The magpies on the branches chirped non-stop, but the cicadas' chirps were ear-piercing. Midsummer afternoons are always so hot and annoying.

After calling Mei Duo to prepare the water and bathe for a while, Wang Quan came forward to pass down the order. He then hurriedly changed his clothes to receive the decree, not even being able to bathe in silence. It was truly a helplessness.

"To pass on the Emperor's spoken language, may the beautiful woman of the chain play a tune to the Emperor's Shanglin Garden to relieve the heat of the summer." "Understood." I lowered my head and kneeled down to receive the decree. Fortunately, Aunt Ning Xiang had told me earlier that the emperor's oral decree did not require me to kneel down and receive the decree.

Wang Quan said in an amiable tone, "Young Mistress, please quickly change your clothes and follow this servant. It would be inconvenient for us to keep the Emperor waiting. "

"Please wait a moment, Eunuch." I told Lu Shun to take Eunuch to the side hall to have a good meal, and so I took Ning Zhi and Mei Duo to choose a silver-green satin dress for me to wear.

After congealing and preparing the guqin, Wang Quan helped me get on the carriage. Even though he was on the coach, he could still feel the sun scorching his head.

He found it difficult to keep his emotions in check. He was unable to determine the intentions of Xuanyuan, whom he had not seen for a few days. What kind of future would there be between him and me? Was he good to me or bad?

He felt more and more uncomfortable, but had no choice but to endure. Sweat oozed from his forehead and the tip of his nose. He could only gently wipe them away and eventually kowtowed to Xuanyuan Ying Ying with a flower-like smile.

Accompanying them were five concubines. It was their first time seeing each other, so they had to send their regards. But there were two delicate and timid concubines who blessed me. From the looks of it, she seemed like a new concubine. Even her behavior in front of Xuanyuan seemed somewhat unnatural.

The person next to Xuanyuan was the current of Kindness, Yu Ling, and the current Left Prime Minister's daughter, He Zuxian, was also the older cousin of the current Brother Qingyu. The next was Third Prince Yun Yu's birth mother, Madame Jin He Clan's Yessie.

One of the ladies was especially eye-catching. The light green Su Jin's double-layered hollow dress accentuated her sparkling white skin and accentuated her slim waist.

Inside, it was a sparkling yellow color, as fresh and refined as a flower stamen. Thin make-up, pale eyebrows.

However, her face was completely red, like the morning sunlight reflecting the snow. He combed a bun, took a butterfly hairpin that was flapping its wings and was about to fly, and lowered a few strands of golden silk to gently wave along with the wind.

There was a pair of jade bead earrings on her ears. With every movement of her face, there was no other decoration. Like a wisp of cool spring wind in the dry hot midsummer brought refreshing comfort, could not help but have a good impression of her heart.

Xuanyuan Ruoyun's silence was as cold as usual. I pretended that I didn't know what was going on but a smile was plastered across my face. She didn't want to show her cowardice in front of him, so there was no point in trying to curry favor with him.

A coquettish voice, like a twining vine, was heard in his ear. "What a beautiful woman, with a pink and greasy complexion and a graceful figure," he said. This concubine congratulates the Emperor for adding a new beauty.

The one who spoke was Madame Jin, and if one looked carefully, they would see that she was a beautiful lady. Unfortunately, she had to rely on her coquettish charm to look extremely beautiful. He really didn't have any good impression of her, and only said with a light, humble smile: "Madame Jin is too kind.

"Madame Jin really has a good eye. She saw through the essence of Little Sister Shi just by looking at her."

The Imperial Noble Consort maintained her dignified and elegant demeanor as she smiled gently, "However, Little Sister Shi doesn't need to be modest. According to my knowledge, your appearance is something that very few people in the harem can achieve."

Madame Jin snorted lightly: "If you're talking about foresight, I can't even compare to Imperial Noble Consort with my ability to rely on others. "Besides, my sister and you are still married!" The sarcastic words were so melodious that it sounded like the melodious voice of an oriole was worthy of admiration.
