For some reason, he suddenly remembered what Bai Susu and the palace maid had said just now: falling out of favor is falling out of favor, it's no big deal...

He snorted coldly, leaned over and lifted Bai Susu's chin with his hand. His eyes were as deep as ink and he said, "Do you really think I won't punish you?" His voice was not loud, but it carried an indescribable majesty.

Bai Susu dared to be so presumptuous, to a certain extent, because she knew that Emperor Xuan Jing had a good impression of her.

But the emperor's pressure was too terrifying. Although Emperor Xuan Jing's expression was still indifferent, the kind of invisible killing and careless questioning still made Bai Susu really scared.

She bit her delicate lips with her pearly teeth, her eyes full of tears, and looked at Emperor Xuan Jing like that.

Under the bright candlelight, Bai Susu's face was translucent and those few crystal tears were particularly obvious. She looked three parts delicate and seven parts pitiful. Even though Emperor Xuan Jing had a heart as hard as iron, he couldn't help but soften a little at this moment.

"Are you still reasonable?"

Bai Susu said softly but with a hint of stubbornness: "Empress Hui is clearly trying to make things difficult for me. If she wins people over with her virtue, how can I not be respectful? Besides, I and Empress Hui are both the Emperor's women. I am willing to serve the Emperor, but I cannot be so humble in front of Empress Hui."

Listening to this twisted logic, if Wang Fuhai was next to him, I'm afraid he would criticize Bai Susu in his heart again, saying that you and Concubine Hui are both the emperor's women.

But one is a concubine and the other is a noble lady, so there is a difference in their status!

However, Emperor Xuan Jing's heart was disturbed by Bai Susu's crying, and the word "his woman" also strangely pleased him. For a moment, the anger in his heart was mostly extinguished.

While crying, Bai Susu secretly glanced at Emperor Xuan Jing's expression. She saw that his brows were still furrowed and his lips were tightly pursed. His handsome features were now covered with a layer of light frost. She thought to herself, he has such a heart of stone, and she couldn't help crying even harder.

How could Emperor Xuan Jing not see her sneaky little expression? He was both angry and amused in his heart. Concubine Hui was right in one thing: she was really spoiled because of the favor she received!

Bai Susu's swollen chest rose and fell as she cried. Emperor Xuan Jing's brows twitched, and he withdrew his hand awkwardly, looking away. He said, "That's enough, stop crying. I won't punish you this time, and it won't happen again."

Bai Susu complained in her heart, she had done nothing wrong, why was she punished? Did she have to sit there and wait for Concubine Hui to punish her in order to be considered as understanding the rules?

Screw those bullshit rules. Even men like them don’t know how to feel sorry for themselves.

However, even though she thought so in her heart, Bai Susu didn't dare to say it out loud. When she heard that Emperor Xuan Jing would not pursue the matter, her face lit up, and with tears still crawling down her face, she thanked him sweetly: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

When Emperor Xuan Jing saw her mood turn from gloomy to cheerful, the little spark of fire left in his heart was instantly extinguished by her smile. He thought to himself, I don’t know how her family raised her. She has no scheming at all, and she does things based on her temperament, and her emotions are all shown on her face.

However, thinking of Concubine Hui's two faces, Bai Susu's true and pure character seems rare.

Emperor Xuan Jing grew up in a harem full of intrigues. Everyone around him, from the empress dowager to the concubines, was scheming and lived as if wearing a mask.

Only Bai Susu had no scruples and showed her true self: the coquettish, willful, and angry side.

She was not afraid of him, and Emperor Xuan Jing felt that getting along with her was easier than ever before, which made him lower his bottom line again and again, wanting to pamper this "unruly" noble lady Bai.

He cleared his throat, and the lines on his face softened a bit. His tone also softened unconsciously. He said, "Aren't you getting up yet?"

Bai Susu bit her lip, raised half of her body, but fell to the ground with a cry. Emperor Xuan Jing did not expect her to fall, his face changed, and he almost stood up.

Seeing how steady Emperor Xuan Jing was sitting, Bai Susu complained inwardly again. Her eyes seemed to be filled with tears as she looked at the emperor aggrievedly and said, "Your Majesty is so cruel. He questioned me as soon as he came in, not knowing that I was also injured."

As she spoke, she gently lifted the hem of her skirt with her small hands, first her ankles as white as porcelain, then her calves, which were covered with obvious scratches. Perhaps it was because Bai Susu's skin was too white and tender that these small scratches were so obvious.

Yesterday, Bai Susu pretended to faint to avoid Concubine Hui's punishment, but she also knew that if she really acted fine, she would not be able to face the emperor, so she only suffered minor scratches.

As expected, when Emperor Xuan Jing saw her injured like this, his expression changed, and he immediately became anxious. He leaned over and hugged her horizontally, his thick brows furrowed tightly: "How did you get injured like this!"

Bai Susu clasped her arms around his neck, her light breaths hitting Emperor Xuan Jing's face as she said coquettishly, "It hurts~"

Emperor Xuan Jing placed Bai Susu on the bed, then turned to the servants and said, "Call the imperial physician!"

The imperial physician was summoned to examine the case. In fact, Bai Susu's injury was not serious. It was just because Bai Susu's skin was too delicate and she was white, so the injured area looked scary.

The imperial physician left a bottle of ointment and told him to apply it once in the morning and evening, and the wound would heal in half a month.

Nanchun originally wanted to stay and apply the medicine to Bai Susu, but Bai Susu felt that she was not unable to move, so she let Nanchun go and applied it herself.

For a moment, Bai Susu and Emperor Xuan Jing were the only ones left in the room.

Emperor Xuan Jing sat on a chair beside the round table, holding a book, while Bai Susu sat on the chaise longue opposite. She dug out a ball of ointment from the porcelain jar and applied it to the affected area.

Who knew that the ointment would make the wound even more painful once it touched it? She couldn't help but hiss. Emperor Xuan Jing was watching from the side and was also in great torment. Bai Susu was only wearing her underwear. In order to apply the ointment, she rolled up her trouser legs high, revealing a jade-white little foot with toes as round as shells and beautifully curved calves.

Because of the pain, her mouth was slightly open, and her pointed chin pointed towards her shoulders. Her skin was white, like a peeled lychee, so tender that you could squeeze out the juice. It was hard to calm down just by looking at it.

Emperor Xuan Jing put down the book in his hand, went to the bed, took the medicine from Bai Susu's hand, and said sparingly, "I'm here."

Bai Susu immediately pursed her lips. Help! She really just hissed because the wound was too painful.

She didn't mean to disturb Emperor Xuan Jing from studying, nor did she mean to ask the emperor to apply medicine to her.

She didn't want the emperor to serve her!

In fact, the emperor was not very good at serving others. When he applied the ointment, his technique was sometimes light and sometimes heavy, and Bai Susu didn't dare to cry out in pain.

The result was that after Emperor Xuan Jing finished applying it, he felt that it was perfect, but when he looked up, Bai Susu's face was covered with tears.

Emperor Xuan Jing: “…”

"It hurts?"

Bai Susu whimpered for a while. She was exhausted that day. After taking the medicine, she got on the bed with Emperor Xuan Jing, found a place in his arms, and fell asleep.

Emperor Xuan Jing originally held her in his arms just to coax her, but after a while, listening to her even breathing in his arms, Emperor Xuan Jing couldn't help laughing.

Falling asleep so quickly.

He touched Bai Susu's cheek with his hand and still felt the wetness.

I couldn't help but whisper, "How stupid." It was just a show, but I could still hurt myself.

Smelling the soothing fragrance of Bai Susu, Emperor Xuan Jing fell asleep quickly.

In fact, as an emperor, he had to plan and control the country, and there were too many things in his mind and heart, so it was difficult for him to sleep well.

But when he is with Bai Susu, Emperor Xuan Jing can always sleep well.

Emperor Xuan Jing held the soft body in his arms, and before falling asleep, a thought flashed through his mind: Let her be pampered, after all, she is a treasure.

_

The pampered Bai Susu got up at the hour of Mao for the first time the next day to help Emperor Xuan Jing change his clothes.

Emperor Xuan Jing was in high spirits, even looking at the little man buttoning his clothes...

Her lips were tightly pursed, and there was a hint of irritation between her brows, as if "I'm so sleepy I don't want to get up" was written on her face.

In order not to delay his court session, Emperor Xuan Jing held her slender knuckles that had been struggling with the buttons and said lightly, "Let the palace maid come."

Being disliked by the emperor, Bai Susu was shameless. She smiled and tilted her head and said, "Then I will get the crown for the emperor."

As she spoke, she went to the side. Emperor Xuan Jing saw that she was still a little inconvenient in moving and walked very slowly.

After she took the crown and put it on the emperor, he patted her hands and said, "You are not feeling well. Take a good rest."

After saying this, he went to court.

Bai Susu took a nap and when she woke up she saw Nanchun's big smiling face.

"Master, the Emperor has sent the servants to bring you Jade Face Cream, saying it can heal your leg injury without leaving a scar."

It's no wonder that Nanchun was so excited. This Yuyan ointment is a very precious medicine for wounds. It has the effect of promoting tissue regeneration and relieving pain. One of the medicinal ingredients in it, the Tianshan Snow Lotus, is extremely rare and worth a fortune.

The emperor gave such good medicine to his master without blinking an eye. Isn't this a sign of appreciation? Isn't this a sign of favor?

Moreover, it would be fine if the master was really seriously injured. In fact, the master only had a few scratches on his legs, which was not enough to require such precious medicinal materials.

But the emperor gave it to her? Could Bai Susu refuse?

That definitely wouldn't work, so Bai Susu directly took the white porcelain jar, scooped out a little with a small jade piece, and started to apply it.

It’s true that this Jade Face Cream is different from the ointment prescribed by the imperial physician. The ointment prescribed by the imperial physician is black, smells like medicine, and causes severe stinging in the upper legs.

However, the Jade Face Cream has a milky white texture, feels cool when applied, and has a cool fragrance when smelled.

nice one!

Bai Susu thought to herself.

You know what, the fact that Emperor Xuan Jing came specially to give her the Jade Face Cream was indeed beyond her expectation.

Bai Susu pursed her lips and smiled, her heart felt as if she had drunk honey. The domineering president's favor was nothing, this was the emperor's favor.

She began to understand why the concubines in the palace fought so hard to gain favor.

Indeed, it's hard to resist.

_

The result of this sweet feeling is that Bai Susu got her period...

Bai Susu felt unhappy. She came at a really bad time. She had originally wanted to seduce Emperor Xuan Jing and thank him.

But there is nothing you can do about your period, you can only take things as they come.

All the women in the palace would report their menstrual period to the Jingshifang, and then the Jingshifang would remove the corresponding green card.

Therefore, what Emperor Xuan Jing saw that day was a tray without Bai Susu and the green top brand.

He looked around calmly and asked, "Where is Noble Lady Bai?"

Wang Fuhai knew that the emperor was thinking about Concubine Bai because of the way the emperor kept looking at Concubine Bai's legs that morning and the jade face cream he sent her.

Wang Fuhai knew that the emperor would most likely turn over the noble lady's sign today.

So since I didn’t see Lady Bai’s green card today, I naturally had to find out more about it.

So at this moment, he had a clear mind and lowered his head to reply: "Your Majesty, Concubine Bai is not feeling well, and the Imperial Household Department has removed Concubine Bai's green card."

After hearing this, Emperor Xuan Jing also understood.

I couldn't help but have the same thought as Bai Susu: this is really a bad time to come.

He had no intention of finding another person to sleep with him, but he suddenly remembered that when he went to court today, the left prime minister, a veteran of three dynasties, had made another suggestion, asking him to share the spoils equally and give birth to a prince for the Daqing Dynasty as soon as possible.

The Left Prime Minister was old, but he held considerable prestige in the court. This was simply because he was truly selfless and devoted to the country.

Do you think he has some selfish motive in wanting the Emperor to treat everyone equally? He has a daughter or granddaughter serving as a concubine in the court, and he wants to force the Emperor to favor her?

You are wrong. No one in the Zuo Xiang family has ever been a concubine. He only has two sons, and his sons also gave birth to sons. So there is no possibility of her becoming a concubine.

Only in this way can it be shown that the Left Prime Minister is completely selfless.

Thinking of the left prime minister crying in the court, Emperor Xuan Jing looked at the tray again.

I saw that the place where Bai Susu's green card was placed before was now clearly occupied by another person.

"Jiang Yuning?" Emperor Xuan Jing's voice was filled with doubt, and he had obviously forgotten that there was such a person in his palace.

Wang Fuhai took a glance and thought to himself, this is such an unlucky guy. He has been in the palace for such a long time but has not yet slept with the emperor.

The green card was placed in such a perfect position this time, I'm afraid it must have cost a lot of money.

He smiled and said, "She is Consort Jiang from Ganquan Palace. She entered the palace with Consort Bai and has not yet served in the emperor's bed."

When Bai Susu was mentioned, Emperor Xuan Jing had some impression of her. He seemed to have seen Jiang Cairen at the gate of Qixiang Palace.

It seems that she has a good relationship with Susu.

Not yet in bed...

"Then let her be."

Ganquan Hall

Jiang Yuning felt that she had never been so nervous before. She had been waiting for news while she was trying to get close to Qin Shanggong from the Jingshifang and giving her all her belongings.

She was already taking a huge gamble.

She had no choice. This kind of life of being ignored and despised was almost driving her crazy.

"My lady, my lady!" The palace maid Chunying beside him ran in breathlessly. Jiang Yuning's eyes lit up and he stared at Chunying's mouth, hoping that Chunying would tell him good news.

"Eunuch Wang is here to announce the emperor's order. He says the emperor has summoned you to his bedchamber today!"

Jiang Yuning's tense nerves relaxed, his eyes suddenly became moist, and he almost shed tears.

She was afraid that this was just a dream, so she pinched her palm hard.

The pain brought her back to her senses. She took a deep breath, forced back the tears in her eyes, and said softly, "Okay."

"Chun Ying, quickly help me dress up."

_

Jiang Yuning had been preparing for this emperor's sleepover for a long time. Her opportunity was too precious, so she wanted to make every possible preparation to ensure that she could win the emperor's favor in one go.
