Chunman Palace

Chapter 26
The sky was hazy, and he could hear the sound beside the bed. Lin Qingyu half-opened his eyes to check, and saw a black color flickering in front of his eyes, and then his forehead was covered with a soft feeling, but he really didn't have the strength to pull himself together, and fell asleep drowsily again past.

After an unknown amount of time, a voice brought her back from the dream to reality.

"My lord, my lord, wake up quickly. It's time to greet the empress today." Mo'er prepared the washing utensils and breakfast, and urged Lin Qingyu to get up.

Mo'er's words were like a basin of cold water waking her up.

yes.She was going to pay her respects to the queen today, she shook her head, trying to wake herself up from the daze.

She was so sore all over, as if her bones were broken last night, she stood up with support, and after a long time of deliberation, she regained her energy, and ordered Mo'er to wash and change her clothes.

Every new concubine needs to meet the queen after her first marriage.

This is respect for the head of the harem, and it is also a necessary etiquette, which means that the concubine will not overstep and forget her identity.

In Fengyi Palace, all the concubines arrived as early as possible, and the empress has already begun to teach the concubines how to be diligent and thrifty.

Hearing voices in the house, Lin Qingyu hurried over and said: "My concubine pays her respects to the empress."

The queen smiled: "Lin promises to get up quickly."

As soon as Lin Qingyu took her seat, she heard Concubine Min say sourly: "Hey, why did Lin promise to come so late? I forgot all the rules when I first got the holy favor. Empress, how do you think Lin promises to be punished?"

The queen looked up, but did not speak first.

Mu Pingting argued for the others: "Empress, it seems that Lin Xu is not late at this time."

Concubine Min had a smile on her lips: "Did a noble person forget his dignity after being favored for a while? I am talking to the empress, when will it be your turn to defend Lin Xu? You have always been friends with Lin Xu, why don't you?" Jiaojiaolin agrees to the rules?"

Originally, Lin promised to use that streamer dance without saying a word to get favored yesterday, which made her very unhappy, but today she has to express her anger at everything!She deliberately composed that dance and gave it to Linglefang. Lin promised to use the dance to be favored, so she should be disciplined again.

What's more, as the lord of the first palace, she just wanted to suppress the arrogance of these newcomers and build up her own prestige.

very fair.

Mu Pingting changed her previous weak and unyielding expression: "Miss Concubine Min, I only ask for a word of reason in everything. Lin promised and did not come too late, why did she ask the empress to punish her?"

Concubine Min saw that he refused to accept discipline, put down the cup heavily, and glared at him.

This is clearly disobedience to discipline, extremely bad.

The rest of the concubines cast their gazes as if they were watching a play.

Concubine Ji joked with some malicious intentions: "Look, these are the sisters. My good sister is competing for favor at the emperor's birthday banquet. Not only does she not mind, she even defends it in every possible way."

Concubine Min had a mocking look on her face: "What, you actually allowed your good sister to seduce the emperor under your nose, and now you're pretending to be so magnanimous."

Mu Pingting calmly said: "Isn't Concubine Min ever had any sisters? You must have misunderstood. Lin and I promised to be sisters, so I naturally don't care about these things. After all, we are one and one mind, and I think the empress has no sisters. Probably don't understand this."

Concubine Min was stunned for a moment as if being shocked by an electric shock, then said angrily: "Presumptuous, how dare you mock me!"

Seeing Mu Pingting speak for herself like this, Lin Qingyu couldn't help feeling guilty.

She finally couldn't help but said: "Miss Concubine Min, everything is my fault, I hope you don't blame elder sister!"

"Okay!" The queen couldn't bear to watch this farce, and tapped the table with her fingers.

All the concubines said: "Queen Empress, calm down!"

"The most taboo thing in the harem is jealousy, and the concubines and concubines must live in harmony to make the harem peaceful. The harem is restless. How can I appease my anger?" The queen sighed leisurely, looked at Concubine Min with a frown and said, "Concubine Min, next time Don't make such a fuss this time, otherwise I won't tolerate it anymore."

Concubine Min laughed, and said unrelentingly: "The empress, what should I do if Lin promised to be late, and Mrs. Jin's words are offensive?"

"Since it's the first offender, I don't want to pursue it too much. Each of them will be fined for two months as a punishment." The queen put her hand on her forehead, her body was shaking, and said in a low voice, "Let's all go back to the palace."

Shu Xiang supported the queen, and said with concern: "Your Majesty, you are too tired. This servant will help you go back and rest."

Mu Pingting's footsteps were a little hurried, and Lin Qingyu followed her closely. At the corner, she stopped suddenly and turned her head to look behind her.

Lin Qingyu frowned deeply, and whispered, "Did sister blame me..."

"How come, don't think too much about it." There was nothing strange in her voice.

Lin Qingyu met her lonely gaze, and asked again: "Then sister, you must have hatred in your heart, right?"

hatred?I can't even say the word.It's just that she really didn't understand why Lin Qingyu did that at the birthday banquet, even if she told her in advance, she wouldn't feel so disappointed.

But she still laughed and said softly: "They are all sisters, why do you think so? Besides, there is no difference between my sister's favor and mine's favor."

Lin Qingyu's eyes sparkled with emotion, and he smiled wryly: "Sister, don't blame me. My sister's family is difficult, so I can only use this method to get favor. These days, my sister is preparing for this matter, so I forgot about it. My sister originally wanted to tell My sister, but I don't have time."

Mo'er also echoed: "Yes, Mr. Jin, our little master practiced dancing day and night, he was tired during the day, and fell asleep without even having dinner at night, so the little master almost fell into a trance during those days. "

But even if she is busy and tired, there is always time to ask the maids around her to pass on a message. If she says no, she will definitely not believe it.

But she didn't want to bother about it, so she changed the subject and said with concern: "Since my sister's family is struggling, how can she support her family now that she has been fined a monthly salary? There must be a way."

Lin Qingyu said without hesitation: "Thank you for your concern, my sister still has some jewels from the emperor. My sister wants to entrust someone to hand them over to my father outside the palace."

"My sister is confused!" Mu Pingting frowned, stretched her fingers to silence, looked around again, and said with a sigh of relief: "Sister, I don't know how dangerous what you said just now? You can't send out things that are rewarded by the royal family." , This is against the palace rules."

"My sister didn't think of this level...how can I do it?"

An anxious expression appeared on Lin Qingyu's face.

Mu Pingting ordered the people around her: "Huayue, go and give Lin a promise to wrap 50 taels of silver in the jewelry drawer in my palace."

Lin Qingyu immediately waved her hand and refused: "No, my sister has already been fined a monthly salary for helping me, how can I ask for my sister's money again!"

Originally, both of them were fined monthly salary, but Mu Pingting had to use her own body to help her, she couldn't bear it.

Mu Pingting showed her face and smiled, then patted her hand, and said comfortingly: "Don't worry, I still have some money in the palace, and the daily expenses are not too much."

Her heart was filled with emotion, like a delicate flower beaten by Ren Yu, she choked up and said:
"My sister's kindness, Qingyu can't repay...!"
