In a flash, it’s the day of the Double Ninth Festival.
According to the rules of the palace, on the Double Ninth Festival, everyone, regardless of high or low status, must be taken by the Queen to Shoukang Palace to pay respects to the Queen Mother.
"The Double Ninth Festival is such a long time!" Shen Ruochen started to dress up early in the morning and couldn't help but muttered, "After paying her respects, I have to kneel to the Queen Mother, and after kneeling, we have to eat together. After the meal, I continued to kneel and meditate, and then the Queen Mother woke up, and I had to chat with the Queen Mother. It was a long walk!"
Shen Ruochen couldn't help but feel worried, "Aren't you exhausted from this big day?"
"Little Master, you said something you shouldn't say again!" Little Walnut said while busy, "The word "death" is taboo in the palace and cannot be said!"
"I'm just saying this in our palace!"
"That's not possible," said Little Walnut, "Sister Guizhi told me early this morning that the emperor will definitely be able to go, so I want you to behave well, my young master! Try to get the emperor to come and see you."
"What are you looking at me for?" Shen Ruochen curled his lips, "It would be better if you never think of me!"
"Little Master!" Little Walnut said, "Don't say that again in the future. What happened last time scared me to death. From now on, let's just be obedient. Don't do anything outrageous."
Shen Ruochen nodded, "Okay, why don't I just listen to you? When did you become so stubborn..."
Kunning Palace.
Queen Nala lay on the bed and did not dare to move. She said to Nianyu helplessly, "Tell them that I am not feeling well. They can go to Shoukang Palace to pay their respects!"
"Don't be angry, Madam. It's serious business for us to take good care of the fetus now. The Emperor values your fetus very much!" Nianyu comforted, "I believe the Queen Mother can also understand."
Queen Nala nodded, "You can go there in person later and plead guilty for me. It is also our sincere heart."
"Yes!" Nianyu responded.
Shen Ruochen stood listlessly in the yard. It was almost the beginning of winter. The early morning wind made his body feel chilly. Shen Ruochen couldn't help but wrap his cloak tightly around him.
"Shen agrees that it's cold?"
Suddenly someone spoke, which attracted the attention of the people around, and they all looked at Shen Ruochen. This made Shen Ruochen very uncomfortable.
Looking up, it was Xiang Bin who was speaking.
"Happy concubine," Shen Ruochen saluted according to the rules, "I'm not cold, I'm just blocking the wind."
"This is the Double Ninth Festival. I'm here to pay my respects to the queen. Shen promised not to come in normal times. Now I finally have the opportunity to come. Don't lose your etiquette!" Xiangbi snorted contemptuously.
Shen Ruochen felt angry. Is this guy sick? Why are you seeking your own bad luck?
In line with the principle of not causing trouble and not being conspicuous, Shen Ruochen held back his anger and said, "Thank you, Empress Xiangbi, for reminding me."
"I don't have the intention to remind you. It's just to avoid causing trouble to the Queen, so that you don't understand the rules and upset the Queen!" Concubine Xiang touched the hairpin on her head, twisted her body and said to the people around her, "Hmph! What can a concubine from a small family know?"
Soon, there were a lot of ridiculing sounds all around. Both the favored and the unfavored despised him, as if despising someone made him noble.
Shen Ruochen didn't want to be acquainted with them, so he took two steps back and prepared to look at something else. Unexpectedly, Xiangbi got even more aggressive, "I'm reprimanding you. It's your blessing. Why, you still don't want to listen? You want to hide?" Where are you going? I didn’t ask you to promise to kneel down and listen, but you’re not willing to do it anymore?”
Shen Ruochen couldn't bear it anymore, "Ms. Xiangbi, we are all here to pay our respects to the Queen. Why are you making such a loud noise?"
"I have long heard that Shen promised to be trembling now. If so, he would dare to talk back to me!" Concubine Xiang stared at her eyes and said sarcastically, "A few days ago, I heard that Shen promised to send the girl back. There was a commotion in the Imperial Hospital, and it looks like there will be a big commotion in Kunning Palace today? Who gave you the courage! A small promise, and you are so arrogant! I think you are just looking for a fight!"
"I think you are looking for a fight!" Suddenly, Concubine Jin strode in with someone, and said coldly, "Kunning Palace is really busy today! It seems that I am late today. !”
"Sister!" Shen Ruochen ran over, "Sister, aren't you saying that you can't come?"
The relatives of Concubine Jin rushed back to Mongolia before the Double Ninth Festival. Maybe the three grids were too small and caught a cold when they were sent away. They have been having a fever these days. Concubine Jin said yesterday that she would not come today. Already asked for leave.
Concubine Jin whispered, "Aren't you afraid that you will be wronged? You are very powerful in front of people you know well, but you are deflated in front of outsiders, right?"
"Aren't I afraid of attracting attention and causing trouble?" Shen Ruochen also whispered, "I just recited sutras at that time."
"What bastard is chanting!" Concubine Jin deliberately said loudly, "I think it's more like a bastard who came out to act like a monster. I have already said it. Shen promised to be my sister. Anyone who can't get along with her can't get along with me. , it seems that many of these people are going to fight with me!"
Jin Fei's domineering words made everyone lower their heads in fear and said, "I don't dare!"
"The concubines and Shen Zheng are joking around. Please calm down, Princess Jin."
No one in this palace knows that even the emperor has to give Jin Concubine three points. Not to mention how tough her backstage is, but Jin Concubine’s fearless temperament and the whip in her hand can make people Terrified! When the imperial concubine was there, didn't he also whip the concubine in front of the imperial concubine? Afterwards, the emperor not only did not blame others, but also sent the one who was beaten into the cold palace.
This strength is obviously extraordinary!
Concubine Jin ignored everyone and stared at Concubine Xiang, saying, "When I first came in, I seemed to hear you shouting the loudest. Why don't you say anything now? Don't you want to hit someone? Do it!"
Concubine Xiang felt a little trembling when she saw Concubine Jin. But thinking that this was Kunning Palace, Concubine Jin must not dare to do anything. There were so many people present, so she had the courage to salute and said, "Concubine Jin is auspicious, concubine. I was afraid that Shen promised to break the rules, so I just gave him a few words of advice."
"Exhortation? This doesn't sound like it to me!" Concubine Jin walked slowly to Xiangbi and snorted, "Why don't you dare to tell the truth! Tell me!"
A sudden loud shout made Xiang Concubine tremble in fright, and she stuttered, "I just saw that Shen promised to disobey, so to scare Shen into agreeing is not to really beat her."
Concubine Jin sneered a few times and circled around Xiangbi, "I don't know that Xiangbi is so powerful now. The Queen of Kunning Palace has Xiangbi in charge of the business, and she still dares to punish her. The concubine is gone! She has become more capable! Is it because the empress is no longer here, or is this palace no longer here?"
