C159

The arrival of Yinmo Chen did not disturb Jo's still graceful enthusiasm for growing flowers. She lowered her head and continued to sow the overturned soil with seeds, as if the unpleasant episode had never happened.

"Miss, Miss, your servant has returned." Before long, he heard Die'er's cheerful laughter coming from the entrance of the cold palace.

Qiao Qiao couldn't help but curl his lips. Seeing this little girl's happy appearance, he was afraid that she had completed her task.

"Miss, this servant will speak to the palace maids in the imperial kitchens according to your wishes." Miss, this servant will speak to the palace maids in the imperial kitchens according to your wishes. Die'er had a mysterious look on her face. She was breathing heavily as she ran, but she still said it with all her might.

"They've already announced it?" Joe still frowned.

"As Miss expected. In less than an hour, the entire palace found out that Esteemed Empress Dowager Rou blinded the palace maid because she was jealous of the maid by her side!" Die'er clapped her hands and shouted.

Qiao Qiao could not help but secretly nod her head. She used to understand that rumors were greater than the heavens, but she didn't expect it to have a miraculous effect in just an hour. The women of the harem were indeed a new creature that was fiercer than tigers and wolves.

"Miss, do you think Lu Er will be punished because of this?" Dia'Er secretly smiled. She knew that if Rou Fei heard about this, she would beat Lu'Er to death.

"Of course, disaster comes from the mouth. It has always been this way." Qiao Qiao continued to secretly smile, and continued to busy himself with the flowers in his hands.

"Miss, this servant will help you." Die'er was about to snatch the flower seed from Qiao Qiao's hands and throw it at the ground.

"No, I have more important things for you." Qiao Qiao sneered. She was going to the Palace to serve Yan Mo Chen at the end of the night. How could she be worthy of him if she did not prepare some gifts for him?

"What is it?" Die'er was suspicious.

"Come, when you eat dinner, go to the royal kitchen and help me fetch some …" Joe was still close to Die'er's ear, and his voice was getting lower and lower.

"Miss, what do you want these things for? These are the most taboo things to the Empress. " Die'er's face darkened. She didn't know why her young mistress wanted her to go to the imperial kitchens to retrieve these items.

"That's the empress, I'm not." Qiao Qiao still gave a haughty sneer.

"Then …" Die'er thought about it and said, "That's true."

"Alright, hurry up and go. I'll take care of these seeds myself." Qiao once again waved his hand, signalling Die'er to hurry over. Although it was already late, it could not be delayed.

Die'er saw her young miss so anxious. She didn't even have time to drink her saliva before she left the cold palace and headed in the direction of the imperial kitchens.

Although it is a little early to go and get dinner at this hour, but … The things that Miss had asked her to find, if she was late, she might not have found them. She only thought of it as a chance to try her luck.

After he finished sowing the flower seeds in his hand, he hurried into the hall. He briefly combed himself, and then tied up the 3000 strands of black hair that had been scattered behind his back into a high bun. He slightly put on some makeup before changing into a snow-like piece of muslin clothing.

Although she looked at herself in the mirror with satisfaction, she was still very happy. Now, all she had to do was wait for Die'er to bring the item over and then she could pack it up and send it to the Palace.

Sure enough, she did not disappoint him. In less than two hours, Die'er had brought all the items she wanted into the cold palace.

"Great!" Qiao still had a smile on his lips. Looking at the time outside, he feared that it was almost the Hai hour.

"Miss, what exactly do you want these things for …" Die'er covered her nose, looking at the scene in front of her with disdain.

Mustard... chili sauce … Allium sativum L. Ginger … Garlic petals …

Dia'Er couldn't help but droop her face. This was something that many women in the harem kept away from. Why did her young miss call for dinner just to eat this?!

"Haha, you don't understand." Qiao Qiao laughed lightly and happily. He grabbed a scallion and dipped it into the chili sauce. Ignoring Die'er's astonished gaze, he stuffed it into his mouth.

"Hah ~ Hah ~" Even if it was spicy, she was still exceptionally satisfied.

"Miss …" Die'er pouted. Seeing her young miss insult herself like that, she couldn't help but feel her heart ache. "If it's too spicy, don't eat it!"

"It's nothing, hiss ~ ~" Qiao Qiao continued to say as he stuffed the ginger and garlic leaves at the side into his mouth.

"But... "Miss …" Die'er couldn't help but turn her head away. Looking at the way she was holding herself up, she really couldn't bear it. She didn't know why she was tormenting herself like that.

At the entrance of the cold palace, a bustling noise interrupted Qiao Qiao who was still huffing and puffing. She gave Die'er a look, and she immediately understood what she meant and walked towards the entrance.

"Miss, the emperor's carriage has arrived. Please come with me to the palace to sleep." At the door, Eunuch Zhao slowly said.

"Serving!?" cried Dia. Why did the Emperor suddenly go to bed?

Eunuch Zhao looked at Die'er with disdain and said with an extremely unfriendly tone, "Where is the lady inside? "Hurry up and follow me."

Qiao Qiao once again straightened his clothes, trying his best to hold back the spicy taste in his mouth. Casually putting the mustard on the table between his sleeves, he leisurely walked towards the door.

"Little …" "Sister!" Die'er looked at her young miss's calm appearance and finally understood why her young miss wanted to eat such tasty things. It seemed that her young miss had already known that she was going to sleep tonight.

However … The other madams would spend a lot of effort to clean themselves up and wash themselves thoroughly. However, why did their young lady have to make her body smell so bad?

Before Die'er could think about it, she saw that Joe's small steps had already reached the entrance of the cold palace.

"Dia'Er, when the time comes, you will wait for me at the entrance of the Palace." Qiao Qiao turned his head back and said to Die'er in a soft voice.

Die'er was slightly stunned. Tonight, Miss went to serve the Emperor. When the hour was over, she would return as soon as it was over. Could it be that the Emperor didn't have enough stamina!? However... Suddenly, she thought back to the day when the young mistress had first arrived at the Imperial Palace. She had clearly cried out for an entire night, so if the emperor was lacking in strength, then it wouldn't make sense. But she still didn't understand why the young mistress had asked her son to bring her back from the Imperial Palace.

After saying that, Qiao Qiao stepped onto the carriage and slowly walked in the direction of the palace.

As she rode on the same old horse carriage that Qiao Qiao was using, two people lifted it up from the back and front of the palace, accompanied by Eunuch Zhao. As she rode on the same old horse carriage that was being used by the palace, two people lifted it up from the back and back of the palace.

Eunuch Zhao remained silent the entire way. He couldn't understand why this sinner girl from the Cold Palace would be so special even if she was his imperial concubine. He couldn't even take half a step into the palace, much less the imperial concubine's concubine.

However, she had once harmed the daughter of a loyal official and the imperial concubine. No matter how much the Emperor pampered her, it would be difficult for her to ascend to the post of imperial concubine.

Not too far away, a group of palace maids carrying a luxurious looking carriage came face to face with Qiao Qiao's small carriage. When Eunuch Zhao saw who was coming, he couldn't help but shout coldly, "Put this lady's carriage to the side and make way for esteemed wangfei."

After hearing Eunuch Zhao's words, Qiao Qiao still looked towards the luxurious carriage coming from the opposite side. It was a weak, lithe, and tottering woman with gentle eyebrows. She was wearing a luxurious light purple dress and was rather gentle and virtuous.

"Halt." A soft and weak voice came from the side. That luxurious footsteps continued to slow down by Qiao Qiao's side.

"This old servant pays his respects to esteemed wangfei." Eunuch Zhao said politely with a smile on his face.

"Eunuch Zhao, get up. I don't know who this lady is …" Hui Fei gazed at Qiao who was sitting on the carriage as she smiled amiably.

"To reply esteemed wangfei, this lady is a sinner from the cold palace." Eunuch Zhao replied.

"Oh?" Hui Fei's eyes became calm as she looked at Qiao once more with a hint of envy. "She's the girl that dared to enter the palace in place of big sister Lan?"

"Reporting to the Empress, it is precisely this person."

"Where are we going?" Hui Fei asked curiously.

"The emperor has ordered that this person will go to the Palace to sleep tonight." Eunuch Zhao spoke truthfully.

"Serving?" Imperial Concubine Hui's voice wasn't very loud, but it wasn't that shocked. Instead, there was a hint of incredulity in her tone. She originally thought that this woman would be living in the cold palace for the rest of her life, but she didn't expect that the emperor would actually summon her to serve as his concubine!

Eunuch Zhao's expression changed as he didn't know how to respond.

"Since it's the Emperor who is taking care of you, then hurry up and go over so that you don't miss the timing." Huaifei's gentle smile slowly bloomed on her gentle face as she spoke with a tone as gentle as water. However, from the corner of her eyes, she intentionally or unintentionally looked at Qiao Qiao's body.

"Respectfully sending off the Empress." Eunuch Zhao bowed, and waved his hand to signal them to continue their journey.

When he met this esteemed wangfei, Qiao Qiao's expression did not change at all. Not even a ripple appeared in her eyes. She seemed to have nothing to do with him. She just sat alone on the carriage, enduring the spicy taste in her mouth.

After bidding Esteemed Empress Hui farewell, the journey was quite peaceful. At least they didn't run into any empress delaying them. In less than a quarter of an hour, the carriage had safely stopped in front of the Palace's entrance.
