The visitor was wearing a blue dress, and his dignified face looked very serious, even a little stern, because of his tightly pursed lips.
She is not old, Shen Dingzhu looked at her, she is about the same age as herself.
But I saw this woman wearing a hairpin and looking like a palace concubine.
Feng Jing straightened up and frowned slightly: "Why are you here?"
The woman stepped in, her meticulously combed temples still covered with rain and dewdrops from the time she came in, but her expression looked particularly stiff.
Shen Dingzhu felt that her stern gaze fell on him, and then he looked at Feng Jing and gave a salute.
"The emperor is indulged in love affairs every day, and has been neglectful in government affairs, which has made several old ministers dissatisfied. I have been ordered by the emperor to assist in managing the Sixth Palace, so I naturally have to take on the responsibility of admonition. Your Majesty, please accompany me back to the palace. !”
Feng Jing's eyes suddenly turned cold: "That's ridiculous! Tutor and the others are looking for you again? I've been distracted these past few days. Although the government affairs have been handled a little slowly, I haven't delayed anything important. You go back and I'll see you another day. Go back to the palace and settle accounts with them again!"
Shen Dingzhu finally understood and guessed the woman's identity.
It must be Concubine Lan whom the maids mentioned before.
There were many beauties in Feng Jing's harem, most of whom were daughters of courtiers, and their power was complex. However, he never established a queen, and left the power of the harem to Concubine Lan, who had no family background.
It can be inferred from this that his feelings for Concubine Lan must be different. Moreover, Concubine Lan's words of admonishment just now, and Feng Jing's temper, did not make him angry.
Concubine Lan's status is evident.
Shen Dingzhu suddenly understood that no wonder Concubine Lan looked at her like she was carrying a knife when she just came in.
She must have thought that it was Shen Dingzhu who seduced Feng Jing and made him obsessed with beauty and unwilling to return to the palace.
At this moment, Concubine Lan suddenly lifted her skirt and knelt down towards Feng Jing.
Feng Jing frowned coldly: "What are you doing? Get up!"
Concubine Lan raised her hands high in the middle of her eyebrows, kowtowed deeply, and said sincerely: "Your Majesty, your achievements today are hard-won. Others can let the Emperor indulge in his lust, but I have witnessed the Emperor's hard work with my own eyes, and I must not sit back and watch. reason."
"Presumptuous!" Feng Jing was angry. There were some things he couldn't say in front of Shen Dingzhu. He was even more angry at Concubine Lan's unwillingness to adapt.
Seeing this, Shen Dingzhu stood up quickly and said, "I'll ask Mu Xia to serve tea."
She wanted to take the opportunity to leave, but unexpectedly, Feng Jing's paranoia and stubbornness came from nowhere. He directly pressed Shen Dingzhu's shoulders with his big palm and pushed her back to sit in the chair.
"You don't have to go anywhere." After Feng Jing said this, Concubine Lan raised her head and her face turned pale for a moment.
When she looked at Shen Dingzhu again, her eyes looked at her sharply.
It seems that Shen Dingzhu is regarded as a vixen who brings disaster to the country and the people.
This is really embarrassing.
Shen Dingzhu blinked his beautiful eyes at a loss, and Concubine Lan said in a sad voice: "Your Majesty, whether you are angry today or resentful of my concubine, when I left the palace, I had already considered it, for the sake of the court and even the country. Sheji, I have to persuade you to go back this time no matter what."
After saying that, she kowtowed deeply: "If you don't agree, I can only kneel here and never stand up again!"
"You——!" Feng Jing pointed at her, his phoenix eyes turning a cold red, "Ruoqing, I don't want to embarrass you, I will give you the greatest understanding in everything, why can't you understand me? I didn't need you when I was young. I am protecting the child, I have my own thoughts on when to return to the palace!"
Lan Fei trembled, and when she raised her head again, her eyes were filled with tears.
Suddenly, she took out a pair of scissors from her sleeves, and Feng Jing subconsciously stretched out his arms to block Shen Dingzhu behind him.
"What do you want to do?"
Looking at his actions, Concubine Lan felt extremely sad, as if a layer of snow had fallen.
She choked with sobs but said firmly: "If the emperor doesn't leave, I can only break my will, and then crash to death in this palace. It is not a pity for me to die, but if I can persuade the emperor to know his way back, I will die." should!"
After saying that, Concubine Lan pulled out a strand of her hair and was about to cut it off.
"Stop!" Feng Jing stepped forward in three steps and snatched away her scissors. Unexpectedly, during the struggle, Concubine Lan made a gash on her neck.
Blood beads suddenly appeared on the white neck, which was shocking.
"Ruo Qing! Why are you doing this?" Feng Jing was anxious and angry, but he supported Concubine Lan, but he couldn't bear to blame her.
Concubine Lan shed tears: "Your Majesty, please go back to the palace with me. The ministers must have an explanation. This is a critical moment for you. You..."
Considering that there was an outsider like Shen Dingzhu in the room, Concubine Lan did not finish her words.
Feng Jing stood up with a complicated expression. He turned back and looked at Shen Dingzhu.
The look in his eyes seemed like he was ready to take Shen Dingzhu back with him.
Shen Dingzhu noticed something and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, please go back with Concubine Lan first. The court affairs are important."
Of course she couldn't leave, she had to stay and disrupt the regent's plan to give away the secret recipe for gunpowder.
Feng Jing hesitated to speak, but at this moment Concubine Lan tugged on Feng Jing's sleeve, her pale face was weeping, and the blood on her neck was shocking.
Finally, Feng Jing said to Shen Dingzhu in a low voice, "I'll come see you another day."
After saying that, he pulled Concubine Lan to stand up and helped her leave.
After they left, Mu Xia quickly came in and wiped the dripping blood on the floor.
"Miss, it's really bad. The emperor loves Concubine Lan the most, and he listens to her even more. If I leave, I'm afraid I won't come back."
Shen Dingzhu's beautiful eyes were dark and calm. She turned her slim waist and sat back at the table, continuing to copy her scriptures.
She asked casually: "The emperor seems to have a bad temper, why is he so lenient to Concubine Lan alone? They have known each other since childhood?"
Mu Xia: "My lady guessed it right. Concubine Lan used to be the eldest maid beside the emperor. When the emperor was very young, she was not very big. The two of them depended on each other. The slaves also heard that Concubine Lan was once the emperor's maid. I have endured a lot of hardships, even been beaten and taken poison for him!"
No wonder Concubine Lan's status was different. As a puppet emperor in his childhood, Feng Jing was afraid that life would be extremely difficult. Concubine Lan's constant companionship was the only warmth Feng Jing could rely on at that time.
Shen Dingzhu expressed his understanding.
Concubine Lan was able to give advice only for Feng Jing's good. Although Concubine Lan didn't know, Shen Dingzhu did not seduce Feng Jing, and the two had never had such a relationship.
After Feng Jing left, Shen Dingzhu did not relax her vigilance and waited for the regent to meet her confidants and others. However, what she didn't expect was that on the third day after Feng Jing left, someone came to the palace again.
The regent was not in the mansion, so the housekeeper came directly to Jianjia Courtyard to announce that a distinguished person had arrived in the palace and asked Shen Dingzhu to go to the front hall to meet him immediately.
Shen Dingzhu originally thought that it would be the person arranged by Feng Jing.
Unexpectedly, when she went to the front hall, she saw Concubine Lan sitting firmly in the imperial chair, holding a cup of tea, and beside her stood Huang Yunmeng with a pleasant smile on his face.
Shen Dingzhu frowned subconsciously, having a bad premonition.
Concubine Lan's assessment was full of the confidence and power of a superior person.
In her eyes, Ah Zhu was truly a rare beauty. It would not be an exaggeration to say that she was rare in the world.
She has slender shoulders and thin waist, plump and delicate peach breasts, her whole body is as pink as water, and her pretty and bright face is like a new blooming pistil, or like the dew in the early morning. Every frown and every smile is like... It is as vivid and beautiful as what comes out of the painting.
It is said that she has given birth to a child, but from her figure, she can only see the mature charm.
With such a look, one in a million, and all the women in the harem put together, can't compare to her frowning and worried glance, which is simply charming.
No wonder Feng Jing lingers. Facing such a beauty, I'm afraid it's not a legend if the king doesn't go to court early.
Thinking of this, Concubine Lan, who always considered herself to be impartial, inevitably felt a bit sour in her heart.
She put down the teacup and spoke in a particularly stern tone: "I heard from Miss Huang that you lived in Dajin before and had a husband and children?"
Shen Dingzhu glanced at Huang Yunmeng secretly. Although the other party tried his best to hide it, his eyes were still proud of watching a good show.
Then, Shen Dingzhu felt relieved, lowered his head slightly and said: "A'zhu unfortunately encountered an accident, and he doesn't remember the past very clearly, but his adoptive father did say so. It's a pity that the adoptive father said, A'zhu Zhu is now alone."
With a "bang" sound, Concubine Lan slammed the table: "How dare you serve the Holy Master even if you are unclean? Your Majesty has a compassionate heart. You should remind him to refuse. I didn't expect to be so shameless and seduced the Emperor. I won’t return to the palace either.”
After saying that, she immediately shouted: "Come here! Give me a slap on her face. You won't stop until I say stop!"
