Zhong Miao Yi was really not used to being courteous with Zhou Xu.
Zhou Xu affectionately called out to her, as if she was her older sister. Those who didn't know her would think that they had been friends for many years.
However, after thinking about it carefully, it was not really a problem for Zhou Xu. In the end, it was still because the Zhong Miao Yi was too cold and detached.
In the past, when she tried to beat around the bush with these men's words, she had been much better than Zhou Xu.
In the end, it was all because of her current state of mind and experience that had changed too much.
If it was in the past, she would definitely have been able to play around for a while and dig out a lot of things from her mouth. She didn't want to do it now, didn't want to make herself too uncomfortable.
Shun Chang poured some tea for Zhou Fu. It seemed that she was planning to sit down for a while and chat like a normal person.
Zhong Miao Yi had already calmly accepted it, and it was not as uncomfortable as before.
At this time, after calming down and carefully looking at Zhou Xu, he felt that she was still the type that was very attractive. Although the first glance was important, the most important thing was to get along with her over a long period of time.
Second Master Zhou's home tutor was indeed very good. Even when Zhou Xu sat down, she still wore a smile on her face, which did not make the Zhong Miao Yi uncomfortable at all. On the contrary, it made the Zhong Miao Yi gradually adapt.
This kind of temperament wasn't something that just anyone could possess. Some people had innate affinity with each other, and some people were just studying in the future.
Zhong Miao Yi originally belonged to the latter category.
"Sister being raised in the palace like this isn't a long term plan. Sister thinking about it, two days later, inviting sister to go find the other two sisters of the Zhou family to have a seat, sister, what do you think?" Zhou Xu sat there for a long time, but she no longer called herself Chenqie. Instead, she started calling herself Little Sister.
Of the three girls that came from the Zhou family, she was indeed the youngest. From the sound of it, her relationship with the twin sisters seemed to be so-so.
Before this, the Zhou family had not been in the capital, so it was unlikely that they would have such a day. Therefore, they were not so serious as they thought. The girls must have been friends.
However, such a relationship was not worth mentioning in the palace. After a period of time, everyone would be indifferent, and while they were still able to sit down and talk, Zhou Xu still wanted to drag Zhong Miao Yi out for a walk.
The Zhong Miao Yi shook her head instead: "I'm sick, so it's not right for me to go to a crowded place, so as to prevent everyone from getting infected by my illness. You just entered the palace, so it should be better if you go walk around the Emperor's body more.
Zhou Xu knew that the Zhong Miao Yi would definitely reject her, and that it was just a formality from the beginning.
She guessed that the person should be here by now. She subconsciously looked towards the door, but before Zhong Miao Yi had the chance to ask what she was looking at, a group of people walked in.
Shun Chang quickly went to welcome him, and after asking around, he led him over, and said loudly: "My lord, the Eunuch Wu beside the Emperor is here."
This Chief Eunuch did not know where Su Zeyi had found him, and although he looked extremely familiar, he was unable to recall where he had found him.
However, to be able to stay by Su Zeyi's side as a Chief Eunuch, he must have played a key role back then.
The Zhong Miao Yi nodded and smiled: "Why have you come here, Eunuch?"
After bowing to the Zhong Miao Yi and Zhou Xu, he said with a smile, "It's nothing much, the Emperor asked this servant to come to the Frostfloat's palace to invite Honorable Zhou over. This servant didn't see anyone, and thought that Honorable Zhou was still around, so I came over."
The Zhong Miao Yi slightly nodded her head, but there were no changes. On the other hand, Zhou Xu was very happy, and asked: "What business does the Emperor have with me?"
Eunuch Wu glanced at Zhong Miao Yi, and probably felt that it was not good to speak about this here, but when Honorable Zhou asked, he could only speak the truth, "The Emperor told this servant to tell the honorable. Tonight, the Emperor wants to see the honorable person, congratulations to the honorable person, this is the first favor the Emperor has shown you."
Zhou Xu was stunned for a moment.
Usually, the first three days in the palace wouldn't be spent sleeping, but Su Zeyi wanted to see her today?
This was indeed the first honor he had received. He was stunned and didn't know what to say or do.
In the end, Ah Jiu still followed up with a few words: "Congratulations Imperial Consort X, your highness should quickly head back to the palace to prepare. The instructor's aunt should be arriving at the palace very soon."
Only then did Zhou Xu react. After thanking Eunuch Wu, he looked at him uneasily: "Elder sister."
Zhong Miao Yi laughed. Her heart had indeed tensed up a little just now, but now she did not feel anything. "Go quickly, don't make aunty wait."
Seeing that the Zhong Miao Yi was not angry, Zhou Fu let out a sigh of relief and left with him.
Ah Jiu escorted them to the door and when they returned, they saw Zhong Miao Yi napping while holding his head. It seemed like his head was in pain.
"Honorable person." She stepped forward to help the Zhong Miao Yi massage him, but was blocked off slightly by him.
Zhong Miao Yi knew that day was coming, but even if she knew, she still had a knot in her heart.
Zhou Xu had been sitting by her side this whole time. Was it because he already knew that Su Zeyi would definitely make her go to sleep today, so he had purposely let her see and hear him?
Zhong Miao Yi did not know, and did not want to think too much about it.
But after experiencing so much, she would subconsciously think like that, causing her head to ache.
Su Zeyi would definitely pamper Zhou Xu, not only Zhou Xu, he would also pamper those new concubine s one by one. In the future, the most uncomfortable person in the palace, should be Yun Mengqi.
She was different from him. He was still able to think things through, and not fight with so many people for that pitiful amount of sincerity.
No, for a very long time, she wouldn't be able to rest. Her heart was filled with Su Zeyi, ever since she was young, she had been acting like a little kid behind Su Zeyi.
Yun Mengqi firmly believed that she was present in Su Zeyi's heart, and that she could keep her here. Therefore, the Zhong Miao Yi didn't dare to have such a thought, and wouldn't have such a thought either.
All of Yun Mengqi's energy would be attracted to these new concubine s, and the good scenes of the harem never stopped. The corners of Zhong Miao Yi's mouth hooked up, as she could already sense the upcoming bloody rain.
She was the insider to this scene as well as the outsider to this scene. The outsider was filled with sorrow and joy, and no one could be left alone.
