Qiao Jingyu picked up the water cup on one side and drank a mouthful, asking in a calm tone, "I don't know what brought my sister here this time."

  She could vaguely guess that she was there for the morning affair, otherwise with her temperament, she would not have come to her Zonghua Palace. After all, it had been more than a year since she entered the palace and she had never set foot in her Zonghua Palace.

  Su Jing smiled faintly "Little sister knows that big sister is a clever person, and people who are smart don't speak in riddles. Little sister also doesn't want to talk about those unnecessary things with big sister."

  "Just now, my sister's palace maid and my sister were laughing and talking about the new rumors that came out in the palace today. My sister just smiled and didn't take it to heart at the time, but afterwards, it was beyond her expectations. My sister really couldn't stand it, so she had to come find me to talk about it."

  Before she could respond, Su Jing continued, "Sister also knows that you must be unhappy, but I still hope that you won't be deceived and will see the true nature of this person. Not everyone has an evil heart, but it's necessary to be cautious. Sister, is that right or not?"

  The words were spoken so directly and yet so obscurely that they could be said to be extremely frank. Qiao Jingyu naturally heard the deep meaning hidden within them.

  She had actually heard the rumor for the first time and thought it was just like what Su Jingyan said, but after hearing Su Jingyan's words, she knew that Su Jingyan didn't know her secret. She wouldn't be foolish enough to say it out loud, so as she said, being cautious was always necessary.

  She doesn't want to be her enemy doesn't mean she doesn't want to be her enemy

  "The palace also knows this principle, but this person... Don't worry, sister. Although the palace doesn't know who it is, I won't randomly frame someone, and even more so, I won't push the blame onto my sister."

  Although there was no conclusive evidence that Shu Guifei had helped her before, she believed that her conjecture would not be wrong for more than a year since she entered the palace.

  Shu Gui Fei may not be a good person but she is not bad either.

  "My sister must know my character, and I hope you can also trust me. I have always been a person who knows how to repay kindness. You can rest assured, sister." Su Jing said with a firm tone and sincere eyes.

  "My sister is not a person who likes to sit and wait for death, nor is she someone who can be bullied by others. I don't bother others if they don't bother me. But if someone dares to bully my sister, no matter what, she won't swallow this insult."

  If someone with a keen ear heard this sentence, it would naturally cause another stir. However, saying it out loud at this time also subtly showed her sincerity.

  "Don't worry, sister has a sense of justice too. Time will tell who's good and who's bad. Sister also feels uncomfortable seeing you suffer from this matter. If possible, sister will punish that person to make you feel better."

  Qiao Jingyu understood the meaning behind her words, which is why she was willing to speak clearly with her. Although she knew that she might have misunderstood her, and it might not make a big difference to her, she didn't mind.

  But whether one listens or not is one thing, and whether one speaks or not is another matter altogether.

  Su Jing nodded "Sister has this heart, younger sister is very happy. If possible, in the future, I will definitely come to disturb Sister often. I hope Sister won't mind that younger sister disturbed Sister's peace."

  Qiao Jingxuan's words were also heard clearly by Su Jingyue, who was delighted to respond to her. After all, it didn't have much of an impact on herself.

  This is also a good intention, Qiao Jingyu has always been looking forward to being able to repay her kindness in the future. Now that she has extended an olive branch, Qiao Jingyu also cannot refuse.

  "Wouldn't it be nice if sister came over even if there's nothing in particular, I'd definitely welcome her." Qiao Jingyu smiled, curling up the corners of her mouth.

  "It's been a while since I came out, so I won't disturb my sister anymore. Sister, take good care of your pregnancy." Su Jingzhi stood up and bowed slightly as she said this.

  Qiao Jingyu also stood up, "Just a few days ago, the provincial governor distributed this year's new tribute materials to the palace. My sister was busy with these annoying things and didn't have time to send them out. Since my younger sister is here, she can pick a few pieces to take back."

  Next to her, Lu Jing hurriedly took out a few pieces of fine-colored rain silk from the warehouse. Su Jing only glanced at it and turned around, "Sister is kind, younger sister thanks you."

  "Sister, don't be polite, Qingyi will see Zhen off for me." Qiao Jingyu followed with a polite phrase.

  "Yes" Green silk replied

  Green silk saw their figures disappear before turning around "Is Concubine Zhen here to make amends?"

  Qiao Jingyu lightly shook her head, "With her current status and favor, she doesn't need to curry favor with me, it's just a matter of each taking what they need."

  "It's really unnecessary for you to be so self-deprecating. The Emperor treats you differently." Qing Gui said, somewhat at a loss for words, but still trying to comfort her.

  Such consolation is pale and powerless. Qiao Jingyu had long seen through the step-by-step approach to today, and she was forced by circumstances to be unwilling to make such calculations.

  But since we've all chosen to let go of those lost things, why bother clinging to them so bitterly? In the end, it's just exhausting ourselves.

  "The Emperor's treatment of me is clear in my heart, you don't need to comfort me like this. Looking at the current situation, it seems that my initial gamble was not wrong."

  "Will Niangniang know about Zhenxiu's appearance?" Lu Qie also knew that her comfort was useless, so she changed the subject and asked.

  Qiao Jingyu nodded thoughtfully "Perhaps she already knows"

  Su Jing is not a fool, she discovered it earlier than the queen did. She chose to put her bets on herself. Judging from the current situation, as long as she doesn't plot against herself, there will definitely be a place for her in the harem.

  Lu Jing didn't ask much and instead steered the conversation back to "How does the princess plan to handle this matter?"

  "Since Zhen Xiurong has taken the initiative to show her attitude, I will naturally help her. " Qiao Jingyu smiled faintly and said, "Pass on my orders: if anyone in the palace dares to discuss this matter again, they will be executed immediately, no need to report back."

  Helping her is also helping myself. After all, that person dares to repeatedly calculate and use me, which is somewhat too much of a cheat.

  Lu Jing was taken aback, such an iron-blooded wrist maiden had never been seen before. However, she also knew that many things were not for her to interfere with. Upon hearing this, Fu Le nodded and said "Yes, I'll go."

  Zichen Hall

  Zong Zhengjin sat at the top and glanced down at the people below. "If you want to laugh, then laugh, why must you stifle it?"

  Meng Wen Tian laughed out loud, his shoulders shaking uncontrollably. With great difficulty, he finally managed to stop and said, "Your Majesty, this is exactly why I didn't want to marry in the first place. Don't ever force me again!"

  From his point of view, marrying a woman is equivalent to marrying trouble and still putting it at home every day, thinking that it can't be avoided, it's simply looking for trouble and seeking death.

  He was originally a free-spirited and unrestrained person, and he would never be willing to restrain himself for the sake of a woman. Even if it's the kind of all-consuming love that's spoken of in those romance novels, no matter how passionate or happy it is, he'd rather give it up than have it.

  If it weren't for his mother's strict control at home, coupled with the presence of this person in front of him who couldn't stand him, he would rather stay out and have nothing to do with her. At times like these, wouldn't it be delightful to find a few charming companions?

  "What do you think? Since I'm suffering, it's better if you accompany me" Zong Zhengjin sneered with a laugh.

  Even if he knew Meng Wentian's nature, marrying and having children to carry on the family line is a common principle in life. Mr. Meng had sacrificed for him back then, and now, towards the only bloodline left by Mr. Meng, Zong Zhengjin, it was impossible for Meng Wentian to be neglected.

  He can tolerate Meng Wentian's occasional disobedience and ignore his frequent misbehavior, but it is precisely because of the guilt in his heart and the promise he made to Meng Da that he cannot let Meng Wentian continue like this forever.

  However, in Zong Zhengjin's heart, if he hadn't chosen to take on the heavy responsibility of ascending to the throne as emperor at the beginning, he would have been extremely envious of Meng Wentian.

  He has been trapped in this deep palace since he was a child, and even after leaving the palace to build his own house, there is still no extra time for him to do what he truly wants to do in his heart. He wants to do his best, he wants to avenge his grievances, he wants to continue this bloodline and live on.

  He endured too much and had to suppress himself, forcing himself that if he couldn't make it to today's position, he wouldn't have the chance to reminisce about these things, and would have long been a handful of yellow earth sleeping underground.

  Since you've chosen it, then go all the way with it; the value lies in persistence.

  And he didn't regret it

  "What do you plan to do, Your Majesty?" Meng Wentian didn't dare to argue with him again. Otherwise, the one who would end up suffering would be himself. He had understood this logic a long time ago. Changing the subject was the most appropriate thing to do.

  As expected, Zong Zhengjin's attention was diverted "What do you think"

  Just now Su Shun had come to report and happened to meet Meng Huo-tien who was discussing state affairs with him, so he let him listen together. If he knew that he would laugh at him, he should have driven him out at the time.

  It's too late for regrets.

  "Cough cough" Meng heard Tian's serious expression and said, "I think the true intention of the mastermind behind this is what's really worth investigating."

  Zong Zhengjin nodded his head. For so many years, he didn't manage the harem affairs much. It was handled by the empress before. Whatever the empress did, after initial anger, he accepted it calmly and even helped her implement it.
