Chapter 141 Fanning the flames
Shen Zhiyao smiled charmingly and brightly, but she rolled her eyes countless times in her heart. I really don't believe you!
There was a thin layer of light pink lipstick on Shen Zhiyao's lips, which made Bo Muxi want to taste it.
The emperor naturally never wronged himself, and he did it as he thought...
Qiuyue, who was serving in the hall, couldn't bear to watch this scene which was not suitable for children, and could only stare at the ceiling in a daze.
After a while, Bo Muxi raised his head contentedly, and there was some pink on his thin lips.
"I feel that you care very much about the newcomer to the palace." Bo Muxi was unwilling to let her go easily and asked with a malicious look.
Care? What a joke! Shen Zhiyao only takes the enemy seriously in terms of tactics, but she is not afraid of him mentally. If anyone dares to provoke her, she will definitely teach the newcomer a lesson!
"Your Majesty... Can I not answer this question? If I am not careful and fail to answer what you want, Your Majesty will dislike me!" Shen Zhiyao didn't care and just hugged the emperor and acted coquettishly.
"You must answer my questions seriously, otherwise I will punish you severely!" Bo Muxi gently pinched the little concubine's chin. His behavior was gentle, but his tone was firm.
The emperor didn't think that this was an attempt to intimidate the concubine!
"Well, I see that the emperor cares about her, and I am a little jealous..." Shen Zhiyao buried her head in his arms and rubbed it gently.
Shen Zhiyao's eyes were full of affection when she spoke.
Bo Muxi looked at her and thought she was very cute, so he held her in his arms and said, "My beloved concubine, instead of being jealous secretly, you should think about how to win my favor."
The two of them were getting close to each other and gradually started to get wilder. Bo Muxi could no longer endure it and stood up, hugged her and went to the inner room...
After everything calmed down, the two of them got up, bathed and washed up before lying back on the couch.
"My beloved, as long as you treat me sincerely, I will never let you down." Bo Muxi promised while hugging her.
Shen Zhiyao lazily leaned in his arms: "I have always treated Your Majesty sincerely..."
"I rarely make promises, why are you so indifferent?" Bo Muxi pinched her cheek and left a red mark.
Shen Zhiyao was annoyed, but she didn't dare to get angry, so she could only coax him in a good-tempered manner: "I am very sleepy, it's because you are so awesome..."
She thought to herself, if it were modern times, she would have kicked him under the bed. Isn't it annoying to disturb her sleep?
Bo Muxi smiled, then stopped talking with understanding, closed his eyes and fell asleep.
The next morning, both of them got up late. Shen Zhiyao looked at the emperor with a sad look while adjusting his belt.
The emperor looked at her rather perfunctory action with a smile, and turned his head and said, "Lin'en, tell my imperial kitchen to prepare a special meal for Jin Wanyi at noon to nourish her."
Lin En bowed and responded.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness!" After Shen Zhiyao bowed to express her gratitude, she continued to adjust the emperor's belt.
"Okay, then I'll leave." Bo Muxi gently stroked the hair by her ear.
"I respectfully send you to your Majesty."
Shen Zhiyao brought Cuiweixuan's servants and sent Bo Muxi to the door, and only then did she finally breathe a sigh of relief.
She had gotten up late in the first place, so she packed up in a hurry, not even having time to eat breakfast, and took Qiuyue to Fengyi Palace.
Shen Zhiyao was in the emperor's bed last night, and she was late in the morning. According to convention, everyone should have made some jokes.
But everyone knew that Shen Zhiyao had a sharp tongue, and besides, a new person had joined the company with great fanfare the day before yesterday, so naturally the topic of discussion today all revolved around the new person.
Li Xiaoyi from Concubine Zhao’s team fired the “first shot”.
"Empress, it's getting harder and harder for us concubines. First, a dancer was sent here, and now a musician was sent here. Look how fascinated the emperor was by her in Qingyin Pavilion the other day! Sigh, I don't know if this new sister is easy to get along with. Concubines like us who have no skills are destined to be offended. We can only give in to her..."
Shen Zhiyao secretly laughed at Li Xiaoyi. She was so sullen and looked so aggrieved, as if she had been bullied by Hu Baolin.
"Li Xiaoyi doesn't have to give in deliberately. Even if she can seduce the emperor, she cannot break the palace rules. She is just Baolin. If it really doesn't work out, there is still the Empress to make the decision for us!" Zhang Wanyi thought the matter was not big enough and continued to stir up emotions.
"This is another one who has not learned the rules. I am really worried that she will not be able to manage her servants well and cause trouble for the Empress." Concubine Zhao pretended.
Shen Zhiyao heard this and thought: The one who can cause the most trouble to the Queen is probably you, Concubine Zhao! How dare you say such shameless things about others?
Concubine Lu Shu, who always claimed to be neutral, was also out of character and said aggrievedly: "Yesterday, I sent a maid to give a gift to the new sister Hu. Alas! Sisters also know that my family is not very well off and I don’t have many good things. Maybe the gift was cheap. The maid came back and said that sister Hu had a cold face the whole time…"
Shen Zhiyao didn't believe this, but after all, it was Concubine Lu Shufei who said it, so there were people who would believe it.
But why did Concubine Lu Shufei make such abnormal remarks?
General Shen Zhiyao looked back and forth between Concubine Lu Shufei and Concubine Zhao Guifei, always feeling that there was something fishy between them. When did these two get "hooked up" together?
"Oh! Such a thing actually happened! This really shouldn't happen! If it's like this right after entering the palace, how can I survive?" Wei Wanyi sighed.
Wei Wanyi was from Queen Mother Zhao's faction, so Shen Zhiyao thought it was normal for her to lend her support at this time.
"Well, to be honest, I have a rather impatient temper. Next time when I meet this Miss Hu, I really have to be less irritable." Zhu Baolin helped out in time.
Everyone was talking at once, and they put a lot of "hats" on Hu Baolin, who had never even come to Fengyi Palace to pay his respects.
Although it is not very clear, the meaning is conveyed.
"Well, Hu Baolin hasn't had time to get along with everyone yet. We have to give him a chance, right? I will pay attention. If you are really wronged, I will handle it according to the palace rules. The emperor also attaches great importance to etiquette and will definitely support me."
The queen's words carried great weight. This was her usual style. She would take action to handle things and would never say a word more. So no one dared to say anything more.
"Assorted." Seeing that everyone was unwilling to accept it, the Queen turned around and said, "Arrange a more experienced maid to go to Zhengfu Palace to teach Hu Baolin the rules."
"Yes, I will arrange it as soon as possible." Shijin bowed in response.
When everyone heard this, they were secretly happy. Hu Baolin had been in the limelight since she had just entered the palace, and now it would be great to suppress her arrogance. How great it was!
Once the nanny appointed by the Queen arrived, it was like slapping Hu Baolin in the face in public. Didn't this clearly indicate that she didn't know the rules?
Everyone began to talk in low voices.
Shen Zhiyao and Lu Wanyi looked at each other and whispered in her ear, "The Queen has always been magnanimous and has never lost her demeanor as a queen mother. Since someone has reported it, we should handle it according to the rules. No one can say anything."
"Yes, but Hu Baolin just entered the palace and is eager to climb up. How can she not pay attention to her reputation? Now she has suffered a loss. Let's see what she will do next!" Lu Wanyi responded in a low voice.
