The crabapple tree is fragrant in the tent, and the bright moon is in my arms

Lingpin almost bit her tongue, and her heart felt weak when she was stared at by her.

"Your servants and others pay their respects to the Imperial Concubine." They stood up and saluted to Imperial Concubine Gao.

Today, Concubine Gao was wearing a long white velvet skirt with the hem of the skirt winding on the ground. It was embroidered with dark patterns of silver threads and rainbow lines. She looked gentle and virtuous with her bun made of clouds. The pearl hairpins and necklaces on it were piled up, shining the most brilliant luster in the palace.

She cast her beautiful eyes on them, stroking the cat in her arms, and said, "I am not as tired as the Queen who is pregnant with the dragon heir. I slept very well at night. I am a little late for a while. I hope you sisters will not take it to heart."

A stick of incense has burned out.

Concubine Gao looked at Lingpin and said, "What do you think, Lingpin?"

Lingpin was annoyed at herself for saying that, and lowered her head: "Although the imperial concubine is not pregnant with the heir, she has been working day and night for the birthday banquet. It is I who broke the rules."

"Your Highness has worked hard, and we, the concubines, have violated the rules." They followed suit.

Concubine Gao then smiled and said, "No need to be polite."

They sat down and looked up at Concubine Gao.

Upon closer inspection, I realized that her skin was moist and glowing, and her makeup was delicate and graceful. She was actually many times more beautiful than before. The dimples at the corners of her lips showed her passionate nature to the fullest.

Zhaoyue's eyes remained expressionless, and Fangfei and the others naturally noticed it and were a little surprised.

Lingpin said, "Some people said before that the Imperial Concubine and Concubine Ning are somewhat similar, but today I feel that they are not similar at all. It is obvious that the Imperial Concubine is more gentle and charming."

Ning Ruxin's eyelashes trembled, and she looked at Concubine Gao's face with confusion and jealousy in her eyes. Why did she suddenly become so much more beautiful? It was obvious that she was more eye-catching before.

Even His Majesty said that she was much more clever than Concubine Gao.

But now...

Concubine Gao's eyes fell on Ning Ruxin, and she sighed softly, "Concubine Ning has applied so much rouge, but haven't you slept well these days?"

"Your Majesty, I haven't slept well these days. I put on heavier makeup because I was afraid that my appearance would not be well-groomed."

"It's okay. I won't blame you. But His Majesty doesn't like the smell of makeup. When you are in front of His Majesty, Concubine Ning should be more careful."

"Yes..." Ning Ruxin felt heartbroken by her teasing gaze and lowered her eyes.

In the harem, a woman's appearance is naturally important. She has never suffered such a big blow to her appearance. Even though she was mentally prepared before coming, she still felt very uncomfortable.

Ning Ruxin, unexpectedly, one day became an ugly person who needed heavy makeup to decorate herself.

Concubine Fang stared at the cat in her arms: "Your Majesty, what are you doing..."

"The cat that Consort Ning gave me is well-behaved and sensible. I like it very much."

Seeing that they noticed her, Concubine Gao showed off a sincere smile and held Bai Tuan higher: "She is not afraid of people at all, and she clings to me very tightly."

Concubine Fang sighed: "I have raised a pony before, but it was a foal and could not be brought into the palace."

Lingpin covered her mouth and laughed: "Madam Fangfei is really different. If you raise horses in Suihe Palace, the smell will probably make Your Majesty stay away."

Concubine Fang's eyes darkened.

Zhao Yue's eyes fell on her: "Ahem, Your Majesty is an unrivaled horseman and archer. If the horse is strong and agile, it will surely win Your Majesty's favor more than a person. By then, I'm afraid that Suihe Palace will have to move out of the palace to make room for the horse."

"You!" Lingpin put her hands on the chair handles, her brows furrowed.

Aren’t she and Concubine Fang the ones living in Suihe Palace? Who’s going to make room for them? Her?

Concubine Gao looked towards Zhaoyue, unwilling to look at her stunning face. Her gaze fell on her hands and she found that her fingers were also delicate and slender, and extremely beautiful.

He took a deep breath and looked at her collar: "Madam Zhao had a cold a few days ago. Is she better now?"

"Thank you for your concern, my lady. I'm much better now, ahem...but it's windy today, I'm afraid I choked on some of the wind on the way here."

Zhaoyue curled her lips and looked at her delicately with an enchanting look.

Concubine Gao was inexplicably frightened. She wouldn't turn around and tell His Majesty, would she? Now that His Majesty had lavishly renovated Chuntang Palace for her, he was openly doting on her.

Although His Majesty's favor was fleeting, he still holds her in the palm of his hand.

She quickly said, "Caiyue, serve another pot of hot tea to the sisters, and bring some small hand warmers."

Lingpin didn't understand what was going on, and she rushed to praise the empress for her gentleness and consideration.

Concubine Fang laughed softly while holding the small hand warmer, and gave Zhaoyue a look: You, are arrogant because of your favor, and you are using His Majesty to scare her.

Zhaoyue's long eyelashes trembled, and she was very playful: Who made her make us wait so long, just scare her.

Concubine Gao maintained her gentle expression and tried to stir up trouble without leaving any trace: "This is Concubine Rui, you are so slender and lovely. No wonder His Majesty granted you the position of Concubine. Before that, you were..."

"I am a maid in the flower room."

"A maid from the Flower Room... Your Majesty doesn't care about birth, but values ​​virtue more. You don't need to care about identity. This must be Lingpin's sister, right?"

Concubine Gao seemed very happy today: "I have heard that my sister is very talented and your majesty has praised her poems. Your majesty must like such a lady very much."

Meng Shuran stood up and said, "Thank you for your praise, Madam. It's just some love poems, not worthy of being worthy of high rank."

"Meng is too modest." Concubine Gao sighed with regret: "Your Majesty must be confused, why did he give you the position of a concubine?"

Rui Chang couldn't keep her smile on, and Meng Shuran couldn't laugh either. They both sat in their seats, feeling very uncomfortable.

Zhao Yue's gaze fell on them. Seeing Concubine Gao secretly mocking the whole audience, she squeezed the small stove in her hand.

Her birthday party was so wonderful that her tail was about to rise to the sky.

Concubine Gao enjoyed the majesty of the Queen today. Looking at their pale and patient faces, who dared not speak out their anger, she felt so relieved.

It’s this Concubine Zhao, she is really an eyesore. I’ve been looking at her and laughing at her. Let’s see how proud she will be when she gets the favor of His Majesty again.

After talking for a long time, Concubine Gao finally felt a little tired, but still didn't say goodbye. Zhaoyue felt a pair of eyes staring at her and raised her eyes to look for him.

Hua Ni sat quietly and looked into her eyes.

Zhaoyue thought of what Taoxi had said to her, that Hua Ni wanted to see her and had chosen a day when the imperial physician came to check her pulse. She didn't say whether she would see her or not, but she vaguely guessed something.

He retracted his eyes and took a sip of hot tea.

Hua agreed with this person, who is very smart, but it is hard to say whether they are of the same kind as Hua.

Now, the only one in the palace who is on good terms with her is Concubine Fang. Concubine Fang's mind is not on His Majesty now. Hua promised that she is in good health and has good skills in controlling men, so he would use her to continue to provoke Zhu Dingyuan.

You don't have to dirty yourself.

She is playful and Hua agrees to play with her body, which is good.

Zhao Yue Fox's eyes sparkled. She coughed a few times, looking uncomfortable. She held her forehead with her jade fingers and said, "My queen, I don't know why I suddenly feel dizzy."

Concubine Gao's heart skipped a beat: "Let's end the greetings today and send Concubine Zhao back home quickly. Don't let her catch a cold again."

"I will take my leave first."

Seeing that they were all gone, Concubine Gao breathed a sigh of relief: "She was so weak that she almost collapsed in my Yanxi Palace."

Caiyue: "…It's time for your Majesty to have dinner."

"Bring me a cup of tea." Concubine Gao held up the cup. She was so thirsty from talking today. She didn't know where the sickly Queen got the strength to pay her respects with ease every time!
