Chapter 254 3 Idiots
Gu Shijin narrowed his eyes. Well, after talking so much, we are finally getting to the point.
"I wonder if the Imperial Concubine has ever seen the Concubine Zhaoyi? I heard that she is a stunningly beautiful woman." Concubine Wen looked at Gu Shijin and said.
Gu Shijin really couldn't help but roll his eyes. Are these people fools?
"If Concubine Wen is interested in Concubine Feng, you can go to Yonghe Palace to find Concubine Feng. I believe Concubine Feng will definitely welcome you."
As he spoke, Gu Shijin glanced at Concubine Wen from head to toe and said, "After all, you are all nieces, but one is the niece of the Empress Dowager, one is the niece of the Concubine Dowager, one is a Zhaoyi, and one can only be a Concubine."
"You..." Wenpin was furious. This had always been a knot in her heart, and now Gu Shijin had spoken it out in front of so many people.
Xing Zhu, who was standing behind Gu Shijin, took a step forward, bowed and said, "My Lady Wenpin, please respect your status."
Xing Zhu's attitude was neither humble nor arrogant, and a hint of satisfaction flashed in Gu Shijin's eyes.
Shupin, who was standing next to her, said, "Your Highness, what Sister Wenpin said is also true. Why should you be angry?"
Concubine Wen took a deep breath, suppressed her anger, and said, "I was wrong, but I heard that the emperor favored Concubine Feng last night. I wonder if the emperor's favor to Concubine Noble will continue to be the same as before."
"Please don't worry about my affairs, Concubine Wen. Even if I have fallen out of favor, at least I have had it before. And you, Concubine Wen..." Gu Shijin did not finish his words, but his meaning was self-evident.
"Besides, I still have two children. No matter what, I will never live the same life as you, Concubine Wen." Gu Shijin's eyes swept over the third and fourth princes who were playing in the distance, and a flash of tenderness appeared in his eyes.
"There is no need for the Imperial Concubine to be so angry. I only said a few truths. If you don't know, you might think that the Imperial Concubine is angry with the Emperor." Wenpin said.
"Princess Wen, this palace..."
"presumptuous!"
Lu Junze was planning to go to Chenhua Palace, but he heard the noise of two children playing from a distance. He guessed that Gu Shijin was taking the two children out to play, so he came over.
Who knew I would see such a scene when I came here.
"Your Highness." Wenpin and the other two were startled when they heard Lu Junze's voice and quickly knelt down.
"Your Majesty." Gu Shijin bowed.
"My beloved concubine, please don't be polite." Lu Junze stepped forward and took Gu Shijin's hand, and straightened her cloak, and asked, "Are you cold?"
Gu Shijin smiled slightly, shook her head, and said, "Your Majesty, I am not cold."
"This cloak looks a bit old. I have two pieces of white fox fur in my private storehouse. I'll ask the Ministry of Internal Affairs to make a cloak out of it and send it to you later." Lu Junze touched Gu Shijin's face and said.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Gu Shijin said. Good things should not be rejected for nothing, and Lu Junze was obviously here to support him, so she would not be stupid enough to refuse.
"As long as you like it." Lu Junze looked at Gu Shijin tenderly, completely ignoring the three people kneeling on the ground.
Gu Shijin talked with Lu Junze for a while before saying, "Your Majesty, the sisters are still kneeling."
It was cold today, and the ground in the imperial garden was a little uneven. The three people knelt for a while and were obviously unable to continue. It was so cold that Gu Shijin saw sweat on Concubine Yao's face.
Gu Shijin would not sympathize with these three people. If these three people hadn't been so shameless as to provoke her, Gu Shijin would not have been in the mood to pay attention to them.
Lu Junze looked down at the three people kneeling and whispered, “Get up.”
"Thank you, Your Majesty." The three people stood up with the help of the palace maids.
Gu Shijin looked at her and shook his head, his body was too weak. Look at the palace maids, they also knelt for so long but were fine, they stood steadily, it was obvious that they knelt quite often.
Thinking of this, Gu Shijin had to be thankful that he was dressed as a master instead of a servant, otherwise he would be in trouble.
"What are you three doing here?" Lu Junze looked at the three of them and asked.
Under Lu Junze's eyes, the three of them didn't dare to make any small moves. Finally, Wenpin said, "Your Majesty, a few of us came out for a walk and ran into Concubine Chen, so we chatted with her."
"Really?" Lu Junze's voice was very cold. Most people would definitely not be able to stand it. "That's not what I heard just now."
"Your Majesty, I..." Concubine Shu wanted to explain herself but was interrupted by Lu Junze.
"Okay, I have ears and can hear what you are saying. I don't need you to explain it to me."
"Su Deyuan went to convey the imperial edict. Concubine Wen, Concubine Yao and Concubine Shu were demoted to noble ladies for committing crimes against their superiors. Each of them was ordered to copy the Buddhist scriptures fifty times." Lu Junze said.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
"Also, the Concubine Dowager has been recuperating in the Empress Dowager's Cining Palace recently. If you have nothing to do, please don't bother the Concubine Dowager. Just stay in the palace and copy Buddhist scriptures."
Concubine Wen, oh, now it's Noble Lady Wen, Noble Lady Wen and the other two were shocked, their positions were not high to begin with, and now they were demoted, isn't this going to cost them their lives?
"Your Majesty, I, your concubine..." The words that Wen Guiren was about to say were blocked by Su Deyuan, "My three young ladies, please go back."
Although the emperor did not explicitly ban them from walking, asking them to copy Buddhist scriptures was an ipso facto ban.
Su Deyuan did not have a good attitude towards those who could not see the situation clearly. The status of Concubine Chen in the emperor's heart could not be influenced by Feng Zhaoyi.
It is not certain how long Concubine Feng can serve as Concubine Zhaoyi, but Concubine Chen may be able to continue to move up.
Seeing that Lu Junze no longer paid attention to them, Wenpin and the other two decided not to waste time here. They shook the handkerchiefs in their hands and left.
But before leaving, she glared at Gu Shijin several times. They thought that Gu Shijin must have done it on purpose. Gu Shijin felt speechless when she felt the gaze from behind her. She really didn't know that Lu Junze would come at this time. Didn't the emperor say that he would go to Yonghe Palace to accompany Feng Zhaoyi?
"Why is the emperor here now?" Gu Shijin asked in a low voice, looking at Lu Junze beside him, and his tone was not particularly good.
Lu Junze was not angry at all. Instead, he lowered his head and nodded Gu Shijin's nose, smiled and said, "Jin'er is angry?"
"What is the emperor talking about? How can I be angry with you?" Gu Shijin turned her head away from Lu Junze. There were so many people around, and Gu Shijin still felt a little embarrassed.
Lu Junze patted Gu Shijin's back and smoothed her hair, while whispering in Gu Shijin's ear, "I'll explain it to Jin'er when we get back to Chenhua Palace."
It has to be said that Lu Junze's attitude really benefited Gu Shijin, and the irritability he felt in the morning was much better now.
Gu Shijin didn't need Lu Junze to favor her alone, but she needed to make sure that Lu Junze still cared about her, so that she could have a better grasp of the scale of things.
Not to mention that she now has two children to consider, she absolutely cannot fall out of favor.
