Fengming Chen Palace

Chapter 10
"Director Lu, do we still need to go to Chengqian Palace today?" The little eunuch walked in from outside the respect room and saluted the chief eunuch Lu Youwei.

Hearing the little eunuch's question, Lu Youwei glanced at him, "Where are you going? Didn't the emperor invite Su Wanrong to eat?"

"By the way, go find Su Wanrong's signboard and put it back in its original place." Before that, Yihua Palace sent someone to let Su Wanrong's signboard down, and Lu Youwei did as he did.

Now that he heard that the emperor invited Su Wanrong to have a meal, Lu Youwei naturally would not listen to Yihua Palace anymore.

Having received the order, the little eunuch responded and walked towards the inner room. Lu Youwei sat on the chair, secretly thankful that the emperor was busy with his affairs recently, so he didn't have time to turn over the cards.

If when turning over the signboard, he notices that Su Wanrong's signboard is not there, he will ask a few questions.

…………

Su Qingning didn't know what happened in the respect room, the soft sedan dropped off, and Su Qingning entered Chengqian Palace under the leadership of the palace servants.

The emperor seemed to be busy, so he was not there. After a few instructions from the palace servants, he left the palace.

Su Qingning looked at everything in the main hall, and had to say, after all, it was the place where the emperor lived, but it was different. Compared with his Nongyu Xiaozhu, it was like a golden nest, a dog's nest.

Finding a chair, Su Qingning sat down. After waking up, she hadn't drank any water yet. She was a little thirsty right now.

Glancing towards the door, Su Qingning got up, looking for some water to drink.

The main hall of Chengqian Palace is very large. Occasionally, the emperor would discuss matters with his courtiers in the main hall.

After searching around, Su Qingning couldn't find a place to put the teapot and water cups. She saw an entrance, so she boldly walked in along the entrance.

This is the apse, which is divided into an outer room and an inner room. The layout looks somewhat similar to Nongyu Xiaozhu.

Su Qingning didn't go to the inner room, she saw the teapot and water cups on the table in the outer room, she took a few steps and came to the table.

At this moment, Emperor Chen entered the main hall. He knew that Su Qingning had arrived, but after entering the main hall, he did not see her.

Frowning slightly, Emperor Chen heard a faint voice coming from the apse, he lightened his steps and walked towards the apse.

Su Qingning was indeed thirsty, she drank two glasses of water in a row, and then slowly drank the third cup, she didn't know that Emperor Chen had returned and entered the apse.

Looking at Su Qingning who was drinking water at the table, Emperor Chen's brows stretched, interest flashed in his eyes, it was the first time he saw a concubine dare to enter the apse without authorization.

Seemingly noticing someone, Su Qingning turned her head and looked towards Emperor Chen. She was still holding a water glass in her hand. Seeing Emperor Chen, Su Qingning was startled.

"Hi..." Putting down the water glass, Su Qingning wanted to apologize, but before she knelt down, a full hiccup came out.

Just now, I drank two glasses of water at once, and I drank it in a hurry. It's normal to hiccup, but this full hiccup made Su Qingning wish to find a crack in the ground and sneak in.

She felt that fate really liked to play jokes on her. When she saw the emperor last time, she farted accidentally. This time it was a hiccup. disrespectful.

"Puff...cough cough..." Su Qingning knelt on the ground, feeling annoyed, when she heard the emperor's sneer, accompanied by the emperor's cover-up cough.

"Please forgive me, Your Majesty, this concubine is really thirsty, so... that's why I came to the apse without authorization, and... I offended the Emperor." I was relieved in my heart, and the Emperor could laugh, which meant that he was not angry.

On this point, Su Qingning guessed correctly, the emperor was indeed not angry, he just found it funny, because this was the second time she had made a fool of herself in front of him.

The concubines in the harem, in order to get his favor, competed to present their best side in front of him, only she made a fool of herself in front of him again and again.

It's so cute...

"My concubine, get up." Taking a few steps forward, Emperor Chen helped Su Qingning up, "It's all human nature, I don't blame you."

While talking, the emperor took Su Qingning's hand and walked out from the apse.

Zhou Chengren had already returned, and the dinner was on the table. Su Qingning sat at the table with the emperor.

"Next time I will ask someone to put a teapot and a water cup in the main hall, so that you won't have to look around for water to drink."

Looking at Su Qingning, Emperor Chen smiled and said, he was in a good mood at this moment.

"Yes, thank you, Your Majesty." Su Qingning replied, her gaze fell on the food on the table.

Although she often used money to manage the dining room to improve the food, but it was not as good as what the emperor had here.

One of her greatest hobbies is to eat delicious food. Now that there are so many delicious foods in front of her, she hasn't eaten them for a long time, so naturally she can't take her eyes off them.

Su Qingning's actions were seen by Emperor Chen, the smile on his face deepened, and he found Su Qingning more and more interesting.

"Let's eat." After Zhou Chengren had tried the poison, the emperor picked up the chopsticks and greeted Su Qingning to have a meal. Su Qingning responded with a smile, picked up the chopsticks, and looked at the emperor eagerly.

The memory in her mind told her that she could only move after the emperor moved the chopsticks first, otherwise it would be rude.

Seeing Su Qingning looking at him longingly, Emperor Chen moved his chopsticks and picked up some dishes for Su Qingning. He waved his hand and pushed Zhou Chengren away so that he didn't have to wait in front of him.

From just now, Zhou Chengren could tell that the emperor liked Su Wanrong very much, now that he was ordered, Zhou Chengren responded and stepped aside.

The emperor brought food for him, and after Su Qingning thanked him, he first brought food for the emperor as a courtesy, and then began to taste the dishes one by one.

Although the food she ate was also made by Shangshanfang, but compared with the meals here, there is no comparison at all.

When encountering something she likes to eat, Su Qingning will eat a few more mouthfuls, and she will try her best to taste something she doesn't like.

The emperor looked at her eating, and felt that the food was very sweet, so he ate half a bowl of rice unconsciously.

This made Zhou Chengren who was standing by the side very happy, and even more highly regarded Su Qingning.

You know, the emperor is busy with court affairs recently, and he often doesn't eat well. As the emperor's servant, he can't afford to be in a hurry.

Now seeing that the emperor ate more, he felt happier than anyone else.

Su Qingning didn't know what Zhou Chengren was thinking. After she was full, she put down her chopsticks and let out a sigh of relief.

After this meal, she became more and more determined that she must be favored by the emperor, because only in this way, she could eat happily and live happily without using money.

"Is my concubine full?" Seeing that Su Qingning put down his chopsticks, and the emperor also put down his chopsticks, he was full just now, and just watched Su Qingning eat happily, so he ate a few mouthfuls of food from time to time.

If he had put down his chopsticks just now, even if Su Qingning was not full, he would have to put down his chopsticks as well, this is the rule in the palace.
