Wang Rong gave a faint smile. "There are two empress dowager's staying in the palace. When I entered the palace, my mind was set."

The imperial concubine gave two awkward laughs. "It's common for concubines to not see the noble face of the Esteemed Empress Dowager. In the future, they would come by day to pay respects to the Empress and listen to her teachings. That's why they say such words."

"The imperial concubine of the harem pays her respects to me. I think once every three days is enough."

"You make the decision." Zhu Yijun said.

Zhu Yijun only stayed a while before returning to the Qianqing Palace, while Zhang Juzheng still had not left yet. After leading the group to send off His Majesty, Wang Rong asked the palace maid to give the rewards to the palace concubines, so she wanted them to leave first.

"The Empress is currently seated in the middle of the palace, celebrating with the heavens and earth. It's a pity that big sister Imperial Consort Guo can't see it." Sun Yige said in a delicate voice. Her entire body was a bright red. While she said that it was a pity for Er Zi, her eyes were filled with scheming and probing.

"empress has always been magnanimous. As I see it, the first one is the reward from the Imperial Consort Guo." She had originally been on good terms with Wang Rong and stayed in the same hall as her, but she had not been able to keep her cool during the latter half of the conversation. She had played some tricks in the back, even though she felt ashamed and worried that Wang Rong would take the initiative to distance herself from her after finding out that she was the one playing behind the scenes.

She sighed at her own foolishness, and wondered if Yang Jingru and Liu Jing's concubine was related to Wang Rong. After all, everyone had witnessed the close relationship between the three of them, and worried about her afterwards, when she had gradually distanced herself away from Wang Rong and Wang Rong, she had not said a single word. Did she already realize that she would not target her after she entered the palace?

Cui Yu was anxious, and quickly decided to seek refuge in the Imperial Consort Guo. Imperial Consort Guo's Holy Pet was famous in the palace, and when they sought refuge with their beloved concubine, they would have the courage to fight against the Queen.

However, Imperial Consort Guo was suddenly grounded and the Empress entered the palace. Cui Ruo looked at Wang Rong with an even more majestic expression.

"That's right, the first reward the Empress gave when she entered the palace. If only big sister Imperial Consort Guo could personally come out to receive your gratitude." Sun Yige said.

"What happened to Imperial Consort Guo?" Wang Rong played dumb and asked, "I didn't see her today, so I thought she was on leave."

"This is the first time that a imperial concubine has met her. As long as no one is injured, they have to crawl over to pay their respects. How could they possibly take a leave of absence?" Seeing the Imperial Lower Consort Yang, the two of them did not say anything, and said, "Empress did not know, but we, the Empress of Imperial Consort Guo, were just punished by His Majesty to stay in the palace and meditate for half a year. That's why we cannot come today to pay our respects to the Empress, even when it's time for the wedding, she cannot come to fetch the Empress into the palace."

"With regards to the empress's wedding, even the most vicious criminals in the heavenly prison were pardoned. With regards to the small mistakes that Big Sister Imperial Consort Guo committed, why didn't the empress personally lift her lily-white hands, which could more clearly reflect the Empress' benevolence and magnanimity?" The empress always loved names, didn't she? If you don't release him, doesn't that mean that you aren't benevolent and magnanimous enough, and that you can only be considered as a descendant?

He didn't expect that Wang Rong He would slowly say, "The order of the general amnesty is His Majesty's Saint Zende, regardless of whether it is a small mistake or not. His Majesty said that we should pardon him, but if he doesn't, then we won't forgive him. Is it possible that His Majesty did pardon the criminals in the prison, but not only did he forgive the Imperial Consort Guo who committed small mistakes, he's heartless?"

Beauty Sun immediately kneeled on the ground, "I was wronged, I dare not. It's just that I thought that the Empress is the master of the empress palace and all the women in the empress palace are under the Empress's control. The Empress lightly raised her noble hand and spared the Imperial Consort Guo. It was all my good intentions. I really don't know how I was misunderstood to such an extent. " As Beauty Sun said it, her eyes were filled with tears.

"You're wrong." Wang Rong He said, "I am the head of the imperial harem, but there is still the empress dowager in this harem, not to mention the emperor above."

"Imperial Consort Guo was ordered to be punished by His Majesty. Since His Majesty did not say he would release them, then I cannot." Wang Rong He said, "I know that there is a deep affection between the beauty and the Imperial Consort Guo sisters, so I believe that after the Imperial Consort Guo was imprisoned, I have also pleaded for mercy from His Majesty. Did His Majesty agree to that?"

How could she dare to beg His Majesty and let him off when she was sleeping with him? She did not have that much face, "I am just a little beauty, His Majesty will not listen to me, but His Majesty will not disobey the Empress."

"I'm confused." Wang Rong He shook his head lightly, "If Your Majesty wants to release the Imperial Consort Guo, you can just yell like a cat or dog. If Your Majesty doesn't want to release the Imperial Consort Guo, even if I am the Empress, Your Majesty will not agree. Furthermore, His Majesty did not even ask the Imperial Consort Guo to come out for the wedding ceremony, so wouldn't the result be obvious? "

"His Majesty thinks that now is not the time for Imperial Consort Guo to come out." Wang Rong He said. She picked up her teacup and took a sip.

"Actually, there's no need for a beauty to be so nervous. Imperial Consort Guo has a very deep affection for her, you know this better than I do, so there's no need to be anxious. When Imperial Consort Guo comes out, His Majesty will definitely not let her stay in the palace for another day." Wang Rong She said, "If you are worried that I will harm the Imperial Consort Guo, then you don't have to be nervous. This is the first time I have seen you all today, so I shouldn't have said this.

"Unless it is against the rules of the palace, I will not interfere in any way in the competition for the favor of all of you. As for who Your Majesty likes, that will depend on your abilities." Wang Ronghe said, "But there is one thing that I will never forgive if I use underhanded methods." If you want to use underhanded methods to fight for the favor, you have to think about whether or not you can hide it from me. "

"Alright, it's time to disperse." "I am tired."

As Wang Rong and the others returned to their Jiaotai Palace, they stood quietly not far away while holding their heads as though they were thinking about something.

"Sigh ~ ~" Wang Rong sighed. Today was only the third day, yet he already felt as if he was living a long life. Marriage is tiring.

"Why do you sigh?" The moment Zhu Yijun entered the palace hall, he heard a sigh.

Wang Rong bowed as she got off the brick bed, and Zhu Yijun sat down on the bed, allowing Wang Rong to wipe his hands with a hot water handkerchief that was given to him by the palace maid, "Zitong still hasn't answered us! When we came in, why were palace maid waiting outside? "

"I was lost in thought for a moment. They didn't want to disturb me so they went out to serve me." Wang Rong He said, "Sighing is just a very bad habit of mine, I'm already changing it. Can Your Majesty please pretend you didn't hear me earlier?"

"Did someone make you unhappy after I left?" Zhu Yijun asked, "You are now the empress, so you can punish whoever who makes you unhappy. You don't need to worry about your worries and sigh after returning to the palace."

"Who would have the guts to find trouble with me today? The empress can already be her." Wang Rong He said. Since His Majesty is back, let's call for a meal. Wang Rong changed the topic.

During the meal, Zhu Yijun was still amused by Wang Rong. "We have bestowed so many dishes to you, but today is the first time that we have brought them back. We have to thank empress for this."

"Your Majesty, please don't laugh at me. I looked at the fish and thought that it should be delicious. I didn't have the time to pinch it yet, but fortunately, it wasn't pinch yet and could be sent to His Majesty. " Wang Rong said that the food Zhu Yijun sent over at noon was actually already cold and not tasty at all. Wang Rong said that he wanted to give a plate of squirrel cinnamon fish this same way because she wanted to let him know that if it gets cold, it wouldn't taste good, and he doesn't want to send it over anymore. I still have to set up an incense table to welcome him.

"If you want to eat, ask Shang Jiu laoshi to cook another dish for you." Zhu Yijun said, "What are you eating that is good for you? Just ask Shang Guan to make another serving for us, there is no need to return yours to us and send over."

"Your Majesty, give me a papaya as my reward and a jade as my reward." Wang Rong He said, "Maybe I didn't repay His Majesty enough, but I still want to repay His Majesty for his kindness."

Zhu Yijun looked at Wang Rong He, and suddenly reached out his hand to grab her left hand, "I'm really afraid of you, if we eat alone in the future, I'll send any food you think of to you, and if we eat together, you can write it down so that Shang Yu can cook for us."

Wang Rong and Qingyang smiled and nodded.

Wang Rong and Zhu Yijun looked towards the bed and immediately invited him to play a few rounds of chess. Wang Rong and Go were not bad, but Wu Zi was very bad, because when playing Go, she would think about it repeatedly, but when playing Go, she would mostly rely on her own nature and did not think much.

Thus, the two players were evenly matched. After Wang Rong and her suggestion to play a Go match, Wang Rong was defeated and said, "We've lost again."

"Again."

"I'm not coming with you." Zhu Yijun said, "Such a simple chess piece, how boring."

"Your majesty, your majesty." Wang Rong pleaded. Seeing that Zhu Yijun was still unmoved, his eyes brightened as he whispered to Zhu Yijun, "Your majesty, how about we go play chess on the bed?"

"Is the bed a place to play chess?" Zhu Yijun asked curiously.

"Wang Rong and the corners of her eyes are curved." Let's play chess with a bet on it. "

"Hmm?" Zhu Yijun was interested.

"Whoever loses takes off a piece of clothing." Wang Rong He said.

"Alright, let's see if Zitong can hold on for fifteen minutes." Zhu Yijun found it fun to listen to him. Wang Rong and Wu Ziqi's game was quite bad, they could lose several rounds in the time it took to make a cup of tea. Thinking of Wang Rong and peeling himself clean bit by bit, Zhu Yijun became somewhat interested.

Wang Rong He smiled meaningfully behind him. Your Majesty, you wouldn't have guessed that I was wearing a few sets of clothes. After taking them off, I will also play to my heart's content.

"You're being shameless. How can a hairpin be considered a piece of clothing?"

"The hairpin is my head. I can't not put on my clothes to go out, and I also have to wear my head out. How can it not be considered a set of clothes?" Wang Rong said slyly.

"If you really want to take the hairpin as a piece of clothing, then you can also do so. However you take off your clothes after losing the bet, you still need me to decide which one you want to take off." Zhu Yijun raised the conditions and Wang Rong agreed.

"Alright, you've lost. Take off your undergarment." Zhu Yijun said.

Wang Rong's face was rosy red, her hands twisting the hem of her clothes in a very awkward manner.

Zhu Yijun could not help but say, "Since you don't want to play, let's settle down."

"No, I admit defeat." Wang Rong He said as she untied the knot at the back of her neck. Then, she turned around and took out the undergarment from the front. The undergarment was embroidered with a bright red color and also had the fragrance of a young girl. Wang Rong Yun turned around, his expression was already as calm as usual. "Come again."

Zhu Yijun picked up Wang Rong's undergarment and placed it on the side. He placed it on his nose and smelled it carefully, as if a silkpants was flirting with a good girl. Playing chess with one hand, he asked, "Why is there no Lovers embroidered on your newlyweds' pockets?"

"I did." Wang Yunhe said, "Isn't this how mandarin ducks are covered by lotus leaves while they're sleeping under the lotus field?"

"Embroidery a bellyband and there's even an image drawing technique." Zhu Yijun laughed, just as he finished speaking, Wang Rongzhi lost another sentence, "Your chess game is so smelly, why are you still so happy?"

"I like it." Wang Rong He said, "Your Majesty, if you don't tell me which one you want to take off, then I'll take it off myself."
