The imperial concubine is charming and charming, and only seeks power and wealth

However, after not seeing each other for a few days, the young emperor's majesty became more and more imposing, and Concubine Shu was speechless for a while and dared not say a word.

She didn't know if it was an illusion, but she could feel the cold aura around him, as if she would be blamed if she said one more word.

"Since you're pregnant, take good care of her," Qi Junyi said calmly, "Don't let anything go wrong."

Such concern made Lady Zhao flattered and she shyly agreed.

Qi Junyi looked at the three concubines again and said, "From now on, we can skip the daily greetings."

Concubine Hui's body stiffened for a moment, then she smiled and nodded, "That's exactly what I was thinking, Sister Zhao..."

Qi Junyi raised his hand to interrupt, "What I mean is that all the concubines are exempted from paying their respects."

This time, Concubine Hui was truly stunned. "Your Majesty... why is this happening?"

Qi Junyi said calmly, "They are all concubines. Regarding paying respects, we will discuss it with the Empress Dowager when she has a master."

Jiang Lingyue's heart skipped a beat, and she almost suspected that she had heard it wrong.

How could such harsh words as "They are all concubines" come from the mouth of a man who has always been kind to his subordinates? More importantly, when did he plan to establish a queen?

Changing the rules that had been established in the three years since he ascended the throne for no reason was a slap in the face of the three concubines in front of everyone.

Could it be that someone made him unhappy?

Is it really because of the child in Concubine Zhao's belly that he can't stand the greetings?

But this never happened in my previous life.

The concubines below were also a little surprised by such a sudden decision. Their minds, which were already nervous and excited because of his personal presence, became even more active.

Concubine Sun was the first to react and said with a smile, "In that case, I would like to thank Your Majesty for your grace on behalf of all my sisters."

She was also tactful and did not mention such a sensitive issue as who she would choose for the position of Empress.

Qi Junyi hummed indifferently, his eyes fell on Jiang Lingyue who was sitting at the end, and he stood up and said, "If there is nothing else, let's all go."

Once he spoke, who could say they had something to do? Even Concubine Hui, the owner of Shaoguang Palace, could only smile stiffly and say farewell.

He disrupted the morning study session.

Jiang Lingyue walked out of Shaoguang Palace. It had rained all night, and the stone bricks on the palace road were still wet. Countless petals fell on it. She stepped on it without even looking, and her ankle-length skirt got wet.

Jinshu, who had come with her to pay her respects, saw this and reminded her, "My lady, be careful with your step."

Jiang Lingyue was silent for a while, then hesitated and said, "You said..."

Jinshu didn't hear clearly and was about to ask for details, but she saw that the emperor's sedan chair had stopped not far in front of them.

Liu Rong, the chief eunuch, trotted over and bowed, "Miss Jiang, His Majesty invites you."

Jiang Lingyue paused and walked over.

Inside the bright yellow carriage, the young emperor sat with an elegant posture and a straight back. The spring sunshine shone through the light gauze curtains onto his body, blurring his features and softening the cold aura around him.

Jiang Lingyue only took a glance, then lowered her brows and bowed, "Greetings, Your Majesty."

"I remember telling you not to pay your respects." The voice from above was cold and indifferent, without any emotion at all.

Jiang Lingyue couldn't figure out what he meant by this, so she said cautiously, "I'm new to the palace, so I dare not be rude."

Qi Junyi lowered his eyes and looked at her quietly, not knowing what he was thinking.

Soon, he stretched out his hand to her and said, "Come up and talk."

The hand in front of him had long knuckles, smooth lines, fair skin, and a broad palm that looked very powerful. Jiang Lingyue knew that he was actually quite good at martial arts, but there was not a trace of callus on the palm of his hand, which was so beautiful that it made people lose their minds.

Jiang Lingyue hesitated for only a moment before putting her hand on it.

After all, disobeying the emperor's order in person was more terrifying than the news that she rode in the same chariot with the emperor spreading throughout the six palaces.

So, on the imperial carriage, the two of them sat side by side with their fingers intertwined, palms touching.

I wonder how many people will envy me for such an honor.

Fortunately, from today on, I don’t have to go to Shaoguang Palace for morning inspection.

Qi Junyi pinched her slender fingers and asked, "Did you walk here?"

"Your Majesty, yes," said Jiang Lingyue.

He seemed to smile, "You don't mind your legs being sore."

"..."

Jiang Lingyue was silent for a while. Didn’t he know that the eighth-grade Baolin didn’t have sedan chairs to ride in?

What's the difference between this and "Why not eat meat?"

"You were fine this morning, why are you so reserved now?" He lowered his eyes to look at her, his voice softening, "I've chosen a title for you. What do you think of 'Chen'?"

It’s the same words as in the previous life.

Jiang Lingyue smiled calmly and said, "Very good."

"Oh?" He raised his eyebrows slightly and asked curiously, "What's good about it?"

"..." Jiang Lingyue was silent, lowered her eyes and said shyly: "Your Majesty chooses the best."

He smiled again, "Isn't this a way to please me?"

Jiang Lingyue's face was burning with laughter, and she wanted to pull her hand back unconsciously, but he held it tightly.

Knowing that the little girl was still thin-skinned, he stopped teasing her and said, "Pack your things and prepare to move to the palace."

Jiang Lingyue was not surprised. After all, a concubine who had been favored by the emperor should move out of Chuxiu Palace.

In her previous life, when she was a talented woman, she lived in a side hall of the Yixiang Palace of the virtuous concubine. It was not until she was promoted to the third rank concubine that she had her own palace and became the master of a palace.

...Her only child also died in Yixiang Palace.

Even though they were separated by a lifetime, Jiang Lingyue still felt depressed when she thought of the child she was not destined to be with. She naturally suppressed all her emotions and nodded calmly.

Qi Junyi noticed that she was not in high spirits and raised his eyebrows, "Aren't you curious about where they're moving to?"

"Everything is decided by the ladies, and I will follow their arrangements." Jiang Lingyue shook her head slightly, acting out the trepidation she had felt when she first encountered the emperor's favor.

The residences of the lower-ranking concubines were, of course, arranged by Concubine Hui, who held the Wind Seal, and Concubine Shu and Concubine Xian, who assisted in managing the six palaces.

She was not curious about where he would move to, she was curious about his current attitude.

All in all, she had only been in the palace for less than two months, so why was his attitude... it was as if she had been in the palace for several years.

But when Qi Junyi heard this, he frowned.

"What do you want them to do?" He sneered and suddenly asked, "How about Ning'an Palace?"

Jiang Lingyue was startled. Before she could say anything, he seemed to realize what was happening. "I almost forgot that you just entered the palace, so you probably don't know where Ning'an Palace is. Forget it, I'll make the decision for you. Just move to Ning'an Palace and live there."

At this point, he paused and explained, "It's close to me, and it's convenient for me to come see you. How about moving there today?"

how is it?

Jiang Lingyue nodded blankly.

It's not just close, it's within reach.

Ning'an Palace was once the bedroom of Empress Xiaoyi, who was Taizu's first wife. When Taizu was conquering the world, Empress Xiaoyi was his best and virtuous wife. Their relationship was extraordinary. After the establishment of the Dahan Dynasty, Taizu never held a beauty contest to take concubines.

The couple lived together in the same palace and had four sons and two daughters. They were a loving couple that could be recorded in history books.

A year after Empress Xiaoyi passed away, Emperor Taizu also passed away. Since then, this majestic imperial palace has served many emperors, but Ning'an Palace has never had a female owner.

That is to say...
