Jinghe Palace.

Before Mingyan even stepped into the palace gate, she had already seen the palace filled with flowers, and a hint of helplessness flashed across her face.

Since ten years ago, the originally magnificent Jinghe Palace began to change for unknown reasons, and then gradually became the flashy appearance it is today, with flowers and flowers everywhere, even next to the plaque that says "Jinghe Palace" They all decorated it with flowers.

At first, Mingyan thought that Jing Zhaorong was up to something, but she lurked secretly for several days, but could not detect any conspiracy.

Rather than saying that Jing Zhaorong's palace has changed, it is better to say that Jing Zhaorong has changed.

Jing Zhaorong used to despise such flashy flowers. Because she was the treasure of her arch-enemy Concubine Qin, she had always looked down upon herself.

But I don’t know when, Jing Zhaorong also asked her servants to decorate the courtyard of Jinghe Palace. She sent people to add some from time to time, and now it has become a prosperous courtyard comparable to a flower garden. Moreover, regardless of whether Emperor Shunhe was present or not, Jing Zhaorong treated herself much more gently than before, and would also call her name affectionately.

Weird, really weird.

So no matter how much she wanted to get to the bottom of the matter, Mingyan found it difficult to continue the investigation when she saw this scene.

Mingyan even had the desire to turn around and leave.

But it was obviously too late at this moment - the maid in Jinghe Palace saw Mingyan, her face was filled with joy, and she walked towards her body slowly, and then used a voice that was silent, but could make the maids nearby The voice that could be heard clearly said: "See Your Highness the Princess!"

Because of the palace maid's voice, the surrounding palace maids naturally discovered Mingyan's traces, and one after another said: "See your highness, Princess!!!"

It would be strange if this movement didn’t attract Jing Zhaorong! The ladies in Jinghe Palace are really as strange as Jing Zhaorong.

Sure enough, Mingyan soon saw Jing Zhaorong's personal maid hurriedly approaching.

She raised her hand: "Linglong, Linglang, let's go!"

There is no need to dodge here! Shouldn't it be them who came to challenge Jing Zhaorong today?

Seeing Mingyan running over, the maid quickly ran back to report the news.

The moment Mingyan stepped into the palace, she clearly heard a female voice coming into her ears——

"Ah, isn't this Your Highness the Princess? What a rare visitor!"

Mingyan suddenly had goosebumps all over her body - indeed, no matter how long it had been since she last saw her, Jing Zhaorong could still make her frightened in the same way!

"Seeing Empress Jing Zhaorong, Yan'er came to visit rashly. I know I am a little presumptuous, and I hope Empress Jing Zhaorong will forgive me."

A dignified smile immediately appeared on Mingyan's face, and her every move was full of nobility.

"Why did Yan'er say this to me?" Jing Zhaorong covered her mouth with a pink and white handkerchief and said with a pretentious smile, "Yan'er is willing to come to my Jinghe Palace. I don't know how happy I am. Oh! How can we complain?"

Jing Zhaorong pulled Mingyan to sit down with a warm look on her face, her armor gently rubbed against Mingyan's weak and boneless hands, and said with a smile: "Long time no see again, Yan'er looks beautiful again, this short In ten years, Yan'er has gone from being innocent and cute to the slender beauty she is now. Why did Yan'er come to my Jinghe Palace this time? You must talk to me carefully about it."

Seeing that she had asked this question, Mingyan stopped beating around the bush and said directly:

"Yan'er dares to ask Empress Jing Zhaorong whether the marriage between the second emperor brother and the second young lady of the Dongfang family was brokered by her alone?"

There was obvious surprise on Jing Zhaorong's face, and she said straightforwardly: "It's me. When the emperor came here to look for me a few days ago, he talked to me about his second son's marriage. The emperor also asked me to get married. I have chosen the most satisfactory one among the rich ladies in the capital. After much consideration, I still feel that the second young lady from the Dongfang family is the most intelligent and smart, and is a perfect match for the second child."

Jing Zhaorong picked up the tea cup in front of her, put it to her mouth, took a slow sip, then looked at Mingyan in front of her again, with a smiling face again, and said:

"The emperor came to this palace again a few days ago, and I mentioned this matter to the emperor. After hearing this, the emperor was extremely satisfied, so he also decided to get married." Jing Zhao Rong covered his mouth and said with a smile, "Isn't that right? The emperor also gave me some beautiful things to reward me for this matter."

Mingyan followed her line of sight and saw that there were indeed some strange hair accessories placed on the dressing table inside.

"Have you ever asked the Second Emperor and Second Miss Dongfang about their wishes?"

Mingyan frowned and asked.

"Never." Jing Zhaorong turned to look at Mingyan, and then said, "The parents' orders and the matchmaker's words are the most important thing in a marriage. Why do I need to ask for my opinion? In a few days, I will directly Just send the betrothal gift to Dongfang's family. A few days ago, the palace asked Er Er's biological mother, and she agreed. Previously, I sent someone to test Er Er's tone and found that he didn't have much desire for marriage. I’m sure he won’t resist.”

Mingyan's brows furrowed even more tightly. She looked at Jing Zhaorong in front of her with a lump in her throat. She stretched out her hand, pushed away the cup filled with hot tea in front of her, and said softly:

"I understand, then I will not disturb Empress Jing Zhaorong, and I will leave first."

Mingyan didn't wait for Jing Zhaorong to answer her, she glanced at Linglong and Linglang, and then the master and servant left.

Ping Yu, the personal maid next to Jing Zhaorong, came over, looked at her master with a worried look, and said in confusion:

"Mother, what is the purpose of Your Highness coming here today?"

Jing Zhaorong glanced at Pingyu with a smile and said: "You still don't understand, our princess is very smart. Didn't the Emperor say that the Queen Mother will have full authority to handle the betrothal gift? I guess that the Queen Mother probably found this person. You must be a smart and courageous princess."

Pingyu sighed, and then said: "But your Majesty, my servant is also full of confusion. Although the Second Miss Dongfang is also well-read in poetry and books, her talents and virtues are extremely matched with His Highness the Second Prince. But if His Highness the Second Prince is really like Second Dongfang, If the young lady gets married, can the emperor really tolerate the second young lady Dongfang as a female official?"

Jing Zhaorong said: "Pingyu, although the emperor has good moral character and will not do things like killing all important officials in the court because he is afraid of them, but if the two of them appear in the officialdom at the same time, they will definitely cause dissatisfaction among the officials."

Pingyu suddenly woke up after hearing Jing Zhaorong's words.

"So the empress is here for Your Highness..."

"Pingyu, be careful. There are certain things you shouldn't say in the palace, especially now that the position of Crown Prince is still vacant."

Queen Pingyu covered her mouth in fear and nodded repeatedly.

Jing Zhaorong sighed again and said: "Actually, I still want to know what kind of attitude the emperor holds towards this princess..." (End of Chapter)
