Cuizhu lowered her voice and answered, "Yesterday, His Majesty asked Aunt Zeng Rou to pass on a message that the Queen was not in the emperor's bedchamber yet and should not act too extravagantly, so he did not ask the people below to arrange a sedan chair."

"Who is Aunt Zeng Rou? Is she your Majesty's concubine?"

"Aunt Zeng Rou is the aunt in charge of the imperial court."

"Oh."

Ah Zhi couldn't help but mutter,

"She's really nosy."

What does it mean to overstep one's authority?

This is overstepping one's authority.

She is just the aunt in charge in the imperial court. Even though she has made a vow of eternal love with Fu Rong, it is not her turn to interfere in Azhi's affairs.

No wonder the little girl felt bitter.

It's like soaking in bitter melon water.

Only in front of Empress Dowager Xu could she feel the privilege of being an imperial concubine.

If I hadn't gone to pay my respects to Queen Mother Xu today, I would probably not have seen what a concubine's sedan chair is like.

Zeng Rou must be very jealous of herself.

Azhi raised his hand and let Cuizhu help him step onto the sedan chair.

"Her Royal Highness is going to the Cining Palace."

It’s different when sitting on a sedan chair. The surrounding scenery is more beautiful.

When passing by the Imperial Garden, I understood what a cluster of flowers meant.

The autumn chrysanthemums are in full bloom, their yellow color is so pleasing to the eye that Ahzhi couldn't help but take a few more glances at them.

But at this moment, a figure caught her attention.

The other person was wearing a peach pink jacket and pleated skirt, and was holding a lush and beautiful green chrysanthemum in her arms.

Zeng Rou.

Fu Rong’s sweetheart.

At that time, Empress Dowager Xu was busy with the palace fighting, so she asked Zeng Rou to take care of the young Fu Rong.

No one expected that these two people, who were ten years apart in age, would secretly fall in love with each other.

Azhi looked at her.

It's easy to catch the jealousy in the other person's eyes.

Empress Dowager Xu was strong and fierce. Fu Rong was afraid of her and did not want Zeng Rou to be in danger, so she did not dare to make their relationship public.

He also let the original body enter the palace as a shield.

Zeng Rou's goal was to become the queen, and she did not ask to be made a concubine.

First, he knew that Fu Rong was unable to give her what she wanted now.

Second, as she became a concubine, she couldn't keep an eye on Fu Rong every day, and there was a high possibility that someone else would snatch Fu Rong away.

If I become Fu Rong's concubine, I will need to abide by the rules of the palace.

But if she didn't become a concubine, she would be jealous of the women who became concubines.

I really want everything.

Azhi withdrew his gaze indifferently, he didn't even see Fu Rong.

We can’t confront Zeng Rou head-on now.

Even though I almost couldn't suppress the malice in my heart.

Inside the Cining Palace, Empress Dowager Xu sat at the top with a smile on her face.

She was still very satisfied with Azhi. Although she was only a concubine of the Yuan family, she was the daughter of Grand Tutor Yuan.

Ah Zhi followed the rules and performed the ceremony respectfully, there was really nothing wrong with him.

"I have seen the Queen Mother. I wish her the best of luck and happiness."

"Get up."

"Thank you, Queen Mother."

Seeing Ahzhi sitting down obediently, Empress Dowager Xu began to praise her.

"When you were selected for the imperial selection, I thought you were good. Now that you have entered the palace and become the emperor's virtuous concubine, it is really a blessing for the emperor that he did not let you drift into another family."

"Grandmaster Yuan knows how to raise a daughter. Look at how pretty Concubine Xian is. The princes and princesses born in the future will surely be pretty too."

The praise made Ahzhi blush.

She rubbed her handkerchief and said, "Your Majesty, you are too kind. I am not that good."

"You are so shameless that you are even being modest. Well, you don't have to be so modest. When you give birth to a grandson for me, I will make you my imperial concubine in the future."

The Imperial Concubine is the head of the Four Concubines, and Empress Dowager Xu is really generous.

But in Azhi's eyes, he has no ambition.

Do you want to get rid of yourself by simply being the head of the Four Concubines?

What she wants is the whole world!

"Were you used to entering the palace yesterday?"

You hit the point.

Ah Zhi straightened her back and seemed to be hesitant to speak, as if she wanted to say something but didn't dare to.

This made Empress Dowager Xu raise her eyebrows slightly and ask further questions.

"What's wrong with you? Did anything happen to you when you entered the palace? If you have anything, just tell me directly."

"I am not used to it. The Ministry of Internal Affairs does not allow me to bring maids into the palace, but my residence is in Luhua Palace."

"There wasn't even a maid or eunuch serving in the palace yesterday. If I hadn't accidentally met Eunuch Chen Yue, I'm afraid I wouldn't know what to do."

"What did you say?"

Mrs. Xu showed a gentle expression and looked at Nanny Chen sharply.

"What's going on? There's no arrangement for Consort Xian to enter the palace? Is this how the Ministry of Internal Affairs does things?"

Nanny Chen was also shocked and immediately knelt on the ground and began to cry out for justice.

"Your Majesty, it's not that I don't have any plans. It's that all my plans were rejected by Your Majesty. I only got the news this morning."

"Your Majesty intercepted the Empress Dowager's decree and even sent a message, saying that as a concubine's daughter, the virtuous concubine was not allowed to bring any personal maids into the palace."

"They even arranged for the virtuous concubine to stay in the Luhua Palace and just let her walk there. They didn't arrange for a sedan chair yesterday, and the Luhua Palace was only lightly cleaned..."

The more Empress Dowager Xu listened, the worse her expression became. Finally, in a rage, she threw the teacup to the ground, breaking it to pieces.

"Asshole, a good girl is being abused by him like this?"

The original person was timid and did not want to cause trouble when he first entered the palace.

Fu Rong even deliberately warned her not to complain to the Queen Mother.

Therefore, the matter was temporarily put aside and was not discovered by Empress Dowager Xu until half a year later.

At that time, she was already very disappointed with her original self and thought it was completely useless.

After entering the palace, she failed to win the emperor's heart and she never got pregnant.

Not only did she not vent her anger for her original self.

She also blamed the original body for being petty, not knowing how to complain when being wronged, and being nervous as soon as she entered the palace.

But now Azhi complained on the spot.

Just wait and watch the good show between Fu Rong and Zeng Rou.

Ah Zhi seemed to realize that he had said too much.

The atmosphere in the hall was obviously not right. She rubbed her handkerchief vigorously and tried to remain calm.

The round eyes seemed to be able to speak: Have I gotten into trouble?

Queen Mother Xu suppressed her anger and sighed, "Forget it, this matter has nothing to do with you. If you are wronged again in the future, you must not keep it in your heart. You must tell me if there is anything."

"The emperor has never been familiar with the affairs of the harem, and has never been too close to women. Please bear with me."

Your son has never had sex with a woman?

Clues can be found in the original body's memory.

Fu Rong and Zeng Rou ate the forbidden fruit.

He was only fourteen years old that year.

No one understands it better than him.

Azhi nodded slightly, a little shyly.

"I understand."

She seems to be a heartless girl.

At this moment, the eunuch's voice came from outside.

"Your Majesty has arrived."

The man who came in was wearing a green dragon robe.

He wore a white jade crown on his head, a dragon-patterned headband swaying gently, and a dragon-patterned jade pendant around his waist.

His identity is declared from beginning to end.

"Youth pays respects to your mother."

Fu Rong was indeed pretty, and her face bore the shadow of Empress Dowager Xu.
