Rong'er said in his heart: Although I know that the Imperial Concubine Wen wanted me to be this undesirable person in front of the Emperor, I still chose to go. Maybe it's because I have that little bit of jealousy in my heart that I want to give it a try.
"Your majesty, your consort specially prepared these clothes for you. Your majesty originally promised to not get used to the weather in the north, and now that you have a body, you should pay more attention to keeping them warm." The Imperial Concubine Wen said respectfully.
"When did Imperial Consort Wen ever give up on King's promise?" Xuan Ye replied indifferently.
"Your majesty, ever since the previous emperor's teachings, chenqie has been reflecting on a lot of things. As a grand concubine, chenqie really hasn't done enough. Actually, chenqie has always had the king's approval during this period of time. I just didn't know that Your Majesty would be here today." Imperial Concubine Wen looked wronged.
"That's right, Your Majesty. Imperial Concubine Wen has always meticulously taken care of chenqie." Wang Ying hurriedly said.
Xuan Ye nodded lightly, "The harmony of the harem is what we want to see the most.
"Your majesty, it's already close to winter, and the palace's allotments will be adjusted according to the circumstances of the various palaces." Your majesty, it's already near winter, and the palace's allotments will be adjusted according to the circumstances of the palaces. The Imperial Concubine Wen said with a smile.
"Mm, you handle the harem. I am relieved." Xuan Ye smiled slightly. Seems like Ze Ying had indeed changed.
"Then chenqie will take her leave first!" The Imperial Concubine Wen retreated in a very proper manner.
After exiting the palace, a hint of a smile hung on the corner of Imperial Concubine Wen's mouth. After waiting for so many days, they had finally 'encountered' the emperor today.
"Mistress, I've sent all the rations in the Imperial Concubine Ping Palace to the Chengqian Palace King for his agreement." Su Ya hurriedly said to Rong'er after he returned from the Yikun Palace.
"Not only in the Imperial Concubine Ping Palace, the rations in our palace have also been reduced." Xiao Qing said in a low voice.
"How could this be?" Rong'er frowned slightly as he spoke.
"I'm not too sure. The people in their palace said that the Imperial Concubine Wen arranged it like this, and it was also because of the Emperor and King's requests." Su Ya shook his head and said.
"Send all the cotton-padded clothing and quilts that we need for the Eastern Sun Country to Yikun Palace first." Rong'er replied softly.
"Master …" Xiao Qing was interrupted before she could finish her words.
"Imperial Concubine Wen has arrived!" The clamor caused everyone in the palace to shudder.
"Why is the Imperial Concubine Wen here again?" Xiao Qing frowned, and followed Rong'er to receive.
"Elder Sister Rong." Imperial Concubine Wen's face was full of enthusiasm the moment he entered the door.
Rong'er was a little surprised, raising her head to look at Imperial Concubine Wen, but did not say a word.
"Big sister, I know that I have offended you a while ago. Tell me the truth, I accidentally found out a truth when you were patrolling the North." "Yes." Imperial Concubine Wen's face was filled with pain.
Rong'er looked at Imperial Concubine Wen indifferently, she did not understand what he meant.
Imperial Concubine Wen clenched her teeth and said softly, "Big sister killed herself."
Rong'er lightly nodded, and said with some surprise, "You still know about it. How did you know? Very few people in the palace know of this matter. The Emperor has given the order to keep it a secret. "
"Didn't elder sister already know about it?" I won't tell others, this is the shame of my New Hulu family, how dare I say it! "Actually, what's important is not how I know, but how sad I feel after knowing the cause of my sister's death!" Imperial Concubine Wen said in a low voice.
"Actually, I am also very sad about this matter. Empress Xiaozhao should not have taken this path." Rong'er also began to feel sad.
"Elder Sister Rong, when I just found out about this, my first reaction was because the Emperor doted on you and forced my sister to her death. So the hatred in my heart might have been a little too much for you." Imperial Concubine Wen's tone was full of guilt, "But, these few days, I … Day. I have been ridiculing you every day, but my heart is not in a good mood. Now that I look back at how favored the king is, isn't it because I can't help but feel that you are doing this to yourself? To be honest, the Emperor's favor was his fortune. How could he blame that person? Actually, it's still my sister's fate, right? I can't think of it and walked onto a dead end. " Towards the end, Imperial Concubine Wen's eyes had already turned red.
Seeing Imperial Concubine Wen in such a state, Rong'er's heart was especially bitter, "So that's how it is. Your concubine understands your feelings, so I don't blame you."
The Imperial Concubine Wen nodded his head lightly, then smiled at Rong'er, "I know that Elder Sister Rong is a kind person, it's just that I'm overdoing it, it's just that older sister, since the King agreed to be favoring me, I have no objections, but since the Emperor was too arrogant, I can't do anything about it. After the Emperor gave the order, I complied, and reduced the rations for all the other palaces to give to the King.
"Oh, so it was an order by the Emperor." Rong'er nodded and whispered, "I've already ordered someone to deliver all the things in my palace to Jiaoping."
"Elder sister, one or two times is fine, but what about after this? I'm so worried. " Imperial Concubine Wen sighed, "Sigh, I only came here to discuss with big sister because I know that big sister is the oldest in the palace. But now that I think about it, what can big sister do? The emperor didn't like harem people the most. If someone told the emperor that the king had agreed, they would definitely be scolded by the emperor. Who would dare to say that? Sigh! Forget it, I'll head back first. " Imperial Concubine Wen stood up as he spoke.
After Rong'er politely sent Imperial Concubine Wen out the door, he sighed lightly and muttered to Xiao Qing who was beside him, "Today, all the Imperial Concubine Wen came to provoke me."
"Mistress, this servant thinks so too. The palace is currently dissatisfied with the emperor's promise to pamper his king, but they don't even dare to tell the emperor about it. Now that the Imperial Concubine Wen has made it clear that he wants you to go and speak about it, Mistress, don't say it, or else the emperor will be annoyed." Xiao Qing said as he frowned.
"The sky is getting colder and colder. Is it going to end like this?" Rong'er sighed, "Since Imperial Concubine Wen wants me to say it, then I will say it."
"Master, I feel like the Imperial Concubine Wen's words are a bit too hot and cold to make people worry. Are her words sincere today?" Xiao Qing asked worriedly.
"She seemed to be sincere. She knew the cause of death in the Empress Xiaozhao and felt sad about it. It is understandable for her to do something out of bounds." Rong'er nodded slightly. "Don't keep thinking bad of others." Rong'er thought about it lightly for a while, before replying in a low voice, "Go and tell Gu Wenxing and have him report to the emperor, tell him that I want to speak to the emperor."
"Mistress, do you really want to say it?" It's not good for anyone to do such a thing! " Xiao Qing said worriedly.
"What is good? What's bad? "The emperor hasn't come to see me in more than a month. I'm just a spoiled concubine, how could I be bad? There are still people who want to say these words. If the emperor still remembers our relationship, I hope they can listen to what I'm saying." Rong'er sighed lightly.
"Imperial Concubine Rong, we always thought that you were a woman who understood the general situation. Your words to us today have really disappointed us." Xuan Ye said indifferently without raising his head.
In Qianqing Palace, Xuan Ye sat at the side of the table and watched the Recital talking to Rong'er, while Rong'er stood beside the table. After dinner, Xuan Ye heard that Rong'er wanted to see him, so he called her over.
Rong'er sighed lightly in his heart and said in a low voice, "Your majesty, chenqie hopes that everyone in the harem can follow the rules and not have the privilege."
Xuan Ye frowned and looked at Rong'er, "Didn't you just say that Imperial Concubine Wen gave more supplies to the King?"
"Yes, your majesty. Your consort has already said that it is only right for the king to promise to bring more goods with him. However, if all the palaces agree to transfer, then it would be a bit unreasonable." Rong'er was unafraid, but he still calmly replied.
Xuan Ye put down the Recital in his hands, stood up, and looked at Rong'er, "Imperial Concubine Rong, you have never been like this, all these years, in our memories, you have never said these things, and even more so have never come to cause trouble for us!"
"Your majesty, you've misunderstood chenqie. Chenqie didn't come here because of the emperor's favor towards the king. Chenqie is only here to discuss the matter." Rong'er whispered.
"Humph!" "Is that so?" Xuan Ye dragged his voice, "Our imperial harem also has more than thirty concubines, why haven't we seen them? Yet, you are the only one who is dissatisfied with your son? " Xuan Ye chuckled, "Could it be that Imperial Concubine Rong is also getting jealous?"
Hearing Xuan Ye's words, Rong'er shook his head once again, and said patiently, "No one said anything.
Xuan Ye coldly snorted. "Imperial Concubine Rong, you have always been the one that makes us most at ease in this imperial palace. I really don't like hearing you talk about other wives."
"Your Majesty, chenqie didn't …" Before Rong'er could finish, he was interrupted by Xuan Ye.
"Imperial Concubine Rong, I admit that I have been a little lax with you recently. I have some special feelings for King's promise, Rong'er, and I sometimes don't know, but she can make me happy. She is so young and beautiful that I can't help but want to take care of her. Xuan Ye let out a light sigh, and said while smiling, "Rong'er, we don't wish for you to have any jealousy and hatred in your heart, so the Rong'er with jealousy is no longer the Rong'er in our heart."
In truth, no matter how much she tried to explain it, it would be in vain. When she thought about how she would come today, she would at least feel some jealousy, and she would also want to see how the emperor would respond to her request. Since her heart was not pure and flawless, there was nothing wrong with saying that.
"Why? Why did the Imperial Concubine Rong and the Emperor say that the King had agreed not to be, that nothing had happened at all, and that the Emperor hated talking to one another about the Queen's behavior the most? Su Dayu, why do you think? " The Imperial Concubine Wen looked at his personal palace maid in anger.
"Mistress, it seems like even if the Emperor dotes on the King and agrees, his friendship with the Imperial Concubine Rong is still there, so …" Su Dayu replied softly.
The Imperial Concubine Wen angrily sat down. "I originally thought that this time I would let the emperor talk about the Imperial Concubine Rong and reduce the weight of the Imperial Concubine Rong in the emperor's heart. But I didn't expect that the emperor would listen to her words.
"Mistress, how can this be for nothing? Su Dayu smiled faintly, "Chenqie thinks that the emperor will still be a little dissatisfied with Imperial Concubine Rong's way of handling this. The only thing that he has done after allowing her to play is friendship, but if the emperor agrees to let the Imperial Concubine Rong go to him, then the emperor will definitely have some ideas as well."
"How do you know?" Imperial Concubine Wen looked at Su Dayu.
"Master, it's normal for people to have feelings. What's more, the Emperor only has some friendship with the Imperial Concubine Rong now, after all, he hasn't come as deep as before, so Master doesn't need to worry." Su Dayu consoled her with light words.
The Imperial Concubine Wen nodded, "That's true, she has been doted on by the Emperor for so many years, it's impossible for her to lose her position in the Emperor's heart in one go."
