Chapter 3 Teaching the Concubine a Lesson

The emperor and empress returned to Fengluan Palace together. The nuns and palace maids who had not followed Fu Yao to Yangxin Palace were so shocked that Dongba almost dropped his head when they saw this.

Will the Queen... be able to compete for favor?

But just for a moment, everyone lowered their heads, poured water, lit candles, lit incense, made beds, and went to work each other.

It was warm and fragrant outside the house, Fu Yao's little face was flushed, and her almond-shaped eyes were staring straight at Li Yan.

Li Yan glanced at her sideways and asked in a deep voice, "Why are you staring at me?"

Fu Yao tilted her head and blinked: "...it looks good."

Several people in the palace suppressed their laughter, feeling that Mingyue's Fu Yao was much different from usual.

Li Yan pursed his lips and waved away the palace people.

There was silence outside.

Fu Yao didn't know when he lay down on the bed, his calves swaying slightly, holding his face with his legs, looking at Li Yan with a smile in his eyes.

"Go to sleep." Li Min opened his thin lips lightly, then took off his coat and lay down on the bed.

But Fu Yao didn't feel sleepy at all. She rubbed herself next to Li Yan and continued to stare at him.

It’s like looking at the most precious and beautiful things in the world.

Fu Yao's eyes did not converge at all. Being stared at like that, Li Shen could not ignore it. He suddenly opened his eyes and frowned slightly: "Sleep."

After saying that, he held Fu Yao's thin shoulders and pinned her down on the bed without saying a word.

Fu Yao was obedient and didn't resist, but after Li Mingtao's eyes closed, she walked in again.

Li Yan's patience was exhausted. He opened his eyes and pulled Fu Yao into his arms without any explanation, holding her tightly. A low magnetic voice sounded above Fu Yao's head: "Stop moving, Mingyue, I really want to come to court early."

Fu Yao pressed her cheek against Li Shi's chest, listening to the steady and powerful heartbeat coming from Li Shi's chest, and blinked blankly, obediently no longer moving.

The two of them were so close that they could feel the warmth of each other through the fabric, and the sound of each other's breathing was very clear in their ears.

Li Yan was not used to suddenly holding a fragrant and soft person in his arms, but smelling the faint fragrance of Fu Yao's body, he felt surprisingly at ease, and fell asleep not long after.

In the dead of night, Fu Yao suddenly opened his eyes and slowly got up.

Li Yan's sleep was always very shallow. The moment Fu Yao moved, he woke up, but he still closed his eyes.

I want to see what Fu Yao is asking for.

Fu Yao walked cross-legged next to Li Yan and stared at Li Yan for a long time in the dim light.

Suddenly, Fu Yao stretched out his leg and put his finger to the east of Li Yan's nose. After feeling the light breath, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Very alive...

Li Yan frowned slightly.

Did you get up in the middle of the night to see if he was... alive?

Just as he was wondering, Fu Yao stretched out her soft fingertips, poked his cheek, and finally kissed his face.

The warm and soft touch made Li Yan's body stiffen. Before he could make any move, Fu Yao lay down on Donglai again, hugging his legs and arms and fell asleep contentedly.

Li Yan slowly opened his eyes on the other side. The place where the kiss had been on his cheek was very warm, and his heart was filled with surprise and uncertainty.

Is Fu Yao’s change really too big?

However, he slowly tightened his legs in the darkness and grasped Fu Yao's soft calves to the center of her legs.

The next month, when Fu Yao woke up, there was no one around him.

His originally chaotic mind immediately became sober. He opened the quilt and glanced around in panic, looking for Li Yan.

Grandma Zhang happened to come in with some water. When she saw Fu Yao's appearance, and combined with what happened last month, she immediately became angry.

Aunt Zhang put the copper basin away, turned around and said softly: "The emperor has gone to court in the morning. Madam, I will wait for you to dress up."

"Morning...morning?" Fu Yao seemed to be thinking hard about the morning with her little head.

After confirming that Li Yan had not disappeared, she breathed a sigh of relief and returned to normal.

Then Fu Yao obediently allowed herself to be manipulated by Grandma Zhang.

Although Grandma Zhang is old, her legs are very smart, and her leg skills in combing her hair are second to none.

It didn't take long for Fu Yao to be tidied up.

Mingyue Fu Yao wore a blue embroidered antique satin dress, which made her slender waist even more graceful, and she wore a large cloak on the outside.

Aunt Zhang gave Fu Yao a bun, and specially inserted a purple polished gold hairdo, which reflected the bright light in the sunlight that came in through the window lattice.

Pretty and charming, yet dignified and generous at the same time.

A flash of surprise flashed across Nanny Zhang's eyes: "I have served so many masters in the palace, but I have never seen anyone as heavenly as my empress."

Fu Yao blinked and remained silent.

"Okay, empress, all the young masters are waiting outside the palace. They should go over too." Grandma Zhang helped Fu Yao get up.

Fu Yao then followed Nanny Zhang to accept the concubine's greetings.

As she walked, she glanced blankly at the three concubines walking to the east.

Two people stood up reluctantly and said to Fu Yaofu: "I would like to pay my respects to the Queen."

After that, without waiting for Fu Yao to speak, he went east on his own.

The news that Fu Yao went to Yangxin Palace last night and then brought Li Yan back to the palace will spread throughout the palace tomorrow morning.

Everyone thought that the stupid queen from before would also compete for favor.

The only concubine who didn't stand up and looked mean-spirited raised a contemptuous smile on her lips, "The queen is really a noble lady and has a lot of things to do. Mingyue will keep us sisters waiting."

Is she the Queen Mother's niece? With the Queen Mother's support, why should that fool argue with her?

Don’t you even see if you are worthy?

Fu Yao looked at Concubine Jing, and her clear and calm eyes were full of repulsion and disgust.

In this life, that person will always compete with her...

Fu Yao opened his mouth and said: "Hit... the board."

She shut up in a low voice and her sentences were incomplete, so no one listened to Ming Hong.

Concubine Jing was used to being arrogant and had never taken Fu Yao seriously. Hearing this, she covered her mouth and chuckled: "If the Queen doesn't know how to shut up, then I won't ask for it. Ping Hong lets

People saw the joke."

They didn't understand Hong, but Granny Zhang was a shrewd and sophisticated person. She immediately raised her voice and said, "My Majesty said, hit the board."

Concubine Jing's expression changed instantly.

She looked angry: "I dare!"

However, Nanny Zhang was not afraid at all and looked at the palace maid aside with cold eyes: "Can't you understand?"

After all, she was an old nun in the palace, and she served her master in a high position all year round. She also had a fierce aura about her, which made people feel frightened for no reason.

Only then did the palace maid react.

The palace maid Xinliu who had been serving Fu Yao looked at the arrogant and domineering concubine Jing and said: "Empress, I have offended you tomorrow. Who told you to disrespect the empress?"

After saying that, the other two people held down Concubine Jing tightly and asked Concubine Jing to stretch out her legs. Xin Liudong kicked up her legs very rudely.

The other two concubines were shocked and confused.

For a while the concubine Jing's voice was heard scolding and shouting in pain.

That incident quickly spread to Yangxin Palace and Cining Palace.

Li Yan's leg paused when he criticized the memorial, and he raised his eyebrows in surprise: "I feel a lot more courageous."

In the Cining Palace, Concubine Jing was holding a handkerchief and crying.

She looked at the Queen Mother with tears in her eyes: "Auntie, please make the decision for him. That fool slapped his legs ten times in front of so many people. Can you make it clear that he doesn't take you seriously?

ah!"

The Queen Mother pressed her temples a little irritably and scolded coldly: "If you fail to succeed, you will fail. Stop crying! The noise is giving the Ai family a headache!"

She arranged for Concubine Jing to enter the palace in order to give birth to an heir to the Eastern Emperor as soon as possible. However, after so long, not only has there been no movement at all, but Ru Ming has also been accused of disrespecting the Queen.

Especially if he is a fool!

The Queen Mother's eyes grew colder and she looked at Nanny Liu beside her: "The Queen hasn't been to Cining Palace for a long time."
