C11 Consort Su Miaofeng

Jinghua Palace, Ya Feng Hall.

Although she had been grounded for a year, the decorations of the Ya Feng Hall were still noble and unfriendly. It was evident that this concubine was quite a favorite even before she was grounded.

Feng Jing Yi and Qin'er lowered their heads slightly and followed Lu Lu into the hall. They bowed, "This servant greets Mistress Nun Jing."

"Raise your head and speak." The concubine said.

Feng Jing Yi raised his head to look at the woman sitting on the seat of honor. She wasn't as elegant as a peony, but she was as elegant as an orchid. Although she looked gentle, she had a pair of eyes as clear as a spring.

"What's your name?" The concubine glanced at him indifferently and asked while she ate.

"This servant is Qin Fang."

"Servant Susu." Feng Jingyi said.

The silent concubine's gaze lingered on her face for a while. Her gaze seemed distant, as if she was looking at the person in front of her, but also seemed to be looking at another person through the person in front of her.

"Those eyes... "It really does look like it."

Although Feng Jing Yi was curious about who his eyes looked like, he couldn't ask too many questions.

After a long while, the concubine's expression returned to normal, and she asked lightly, "The cooking skills of the past two days are not bad. Who prepared it?"

"Yes, servant." Qin Fang lowered her head and replied.

Because of that, she would often cook dishes with different tastes. If Feng Jingyi ate well, she would eat more, and her culinary skills were not any worse than the imperial chef.

"Your servant has also seen how delicious this dish is," Green Sleeves advised with a smile. "Your servant has also seen how delicious this dish is, and Empress, you should eat more.

Feng Jing Yi didn't say anything, he just quietly observed his concubine's expression. He didn't seem to be too happy about the release of the year's confinement, he was actually a bit troubled.

She didn't know what had grounded her for a year a year ago, but it had disheartened her even more.

However, the battle for the harem would not stop because of her retreat, and the first step of her plan would not stop just like that.

"If there's nothing else, you can leave." The concubine instructed lightly.

When they returned to the kitchen, Feng Jing Yi and Qin Fang continued with their unfinished dinner, but the meal was already cold.

"Qinfang, go and meet up with the person from Mo Yan tomorrow. I have something that I need her and Young Master Chen's help with." Feng Jing Yi said as he ate. His clear eyes were as cold as snow.

She secretly established a hidden moon with the Shangguan Family during the second year of her reign. This was mainly to guard against the ambitions of the Da Xia Empire and the Northern Han, but she didn't expect the people of the Hidden Moon Restaurant to already be in the Southern Tang before they had a chance to take root in the Da Xia Empire.

"The concubine seems to be tired of the court battle. Can she still help us?" Qin Fang asked.

"It's not that she'll let others go just because she's tired of them. Rather than waiting until she has nowhere to retreat to before resisting again, I might as well give her a push so that she can strike first."

From today onwards, she would begin to play a game of chess at the Grand Xia. The chess pieces would be the flower-like concubines in the imperial harem.

However, she didn't expect that in the near future, she would become one of them.
