Fengming Chen Palace

Chapter 102 The Holy Maiden
Mrs. Li was heading towards Chu's mansion in a carriage. She believed that Mrs. Chu had something to say to her alone.

In the palace, Mrs. Shen and Mrs. Su had lunch with Su Qingning.

Sitting in the main hall, the three of them chatted. Su Qingning was used to taking a nap, so she was not in a good mood at the moment.

Seeing her like this, Mrs. Shen and Mrs. Su looked at each other, and were about to leave. Su Qingning was reluctant to give up, but she also knew that the two of them were going to leave after all.

Holding Chen Nanny's hand, Su Qingning personally sent Mrs. Shen and Mrs. Su to the gate of the palace, watched the two walk away, and then returned to the main hall.

After tidying up briefly, Su Qingning went to take a nap in the inner room, and Mrs. Shen and Mrs. Su left the palace together.

The three of the Zhao family had already returned to the Shen residence. Since there was nothing to do, the three of them's comings and goings were not taken to heart.

Perhaps it was because she felt that she could enter the palace, and because Mrs. Su was moved by Mrs. Shen and Mrs. Li, after knowing Mrs. Su came back, Mrs. Zhao didn't respond.

As the evening approached, a letter was sent from the Chu family, into the palace, and into the hands of Concubine Chu.

After reading the letter in her hand, Concubine Chu couldn't help but frowned, "Zizhu, go and check, when did mother and the Li family get together?"

The letter was written by Mrs. Chu, and some things were explained in the letter, one of which was related to Li Rongyi.

Although Li Rongyi was found to be the scapegoat, Concubine Chu Guifei looked down on Li Rongyi from the bottom of her heart.

She doesn't want to have anything to do with such a mindless person, so as not to cause anything to happen to her.

Right now, the emperor is still doting on her. Not to mention staying with her for a few days ago, part of the power in the harem has been handed over to her. At this time, she doesn't want to cause trouble for herself at all.

Zizhu took the order and left Roufu Palace. Concubine Chu read the letter again before burning the letter, so as not to fall into someone's hands and become a handle.

…………

At the end of July, the Southern Chu Kingdom's team finally entered the capital, and Shen Yu was in charge of receiving them, and settled the Southern Chu Kingdom in the post house.

The team stopped in front of the post house, and the envoy got off the carriage and walked towards the gorgeous sedan chair in the middle. On the sedan chair, sat the saint of Southern Chu Kingdom.

Shen Yu stood in front of the post house, waiting for the envoy to invite the saint down.

The gauze curtain in front of the sedan chair was lifted, and the saint girl with a tulle face, holding the messenger's hand, got off the sedan chair and approached Shen Yu step by step.

"Thank you, my lord." Coming closer, the saint's voice sounded, with a hint of charm, Shen Yu raised his head unconsciously, and bumped into her eyes.

Although the Saintess's face was covered by the tulle, her eyes were exposed, and Shen Yu was a little surprised that her pupils were faintly blue.

Among the envoys of the Southern Chu Kingdom, none of them had strange eyes, except for this saint. Shen Yu quickly lowered her head and stopped looking at her. Your Majesty, this is what you should do, Holy Maiden, please."

After making a gesture of invitation, a proper smile appeared on Shen Yu's face, and surprise flashed in the saint's eyes. Few people returned to normal so quickly after seeing her eyes again.

Along with Shen Yu, the saintesses of the Southern Chu Kingdom and the envoys entered the post house. Everything had already been packed. Shen Yu ordered people to take everyone to settle down and wait for the emperor's summons.

After the maiden and envoys of Southern Chu were settled, Shen Yu entered the palace and returned to the emperor.

After hearing Shen Yu's report, the Emperor Chen knew something in his heart, if Shen Yu hadn't mentioned the matter of the saintess's different-colored pupils, the Emperor Chen really would not have known about it.

"Shen Qing, you have worked hard. I will leave the matter of Southern Chu to you. I will call them again after they make up their minds."

Southern Chu State is a subsidiary state of Daxing, and now they have just arrived, the emperor is not in a hurry to see them.

After receiving the order, Shen Yu saluted and left the palace.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Chu Gui is here." In Fengyang Palace, the Empress was practicing calligraphy, Zhihua came in from outside the palace and said back to the Empress.

"Chu Guifei? What is she doing here at this time?" In all these years in the palace, apart from paying her respects, Chu Guifei has almost never been to Fengyang Palace.

Putting down the brush in her hand, the queen gave orders, and she came out from behind the desk and asked Zhishu to wash her hands with water.

Concubine Chu entered the hall and saluted the queen. The queen wiped her hands and called Concubine Chu to get up and take her seat.

"The empress is so excited that she started to practice calligraphy." On the desk not far away, everything was laid out, and Concubine Chu sat down and said with a smile.

"It's just to pass the time." The queen's handwriting is not good, after all, she is from the family of a general, and now she is a queen, so she is not good at wielding knives and guns. When she is free, she can only read books and practice calligraphy.

"The imperial concubine came to Fengyang Palace, but what's the matter?" Recently, the emperor has entrusted Concubine Chu to take care of some matters in the harem, and the empress is not dissatisfied with this point.

As a noble concubine, it is normal for the queen to assist the six palaces, especially at the moment, the northwest border needs the power of the Chu family.

"Queen Qi, the concubine came to Fengyang Palace for Li Rongyi's birthday. Although she is just a small appearance, she is the emperor's concubine. A few days ago, Li Rongyi came to my concubine's Roufu Palace to ask my concubine to agree. On her birthday, you can invite your family to the palace to celebrate her birthday."

"I thought about it, and it's not a big deal, so I agreed. Seeing that her birthday is only a few days away, I came to report to the empress."

Hearing the Queen's question, Concubine Chu Guifei smiled and told her that what she said was really not a big deal.

"It's really not a big deal. Since the imperial concubine has agreed, let's do it this way." These days, the empress has to be busy with the affairs of the Southern Chu Kingdom. When Li Rongyi celebrated her birthday, she didn't have time to give her a special event in the palace. field.

Since she has her own ideas, she should act according to her own ideas, and tell people to send some things when the time comes.

Thinking in this way, the queen agreed, and when Concubine Chu Guifei saw that she agreed, the smile on her face deepened.

"The concubine knows that the empress is kind and will definitely agree. Since Li Rongyi wants to get together with her family, let's do it in her Qiushui residence. Who in the palace has a good relationship with her and wants to help her celebrate together. Go to Qiushui That’s right.”

"Alright, I have to bother the imperial concubine when the time comes, and inform the Shangshanfang to make sure Li Rongyi won't lose face." Nodding her head, the empress ordered, and Concubine Chu answered with a smile.

After saying a few words, Concubine Chu stood up and saluted, and left Fengyang Palace. When she left, Zhihua looked at her back and frowned slightly.

For some reason, she always felt that there was something in it, but she couldn't tell what it was.

Now that the empress has agreed, I can't say anything, I can only wait until Li Rongyi's birthday to see what will happen?
