Chapter 23
The emperor frowned and nodded, but still let Concubine Zheng leave.

Concubine Zheng turned around, and dared to show the hideousness on her face.

When Concubine Zheng left Yufuxuan, everything that happened here would be spread throughout the harem.

For a while, everyone gloated at Concubine Zheng's embarrassment, and was wary of Lin Guiren's position in His Majesty's heart.

Apart from Concubine Zheng's favor for more than ten years, there is also the Seventh Highness Xiao Changluo, why should she be humiliated because of a small nobleman.

While everyone was gloating, they also felt a little sympathetic, and when they thought of themselves, they all felt a little down.

Yun Zhao strolled around the harem, and saw concubines one after another wiping tears secretly at the flowers or ponds in the imperial garden, was startled, and even raised his head to look at the sky.

There is nothing wrong with the fact that the sun rises in the east.

"Princess Concubine?" One of them saw Yun Zhao with sharp eyes, and walked over with a smile. Before Yun Zhao could speak, he pulled Yun Zhao into their small group.

Those sitting in the front are concubines with children, while those on the sides and behind are concubines who are not favored and have no children.

If they want to survive in this harem, without the emperor's favor, they can only find a way out for themselves.

It was also because the emperor had been doting on Concubine Zheng all these years, and the empress couldn't control it, so these concubines hugged each other.

"Crown princess, I wonder if the empress has spare time?"

It was Concubine Hui who spoke, she was the oldest in the harem, and she was the eldest son, so all the concubines were often headed by her.

Yun Kingdom's harem is clean, so Yun Zhao never encountered these things before.

It's just that even if she hasn't met it, she has heard of it.

So at this moment, she immediately understood what Concubine Hui meant.

The emperor doted on Lin Guiren, and even Concubine Zheng, who had been favored for many years, got a little bit of ashes in the past, and the concubines became even more anxious to get angry.

They believed that they did not have the favor of Concubine Zheng, if they accidentally offended Mrs. Lin, their hard work for so many years would be in vain.

Everyone thought of the Empress, although the Empress was not favored by His Majesty, although she did not often go out and stay in the Yongning Palace all day long, she still sat in the Empress's position, and her knees were also the Crown Prince's.

So at this time, it is most appropriate for the queen to face them.

If His Majesty is angered and the Crown Prince is involved because of this, then...they can be regarded as gaining something.

Everyone was clattering their abacus, and then all of them looked at Yun Zhao with smiles on their faces.

"Does the Crown Princess know about Lin Guiren, who has been favored recently?"

"This woman is really presumptuous. It's nothing more than occupying His Majesty these days, but she didn't go to the empress's place even once to pay her respects. It can be seen that she is disrespectful to the empress."

Yun Zhao blinked, as if he didn't understand why they said this.

Concubine Hui thought she really didn't understand, hesitated for a while, and then spoke a little more bluntly.

"Your Majesty is in the prime of life. Now that Guiren Lin is still childless, she is so arrogant that she can't see all of us. If she becomes pregnant, wouldn't it be..." Concubine Hui looked around and continued in a low voice, "Isn't it To suppress all princes."

Yun Zhao: "..."

She had a half-smile, "How can I, as a junior, talk about my father's matter?"

She is not a fool, she has nothing to do when she has nothing to do.

Who doesn't know that Lin Guiren is being favored, and even Concubine Zheng, who is shy every day, has to avoid her edge, why is she rushing to offend her?
Besides, the concubine and the princess have nothing to do with each other.

As for Xiao Changyin's position as the crown prince, she didn't even care.

Concubine Hui was a little surprised by Yun Zhao's reaction, but she didn't think too much, and continued to persuade, "If Lin Guiren is allowed to be so arrogant, sooner or later the empress will make trouble."

Yun Zhao bent his wrist and put it on his cheek, he couldn't help but glanced at them, "Empress Hui, what do you want me to do?"

Concubine Hui's smile was a little stiff, she thought that Yun Zhao would obediently go to the queen to speak after she finished those few words.

Who knows, he asked again as if he couldn't understand.

How did she answer?

It's hard for her to say, it's because they are jealous of Guiren Lin's favor, and hope that the queen will come forward to tell His Majesty not to stay in Yufu Pavilion day and night, but to be exposed to the rain and dew.

"Don't the concubine understand?" Concubine Hui kept a straight face, thinking that Yun Zhao was pretending.

Also thinking that the Crown Princess is young and alone in Beixiao, the Crown Princess will definitely please them as soon as their faces turn cold.

Yun Zhao slowly got up from the stone bench, looked at Concubine Hui and the others, smiled slightly, "I don't understand."

"I still have something to do, so I won't bother you ladies to enjoy the flowers and scenery."

Yun Zhao nodded, turned around and left without caring about the ugly faces of several people.

Before going back, she turned in a different direction and went to Yongning Palace.

The queen was in great spirits and was practicing calligraphy on the table next to the window. When she saw Yun Zhao coming over, she waved.

"Mother's queen." Yun Zhao obediently sat on the wooden chair brought over by Nanny Feng, looked at the snacks on the table, and hesitated which one to eat.

"Zhao Zhao, where did you come from?" The queen picked out a piece of candy for her, and Yun Zhao took it and took a satisfied bite.

He waited until he had finished eating before replying, "I'm going to see the queen mother early in the morning, but if I meet Concubine Hui and the others on the road, I will stay there for a while longer."

"Because of Mrs. Lin?"

Yun Zhao nodded.

"I heard that Qin Mingyue came to see you in person?"

Probably because I haven't heard this name for a long time, the queen was stunned when she said it.

"Did she say anything to you?"

Yun Zhao fell into hesitation, thinking whether to tell the queen what Qin Mingyue said.

But without her saying it, the queen can guess it, "What she told you, was it a marriage contract? A marriage contract between her and the prince?"

Yun Zhao's eyes were wide open, black and white pupils were so clean that there was no trace of impurities, and people couldn't help but feel happy when they looked at them.

"Mother, how do you know?"

"She is two years older than you, but she is not yet married, and she has not even made a marriage contract." The queen's expression gradually cooled down.

The Qin family is too greedy, they want everything, but they can't get anything in the end.

Yun Zhao didn't understand, and asked hesitantly, "The queen mother said that Miss Qin is waiting to enter the East Palace? She wants to be the princess?"

She doesn't care about the position of the princess, anyway, the friendship between the two countries cannot be determined by a marriage.

If he fell in love with Qin Mingyue, he would be the one who ruined the marriage, and he would be the one who was not conducive to the good relations between the two countries.

Yun Zhao began to think in his mind how to make the most reasonable and benefit-maximizing request after leaving the East Palace.

The queen didn't know that these three or two words made Yun Zhao think so much, she pressed the center of her eyebrows, and said in a cold voice, "The Qin family really thinks."

To Yun Zhao, she couldn't explain what happened back then too clearly, she just said, "Qin Mingyue's father was not able to sit in the position of doctor censor, but he traded his marriage for his future in the early years, and now he has a future. It's really shameless to want this marriage again."
