"Cuiwei Palace?" Shen Manyun couldn't figure out which concubine's residence this was for a while.
"Cuiwei Palace is the palace of Li Zhaoyi, and Li Zhaoyi is the head of the nine concubines. I heard that the emperor and Li Zhaoyi had a friendship before Li Zhaoyi entered the palace. Li Zhaoyi was in great glory when she entered the palace." Huixin explains Shen Manyun's doubts.
"So what? Isn't Ben Jieyu the emperor's favorite?" Shen Manyun didn't care.
Huixin wants to say that the emperor's heart is unpredictable, but it is also true that the emperor loves his master.
"The emperor is not the kind of man who wants to be happy and has nothing to worry about." Shen Manyun's words were more like trying to convince himself.
She didn't believe that the emperor's kindness to her these days was just superficial.
Huixin didn't dare to answer the question casually. Since ancient times, emperors have always been unlucky. She was not as optimistic as her master.
On this day, the emperor not only went to Cuiwei Palace, but also went to Hanyunxuan after having lunch in Cuiwei Palace and accompanied An Rong to visit the Imperial Garden.
Knowing that Long Live Lord was in the imperial garden, the other concubines tried their best to meet him by chance.
The news that Huixin got was that Long live the Lord was surrounded by many beauties and he was happy to miss Shu.
"Master, why don't we also go to the Royal Garden?" Hui Xin just opened her mouth and was given a sharp look by Shen Manyun.
The master has always been proud and arrogant, and she does not bother to compete for favors like this. But this is the palace, and the supreme one is the Long Live Lord. If the master does not fight for it, it does not mean that the other concubines will abide by their duties.
"Did I mistake the emperor?" Shen Manyun murmured silently.
She thought that Long Live Lord treated her differently, otherwise why would Long Live Lord come to accompany her every day after she entered the palace? If the Emperor was willing, he could force her to sleep with him.
But instead of forcing her, the emperor doted on her more and more.
It has only been ten days, and the emperor has not yet obtained her body. How could he fall in love with someone else?
Shen Manyun was very sad this time, and Mu Ci was miserable in the imperial garden that time.
She was purely attracted by Yingchun. Yingchun said it was boring to be bored in the house all day and wanted to go out for a walk, so she took Yingchun to visit the garden.
As luck would have it, God didn't open his eyes. Not long after shopping, Dugu Liancheng came with An Rong.
When she learned that the emperor and An Rong were here, she didn't want to meet them, so she simply hid in the rockery. She thought they would leave after wandering around for a while, but other concubines heard the news and came to make a presence in front of the emperor.
I felt sorry for her and Yingchun. There was limited space in the rockery, and there were two of them standing there. After a long time, not only the feet were tired, but the neck was also tired.
She even wondered if the emperor lingered here on purpose. Otherwise, the imperial garden was so big, why did he choose to set up tables and chairs in this location?
Yingchun's endurance was pretty good, but she was afraid of bugs. A caterpillar happened to crawl to her feet and was about to climb onto her shoes. She was so frightened that she took two steps back, but bumped into a stone wall.
For a while, the dust on the stone wall washed down.
Li Yu's ears were pointed and she shouted in a sharp voice: "Who is it? Come out!"
Yingchun looked at Mu Ci with a grimace, knowing that she was in trouble.
Seeing that his whereabouts were revealed, Mu Ci felt calm and walked out of the rockery as if nothing had happened.
"Queen Mother!" Dugu Liancheng looked at the woman emerging from the rockery, his eyes fixed.
Today, Mu Ci is still dressed in a simple and elegant way. But the weather is cold, so she is wearing thin clothes and a white cloak covering her body. Her palm-sized face is hidden under the white hood, which makes her skin look as pure as snow and ice-cold.
