Abandoned Concubine's Promotion

Chapter 68 Offending
Concubine Rong's little move was noticed by Empress Xiao, she sneered in her heart, and then said with a smile, "Then I have to congratulate Concubine Rong, your second brother has made great achievements, presumably it is indispensable to be promoted of."

"Thank you, Ma'am, we are all happy together." Concubine Rong looked at Empress Xiao with a smile on her face.

"I remember that Chen Jieyu's elder brother seems to be in the northwest. I don't know if Chen Jieyu's elder brother made any contribution to this incident?"

Not wanting to make Concubine Rong so happy, Empress Xiao cast her eyes on Su Qingyan and asked with a smile.

Originally, Su Qingyan was quietly listening to the queen and concubine's comings and goings, but when the queen suddenly mentioned her brother, Su Qingyan couldn't help being a little dazed.

"I don't know what the Empress said." It took only a moment for Su Qingyan to realize that she stood up and saluted Empress Xiao.

"It's okay, if there is a happy event, it won't take long before you know about it."

Although the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, if there is any happy event in the family, you can still know about it.

Concubine Rong didn't expect that Empress Xiao would suddenly bring Su Qingyan into it. She glanced at Su Qingyan, and seeing her respectful attitude and a little bit of confusion, she understood that she really didn't know.

"I didn't expect that Chen Jieyu's elder brother was also in the northwest, and maybe he was under the second elder brother's subordinate. If so, he must have a share of the credit for this time."

Concubine Rong knew that Empress Xiao just wanted to make her unhappy, but she just didn't want Empress Xiao to get what she wanted.

Hearing what Concubine Rong said, Su Qingyan sighed secretly in her heart, she was so innocent that she was involved.

"My concubine's elder brother has wished to serve the country since he was a child. If he can really make meritorious service, his elder brother's wish will come true." Seeing Concubine Rong being blessed, Su Qingyan said with a smile.

At this time, she didn't dare to answer Concubine Rong's words, even if her elder brother was really under the hands of Concubine Rong's second brother, she would not accept such words.

Although this might make Concubine Rong unhappy, in the end, the other one is the empress, and she cannot be offended.

After hearing Su Qingyan's words, Concubine Rong looked at her with a bit of coolness, but it was the queen who smiled and beckoned Su Qingyan to sit down again.

"It's getting late, if it's getting hotter today, I won't keep you guys anymore, let's go."

Empress Xiao was very satisfied with Su Qingyan's reaction. Seeing that the time was almost up, she smiled and ended the morning greetings.

As soon as she sat down, she heard the Queen's voice again. Su Qingyan stood up with everyone, saluted the Queen, and then retreated.

After leaving Qifeng Palace, Su Qingyan followed all the concubines and waited for the high-ranking concubines to leave first. Concubine Rong sat on the sedan chair and looked at Su Qingyan who bowed her head in salute, with a sneer on her lips, " Now Chen Jieyu is getting better at talking, but I don't know how long this mouth can talk in the harem?"

After finishing speaking, Concubine Rong didn't look at Su Qingyan's reaction, raised her hand, and ordered the sedan chair to return to Yichun Palace.

When Concubine Rong left, everyone looked at Su Qingyan with more or less gloating eyes, but Su Qingyan didn't care. After all, at the moment, it is better to offend Concubine Rong than to offend the Queen.

In fact, she was also uncertain, after all, she didn't know if her elder brother was under Concubine Rong's second elder brother's subordinate, if that was the case, she might cause trouble for her elder brother.

…………

Emperor Jing didn't know about Su Qingyan's troubles, and after leaving court, he went directly to the imperial study.

Northwest Pingding, Emperor Jing was in a very good mood at this time. After arriving at the imperial study, he directly ordered Kang Ninghai to send someone to send a lot of rewards to Concubine Rong's Yichun Palace.

After all, it was Concubine Rong's elder brother who made the first contribution this time. Apart from rewarding the Shen family, Concubine Shen's side is also indispensable.

"I didn't expect that Chen Jieyu's elder brother was also in the northwest and made great contributions." This time, apart from Concubine Rong's elder brother, another person who made great contributions to the pacification of the northwest was Su Qingyan's elder brother.

Although Su Qingyan's elder brother is not a high official in the army, but without him this time, he would not be able to win so easily, so for him, Emperor Jing also wanted to reward him.

"Your Majesty, what about Chen Jieyu..." Hearing what Emperor Jing said, Kang Ninghai opened his mouth tentatively. According to the emperor's love for Chen Jieyu, since he rewarded Concubine Rong, Chen Jieyu probably wouldn't be able to fall here.

"Wait for me to think about it again. You should take someone to send rewards to Concubine Rong."

Hearing Kang Ninghai's question, Emperor Jing was silent for a moment, and then he opened his mouth. Kang Ninghai responded, and then retreated.

After leaving the imperial study room, Kang Ninghai couldn't help muttering in his heart when he thought of what Emperor Jing said just now, he reckoned that the emperor was going to give Chen Jieyu a big reward, otherwise, why didn't he say it now?
…………

Concubine Rong received the reward, and the entire harem soon knew about it. Su Qingyan sat on the soft couch, seeing that she hadn't sent a reward, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

From this point of view, my elder brother should not be under Concubine Rong's second brother's command, so I don't have to worry about offending Concubine Rong before, which will cause trouble for my elder brother.

"Master seems to have something on his mind?" Zitan came in from outside the house, carrying the medicinal meal that Nanny Jin had just cooked, and seeing that Su Qingyan seemed to be thinking about something, she asked.

"It's okay, just a little sleepy." Su Qingyan was still sore all over after all the tossing last night. She reckoned that she should be able to sleep a little longer after taking a nap today.

"Nurse Jin is preparing a medicated bath for you. After you finish eating the medicated food, take a bath, and you will feel much better."

Zitan blushed and said, she naturally knew why her master was sore all over.

"Alright." Nodding her head, Su Qingyan took the bowl and ate the medicinal food in small mouthfuls.

Because she didn't receive the reward, Su Qingyan thought that her brother hadn't done any meritorious deeds. Although she felt regretful, she felt much more at ease when she thought that her brother was still young and would make meritorious deeds sooner or later.

…………

In Yichun Palace, Concubine Rong looked at the rewards on the table, her face was full of smiles, her second elder brother made great contributions, not to mention how honorable her mother's family was in the previous dynasty, even she was in the harem. Very face.

According to the previous rules, during this period of time, the emperor will often come to Yichun Palace, she should think of ways to use this opportunity to conceive a child.

Thinking of this, Concubine Rong turned her head to look at Hongxiu beside her, beckoned her to come to her, and whispered a few words.

After Concubine Rong finished her orders, Hong Xiu responded, blessed her body, and then retreated.

Looking at Hongxiu's back, Concubine Rong stretched out her hand to touch her lower abdomen, a smile appeared on her lips...

　Thank you for voting for Meng every day, and for those who give rewards, thank you for your support.
