The queen's bedroom of the Qi tribe is not far behind Bai Jingrong's palace, and closer to Ji Zhan's palace.
Next to her palace, there are two rows of palaces, where the concubines and wives of the harem live.
In the entire palace of the Qi people, only the queen mother and queen are eligible to live in an independent palace with a garden. The other concubines and ladies, no matter how favored they are, live in the same two-story horizontal building next to the queen's palace.
The only difference is that there are people in a big place, and there are people who really only have a small room.
Luo Jun walked by carrying something and couldn't help but look at the two rows of white buildings.
There was no one there at this time, and it looked very quiet and solemn.
When the maid who guided her saw this, she thought she had never seen anything like this when she first entered the palace, so she said: "That's where the ladies live. At this time, the ladies are all in the Queen's Palace, so there is no one there."
Luo Junyao asked curiously: "In addition to going to pay respects to the Queen, can the ladies just stay there?"
The maid looked at her strangely and said, "You can still go for a walk in the garden in front."
"Wouldn't that be boring?" The garden isn't very big either.
Of course, in Luo Junyao's eyes, even the Royal Garden of Dasheng Palace is not that big. After visiting it a few times, it will still feel boring.
"You can eat, drink, and don't have to do anything. You can also go out and play in the garden. What's wrong?" the maid couldn't help but said, "It's much better than those of us who wait on people, right? If you're a good lady at home, you'll often have
The family members came to the palace to visit and send some things, but those who were sent here..."
Luo Junyao understood that the status of the girl who was given as a gift was naturally inferior to that of the noble girls of the Qi tribe.
Without family support, life would naturally be much more difficult.
However, in the eyes of the maids in the palace, it is much more comfortable to be served than to serve others.
Luo Junyao thought of Zhu'er, Princess Yuzhu of Wumo City.
Although the spies said that she was living well in the palace, it was still sad for such a little girl who was used to being free to be sent to this unfamiliar palace.
Luo Junyao followed the maid all the way into the Queen's Palace. As expected, the hall was filled with women from Ji Zhan's harem.
Luo Junyao glanced over and soon saw Zhu'er sitting at the back of the crowd.
She didn't look bad, but the smile on her face was faint and didn't look real.
Even though the eyes of all the women in the hall fell on Luo Junyao who walked in, Zhu'er just glanced at him calmly and then lowered her eyes and ignored him.
"Chu Chu has met the queen."
The queen looked at the girl in front of her with a somewhat complicated expression.
"There's no need to be polite, Chu Chu. Mother asked you to come over, but what's the matter?"
Luo Junyao held up the box in his hand and said, "This is what the Queen Mother ordered Chu Chu to send to the Queen Mother."
The queen was a little surprised that the queen mother would send someone to give her something?
The Queen Mother used to be very kind to her daughter-in-law. After all, her family background could really help Ji Zhan a lot, but that was all.
In the past, the king was obedient to the queen mother, and the queen mother would not be weak at all even if she was an outsider and faced the queen, a daughter-in-law with a distinguished family background.
On the contrary, after Ji Zhan succeeded to the throne, the relationship between mother and son took a turn for the worse, and the Queen Mother naturally disliked her as her daughter-in-law.
The queen is from a noble family of the Qi tribe. Even though she has been with Bai Jingrong and her son for several years, she still cannot understand Bai Jingrong at all.
The Queen Mother was an outsider, and she finally supported her son to inherit the throne. It was time for the mother and son to work together to consolidate the throne and power. Why did the mother and son have a falling out before the king's position was firmly established?
In the Queen's view, Bai Jingrong's move was somewhat disregarding the overall situation. If she were the Queen Mother, what would she not be able to tolerate for the sake of her son?
After all, the queen still wanted to face her husband, so she was actually a little dissatisfied with Bai Jingrong, the queen mother.
"What did your mother give you?" asked the queen.
Others also looked at the box in Luo Junyao's hand curiously. Everyone knew what the relationship between the Queen and the Queen Mother was like. Today, the Queen Mother suddenly gave something to the Queen, which always made people feel a little strange.
Luo Jun shook his head and said, "I don't know Chu Chu."
The queen was not embarrassed and signaled the maid next to her to come forward to take the box and open it.
When he opened the box, he saw a gold dagger inside.
The scabbard is made of gold and inlaid with gorgeous gems, making it look gorgeous and dazzling.
Even the noble ladies of the Qi tribe who came from extraordinary backgrounds couldn't help but exclaim in surprise when they saw him.
Luo Junyao was confused, why did Bai Jingrong give a dagger to the queen?
Luo Junyao looked at the queen without trace, but saw that the queen's face was stiff for a moment, and the hands hanging by her sides were clenched tightly into fists. Luo Junyao clearly saw that the queen's hands trembled for a moment, and then she quickly grabbed them.
Your own clothes.
But it only happened in a moment, and even the concubine sitting closest to the queen didn't notice it.
Everyone praised the Queen Mother for her love for the Queen, and they were willing to give such a valuable dagger to the Queen.
The queen smiled, as if nothing had happened at that moment. She put away the dagger and said to Luo Junyao: "Miss Chuchu has come to deliver it in person. Please thank my mother for me. I will go there and say thank you in person later."
Luo Jun shook his head in agreement, and the queen didn't say much. She just said she was tired and sent Luo Junyao and the concubines out.
Everyone had to get up and leave. Except for the door, there were some people complaining like a joke. The Queen and the Queen only cared about admiring the treasure, so they were kicked out.
Luo Junyao felt that the queen probably had no intention of appreciating the dagger at this time.
"Ah?! I'm sorry!" Luo Junyao looked at Zhu'er who bumped into him in surprise.
When she went out just now, Pearl was still some distance away from her, but now she suddenly bumped into her. I guess it wasn't because of my carelessness.
Luo Junyao raised his head and looked over, and sure enough he saw a Qi woman a few steps away looking at the two of them provocatively.
Luo Junyao frowned slightly and was about to speak, but Zhu'er pulled his sleeve.
Zhu'er shook her head towards her and whispered: "I'm sorry, I accidentally bumped into Miss Chu Chu."
Seeing her cautious look, Luo Junyao felt a little sad.
"Is this lady... also just entering the palace?"
Zhu'er nodded and didn't want to say anything more. She apologized to Luo Junyao again and left in a hurry.
After she had gone far, the Qi woman came over, smiled softly next to Luo Junyao and said, "Like Miss Chu Chu, she has just entered the palace recently. I heard she is still a princess of some kind.
What's the use? It's just a plaything given to the king by her father."
Luo Junyao looked at the woman without saying anything, but the woman became more and more proud and raised her eyebrows and said: "Miss Chu Chu's luck is much better than hers. She was obviously a slave girl, but now she seems to be a princess. She is obviously a princess, but she has become a plaything."
Luo Junyao suddenly said: "What about Madam?"
"What?" The woman was stunned.
Luo Junyao said slowly and calmly: "They are obviously the same noble girls of the Qi tribe. Some are queens and some are concubines."
These words obviously touched the woman's pain. Her expression changed and she raised her hand to hit Luo Junyao.
Luo Junyao grabbed her wrist one step ahead of her, "Madam, the Queen Mother told me that you wish the Queen Mother would die. Is it true? I heard that she is your biological sister."
The woman's face instantly turned pale, she glared at Luo Junyao hatefully, turned around and left.
Luo Junyao looked at her leaving figure and sighed helplessly.
Misfortune falls from heaven.
Luo Junyao didn't know that every move he made in the Queen's Palace was reported to Bai Jingrong.
But even if she knew, she wouldn't care, she is Chu Chu now.
When he returned to Bai Jingrong Palace, he was immediately stopped by Yun Chang.
"The queen has summoned you."
"Thank you Aunt Yun Chang." Luo Junyao smiled cutely and sweetly, but Yun Chang didn't appreciate it and snorted coldly and turned away.
Bai Jingrong glanced at Luo Junyao who came in and said softly: "You're back? How is it in the Queen's Palace?"
Luo Junyao said respectfully: "Go back to your Majesty, the Queen has her slaves thank you for her, and then come back to thank you in person."
"Thank you?" Bai Jingrong snorted, "Do you think she likes the gift I gave her?"
Luo Junyao hesitated for a moment and then said: "The Queen looks very happy, but..."
"But what?"
"I seemed to see something wrong in the Queen's eyes for a moment, as if she was trying her best to endure some emotion." Luo Junyao said, "It's just that the time was too short, and I didn't dare to stare at the Queen, and I wasn't sure."
"After that, the queen sent all the ladies out together with me. I thought... maybe the dagger the queen gave her was not an ordinary gift?"
Bai Jingrong looked at her for a while, then chuckled and said, "She is a smart girl with good eyesight. Come here, sit down and drink tea with me."
"Thank you, ma'am."
Luo Junyao obediently sat down opposite her, and after looking at Bai Jingrong, he realized that her face looked a little bad, and she even had a light layer of powder on her face.
"Did you...didn't you sleep well last night?" Luo Junyao asked softly.
Bai Jingrong sighed softly and said, "I really didn't sleep well, and I felt a little upset."
"Could Chu Chu help relieve your worries?" Luo Junyao asked with concern.
Bai Jingrong looked at her and said, "You are a little girl, how can you help me?"
"It seems that I can't really help you, but... if you are so powerful, will you still have a lot of troubles?" Luo Junyao said with confusion on his face.
Bai Jingrong stretched out his hand and tapped her forehead and said, "This is not something a smart girl can ask. How can a person live in this world without worries?"
Luo Junyao smiled and said, "If I have beautiful clothes, delicious food, and peace every day, I won't have any worries."
Bai Jingrong sighed: "Safety, how easy is it?"
Luo Jun shook his head and drank tea. Bai Jingrong didn't really want a girl as smart and powerful as her to be his heir.
As for Bai Jingrong's worries, Bai Jingrong left the palace last night, probably to see King Chaqin.
It seems that the negotiation did not go smoothly.
No wonder she is upset, her son is disobedient, and her new collaborator is not going well. Enemies inside and outside the Qi tribe are all eyeing her. If it were her, Luo Junyao felt that she would be so anxious that she would lose her hair every day.
"Yun Chang told me just now that Ah Rong went to see you?" Bai Jingrong said softly: "What did he tell you?"
Luo Junyao's slightly drooped eyelashes trembled slightly and whispered: "Your Highness Ji Rong, said... the king, the king may want to marry me, or... kill me, so I should be more careful."
"Oh?" Bai Jingrong said meaningfully: "Then do you think A-Zhan will marry you or kill you?"
Luo Junyao said with some fear: "Probably, kill, kill me? How can the king like me? Besides, that day..."
"Are you afraid?" Bai Jingrong asked.
Luo Jun shook his head and looked at Bai Jingrong pitifully.
Bai Jingrong reached out and patted the back of her hand and said, "Don't be afraid, as long as I am here, no one in this palace dares to kill you."
"Thank you, thank you, empress." Really, I don't believe it.
Bai Jingrong sighed and said: "My son is really disobedient. If he wants to marry you, I would be more relieved. Although you look like a little girl who is smart and courageous, you are still young after all. In this palace,
Life is not easy. If A Zhan is willing to take care of you, I will feel more at ease."
"..." If you worry so much, if I were really just Chu Chu, I would think you were really my own mother.
Luo Junyao sighed in his heart, Bai Jingrong's thoughts were really beyond the comprehension of normal people.
She is not sure what Bai Jingrong wants to do now. If she says that she really wants to train her, it is definitely a joke. If she says that she wants to use her to deal with Ji Zhan, it seems a little too much to do more than seek the distance. There are many ways to deal with Ji Zhan.
There is no need to train a new person, and it is a new person that Ji Zhan is hostile to from the beginning.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! It can’t be... Bai Jingrong wants to be the Queen Mother, so she needs someone to give her grandchildren, right?
It's a joke. Ji Zhan's own throne may not be secure yet. At this time, there is no way to help the young master take the throne.
The Qi people do not have as many ancestral rules as in the Central Plains. The king's adult brothers are more likely to succeed than their underage sons.
so……
Is it just deliberately used to confuse the public?
To attract the attention of Ji Zhan and Ji Rong to her, so that Bai Jingrong can cause trouble secretly?
In this way, her chess piece is probably a short-term consumable, and Bai Jingrong really doesn't care much about her safety. If she dies, maybe Bai Jingrong can take the opportunity to have a fight with Ji Zhan.
Luo Junyao instantly felt that his situation was very unsafe.
"What's wrong?" Bai Jingrong looked at her with a smile and said softly.
"No, I'm just a little, a little scared." Luo Jun whispered.
What a beautiful woman, but she is a snake and scorpion.
Late at night, Luo Junyao sat alone in his room in a daze.
Life in the palace is actually quite boring. The lights are turned off early everywhere, and you can't just walk around at will.
It was actually not too late at this time, but the entire palace had fallen into silence and darkness, with only a few lights still on.
Luo Junyao casually put away the books on the table and prepared to get up to rest. When he turned around, he was almost startled.
The door was pushed open from the outside, and a person flashed in.
Luo Jun almost shot the concealed weapon in his hand, but stopped when he saw the figure clearly.
Luo Junyao raised his hand to extinguish the candle on the table, then pulled down the felt curtain on the window, and then he flew into the arms of the visitor.
"Why are you here? This palace is very dangerous." Luo Junyao whispered.
Xie Yan patted her vest gently and said, "Don't worry, it's fine."
Luo Junyao said: "Bai Jingrong usually has at least three first-class masters stationed in this palace." Although he is far behind Qu Fang and Qu Tiange, his strength should not be underestimated.
In the past few days in the palace, Luo Junyao did not do anything.
At least she figured out the guard arrangements in Bai Jingrong Palace, and was about to go back for a walk when Xie Yan came to the palace first.
Xie Yan said: "There is only one in the palace now."
"Bai Jingrong left the palace again?" Luo Junyao understood immediately.
Usually the three masters are hidden in the palace and on standby, but if Bai Jingrong wants to go out, someone will accompany her.
Xie Yan pulled her into the inner room, first lit the candlestick in the inner room, looked around and then said: "It seems that Bai Jingrong treats you well."
In the royal palace of the Qi people, many concubines and ladies could not achieve such living conditions.
Luo Junyao smiled and said, "That's natural. If she wants to use me as a pawn, she has to give me some benefits, right?"
Xie Yan lowered his eyes and looked at her, "You're not happy if you stay outside, so you come to the palace to be her pawn?"
Luo Jun shook his eyes and said, "At least I didn't let her really become your mother-in-law."
Xie Yan slowly raised his hand. Luo Junyao thought he was going to make a move and quickly wanted to get out of the way. However, Xie Yan just stretched out his hand and pinched her cheek, "Shao Yao is really powerful."
He said it with a bit of gritted teeth, which shows that being a son-in-law for Bai Jingrong is quite stressful even for the regent of Dasheng.
"I was wrong." Luo Junyao raised a hand to make an oath, "I will never make my own decisions again."
Xie Yan sighed helplessly, took her into his arms again and said, "I know you won't take risks casually, and you know why you came to the palace."
Luo Junyao nodded and said: "Since you have to deal with Ji Zhan and Bai Jingrong, it is always better to have someone in the palace to deal with it." They don't have time to spend a long time in the royal court of the Qi clan, so Xie Yan must take action if he doesn't take action.
It's going to be a fatal blow.
"It seems that Bai Jingrong really can't tolerate Ji Zhan's son, but it doesn't seem like she wants to replace him with Ji Rong." Luo Junyao said in a low voice: "I haven't found out what she wants to do yet."
Xie Yan said softly: "I'm afraid she is in a dilemma now. King Chaqin is not a vegetarian. This is our opportunity."
"What do you need me to do?" Luo Junyao asked.
Xie Yan pondered for a moment and whispered: "Bai Jingrong will never be able to gain a foothold in the Qi tribe on her own, and it is impossible for her to put all her chips on King Chaqin."
Luo Junyao understood, "So you suspect that she has a collaborator?"
Xie Yan nodded and said: "This person can only be the royal family of the Qi tribe."
"I will find out." Luo Jun shook his head and replied.
Xie Yan lowered his head and kissed her forehead, "Thank you for your hard work."
Luo Junyao smiled and said: "I just said that my entry into the palace is still of some use. What are you going to do with King Chaqin? If he really cooperates with Bai Jingrong, will he betray us?"
Xie Yan shook his head and said: "He doesn't want to cooperate with Bai Jingrong, he wants to take advantage of both sides. Ignore him, he won't do such a stupid thing. It won't do him any good to betray us at this time."
"Okay." Luo Jun shook his head and replied. She always believed what Xie Yan said.
