Yun Jingchu observed the people around him coldly and found that the people sent by Concubine Dong Xian were indeed very well-behaved and respected her as the puppet queen without any slights.
Although the others were not as dedicated as those assigned by Concubine Dong Xian, they were still doing well.
For several days in a row, Yun Jingchu was in a daze during the day and went to bed early at night. Occasionally, if there was important news, Yun Jingxi would personally send it in for her to review.
On the fifth day of her arrival, Dongfang Chen arrived at Fengxiang Palace.
After sending everyone away, Dongfang Chen looked at Yun Jingchu with a complicated expression.
Yun Jingchu's eyes seemed to have no focus, and he scanned Dongfang Chen lightly. When he was about to look elsewhere, he was suddenly attracted by something.
That thing... seems to be the jade pendant she gave to Dongfang Chen. Since he ascended the throne, he has stopped wearing it, and now he wears it again! She doesn't think that Dongfang Chen wears this jade pendant because he thinks it is beautiful or valuable...
The time she gave her the jade pendant was six years ago. At that time, they had just begun to fall in love. At that time, their life was still very difficult. She saw this jade pendant in an ordinary shop and thought it was pretty good.
After giving Dongfang Chen a gift, I bought it for him. At that time, he was very happy to receive this jade pendant. He regarded it as a token of love between them and wore it until he ascended the throne.
Now that Yun Jingshu is dead, he knows very well that the current Queen Yun is a stand-in. So who is he wearing this jade pendant to show off to?
With his thoughts complicated, Yun Jingchu slowly moved his gaze away, as if he did not stop at the jade pendant.
Dongfang Chen didn't care whether the "Queen Yun" in front of him looked at him or not, he just sat at the table and looked at that familiar face.
Recently, in order to balance the power of the various palaces and to promote the expansion of the royal family, he visited each concubine in turn, striving to achieve an equal distribution of rain and dew. In order to avoid criticism from others, he would come to the queen's place every once in a while to have sex.
Showing a look of deep love between an emperor and an empress.
Yun Jingchu sat silently while thinking about things, while Dongfangchen looked at her. She thought that Dongfangchen would leave after sitting for a while, but she didn't expect that it was almost bedtime, and Dongfangchen was still sitting there drinking slowly.
Tea.
Yun Jingchu felt a little sleepy and didn't want to sit like this anymore, so he got up, walked to the bed, kicked off his shoes, pulled back the quilt and got in, then pulled down the bed curtain, turned his back to Dongfang Chen and closed his eyes.
, showing the meaning of expelling guests.
Dongfang Chen blinked in surprise, thought for a moment, blew out the lamp, and still sat there drinking tea.
Dongfang Chen sat until midnight before he got up and left quietly. Yun Jingchu, who had been awake all the time, heard the sound of Dongfang Chen closing the door and leaving, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth: "In order to balance the forces of all parties and appease people's hearts, Dongfang Chen, you
It’s really well-intentioned.”
For the next time, the harem was extremely peaceful.
Concubine Dong Xian acted fairly and managed the harem quietly and orderly; Concubine De, Wang Yuyan, although favored, was a low-key person and never bullied others or caused trouble; Concubine Shu, Yun Xiyao, stayed behind closed doors and restrained herself a lot...
Concubine Shu behaved like this, and Dongfang Chen gradually forgave her and went to her palace more and more often.
