After today's sacrifice, Su Jingyao leisurely returned to her tent and leaned lazily on the couch to rest.
She did not join the concubines in the fun or go to the stables to ride horses the whole afternoon.
She had a very clear understanding of her half-baked horsemanship, but she didn't want to accidentally bump into a concubine while riding and cause any unnecessary trouble.
She had just finished listening to Miaoyun's vivid and lively explanation of the dispute between Concubine Ling and Concubine Lin at the horse farm.
That's really interesting.
"Master, I don't know what Concubine Lin said that actually made Concubine Ling so angry that she whipped the whip directly at Concubine Lin's horse, and His Majesty happened to see it."
Miaoyun said this with a smile.
"Well, let them fight. Concubine Ling can't beat Concubine Lin and Concubine Ye. I really hope they can come over a few more times."
There was a nonchalant smile on Su Jingyao's face.
Jun Zechen was already extremely fed up with the schemes of the women in the harem, and she would let Jun Zechen feel what a truly warm harbor was like with her.
This is the second to last step in winning the heart.
As for Concubine Ling and Concubine Lin, Su Jingyao didn't pay much attention to them. It was nice to listen to them to pass the time.
Then she casually asked, "Who did His Majesty summon today?"
As Su Jingyao was the imperial concubine, it was understandable that Jun Zechen stayed in her tent on the first day.
However, if the spring hunt was to stop at her place during these few days, the court officials would inevitably have some opinions, and Su Jingyao would not let Jun Zechen come to her tent every day.
"Your Majesty went to Concubine Ye after dinner." Miaoyun curled her lips and said somewhat unhappily.
Su Jingyao nodded slightly.
Jun Zechen knew that it would be best if he found another woman. She didn't want to persuade him to be fair to her, as this would only make him angry.
However, although Concubine Lin's actions today suppressed Concubine Ling, they also benefited Concubine Ye.
After all, if she had not been frightened while riding a horse today, according to how much Jun Zechen "favored" her, she should have been the one to sleep with him today.
But who knows, there might be many people from Ye Jieyu's family coming to this spring hunt, and the competitions tomorrow and the day after tomorrow will most likely be the ones where the Ye family members stand out.
It is not impossible that Jun Zechen favors Concubine Ye first in order to give face to the Ye family.
The night grew darker like thick ink, and soon it was the end of the hour of Xu.
Su Jingyao was just about to put down the book in her hand and go to sleep.
After all, I still have to ride horses tomorrow, which is very tiring, so I must conserve my energy today.
Suddenly, Miaoyun walked in with a slightly unusual look on her face and went straight to the bed.
Su Jingyao looked at her suspiciously and asked softly, "What's wrong?"
"Master, Eunuch Fuquan is waiting outside the tent. He said that His Majesty invites you to bathe in the hot springs in the back mountain." Miaoyun said carefully with her head down.
Miaoyun was also very confused. Didn’t His Majesty go to Concubine Ye’s tent? Why did he suddenly go to the back mountain to take a hot spring bath?
When Su Jingyao heard this, she couldn't help but frown.
Is he sick?
It would be fine if he summoned Ye Jieyu to take a hot spring bath late at night, but why did he ask her to go?
Could it be that he is preparing to serve two women in one night?
As she thought about it, Su Jingyao's face turned a little unhappy, and she said in a light tone: "Tell Fuquan that I have gone to bed."
She won't go.
"Yes, master." Miaoyun responded and turned to leave.
After leaving, Miaoyun looked at Fuquan with an embarrassed expression, and said anxiously, "Eunuch Fuquan, I thought the master was still reading, but when I went in just now, the master has already fallen asleep."
"You know, His Majesty usually doesn't dare to wake the master during the morning court session. How could I dare to disturb the master who is sleeping?"
After hearing this, Fuquan frowned, his face full of confusion. This...
The Imperial Noble Consort was asleep, so it was indeed difficult to disturb her. If he made her angry because of this matter, he would be the one who would suffer in the end.
Afterwards, Fuquan could only go back to His Majesty with a bitter face and prepare to report everything truthfully.
Back mountain hot springs.
Jun Zechen's expression was indifferent, his arms slowly spread out and lazily rested on the wall of the hot spring.
His eyes were deep and cold, his thoughts were churning, and he was immersed in thinking about the current situation in the court.
When he was the crown prince, in order to make his position as solid as a rock, he originally wanted to bring down the cunning and treacherous fox Su Shangshu Ling.
So that his own people can replace him and take over smoothly.
But who would have thought that his mother would later ask for permission to appoint Yaoyao as his crown prince's concubine.
At first, he never thought about the impact a concubine would have on his decision-making in the court.
However, as time went by, his heart unconsciously shifted towards Yaoyao little by little.
After that, the old fox Su also began to show goodwill to him. In addition, Jun Zechen thought that Yaoyao had a strong family background, and would be more confident in the harem, not to mention the existence of the eldest prince.
Therefore, Jun Zechen has now completely given up the idea of touching the Su family.
Seeing that the daughter of the Su family was so favored in the harem, the Ye family naturally sent their daughter into this year's draft.
When Jun Zechen went on an expedition as a prince, he had secretly cultivated his own army, in addition to the army handed down to him by the previous emperor after his death.
Today, he has a firm grip on the control of one-third of the kingdom's army.
Another one-third of the army is stationed on the border all year round. After all, the kingdom has a vast territory and faces threats from foreign enemies in all directions.
