It has been more than a month since the newcomer entered the palace.

I had a leisure time this afternoon, and Empress Li Shushen accompanied the Empress Dowager to drink tea together in Yongfu Palace.

The queen mother gently twisted the leaves of a silver needle tea with two fingers and smiled, "This tea in the Queen's harem is also excellent."

The queen pursed her lips and smiled, and added a little hot water to the teacup in front of the queen. She said, "The things that the emperor admires are naturally excellent."

The queen mother did not answer, but only supported the jade beads on her temples. She pondered for a moment, then slightly opened her lips and said, "No matter how good this thing is, it is just something."

The queen was stunned. A few drops of tea from the cup splashed on her dress. The queen hurriedly pulled out a handkerchief to wipe it. The queen only glanced at her slightly and asked softly, "Empress, among these beautiful girls who entered the palace, whose brand has the emperor turned over?"

The queen was a little surprised when she heard this, Nuonuo agreed and hesitated, "The emperor...he has never turned over the brand of the show girl..."

"Have you not turned over?" The empress dowager frowned slightly, and her tone also raised a little. "The green-headed card of the Ministry of Internal Affairs has been prepared long ago and has also been viewed by the Ai family. How could she not turn over?"

The queen was still looking pissed, "The emperor has been staying in Chonghua Palace these days, and even the court robes have been put on..."

"It's just a mess!" The empress dowager slapped the table hard, and the tea in the cup was so shocked that she spilled out. She was so scared that the palace maid who was serving the side was shocked and quickly fell to the ground.

The queen was shocked when she saw this and hurriedly called Miaochun to wipe Yufei. She also bowed down and said quietly, "Auntie calms down..."

The Empress Dowager realized that she had lost her composure just now, and sighed and said to the Empress, "What do you mean is that the emperor has always been in Chonghua Palace and has never been to the residence of other concubines..."

The queen nodded slightly and replied, "Yes..."

"Even the daughter of the Zhong family has never seen him?"

The queen lowered her head lower again, "Yes..."

"well--"

Another heavy sigh.

The queen's heart also fell heavily with this sigh.

Huizhi walked in quietly and saw the palace maid kneeling all over the ground. The queen was also standing. She knew it was not good. She whispered to the empress dowager for a while and said in a low voice, "Miss Zhong is here, and she is waiting outside now."

The empress dowager's expression slightly cleared, and her tone became gentler, and she said, "Call her in."

Huizhi responded and went out. The queen side slowly looked at the queen and said, "You come and sit down too."

The queen stood up, and soon after, she saw a pretty figure coming gracefully.

Zhong Yuxiu is wearing a long brown long skirt with a long woven dress that stretches to the ground, and her slender waist is bound by a cloud belt, which makes her look even more invisible. She has a seven-treasure coral hairpin on her hair, which makes her face look like a lotus. She smiles in spring, and her clouds are piled with green buns; her lips are blooming with cherry blossoms, and her teeth are fragrant, which is actually a bit more beautiful than Shushen when she saw her a few days ago.

She brought a palace maid and blessed her to the Queen Mother and Queen, "I wish you goodbye to the Queen Mother and Queen Mother."

The Empress Dowager smiled with satisfaction and signaled Huizhi to come forward and help, saying, "Yu'er, come and sit next to Ai's house."

The queen was still stunned when she heard this. She looked at the empress dowager with some doubt in her eyes. The empress dowager saw it and smiled and said to the empress, "The queen hasn't been here for a while. But since Yu'er entered the palace, she has come to Ai's house every day to talk to Ai's house, and Ai's family is also very happy."

The queen felt that her face was burning with a burning burning heat, lowered her head and said, "Please forgive me, my aunt, Shushen has been maintaining trivial matters in the harem these days, and has never had time..."

The queen mother shook her head and waved her hand, "Forget it, the Ai family doesn't mean to blame you. The queen is the lord of the harem, so there are naturally many things to worry about." After that, she turned to Zhong Yuxiu, with a smile on her lips, "It's the same with Yu'er coming to accompany the Ai family."

The queen was shocked and felt that she was about to stand steadily. Seeing this, Yuxiu hurriedly helped her and smiled, "Yuxiu was lucky enough to enter the palace to serve the emperor, thanks to the Empress Dowager and the Empress. Yuxiu will naturally remember this kindness in her heart."

The queen forced a smile and stopped talking.

Queen Li Shushen and Zhong Yuxiu met since childhood and had a deep friendship. Shushen was six years older than Yuxiu. She always regarded Yuxiu as her sister and taught her to play and sing music. Zhong Yuxiu's beauty was not inferior to Li Shushen. She was even more cute and cute than Shushen. When Li Shushen was married, Zhong Yuxiu was only twelve years old, but she was already a peerless beauty. Now five years have passed, and she has become more charming. Once she entered the palace, Zhong Yuxiu became the position of beauty, the highest position among this generation of beautiful girls, and she served a husband with Li Shushen's sisters.

The taste of it is self-evident. Zhong Yuxiu was happy to see her old friend again. However, Li Shushen was a little embarrassed at this time. He was once the princess and the object of many young sisters including Zhong Yuxiu. But now he has been promoted to the position of queen and has died in name only. He is the mother of a country above ten thousand people, but in private he is like an abandoned woman in the cold palace and has never seen the holy face all day long. This made many people laugh at her. The only thing that comforted her was that Zhong Yuxiu was not favored by her. Thinking of this, the queen's face looked a little better.

At this time, Cheng Dehai, the headmaster of the emperor, made a sign in. After giving the gift, he said to the empress dowager with a smile, "The emperor asked the slave to send Yu Ruyi, who was tributed to the empress dowager this year, and ask the empress dowager to take a look."

The queen mother took a sip of tea and refused to let the palace people pick it up, just saying, "Why didn't the emperor come?"

"Emperor..." Cheng Dehai's eyes rolled and he hurriedly smiled, "The emperor can't pull himself away now, so let the servant come here."

The Queen Mother is cold and said, "Go and call the emperor."

Cheng Dehai was startled and quickly knelt down and said timidly, "Emperor... The Emperor is now in Chonghua Palace..."

"Bastard!" The empress dowager suddenly burst into anger with a blue eyebrows, which scared everyone to death. She let out a long sigh and slowly said to Cheng Dehai, "Forget it, you go back."

Cheng Dehai was relieved and hurriedly handed over Yu Ruyi to Aunt Huizhi's hands and quietly retreated.

Zhong Yuxiu poured a cup of tea and put it in front of the empress dowager, and asked softly, "That living in Chonghua Palace, but... is the Empress Xian Concubine?"

The queen immediately looked up and looked at her. Zhong Yuxiu understood and did not dare to speak again.

The Empress Dowager nodded slightly, pulled the queen with one wall, and pulled Zhong Yuxiu with the other wall, and said to the two in a deep voice, "The Virtuous Concubine is definitely not a favorite of the harem. You two have been sisters since childhood. After entering the harem, you must support each other."
