After the rain, the air in the imperial city was mixed with the fragrance of flowers in the imperial garden. The petals that fell on the ground were cleaned up by the servants, and some thoughtful maids would pick them up, wash them and make them into sachets, which was also a little interesting.

Zhao Yue opened her eyes and saw Zhu Dingyuan changing clothes. He smiled and asked, "Why don't you sleep a little longer?"

"Your Majesty, I will help you change your clothes." Without having time to recall what happened last night, Zhaoyue propped herself up, but was stopped by the man.

Zhu Dingyuan's handsome features were actually tinged with shame: "I... do it yourself. Yesterday... I didn't mean to bully you..."

Zhaoyue's body stiffened and his fingers clenched the thick quilt beneath him.

Yesterday...was it him...?

Zhu Dingyuan scratched the tip of her nose and said, "Close your eyes for a while. There's no need to rush to pay respects to the Queen."

"Yes." Zhaoyue nodded obediently.

She waited until he left before she lifted the quilt from her body. The skin between her legs was red from the intense friction.

It's not a dream, everything is real.

But that faint scent of crabapple and that slightly cool touch, is it really His Majesty?

Zhao Yue shook her head violently. She was really crazy. She kept imagining something over and over again. He was a eunuch!

Even if he was bold enough to climb onto the bed, where would he get the capital to do so?

Zhao Yue laughed at herself, she was really poisoned and blinded by the beauty.

I pinched myself with my fingers and called for quick wake up, Zhaoyue!

Taoxi knocked on the door and came in: "My lady, are you ready to get up?"

After washing up, Zhao Yue sat on the stool. He Quan came over to help her dress up as usual. Seeing that she looked listless, he asked, "What's wrong, young lady? Are you feeling unwell?"

Zhao Yue quickly stood up, rubbed her legs, and coughed to avoid his concerned eyes: "No, no, are you done? It will be too late to greet you later."

"Okay... My Lord, please have your meal first."

Zhaoyue stood up and glanced at the table: "I don't have much appetite, I'll eat when I come back. Taoxi, let's go."

Taoxi quickly supported her: "My lady, please take some. It's still early."

Zhao Yue walked very quickly: "I said I'm not hungry."

He Quan looked at her back with a knowing gaze, his eyes fell on the breakfast he had prepared, and he sighed for a long time.

Inside Fengyi Palace.

The Queen looked at Zhao Yue with a look of relief: "Zhao Chang looks better after serving you in bed. You came so early to pay your respects today. Didn't His Majesty stay at your place yesterday?"

Concubine Qi smiled and said, "Yes, Zhao Changzai is really diligent, unlike someone else, who doesn't know how to respect the queen."

Ning Ruxin's face changed and she didn't say anything.

Concubine Gao looked at Zhao Yue, with an inexplicable smile on her beautiful and soft face: "How come Zhao Chang is still dressed so simply after serving you in the bed? My dear sister, you should dress up well. I see that this Furongjuan dress Ning Chang Zai is wearing is very good."

Zhao Yue remained silent, it seemed that dragging Ning Ruxin down had become a regular routine.

She pretended to be flustered: "Your Majesty, please don't tease me. I only know that light clothes make me look fresh. I have poor taste. What I wear is not to your liking. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

Ning Ruxin said coldly: "Your Highness is the favorite of the harem, and you have seen all kinds of good things. Your Highness should not think about my sister's silk skirt that is not elegant enough."

Concubine Gao choked. Seeing that she was so arrogant and outspoken, she was stuck in her seat, unable to move. She suppressed her anger, maintained a gentle expression, forced a smile, but said nothing.

Zhaoyue glanced at Ning Ruxin and found that she was getting bolder and bolder. She was afraid that His Majesty had given her the confidence.

But it is true. Apart from Concubine Gao, she is the one who is most favored. But today, she has challenged Concubine Gao like this. Isn’t she afraid of revenge?

strangeness.

Ning Ruxin smiled at Zhaoyue again: "Sister is really smart. She has won the favor of the Queen Mother. Look, I heard that His Majesty gave sister a pair of love knot bracelets?"

Now everyone's eyes were on Zhaoyue again, and they were all filled with sourness.

This Ning Ruxin wanted to drag her down to be targeted together so that she could form a group with her. How cruel.

Zhao Yue laughed and said, "I can't hide anything from you, sister. It's just a pair of bracelets. Your Majesty may think that my jewelry is shabby, so you give me some face."

The concubines present did not expect her to say this, and the queen was amused by her: "Zhao Changzai is young, but she speaks her mind and says whatever she wants. How can your majesty's favorite concubine say that she is shabby? I will give you some jewelry later."

Zhao Yue immediately pretended to be a money-grubber: "Your Majesty is so kind, thank you, Your Majesty."

Concubine Gao seemed to think that she was stupid, so she picked up the tea and took a sip.

Ning Ruxin smiled, looked at Zhaoyue deeply, her fingers groping for the bracelet on her wrist, wondering what she was thinking.

Queen: "Concubine Fang is almost recovered. I see that the harem has changed from dull to peaceful. In a few days, it will be the autumn prayer day. I will ask Your Majesty if you want to leave the palace. My sisters can follow you."

"Yes, thank you, Queen."

The greetings are finally over.

Every time Zhao Yue came out, she would sigh, rub her waist, and grumble quietly: "My butt is about to fall off halfway. The chairs in the Queen's Palace are really hard."

Taoxi laughed out loud: "My lady, you thought it was a couch. I see that you are getting lazier and want to lie down anywhere."

Zhao Yue pinched her face and said, "You are so brave. You dare to say that to me."

Walking on the palace road, she saw the Yulin Guards coming towards her. A familiar face stared at her for a few seconds. Zhaoyue touched her earlobe and turned around quickly: "Taoxi, one of my earrings is missing. I'm afraid it fell with the queen. Go and help me find it."

"Don't worry, my lady. I'll be there right away!"

After seeing Taoxi leave, she walked forward a few meters and looked around, but there was no one.

A hand stretched out from the shadow of the red wall. Zhao Yue was startled. Before she could scream, he covered her lips: "My lady is fast enough. She received grace in one day."

Zhao Yue let go of his hand, stood firm and said with a cold expression: "You are so brave. You dare to leave your post and stay in such an important place as the harem."

The man raised his eyebrows nonchalantly: "My young master wanted to see me just now, so I will come."

"How is my brother?"

"My lord, you are so efficient, so of course there will be no problem. But... if you want him to remain safe, you have to work harder."

Zhao Yue suppressed his anger and said, "Don't hurt him. Tell the old man that if anything happens to him, even if I die, I will drag his entire clan to pay with me."

The man pinched her chin and said, "Oh, you are so arrogant."

"I am Wei Ruoming, and the master has ordered that if the young master needs help, I will help."

He let go of her hand, and said in a tone that was not in line with the cynicism of the Imperial Guards: "This is really troublesome. The master chose a fool who only has beauty. If it were you, I would rather give him a Yangchun prostitute. My lady...you must learn to be gentle..."

Wei Ruoming exhaled towards Zhao Yue, who glared at him and stepped on his instep: "You are not worthy of my gentleness!"
