Wang Zhixi thought for a long time but did not have any ideas, she felt a headache coming, thinking that since the Empress had summoned her family today, then no matter what, she would summon the imperial concubine tomorrow. Wang Zhixi went to Imperial Lower Consort Lan, wanting to ask what kind of things she prepared for the Empress.
The Imperial Lower Consort Lan made a pair of tiger shoes and a tiger hat, preparing to gift it to the empress, ”Does the Empress still lack some rare and precious treasures? ”What we can give the Empress is just a little bit of kindness.”
”Even if you did, how could the Empress not worry to use it?” Wang Zhixi said. When you were pregnant, you made yourself some clothes. They were given to you by others, do you dare to use them?
”Whether or not the Empress uses it is her business. I just need to send it over.” Imperial Lower Consort Lan said that she only treated Wang Zhixi like a normal beauty.
”empress being pregnant is a great joy for the harem, and I, as her younger sister, am also very happy. Logically speaking, His Majesty should have agreed to let the members of the Duke Yongnian Palace enter the palace to accompany the children. I don't know why the Empress did not agree.” Wang Zhixi said, ”Actually when I was in the palace, I should have gone to serve empress.”
”You will serve them? How can you serve the Empress without the common sense of being pregnant? ” ”You don't even know how to make up for your injuries.”
”What do you mean?” Wang Zhixi's face alternated between green and white, ”How would I know that you're heavily injured? Should I know how to heal my wounds? ”
”I didn't say that you knew?” ”Imperial Lower Consort Lan laughed coldly. I only said that you don't even know this, how can you have the nerve to say that you want to serve empress? ”
”Actually, how could this empress be interested in something like this? But no matter what, we have to prepare it, or else it wouldn't be worth it if we came empty-handed to congratulate you.” Imperial Consort Guo laughed.
”This is all thanks to your kind intentions, I appreciate it.” Wang Rong said with a smile.
”Empress, I have just entered the palace, there are not many good things, and the things I send are not as good as those of the other sisters. Empress, don't blame me, in order to make up for Empress, I will serve the Empress with tea at the Kunning Palace.”
The fragrance of the Imperial Lower Consort Zheng gushed out of Wang Rong's nose as she leaned back and covered her mouth with a handkerchief. The Imperial Lower Consort Zheng is too kind, I can't treat the last wife as the palace maid. You just have to dress up and wait on His Majesty. ” In his heart, however, he had a whole new level of respect for the Imperial Lower Consort Zheng.
Just like Imperial Consort Guo, even if she really wanted to curry favor with her, she would not reveal the slightest bit of fear in front of her. This was her pride in being the first to enter the palace. When the Imperial Lower Consort Zheng entered the palace, she was the only concubine in the room who dared to call her elder sister. Now, her eyebrows had not even changed and she had changed her name to ”Empress” and was still willing to serve her as the palace maid.
It wasn't an easy thing for a concubine who had never been favoured to say such words.
It was not only Wang Rong who thought this, but all the other concubines present also looked at Imperial Lower Consort Zheng. As for whether she was envious or not, it was hard to tell.
”Serving the Empress is just serving His Majesty.” Imperial Lower Consort Zheng said. His Majesty wasn't meeting the heavens, but the Empress was meeting the heavens. Your Majesty will be happy to serve the Empress well. ”
”I believe that the other sisters also wish to go to the Kunning Palace to serve the Empress. Don't you think so? ” When Imperial Lower Consort Zheng saw that Wang Rong She only smiled and did not speak, she came to the palace and more or less knew what was going on. As a result, she looked at the consorts behind her, wanting to use the public sentiment to get the emperor's approval.
”Imperial Lower Consort Zheng must be joking, how can we be more considerate than the palace maid serving the Kunning Palace?” The Imperial Lower Consort Liu said, ”I'm afraid they are just causing trouble for the Empress.”
”When the Empress gets pregnant, we need to rest. If we go over, we will definitely have to follow behind a palace maid or two. Wouldn't that be disturbing the Empress?” Imperial Lower Consort Yang also said.
”Although there is definitely no lack of servants in the Kunning Palace, for those of us who are careless and stupid enough to serve the Empress, it is still good to be able to interact more with the Empress in the Kunning Palace.” Her concubine, who had been sealed the same day as Imperial Lower Consort Zheng, said those words carefully. After all, it would be better to be honest than to say that she was willing to serve her.
”Yeah.” The rest of the officials agreed, ”When we enter the palace, we won't be as close as the other sisters and the Empress. If there's a chance, we can go to the Kunning Palace and get closer to the Empress every day. That would be the best.”
”Does that mean we don't want to get close to the Empress?” ”Beauty Sun said.” We also want to get close to the Empress. ”
”The Imperial Consort Guo sneered. When is it bad to get close, and you must get close when empress is pregnant? ”
”Imperial Consort Guo.” Wang Rong said with a smile, ”They both want to get close to me. If I don't allow it, then doesn't that mean I'm cold and heartless? You guys form your own charts and each of you will have one day.”
”Many thanks, Empress.” said the concubine in unison.
”Since this was proposed by Imperial Lower Consort Zheng first, this Imperial Lower Consort Zheng shall go first.” Wang Rong and Wen Yan said with a smile. I'll let you go first with the Kunning Palace today. It was agreed beforehand, this place is very boring, Imperial Lower Consort Zheng doesn't want to get bored. ”
”Many thanks, Empress.” Imperial Lower Consort Zheng said with a smile that was like flowers, ”I'm going to serve the Empress, how can I be bored.”
It was beyond Wang Rong and her concern how the rest of them would argue with each other on their shifts. When she went to pay her respects to the Ci Ning Palace, she had not mentioned this matter at all. On their way back to the palace, Wuyou said, ”Why would the Empress agree to Imperial Lower Consort Zheng's suggestion? ”How would they want to get closer to the Empress? They want to get closer to His Majesty.”
”Do you think that if they don't agree today, they won't borrow my name to stop you?” Wang Rong smiled and said, ”I can't refuse to come visit my second wife, especially since I'm pregnant right now. Such a good excuse.”
”There are only Thieves for a thousand days. There are no Thieves for a thousand days.” Wang Rong said with a smile, ”Since they want to block His Majesty with their Kunning Palace, then let them know if there's a problem. Once and for all, there will never be another person who would think like this again. ”
