Xiangmen Concubine: The Emperor's Abandoned Concubine

Chapter 239 Love Words
The palace maid whispered: "Concubine Shu and Concubine He have always been at odds, no matter what, they insist on competing. Now, they are right again."

Although Hsinchu had entered the palace not long ago, when the empress was not in the palace, the tempers of the ladies in the palace were fairly clear.

Seeing the empress's expression was indifferent, Hsinchu quickly explained: "Concubine He is the younger sister of the current Taifu, and one of the four concubines of the Supreme Emperor."

"Concubine Shu is the elder sister of Lord Shangshu of the Household Department. Before the empress dowager entered the palace, the emperor often went to Concubine Shu's side." The people coming here should have seen the Queen Mother sending people over."

Ruan Mianmian glanced at Hsinchu in surprise, Hsinchu's face blushed, and explained in a low voice: "On the day when the empress disappeared, the emperor invited many old people in the palace to teach the slaves how to behave."

Nodding slightly, Ruan Mianmian said flatly, "If they insist on arbitrarily ordering, you don't have to bother."

The maid whispered, "Then... then what if they start fighting?"

Judging by the posture just now, it was easy to do it directly.

Ruan Mianmian smiled softly: "What do they have to do with us, anyway, they are not from our Jiuyou Palace, so I won't take care of them."

"Go and tell them, if Concubine Shu and Concubine He know that they fought in front of Jiuyou Palace, please imagine the consequences for themselves. I'm not feeling well, I'm resting, let them go back."

After speaking, Ruan Mianmian got up.

The palace maid was a little surprised, and Hsinchu winked at her again and again: "Go quickly."

The maid understood, and then ran out quickly.

It was an hour after I saw Feng Jiuyou. Judging by his attire, he should have just finished discussing with the ministers, and he was still wearing a bright yellow dragon robe.

Feng Jiuyou prefers crimson or dark purple clothes. Except for the bright yellow dragon robe, most of the rest of the clothes are mainly crimson.

When he was in Jiuyou Palace, he seldom dressed so formally.

Seeing Ruan Mianmian, Feng Jiuyou habitually half hugged her into her arms.Ruan Mianmian was about to gently push him away as usual, but Feng Jiuyou hugged him tightly.

Slightly surprised, Ruan Mianmian asked gently: "What's wrong?"

Burying her head on her neck, Feng Jiuyou's voice was soft and deep: "It's nothing, just thinking about spending less time with you today, I feel a little uncomfortable."

This... Ruan Mianmian lowered her eyes, covering the unnaturalness in her eyes.

Feng Jiuyou smiled lightly, and quickly kissed her tender lips like a superficial kiss: "Wu Ai is still so hard to listen to love words."

Ruan Mianmian: "..."

Feng Jiuyou fell in love with Wu Ai's shy and embarrassed appearance, not the usual indifference, but the endless shyness of his daughter added in an instant, which made him even more infatuated.

Kissing her lips again, Feng Jiuyou left reluctantly, with gentle eyes: "Come with me to the dinner party tonight."

Ruan Mianmian subconsciously wanted to refuse, but Feng Jiuyou's smile remained undiminished, her voice was still gentle, but her eyes were dark: "The king of Nanjun has entered the capital and stayed with the emperor for a while."

"Nanjun king coming to Beijing?" Ruan Mianmian's first thought was that Feng Changxi was saved.

During the four months in the palace, she didn't dare to inquire about Tianzihao and Feng Changxi.

Because she knew that the current Feng Jiuyou was only patient and did not explode, if she went to inquire about them again, she would only caress Feng Jiuyou's Ni Lin.

Ruan Mianmian paused, and said softly, "Forget it, I don't like those. Besides, I'm still wearing a veil."

"Don't you want to see Feng Changxi?" Feng Jiuyou's expression was lazy, but there was a coldness in his eyes.

Ruan Mianmian shook her head with a smile, she still wanted to meet him from the bottom of her heart, wanted to see how he was doing, had his injuries healed?
But this was Feng Jiuyou's temptation. If Feng Jiuyou knew that she was still thinking about Feng Changxi in her heart, it might be what would happen to the reception banquet for the King of Nanjun tonight.

Feng Jiuyou has never been able to see through things.Maybe this, maybe that.

After being captured by him, Ruan Mianmian originally thought that she would definitely die, or that she would definitely be tortured by him.But all this time, very strangely, nothing that she imagined happened.

Not daring to think too much, Ruan Mianmian said flatly, "It's a lie to say that you don't want to see him."

Sensing the gloomy look in Feng Jiuyou's eyes, Ruan Mianmian said indifferently: "But what if we see him? He is the son of Nanjun Prince, and I am the queen of Fengtian Dynasty."

"My trust is only once, only once." The tip of his nose suddenly became a little sour, and he didn't know whether it was because of the future that they had nothing to do with each other from now on, or because of their future fate.

Feng Jiuyou's gaze never left Ruan Mianmian's cheek for a moment, taking in all her emotions.Seeing the moving expression on her face, my heart suddenly became depressed.

Just mentioning Feng Changxi's name, she couldn't help being moved.

But in his heart, he was extremely uncomfortable now.

Glancing at Ruan Mianmian with gloomy eyes, Feng Jiuyou's voice was a little weak: "I still have something to attend to, so I'm going to the Imperial Study Room first. During the dinner, I will send Liu Yan to pick you up."

Ruan Mianmian looked at the irrefutable look in his eyes, and nodded helplessly.

Hsinchu was a little puzzled when he came in, so he didn't ask any questions, but carefully observed the empress's expression.

In the study, the empress did not wear a veil, but nothing could be seen on her face.But when the emperor left just now, his smile was a bit dazzling, which made her feel a little creepy.

"Hsinchu, help me prepare a palace attire, I will wear it to the dinner tonight." After speaking, Ruan Mianmian sat back to her original position and let go of the album on the low table.

Hsinchu was slightly taken aback, then nodded again and again.

Ruan Mianmian felt a little depressed, and couldn't explain why.

Ruan Mianmian got up and left the study room after reading the album with great interest.Seeing this, Hsinchu quickly put down the work in his hands and quickly followed.

After leaving the study, Ruan Mianmian walked around the rockery in front of him, walked a long corridor, and stopped by the river pool in Jiuyou Palace.

The lotus is blooming brightly and gracefully.There are still traces of water drops on the lotus leaves, which look like pearls falling on the green leaves in the sun, crystal clear.

Holding his fingers on the white jade railing pushed out of the river pool, Ruan Mianmian looked far and wide, and the bits and pieces of Feng Changxi and Feng Changxi in the past slowly emerged in his mind.

The deliberately designed hero saves the beauty, and the subsequent calculation and approach gradually gain her trust...

There is no woman who does not desire to have a beloved man by her side to take care of her. When she is most lonely and helpless, Feng Changxi is by her side.

If there is no emotion, it is not true.

"Sea water dreams are long, you are worried and I am also worried. The south wind knows what I want, blowing dreams to the West Lake." Ruan Mianmian whispered softly.

It is not the sea in front of me, but a river pond that can't be seen as far as the eye can see.The bursts of floral fragrance, fresh and elegant, made her feel much more comfortable.

Before she could put that person in her heart completely, she knew that it was an unattainable dream.

Fortunately, she controlled her heart.

Even if she is a little sad, but she believes in herself, as time goes by, those marks will fade little by little.

It's just a dinner party, what is she worried about?
When did Ruan Mianmian become so hesitant?
Taking a breath, Ruan Mianmian smiled, looked at Hsinchu and said, "Go and get ready for the dinner, I'll go back by myself later."
