Reborn as the first poisonous concubine

Chapter 435 Vigilance 1
Yuqing Palace.

This majestic summer palace was first built one year after Xiao Heng came to the throne. It was originally chosen here with Empress Li for the purpose of spending summer.

Yuqing Palace is located in the mountains and forests, with rippling lakes, cliffs and waterfalls on one side, and forest trails on the other side, shaded by greenery, it is the most suitable for summer vacation.

In previous years, to escape the summer heat, Xiao Heng would bring all his concubines, princes and princesses to live in Yuqing Palace for a period of time. At night, accompanied by the cool breeze from the mountains, he would enjoy the arranged songs and dances in Yuhua Palace, which was very enjoyable.

However, this time, Xiao Heng only brought Concubine Duan and the Fifth Prince to Yuqing Palace to escape the summer heat. The huge summer palace now seemed deserted, which actually made Concubine Duan a little uncomfortable.

Concubine Duan's close maid, Shao Yao, was doing her hair for Concubine Duan. Seeing Concubine Duan's expression a little sad, she asked with concern: "Ma'am, did you not sleep well? It seems that you are not energetic today... "

Concubine Duan didn't answer, she was silent for a while, before she said thoughtfully: "I'm just not used to it, at this time in the past, the summer palace is much more lively than the palace, but now it's so deserted!"

"The empress feels deserted, probably because the emperor only brought the empress and the fifth prince here this time..." The maid Shaoyao said with a smile as she tied up the concubine Duan's hair: "This also shows that the empress and the fifth prince have different positions in the emperor's heart." Ah, this servant feels that there is no one else in this Yuqing Palace, only the empress, the fifth prince and the emperor, it is quite clean!"

Concubine Duan couldn't help laughing when she heard the words of the maid Shaoyao: "You are the only girl who can say nice things!"

"Your slaves can tell the truth!" Seeing Concubine Duan finally laughing because of her words, Shaoyao breathed a sigh of relief, and continued to flatter her, "Ma'am, when do you think the emperor will be a concubine for other concubines?" Make an exception?"

Concubine Duan fell into contemplation when she heard the words, and after an unknown amount of time, she said quietly: "Yes, the only one who made the emperor make an exception was the abolished empress... Back then, the emperor only loved her and only brought her here to escape the summer heat. !"

Perhaps it was because of this thought that she always felt inexplicably uneasy.Although the emperor has always doted on her, he never brought her to this Yuqing Palace alone to escape the summer heat!

"No matter how much the emperor dotes on her, it can't compare to the emperor's love for your majesty. She has no sons and daughters, so your majesty is different. You have given birth to five princes for the emperor, Your Majesty, the emperor is very happy!" Shaoyao said here , paused, pursed his lips and said with a low smile: "Now the emperor only brings your empress and the fifth prince here. Doesn't it mean that maybe the emperor has already planned to make empress the empress in his heart, and there is also a candidate for His Highness the crown prince?"

Concubine Duan's eyes lit up, and she looked at her own face in the bronze mirror almost in high spirits. Looking at her beautiful face, snow-skinned and beautiful, she stroked her cheek and asked with a smile: "Is that really the case? Your Majesty, Will you really make such a decision?"

"Otherwise, why would the emperor only bring the empress and the fifth prince here to escape the summer heat?"

The court lady Shaoyao asked back with a smile, which also made Concubine Duan feel better and burst into a flowery smile.

"Shaoyao, you dress up carefully for me, and you will come over after the emperor finishes approving the papers..." Concubine Duan hurriedly ordered, her heart was already full of cheers.

"Yes!" Seeing that her master's mood finally improved, Shao Yao also responded with a smile.

Under Shao Yao's careful grooming, Concubine Duan really looked more graceful and luxurious.
