C7 Outside the Palace

The Empress Dowager smiled and said to Chun Yu in the mirror, "After following Aijia for so many years, my ability to talk rubbish has not changed at all."

"It is all because of Empress Dowager that you pamper."

"This time around, excluding the talent show, there was also the forced entry of a Yuan Hou's younger sister. Imperial Noble Consort is afraid that her heart would not be happy but at that position, she had to endure all of this. This is how all the women in the Palace come over." When the Empress Dowager said this, she suddenly changed the topic and asked, "Is Bao Luo back?"

Chun Yu was already prepared and immediately replied, "She came back early and has been waiting for your summons."

"Then let her come over." The Empress Dowager nodded.

Even though she had waited for half a day just to see the Empress Dowager, Bao Luo was still slightly flustered at this moment. The Empress Dowager on Noble Consort's chair was idle but she gave off an oppressive aura for no reason. After all, she was a woman who nurtured an emperor. Without the ability, how could she reach this position.

Bao Luo respectfully bowed and did not dare to breathe loudly. The Empress Dowager did not say anything and calmly asked, "Aijia's meaning, did you convey it to that Miss Fu?"

Bao Luo replied with a frown. "Replying to the Empress Dowager's words, this servant followed your intentions and spoke of Imperial Noble Consort's position in the Palace and the position in the Emperor's heart. Worthy Lady roughly heard it in her heart."

The Empress Dowager sighed and said to Chun Yu beside her, "Aijia originally did not wish for it to be like this. But looking at the six palaces, her identity was rare. If it really becomes flamboyant, even if the Emperor has the intention of suppressing her... She would still have to think about it carefully, so she might as well teach him a lesson first. Yingzhen still had to enter the Central Palace in the next few days. Her place was not chaotic. The Inner Palace will not be in chaos. "

Chun Yu naturally picked up the good news. She said, "Your Ladyship, your foresight is all for the sake of the country."

"Then what is Fu Qingzhi's character like?" The Empress Dowager turned her head to ask Bao Luo.

"Replying to the Empress Dowager's words, Worthy Lady Fu knows the proper etiquette. She has the bearing of a young lady from a noble family." Bao Luo bit her lips and finally said. "Please forgive me, Empress Dowager. When I was in the Fu Mansion, Worthy Lady Fu felt that this servant was half a teacher to her and respected this servant in every way. Even the entire Fu Mansion was respectful to this servant. Before leaving, Fu Mansion prepared a gift for this servant but this servant could not delay it. I can only accept it. "

"Oh? What are they?"

Bao Luo had been in the Palace for a long time and was in Wanshou Palace. The things that she learned from watching from the sidelines were enough to teach her endlessly. She guessed that the Empress Dowager would ask such a question and had long memorized the Fu Mansion's gift list. Now, she directly said it without hiding anything.

The Empress Dowager did not have any difficult words to say and only said, "Fu family is also very careful. What you said is just ordinary jewelry. The silver was also exchanged for broken silver, but it was just used to arrange things. It's not a big deal." At this point, she changed the topic, "But from your tone, you seem to like Worthy Lady Fu very much?"

Bao Luo was shocked and cold sweat broke out on her back. She knew that she had been lenient to others, let alone Fu Qingzhi, who truly respected her. For a moment, she liked it and was soft-hearted, except for the things that the Empress Dowager had instructed her to do. She had also said quite a few things that had nothing to do with her. This kind of thing could very well cause the Empress Dowager to be unhappy. She could only force herself to remain calm and once again prostrated on the ground, "This servant dare not. She only said what she had seen and heard in Fu Manor. In this servant's eyes, Worthy Lady Fu was like this. But this servant's identity and vision are naturally unable to see through people."

The Empress Dowager waved her hand, indicating that she need not be so careful. "Aijia understands very well what kind of person you are. Even if there is something that is not true, you will not harbor any ill intentions. Go and rest. You have done well in this matter. Let Chun Yu reward you tomorrow."

Bao Luo expressed her gratitude and left the back of the bed before feeling that her body was cold and her clothes were already drenched in cold sweat. She sighed. As a servant, she could only follow Mistress. Fortunately, although the Empress Dowager's words were sharp, she was still kind and generous to her servants. As long as the state and state were not thrown into chaos, she would most likely turn a blind eye to it.

It was usually like this in the Imperial House. The servants were guessing Mistress's thoughts while the concubines were guessing the Emperor's thoughts. The long night had turned into the rising sun and there were chirping birds chirping on the branches outside the window. Just in this morning, Fu Qingzhi bade farewell to her parents and sat on the carriage, heading towards the direction of the Imperial Palace.

It was an hour that had been set early in the morning. At that time, Qingzhi already had a servant waiting in front of the door. Just as she got off the carriage, there was a melodious "Big Sister" behind her. Dong Yutang went forward to greet Fu Qingzhi and said, "Younger Sister greets Big Sister."

Qingzhi did not expect to meet her here. Previously she did not have the intention to inquire about Dong Yutang's grade and did not dare to be careless. She still replied with a flat bow and said faintly, "Younger sister is also here."

Fortunately, the eunuch by the side had good eyesight and brought along a group of young eunuchs to rush over to flatter and point out their grade. "This servant, Royal Affair Department's Steward Jiang Youde, greets Worthy Lady and the beauties, young mistress." "This servant, Royal Affair Department's Steward Jiang Youde, greets Worthy Lady and the two beauties."

Oh, so it was only a beauty from the Seventh Stage rank that was five grades away from him. Fu Qingzhi said, "Eunuch need not be overly courteous." Calculating in her heart, she knew that Dong Yutang had always been unsatisfied. Now that she was so much higher than her, she could avoid her from causing trouble.

Sure enough, when Dong Yutang heard that Qingzhi was a rank 5 official Worthy Lady, the smile on her face could not be hung. She was conferred a beauty and was praised by the heavens at home.

Dong Yutang's father borrowed the relationship of distant relatives to climb up to the empress dowager and got a position in the household department. His daughter was about to enter the Palace and become the Emperor's woman. The entire family was already very pleased. The other relatives came to celebrate and were all putting in effort to curry favor, but just as they arrived at the Palace gates... Someone told her that in the Inner Palace, there was a little beauty... She had never been a big deal.

Fu Qingzhi did not have the time to think about what Dong Yutang was thinking under her gradually darkening face. The beautiful ladies had already arrived one after another. After Meng Nianyun got off the car, she looked left and right to look for her. Qingzhi waved her hand and saw Meng Nianyun smiling as she walked over.

Just when she was in front of Qingzhi, she bowed and said earnestly, "Elder sister, I, I also do not know why I entered the Palace. Originally I wanted to explain to elder sister but the upbringing aunt in the Palace said that it was not proper."

Qingzhi pulled her up and said softly, "Explain what? It is a good thing that you can bring glory to the family. In the future, we are all people who serve the Emperor. The fate of sisters cannot be severed."

Meng Nianyun carefully sized up and only when she saw that Qingzhi's face did not have any displeasure did she smile in relief.

Jiang Youde stood to the side and the eunuch's unique voice suppressed the young girls' joking noise, "This servant Jiang Youde greets young mistress. young mistress invites all of you to follow this servant to your own palace pavilion."

This was an important matter. Everyone shivered and was led by Jiang Youde and a group of eunuchs into the palace.
