After more than a month, Jingsu stepped into the Peony Palace again. He was still dressed in such plain clothes, with his hair tied up high in a bun, jade-colored flowers dotted with emerald beads, and a pea-green silk satin robe on his arms, looking slim and graceful.

Come, with all your arrogance and indifference.

Jingsu's arrival caused quite a commotion. Almost all the concubines turned their heads to look at her, and all kinds of eyes fell on her without exception. She just ignored them and came in the eyes of everyone.

Qiantou bowed and saluted the queen, then sat down in her seat.

There seemed to be a flash of strange color in the Queen's eyes, but she quickly covered it up and looked at her with a smile, "Concubine Li is feeling better."

Jingsu bowed slightly and replied: "Thank you for your concern, Queen, I am fine now." Her observance of rules and etiquette made the Queen secretly sigh in relief, and her smile was filled with a hint of warmth.

"That's good. You should take more care of yourself in the future and don't let the emperor and me worry."

Jingsu nodded in agreement.

Then Concubine Zhuang on the opposite side sneered, "According to me, since Concubine Li is not in good health, it's better to use less ice."

Jingsu raised his head and glanced at her, took a sip of the tea that had been placed aside, leaned back lazily on his chair, stared at Concubine Zhuang's increasingly distorted face, and raised a smile.

"What Concubine Zhuang said is, why don't I ask you to go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and tell them not to send ice to Furong Palace."

"You," Concubine Zhuang's lips trembled with anger, "You know that I don't have this ability, and yet you deliberately said this to set me up. Concubine Li, what are your intentions?"

Jingsu Wanran smiled, took out the silk handkerchief and wiped the corners of her mouth, and said slowly: "Concubine Zhuang has really wronged me by saying this. It is obviously you who are jealous of me, and you made sarcastic remarks about me. How can you say it was arranged by me?"

Got you."

Concubine Zhuang's cheeks trembled and her lips closed together, but she couldn't think of a word to reply.

Everyone was sighing, and naturally no one said anything to support any side. Even the queen watched from the sidelines. Concubine Zhuang was ashamed, annoyed and angry, so she took a big sip of tea to vent her anger.

Jingsu still seemed to be smiling but not smiling, her eyes seemed to be looking at Concubine Zhuang, but it seemed like nothing was in her eyes.

Originally, the topic had reached this point. Since the two of them stopped talking, it should be settled. Unexpectedly, the Yungui concubine looked to both sides and saw that no one spoke. She lowered her eyes and thought for a while, then suddenly smiled and said: "Concubine.

I don’t know whether to say a word or not.”

Everyone's eyes were attracted to her again.

Jingsu also raised his eyes and saw that the Yungui concubine was wearing a very plain-colored dress with a smooth jade face. After first meeting, she did look a bit similar to her. No wonder she thought she looked familiar when she first met.

It's just that she doesn't have that coquettish and shy little girl look.

She didn't say anything, but the Queen spoke, "If you have anything to say, Yungui concubine, just say it. There's no need to hesitate."

"Yes," Concubine Yungui suddenly stood up and bowed towards Jingsu, "If my concubine's words have offended Concubine Li, please forgive me." Since she said such words, it was obvious that what she said next would be what she said.

Offend Jingsu.

Jingsu naturally understood and smiled without saying a word.

Concubine Yungui then said: "In my opinion, even though Concubine Li is a noble one, she is not as good as Concubine Jing, who is also pregnant with the Empress. She spends as much money as ice in the Furong Palace. Concubine Li is a bit extravagant."

Why don’t the empress propose to the emperor and distribute some to the neighboring palaces, so as to preserve the empress’ good name?”

Jingsu looked at her casually, the smile on his lips lost its warmth, he straightened his body by leaning on the armrest, and said with a thin smile: "Since you have such ideas, why don't you go and advise the queen yourself? It will not only enhance your reputation, but also win over others."

Wouldn’t it kill two birds with one stone to receive such praise?”

The Yungui concubine smiled softly and bowed her head, "I'm a concubine who speaks softly and doesn't dare to show her embarrassment in front of the Holy Master."

"Really?" Jingsu said leisurely, "How dare you dare to be so presumptuous in front of me."

The Yungui concubine hurriedly bowed, "I don't dare."

Jingsu felt bored after looking at it, so he stroked the jade tassels hanging down by his ears, and glanced at everyone, "I know that you are jealous of the lotus palace. Today, in front of the Queen, I will

I'll leave it at that. If any of you are curious about it, just go and get it from me. No one in Furong Palace dares to say no."

As she was about to finish her words, Concubine Zhuang curled her lips and said, "Who doesn't know that those ices are meant by the Emperor? How dare we?"

Jing Su Meifeng raised his eyebrows, but after all he didn't have an attack, he just sneered and said, "Why don't I send someone to send Bing to Concubine Zhuang's palace?"

Concubine Zhuang was stunned and scolded: "I don't care about this."

Speaking of this, Jingsu also lowered his face and scolded coldly, "Then why are you holding me tight and not letting go!"

Jingsu rarely said such serious words. Concubine Zhuang was also frightened for a moment. She was stunned. She moved her lips when she wanted to argue, but she didn't say anything. She just stared at Jingsu with her resentful eyes, just like Jingsu.

It's like killing her biological father.

But in fact, Jingsu never remembered how he offended Concubine Zhuang, which made her act like a hedgehog with its thorns erect when he saw her, and instinctively attacked her.

Seeing that the atmosphere was not going well, the queen hurriedly came out to smooth things over, with a steady smile, "Okay, okay, everyone, please stop saying a word. Concubine Zhuang, you too. You know that Concubine Li is in better health, so why bother messing with her again?

After all, you are an old man in the palace, so you don’t know how to make way for those who come after you."

Concubine Zhuang lowered her head and muttered: "I know I was wrong."

The queen glanced at her, then turned to look at Concubine Jing: "As for Concubine Jing's palace, I have already invited the emperor, and the emperor has given his approval. Fresh ice will be sent immediately. The emperor's grace is so great.

Concubine, don’t think too much, just focus on raising the baby with peace of mind. If there is anything missing, just tell me, I will make the decision for you."

Concubine Jing thanked her and said, "Thank you very much, Queen, for your care."

The queen nodded with a smile and said: "Okay, okay, I'm tired too, so let's all disperse."

After leaving the Peony Palace, Jingsu did not sit in a soft sedan, but walked slowly, with Yao Xi following behind her. She heard someone calling from behind: "Concubine Li, wait a moment." Looking back, it was Concubine Jing who was holding her belly and leaning towards her.

She came over, her pace a bit hurried, and the maid beside her was busy supporting her.

Jingsu paused for a moment, then stood there waiting for her. The two of them bowed to each other, and she stepped forward to support Concubine Jing and walked together to the shade. Concubine Jing was anxious to say something, but she stopped her.

When the two of them arrived at a pavilion and saw no one around, Jingsu let her go and raised her eyes to look at the magnificent scenery, almost melancholy: "Concubine Jing also saw the scene just now. I'd better say goodbye to me in the future."

I came too close to avoid hurting you."

Concubine Jing seemed not to have expected that she would suddenly say such words. She was slightly startled, and then said with a smile: "What did Concubine Li say? I admire Concubine Li's courage and wisdom very much."

When Jingsu heard this, he showed a sad expression and smiled sadly, "I really can't bear the kind words of Concubine Jing. Concubine Jing is a blessed person. Jingsu will only harm your happiness. In the future,

Let’s not meet in private, take care!”

After saying this, she turned around and left.
