The first half of the ancestral worship ceremony ended solemnly. Emperor Zhu Qizhen entered the ancestral temple alone to pay his respects to his ancestors.
The officials and the people in the harem, including the Empress Dowager, had to kneel outside the ancestral temple.
It was only when Zhu Qizhen's personal eunuch, Zhao De, came out and ordered everyone to leave that they stood up and left.
At the entrance of the ancestral temple, the ministers and the harem beauties dispersed. Sun Ruowei suddenly called out to Qi Muge.
"Stop!"
Qimu Ge stuck out his tongue and quickly turned around to salute Sun Ruowei."May the Empress Dowager be blessed."
"I heard that the emperor has been staying in Zhong Cui Palace for the past two days?”
"Replying to the Empress Dowager, these two days it has been the concubines serving the emperor.”
Beside Sun Ruowei stood a very beautiful girl. She looked very obedient and sensible. She had been supporting the Empress Dowager.
"This widow's body hasn't been feeling well these two days and wants you to come to Ci Ning Palace to serve.”
Qi Muge looked at Sun Ruowei blankly and said innocently,"Of course! To be able to serve the Empress Dowager, that was a concubine's blessing? However, didn't the Empress Dowager already have someone to take care of her?”
She looked at Qian Jinluan.
Sun Ruowei quickly explained,"The Empress Dowager is seriously ill, and the other servants are worried about taking care of this widow, so I sent Jin Luan to Chuxiu Palace to take care of her." You've been serving the emperor for the past few days. This widow is worried about your health and wants to transfer you to this widow's palace to serve him for a few days.”
Qimu Ge rolled his eyes and then said in a mischievous manner,"This little sister will definitely take better care of the Empress Dowager than a concubine, so why not let a concubine take care of the Grand Empress Dowager. Otherwise, the Empress Dowager would not be able to bear to part with this little sister.”
Sun Ruowei was speechless.
This Qimu Ge had a straightforward personality, and she really couldn't do anything about it.
Qian Jinluan was extremely intelligent and quickly tried to smooth things over for the Empress Dowager."Younger Sister is deeply impressed that Elder Sister can understand the big picture.”
"Then from tomorrow onwards, Beauty Qi will be responsible for taking care of the Empress Dowager." Sun Ruowei said lightly. Jin Luan, let's go!"
Sun Ruowei left with Qian Jinluan.
On the way, Sun Ruowei said to Qian Jinluan,"Jinluan, do you know this widow's good intentions?"”
"I understand."
"It's good that you understand. Beauty Qi has already hooked onto the Emperor's soul, you have to hurry up.”
"Beauty Qi is as beautiful as a flower and jade. Even the concubines like her very much. How could the emperor not love her? The concubines didn't have that kind of fortune and were already content to be able to serve the Empress Dowager.”
"You silly girl, you're always so aloof from worldly affairs, that's why those girls with ulterior motives take advantage of you. If you can become aijia's daughter-in-law, aijia's mouth will be crooked from smiling.”
"Empress Dowager, don't make fun of this concubine. This concubine doesn't dare to think about anything right now and only wants to stay by the Empress Dowager's side and serve her well.”
……
After Qi Muge watched Sun Ruowei and Qian Jinluan leave, he suddenly stared at the ancestral temple's door not far away.
The emperor is worshipping his ancestors in the ancestral temple. He must be very lonely, right?
Ji Xiang saw that Qi Muge wanted to enter the ancestral temple and quickly stopped him,""Little Master, don't! The imperial family's ancestral temple could not be trespassed, or they would be beheaded.”
"There's no one here. What's there to be afraid of? You keep watch for me, I'll sneak in.”
"Little Master, stop fooling around. Let's go back.”
"Are you going or not?"
Ji Xiang was helpless and could only help Qi Muge to release the wind.
If the Emperor hadn't ordered everyone outside the ancestral temple, including the guards, to leave, how would they have had the chance to let Qimu Ge in?
Qi Muge tiptoed and pushed open the door of the ancestral temple. He flashed into the ancestral temple and immediately closed the door.
She turned around and saw Zhu Qizhen's small body kneeling piously in the ancestral temple, paying homage to his ancestors.
Zhu Qizhen said somewhat angrily,"Who has the guts to do this?" You even dare to barge into the Imperial Ancestral Temple?"
"Little Dragon, it's me... I'm here to say goodbye to you. I can't serve you for the next two days. I was transferred by the Empress Dowager to Chuxiu Palace to serve the Grand Empress Dowager. If I'm disturbing you, I'll go out now.”
"Come back!"
Qi Muge quickly knelt beside Zhu Qizhen and said with an aggrieved expression,"The emperor won't give me a death sentence just because I barged in without permission, right? I'm so scared."
"You're really bold! This was the royal family's ancestral temple, and they would lose their heads! Did anyone find out? If someone finds out, even I can't protect you.”
Qimu Ge giggled and said,"I came in because I didn't see anyone." I have Ji Xiang to keep a lookout for me. Nothing will happen.”
"Silly girl. The empress dowager asked you to take care of the grand empress dowager. Do you feel wronged? If you don't want to go, then zhen will go and talk to the empress dowager.”
"How can that do? Wouldn't that make things difficult for the emperor? I don't want the emperor to be in a difficult position. However, if I go to take care of the Empress Dowager, I won't be able to see the emperor. What compensation does the emperor plan to give the concubines?”Qi Muge blinked his big eyes and looked at Zhu Qizhen with an innocent expression.
Zhu Qizhen scratched Qi Muge's nose and said,"I am very happy that you have such filial piety. Naturally, I will reward you heavily. I will give you a promotion and reward you with gold, silver, and silk.”
"I don't want these things," Qi Muge said with a pout.”
"Then what do you want?"
"If this concubine takes good care of the Grand Empress Dowager, then the emperor will often come to Zhong Cui Palace to visit this concubine, and like two days ago, we can have a long chat and play games on the bed.”
Zhu Qizhen was stunned.
"I promise you."
" Thank you, Little Dragon!!!" Qi Muge lightly pecked Zhu Qizhen's cheek, then sneakily left the ancestral temple.
Meanwhile, Zhu Qizhen was stunned by Qimu Ge's kiss…
Why did this girl suddenly…change so much?
