In order to ensure that Shen Meizhuang was safe and sound, after agreeing to Zhen Huan's request, An Lingrong stayed with Shen Meizhuang in Xianfu Palace for a whole day.

At the same time, because they stayed up late at night, both of them looked listless the next day.

This resulted in Concubine Jing being frightened when she came to visit them!

"You, what happened to you?"

Jingpin looked at An Lingrong and Shen Meizhuang, both of whom had dark circles under their eyes, and thought something serious had happened. She didn't even care about her manners at this moment, but rushed to them in two steps and asked anxiously, "Two sisters, what happened to you?"

"what?"

When asked this question suddenly by Concubine Jing, An Lingrong and Shen Meizhuang didn't react at first.

However, when they looked at each other, they noticed the "dark circles" under each other's eyes, and they all laughed at the same time.

Just looking at Jingpin's reaction at the time, they did not realize that Jingpin's shock came from their bodies, and they thought something big had happened outside.

"It seems like you didn't get a good night's rest last night, right?"

After realizing it was a false alarm, Jingpin sat down as they greeted her.

Immediately afterwards, Concubine Jing asked Shen Meizhuang with concern.

"It's okay. Although... there was a lot of trouble, but in the end, I was given 'fairness'."

Shen Meizhuang knew that Jingpin asked about their situation purely out of concern for her.

However, after Shen Meizhuang had a long and heart-to-heart talk with An Lingrong last night, she felt relieved all of a sudden.

Since the emperor still considers Hua Fei's face for the time being and is unwilling to punish her, there is no need for me to be too sad.

After all, things have come to this point, and if you still hold on to it, not only will it be embarrassing, but it will also do you no good.

"I hope you can think this way, sister."

Of course, Jingpin knew that it would not be easy for Shen Meizhuang to let go of it. When she heard Shen Meizhuang's answer, a hint of emotion flashed in her eyes, and then she sighed.

"My lady, Eunuch Su is here!"

At this moment, a palace maid suddenly came in and reported to Concubine Jing that Su Peisheng had arrived.

"Why is he coming to Xianfu Palace at this time?"

Upon hearing this, Concubine Jing was stunned for a moment, and then she reacted all of a sudden and subconsciously glanced at Shen Meizhuang. She saw that Shen Meizhuang had a calm expression, as if she had no thoughts at all about the news.

"Forget it, please wait in the main hall first, Eunuch Su!"

Jingpin didn't know what instructions Yongzheng had for Su Peisheng to be brought to her and others, but she thought that the other party's arrival should be closely related to what happened last night.

Considering that Su Peisheng was the emperor's chief eunuch after all, Jingpin did not dare to neglect him too much, so she sent the little palace maid away and asked her to take good care of Su Peisheng on her behalf.

Then, Concubine Jing said a few more words to Shen Meiyu and then left.

"Sister, it looks like the 'sweet dates' are coming."

As soon as Concubine Jing left, An Lingrong said this to Shen Meiyu with a smile.

"Yes, using both kindness and severity is the way to reward and punish!"

When Shen Meizhuang heard this, she also nodded to An Lingrong.

"Sister, do you want to go and have a look?"

An Lingrong knew that Jingpin should have guessed that Su Peisheng's arrival was closely related to Shen Meiyu.

However, Shen Meizhuang seemed to still be bothered by something, and Jingpin was originally a "kind person", so at this time, she certainly didn't feel comfortable to force Shen Meizhuang.

But if Su Peisheng came with Yongzheng's "reward" for Shen Meizhuang, then, as the person involved, Shen Meizhuang would have to come forward to thank the emperor in the end.

That's why An Lingrong asked this question.

"Go!"

Shen Meizhuang didn't have too many concerns about this.

She had not shown any reluctance to see anyone just now, however, Jingpin did not mention it, and Shen Meizhuang was too lazy to say it herself.

Now that An Lingrong had said so, she thought it would be a good idea to go and take a look.

"My lords, watch your step!"

Caiyue saw that Shen Meizhuang had indeed regained some of her "spirit" under An Lingrong's comfort, and she took the words of this noble lady An as her golden rule.

At this time, seeing that they were about to move forward, he quickly cleared the way ahead.

……

"Empress Jingpin, this is the emperor's grace to the noble lady. Although you have received the imperial decree on her behalf, you still have to ask her to come out!"

In the main hall of Xianfu Palace, Su Peisheng read out the imperial edict issued by Yongzheng to Concubine Jing. All those eloquent words could be summed up in one sentence, which was that he knew that Shen Meiyu had suffered a lot of injustice in this incident.

Therefore, the emperor waved his hand and not only gave a lot of rewards, but also specially gave Shen Meizhuang a title to show his consolation and favor.

When Jingpin heard the news, she was surprised and happy.

As the master of the palace where Shen Meizhuang is located, whether Shen Meizhuang is favored or not is naturally closely related to Jingpin.

Therefore, like last night, when Fuling came out to "accuse" Shen Meiyu of faking her pregnancy, Jingpin was almost frightened to death!

Even though she knew that Shen Meizhuang was wrongly accused, she was not "cleared of all charges" in the end, which made Jingpin feel uneasy.

When she saw Shen Meizhuang today, Concubine Jing keenly noticed that Concubine Shen's mentality had changed greatly from before.

It was as if she had given up on the emperor, and even her future in the palace was no longer cared about!

This is not a good thing...

Jingpin wanted to persuade Shen Meizhuang at that time that, if not for anything else, she should at least think well of the child in her belly.

If a concubine in the harem does not have the favor of the emperor, her future days will not only be like a pool of stagnant water, with no hope at all, but even protecting herself and the people she cares about will become an extremely difficult luxury!

It’s a pity that Shen Meizhuang was too indifferent at that time.

Jingpin felt that this might be the result of the great stimulation she had suffered. She did not dare to say anything for a moment and could only come alone to face Su Peisheng.

Everything was fine at the beginning, but when Su Peisheng suggested that Shen Meizhuang come in person to express her gratitude, Jingpin frowned and looked embarrassed.

"Eunuch Su, logically speaking, this is indeed the case, but you also know what happened last night. Concubine Hui did not sleep all night!"

Concubine Jing came up with a bunch of excuses, trying to get Shen Meizhuang to avoid coming over to express her gratitude.

"My lady, of course I know about this, but if you don't come, if the news gets out, we won't be able to avoid this trouble!"

Su Peisheng gave a bitter smile and was about to speak again when a soft voice suddenly came from the side.
