"You did the right thing." The imperial concubine raised her fingers to face the sun and admired the red kodan on her fingers, then asked casually: "Did your greetings go well today?"

"In general, it went smoothly, except that Concubine Jing said something sarcastic at the beginning, but the Empress blocked her. Then she started to get angry with me again, and I changed the topic to the Empress.

, and she died down."

Lu Wanning told the imperial concubine truthfully what happened when she paid her respects in the morning. The imperial concubine would know these things even if she didn't tell her, so there was no need for her to hide them.

When Lu Wanning said this, there was a bit of anger on his face, but also a bit of pride that could not be concealed.

The imperial concubine laughed when she saw the expression on Lu Wanning's face, shook her head, and said: "Concubine Jing, she has always disliked me. When you greet me today, he will attack you because of me. It is actually me who has caused you trouble."

Already."

Lu Wanning shook her head quickly, "My Majesty, what did you say? You can't write two characters of "Lu" in one stroke. If you don't say that you and I are both girls from the Zhongyong Hou Mansion, we should share weal and woe, so you just said that when I was in Chuxiu Palace,

Regardless of whether you are a nun or a palace maid, the eunuch will always give me a bit of a thumbs-down. Isn’t it because I rely on your prestige in the palace? The queen said that she would harm me, but I feel that I get more benefits from the queen. "

The imperial concubine was very satisfied with Lu Wanning's reaction. She smiled and said, "You are right. We are all loyal and brave girls from the Hou Mansion. We should share weal and woe. But what I said hurt our sisterhood a bit."

Lu Wanning smiled and said: "Your Majesty, you are used to being the eldest sister. You are used to taking everything on yourself. You only want to take care of me as your younger sister, but you don't want me as your younger sister to be bullied because of you. I understand that.

, it just asks me to only enjoy the good things my mother has done, but not repay her, which is really unsettling for my conscience."

"I'm a sister, and I should take care of you. If you really want to repay me with the opportunities I have in the future, all you have to do now is go to bed as soon as possible."

After the imperial concubine finished speaking, she added: "Originally, I wanted to arrange for you to live in my side hall of Zhaoyang Palace, so that it would be more convenient for me to take care of you and you would have more opportunities to see the emperor. However, with my body

No, on the grounds that you still need to rest, I suggest to the Emperor that you be placed in Linglong Pavilion first, and I can't say anything more in front of the Emperor."

"But although Linglong Pavilion is a little smaller and a little far away from the Emperor's Jianzhang Palace, it doesn't matter as long as the Emperor likes you. Do you understand?"

Lu Wanning nodded, "Don't worry, Madam, I understand, and I will definitely work hard to gain the Emperor's favor."

Lu Wanning stayed in Zhaoyang Palace for about half an hour, making the imperial concubine believe that she was devoted to the imperial concubine, knew that the imperial concubine was good, and was willing to listen to the imperial concubine, and then she said goodbye.

The imperial concubine did not try to persuade her to stay. She only said: "You just entered the palace yesterday. I think you still have a lot of things to deal with. I won't keep you anymore. From now on, we sisters will live together in the palace, so it will be easy to meet each other."

.”

After saying that, the imperial concubine ordered Chisu to send Lu Wanning and Qingzhi back.

After the people left, the imperial concubine said to Hong Jian: "It is indeed a good choice to choose her to enter the palace. She is not too smart, but she is not too stupid. It is just right."

Hong Jian said with a smile: "My Majesty, you have never made a mistake in your judgment of people. You personally selected Lu Meiren to enter the palace, so naturally you can't make mistakes in all aspects."

The imperial concubine smiled and said, "Only if she can safely give birth to a little prince according to my requirements will she be worthy of all the thoughts I have put into her."

The red note said: "My servant sees that Beauty Lu has great faith and reliance on the empress, so she will definitely be able to help the empress achieve her wish."

The imperial concubine nodded: "I hope she can get pregnant within a year."

"Don't worry, Madam. With Beauty Lu's appearance, the Emperor will definitely like her. As long as she sleeps with her a few more times, it will only be a matter of time before she becomes pregnant with a dragon."

Lu Wanning had returned to Linglong Pavilion at this time. Qingdai saw them coming back and greeted them, "Miss, are you back?"

Lu Wanning said "hmm" and remembered something and told Qingdai and Qingzhi: "You have entered the palace now, and your previous titles have to be changed. From now on, you two will call me master like Zhou Man and the others. No.

Call me miss again."

Qingzhi and Qingdai nodded, "Yes, master and slave, I have remembered it."

"Yes." Lu Wanning nodded and said, "I'm going to rest for a while, and you two can go and do your work."

"I'm going to make a cup of tea for the master."

"I'm going to help the master light the incense that calms the mind."

Qingzhi and Qingdai went to work as they talked.

Lu Wanning returned to her room, rubbed her forehead, and breathed a sigh of relief. Whether she was going to Fengyi Palace to pay her respects this morning, or whether she was going to Zhaoyang Palace to see the noble concubine, she was tense and relaxed now.

When I got down, I felt exhausted all over.

When she thought about having to deal with these people nervously every day from now on, Lu Wanning wanted to sigh. Such days were too tiring.

But there was no way around it, she could only slowly get used to this kind of life.

In Fengyi Palace, the queen had just finished handling the palace affairs. She took a sip from the teacup in her hand and asked the maid beside her: "Have the snacks that I ordered the kitchen to make ready?"

Liuli, the personal maid next to the queen, replied: "If you want to return to your Majesty, I have already prepared it."

The queen nodded, "Just finish it. I promised Cong'er this morning that I would prepare his favorite chestnut cake for him today. If he comes back later and doesn't see the chestnut cake, he will have trouble with me."

The prince of the Yong Dynasty had to study in the Shangshufang when he was five years old. The prince Luo Cong is six years old this year and has been studying in the Shangshufang for more than a year. However, he would go back to Fengyi Palace to have meals with the Queen after school every day.

Luo Cong was frail, and cakes such as chestnut cakes were difficult to digest, so the queen never dared to let him eat more. But yesterday the emperor tested Luo Cong on his homework. Luo Cong performed very well and was praised by the emperor.

In order to reward Luo Cong, the queen agreed to let the small kitchen make his favorite chestnut cake for him today.

Although the Queen seemed to dislike the Prince again, Liuli knew that His Highness the Prince was the Queen's heart, and the Queen was actually very fond of and satisfied with the Prince.

She smiled and said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has always been well-behaved and sensible. Even if the Queen really forgot to have someone prepare chestnut cake for His Highness, His Royal Highness would not really make a fuss with the Queen."

"Just because Cong'er is well-behaved and sensible, I must not forget what I promised him," the queen said.

After saying this, the queen suddenly thought of Lu Wanning and asked Liuli: "After Lu Meiren left Fengyi Palace, she went to Zhaoyang Palace."

Liuli nodded, "Beauty Lu stayed in Zhaoyang Palace for more than half an hour before leaving."
