Queen is fearless

Chapter 140 Grace
After Jiang Xiuyi left, Hongxiu walked in from outside the hall and reported to Gu Jinzhi what happened in the imperial garden.

"At that time, it looked stable, but it's only been a few days, so that's it?" After hearing Hongxiu's words, Gu Jinzhi shook his head with a smile.

"Master, who do you plan to let go to the palace this time?" Qingluan stood aside and asked.

"Concubine Dong must take it with her. As for the others...the three newcomers to the palace, they must take them with them. For the old people in the harem, just pick one or two, that's all."

After thinking about it, Gu Jinzhi replied that she had already made up her mind that she would give Concubine Dong a big gift when she went to the palace this time.

In the evening, when Zhou Jing came back, Gu Jinzhi talked about the day's events.

"I have promised Jiang Xiuyi to let her mother enter the palace and stay in the palace for one night."

As for matters in the harem, she, the queen, can decide, but she is used to telling the emperor again.

"Just do as Jinzhi said, I will follow you in matters in the harem." After hearing Gu Jinzhi finish speaking, Zhou Jing held her hand and said with a smile.

"I have also booked the candidates for the palace. Concubine Dong's years with the emperor are not too short, so naturally I have to take it with me."

"Besides, Jiang Xiuyi stayed in the palace, and the status of the two of them is different. If I hand over the affairs of the harem to Jiang Xiuyi, but not to Concubine Dong, it is inevitable that she has some ideas."

"If you go to the palace with me, it will be nothing. Apart from her, the three newcomers to the palace will also bring them with them. If the emperor is in a good mood, everyone will be blessed."

When he said this, Gu Jinzhi squinted at Zhou Jing with his eyes, making him laugh for a while.

"I heard that two days ago, Dianzhong Shengxin got a batch of old vinegar. Unexpectedly, the power of that old vinegar is quite powerful. I can smell it in Fengyang Palace."

When he said this, Gu Jinzhi stretched out his hand and tapped him on the shoulder, "The emperor will cancel me."

"How can you make fun of it? Did you say that you overturned the jealousy? You know the cause and effect of this draft. If it is not necessary, I will not let them enter the palace."

"For now, let's put it aside, you can take it with you when you travel, but I have no other ideas."

In the past, Zhou Jing had seen the portraits of the three new concubines, but he had only seen them, and he didn't have any thoughts.

Now when Gu Jinzhi talked about it, he was so jealous that he found it funny, so he couldn't help but make fun of it.

"Apart from the four of them? Is there anyone else?" Changing the subject, Zhou Jing asked.

"There are two more, the time of entering the palace is not short, the status is not too high, and some favors should be given."

Nodding his head, Gu Jinzhi couldn't see what he meant, but since he changed the subject, he just cooperated.

"Well, let's do as you said. Before sending people to the palaces to say something, I also went to the palace to inform them, so that they can all prepare."

Since he was going out of the palace to escape the summer heat, it was impossible to come back in three or two days, so there were quite a lot of things to prepare.

After listening to Zhou Jing's words, Gu Jinzhi responded, and will send people to various palaces to inform them tomorrow.

"Other than that, I'm wondering if it's Jiang Xiuyi's position in Jin Yi Jin?"

"It stands to reason that I should take her with me, but she took the initiative to ask Ying to stay and help me take care of the harem. She usually holds palace banquets and manages the harem. She also helps me share my worries."

Gu Jinzhi wanted to talk about this matter before, but he didn't find the right opportunity.

It's appropriate to borrow this time.

"Then the first promotion point, from Xiuyi to Shuhua?" Zhou Jing thought for a while, although Jiang Xiuyi was in the harem and helped the queen a lot.

But her mother's family's performance in the court was not obvious, except that they had been in the palace for a long time, and there was nothing special about it.

It was already considered a grace to be promoted to Xiuyi before, but now that he is promoted again, it is almost the same.

"I think that both left and right are promoted. She may not have many chances to be promoted in the future. Now that Mrs. Jiang is the lord of the first palace, it is not too late to give some grace."

"Since the third rank is also Jin, and the third rank is also a seal, it is not as good as Jin is Zhaohua. In this way, she helps me take care of the harem, and it is more in line with my status."

There are not many beauties in the harem, and even fewer high-ranking ones. Newcomers to the palace can even reach the position of Xiuyuan, let alone the old people in the palace?

"According to the Queen's order, I will be promoted to be the third-rank Zhaohua." How could Zhou Jing not know that Gu Jinzhi was biased towards the Jiang family.

It's just a position, it's nothing, besides, if you are a concubine of the third rank or above, you are eligible to be the lord of the first palace, and you are the lord no matter what, so there is no need to worry too much about the position.

Although the Jiang family is inconspicuous in the court, they have been well-behaved all these years, and there is nothing wrong with it. Let's take it as some kindness to the Jiang family.

"Yes." Gu Jinzhi replied again, she understood that the emperor had seen her intention clearly, but she was not worried about anything.

What she did was just human nature...

The two finished their business, had dinner as usual, and went out for a walk together.

When passing by the path, Gu Jinzhi smiled and talked to Zhou Jing, Zhou Jing responded, but from the corner of his eye, he glanced at the bushes beside him.

At this time, among the bushes, Concubine Lian, who had just entered the palace, and the palace servants around her squatted on the ground and hid in the bushes.

Seeing the emperor and the queen walking past, he patted his chest and breathed a sigh of relief.

"My lord, why are we hiding?" the little palace maid asked with a puzzled expression on her face, letting Concubine Lian drag her up, and walked towards another path.

"Of course we have to hide. That's the emperor and the empress. If the empress is here, I will rush forward. Isn't it courting death?"

As early as outside the palace, she had heard that the emperor favored the empress only. At that time, she was thinking that it would be difficult for a woman to be favored by the emperor alone.

During the draft, she never looked up, so she didn't know what the queen looked like.

When I first entered the palace, even though I became a concubine, I haven't had a chance to greet the empress until now.

Until today, when she finally saw the empress, she was astonished. No wonder the emperor favored him alone. With such looks, even a woman could feel her heart flutter.

When she said this, the little palace maid nodded half-understanding, followed her along the path, and returned to the Yichun Pavilion.

"What was the emperor looking at just now?" Zhou Jing felt it, and Gu Jinzhi felt it too.

The other party is still acquainted, and he didn't show up at this time.

"It's nothing. I saw the flowers and trees on the side of the road blooming very well. When we get to the palace, I will show you more beautiful flowers."

The scenery in the palace is better than that in the palace, especially those lotus places, Jinzhi will definitely like it.

Thinking of the lotus, Zhou Jing couldn't help but think of what happened when the two of them were boating on the lake before. For a while, their stomachs became hot.

Turning her head to look at Gu Jinzhi, although she was only dressed up simply, she was still charming, so she simply pulled her, hugged her in her arms, and strode back towards Fengyang Palace...
