Chapter 506 Chapter 507: Show off the momentum of a beloved concubine
On a spring morning, the sun shines through the treetops.
Song Yunzhao was dressing up in the mirror. Xiangxue gave her a peony bun, with a five-tailed phoenix hairpin shining brightly in her hair.
The concubine was wearing a red palace dress with gold sprinkled all over. The skirt was embroidered with a layer of phoenix ruffles. The golden shawl hung on her arms. She looked in the mirror and nodded with satisfaction.
Since she is a beloved concubine, she must behave like a beloved concubine.
There are countless people looking at her today, and she cannot lose in terms of momentum.
Song Yunzhao got in the car and went to Jincui Garden. Because it was a bit far away, he had to start early.
The three concubines had already gathered together and were waiting for her. When they saw her carriage coming, they stepped forward to greet her and then got into their carriages and followed the concubine's carriage.
As for when to go to Shouci Palace, Song Yunzhao didn't care.
When they arrived at Jin Cuiyuan, the carriage drove straight in and did not stop until it reached the inner gate. There were already palace servants and nuns waiting for them.
Song Yunzhao got off the carriage and was greeted by the steward of Jincui Garden, "I have seen the noble concubine."
“Get up.” Song Yunzhao said.
Concubine Shu also came over at this time, and everyone came forward to say hello. After a lot of trouble, they went to Huayang Hall.
Huayang Palace is in the northeast corner of Jincui Garden. It took a long time to go there. The soft sedan was waiting aside. Song Yunzhao and the third concubine got on the soft sedan. The servants lifted the soft sedan and walked as fast as flying.
From here, we happened to pass by the Zhichun Palace, but the beautiful ladies in the Zhichun Palace had already gone to wait outside the Huayang Palace under the guidance of the nuns.
At this time, hundreds of beautiful ladies from the Huayang Palace stood in groups in the small square in front of the palace, with their shoulders straight and their backs straight. They did not dare to make loud noises and could only whisper.
Someone at the back of the crowd said softly: "The time must be coming soon, right? Why haven't we seen anyone yet?"
“Shh, keep your voice down.”
"Didn't I suppress my voice? I wonder if the imperial concubine will come."
The woman who spoke had a charming voice, a cute little round face, and watery eyes.
The daughter beside her had an oval face and was slightly taller than her. After hearing her words, she replied, "Today is the last viewing. The Queen Mother and Your Majesty will be here, and the Imperial Concubine will definitely be here too."
The reputation of the imperial concubine was well known to everyone, and those who heard this couldn't help but have a little more expectation. They all wanted to see what the famous imperial concubine looked like, so that his majesty could only pamper her for several years.
Which of the beautiful ladies present doesn’t want to be the next noble concubine?
“Ling’e, what do you think the imperial concubine is like?”
Zhao Ling'e, who was lightly knocked, did not raise her head, but said lightly, "We will see him in a while. If we haven't seen him, we can't make lies. You and I should be careful about what we say."
“Oh, you are just too serious, it’s just a whisper in private...”
Before he finished speaking, someone exclaimed: "Here he comes!"
With this exclamation, everyone turned their heads and saw several soft sedan chairs approaching slowly from a distance. The soft sedan chairs surrounded by the palace people were so loud that they could not clearly see the appearance of the people on the sedan chairs from too far away. .
However, when the soft sedan landed, they saw a touch of red coming out of the sedan. Under the sun, the red skirt shone with golden light. The third concubine followed behind her, and the surrounding servants all bowed and stood waiting for the noble concubine to step on. He went up the steps into the inner hall and then stood up.
The whole process went very quickly. The imperial concubine did not even look in their direction, but the inexplicable aura made them frightened.
Is this the imperial concubine?
The jet-black high bun is gorgeous and exquisite, the phoenix hairpin inserted in the hair is spreading its wings, and the waist tied under the silk jade belt is not tight enough to hold. The noble concubine has given birth to two princes.
Zhang Maoquan and his people stood outside the Huayang Palace. With a glance, the palace people in Jincuiyuan did not dare to breathe. They all held their faces solemnly and straightened their backs. Didn't they show their aura?
Concubine Zhuang glanced at the imperial concubine, and then said calmly: "After all, I have followed the rules of Yi's decree and learned them carefully. I can't lose the face of the Queen Mother now." Concubine Wan's expression was indifferent. No, she really doesn't want to come.
Song Yunzhao glanced at the clock and estimated that the Queen Mother should have arrived. As soon as this thought passed through his mind, the sound of the Queen Mother's arrival came from outside.
Several people stood up to greet the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother is dressed in formal attire today, with her gorgeous clothes and high crown, showing her majesty.
In comparison, Song Yunzhao felt that she might still be slightly behind, but she didn't care much about these details.
“I’ve met the Queen Mother.”
The Queen Mother took her seat and glanced at a few people, "No need to be polite, please sit down. The Emperor is not here yet?"
Song Yunzhao took the third concubine to the seat, but she had no intention of answering.
Concubine Zhuang then smiled and said: "There is still some time. I think Your Majesty will arrive soon. If there is any delay, someone will come and send a message."
The Queen Mother nodded and did not look at Song Yunzhao. She only looked at Concubine Shu and asked, "Have you brought all the rosters?"
“Bring it here.” Concubine Shu responded and glanced at the people around her. Aunt Wen immediately held up the roster and presented it to the Queen Mother, and then gave one copy to each of Concubine Zhuang and Concubine Wan.
Song Yunzhao took it and put it on the table casually, with no intention of opening it and looking at it.
The Queen Mother glanced at the end of her eyes and pursed her lips slightly, but she did not speak this time.
Concubine Zhuang pretended to look through them, but she knew exactly who they were, and she and Concubine Shu had discussed who to keep.
The imperial concubine doesn't care, but the queen mother will definitely not keep just a few. They will try their best to choose some girls with less powerful family backgrounds and relatively peaceful appearance to stay.
“The Emperor is here!”
Feng Yi strode into the palace.
Song Yunzhao and his three concubines stood up to greet him, "I have met the emperor."
Feng Yi stepped forward and helped Yun Zhao up, "My beloved concubine, no courtesy."
Song Yunzhao and the third concubine stood up, only to find that Feng Yi did not let go of his hand, but led her to the seat and sat down.
Song Yunzhao’s eyes flashed and he sat down with a smile on his face.
Oh, the emperor is trying to save her face.
She has to cooperate well.
The Queen Mother's face was indeed not pretty, and she suppressed her anger and did not speak.
The eyes of the three concubines flew together. The three of them looked at each other and became calm again.
"Don't blame the Queen Mother if I got caught up in something urgent before my arrival." Feng Yi looked at the Queen Mother and said.
"Your Majesty takes state affairs as your top priority, so it doesn't matter if you don't come today." The Queen Mother forced out a smile. It would be better if the Emperor didn't come, so that she could keep people around.
The emperor now has Song Yunzhao by his side, so he may not be able to keep a few more of them today.
The Queen Mother's mind was spinning rapidly, thinking about what she should do if Song Yunzhao maliciously obstructed her.
Song Yunzhao sat next to Feng Yi. She used her wide armband to gently scratch Feng Yi's palm.
Feng Yi:…
I’ll send you one update first. There’s another update in the daytime, you cuties.
