
Before she could leave the bedroom, Jun Zechen's tall figure walked in quickly.
"Your Majesty, your concubine pays homage." Lin Ronghua hurriedly saluted, her voice soft.
"Well, get up. I heard that you were sick today?" Jun Zechen said lightly, with a very calm expression on his face.
"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I have always been weak since I was a child. I was frightened recently and that is why I suddenly fell ill."
Lin Ronghua lowered his head slightly and spoke in a low voice, looking very adorable.
Jun Zechen nodded gently, "Since you are sick, just go lie down in bed. I really wronged you this time."
"Yes, Your Majesty, I thank Your Majesty for your understanding."
Lin Ronghua's eyes were instantly filled with emotion, and his eyes were slightly moist.
In the harem, His Majesty has only been to Zhaochun Palace and Yiku Palace in person, while other concubines who want to serve him in bed are always carried to the west hall of Qianqing Palace, and His Majesty will not let anyone stay overnight.
Although I was in danger during this incident, I escaped unharmed and even received the sympathy of His Majesty.
Now, her Liushuang Pavilion is the only concubine's bedroom that His Majesty has visited, except for Zhaochun Palace and Yiku Palace, and it is also a unique favor among the newlyweds.
Lin Ronghua thought a lot in her mind, and felt an inexplicable sweetness for the special treatment His Majesty showed her.
She believed that as long as she spent more time with His Majesty, he would no longer be so cold and indifferent. She would be satisfied as long as she could receive a little tenderness from the majestic emperor.
In the quiet bedroom, Lin Ronghua, with a slightly pale face, was half lying on the bed, occasionally finding some topics to talk to Jun Zechen.
Jun Zechen would also respond patiently.
However, he did not stay in Liushuang Pavilion for long. After two quarters of an hour, he stood up and said, "Since you are sick, you should rest well. I still have matters to attend to in the Ganqing Palace, so I will leave first."
Lin Ronghua originally thought that His Majesty would stay in Liushuang Pavilion tonight, but he didn't expect that he would leave.
A trace of disappointment flashed across her face, her mouth slightly opened, and she begged softly: "Your Majesty..."
Her eyes were full of reluctance and desire to keep him. She wanted to keep him.
But His Majesty came because she was ill, and she could not serve him.
Then, she bit her lip lightly, a hint of helplessness flashing in her eyes, "Your Majesty, I respectfully bid you farewell."
