Chapter 2320 Greet Concubine Duan

Early the next morning, while Dongfang Liyue was still sleeping, a servant girl came to call, saying that Concubine Duan had an invitation.

Su Moliang pondered that there is no queen in this palace, so the rules of paying greetings in the morning are omitted.

But Concubine Duan is one of the three concubines, she can be regarded as the master of the harem, plus she lives in the main hall of Yongle Palace, she is qualified to summon other concubines in Yongle Palace.

So, they had to go this time.

Of course, according to the rules, when they first arrived at Yongle Palace, they should also greet the concubines in the main hall.

However, as soon as they stepped into Concubine Duan's territory, they saw the faces of Qiu Qiyun and Hongxue, and they knew that this trip to ask for peace might not be easy.

Sure enough, before they had time to open their mouths, Hongxue snorted bitterly, "The adopted daughter I picked up just can't get on the stage, she doesn't even know the most basic rules and etiquette, and she didn't even come to pay her respects to Concubine Duan when she arrived at Yongle Palace. I have to let the empress personally send someone to invite me, I didn't expect that the position is not high, and the airs are very big!"

Dongfang Liyue was speechless when she heard the words, it was still early, and it was not time to ask for greetings, so they sent someone to invite them, making it clear that they wanted to find fault, but before she could respond, they listened to Concubine Duan rushing to clear the siege.

"Yesterday Limei participated in the audition and served His Majesty at night. I think I was very tired, so I didn't have time to greet this palace. I will not care about these things with her." Concubine Duan still maintained an elegant and noble posture. With a smile, but it seems to have been measured with a ruler, standard and perfect.

Qiu Qiyun knew that Concubine Duan was kind-hearted, so she couldn't help explaining, "Concubine Duan may not know that His Majesty just went to Li Meiren's place for dinner last night, but didn't stay overnight, and she doesn't know what Li Meiren did to make His Majesty sleep in the middle of the night. Go back to Linhua Palace to rest. Since Li Meiren didn't serve Emperor Yan to bed at all, why bother to talk about it?"

There is a long distance between Yongle Palace and Linhua Palace, Emperor Yan would rather go back to rest after walking such a long way, so it can be seen that he does not want to see Dongfang Liyue.

Therefore, it is very likely that Dongfang Liyue said something that angered Emperor Yan and made Emperor Yan go away.

Hearing this, Concubine Duan looked at Dongfang Liyue in surprise, "Oh? There is such a thing! Beauty Li, it is your honor to serve His Majesty, how can you take it lightly."

Dongfang Liyue was very upset by Qiu Qiyun's arrangement, but she didn't dare to make a fuss when facing Concubine Duan, "Mother, the concubine has always served her with all her heart, and she dared not neglect in the slightest. Who knows that Emperor Yan doesn't want to stay overnight, it's really not true. The concubine can control you. If you fail to serve His Majesty well, the concubine is guilty, please punish me."

Dongfang Liyue was the first to be favored. Although Concubine Duan was suspected of finding fault, she could not be punished casually until she figured out the situation. She could only smile and say to ease the atmosphere, "Li beauty is serious, I think You also tried your best, Emperor Yan refused to stay overnight, you must be very sad, how can you be willing to punish you again. Whether you can serve the bed depends on whether you have that blessing, if you don't, you don't have to force it, as long as you keep yourself safe, you will always be happy There is a chance."

Concubine Duan's words were wonderful, she seemed to be comforting Dongfang Liyue, but in fact she was just reminding her to keep her own place and not to think about what she didn't deserve.

Of course Dongfang Liyue could also understand the beating of the needle hidden in her cotton, she nodded clearly, "Yes, this concubine will remember the teachings of the empress. From now on, I will serve Your Majesty wholeheartedly."

When Hongxue heard this, she let out a cold snort, and said with a face full of disdain, "Cut! You still have a future?"

The first time she was lucky, she couldn't grasp such a good opportunity, let alone the future.

"Sister Hongxue, no matter whether the master has a chance to be lucky in the future, it is not something you, a maid, can comment on. If you don't even have the most basic rules of being a maid, your master will be the one who will suffer. Therefore, sister Hongxue still respectfully Be cautious in your words and deeds." Su Moliang returned the words she had just humiliated Dongfang Liyue.

"You——you—" Hongxue's face flushed red with anger, but she didn't dare to speak wild words in front of Concubine Duan.

Seeing her angry appearance, Dongfang Liyue felt happy, and said emphatically, "Madam Rao, you really have no rules as a personal servant girl. You'd better get rid of this person who can't wait for the stage, otherwise you will be messed with." The trouble is worth the candle."

Qiu Qiyun heard this yin and yang ridicule, and her proud pretty face was a little bit unstoppable, "Li Meiren should be worried about herself, as long as you can talk a little, you won't be unable to keep Emperor Yan."

"You don't need to worry about whether you can stay or not. The Rao concubine should think about how to lure Emperor Yan to Yongle Palace for dinner." Dongfang Liyue went back mercilessly.

At least Emperor Yan still ate at her place, but Qiu Qiyun didn't even do this step, and she didn't know how to make fun of others.

Sure enough, Qiu Qiyun's face turned pale with anger.

Concubine Duan was amused when she saw that the two were not dealing with each other, but she pretended to be a peacemaker and said conciliatoryly, "It's a good thing that you are competing to serve Emperor Yan. If you want to be favored by Emperor Yan, you still have to help each other and support each other. That's the only way." , your favor can go a long way."

Dongfang Liyue replied with a pleasing eyebrow, "Yes, what Empress Duanfei taught me."

Concubine Duan's tone was gentle and peaceful, not to mention any lessons, but what she said from Dongfang Liyue's mouth had the meaning of a high-ranking concubine beating a low-ranking concubine, which immediately made Concubine Duan choke, and finally waved her hand stiffly, "Okay , you came here early in the morning, you should be tired, so that's all for today, you kneel down and go back to rest."

When Qiu Qiyun heard this, she rolled her eyes in her heart, what is helping and supporting each other, everyone in the harem framed each other, and as for grace, it was even more invisible, after all, Emperor Yan once didn't even enter the harem.

Presumably, it was because these concubines, like concubines Duan, were too dignified and hypocritical to arouse Emperor Yan's interest.

Originally, when Concubine Duan heard her say that Emperor Yan had gone to Dongfang Liyue, she intended to beat Dongfang Liyue to help her vent her anger.

Who knows, when the person really came, she didn't dare to say that she wouldn't punish her, for fear of offending Dongfang Liyue and acting like a counselor.

If she were a man, she wouldn't like this one either.

However, she wanted to return to her thoughts, and followed the rules to salute Concubine Duan before leaving the hall.

However, Concubine Duan didn't find a place for her, so Qiu Qiyun felt unwilling, and as soon as she walked out of the main hall, she blocked Dongfang Liyue's way.

"Dongfang Liyue, don't think that the concubine Duan didn't punish you, so you can do whatever you want without looking at anyone else. Let me tell you, I have many ways to cure you, so be careful!"

Dongfang Liyue chuckled softly, "Miss Rao, have you not listened to the teachings of Duanfei? Concubines and concubines need to help and support each other, so that the favor can last forever. You said that you treat people kindly, and concubines may still be able to stay with you." To say a few good words to you in front of Emperor Yan, who would have thought that once you entered the palace, you would be jealous and confront your concubine, wouldn't this ruin your good future!"

"Bah, I need a beauty from you to support me, a majestic concubine in this palace? Emperor Yan just went to your place to have a meal, which doesn't mean anything at all. You really think you are favored? This time, Emperor Yan is a fresh look , don't you really think there will be a next time, it's just wishful thinking!" Qiu Qiyun cursed angrily when she was guessed at the tail.

However, as soon as she finished speaking, she heard Eunuch Xu's voice behind her.

"Oh, Li Meiren, you can make it easy for miscellaneous people to find!"

Dongfang Liyue raised her eyes when she heard the sound, and saw Eunuch Xu approaching anxiously, and asked suspiciously, "Is there something wrong with Eunuch Xu?"

"It's not a big deal, but His Majesty is coming to Yongle Palace for dinner tonight, so let Li Meiren prepare well."
