Troubled times: Start practicing spiritual practice by taking care of your sister-in-law.

royal palace.

Zhao Yusu was wearing a purple low-cut palace dress, with her lush black hair tied into a simple ponytail. She lowered her head, looking panicked, as she trotted along the corridor with vermilion beams and pillars towards her own Glazed Palace.

After they were far away from Lanxiang Palace, Zhao Yusu slowed down, and her jogging turned into a brisk walk. Her pale face, which was filled with panic, became rosy and charming, like a sunset cloud in the sky.

Zhao Yusu didn't breathe a sigh of relief until he arrived at his own palace area.

But it was precisely because her mind was relaxed that she had the energy to pay attention to other things. Her brows were slightly furrowed, and the strange feeling of being torn apart was particularly obvious as she ran just now.

Zhao Yuxu couldn't help but stop and hold the wall beside her with her jade hands. The scene before she fell asleep last night kept flashing through her mind and couldn't be dispelled. She was frightened and a hint of shame and anger appeared in her beautiful eyes.

The shadow of Chu Yi deep in his heart gradually became blurred, and his face changed, turning into the image of Chen Mo.

Before there was any rift between Chu Yi and Zhao Yusu.

The relationship between the two is still very sweet.

Chu Yi also felt sympathy for Zhao Yusu, including matters of family ethics.

As for Chen Mo, he was like a wild beast. He had no mercy on her at all when it came to matters of family ethics and stepped on her hard.

But precisely because of this, she has this memory deeply engraved in her mind and cannot forget it.

Especially the tricks Chen Mo used, which she had never seen or heard of before, made Zhao Yusu's heart flutter and she felt inexplicably ashamed and angry.

"Noble?"

Just as Zhao Yushu was lost in thought, the maid who served her in the Liuli Palace happened to come out of the hall. When she saw Zhao Yushu, she hurried forward to greet her and asked with concern, "My dear lady, what's wrong with you?"

Seeing this, he wanted to help.

Zhao Yushu waved her hands and said nervously, "I'm fine. Go get some hot water. I'll take a shower and change clothes later."

Although Chen Mo agreed to confer the title of Concubine Liu on her, without the official imperial decree to confer the title, she was just an official without a title and could not call herself "this palace".

The maid said "yes" and went downstairs to prepare.

Soon, the hot water was ready, and steam could be seen rising from the bathtub, mixed with the fragrance of flower petals.

The palace maid wanted to come forward to serve.

But she had red marks all over her body, so she couldn't bear to do that and immediately asked the palace maid to leave.

Zhao Yuxu's purple low-cut long skirt slowly fell down along her crystal clear snow-white back. Her flawless white jade feet lightly stepped on three wooden steps and entered the bathtub. Amid the rising hot steam, a body as white as mutton-fat jade sank into the water.

Zhao Yusu held her shoulders with both hands, gently rubbing the sweat and traces left by Chen Mo on her neck.

Perhaps it was the gentle feeling of the warm water brushing against her face that made Zhao Yusu frown, then slowly relax her brows. An indescribable feeling emerged on her face and in the depths of her heart, as if she was savoring the past.

This gave Zhao Yusu a shock.

She felt extremely ashamed.

Zhao Yuxu, ah Zhao Yuxu.

It hasn't been long and you're already thinking about other men.

What's the difference between you and that person?

At the same time, I felt an inexplicable sense of guilt.

If Liang Ji knew that Zhao Yusu would have this idea, she would definitely say that you must be born to be bullied.

What kind of woman is Zhao Yusu?

If another woman made a mistake, she might regret it immediately, then start to shirk responsibility and then blame the mistake on others.

However, Zhao Yuxu took all the blame on himself.

At this moment, the female official came to the inner hall behind the pearl curtain and stopped, saying: "Your Excellency, His Majesty's imperial edict has arrived."

Zhao Yuxu came to her senses, she was shocked and surprised, then she realized that the "Princess Liu" that His Majesty had promised her must have been confirmed.

"Ask the eunuch who delivered the imperial edict to wait for a moment. I will be there soon."

A quarter of an hour later, Zhao Yusu held the imperial edict and watched Jia Yin and others leave. For a moment, he felt a little dreamy.

More than a month ago, she was the Empress of the Song Emperor.

Now, she has become Concubine Liu of the Emperor of Wei.

It can be said that more than a month ago, she had never thought about such a thing, let alone did it.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty. His Majesty really dotes on You. I heard that His Majesty did not reward the Concubine Qing and Concubine Ning who were conferred titles some time ago with jade ruyi." The palace maid congratulated her.

"They don't have any?"

Although the jade ruyi was not a valuable item, Zhao Yusu couldn't help feeling a little strange when she heard that other concubines did not have it but she did. She felt that she was valued and was delighted.

"Congratulations sister."

A voice came from a corner not far away. Zhao Yuxu looked and saw a gorgeous and graceful figure appear in his sight.

When Zhao Yusu was wondering who the other person was.

When she bumped into him before, she didn't look at him carefully.

The maidservant beside her bowed and saluted: "This servant greets Concubine Qing."

As a qualified palace maid, it is essential to remember the female masters in the harem.

Especially nowadays when there are not many mistresses in the harem.

"is her."

A name also popped up in Zhao Yushu's mind, and she bowed to Xu Yingfu: "Yushu greets sister."

"Eh."

Xu Ying smiled, and her depression in Lanxiang Palace was swept away. She walked forward and held Zhao Yushu's hand. When she saw the jade ruyi on the tray held by the palace maid next to her, she smiled and said, "Sister, you are so lucky. I don't even have this ruyi."

Zhao Yushu thought of what happened in Lanxiang Palace just now. She felt a little guilty. She didn't dare to look at Zhao Yushu's eyes and said softly, "If you like it, give it to me."

"Really?"

"How could a younger sister deceive her elder sister?"

"Sister, you are so generous." Xu Ying did not really ask for it, but raised her hand and patted the back of Zhao Yusu's hand, saying with a smile: "I am just joking. How can I accept something that His Majesty gave to my sister?"

As she spoke, Xu Ying glanced into the hall again: "Sister, why don't you invite me to sit with you? Sister ran too fast just now, and I still have something to tell her."

Zhao Yushu's expression froze slightly.

As expected, it was discovered.

Since I came out of Lanxiang Palace so early, I guess she should be able to guess what happened.

Zhao Yusu was in great confusion.

When she didn't know how to refuse, she suddenly thought of something and said quickly, "Yu Shu just promised Sister Lan Fei to go with her to Weiyang Palace to pay respects to the Empress. It's getting late now, what do you think, Sister?"

"What a coincidence! I was planning to pay my respects to the Queen Mother after leaving your place, so let's go together." Xu Ying pretended to be surprised.

Zhao Yuxu was not Liang Ji, so she felt embarrassed to refuse and agreed.

The two girls first went to Lanxiang Palace, and after meeting Liang Ji, the three of them went to Weiyang Palace.

Of course, during this period, Liang Ji said a lot of unpleasant things to Xu Ying, but Xu Ying just laughed it off. …

Weiyang Palace.

After Chen Mo finished the morning court, he accompanied Wu Mi for breakfast. Chen Jia, Yi Shiyan and Chu Ran were also there.

Chen Jia looked at Yi Shiyan and Chu Ran's big bellies with her eyes, and then said innocently, "Mother, are Concubine Shu and Concubine Jing both pregnant with Father's children?"

Chen Jia is almost three years old. He has read some books recently. Although they are all very rough things, he has started to think about things.

Although what I think is still very shallow.

Yi Shiyan and Chu Ran blushed and almost choked. They coughed softly but didn't say anything.

"Yes, Jiaer will have younger brothers and sisters in the future." Wu Mi touched Chen Jia's head and said with a smile.

"Oh." Chen Jia said "Oh". Although he was happy, he was not as happy as when Han Anniang gave birth to Chen Zhong and learned that he had a younger brother.

"Jiaer, hurry up and go to class after eating." Chen Mo played the role of a strict father.

"Yeah." Chen Jia nodded, still very obedient.

"Your Majesty, the Queen. Concubine Lan, Concubine Qing, Concubine Liu and others have arrived, saying they are here to pay their respects to the Queen." At this time, a female official walked into the hall and said to Chen Mo and Wu Mi.

"Let them in." Wu Mi said.

"promise."

After a while, Liang Ji, Xu Ying and Zhao Yusu came in together.

Liang Ji disliked Xu Ying, but she also considered the situation, so she didn't make things difficult for her. The three of them saluted Chen Mo and Wu Mi together.

"We are all family, why should we be so polite? You come here so early, and you haven't had breakfast yet. Come and eat something. Someone, bring three pairs of bowls and chopsticks." Wu Mi's face, as white as snow, was graceful and dignified.

"Thank you, Queen." The three women said in unison. After they came up and sat down, they greeted Yi Shiyan and Chu Ran.

Yi Shiyan and Chu Ran responded with a smile. Before the three of them arrived, Yi Shiyan had asked who the newly appointed Concubine Liu was.

When they learned that it was Queen Zhao of the previous dynasty, they and Chu Ran were surprised for a while.

But at this moment, I have already digested this matter.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I am full and will go to the academy now." After finishing his meal, Chen Jia took the towel on the table, wiped his mouth, and stood up.

Xu Ying was very good at finding a sense of presence, and she immediately smiled and said, "Your Majesty, this must be the Crown Prince."

Xu Ying seldom came to the Weiyang Palace.

Chen Mo nodded: "Jiaer, hurry up and call someone."

"Jiaer greets Concubine Qing, Concubine Lan, and Concubine Liu." Chen Jia called out one by one at Wu Mi's prompt.

Xu Ying and Liang Ji didn't think anything of it and laughed happily. Only Zhao Yusu was a little reserved and even a little nervous.

After all, the prince's status is noble and above her.

After Chen Jia left, Xu Ying smiled again and said, "Your Majesty, the Crown Prince is so well behaved."

"Mi'er taught well."

Chen Mo glanced at Xu Ying, Liang Ji, and Zhao Yusu, then looked at Wu Mi, his mind moved.

Although the four girls were all wearing palace skirts, their colors were different and their temperaments were very different, in addition to their respective identities.

If Yi Shiyan and Chu Ran were not there, Chen Mo would have been in a state of utter ridiculousness so early in the morning.

But Chen Mo did not take any action, but someone else had an idea.

While Chen Mo was eating breakfast, he suddenly felt an itch on his calf, as if something was rubbing against him. He looked down and found a white little foot stretched out on his leg.

With his perception, he quickly discovered that the little foot belonged to Xu Ying.

The table was not big and Xu Ying had long legs, so even though she was sitting opposite Chen Mo, it was not difficult at all.

"When did Concubine Qing become so bold?" Chen Mo said nothing, sitting upright and signaling Xu Ying with his eyes.

But Xu Ying not only did not restrain herself, but became even more aggressive and continued to provoke Chen Mohuo.

The imperial palace is not the Bronze Sparrow Garden, and Xu Ying has more opportunities to contact Chen Mo. During this time, she has also come to understand Chen Mo's temperament and knows that her behavior will not anger Chen Mo.

Although Wu Mi was sitting next to Chen Mo, she hardly looked down. She was only a low-level warrior with weak perception. In addition, there was no significant change in the expressions of Chen Mo and Xu Ying, so she did not notice.

Liang Ji discovered that she was a fourth-rank warrior and was sitting on Xu Ying's left hand side. The moment she discovered it, her eyebrows were all frowned, and she was extremely shocked. She secretly spat: "This vixen is so shameless."

But she didn't say it on the spot as it would be too direct. Instead, she said "Oops", and the chopsticks in her hand accidentally fell to the ground, then she bent down to pick them up.

This move naturally attracted some attention.

However, Xu Ying was also an extraordinary person. She was one step faster than Liang Ji and pulled her foot back. When she was about to put on her shoes, she found that the shoe on her left foot was missing.

It turned out that when Liang Ji saw that she had failed to catch Xu Ying, she kicked her shoe to the other side the next second after she retracted her left foot.

And this just happened to fall right under Wu Mi's feet.

Wu Mi was slightly moved, looked down, and asked in surprise: "Whose shoes are these?"

Wu Mi's words attracted the attention of Yi Shiyan and Chu Ran who were sitting next to him.

Chen Mo, however, had a calm expression on his face.

Xu Ying knew immediately that it was Liang Ji who did it. She knew that she couldn't hide it. After all, who was not wearing shoes? They looked down at each other and knew it at a glance. She blushed and said, "Empress, is it mine?"

Before Wu Mi opened his mouth, Liang Ji couldn't help but gloat over her misfortune and said, "Sister Qingpin, how did your shoes end up under the Queen's feet? Aren't you wearing any shoes?"

Typical case of the thief crying thief.

Xu Ying: "..."

Her face turned even redder, spreading from her cheeks to her neck.

Xu Ying whispered: "My feet were itchy, so I took off my shoes and rubbed them, but I accidentally kicked the shoes over."

"Oh."

Wu Mi didn't think much about it and kicked the shoes back to Xu Ying.

Liang Ji said unmercifully, "We are having breakfast now. Your behavior is not very elegant."

"Sister Lan Fei, I know I was wrong." Xu Ying said, biting her lip.

Liang Ji was so happy that she wanted to say something.

Chen Mo coughed lightly, tried to smooth things over, changed the subject, looked at Zhao Yusu and said, "You have received the imperial edict, right?"

Zhao Yushu nodded gently: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

"We are a family from now on, so we should avoid some etiquette if possible." Chen Mo said, "The two elders are still in the capital, right?"

"Your Majesty, they are staying at the Fuze Restaurant in the south of the city," said Zhao Yusu.

"Then call them into the palace so I can meet them." Chen Mo said.

"Ah."
