The group favors the little queen, my dad is the big villain!

Chen Luo grabbed Chu Zhaozhao's front legs and walked into Ci'an Palace. Aunt Wei who was seeing off the guests behind immediately ordered the door to be closed.

Chu Zhaozhao glanced at the closed door behind him in confusion, and sighed, "Aunt Bai hasn't followed me yet!"

"Don't worry, Madam. Aunt Bai is here with me. I will send her back later." Aunt Wei's voice came from inside.

After finally getting the chance, it was natural to let the two "children" speak clearly.

Aunt Wei thought so and put her ear against the door uncontrollably.

Outside, Chen Luo snorted softly and started to walk away. However, he stopped after just a few steps.

"Aren't you leaving?" He looked at the stunned little girl.

Chu Zhaozhao's mind was racing rapidly. He thought about the conversation in Ci'an Palace for half a day, but he still couldn't figure out why the emperor's little brother changed his face again after it came out.

She didn't understand, she didn't understand, but she still thought it was good to keep up.

"Let's go!" Chu Zhaozhao walked a few steps to his side, raised his head and bared his teeth, showing a standard smile.

Chen Luo looked at the little face in front of him and sighed.

How angry has he been these past few days?

Could it be that this little girl said she was as important as Concubine Chen and others?

It's just as important that he doesn't want to hear it.

But I want this little girl to say that she is more important...

"Ahem." Chen Luo put his fist against his mouth and pretended to speak unintentionally, "I haven't slept well for several days."

"Are there a lot of discounts recently?" Chu Zhaozhao answered quickly.

Her attitude was very serious, and she was really not perfunctory at all. She even turned to look at his face when she spoke.

Chen Luo wanted to shake his head, but somehow he nodded again.

"There are so many, I can't even see them."

The little girl sighed very seriously, "Oh, even so, you still have to pay attention to your health."

Standard, polite and very official answer.

Chu Zhaozhao even pursed his lips and nodded.

Chen Luo glanced at her expressionlessly. These days, he was so hungry, thirsty, and sleepy...

"Little brother!" Chu Zhaozhao suddenly looked up at him, his eyes full of doubts.

"Huh?" Chen Luo's face remained unchanged, but his heart was filled with joy, "Say."

"If there is a talent show, can we select some beauties to enter the palace?" Chu Zhaozhao clasped his hands together and suddenly acted coquettishly, "Brother, is that okay?"

“!!!!”

Chen Luo holds his breath!

Yuqiongxuan.

Xu Yingzheng stood respectfully at the door of the house, holding a letter in his hand and his usual smile on his face.

"Jade concubine, the servant who came to deliver the letter happened to have a stomachache on the way, so I just happened to bring it to you." Xu Ying said with a smile.

The concubine did not react much and asked someone to take the letter.

She stood at the door of the house, opened the letter with bare hands, and raised the corners of her mouth after looking at it.

"Xiao Ying, serve tea to Eunuch Xu." Concubine Jade raised her hand and said with a smile.

Xu Ying stood bent over and couldn't help but cursed in her heart. She was leaving him here to hang out...

Of course it wasn't the messenger slave who had a stomach ache just now, but he just wanted to ask for a reward.

The dignified harem manager sneaks in to steal the young eunuch's job.

He is truly the most frustrated harem manager.

Xu Ying gritted her teeth. The concubines in this palace were surprisingly harmonious. They were like a rope, and there was not even a hint of intrigue.

In this case, no one would win over him as the general manager... let alone reward him with a lot of money.

As for the filial piety of the people below.

An Liu, who is also the manager of the harem, is a bastard who never accepts anything delivered to his door. He only focuses on doing things and not recognizing anyone, so he doesn't dare to mess around in private.

Just as she lowered her head and thought angrily, Xu Ying was tapped on the shoulder.

The palace maid Xiao Ying looked at him and said, "Eunuch Xu, please come in and have a sip of tea before leaving."

Xu Ying raised her hand and patted her clothes, smiled again and bent down, "Thank you for your kindness, Lady Jade, but I have other things to do..."

As he said this, a heavy purse was stuffed into his hand.

Xu Ying couldn't help but feel happy.

Not running in vain!

"Thank you, Concubine Jade. Thank you, Concubine Jade!" Xu Ying quickly thanked her.

Watching Xu Ying leave happily, Xiaoying walked to Jade Concubine's side in a few steps and whispered.

"It's only ten taels of silver, and it can make the palace manager so happy. It can be seen that the people in the palace have become more and more dissatisfied since the queen took charge."

Being dissatisfied means that there is no more money to be made...

Even Xu Ying is like this, let alone the people below.

"Ten taels of silver is quite a lot. It is the annual expenses of ordinary people's families." Jade Concubine said casually.

When studying in the Imperial College, even if she is a concubine in the palace, she still needs to know the market price.

Jade Concubine took out the letter in her hand and looked at it again.

"Mother, is this a letter from the master?" Xiao Ying was a little curious.

"No." Concubine Jade shook her head, "It belongs to a friend."

After saying that, she walked up to the house.

Xiao Ying followed behind, her words a little excited, "Have you made friends in the Imperial College?"

She is a slave from home and has served the concubine since she was a child. She knows her character very well.

To be friends with your own mother-in-law, you must not be a simple person.

"She is the number one scholar in our class." There was an indescribable sourness in Jade Concubine's tone, "She is the first in the class every time she takes the exam."

Everyone in the Imperial College said that there have been three particularly outstanding figures in the past few years.

One is Concubine Chen who became a female concubine.

One is a young queen.

One is...Ziyao this week.

The three of them are talented in civil, cavalry and martial arts, and their names will always be at the top of the list of top picks.

Just like Princess Mingjia has always been overwhelmed by Chu Zhaozhao, she was pinned down by Zhou Ziyao. No matter how hard she tried, she never surpassed her once in five years.

"So what if the first place comes first? You are the concubine of Dasheng Kingdom, she is just a girl from outside." Xiaoying immediately heard the underlying meaning of her words and hurriedly advised her.

"Do you know who her grandfather is?" Jade Concubine put down the letter in her hand.

Without waiting for a small greeting, she said quietly, "This is Zhou Zhong, the Minister of Punishment, who is the second rank of the imperial court. Unlike me, my father has worked hard for more than ten years, but now he is only the fifth rank."

"Will this Miss Zhou enter the palace?" Xiaoying also became worried.

Jade Concubine hesitated for a moment. She looked at the letter in her hand in a daze for a while, and finally frowned.

She didn't know whether this girl Zhou would enter the palace.

It's possible.

If she enters the palace, she must be a concubine or above.

"Then what will the girl write to the empress this week?" Xiao Ying asked a little cautiously, for fear of poking her lungs.

My mother-in-law seems to have no temper, but she is very scary when she gets angry in her own palace.

But Jade Concubine was in a better mood now, and her tone was a little brisk.

"Maybe she wants to make friends with me. She has said a lot to me in the past few days."
