The Legitimate Daughter Empress - C208

Chapter 207 – Capturing a Pet

“I just think it’s getting weirder and weirder.” What Qin Luofei could not understand the most was the motive behind this murderer. During lunch time, the person most likely to come in contact with the pearl was Su Fei.

What was all this?

Just as Qin Luofei was at a loss over what to do, an eunuch walked in from outside.

“Greetings, Concubine Qin. The Emperor has sent a message. Please come to Cool Hall tomorrow.”

Qin Luofei was stunned. Why would Emperor Ming want to see her at this time, it couldn’t be because of a mere palace maid, could it?!

“His Majesty, he …?”

Before Qin Luofei could finish speaking, the Young Eunuch had already said, “This servant does not know, I ask that Concubine Qin come to Cool Hall tomorrow at noon, and do not delay it by any means.”

“Understood, thank you eunuch.”

Qin Luofei pondered as she watched her father-in-law’s departing figure. The Emperor Ming didn’t know what else to do, so he hoped that it wasn’t anything bad. It was unknown if it was him alone or all of the imperial concubines.

The next day, Qin Luofei was wearing a brocade orchid palace uniform. She had a slim waist and a slim waist, showing off her exquisite figure. A silver jade violet moon hairpin lightly coiled around her hair. It was as beautiful as a woman and as graceful as an immortal.

“Miss, you’re so beautiful.” Although Daihua had followed Qin Luofei for so long, he still couldn’t help but praise her.

“Look at you, girl. Your mouth is getting sweeter and sweeter.” Qin Luofei said with a smile.

Xi Ling smiled coyly, “Miss, you seem to have improved a lot. That’s what I think every time I put makeup on you.”

“Let’s go, if we don’t, we won’t make it in time. The thing that Emperor Ming hates the most is people being late.” Qin Luofei tapped Daihua’s forehead.

When Qin Luofei arrived at the entrance of the Cool Hall, she met Su Fei.

“Concubine Qin.” Su Fei’s dressing was very beautiful and charming.

Qin Luofei was startled, it seemed that the Emperor Ming did not summon one of her people.

Judging from Su Fei’s outfit, she must have spent a lot of time and effort. Could it be that she wanted to use this opportunity to win over the Emperor Ming?

“Esteemed Su Han, you’ve come too.” Qin Luofei replied.

Su Fei smiled, “I wonder why Your Majesty summoned us?”

“What else could it be? I haven’t celebrated my pregnancy to this day. Don’t you know that the emperor is giving us a banquet to celebrate? ”

Imperial Consort Leng came from behind them, with a domineering expression, stroking her bulging stomach from time to time.

“Imperial Concubine, be careful.” When Su Fei saw that Imperial Consort Leng had turned into a flattering little person, she beamed at him with an evil and fawning look.

“Su Fei is still the best. Let’s go.” The Emperor is waiting for us there. ”

Imperial Consort Leng glanced at Qin Luofei with disdain. This woman had only come to Cool Hall because of his celebration today. Otherwise, with her current infamous reputation, not beating her into the cold palace was already good enough for her.

Because this woman was pregnant, Emperor Ming held such a grand feast. But when his Princess Tranquil was ill, he paid no attention to it. She gritted her teeth and walked in with heavy steps.

The floor of Cool Hall was covered with a red carpet, so the main character today was naturally Imperial Consort Leng. She, Emperor Ming and the others sat in the upper seats of the Consort Shu. Qin Luofei walked over to her seat and swept her eyes over the people present.

Seeing the Imperial Consort Yu constantly trying to change her expression, Qin Luofei indicated with a smile with a nod of her head. The Emperor Ming was indeed a special favor to the Imperial Consort Yu.

The imperial concubines present were all discussing with each other. It seemed like they had no idea why they were here today. His father-in-law, who was following beside Emperor Ming, walked out and coughed. The scene immediately became quiet.

“My lords and mistresses, the emperor has invited all of the masters here today to celebrate the birth of the Emperor’s Imperial Concubine and specially arranged this banquet.”

So it was because of the matter of the Empress Leng that caused the people of the harem to panic, especially the Imperial Consort Leng. The Emperor Ming only agreed to set up this banquet after she had done all sorts of things to him. The purpose was to let the Imperial Consort Leng feel at ease, and the real purpose of the Imperial Consort Leng was to show off in front of all the consorts the importance they held in the heart of the Emperor Ming.

Emperor Ming glanced at the acting concubine and said, “For you to come today, I will make a long story short. I hope that the imperial harem can get along peacefully and I do not wish to hear any bad rumors. ”

If it was not at a certain point, Emperor Ming would not personally intervene in the affairs of the harem.

From the incident with Qin Luofei to the sudden death of the maidservants at Su Fei’s side, all these Emperor Ming knew this very well. The politics of the court had put him out of his mind, and he didn’t have much time to run the harem.

“Your concubines shall obey your majesty’s orders.”

All the consorts answered in unison.

At this time, Qin Luofei was still immersed in her own world, and all she could think of were the scenes of the Princess Tranquil. After all, love was born when one came into contact with a scene, not to mention seeing this enemy of his from his previous life and from his current life. Seeing them sitting there loving each other, Qin Luofei felt very upset in her heart. However, it was seen by someone who wanted to see it.

“Concubine Qin, did you not hear what the emperor said? Why didn’t you say anything? ” Imperial Consort Leng’s eyes saw Qin Luofei’s absent-mindedness.

“Miss, Imperial Consort Leng is calling you.” Sunset Flower stood behind him and lightly called out to Qin Luofei.

Qin Luofei came back to her senses. This woman was always this way to target her. It seemed like she didn’t want him to be at peace today.

“Chenqie has been listening to what Your Majesty has to say with all her heart, but … Your consort’s body hasn’t been feeling well recently, so I couldn’t react in a short while. Qin Luofei calmly explained.

Imperial Consort Leng looked at Emperor Ming with a displeased expression, hoping that he would help him vent his anger. However, the Emperor Ming did not care about it, his focus was all on the Imperial Consort Yu.

Consort Shu who was seated at the side could not help but say this.

“Imperial Consort Leng, today is the day to celebrate the good fortune of the little prince in your womb. There is no need to get angry over such a small thing, it would be bad if the child in your womb is angered.” Consort Shu knew that Imperial Consort Leng was a human, and seeing her act so arrogantly, she couldn’t stand to watch.

“Consort Shu, you!” Imperial Consort Leng glared at Consort Shu. This woman was always helping Qin Luofei go against him.

Consort Shu turned her head in disdain.

Imperial Consort Leng acted like a spoiled brat, but in the end, she still did not receive Emperor Ming’s attention.

At this moment, Emperor Ming turned to the side and spoke with Imperial Consort Yu, completely forgetting about him. The other concubine s also saw this and secretly watched the good show.

“Your majesty, today is a joyous day. Why don’t we allow the imperial concubines to display their talents?” Imperial Consort Yu suggested.

Emperor Ming looked to be in a good mood, and said: “If Love Consort likes it, I’ll grant it.”

“We heavily reward that Love Consort for her good performance.” The Emperor Ming said.

This was a rare opportunity. If one performed well, it was possible that he or she would be favored by the emperor. Many of the imperial concubines were well aware of this.

“Chenqie, come here.” A consort in the crowd stood up and began to dance in the empty hall.

It was just that her dancing posture was miles away from Imperial Consort Leng’s. Emperor Ming didn’t even look at them. After the first contestant appeared, one after another, some of them took the initiative to go forward and dance for the emperor.

The first day they entered the palace, they were pushed out by the Emperor Ming and told that they were not a virgin.

Remembering the Emperor Ming’s angry roar at his, a shadow still lingered in Su Fei’s heart.

But if he missed this chance, who knows how long he would have to wait before he would have the chance to see the Emperor Ming again. She recalled that bloody scene. Hatred filled her eyes. No matter what, she had to be doted upon by the Emperor.

Qin Luofei noticed Su Fei’s eyes. Was she going up to perform when she saw her expression? However, he had not heard of any talents that Su Fei was good at.

When the other concubines came down, Su Fei walked up to them.

Everyone in the harem knew about Su Fei’s situation. It was already a blessing that the Emperor Ming did not execute her.

When Emperor Ming saw Su Fei walking over, his face was full of surprise. This woman really had the guts. However, he wanted to see what kind of talent this woman had.

Su Fei first paid her respects to the Emperor and said, “Chenqie is good at playing bamboo leaves.”

“Go pick a bamboo leaf and send it to Su Fei.” Imperial Consort Leng was very considerate to Su Fei, and this was all thanks to Su Fei’s flattery.

The palace maid handed a bamboo leaf to Su Fei. The imperial concubines present began to discuss the matter.

“This is the first time I’ve heard a song being played with bamboo leaves, could she be bragging?” If you don’t say it, then see how Emperor Ming punishes her. ”

“Lower your voice. We just need to sit and wait for the good show.”

Qin Luofei also had a face of surprise, how could these bamboo leaves play a tune? However, all of this was under everyone’s disbelief. Su Fei Fei picked up the bamboo leaf in her hand and blew on it.

The sound produced by the bamboo leaves was completely different from the music that Emperor Ming would normally get tired of. The sound was melodious and melodious, it was simply the sound of nature.

Because of this unique melody, Emperor Ming was attracted to it.

Just as the melody finished, Emperor Ming couldn’t help but clap.

“Good, good.”

The corner of Su Fei’s mouth rose.

“Thank you, your majesty, for your praise.” He did not expect that the bamboo leaves that he had learned from his father outside the palace would make him stand out from the masses when he came to the palace. The phrase “everything is precious because it is rare” was absolutely correct.

Hearing the Emperor Ming’s praise, all the concubines couldn’t help but clap their hands as well.

“I didn’t expect Su Fei to be so talented. Bamboo leaves make a tune.” Imperial Consort Leng was also constantly praising him.

When Su Fei walked back to her seat, Emperor Ming’s eyes were always on her. Qin Luofei had already noticed this scene. It seemed like Su Fei Fei’s good days had come, and the palace was filled with rare items that were valuable. As long as you had something that was different from the people you excelled in, you would be favored.

From start to finish, Qin Luofei sat in her seat without moving a muscle. She no longer wanted to curry favor with this man. He originally thought that Imperial Consort Leng would be the main character of the banquet, but he never expected that Su Fei would be the final winner.

After the banquet, Su Fei followed Imperial Consort Leng to gather at the palace.

“Su Fei, your performance just now was really not bad. It seems like you still have a chance.” Imperial Consort Leng was currently pregnant, so she could no longer serve Emperor Ming. Currently, the Emperor Ming only favored those who were protecting Qin Luofei and the rest, so she hoped that the Emperor Ming would be able to love Su Fei as well. Su Fei was someone who stood on his side.

“I hope so.” As Su Fei said this, she lowered her head, her eyes filled with an unconcealable killing intent. This was her first step towards success.
