Concubine Shang Yunxiao

Chapter 431 Jin'an Temple

The days in the palace are somewhat boring, either listening to music and dancing, playing chess, chatting, passing by day by day.The only fun thing is that there is a small town not far from the palace.The concubines put on casual clothes and went shopping, but it was just a temporary novelty.

Naturally, the cheap goods in the small town cannot catch their eyes.

For the other concubines who have just entered the palace, they are more concerned about how to attract Gong Qinglong's attention.Except for the empress dowager Chen who forced Gong Qinglong to have two concubines she liked, Gong Qinglong was almost by Yuan Xi's side during the rest of the time.The two of them kept silent, and Gong Qinglong would not feel bored.

Ruan Xiangsu didn't seem to care at all.When Gong Qinglong went to visit her occasionally, he couldn't hear any complaints from her mouth.This made Gong Qinglong feel guilty towards her.So, he rewarded her with a lot of things to make up for his negligence towards Ruan Xiangsu.

At a dinner party, all the concubines were there.Gong Qinglong and Empress Chen sat beside Empress Dowager Chen.Ruan Xiangsu, the highest concubine, sits on the left, and Yuan Xi sits on the right.

Empress Dowager Chen said that this day is a bit boring, it is better to go back to the palace early.

Gong Qinglong then said: "It's my fault that I didn't let the queen mother have a good time."

"What's wrong with the emperor." The Empress Dowager Chen laughed, "It's because Ai's family is old and doesn't like to move around. Those with good mountains and rivers nearby don't want to move around anymore."

Ruan Xiangsu took over and said: "How can those common sights and vulgar scenes attract the queen mother's phoenix?"

Gong Qinglong looked at her and said, "Is there something good about Xiangxiang?"

Ruan Xiangsu said with a smile: "I heard that there is a newly explored cave nearby by the villagers, and the stalactites inside are all kinds of strange and different shapes.

"What's the value of some stones without aura." Empress Dowager Chen said disapprovingly.

Ruan Xiangsu was not displeased either, just smiled lightly: "The concubine is just curious about the uncanny craftsmanship of nature. Besides, it's not far from the Jin'an Temple built for the Empress Dowager."

The Empress Dowager Chen was not interested at first, but she suddenly became a little happy when she heard that Jin'an Temple was built for her [-]th birthday. She pretended to be slow and said: "The Ai family hasn't visited that temple yet."

"Let me make arrangements." Gong Qinglong immediately understood.

Empress Dowager Chen nodded and said, "Let's take a look at that karst cave along the way. It's so novel, it will open the eyes of all concubines."

Now there is a distinction between primary and secondary. Going to Jin'an Temple is the main one, and going to the cave is just a side trip.
