The emperor held the delicate imperial concubine in his arms and softly consoled her. He gently said, "My beauty is naturally the best. Naturally, he is my treasure."

That gentleness reached Qin Luofei's ears, causing her to feel pain in her lungs. It reminded her of the day she died, when the two people on top of the palace were in such a sorry state in front of her eyes.

When the past came back to her, she was still that lowly person, prostrating herself on the ground as she was trampled upon by others.

Imperial Consort Leng sat in the emperor's embrace and asked the emperor to feed her grapes. She was so shocked that all the surrounding palace maids shyly lowered their heads.

The emperor wasn't the least bit annoyed, but instead carefully coaxed him.

Qin Luofei kneeled on the ground without moving, her expression unmoving. This depth was something even Xiao Linzi himself could not compare to.

After the time it took to make a cup of tea, Imperial Consort Leng raised her head, as if she had just discovered Qin Luofeng's presence. She smiled and said, "When did Little Sister Qin come in?

"Thank you, Imperial Concubine." Qin Luofei stood up, only feeling the pain in her knee, but she couldn't press it. She could only endure the pain.

The emperor's eyes still did not stop on Qin Luofei's body. He only hugged imperial concubine and teased his.

"Your Majesty, don't." The Imperial Concubine spoke in a lazy tone.

Her little sister was really putting on an act like before. She was only putting on a show for him, so naturally, he should satisfy her.

Imperial Consort Leng released the emperor's arm, pulled the emperor down from the throne, and walked in front of Qin Luofei.

Imperial Consort Leng should be six months pregnant by now! She was even dressed up like a cicada's wing with a golden brocade in the color of honey. She wore a single silk gown with a long tail and a long tail. The fine details of the robe were all embroidered with auspicious clouds and gold thread.

Her hair was made into the hair of a spiritual snake, which perfectly suited her charming face. On her temples were six crescent-shaped hairpins made out of agate. Between her eyebrows, there was a flash of red.

This kind of outfit made her even more beautiful and radiant, to the point that it was impossible to see the unsightly look on her face after her pregnancy.

"Your majesty." Imperial Consort Leng snuggled into the Monarch's embrace, charmingly saying: "Why does Little Sister Qin's face look so ugly? Was she kneeling for too long just now, resenting me in her heart?"

He was indeed a human. The moment he appeared, he used his killing move.

The emperor's eyes coldly fell on Qin Luofei. He saw that her expression was calm to the point that he couldn't tell what she was thinking.

"You are resenting your Imperial Consort."

She wanted nothing more than to kill them all, but her hatred for them was so deep that she should play with them.

"Imperial Concubine is a country destroying beauty, she has the virtue of respecting all under the heavens, and she was personally sent to bring me into the palace. This humble woman only has gratitude in her heart, but not hatred."

Qin Luofei's voice was gentle, without the slightest bit of offense.

The Imperial Consort Leng coldly snorted, and then lightly supported her forehead as she said, "Your Majesty, I suddenly have a headache."

"What's wrong with beauties? Is it because I'm feeling unwell? " The emperor's sharp eyes shot towards Qin Luofei, and he coldly said, "Drag her out, and when your imperial concubine sees how unhappy you are, she won't let you stay in the palace. Go back to the Qin Manor!"

Qin Luofei only felt cold sweat trickling down her back, and the hatred in her heart only grew stronger. However, her body did not move in the slightest.

If she returned to Qin Manor, her life would be ruined. She could not let two people destroy her a second time.

"Forget it, I was the one who took her in. Wouldn't it be embarrassing to just send her back? Just bestow her with a title of imperial maid!" to be with the sickly Yangzi of concubine Ning. " Imperial Consort Leng smiled coldly in satisfaction.

"Then let's follow Love Consort's instructions, you're still not leaving." The emperor didn't even spare Qin Luofei a glance as he impatiently waved his hand.

"Chenqie will take her leave." Qin Luofei lowered her head and left the palace. "

Xiao Linzi was also drenched in cold sweat by the side. He didn't want anything to happen to Qin Luofei, so those three pairs of shoes were very much to his liking.

Xiao Linzi secretly looked at the emperor, and saw that the emperor's eyes slightly slanted towards the side of the door when Fourth Miss Qin left, and quickly retracted.

Xiao Linzi secretly thought, he did not know why Fourth Young Miss of the Qin Clan was so unfriendly, but luckily the Emperor did not seem to like Fourth Miss Qin, otherwise, it would be very troublesome.

Xiao Linzi left the palace and ordered an old eunuch to send him back.

The imperial maidservants were only one level higher than the ordinary palace maids. Even some of the palace maidservants were of a higher rank than the imperial maidservants. In the future, Fourth Young Miss Qin would have to live a troubled life in the palace.

Xiao Linzi shook his head.

Qin Luofei's five fingers nearly crushed her own arm. These two people were truly too much of a person, Qin Luofei didn't know how to curse those two. In short, they were two people even more terrible than Fifth Prince and Seventh Prince.

After exiting the Southern Smoke Hall, Qin Luofei took out a bag from her sleeve and secretly stuffed it into the old eunuch's hands.

The eunuch reached out his hand to pinch it, feeling that it was quite rich. He could not help but reveal a look of delight.

Qin Luofei didn't have any expression, she only calmly followed behind the old eunuch. That old eunuch had been in the palace for decades and had already grown up. He knew that he had not taken the money for free, but taking it was better than not having it at all.

He was not a favoured eunuch, and his position was not that of a useful eunuch either. He could only run errands everyday, and found it hard to take advantage of this situation. He could not help but fawn over this Qin Yu Nu.

Qin Luofei returned to her room, first to the concubine Ning's place of rest before returning to her own palace.

Daffodil Dayflower and Zi Yuan went to carry the food over and did not come back for a long time.

Qin Luofei's eyebrows twitched, as if something was going to happen.

One of the palace maids being assigned to her palace was called Lv Ying, the other was called Greensnow. Going to the imperial kitchens was originally their business, but with Qin Luofei not around, Sunflower and Zi Yuan did not move at all.

Qin Luofei had gotten to know the Lv Ying among them, and was clearly a maid in her good sister's palace. A few years had passed, and she had gained some face.

Qin Luofei lifted the sparkling white tea lid, and carefully took a sip of the fragrant green tea core inside the teacup, before placing the teacup next to her on the short plum blossom.

Her bright eyes looked at Lv Ying and Lu Xue who were standing by the side.

Most of the palace maids were beautiful, and this Lv Ying and Greensnow both looked pretty good. It was a pity that they were born too young, and could only be maids to the palace.

Seeing that Master was looking at her unkindly, Lu Xue had long ago revealed a face full of fear. However, Lv Ying raised his head and looked Qin Luofei in the eye, not putting her, the imperial daughter, in his eyes at all.

"You're not convinced with me." Qin Luofei creased her brows, a cold aura leaking out from the corner of her lips.

Lv Ying was not one to put on airs, coldly snorted, and said: "You are merely an imperial maid, and your level is as high as mine, so why should I serve you?"

"Lv Ying." Greensnow knew that Lv Ying was usually a magnanimous person, but she never expected that she would actually dare to contradict her master like this.

Qin Luofei lightly tapped the table with her finger, nodded slightly, and said, "Very good, I naturally do not dare to serve you. You may leave!"

"If you go out, go out." Lv Ying walked out of the house.

"Master, please spare Lv Ying!" Greensnow knelt on the ground, trembling as he looked up at Qin Luofei.

Qin Luofei faintly smiled, her lips curved into an unreachable fleeting smile, and said: "Stand up! It's not like I'm blaming you. Go and greet Flowers and Zi Yuan. "

Green-Snow got up from the ground in fear, smoothed her dress, and left the room.

Qin Luofei shook her head and sighed. Before she had entered the palace, she knew that it would not be so easy to defeat the Imperial Consort Leng.

After a while, Daihua and the others came back, but their faces were covered in slaps and bruises.

The food was even worse than the Qin Manor. There were only a few steamed buns and a dish of pickled vegetables.

Qin Luofei ordered Greensnow to bring hot water to wipe the wounds of Caizhi and Zi Yuan.

After busying herself for half a day and barely eating a steamed bun, Qin Luofei finally got on the bed to rest.

The night was as cold as water, and her eyes shone with an extraordinary light.

Qin Luo Fei initially wanted to go to the empress dowager's palace to meet her elder sister, but she felt that it wasn't appropriate. Her foundation wasn't stable yet, so if the Imperial Consort Leng suspected that she was going to rely on the empress dowager, it would be detrimental to her future life in the palace. Besides, she had an informant staring at him.

After breakfast, Qin Luofei went to concubine Ning's place. concubine Ning rarely went out his door, and only focused on raising Tan Yue.

In two years, no matter if Tan Yue could get the favor of His Majesty, he would be let out to set up a mansion. At that time, the concubine Ning could follow them out as well, as long as she doesn't beg for the emperor's love anymore.

This was also the best home for the ladies of the palace.

concubine Ning was dressed in traditional silk clothes with a light color dress train s, without any jewelry on his head. He sat beside Tan Yue and watched him practice his calligraphy.

A child like Tan Yue should have an enlightened teacher, but because the concubine Ning was unfavoured, no one asked.

Qin Luofei saw that Tan Yue's calligraphy was vigorous and powerful, that he had a certain foundation, and that Shangguan Que had been written as if it were a feather.

"Qin Yu Nu, do you think that my brush technique is good?" Tan Yue raised his gaze, it was as though his father's eyes had become a pair of long and narrow, phoenix eyes.

Qin Luofei held up the paper, nodded slightly, and said, "Not bad, not bad at all."

"Ling Tai (Tan Yue has changed his name to Ling Tai), you can ask Qin Yu Nu to teach you. She comes from a large clan, unlike my mother who came from a small household, I am not good at these things."

Qin Luofei looked at the calligraphy carefully and said, "Sister is really modest. Ling Tai had clearly received everyone's teachings, could it be that it wasn't elder sister who taught him?"

"My words weren't taught to me by my mother, they were taught to me by my Huan Beauty." Ling Tai changed a new piece of paper and copied Wang Xizhi's cursive script.

"Huan Beauty?" Qin Luofei was slightly stunned. There wasn't a single Huan Beauty in her memories.

The concubine Ning didn't hear the loophole in her words and smiled. "It's the Huan Beauty who has been ill ever since we entered the palace. Normally, we can't even meet with the Emperor, but what a pity that he's such a beautiful lady."

"Huan Beauty is even better looking than Imperial Consort Leng." Ling Tai interrupted on the side.

concubine Ning's face slightly changed, and reprimanded: "Ling Tai, don't speak nonsense. Little sister, do not listen to Ling Tai's nonsense, there are people who are better than the Imperial Consort Leng's beautiful face. "

Qin Luo Fei did not know what to say, so she took the brush and taught Ling Tai how to depict mountains and rivers, but in her mind, she felt that this Huan Beauty was a little familiar.
