It was as if she wasn't this little concubine with no rank, and was even the sole mother who was the queen of this world.
Consort Mo was sipping tea with a beautiful woman.
When Consort Mo saw concubine Ning coming up, she smiled and said, "Long time no see, Little Sister."
"Participating in the Consort Mo's Empress and Chen Chongrong." concubine Ning hurriedly paid his respects.
"Get up! Your health is not good, so you don't have to do this. " Consort Mo helped him up and stood up.
"We pay our respects to the two mistresses." Qin Luofei bowed slightly behind concubine Ning.
Consort Mo's gaze fell on Qin Luofei. Seeing her dress up so generously, without a trace of pettiness, she did not reveal any cowardice just because he saw a concubine of a higher rank than her.
"How dare you. Is this how you greet the Consort Mo's Empress?" Consort Mo did not speak, while Chen Chongrong bellowed from the side.
Chen Chongrong was not favored, she was subordinate to the Consort Mo and would often see the Emperor.
Qin Luofei slightly raised her head and looked towards Chen Chongrong. The concubine s in the palace were all seniors from before, but this Chen Chongrong was only a concubine in the past. Her position was too low, and she had never served that person before.
"Thank you for your teachings, Chen Chongrong. It is my first time in the palace, and my etiquette is lacking. I hope that you can forgive me." Qin Luofei was neither humble nor arrogant, but the concubine Ning beside her broke out in a cold sweat for her.
The Consort Mo was easy to talk about, but Chen Chongrong relied on it the most to make people hate him.
"Can you have no rules when you just arrived at the palace?" Chen Chongrong's words were still as sharp as before.
Qin Luofei smiled, her eyes looked at the Consort Mo at the side who was watching the show, and said: "I believe that Empress is kind and magnanimous, and wouldn't blame Luo Fei."
"Forget it." Consort Mo secretly thought, this Fourth Young Miss of the Qin Clan was not an ordinary person, under such circumstances, she was not in a hurry, and could not be underestimated.
"Lotus Butterfly."
Lotus Butterfly, who was standing behind Consort Mo, took an exquisite box from the maid's hands and handed it over to Qin Luofei with both of her hands.
"This is a little gift from this Concubine. Take it!"
Qin Luofei took it over with both hands and opened the delicate wooden box. Inside was a pair of earrings with a green seal and a flat, golden square shaped earrings, as well as two red rubies, and two gold-plated hairpins with double flowers.
The craftsmanship was exquisite and the style was also beautiful. It was something that came from the inner manufacturing manor.
"Thank you, Consort Mo."
Qin Luofei knew that this was the Consort Mo trying to rope her in, so she naturally couldn't fail to appreciate his kindness.
"As long as you like it." Consort Mo picked up the multicolored tea clock in the wine cellar beside him and sipped on it.
"Then I won't disturb the Empress and Chen Chongrong from admiring the flowers." The concubine Ning said respectfully.
Consort Mo waved her hand, and said: "Go down! I will bring Fourth Miss Qin to my palace when I have time. "
Chen Chongrong looked at the figures of concubine Ning and Qin Luofei from the back, and a cold aura leaked out from the corner of her mouth as she said in a low voice: "This Fourth Young Miss of the Qin Clan is indeed very deep."
"Naturally, she's not stupid. She's smart enough to dare to cling on to His Majesty in front of so many people and even get the attention of the emperor." The Consort Mo did not like this Fourth Miss Qin. But she couldn't not win her over.
Sooner or later, she and Imperial Consort Leng would have a fight, and it would depend on who had the better skills.
"Do you think she can be of use to us?" Chen Chongrong looked at Consort Mo.
Consort Mo's eyelashes drooped like a fan as she slowly spat out one sentence. "No way, let's get rid of him."
Chen Chongrong lightly pursed her lips and said, "The Empress is indeed a good idea."
Qin Luofei and the concubine Ning descended the fake mountain.
"You won't blame me, will you?" concubine Ning looked a little guilty.
Qin Luofei shook her head, her lips curled up into a cold smile. "I won't."
"You really don't know how to?" concubine Ning stopped moving and looked at Qin Luofei. Seeing that her face was calm and did not seem like he was blaming him, he finally relaxed.
Qin Luofei had already guessed that concubine Ning bringing his around the garden early in the morning was definitely at the behest of the Consort Mo. Otherwise, how could they have met so coincidentally?
The Consort Mo was strengthening her network. If she were to fight with the Imperial Consort Leng, she would definitely enjoy it.
concubine Ning had been living in the palace for a long time and his health had not been very good. After walking for so long, he was already panting heavily.
Qin Luo Fei Fang felt a bit of care for concubine Ning so he quickly held her arm and they slowly walked back to the palace.
When the two of them reached the entrance of the palace, they found Fan mama waiting for them.
"Greetings to concubine Ning and Fourth Young Miss." Fan mama's face was cold. He said that it was a form of greeting and did not even move.
On the other hand, concubine Ning welcomed him with a smile on his face, and said: "Why are you so free to come here today?"
Fan mama looked at Qin Luofei and said coldly, "The Emperor and Empress wish to see Fourth Miss Qin. Fourth Miss and this old servant shall leave!"
Sunflower and Zi Yuan felt that this Fan mama was truly arrogant to the extreme. She was merely a servant by the side of the Imperial Consort Leng, yet she dared to treat his own miss and the concubine Ning in such a manner.
However, concubine Ning did not feel that anything was amiss, he only said, "Little sister, since it's the Emperor and Imperial Concubine that are summoning us, you should hurry up and go!"
Qin Luofei was wearing Zhou Zheng's clothes, when she heard Fan mama say: "You two don't need to follow Fourth Miss, this old servant will take care of her."
Qin Luofei shot a glance at Daffodil Dayflower and Zi Yuan, who broke out in a cold sweat for Qin Luofei, but did not panic at all upon seeing their young miss.
"Fan mama, please."
This time, Fan mama didn't speak a word with Qin Luofei the whole way. He also walked on his own since ancient times, and didn't ask any questions.
Fan mama felt more and more admiration towards this Fourth Miss. This Fourth Miss was someone he could befriend, and the situation in the harem had changed, it was always a good thing to have another person to protect her.
The Fan mama led Qin Luofei all the way south, out of the inner palace. Qin Luofei was slightly surprised, seeing that the direction of the road was clearly towards the imperial study, did the emperor and imperial concubine want to see her somewhere?
The imperial study was already in the front hall and the imperial concubine was not allowed there. Imperial Consort Leng was indeed favored, she did not even have such a favor that day.
"Does Fourth Miss not want to ask this old servant?" Fan mama looked at the calm Qin Luofei, and said with a low voice.
Qin Luofei remained expressionless as she said, "I believe in mama."
With just a short sentence, Fan mama couldn't help but nod in his heart.
In the palace, there was nothing to understand. The more he understood, the faster he would die. To think that this Fourth Miss had just entered the palace, she knew better than anyone else how to live.
The royal study was located in the Southern Smoke Hall, which was the most important part of the palace.
Qin Luofei stood in front of the palace and looked up at the dazzling palace. As she climbed the steps up, she could smell the faint fragrance of the Nanmu tree. It was said that such a palace was built entirely out of fine Nanmu wood. In front of the palace were two Qilins that represented the majesty of the royal family. These Qilins were made from fine jade and jade, and their light could illuminate people.
As they got closer, the sounds of singing and dancing could be heard.
Xiao Linzi, the eunuch at the emperor's side, was looking around from the entrance of the palace when he saw Qin Luofei and the Fan mama coming up the stairs to welcome them. "Your majesty and the Empress are inviting their esteemed guests in."
Qin Luofei's eyes looked towards Xiao Linzi, but Xiao Linzi only obediently lowered his head, with no expression on his face.
These people were all smart people. They wouldn't show off even if they didn't see a rabbit. His future was unknown, so they naturally wouldn't take care of him.
Qin Luofei followed Xiao Linzi and entered the palace hall with her head lowered.
Nanyan Palace is wide and luxurious, the algal well gorgeous, draw this beautiful auspicious color.
The glittering white stone surface was covered with a red blanket that was embroidered with different colors. Inside the throne, screen; on both sides of the horned furnace, incense, candlesticks. The two corners of the platform before the palace, the eastern sundial, the west side of the cacophony.
It was indeed royal qi image.
Qin Luofei secretly raised her head. Inside the hall, seated on the high throne carved with golden lacquer dragons was a person wearing a muslin robe — — Chapter Twelve: Sun and Moon:
A graceful and noble man wearing a yellow embroidered robe looked down on the world. Below, the singing and dancing were graceful, the sleeves were light, the chiming of bells and the melodious sounds of music were melodious.
The incense from the Golden Crane Stone Mountain Furnace was lit, and smoke lingered in the air. What an amazing scene, it was indeed the pleasure of an emperor.
The emperor had a lazy expression as he gently looked at the dancing beauty below, his fingers caressing the white jade ring.
The head did not have a cirrus crown. There was only a white, transparent jade rhinoceros.
Her eyes were long and narrow, languid and bright, deep and shallow like autumn water. They swayed along with the billowing wind and the billowing waves, attracting people's souls. However, she couldn't conceal her arrogance in looking down upon the world.
The thin corner of her lips curled up into a lazy and provocative smile, forming the most beautiful face under the heavens.
Qin Luofei's body trembled slightly. Even though she used to look at his face day and night, her soul still shook when she saw it. Although she knew that his appearance was good, she never thought that his gentle appearance would still be so peerless.
Qin Luofei wanted to laugh, but she could only squeeze out a faint ripple from the corner of her lips.
"Enter the Emperor." Qin Luofei kneeled on the ground. Since she was still a commoner, she naturally had to pay her respects.
The emperor's bright eyes were filled with a smile as he looked deeply at the woman singing and dancing. The lazy smile in his eyes turned into a pampering look, and it gradually melted into countless dazzling stars.
This was a completely different person from the heartless person in the imperial court. No wonder he was able to coax a bunch of women to want him dead or alive. As expected, it was not an easy task for the emperor.
However, Qin Luofei restrained her heart, not daring to be fooled by him. Wasn't her previous life fallen because of his tender feelings? Wasn't it as though her soul had been shattered and her harem destroyed? In this life, she had to be careful and prudent no matter what.
She felt that this man in front of her was extremely terrifying and was a monster. As long as she was targeted by him, the head on his neck would be gone.
Xiao Linzi saw that the emperor was unmoved and sighed. Seems like this Fourth Young Miss of the Qin Clan was truly blessed and unsettled!
"Your majesty, chenqie's good at jumping." A beautiful woman walked up the steps with her belly puffed up. She threw herself into the emperor's arms, acting without restraint and acting coquettishly. She did not have the slightest scruple about the presence of an outsider like Qin Luofei.
Qin Luofei lowered her head, pretending that she couldn't see anything.
The Imperial Consort Leng fought with everything she had, carrying the Charm Emperor's belly that didn't relax for even a second.
