Chapter 42: The Outstanding Harem
Although the other three concubines in Zichen Palace teased Su Feiran, they still thought of many different ways to help Su Feiran.
Lin Xiuqing searched for a wide headband to cover the ostentatious pear blossom painting on Su Feiran's forehead, but the cloth she found either failed to cover the large white flower or was more ostentatious than the large white flower itself. Lin Xiuqing tried for a while, then gave up.
Ma Shuya tried to wipe off the pear blossom on Su Feiran's forehead with a wet face towel, but it only made the delicate pattern blurrier. The two people watching nearby hurried forward to stop them, fearing that Su Feiran would be rubbed into a flower girl. Su Feiran looked at the three people frantically working on her face with a bewildered look on her face, but she herself had no idea what was happening.
Xie Zhiqi wanted to add some gorgeous pearls and jade to Su Feiran's hair to divert people's attention from the big white flower. However, Ma Shuya and Lin Xiuqing thought that this would make the pear flower more conspicuous, and it would be like a moon surrounded by stars among the complicated pearls. Xie Zhiqi had no choice but to remove all the pearls and jade and re-do Su Feiran's hairstyle.
After the three of them worked hard and brainstormed with other maids, the plan to drastically change the Big White Flower was finally abandoned.
Su Feiran saw the three people sweating profusely and looking anxious, but in the end he did not utter the complaint "I was asked to go back and put on makeup again just now, but now it's done."
Concubine Jia sent someone to tell them that the venue in the Imperial Garden was short of staff to set up. The four people from the Purple Palace had been delayed for too long and could not refuse, so they had to rush over with the palace maids and eunuchs.
After a whole afternoon of hard work, it was getting dark when the four of them arrived at the Imperial Garden.
Seeing that the venue had been basically arranged, the four men only needed to drag in some tables and chairs and find some flowers, vegetables and fruits for decoration, and then began to direct their servants to get busy.
Lin Xiuqing ordered Yuliu to prepare tea and snacks to reward the busy servants, and she also had to prepare some and put them in the pavilion, and sat in the pavilion leisurely with the other three sisters to supervise the work.
"So, this job is so easy, why does it have to be me..." Su Feiran was holding the milk tea, feeling dissatisfied.
Ma Shuya kindly pointed out: "Empress Xian has her reasons for arranging you to come. The emperor and the other sisters will be here soon. What will they think when they see that there are only three of us at the scene, but you are missing?"
Su Feiran replied perfunctorily: "Yes, yes, I am here to take credit for nothing..."
"It's easy to deal with other sisters, but we can't be careless with His Majesty."
Ma Shuya is tireless in teaching, and her earnest teachings have made Su Feiran's ears calloused.
"Even if Ronghua, you are favored for a while, have you ever thought about what Concubine Jia will think of you? The water here is very complicated, you don't understand. She won't care whether you have other important things to do, she will only think that you are slacking off if you are not here to supervise the work, and she will make things difficult for you in the future. I am speaking from the bottom of my heart, and it is all for your own good. You must be more careful in the future, be cautious in what you say and do, and don't let her catch you..."
"Master, please stop reciting," Su Feiran confessed, "I have a headache."
Lin Xiuqing and Ma Shuya have lived together in Zichen Palace for many years. Although they are not very familiar with each other, they have lived together for a long time and know Ma Shuya's personality inside out. She looked at Su Feiran's face full of regret, wishing she could dig three feet into the ground to bury herself to avoid Ma Shuya's nagging. She immediately smiled and poured tea for Su Feiran, and explained in a gentle voice:
"Sister Su, you don't know that Concubine Chun is famous for her enthusiasm in the palace. If she sees other concubines doing something wrong, she will not let it go if she doesn't point it out. Even if you are an ant passing by and take the wrong path, you can't escape her teachings! Sister Su, you'd better correct your mistakes, otherwise Concubine Chun will not let you go next time."
Su Feiran was so scared that he quickly shut up. It seemed that Ma Shuya's nagging was contagious. Even someone as gentle as Lin Xiuqing became nagging next to her.
As night fell, Lin Xiuqing asked the three of them to line up outside the venue and watch the emperor's sedan chair approaching. Behind the sedan chair was a long line of attendants, making it a grand scene.
"Greetings to His Majesty." When Qin Feng'an approached, Lin Xiuqing bowed deeply.
After Qin Feng'an got off the sedan, he first glanced at the big white flower on Su Feiran's head, and then raised his hand to pardon Lin Xiuqing's courtesy.
"What's wrong with your head?" Qin Feng'an mouthed to Su Feiran.
Su Feiran responded silently: "It's hard to put it into words."
Lin Xiuqing stood up respectfully and asked softly, "I heard that the Imperial Concubine was ill, so I arranged for the Purple Palace to take over the venue arrangements. But the shareholders' meeting is approaching, is the Imperial Concubine okay?"
If you want to know, why don't you send someone to ask?
Although Qin Feng'an complained impatiently in his heart, he said, "Noble Concubine Jia is fine and will come to the meeting soon. But how did Concubine Xian know that I have been to Chitang Garden?"
"Your Majesty and I are in tune with each other, so I can guess what's on your mind."
Lin Xiuqing smiled, as if everything was as it should be.
"Your Majesty is tall and majestic in the front court, but considerate and gentle in the back garden. I believe that no matter which sister in the back garden is ill, Your Majesty will come to visit."
Qin Feng'an glanced at Lin Xiuqing and saw that he looked calm and his answers were flawless, so he stopped making things difficult for him.
Su Feiran secretly stuck out her tongue at him - if you keep being suspicious every day, you'll age quickly!
Zichen Palace took its seat after Qin Feng'an. After waiting for a while, the other concubines also arrived one after another.
Wu Jiayan arrived late with Ling'er and was the last one to take the seat.
Qin Feng'an looked at the concubines waiting quietly, raised the white jade cup in his hand, and announced loudly: "Under the full moon, the beauties gathered together, which is my honor. Tonight, you don't have to be polite, just relax and enjoy yourself! I declare that the first shareholders' meeting of the Imperial City during the Mid-Autumn Festival will begin immediately!"
"Pah-pah-pah-pah-pah-pah-"
A solitary round of applause rang out.
Su Feiran clapped his hands in support, but he saw that everyone around him was looking at him, so he had to withdraw his hands awkwardly.
Qin Fengan raised his hand, looked at Su Feiran with a sly look, and said jokingly: "Since Liu Ronghua can't wait, let's start with you!"
"What do you want to do, kid?" Su Feiran's face suddenly became as ugly as if he had eaten a fly.
Eunuch Zhang glanced at the process chart and whispered to Qin Feng'an, "Your Majesty, this talent show is based on rank, so Yang Cainu should start. But because Yang Cainu made a mistake, she was sent to the Buddhist temple by the Imperial Concubine yesterday to chant sutras. She will not be able to leave until tomorrow, so she will not be able to make it to the shareholders' meeting. So, Xie Cainu should start next."
"Thank you, Cainv?"
Qin Feng'an's eyes rolled, and he finally remembered who Xie Cainu was.
When Su Feiran chatted with him, she often mentioned Xie Zhiqi who lived with her in Zichen Palace. She said that Xie Zhiqi was the most typical tsundere bully in anime, and she would feel uncomfortable if she didn't tease her for a day.
She also said that on the first day of the talent show, Xie Zhiqi's talent amazed everyone and she was the first one selected by Lin Xiuqing to enter the palace. She would definitely be a feast for the eyes at the shareholders' meeting.
