The queen has four sons and six daughters, and she can call the wind and rain

Chapter 5: The Battle between the Noble and Chang Zai

When Concubine Sun heard that Qi Yejing went to Furong Pavilion last night and had dinner at the same table with Yun Zhining, and asked Yun Zhining to make some porridge and side dishes for him the next morning, she got up early, watched the palace servants make some sweet and delicious porridge and side dishes, and rushed to the imperial study before Qi Yejing left. She was lucky because Qi Yejing came back just as she entered, and she hurriedly brought people to greet him.

Yun Zhining pinched her arm, and a severe pain came over her. Her eyes instantly turned red. She glanced at Qi Yejing, bit her lip, and showed a hint of sadness. After hesitating for a while, seeing that Qi Yejing didn't notice her, she turned around and left with the lunch box.

Just as she was about to leave this sad place, a faint male voice came from behind her.

"Since you are here, why don't you come over? Are you waiting for me to come and invite you personally?"

Yun Zhining quickly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, but she didn't know if her way of wiping tears was wrong, or if she couldn't hide her inner sadness. The more she wiped, the more tears she shed. Hearing Qi Yejing's impatient shout from behind her, she quickly turned around and trotted over, whispering in a low voice.

"I pay my respects to His Majesty. May His Majesty be blessed with good health. I greet Lady Sun."

"Yun Changzai is very polite."

Concubine Sun gave her a half-bow in return, turned her head to look at Qi Yejing, and laughed with her hands covering her mouth.

"I have heard that Yun Changzai is extremely beautiful, but I have never had the chance to see her. Today, I have a rare opportunity to meet her, but she lowered her head and refused to let me see her. Is she afraid that I will be jealous of her beauty and want to trade with her?"

"Did you hear that? Lady Sun wants to see what you look like, so just look up and let her take a look."

"Yes."

Yun Zhining slowly raised her head, and a pair of tearful eyes appeared in front of Concubine Sun.

Concubine Sun subconsciously clenched her handkerchief, but the smile on her face grew instead of diminishing.

"When I was a child, I learned an article. The article mentioned that the protagonist had two eyebrows that seemed to be frowning but not frowning, a pair of eyes that seemed to be crying but not crying, a look that showed sorrow in both cheeks, a delicate body that was sick, tears in the eyes, and a slight breath. She was as quiet as a delicate flower reflecting in the water, and moved like a weak willow in the wind. She was more intelligent than Bi Gan, and her illness was three times worse than Xi Shi's."

"In the past, I didn't know how charming the beauty of Xi Shi was with her eyes full of dew. Now I finally see her and she is really stunning. No wonder Earl Yuanchang dared to send Yun Changzai to the palace to please the emperor. The emperor forgot about me as soon as he saw her."

Wow, I didn't expect that although Concubine Sun is of a low rank, she is quite thoughtful. No wonder she was able to get close to Yun Fulan in her previous life. She is second only to the first lady in the harem and above everyone else. She is really not easy to deal with!

But Yun Zhining is no longer a weakling.

She took a deep breath, and the tears in her eyes disappeared instantly, leaving only a few, dotted in the bottom of her eyes, forming starlight, so as to attract the person she wanted to attract.

Yun Zhining smiled.

"How can I compare to the beauty of Lady Sun, who is as pretty as a flower? Lady Sun, please don't look down on me, or the Emperor will laugh at me."

"Being overly modest is a sign of arrogance, Yun Changzai, this is not good."

"What Lady Sun taught me is that I am not Lady Sun, and I am not a legitimate daughter. I can be free and say whatever I want and do whatever I want."

"If this situation had only lasted for a while, I wouldn't be like this, but it has been more than ten years since I was born. I have always been cautious and careful. Even after entering the palace, I can't change in a short time, so please bear with me, Lady Sun."

This was the first time that Concubine Sun was forced into this situation by a concubine of lower rank than herself, and she became more and more wary of the person in front of her.

However, she came here today to compete for the emperor's favor, so there was no need to dwell on her. She would wait until her position was further promoted to the fourth rank, when she could pay her respects to the empress every day and her child would not be snatched away by others even after she gave birth. Then she would deal with this woman.

Of course, it would be best if Yun Zhining failed the test in the deep palace and was eliminated early.

With this thought, the smile on her face widened a little.

"I see. I've been thinking too much."

"Mrs. Sun is in a serious condition. You just wanted to remind me. You didn't have any bad intentions. I naturally won't blame you."

"That's good."

"I think Yun Changzai is not feeling well. He just stood outside for a long time. He must be tired. Let's go back and rest first."

Don't compete with me for the emperor.

Concubine Sun didn't finish her words, but Yun Zhining could still clearly understand the implication.

If Qi Yejing had not stopped her and let her leave, she would not have stayed, but since the emperor had just spoken, she naturally would not refuse the emperor's face.

After all, no matter how higher Concubine Sun's position is than hers, Daye still belongs to Qi Yejing. She only needs to please Qi Yejing. As for other people, she doesn't need to care too much.

So she ignored Concubine Sun, but turned to look at Qi Yejing beside her and gently shook the food box in her hand.

"Your Majesty, are you hungry? Would you like to eat something?"

"Okay, come in."

Seeing that Qi Yejing did not refuse her courtesy because of Yun Zhining's presence, Concubine Sun hurriedly followed him, went in first, took out all the breakfast in the food box, filled the table with it, and looked at Yun Zhining with a little pride.

I have already filled the table, I want to see where else you can put it.

Yun Zhining did not conflict with her. Instead, she turned around and found a table at random, and took out all the porridge and side dishes she had made.

It's strange. Obviously, the rice and water were purchased uniformly by the palace, but the porridge made by Yun Zhining was more fragrant than the porridge cooked by Sun Guiren. It was not the kind of sweet fragrance that makes people want to vomit, but a light and refreshing fragrance. After taking a sip, all the troubles were thrown away. If you tasted it, you would definitely feel like you were floating in the sky.

Qi Yejing was the emperor, so he naturally would not treat himself harshly and made a decision immediately.

"Dong Ling, Concubine Sun has been busy all morning and made such a delicious breakfast. Why don't you take it down and eat it quickly? If it gets cold, you will let Concubine Sun down."

"Lady Sun, you wouldn't mind if I gave the breakfast you made to Dong Ling, right?"

Concubine Sun was so angry that she almost vomited blood, but she still had to keep a smile on her face and did not dare to show the slightest dissatisfaction.

"Your Majesty, you are joking. Eunuch Dongling has served Your Majesty for so many years. He has worked hard for Your Majesty and has made great contributions. I am very grateful. Not to mention just eating the breakfast I made for Your Majesty, even if he made some requests, I would not refuse."

Qi Yejing nodded with satisfaction.

"I know that my beloved concubine is considerate and has lived up to my love for you."

"Dongli, what are you still standing there for? Hurry up and take the food over and eat."

"I remember that the South China Sea paid tribute of four strings of South China pearls last month. One string was given to Empress Dowager Xiaoyan, one string was given to Empress Dowager Xiaoci, and one string was given to the Queen. There should be one string left."

"In reply to the Emperor, there is indeed one string of South China pearls left."

"In that case, let's give it to Lady Sun as a reward. It will not be a waste of her kindness."

"This slave takes the order."

Concubine Sun didn't expect that things would turn out so well. Although the breakfast she made was eaten by someone else, she was rewarded by the emperor. Yun Zhining saw that she was praised by the emperor, but in the end she got nothing. She would definitely be furious.

Yun Zhining glanced at the delighted Concubine Sun and sneered inwardly.

That string of South Pearls was not a good thing. Countless people had fallen into its trap in previous lives. Even if Qi Yejing wanted to give it to her as a reward, she would not take it.

I really don't know what someone is so proud of.

The happier she laughs now, the harder she will cry when she knows the truth.

She couldn't wait to see Concubine Sun's regretful look.

It must be very exciting.
