Chapter 185 The Complicated Harem (3)
Looking at Nie Yun's solemn expression, Zhao Ziyu said in a deep voice: "Brother, you are not expected to be a bad person, but... don't be too soft-hearted. What happened back then was none of your business."

Nie Yun lowered his eyes and said lightly: "I know."

After making sure that he had listened to his own words, Zhao Ziyu nodded in reassurance.

Life in the palace is more boring than living in Suchenghou's mansion.Although there were various rules and taboos because Emperor Hua did not ask her to study as seriously as Princess Huaiyang, Mu Qingyi was not interested in challenging the bottom line of acceptance of these people in the palace.Except for the first day when she went to greet the queen mother and queen, Mu Qingyi stayed in the Mingfang Hall and seldom went out.

The empress and queen mother obviously adopted a laissez-faire attitude towards her, the princess who was suddenly conferred by Huahuang.The queen mother also warned her about the rules in the palace. As for the queen, she didn't ask anything, just took care of her a few words, as if she was not suddenly canonized for no reason, but was originally a princess in the palace.The attitude of the empress dowager and empress made many people in the palace think about it, so although Mu Qingyi didn't go out, there were quite a few people who came to visit her.

Among them, the most diligent ones were Zhu Yunpin, the eighth prince's biological mother Concubine Rong, and her elder sister Mu Feiluan.If other concubines are eager to curry favor with Princess Mingze, but Concubine Rou, who is the princess's own sister, is indifferent, it will seem a little weird.Moreover, Concubine Rou knew very well that even if she wished Mu Qingyi would die quickly, she would definitely not let Emperor Hua notice the slightest bit.Therefore, Concubine Rou came to visit Mu Qingyi attentively almost every day, as if the two were really sisters with the same mother and mother.

Concubine Yun and Concubine Rong are fine, and Mu Qingyi is still interested in dealing with one or two, but she doesn't have that much patience for Mu Feiluan, who is basically torn apart.After two days, most people in the palace knew that Princess Mingze didn't want to see Concubine Rou anymore.It was said that Concubine Rou had intentionally or unintentionally mentioned to Emperor Hua that Princess Mingze was rude to her, but Emperor Hua didn't seem to express anything.

This day sent away the displeased Concubine Rou, and welcomed Concubine Rong who smiled eagerly.Concubine Rong looked at the indifferent expression on Mu Qingyi's face and said with a delicate smile, "Sister Concubine Rou came to visit the princess again?"

Mu Qingyi didn't hide her dislike for Mu Feiluan, and smiled helplessly.

Concubine Rong immediately understood the elegant meaning of the song, covered her lips and said with a smile: "Princess don't have to worry, in fact, no one in the palace knows that the princess doesn't want to see her, but she still pretends not to know and goes to the Mingfang Pavilion. Use this to please His Majesty."

Mu Qingyi lowered her eyes and said with a faint smile: "Concubine Rong is too serious. Concubine Rou is in the emperor's heart. How can I please the new princess?"

Concubine Rong waved her hand, raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "Jane is in the emperor's heart? It's true now, who knows how she got His Majesty to care about her so much? His Majesty didn't care much when she first entered the palace. her."

Mu Qingyi's heart jumped, and she said as if nothing had happened: "I remember that in the early years, His Majesty's favorite was Princess Minghui's birth mother, Wang Guifei." Concubine Rong nodded and said: "That's right, Your Majesty didn't like to be too voluptuous and gorgeous. Concubine Wang is from a famous family, she is gentle and elegant, she is really a dignified and virtuous woman. Since the death of Concubine Wang, His Majesty suddenly valued Concubine Rou for some reason. It's a lot more dignified and gentle, but she can only learn [-]-[-]% of what Wang Guifei has learned." Regarding this, Concubine Rong gritted her teeth.In essence, from the appearance, Concubine Rong and Concubine Rou are both gorgeous and enchanting women.It's hard for a woman from a general family to miss the natural elegance of a scholarly woman, but Hua Huang just happens to prefer those dignified and elegant ladies from a famous family.Therefore, Concubine Rong and Concubine Rou in the early years were not favored.But Concubine Rou is obviously smarter than Concubine Rong, or as a concubine, she is more open-minded. Even though she is beautiful, she can still learn to make herself look more graceful and gentle.Therefore, it is not unreasonable for Concubine Rou to be more favored than Concubine Rong.

Concubine Rong looked at Mu Qingyi who looked calm, and frowned in frustration.All the concubines in the palace knew that Princess Mingze didn't like Concubine Rou, so there were not a few people who wanted to provoke Princess Mingze to deal with Concubine Rou.After all, it is rare for an unfavored prostitute daughter to be suddenly crowned a high-ranking princess who can still hold her breath.But this Princess Mingze is clearly an outlier.Although her words and deeds have never concealed the news that she doesn't like Concubine Rou, but no matter who provokes them openly or secretly, this princess remains calm and calm.Sometimes, Concubine Rong couldn't help thinking that this princess grew up in this deep palace since she was a child, so she was so familiar with the tricks of these concubines in the palace.

But Concubine Rong dared to come, which naturally showed that she had different moves from others.Looking at Mu Qingyi, who was drinking tea with her eyebrows down, a smile flashed across Concubine Rong's eyes, and she quickly raised her hand to cover it with the handkerchief in her hand, and said with a soft smile: "Speaking of which, Concubine Rou can be so favored, How much does it have to do with Mrs. Qin?"

Mu Qingyi's expression changed slightly, she raised her head and stared at Concubine Rong indifferently.Faced with Mu Qingyi's expression, Concubine Rong could hardly keep the smile on her face.Hastily said: "I remember that when the news of Mrs. Qin's death was reported to the palace, Concubine Rou cried a lot and fell seriously ill. Therefore, she was praised by His Majesty as filial piety The position of Concubine Rou was granted. Afterwards, Concubine Rou became more and more favored, the princess asked, is this Concubine Rou, should I be grateful to Mrs. Qin?" She didn't believe that Mu Qingyi, who was the first daughter, would not care about her death.Mu Feiluan's scene at the beginning was touching and tearful, but it's a pity that no one in the palace is a fool.Concubine Rong has several concubine sisters in her own family, how could she not know what the concubine thinks about the aunt?What's more, if Mu Feiluan really respected his aunt so much, the Suchenghou Mansion would not treat Mu Qingyi as if she didn't exist.

"So that's it. I thought Concubine Rou was favored as soon as she entered the palace, so there's a reason for that." Mu Qingyi smiled.Seeing her so calm, Concubine Rong felt a little annoyed that Princess Mingze was so difficult to deal with.The women of the Mu family are indeed not easy-going lamps.Glancing at Concubine Rong's embarrassing expression, Mu Qingyi's smile deepened a little, and she said with a slight smile: "Your Majesty is worthy of being in the palace for many years, and the news is really well-informed."

Concubine Rong smiled smugly and said: "It's natural. If you want to know anything, the princess can come to ask me. You don't have to be polite." Concubine Rong is indeed qualified to be proud. She comes from a famous family. The palace will always stand, whether there is grace or not.But her pride was inevitably a little sad in Mu Qingyi's eyes.Sometimes the prosperity and decline of a family is just a word or thought of the emperor.
