Chapter 234 Reward (Part 2)

Jinling, Imperial Palace

At the end of June, the weather gradually became hotter, and the maids walking on the road in the palace changed into thin shirts.

Because these palace maids are new to the age of 18, they are not allowed to wear makeup according to the palace system, which is a privilege for women with status.

But youth is better than red makeup. They have bright eyes and white teeth, and are wearing light dresses. When they are blown by the breeze, or when they walk, they are floating, making them look more charming.

"This is a gift to Concubine Wang Jin's palace. You can't be neglected. I'll send it now."

"promise."

A few new girls who are only in their 14th and 15th years old are wearing the most ordinary clothes in the palace, holding the luxurious and gorgeous dress that they just entered the warehouse. It is impossible to say that they don’t envy them.

After receiving the mission, the girls walked towards Concubine Jin's palace together.

Along the way, I couldn't help but chat in a low voice.

"These clothes are so beautiful!"

"Yes, it's a blessing to be able to touch it. This is a reward that only the concubine level can get!"

"I have met Concubine Jin, but she is a great beauty. She is so beautiful when wearing these clothes."

“That’s natural…”

The girl had just entered the palace for less than a year or two and was very envious of several concubines who were deeply favored by the king. They didn't dare to think about the status of the queen, but if they were lucky and were attracted by the king, they could be lucky. In the future, they would have to endure the year and have another child, and they might be promoted to a concubine.

This is not a complete lack of chance. The Queen Mother arranged a few girls she liked to serve the queen closely.

Concubine Jin is as famous as her name, even though she is beautiful, she has a cold feeling.

However, she was able to be favored by the king, unlike the queen's noble beauty and aristocratic identity, and the gentleness and love of the imperial concubine, why did such a cold woman continue to be honored and favored after entering the palace?

Although I have no children or daughters, I may be lucky once a few days later.

There are also special cases where you can close your palace and not pay tribute. The queen has never had such privileges. Isn’t it extremely honorable and favored?

"Here." Until a quiet palace appeared in front of her, several people couldn't help but stop their voices.

"Are you here to deliver things?" A woman in a female official's costume walked down the white stone steps, looked down at them condescendingly, and asked.

"Sir, I am sending the clothes to Concubine Jin." The girl led the lead took two steps forward and bent back and said, "Now they have no official positions and are the lowest-level palace maids. They can only call themselves slaves, and the other party is already an official, even if they are a female body, they should be called "Sir"!

After looking at her for a while, the female official nodded: "Come in."

"No." The girl holding her clothes responded obediently.

Speaking of which, this is the first time she has been here. Although she has been to the Queen's Palace, the layout here makes her feel even more solemn.

The white steps, the slightly glazed ground, the smooth and white huge stone pillars, and the cold arrangement made her subconsciously hold her breath.

The female official took her to a room in the outer hall. After registering, she asked her to leave.

Then the female official walked slowly to the back. After meeting several people on the road, she finally met her master, Empress Jin.

According to the main clothes, the queen is deep purple, the four concubines are Ming purple, and the concubine is lilac, but Concubine Jin is not wearing the main clothes and is wearing a light red dress.

He has fluttering sleeves, high hair, slender waist, and a jade bracelet on his snow-white wrist. He sat on a wooden chair in the flower bed, holding a tree in his hand for two days, and his appetite was much worse when he was eating.

"Queen Queen, but these foods are not to your liking? Why don't you let me change them on the stove?" The female official who was serving beside her was a little panicked.

"Queen Queen, you had a bad appetite yesterday. Have you found a doctor to take your pulse?"

"No need to do this." Song Xinyou frowned slightly: "It's just that she has a bad appetite."

"The Queen's Phoenix Body is important..." The female official persuaded: "Is the chef changing? Why don't you change the past?"

"Swap these greasy and heavy ones and change to some light ones!" Still shook his head, Song Xinyou pointed to the food in front of him and said as he ordered.

Seeing this, the female official and the maids around had to obey orders, exchanged the meals for another batch, and ordered them to use lighter.

This time, Song Xinyou got in a little.

"Queen Queen, are you..." After everyone around him went down, when Song Xinyou was left with only a confidant female official, the female official hesitated for a while and asked, "What have you noticed?"

"You are so smart." She curled her lips slightly, and a faint smile appeared on Song Xinyou's face, and she gently stroked her belly with her hands.

"Don't I know the situation of this palace? I'm afraid it's happening again."

"Congratulations!" The female official was overjoyed after hearing this and immediately fell to the ground, congratulating Song Xinyou.

"Get up quickly, there are no outsiders here." Song Xinyou said with a smile: "I won't mention this matter to the king for now. After these few days, the king will mention it when he is in a good mood."

"I understand, no wonder you have eaten very lightly these days, but I have scared me." The female official stood up and said with a smile.

"Although there is not much dirt in the palace, we must be careful about it." Song Xinyou stroked her lower abdomen with satisfaction: "I just don't know whether this child is a man or a woman."

"Queen Queen!" At this moment, someone reported outside the hall: "I have something to do and ask for a meeting!"

"Go and see who it is." Song Xinyou put away her smile, glanced at the outside lightly, and said instructing her.

"No." The female official responded and walked back with a strange expression.

"Empress, that's it..." She murmured a few words in Song Xinyou's ear.

Song Xinyou's face changed slightly: "Call her in."

"promise."

A palace maid was brought in and knelt down in front of Song Xinyou: "I servant Lanzhi pays homage to the queen."

"Lanzhi, let me tell you what you discovered in Chuxiu Palace again."

"No!" Lanzhi didn't dare to get up, so she knelt on the ground and told Song Xinyou everything she knew.

"... After I discovered it, I immediately thought of reporting to you." After that, Lanzhi knelt on the ground without raising her head, and there was no sound.

After hearing the news brought back by the palace maid Lanzhi, Song Xinyou was silent for a while.

"You've done a good job. After going down, you will receive ten taels of silver and give it to you!"

"I thank the Queen for the reward!" Lanzhi hurriedly knelt on the ground and said thankfully.

"Get out!" Song Xinyou said lightly: "Also, after you go out, you know what you can say and what you can't say, right?"

"I know, I will never say anything." Lanzhi knelt on the ground and said.

"Yeah, go out."

"promise!"

"Empress..." After the palace maid Lanzhi went out, the female official looked strange and asked carefully: "How to deal with this matter?"

It turned out that what Lanzhi told Song Xinyou was about something that happened in Chuxiu Palace.

Xie Xiaoyi, a beautiful girl who was lucky by Wang Hongyi, has been in a low-key manner recently and is not noticed, but happened to be knocked out by the palace maid Lanzhi and vomited secretly. Finally, it was discovered that Xie Xiaoyi is pregnant.

It was a good thing, but it was hidden for a while depending on the situation.

No matter what Xie Xiaoyi thought, it made Queen Song Xinyou a little unhappy. According to the system, such things must be reported to the Queen as soon as possible.

"What should I do?" Song Xinyou sighed and glanced at the female official with dissatisfaction: "Do you think this palace is going to be unfavorable to that child?"

"This is a good thing. The king will be happy when he knows it. I am not a child and now I am pregnant again. How could I do such a virtuous thing?"

"But this girl doesn't know anything. If it weren't for the fact that I had a spy in Chuxiu Palace, I don't know how long it would be hidden by her... Haha, I sent an order and ordered the eunuch to check the files. If it matches it, I will pass it on to the imperial physician for examination."

"Also, pay close attention to this woman, and make an excuse to issue an imperial decree, first scold her for hiding her concealment, and then deal with it according to the system. Now, I will send someone to serve her now. Also, if you check the origin of this woman carefully, you will definitely not let the palace have any hidden dangers."

"But if her child is a man..."

Song Xinyou said lightly: "There is a difference between legitimate and illegitimate. I already have legitimate sons. If this child is a man, there will be two legitimate sons in front of him. Moreover, among the illegitimate sons, this child will not be the most favored, so it is unnecessary to pay attention to it."

"According to the system, I will not miss her if I want to give it to her. As long as she knows the matter and does not use dirt behind her back, I can tolerate her... There are not many more people in this palace, and there are not many less people. Can this woman still join the Four Concubines?"

Even if she is favored, how could she not tolerate a little girl?

Moreover, she vaguely understood that there was a mysterious force in the palace supervising, which made her feel scared.

"After a while, I'll send the soup to the king as usual, do you understand?"
