"Then zhen asks you, zhen is your husband, zhen dotes on other women, do you not care at all?”Hearing her words, Jing Hao couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.
Hearing this, Su Qingyu was stunned for a moment, but then she smiled as if she was relieved."So what if I care? Emperor, you have to know that you are the Son of Heaven, you can't just belong to ChenQie alone!”
Her heart ached a little, but Su Qingyu did not think too much about it.
Staring at her delicate face for a long time, Jing Hao sighed and turned to leave the Snow Kun Palace.
"Emperor, Prince Rui has been waiting for you in the Imperial Study for a long time!”Eunuch Li couldn't help but remind him.
Nodding, Jing Hao remembered Jing Rui. Just now…he was so angry that he was muddled!
"Chen's younger brother pays his respects to the emperor!" Jing Rui bowed slightly in the royal study.
"How is it? What did you find?" Jing Hao couldn't help but ask as soon as he stepped into the royal study.
Jing Rui stood up with a serious expression."Consort Xian…is dead!"
Hearing this, Jing Hao paused. He would never have thought that the Prime Minister, that old fart, would actually lay his hands on Consort Xian! She had wanted to use this to make him hand over Consort Xian, but he had killed her…
"Imperial brother, the assistant minister of the Ministry of War…"
"Pass down the order. The daughter of the Minister of War will be buried according to the etiquette of the Imperial Consort!”Jing Hao waved his hand and asked Jing Rui to leave. He then laid down on the throne weakly.
"Yes, I will do it now!" Jing Rui's eyes lit up when he turned around.
"Assistant Minister of the Ministry of War!" Jing Rui called out to the Minister of War, who was grieving.
The assistant minister of the Ministry of War stopped in his tracks. Other than sorrow, there seemed to be a hint of anger on his face.
Jing Rui smiled. He did not care about his rudeness."Assistant Minister of the Ministry of War, Imperial Brother has already ordered a lavish burial for your daughter, and it will be with the etiquette of an Imperial Noble Consort. You should be content!"
"Bullshit!" The Assistant Minister of the Ministry of War couldn't help but curse, and his humble image was gone.
Jing Rui patted his shoulder to show his understanding.""Let's go back first."
Night fell quietly, and the sky was filled with stars. Su Qingyu stood in front of the window. A gust of cold wind blew past, and she couldn't help but shiver.
"Empress, the emperor went to Concubine Xue's place!”Xiao Xiao walked in from outside the door and deliberately lowered her voice.
Hearing this, Su Qingyu's eyes dimmed. He actually listened to her?
"You can go down and rest first! You don't have to wait for me."
Xiao Xiao nodded and didn't stay any longer. She gently closed the door for her and left.
Su Qingyu sighed softly, closed the window, and sat by the bed. Her face was slightly pale, perhaps because of the wind.
Consort Xian was already dead, but Imperial Concubine Rong was so ruthless. She didn't need to think to know who she would attack next. But…could she really escape safely?
That night, Su Qingyu tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep for a long time.
Outside the door, a dark yellow figure stood there in a daze, not leaving for a long time…
In the morning, Su Qingyu opened her eyes. The bright sunlight shone in through the window, and it was slightly dazzling.
"Niangniang, you should get up! You still have to host the consort selection today!”Wu Ye called out from beside the bed.
Hearing this, Su Qingyu opened her eyes.”
There weren't many concubines in the palace, and now that Consort Xian had died, there were even fewer concubines.
Jing Hao, I hope you don't regret letting me preside over the consort selection!
Wearing a phoenix robe and a phoenix crown, the gorgeous decorations made Su Qingyu look even more beautiful and moving. Blinking her eyes slightly, Su Qingyu looked at herself in the bronze mirror and smiled foolishly.
"Did the emperor say he wasn't coming?" Su Qingyu turned her head and asked Eunuch Li who was following behind her.
Hearing her words, Eunuch Li was slightly stunned, as if he hadn't expected her to ask this question.""Replying to the empress, the emperor said that there are still many memorials to be approved, so the consort selection ceremony will be hosted by you.”
Hearing this, Su Qingyu blinked." But…" Su Qingyu was still hesitant.
"Empress, you should hurry to the main hall! The Xiu-maidens have been waiting for a long time." Eunuch Li's tone was a little anxious." The Emperor is still waiting for us to go back and serve him!”
"Then…Eunuch, you can leave first!" Su Qingyu smiled and walked towards the main hall.
In the royal study, he caught a glimpse of Eunuch Li's slightly aged figure and asked,""How is it? She…"
"Emperor, are you really not going over?”There was no precedent for the Empress to preside over the consort selection alone! The Empress Dowager wasn't in the palace, so she naturally couldn't care. Eunuch Li was in a difficult position.
Jing Hao shook his head." Forget it. I'll leave it to her. You can go over and take a look later!"”
In the main hall, dozens of women knelt on the ground when they saw the Empress walk in.""The Empress is a thousand years old!”
Sitting on the phoenix chair, Su Qingyu looked at the people kneeling below."Get up!"
"Thank you, Empress!"
"Today's consort selection, the emperor has something to attend to and cannot come over. Everything will be decided by bengong!”
"You all know that a married chicken will follow a chicken, and a married dog will follow a dog. If you are chosen by bengong, you must have the necessary etiquette!”
"Since ancient times, women have emphasized three obedience and four virtues. Then Bengong won't waste her breath.”
"Next, the consort selection ceremony will officially begin. You can introduce yourselves and perform!”After saying this long string of words, Su Qingyu felt her mouth go dry.
Wu Ye, who was beside him, began to call out names one by one, her expression so calm.
"This official's daughter, Situ Xue, pays her respects to the Empress. I am best at painting plum blossoms.”After saying that, the woman in the pink dress began to draw quietly at the side. Her movements were so skillful and her temperament was so easygoing. Su Qingyu immediately felt that this woman was not bad.
After a while, Situ Xue put down her brush and showed the painting to Su Qingyu.
Su Qingyu was full of praise for his superb painting skills."Go to the side hall and wait."
Situ Xue nodded in agreement. Her steps were so steady and her posture was so graceful.
"My daughter Mo Yan greets the Empress…"
"My daughter Qingwu greets the Empress…"
"My daughter…"
“……”
The next few concubines were nothing more than ordinary women. Su Qingyu couldn't be bothered to continue listening. It seemed that Jing Hao, that fox, was really two-faced! When it was finally lunchtime, Su Qingyu hurriedly slipped away.
In the afternoon, Su Qingyu felt a headache coming on as she looked at the woman loitering in front of her. No wonder Jing Hao didn't want to come. It turned out that…Sigh, he thought that if he didn't come, she could do whatever she wanted here and choose a few ugly concubines for him. But when he saw it, he was dumbfounded. If ugly girls could enter the palace, then those nannies would eat sh * t?
After they finally finished introducing themselves, Su Qingyu cleared her voice and said,"Cough, cough. Pass down the order to send all the women in the imperial garden out of the palace.”
When they arrived at the side hall, three to five women were sitting together and talking at once. Only Situ Xue sat alone at the side, ignoring the others. Su Qingyu was a little puzzled, but she did not say anything.
