The Royal Highness - C20

The presence of the empress was a solemn affair, and the concubine s were not allowed to look around. After descending from the Consort Shu, everyone stood in order, and when the attendants shouted “The empress has arrived!”, everyone bowed their heads and kneeled down.

The luxuriously purple dress was spread out on the smooth and bright floor like a blossoming flower. The maidservant slowly walked into the hall. After they sat down, they called out: “You may rise.”

However, there was nothing that could overshadow the dazzling light of the throne. Yet, with such simple clothing, the dazzling light fused onto the Empress’s body.

As the attendants sang their names, all the other consorts came forward to pay their respects to the empress. Yesterday, Qing Ya had already told Xiao Bu’Er about the origins of the concubine s in the palace. Looking at their appearances now, compared to what Xiao Mei had imagined, it was actually quite interesting.

At first, everyone thought that the empress’s description was kind and amiable, but after watching her smile for a long time, they started to panic. What exactly did the empress see in her eyes? What was she thinking? Why was she not saying a word for a long time?

An uneasy feeling lingered in the upper yang palace, just that the Hall was too wide, and that anyone who stood there would feel insignificant. Their hearts were filled with hesitation, but how could they compete with the majesty of the hall.

“It’s a long way from the shore to here. You’ve all worked hard.” “Saluting the Empress is the duty of all concubines. They don’t dare to say that it’s hard work, and it’s the fortune of the concubines that the Empress receives the gift.”

“In the future, I will serve Your Majesty and Empress Dowager together, and we will be on good terms. six palaces’s peace and harmony is our fortune.”

Consort Shu bowed and replied, “Chenqie will remember it.” It was only then that the women behind her gave a ragged answer.

Waiting until the hall became quiet again, Xiao Qian said, “From tomorrow onwards, you don’t have to come and greet me. Every first and fifteenth year is enough for us to meet. The Longevity Palace will naturally follow the rules set by the Longevity Palace. upper yang palace will meet with heavy snowstorms twice a month, so we will naturally avoid this. ”

The elegant guard’s eyes widened as he looked at the empress in disbelief. When had this young master ever thought of such a thing? Why hadn’t he mentioned it in advance? If it was any other person becoming the Queen, they would probably be eager to establish authority and make the six palaces obediently kneel under their skirts. But this person ….

Consort Shu said as expected, “If the Empress is willing to show mercy to her concubines, then it would be their fault. The concubines do not dare to go against the palace’s rules.”

She was not that tall, but all of the concubine s were standing at the bottom of the steps, looking down from above. Right now, she was standing up with more and more imposing manner, but her smile was still warm and gentle, her smile was so beautiful that it would attract people to take a glance at it, but with one glance, one would be able to feel the aura behind the smile. The Queen seemed to have deliberately hidden it, and it was because she hid it too deeply, that it made people feel even more uncertain.

“From now on, you will follow the rules of the upper yang palace.” Yu’er looked at Consort Shu lightly, and Consort Shu had no choice but to retract her gaze, bowing helplessly and saying yes, this matter was settled.

What was even more shocking was that after saying this, the empress was about to leave.

Qing Ya watched the empress walking towards her in a daze until she saw the door open. She recovered from her shock and hurriedly helped her up, but couldn’t help asking in a low voice, “Empress, are you going to disperse just like that?

Lin Zhaoyi walked to the side of the Consort Shu and snorted unhappily. “Empress, what do you think the Empress means by this?

The Consort Shu, on the other hand, remembered what the Emperor dragged her to the Longevity Palace to do yesterday. Compared to the way the Empress had treated them and the fact that she had ignored them, the Emperor’s thoughts were nothing more than child’s play.

“No wonder…” The Consort Shu talked to herself.

“Empress, no wonder what?” Lin Zhaoyi’s eyes were filled with curiosity.

Consort Shu glanced at her coldly. “Go back. What kind of place is upper yang palace?

At the same time, in the assembly of the Hall of Announcements, the emperor opened the imperial report that was presented by the Prime Minister Qiu Zhenyu. The words “Qiang Shui Guan” caused him to frown, but he heard that Qiu Zhenyu said: “Your Majesty, the guards of the Qiang Shui Guan had left their posts without permission, causing the citizens to be raided and killed by the Southern Barbaric Nether Domain.

Xiang Ye slowly rolled up the report, and the scene of Qiu Miner picking up the letter the night before suddenly appeared in front of her eyes. Even if Qiu Zhenyu had eyes and ears all over the world, it was impossible for it to be so fast. He had retracted his anger last night because he originally had other plans for the Qiang Shui Guan, but this time, Qiu Zhenyu was the one who thought that he was ahead of him.

Xiang Ye had gotten used to Qiu Zhenyu’s morals, but who was the one who leaked the news? Even if he were to hand it over tomorrow, Xiang Ye would not doubt it at all, but it had only been half the night.

“How does it come to be a sin for the Emperor to think of it? However, you have other affairs to attend to, so you can leave the matters of the Qiang Shui Guan to the Military Department to investigate.” Xiang Ye said this with a calm expression. No matter how angry she was, she didn’t show the slightest bit of emotion on her face.

Even after the assembly ended, no one noticed the emperor’s displeasure, but after entering the Qingming Pavilion, Xiang Ye asked Zhou Huai, “Where is the Queen?”

The emperor’s anger made the Eunuch Zhou tremble, and he replied, “The Empress received the six palaces this morning, and she is still in the upper yang palace.”

Xiang Ye took off the thick and heavy dragon robe on his body, picked up the jade bone fan on the table and walked out: “Go!”
