The wives of the concubines are empresses

While people were enjoying the flowers here, two elegant men came from the fork in the road.

"My Lady Xuanpin, it's rare to see you in such good spirits coming to the Imperial Garden to enjoy the scenery." The speaker was Concubine Hua - Tang Yihua.

Xuanpin-Song Xuanyi smiled gently: "Isn't Huapin the same as the concubine?"

Kang Jiandu saw a figure in front of him and after a closer look he realized it was the emperor.

"My two lords, the emperor is in front."

Liuli saw a beautiful red spider lily and raised her hand to pick a blood-red red spider lily.

"Your Majesty, this flower is so beautiful. Let me put it on you."

Shangguan Wanjun knew it was the red spider lily, and lowered her head slightly. The glass flowers were happily inserted into her hair, and she smiled gently.

"So lovely."

After getting familiar with them, Minglan would occasionally make a few jokes.

"Liuli asked, are flowers more beautiful or people more beautiful?"

Liuli said coquettishly: "Of course people are more beautiful than flowers, the emperor is more beautiful."

Everyone covered their mouths with their handkerchiefs and laughed secretly, and Shangguan Wanjun shook her head helplessly.

"You guys..."

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. May your Majesty be well and at peace."

Hearing the familiar voice, Shangguan Wanjun turned around.

"So it's Concubine Hua and Concubine Xuan. Why are you two together today?"

In my impression, the concubines in the harem seem to be loners.

Xuanpin-Song Xuanyi smiled gently: "Your Majesty, we met by chance on the road. We both happened to be out for a walk, so we decided to go together."

"Since we've met by chance, let's go sit in the pavilion over there for a while."

The two of them bowed and said, "Yes."

With Liuli's support, Shangguan Wanjun stroked her dress and sat down.

"I didn't expect there would be so many lotus flowers blooming."

Mu Xiang smiled when she saw it: "Ouhe, why are you down there?"

Ouhe was stunned: "Ah, am I not next to you?"

When everyone heard this, they covered their faces and laughed, leaving Ouhe alone with her eyes wide open in confusion.

Minglan shook her head and laughed, "Look, aren't there lotus roots and lotus flowers under the pond?"

After Minglan reminded her, Ouhe finally reacted.

"Your Majesty, Mu Xiang is making fun of me again." How abominable.

Mu Xiang raised her head towards her proudly: "I'll let you be the happy pill again, you have to thank me."

"What? You're making fun of me, and I should thank you. You're dreaming."

Liuli covered her mouth and laughed secretly, agreeing aloud: "Sister Muxiang is beautiful."

When Ouhe heard this, she pouted and said, "Little Liuli, you have become bad."

Woo woo woo, everyone comes to bully her.

Shangguan Wanjun, holding a phoenix round fan, lowered her head to cover her face and smiled.

"Just say it, you won't lose a piece of meat."

When everyone heard this, they laughed even harder, and Ouhe was so angry that she tore her handkerchief into pieces.

"Your Majesty, you are so evil."

Shangguan Wanjun chuckled and raised her eyes: "Oh, our little fairy is so beautiful even when she is angry."

As soon as she said this, Ouhe was made to cry and laugh.

"Your Majesty, you are really..." It's so embarrassing. There are two concubines next to him.

Xuanpin Song Xuanyi and Huapin Tang Yihua were surprised to find that the emperor was also a thoughtful, witty and humorous person. They thought their previous views were too one-sided.

Xuanpin-Song Xuanyi was stunned when he saw the dazzling golden lantern flower on the girl's hair, and his brows furrowed slightly.

"Why did the Emperor bring such a flower?"

Shangguan Wanjun looked up, confused: "What?"

Liuli was startled: "Xuanpin, this flower was put on His Majesty by this servant, but what's wrong with that?"

It’s over. She won’t get into trouble, right?

Xuanpin-Song Xuanyi sighed and explained: "The golden lantern flower is also known as the other shore flower. Its flowers and leaves will never meet each other, so it is called the grass of no loyalty. Its meaning is not very good."

Liuli's face changed drastically and she quickly knelt down to apologize.

"Your Majesty, I didn't mean it. I just thought the flowers were beautiful..." It was over. She was really in trouble.

Shangguan Wanjun smiled gently: "Minglan, help her up. I understand what Xuanpin said. You are just being kind. I don't blame you."

The two concubines were surprised. How could the emperor let the palace maid go so easily?

You should know that among the noble families in the capital, if anyone encounters such a thing, they will be very angry. The maids will be punished with dozens of strokes of the cane at the very least, and even sold off at the worst.

No matter which outcome, it will be unpleasant both physically and mentally.

Looking at the pretty girl, whose face was full of fear and anxiety, Shangguan Wanjun chuckled.

"I said it's fine, why are you still like that? Don't you believe me?"

Liuli shook her head: "No, I have never thought about it that way." Since she entered the palace, she was chosen by Li Ma, who was by the Empress' side at the time, to serve in her master's palace. It has been more than ten years now.

How could she not know what her master was like?

Although princesses in the past were more indulgent in eating, drinking and having fun, they were really kind to the palace maids and eunuchs. They would reason with them and would not punish them for no reason.

For a long time, as servants of the princess, they lived the safest and most comfortable lives in the entire palace.

The princess was generous and often rewarded them with gold, silver, jewelry, delicious food and sweets, which gave them a lot of experience.

Seeing the tears on her face that had not been wiped away, Shangguan Wanjun couldn't bear to blame her too much.

"It's good that you haven't thought about it. Come, have a piece of osmanthus cake to calm your nerves."

"Your Majesty, I thank you." Her emperor is so kind.

Concubine Xuan-Song Xuanyi was a little frightened. The emperor was so nice to the palace maids and eunuchs.

"It's all my fault for scaring Miss Liuli."

Shangguan Wanjun shook her head: "My beloved concubine is also thinking about me, what's wrong with that? Let's have some cakes and tea, and don't think about those unhappy things."

The atmosphere was excellent, the sun was shining, and there was always laughter and joy coming from the pavilion.

After Concubine Xuan-Song Xuanyi left, only Shangguan Wanjun and Concubine Hua-Tang Yihua were left in the pavilion.

Their eyes accidentally met and they both quickly lowered their heads.

Huapin-Tang Yihua picked up the teacup and took a sip to hide her embarrassment.

Shangguan Wanjun ate the osmanthus cake quietly without looking up.

Huapin Tang Yihua looked up again and found some pastry crumbs at the corner of the girl's mouth. He reached out to wipe them away, which made Shangguan Wanjun very confused.

"you……"

"Your Majesty, there is some crumb at the corner of your mouth. I will help you get rid of it."

For a moment, Shangguan Wanjun's face turned slightly red.

"profound……"

Minglan and the others felt that the air was filled with ambiguity and felt a little awkward.

Liu Cheng noticed Minglan's gaze and quietly led his men out of the pavilion. When the two of them discovered that they were the only ones in the pavilion.

Huapin - Tang Yihua sighed at the insight of the crowd. Although he also felt that the atmosphere was ambiguous, he also felt it was a kind of enjoyment.

Shangguan Wanjun fell into a warm embrace without noticing.

"You..." Her God, this was a crime for her.

Huapin-Tang Yihua saw the panic that flashed across her face and smiled gently.

"Your Majesty, have you missed me recently?"

"I... I..." Oh my god, asking this question in front of a handsome man is definitely making her commit a crime.

"Your Majesty, your husband misses you." Concubine Hua - Tang Yihua lowered her head and reached out to play with Shangguan Wanjun's beautiful hands.

Looking at the other person's eyes and eyebrows closely, Shangguan Wanjun kept swallowing her saliva.

"Um...put me down first. I need to go back to take care of official business." She pushed the other person lightly, but failed to move him forward. She didn't know whether it was because she didn't have enough strength or she didn't try her best.

The people waiting at the pavilion corridor would peek into the pavilion from time to time.
