The Self-cultivation of the Noble Concubine Who Eats Melon

  Chapter 132 133: She knew nothing good

  Feng Yi looked at Yun Zhao, stretched out his hand to brush her bright eyes that seemed to be burning with small flames, and said after a while, "I like it."

  Song Yunzhao was about to speak when he heard Meng Jiuchang urging again, "Your Majesty, Jieyu, the time is coming."

  Meng Jiuchang was also very embarrassed. He didn't want to be an obstacle, but he had no choice but to miss the emperor's important event.

  He also admires it, there is no one who is more clingy than Song Jieyu and not annoying, even he can't bear the coquettish look of Song Jieyu, let alone the emperor.

   Song Yunzhao hurriedly asked someone to change the emperor's clothes quickly, twisted the handkerchief with his own hands and wiped the emperor's face and hands, and Wangyou Palace became busy in an instant.

  It was still dark outside, Anshun raised the palace lantern and waited outside, and the servants who slipped outside Wangyou Palace were waiting.

   Song Yunzhao sent the emperor out, Feng Yi held her down, "It's cold outside, don't come out, go back."

  Song Yunzhao responded with a smile, and watched the emperor stride away.

  Feng Yi walked to the palace gate, suddenly stopped and turned around, and saw Yun Zhao wrapped in a cloak standing under the eaves of the corridor, staring in his direction.

   Through the thick night, Feng Yi's heart warmed, he retracted his eyes and strode out of Wangyou Palace.

  Song Yunzhao happily returned to the inner hall, wrapped in a big cloak, it was cold too, it’s not easy to play affectionate characters, pay attention to details.

   Just like just now, if she was afraid of the cold and came back first, and the emperor only saw the cold air when he turned his head, do you think he will lose it?

I am very sure of that.

  Like should resonate. If you look at me, I happen to be looking at you too. That is the sweet taste.

  Song Yunzhao felt that he had a very lucky start to the new year, so he really wanted to give himself a certificate.

  The emperor accepted his ministers to celebrate the new year in the previous court, Song Yunzhao was much more relaxed here, and only waited for the emperor to finish his work before coming to the harem for a cutscene.

  After she finished dressing and having breakfast, the concubines who came to pay New Year's greetings came.

  Song Yunzhao forgot, she is now second only to the third concubine, and she is also a person of status.

   It's not surprising that someone else came to pay her New Year's greetings, and this reminded her whether she should go to Sanfei's place.

  Thinking of this, she had time to ask Nanny Yu, and Nanny Yu said: "It would be best if the master can go."

  Song Yunzhao sighed, and after sending away the people who paid her New Year greetings, he hurriedly changed into formal clothes and went to Concubine Shu's first, then Concubine Zhuang and Concubine Wan's.

   When Song Yunzhao knew that Concubine Wan hadn’t seen anyone, he wasn’t angry at all. The third concubine walked around here and she didn’t lose her manners, but Concubine Wan didn’t see her. She had a higher status than her, so he couldn’t say anything.

   Coming out of Roufu Palace, I ran into Lu Zhixue head-on. Obviously, Lu Zhixue also came to pay New Year greetings to Concubine Wan, so Song Yunzhao said to her: "Concubine Wan is not seeing anyone, so you go to Wangyou Palace after a formality."

  Lu Zhixue responded subconsciously, and only after Song Yunzhao had gone far away did she think about what to do with her in Wangyou Palace?

  She heard that the emperor came back from Tai Chi Palace last night, and after all, he stayed overnight in Wangyou Palace.

  She can't even feel sore now, and taking advantage of Song Yunzhao, isn't that short of hand?

   Besides, the emperor is not something she can have if she wants it, or grab it if she wants it.

  She doesn't have Song Yunzhao's ability, so she can only think about it temporarily.

  Song Yunzhao went back to Wangyou Palace and saw Feng Yunjin and Han Jinyi waiting for her. She entered the palace and said with a smile, "I just guessed where you came."

  If I didn't see them coming early in the morning, I must have waited until the end to settle here.

   "Jieyu is happy for the New Year." The two said in unison.

  Song Yunzhao heard the pun in the two words, and rarely blushed, and said solemnly: "Concubine Lu will be here in a while, and we just came to play cards to pass the time."

  Feng Yunjin responded to Han Jinyi with a smile, "What cards are you playing?"

   "Leaf card." Song Yunzhao said with a smile, you can't play Landlords, right? At this time, the title of landlord is still a noble class, and it is not used for joking, as it is prone to accidents.

   It was said that Lu Zhixue had arrived. After entering the door, he leaned on the warm cage to warm his hands. After the chill dissipated, he said, "What are you talking about so lively?"

   "It's about playing the leaf card."

  Lu Zhixue's eyes lit up, "This is good."

  Song Yunzhao smiled and said, "It just so happens that the last bet has not been received yet, so I will trouble Concubine Lu to shuffle the cards today."

  Lu Zhixue: …

  She knew it was not a good thing!

  Xiangxue and a few palace servants were busy setting up the card table, and the big palace ladies who followed Lu Zhixue and the others also hurriedly stepped forward to help, and the hall became lively in an instant.

  Dianthus came up with tea, followed by Qingfeng Yulu with various refreshments, filling up the small table next to it.

   It's because there is no queen in the palace. If the queen is in charge, they will have to squat in Changle Palace right now.

  The ladies in the capital know a little bit about leaf cards. Not to mention good or bad card skills, this is also a way of socializing, so they will learn a little bit.

  Song Yunzhao watched Lu Zhixue shuffling the cards and said with a smile: "I can see that our Concubine Lu is proficient in this technique. See, there is no one who can't practice this technique for twenty years."

  Lu Zhixue slammed her hands, and blushed with anger, "I'm only so young, and I can only open my mouth for 20 years. I can't match me in the mother's womb."

  Feng Yunjin and Han Jinyi burst out laughing.

  After the cards were spent, everyone began to draw the cards. Lu Zhixue said first: "You are not allowed to deliberately feed the cards."

   "Of course." Song Yunzhao responded with a smile. Playing cards is just for fun, so what's the fun in deliberately feeding cards.

  Feng Yunjin touched the cards and said, "Of course, shall we have a lottery?"

   "Anything is fine?" Han Jinyi asked.

  Lu Zhixue rolled her eyes, and said, "It's not good to bet on gold and silver during the Chinese New Year. If it spreads, people will inevitably talk about it. Why don't we post a note."

   "Okay." Song Yunzhao agreed, and it was really festive to post a note on the New Year's Eve.

  Lu Zhixue was overjoyed, thinking that she would be able to win the game this time, and her card skills were pretty good.

  After a few rounds of cards, Han Jinyi had the most notes on his face, and Lu Zhixue didn't come last this time, but seeing Song Yunzhao's smooth face, he felt angry, and he was so lucky.

  Han Jinyi's expression is calm, she is not very proficient in playing cards, she can barely get by, and she is already content with not sticking all of them on her face.

  Having a break in the middle, several people sat down to drink tea, and each took off the strips on their faces. Feng Yunjin held the teacup, looked at Song Yunzhao and said, "The story of the monument of merit has spread in the harem, does Jieyu know?"

  Song Yunzhao really didn't know, put down the teacup and looked at Feng Yunjin, "So fast?"

  Lu Zhixue was also taken aback, "Who passed it on?"

  She didn't know that rumors had spread from the palace.

  Han Jinyi looked at Lu Zhixue, "I don't know who spread the news, but I know that donating silver can be on the merit monument. Now the concubines in the palace who donated silver are all very happy."

  Lu Zhixue only paid money at the beginning, and didn't take much part in the subsequent affairs. After all, Concubine Shu took over. Why does Han Jinyi seem to have something inside?

   "You made it clear, what's going on?" Lu Zhixue asked with a frown.

  Han Jinyi said: "How much silver is there, and the size of the merit monument is also different. What do you think?"

  Lu Zhixue was taken aback.

  Feng Yunjin smiled and said, "It's not just people from the harem who donate money and goods, but also courtiers and merchants. If all the people are written on it, how big is the monument?"

  Besides, things like the monument of merit and virtue are originally used to promote fame, and the people have good intentions, but after the thing comes out, more people will stare at it, and the meaning of this will naturally change.

  Lu Zhixue also understood, and said a little unhappyly: "When I donated money in the palace, some people were not happy, and some people said that they were trying to gain fame, their mouths were not idle, and the money was not seen. Why do you want to come up and take a bite now that it is beneficial? How shameless?"

   "This matter is not that simple. Think about how this matter spread? Someone must be behind the scenes to fuel the flames." Han Jinyi reminded Lu Zhixue to focus on the key points.

  Lu Zhixue asked back, "Who is that?"

  Han Jinyi shook her head, "I just don't know yet, so let's talk about it."

  Feng Yunjin looked at Lu Zhixue and said something to her, "Whoever is missing, we will not be missing, after all, it is the emperor's golden words."

  Lu Zhixue forgot about this matter in agitation, immediately calmed down, and said with a smile: "We paid a lot of real money, how dare someone else grab it from us?"

   It hurt a little when I gave out the money, but now it doesn’t hurt at all. I just feel that it was lucky to donate more, otherwise how could she have the nerve to fight now?

  Thinking of this, she looked at Song Yunzhao again, "Ms. Concubine Shu paid a thousand taels, isn't she the most?"

  Song Yunzhao nodded, "Yes."

  Lu Zhixue: …

   Concubine Shu's luck made her a little jealous. Everyone is not a likable person. Why has Concubine Shu's road become smoother recently?

  Feng Yunjin looked at Lu Zhixue's soft-spoken words, "The position of Concubine Shu is there, how can we overstep it?"

  Back then, Song Jieyu was one hundred taels less than Concubine Shu's donation. At that time, she looked at Song Jieyu and meant to donate more, but after Concubine Shu gave out one thousand taels, Jieyu reduced the money calmly.

  Lu Zhixue is still complaining about injustice here, I'm afraid Jieyu had already thought about it.

   It doesn’t matter if you don’t admire it.

  She, Han Jinyi and Lu Zhixue are a little less than Song Jieyu. She thought that Lu Zhixue knew it well, but she didn't know until today that she was just copying cats and dogs.

   Laughing and angry, but there is nothing I can do.

  Han Jinyi looked at Yun Zhao, "Except for this matter, what should we do now?"

  After all, they gave a lot of money, and Yun Zhao was favored in the palace, but now that such a good thing happens again, I am afraid that other people will feel even more aggrieved.

  Song Yunzhao's emperor had already greeted her here, but it was not easy to involve the emperor, so she said: "At the beginning, it was Empress Concubine Shu who did it all by herself, and she was the one who did the best work. Naturally, the empress will also take care of the aftermath."

  Feng Yunjin immediately understood Song Jieyu's meaning, and thought about it and said: "Ms. Concubine Shu takes action, so naturally nothing will happen."

  With Concubine Shu’s temperament and her status, only Concubine Zhuang and Concubine Wan can compete with her. But Concubine Zhuang only expressed her heart in donating money at the beginning, and Concubine Wan was just going through the motions.

   But it's hard.

  As long as the second concubine can't turn the tide, the plan of the people behind the scenes will come to nothing.

  Song Yunzhao looked at Feng Yunjin thoughtfully, and added with a smile, "The monument of merit was originally done by the people voluntarily, but now it has changed. It may not be calm in the court, and the turmoil in the harem may echo the front."

  Even Lu Zhixue could hear the deep meaning of these words, she put down the teacup in her hand, and said worriedly: "So who is this aimed at?"

  From the front court to the harem, who is the biggest beneficiary?

  It was Song Nanzhen who helped the disaster back then, and Song Nanzhen was Yun Zhao's father. If Yun Zhao's name appeared on the merit tablet again, the father and daughter would help the people together. This would have a much greater impact than Song Jieyu's simple donation of silver.

  Others will boast that the Song family has a mellow and kind family style, like a father, like a daughter, and there is also a Tanhualang...

  Lu Zhixue took a deep breath, and stared at Song Yunzhao quietly.

   Standing in the limelight is indeed very beautiful, but the swords and swords under the scenery are not something everyone can handle.

  Han Jinyi's face was also not good-looking, she looked at Yun Zhao and said, "Shall I write a letter to my family to ask what's going on?"

  Song Yunzhao shook his head, "No, it's always clear to the world whether it's a human or a ghost. Besides, we don't need to take the lead in this matter. It depends on how Concubine Shu handles it in the palace."

   Concubine Shu is now going in a very different direction from the book. It stands to reason that she should stand opposite Song Yunzhao and fight to the death, but Yunzhao has a flexible mind and can bring some benefits to Concubine Shu every time. This incident has benefited her a lot. Not only her, but even the right minister pulled out a leg from the quagmire.

  So Concubine Shu can't fight with Yun Zhao now, the two are neither friends nor allies, but this relationship happens to be incompatible with each other, neither far nor near.

  Song Yunzhao is embarrassing when he thinks about it this way. Is it easy for you to say that she is a female supporting role with the heroine's heart?

   It’s all about living, living better.

   "Concubine Shu's place, why don't concubines go for a visit." Feng Yunjin was a little uneasy, Concubine Shu did things according to her preferences, if something went wrong, they would also be in bad luck.

  Jieyu is probably fine with the emperor's protection, but it's hard to say how many of them there are. It's better to sail the boat carefully for ten thousand years than to have Jieyu rescue them if something goes wrong.

  Han Jinyi agreed with Feng Yunjin's words, but seeing Yun Zhao's expression, he asked, "Does Jieyu have other ideas?"

  Song Yunzhao smiled, "It's not an idea, I just think that Concubine Shu is used to doing things as she pleases, and she definitely doesn't want others to tell her what to do. How about this, let's help the empress to blow the wind."

  Lu Zhixue became interested, "What Dongfeng?"

   "Others will spread rumors, don't we? Besides, we are not rumors, but facts. Let people release the news that the number of merit monuments is limited, and that's it."

   "That's all right?" Lu Zhixue was taken aback for a moment, it's that simple?

  Han Jinyi also looked at Yun Zhao worriedly, feeling that this was a bit perfunctory.
