”Yes.” Zhang Cheng said.
Zhu Yijun waited until the sky darkened, but he did not see any palace maid with Kunning Palace sending anything over. The stingy His Majesty threw another ink stone. However, the beauty serving the bed still had an expression of gratitude towards the empress.
”The cloth and jewelry are very good.” The beauty said. I have never seen such a good thing. ”
Zhu Yijun was frustrated, he did not need anyone to attend to him, and directly ordered them to return.
It was unknown whether this beauty was doing it on purpose or not, but she did not accept the favor and return to the palace. She told her other sisters that she felt wronged and only praised empress a few times before the emperor suddenly turned hostile and chased her back. Could it be that His Majesty and empress are really incompatible?
While Zhu Yijun's Qianqing Palace was sulking, one night was enough for the imperial concubine to magnify the situation by a hundredfold.
”After Wang Rong and the others woke up from their morning sleep, they heard about what happened to the sleeping beauty yesterday. The good mood they had after getting rich instantly disappeared. ”Wear some clothes for me today, and I still need to go and confess.”
When all the consorts arrived outside the Kunning Palace Palace, they were informed to go back immediately. The Empress had already left for the Ci Ning Palace.
When Wang Rong arrived at the Palace of Gentle Serenity, the Empress Dowager Chen saw her haggard appearance. ”What happened between us, your majesty? Wasn't it fine before? ”
”If I had known, I wouldn't be so worried right now.” Wang Rong said with a wry smile, ”I only heard about what happened to Beauty Tian yesterday morning, and only then did I know that Your Majesty's opinion of me has become so serious.”
”If you do anything wrong, apologize to His Majesty. To speak softly, His Majesty's heart is actually quite soft. ” The Empress Dowager Chen said.
”This son is prepared to pay respects before heading to Qianqing Palace to beg for forgiveness.” Wang Rong He said, ”After all, the imperial harem is rumoured to be at odds with the Emperor. It's not a good thing.”
When Wang Rong went to Ci'an Palace with Empress Dowager Li, he looked at her and said, ”Looks like Your Majesty is really angry this time.” Have you never requested for an apology from His Majesty? ”
”Your son is preparing to go soon.” Wang Rong He said.
”Go.” The Empress Dowager Li said, ”His Majesty is very soft-hearted. If you kneel in front of him, he won't be angry.”
”Yes.” Wang Rong said with a lowered eyebrow.
Wang Rong and those who had just left the Tzu An palace did not return to Kunning Palace, but instead went straight to the Qianqing Palace. Unfortunately for them, since his Majesty had gone to the Huangji Hall, he was probably busy with government affairs today and had not returned to the palace yet.
The eunuch asked Wang Rong He to wait in the hall. Wang Rong He shook his head and stood at the foot of the hall, waiting. She was here to ask for forgiveness, and it wasn't sincere for her to sit in a warm place and wait.
Zhu Yijun rubbed his forehead as he returned to the palace. All the officials were discussing about the matters of the imperial court and their ears were buzzing.
Only after getting off the emperor's carriage did he see Wang Rong He standing outside the palace. ”This concubine pays her respects to Your Majesty.” Wang Rong said while half-squatting.
”When did you arrive?” Zhu Yijun said, ”Why aren't you going in, and why are you standing outside?”
”Your concubine is here to seek forgiveness from His Majesty.” Wang Rong He said.
”What crime have you committed?” Zhu Yijun asked.
”Please enlighten me, your Majesty.” Wang Rong He said.
Zhu Yijun scoffed, ”If Empress feels that she's not wrong, there's no need to ask for forgiveness, she'll go by herself.”
After Zhu Yijun entered the palace, he should have followed him in at this time. Wang Rong knew that she came to Qianqing Palace to ask for peace, not to incite conflict.
Since you aren't happy hearing my name, then this is it. A benevolent and childless Empress Xian Ming was originally the direction she was preparing. Since this is what you want, why do you need to make up for it by going against your heart?
Wang Rong turned and went back to the Kunning Palace, because she was here to apologize, she didn't even sit on the palanquin, and now she was also going to walk back step by step.
Zhu Yijun turned around, but could not see Wang Rong who came in, ”Where's the Queen?”
Zhang Cheng was almost unable to control the softness of his legs and wanted to kneel down. empress's courage was always on his estimation, ”empress has returned to the Kunning Palace.”
Zhu Yijun laughed coldly, ”You're right.”
”How arrogant.” Zhu Yijun could not resist patting the table and said.
