C86 (1/2)

More than twenty geniuses and beauties, and more than thirty candidates, stood around Cheng Rui Pavilion, watching as the emperor and his second wife chatted merrily without being able to interrupt them. When the emperor and the imperial concubine sat down in the pavilion, not a single glance swept over their surroundings. All of them were biting their lower lip, but were unable to do anything about it.

Zhou Yuting was the only one who went to the side of the emperor and empress to do maid matters. The others could not hold a grudge against the high ranking concubine, but Zhou Yuting was exceptionally eye-catching. A small selection was truly shameful, she felt that she had fallen, in order to attract the attention of the emperor.

Zhou Yuting did not mind the gazes that seemed to congeal on her back at all. She said that it was the runner-up, and how could it be stronger than that of the palace maid.

Wang Rong Wen tilted his head and looked at her. Zhou Yuting was very natural, as if she was a palace maid. Zhu Yijun also saw Zhou Yuting under her gaze and said to Wang Rong Wen, ”Isn't she?”

”Right now, it's his Majesty's selection.” Wang Rong He said, ”How is it?”

Zhu Yijun looked at Zhou Yuting, but Zhou Yuting did not become bashful because of it. She held a bottle in her hand and poured Zhu Yijun another cup of wine, and when Zhu Yijun saw her beautiful and jade-like fingers, he said, ”I can't tell that these hands were used in Clothes Washing Bureau.”

”Reporting to Your Majesty, this servant has arrived at Clothes Washing Bureau. Because of the good embroidery, this servant's aunt told me to sew it up on a full-time basis, and did not go into the water.” Zhou Yuting replied.

”Are you feeling wronged?” Zhu Yijun asked. I remember that in the beginning, Mother liked you a lot and often saw you at the Palace. Afterwards, you became a sinner, went to the Clothes Washing Bureau, and then returned to the Palace.

”To be able to see her heavenly beauty and serve His Majesty is already a great gift. This servant is already satisfied.” Zhou Yuting said.

Zhu Yijun nodded and continued to sing and dance. When Imperial Consort Guo saw Zhu Yijun turn his head to look at him, he couldn't tell if he was talking to the Queen or Zhou Yuting. If anyone in the imperial palace hated Zhou Yuting to the bones, it would be Imperial Consort Guo, after all, she had capsized on Zhou Yuting.

If she had any sort of relationship with Zhou Yuting, then forget about it. However, regarding Zhou Yuting, the Imperial Consort Guo did nothing. She thought that since Zhou Yuting had acted so arrogantly and brainlessly, she would dig her own grave.

Imperial Consort Guo had long wanted to get rid of her, but she didn't have the time to do so as a pampered servant. Today, she saw that as a lowly assistant, she actually dared to flatter His Majesty in front of him. Imperial Consort Guo bit her teeth painfully as her smiling face attracted his attention.

But in the end, Zhu Yijun still brought Zhou Yuting back to the Qianqing Palace. Wang Rong withdrew from the feast, sat on the chariot and returned to the palace.

Zhu Yijun returned to the palace and waved his hand for Zhou Yuting to prepare. He then wrote a letter and told Zhang Cheng to send it to. Zhang Cheng lowered his hand. ”Empress, His Majesty wrote a letter to the Empress.”

Wang Rong smiled. ”His Majesty is here, why are you in such a hurry to write to me? Is there something urgent?”

Wang Rong and the letter, open them up and look at Zhu Yijun's writing, why do I feel that Zitong has arranged a banquet to watch the singing and dancing below, and see what is happening above?

Wang Rong couldn't help but giggle as she raised her brush and replied, ”His Majesty is from the imperial harem, so it's only right that I look at him every day. Why does His Majesty need to mind this?”

Zhu Yijun replied without knowing whether to laugh or cry, ”The Queen is flirting with us.”

Zhang Cheng smiled apologetically, ”Your Majesty just likes the Empress to be like this.”

Zhu Yijun was fortunate to be Zhou Yuting at the Qianqing Palace, but he had helped Yu Ting Er.

The grade wasn't high, but they did have a title. Furthermore, there were only a few people that were given the title after being pampered.

Wang Zhixi went to the Kunning Palace s, and when Wang Rong saw her, Wang Zhixi immediately knelt down. ”Elder sister.”

”Get up and speak.” Wang Rong He said.

”Why does big sister want to help Zhou Yuting get favoured?” Wang Zhixi asked.

”I didn't get her favor.” Wang Rong smiled and said, ”I've already said that I won't help anyone from the harem if they want to. Everyone just needs to rely on their own abilities, as long as we follow the rules.”

”If it wasn't for elder sister's reminder, His Majesty wouldn't have noticed that the palace maid that was serving them had changed.” Wang Zhixi said. She was right behind him, and she could see her clearly. Because Wang Rong She had always paid attention to Zhou Yuting, when the emperor saw that she was distracted, he followed her.

”Beauty Wang, are you questioning me right now?” Wang Rong asked.

”I dare not.” Wang Zhixi said, but because there were too many grievances in her heart, she started to cry, ”But why is it her? Elder sister, how much suffering have I suffered at her hands? How many times has big sister suffered from her sarcastic remarks?

”I really forgot what she did to me.” Wang Rong He said, ”After all, it's just some rumors. If it's like this, I'm already used to hearing it since I was young, so I don't think it's anything special.”

”It's you.” Wang Rong said with a smile, ”You used my name to invite Your Majesty to meet me at Gonghou Garden. I knelt for an entire twenty-four hours at the Jiaotai Palace, but my knees were severely injured and I was unable to make it on the journey.

”The pain of having your body cut off, little sister. At that time, you were overjoyed by the emperor for being a beauty. Have you ever thought about the pain of your sister kneeling down and copying books?” Wang Rong He said, ”Compared to Jade Beauty offending me with her words, isn't little sister's fault even more important for me to remember?”

Wang Zhixi was shocked and cried out on the ground, ”Elder sister, little sister knows that I was wrong. ”Little sister was wrong, little sister was really ill at that time, it was because of my temper that I did such a thing.” Wang Zhixi kneeled in front of Wang Rong and hugged her thighs.

”Get up and reply.” Wang Rong He said.

Wang Zhixi was helped up while crying, and sat on the back chair, ”Bring some hot water to help the Beauty Wang tidy up.” Wang Rong She said.
