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 it was 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 enormous, and the imperial garden is also astonishingly large, with the south side planted with crabapple trees.
In this spring day, the sunshine is like a gentle and bright fairy, falling gently.
The crabapple blossoms in the Imperial Garden are blooming vigorously with gorgeous postures. At a glance, the whole garden is filled with a sea 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 both sides of her.
"Master, does His Majesty like Concubine Lin?"
When Miaoyun accompanied Su Jingyao for a slow walk, she was keen to talk to her about the latest news in the harem.
In the past ten days, Concubine Lin was summoned by His Majesty twice in a row, and was directly promoted to Concubine Concubine. Her promotion speed was really amazing. Now she has become the highest-ranking newcomer.
Even Ye Ronghua, who came from a more prominent family, 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 more 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 emperor's new favorite, 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.
In addition, Su Jingyao herself does not trust men.
In her opinion, any man, no matter how beautiful a woman is, will get bored after looking at her for too long. There is no stimulation brought by novelty.
Miaoxia had naturally heard the rumors that Miaoyun had mentioned, such as that people in the palace thought Concubine Lin looked like her master.
However, the master's beauty is far superior to that of Concubine Lin, and 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 slowly and came to a pavilion surrounded by crabapple vines.
"This pavilion looks quite nice. Let's go in and sit down."
As she spoke, 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 flower 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 flower tea leisurely, looking quite relaxed, and really didn't notice it.
Miaoyun's eyes were extremely sharp and she saw it immediately. However, what she didn't expect was that the sedan chair didn't show any signs of stopping!
Miaoyun and Miaoxia exchanged a quick glance, and then Miaoxia stepped out of the pavilion with a stern tone in her voice.
"How dare you! Consort Chunshu is here, yet you still refuse to dismount from your chariot 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, your servant, followed His Majesty's orders to accompany the Emperor at the Palace of Heavenly Purity. I was worried that I might be late, so I asked the eunuchs carrying the sedan to move faster. I didn't see Consort 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?" Miaoxia asked seriously with a stern face.
The smile on Concubine Lin's face became somewhat forced, and then she slowly said, "Get out of the sedan chair."
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 Lin Jieyu 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.
