There are two more beauties in the house who were personally gifted by the emperor, which somewhat increases everyone's sense of crisis.
It is said that Ji Mingzhu has made things difficult for them a few times.
Lu Qing heard this and continued to do his own thing without saying a word.
Ning Huayue was punished to copy Buddhist scriptures, but Yan Fuguang did not restrain her, so it was still necessary to greet her every day.
Lu Qing is in confinement, and due to her poor health, she has not come to pay her respects for more than a month.
Today she dressed up specially and looked rosy as she prepared to go to Yihongyuan.
On the way, he met the enthusiastic Qu Donger, and the two started walking together.
"Are you feeling better?" Qu Dong'er was afraid that talking about the child would make Lu Qing sad, so he deliberately said in a funny way, "I haven't seen you for a long time, so I miss you."
Lu Qing had nothing to do with such a familiar person. With a smile on his eyes and eyebrows, he said in a good voice, "I'm okay. Thank you for thinking of me."
Qu Dong'er sympathized with Lu Qing's experience and lamented behind his back for a long time.
Fortunately, Lu Qing appeared in front of her and said, "Thank you, I just thought about it and I didn't really do anything for you."
Qu Dong'er herself was just trying to survive in the cracks in the backyard. Seriously, she and Lu Qing had similar backgrounds. They had no backing and could only rely on themselves to do anything.
"Hey, let's not talk about this anymore. Did you know that our palace has two new concubines? They are indeed good-looking."
"I met him two days ago."
Not only is he good-looking, but he also seems to have a calm personality. It seems that Emperor Xihe carefully selected him before giving it to Yan Fuguang.
Qu Donger looked at Lu Qing cautiously and continued to ask: "Do you know where the princess has arranged for them to live?"
Lu Qing shook his head.
Qu Donger smiled, a little regretful that he had said so many words.
However, Lu Qing became interested and asked: "If you ask this, it means you don't live in the concubine's courtyard. Where do they live?"
"Uh..." Qu Dong'er said vaguely, "Qi, Qiyun Pavilion..."
"Oh, I live in Qiyun Pavilion." Lu Qing repeated subconsciously.
Qu Dong'er was a little sorry. She was secretly annoyed that her mouth was so insistent on opening and lifting certain pots.
She quickly made up for it: "But after living here for so long, Your Majesty has never set foot in it once. Your Majesty still loves you the most!"
Lu Qing smiled helplessly: "Don't be so nervous. Where does it matter to me where they live?"
Ning Huayue's special arrangement may have the same idea as Qu Donger's, and she wanted to disgust her.
But Lu Qing really doesn't care.
It's just a place to live, it means nothing.
Slowly and leisurely, he arrived outside Yihong Courtyard. When he was about to step in, Qu Dong'er suddenly grabbed Lu Qing's arm. His body stiffened unconsciously and his breathing became disordered.
"What's wrong?" Lu Qing was confused.
"I-I'm fine...let's go..."
After saying that, Qu Donger not only did not let go, but became even tighter.
In the flash of lightning, Lu Qing seemed to know what Qu Donger was afraid of.
——Lan Xin’s body was buried in the yard.
"Don't be afraid, it's broad daylight." She patted the back of Qu Dong'er's hand.
Qu Dong'er's voice trembled and he said as he walked: "That wintersweet tree is eerie..."
Lu Qing took a special look around and found that there was indeed a wintersweet tree in the northwest corner.
Lan Xin was buried underneath, but she was not afraid. The one who should be afraid most was Ning Huayue.
Long time no see, Ning Huayue has gone through many vicissitudes.
Even if the cheeks are carefully painted with powder, the eyes cannot be modified.
Lu Qing was wearing her favorite green dress, which was fresh, refined, bright and elegant. She stepped forward slowly and respectfully said, "I would like to say hello to the princess."
Ning Huayue's reaction was very interesting. She stared straight at Lu Qing, with many complicated emotions welling up in her heart. She wished she could transform into a sharp sword, plunge straight into Lu Qing's chest, and carve out her heart.
Seeing that she was still alive, Ning Huayue felt chest tight and short of breath.
There was silence in the room, and everyone's eyes were focused on Lu Qing and Ning Huayue.
Lu Qing lowered her eyes lightly, maintained her posture of curtsying, and calmly waited for Ning Huayue to cry out.
For a long time, Ning Huayue turned away her eyes unwillingly and disgustedly, "Get up."
She didn't even want to say a single extra word, fearing that if she couldn't help it, Lu Qing would use the topic again.
Ji Mingzhu's eyes rolled around, she flicked her handkerchief, and she leaned lazily on the armrest, "It seems that the princess is still angry at Concubine Wei, but what did Concubine Wei do wrong? The children are gone. , only one maid died..."
"That's enough!" Ning Huayue couldn't help but recall how Lan Xin didn't have a good piece of meat on her body. She subconsciously looked out the door, her back feeling cold, "Lan Xin also paid the price, and this matter is over. If anyone brings it up for discussion again, don’t blame me for being rude!”
Ji Mingzhu curled her lips in disdain and was not polite. She really wanted to ask, have you finished copying the Buddhist scriptures?
Before Lu Qing could sit down, she stood in front of the chair, her eyelashes drooping, her tone full of sadness: "The princess is right, the past is over, and I am still fine, which can be considered a blessing in misfortune. "
Chen Qingzi answered softly: "As long as you are fine, there is still a chance for everything else. Sit down quickly. We haven't seen you for a long time. You happen to know the two new sisters."
Fang Ya and Xu Rou smiled kindly at Lu Qing, and then replied to Chen Qingzi: "I have already met Concubine Wei."
Ji Mingzhu hadn't calmed down for a while before she got excited again: "Concubine Wei, I heard there is no one? They live in Qiyun Pavilion! You three are really destined!"
Fang Ya and Xu Rou immediately lowered their heads nervously, as if they were afraid of facing Lu Qing.
Lu Mei didn't mind at all, but was happy to see the result: "I have lived in Qiyun Pavilion before, and the environment is very good. The princess is always considerate, and the two sisters can accompany each other living there, and it is not crowded. It is even better. It’s just an arrangement.”
Fang Ya and Xu Rou burst into tears of gratitude, and they kept saying kind words one after another.
As the princess with the highest status, Ning Huayue was inconspicuous and no one cared about her.
After the greetings were over, Fang Ya and Xu Rou came to Lu Qing warmly, calling each other sister and sister, and they were extremely intimate.
"I have long heard that Sister Wei has a good temper and is liked by the prince. Now it seems that it is indeed the case. We all like sister. We can't wait to talk to you every day..."
Lu Qing kept smiling, but she didn't respond much. After standing for a while, she used Lan Ge'er as an excuse to leave first.
Fang Ya looked at her back and said with envy: "Have you seen it? Of the four concubines, Concubine Wei is the least senior, but she is the most beautiful and favored."
The other three concubines did not have much presence, and they were cautious when facing the two concubines, but she was generous, neither humble nor overbearing, and she had long lost the humbleness and shabbyness of a maid.
Xu Rou nodded and commented: "You still have to have children by your side."
"This is why mother is more valuable than son."
