Doting concubines is a disaster: Your majesty, you are happy

Chapter 64 Seeking Cooperation
After Su Muhui left, Jia Ruchu welcomed many newcomers one after another.When Jia Ruchu felt a little tired, Tang Yuan reported that Zhou Hongyu and Zhou Zhaoyuan had come.

"Almost all the people involved in the Chuxiu Palace incident are here today."

But Qingqian said at this time: "I heard that Zhou Zhaoyuan is the second to go to Concubine Rou's place this week."

Jia Ruchu thought for a while and said: "She is now in Yanxiang Palace, which is close to Changning Palace. Concubine Rou is the second concubine in the west, so it's okay for Zhou Zhaoyuan to go to Concubine Rou second."

Qingqian said cautiously after listening to Jia Ruchu's words: "The slave girl accidentally heard that Mingxiu who was in front of Concubine Rou said that it seemed that Xianghe had gone to Chuxiu Palace. But at that time, the slave girl happened to have something to do and didn't pay attention. Just now Hearing Xiao Anzi mention that Zhou Zhaoyuan went to Concubine Rou, this servant suddenly remembered this matter, and this servant does not know if there is any connection between the two."

Jia Ruchu looked at Aunt Feng, but Aunt Feng shook her head.

"It seems that Zhou Zhaoyuan's ability is not small, or Concubine Rou's power is developing rapidly!"

Aunt Feng frowned and didn't know what she was thinking, then Aunt Feng said solemnly: "Your servant must find out the truth of the matter as soon as possible!"

Jia Ruchu nodded.

Aunt Feng went out directly.

"Sister has met Sister Chen. Greet Sister Chen, and best wishes to Sister Chen!"

Jia Ruchu watched and saluted very well, and Zhou Hongyu's affectionate smile appeared between the words.

"Why is sister Zhou so polite? They are all my sisters, please sit down."

After thanking Zhou Hongyu, she sat down and said: "Sister Chen entered the palace a few days earlier than me, and her status is higher than mine. The rules cannot be broken."

Jia Ruchu knew the family background of the newly promoted concubines as early as those beautiful girls entered the palace, and Zhou Hongyu in front of him was the youngest sister of the third-rank general Huaihua.I heard that General Huaihua is still highly valued by Chang Yuliang, and this and Zhou Hongyu's status can also be seen from this.

But a military commander who always talks about the rules is completely different from Su Muhui, the former second-rank Fuguo general.

"Sister Zhou's rules are excellent."

Zhou Hongyu said at this time: "Rules are made for those who obey the rules. For those who do not obey the rules, the rules are actually just two words."

Jia Ruchu smiled: "Sister Zhou's remarks are interesting."

Zhou Hongyu glanced at Jia Ruchu and said, "I thought your empress would agree with my point of view."

Jia Ruchu was stunned by Zhou Hongyu's sudden words.

Then Jia Ruchu followed up and said seriously: "I didn't say I disagree."

Now it was Zhou Hongyu's turn to be stunned.

Jia Ruchu laughed: "I don't know what can Sister Zhou learn from her visit today?"

Zhou Hongyu smiled and stood up, bent over to Jia Ruchu and said, "I really saw the right person. Have fun!"

Jia Ruchu looked at Zhou Hongyu leisurely.

Zhou Hongyu said, "I don't know what Sister Chen thinks about our cooperation?"

Jia Ruchu smiled and said, "How to cooperate?"

Zhou Hongyu said: "Sister Chen entered the palace earlier than my concubine, and is currently pregnant with a dragon fetus, and is deeply favored by the emperor, but sister Chen is lacking in family background. The concubine's family background is not bad, but she entered the palace late, and according to the emperor's The emperor will not allow concubines to occupy high positions and expand the power of foreign relatives. So in the future, we will help each other, not seeking unlimited honor and favor, but seeking stability for the rest of our lives."

Jia Ruchu said with a smile: "From what Sister Zhou said, Sister Zhou doesn't really yearn for life in the palace?"

Zhou Hongyu was stunned for a moment and said: "Sister Chen is right, but sometimes you can't escape the word fate."

Jia Ruchu didn't expect Zhou Hongyu to be so honest.It's just that Jia Ruchu didn't think about who to really join forces with, and Zhou Hongyu had only entered the palace not long ago, and Jia Ruchu didn't know her well, so how could such a cooperation start so easily.In particular, Jia Ruchu didn't understand the successive incidents. If Jia Ruchu believed in such a complicated situation, it would be irresponsible to herself.

"I don't know why sister Zhou wants to cooperate with me, but I have understood a truth since I was a child, the size of my feet is the size of my shoes. I don't have much wish, I just hope everything is safe. The palace is timid."

After Jia Ruchu said this, he saw a moment of sadness on Zhou Hongyu's face.

Then Zhou Hongyu smiled self-deprecatingly: "How many people really know what they want? How many of them really understand 'One can be strong without desire'?"

"My concubine knows what Sister Chen said."

Seeing that Zhou Hongyu was not dissatisfied or angry at first, Jia Ru looked at Zhou Hongyu with admiration.

"If sister Zhou has anything to do, I can help, and I am willing to help."

Zhou Hongyu smiled and said: "I understand, thank you very much. I will resign."

And when Zhou Hongyu first went out, she met Aunt Feng.

"My servant has met Mistress Zhaoyuan, Mistress Wanan!"

"This must be Aunt Feng who is in front of Sister Chen, right?"

"Slave is right."

Zhou Hongyu glanced at Aunt Feng after getting the affirmation, but left directly.

"Your Majesty, this servant has checked carefully just now. Concubine Rou has indeed sent someone to Chuxiu Palace to deliver clothes to Zhou Zhaoyuan. Zhou Zhaoyuan was wearing the clothes sent by Concubine Rou on the day she ran for the election."

Jia Ruchu heard Aunt Feng's words and said, "Auntie, do you know why Zhou Zhaoyuan came to our Anle Palace just now?"

Aunt Feng shook her head: "I don't know."

Jia Ruchu looked out the door and said, "Zhou Zhaoyuan said that she wants Bengong to cooperate with her."

When Aunt Feng was thinking about the possibilities, pros and cons, Jia Ruchu continued, "I refused."

Aunt Feng looked at Jia Ruchu with some puzzlement.

Jia Ruchu said: "I don't intend to form a clique. Although the result looks very attractive, I am afraid that the fruit is poisonous. And who knows if this fruit has been in other people's baskets before?"

Aunt Feng now understood what Jia Ruchu meant.

Originally, the early stage of the draft was the best time for the old man in the harem to win over his influence, but this year's show girls are all higher status than Jia Ruchu and the others.Strictly speaking, the selection of the two waves of show girls was not very formal, but the latter wave was a lot more formal, but the draft did not start according to the rules.

Those newly-promoted concubines with good family backgrounds may sometimes not win but feed tigers.The matter between Zhou Hongyu and Du Mingyue from Changning Palace just showed that Du Mingyue was very interested in Zhou Hongyu.As for whether the two have cooperated or not, Jia Ruchu doesn't know.So the best thing to do is not take the risk.
