Fengming Chen Palace

Chapter 276 Mind

After hearing Lu Zhaoyi finish speaking, Su Qingning nodded, she knew that Lu Zhaoyi was doing it for her own good.

The death of the Empress Dowager is a major event in the palace. After hearing the news, all the concubines in the palace changed into mourning clothes and appeared in the Lotus Palace.

Together with Lu Zhaoyi, Su Qingning directed the palace staff to be busy. Princess Mingyu knelt in front of the coffin with a blank expression. She hadn't fully recovered from the news of the Queen Mother's death.

"This concubine is for Concubine Su, and Lu Zhaoyi pays her respects. Is there anything I can help you with?"

While she was busy with her work, there was a voice, Su Qingning turned her head and looked at the speaking concubine.

Although her days in the harem were not short, she had very little contact with the concubines in the harem. The one in front of her seemed a bit unfamiliar to her, and she couldn't tell her surname and status for a while.

"It turned out to be Zhao Jieyu." Looking at Su Qingning's expression, Lu Zhaoyi knew that she did not recognize the woman in front of her, and she spoke in a gentle tone to greet Zhao Jieyu in front of her.

Seeing that Lu Zhaoyi recognized her, Zhao Jieyu was blessed again, so she came forward, naturally she had her own selfish motives.

"I don't need any help. It is enough to have Concubine Su and this palace here. Zhao Jieyu can just kneel down with peace of mind."

Although Zhao Jieyu didn't say anything, Lu Zhaoyi was not a stupid person, so she naturally guessed that Zhao Jieyu took the initiative to speak for some purpose.

"Since that's the case, the concubine will go to kneel down. If there is any need, just find a concubine. I will definitely do my best."

Unexpectedly, Lu Zhaoyi directly refuted it. Although Zhao Jieyu was unwilling, she still saluted and turned to leave.

"Did my sister recognize her?" After Zhao Jieyu left, Lu Zhaoyi looked at Su Qingning and asked her in a low voice.

"My sister also knows that I rarely walk around in the harem on weekdays, especially before, even if I went to pay my respects to the empress, I rarely went to see who was there."

In response, Su Qingning was not embarrassed. Although there were few concubines in the harem, she didn't need to remember who was who.

Even if we met on the road, according to my current status, the other party would have to salute. At that time, someone would remind her.

"This is Zhao Jieyu. Speaking of which, she entered the palace in the same batch as you. Now you are the only one in your group. You are the most favored by the emperor and have the highest status."

"She came here like this, presumably because she wanted to have a relationship with you. After all, your current status in the harem can be regarded as one of a kind."

Another point, Lu Zhaoyi didn't say anything, she guessed, that Zhao Jieyu came here not only to get close, but also to find a chance for the emperor to notice her.

The matters in the harem are now taken care of by Concubine Su and herself. If there is an extra one suddenly, the emperor will definitely ask a few questions. At that time, Zhao Jieyu may be noticed by the emperor.

After all, she entered the palace with Concubine Su, and she is not too old now. The most important thing is that Zhao Jieyu is delicate and weak, which makes people feel sorry for her.

Especially right now, even though she was wearing mourning clothes and no makeup, it was because of this that she looked even more delicate.

In this harem, no one is simple.

"So that's the case, thank you sister for clarifying the confusion." Nodding, Su Qingning looked towards the direction where Zhao Jieyu was kneeling, her gaze stayed on Zhao Jieyu for a moment, and then she took it back.

Zhao Jieyu, who was kneeling on the ground, did not notice Su Qingning's gaze. Although she was kneeling on the ground, her eyes kept looking around. She was looking for the location of the emperor.

At this moment, the emperor hadn't come back yet, so she couldn't see it, which made her feel a little depressed.

From the moment she entered the palace to the present, the number of times she saw the emperor was limited.

Once upon a time, she also expected that she would be favored by the emperor, and from then on, she would be favored by thousands of people.

However, her expectations were not fulfilled, and after several years in the palace, her status was still just that of Jieyu.

But the Su family who entered the palace in the same batch as her has now become the concubine Su. Not only that, she also gave birth to two princes for the emperor.

Thinking of this, Zhao Jieyu's heart felt a little blocked, especially thinking of the blankness that flashed in Concubine Su's eyes when she looked at her just now.

She didn't know who she was at all, so she didn't take herself seriously.

Although she is just a Jieyu, she entered the palace with her and said a few words, but now...

She took a deep breath, feeling aggrieved in her heart, how much she wished that the person who was favored now was her, and the one who gave birth to the emperor's heir was also her.

If this is the case, she will definitely not dominate the emperor and prevent him from going to the harem like that concubine Su.

Thinking in this way, her eyes searched the palace again, the emperor didn't see it, but saw Sun Jieyu who had never been on good terms with her.

Sun Jieyu and her also entered the palace in the same batch. In the past, there was friction between the two of them, and until now, their relationship has not been good.

After casting a blank glance at Sun Jieyu, Zhao Jieyu looked away, and she sighed in her heart, she didn't know if it was for herself or for something else.

Naturally, Su Qingning and Lu Zhaoyi didn't know about Zhao Jieyu's thoughts, and they were still busy with their lives, so they couldn't pay attention to the things in the palace.

The Emperor Chen tidied up and arranged the arrangements before heading to the Lotus Hall. When the eunuch's report and singing sounded, the eyes of several people in the hall suddenly brightened.

Entering from outside the hall, Emperor Chen immediately saw Su Qingning who was saluting, and then, he saw Princess Mingyu kneeling in the hall.

After giving an order, Emperor Chen nodded to Su Qingning, and then walked towards Princess Mingyu.

Zhao Jieyu knelt on the ground, watching the emperor's actions out of the corner of her eyes, seeing the emperor getting closer, her heart beat violently.

I'm coming, the emperor is coming, what should I say when I see the emperor's first sentence?What kind of tone should I use?
In such an occasion now, I'm afraid it's not good to be too delicate, it's better to look sad, after all, the one who died was the empress dowager, the emperor's mother.

Except for Su Qingning and a few people, few people in the harem knew that the queen mother was not the emperor's biological mother.

The emperor does not intend to announce this matter to the public, after all, no matter whether it is his biological mother or the queen mother, they are all gone now.

A few days ago, under the guidance of Nanny Chen, Emperor Chen sent someone to find the bones of his biological mother Zhao and moved them to another place. From then on, he would personally go to worship his biological mother every year.

The emperor's footsteps were getting closer and closer, and Zhao Jieyu's heart became more and more nervous. Just when she was about to open her mouth to talk to the emperor, the emperor's footsteps directly passed her and walked forward.

All of a sudden, what Zhao Jieyu wanted to say was choked in her throat, and her face was a little embarrassed for a moment.

　The weather is getting hotter and hotter recently, and I feel that I can’t live without the air conditioner. Dear friends, you must pay attention to heatstroke prevention, and when the air conditioner is blowing, cover your shoulders and belly to avoid the cold.In other words, there should be a senior high school entrance examination this month. I wish all candidates can achieve ideal results~
