Gongsun Yun smiled lightly, stepped forward quickly, and took advantage of the situation to hold Shen Zhaoyu's left arm, with an intimate look, no different from her own daughter.
Shen Zhaoyu heard the words, the embarrassment on her face finally disappeared, replaced by the same confidence and calmness as before, she patted the back of Gongsun Yun's hand with her backhand, and said with a light smile, "Got it. Your Majesty sent someone to the Broken Butterfly Pavilion early on." I have passed word, otherwise, this early in the morning, I would not have traveled so far to the Imperial Garden. I have heard that you are coming, Yuner, and that you are as beautiful as a flower. I want to see it first, so I... "
Before she finished speaking, the surrounding concubines sighed.
"So that's it! It turns out that the imperial concubine didn't come here to stop His Majesty from coming. They made an appointment early in the morning, but Concubine Rong sleeps next to His Majesty's pillow every day, but she doesn't seem to know about it..."
"How could Concubine Rong know? You don't even look at her face... Your Majesty is willing to go to Jinxiu Palace to rest, is it because of her stomach? Anyway, if I were Your Majesty, I would definitely not want to tell her the truth..."
"Shh, keep your voice down!"
Among these concubines, there is also Shen Zhaoyu's faction. After all, in the past few months when Shen Zhaoyu ruled the harem, in order to share Concubine Le's favor, he persuaded Emperor Ning to share the rain and dew, and many concubines took advantage of it and gained some benefits. Now that Concubine Rong came back, they were afraid that they would be trampled under their feet again, so they naturally tried their best to support Shen Zhaoyu, hoping that one day, Shen Zhaoyu could move back from Broken Butterfly Pavilion and make a comeback.
The voices of those concubines were neither too loud nor too soft, but they happened to fall into the ears of Shen Zhaoyu and Rong Pingting.
Rong Pingting's face turned pale with anger, because of her pregnancy, she was already heavy, and for a while, she almost lost her balance and fell down.
Shen Zhaoyu stood calmly, with a deeper and deeper smile on his face.
"I haven't heard that His Majesty is coming to the Imperial Garden!" Rong Pingting snorted coldly, "Let's wait... It's best not to let your mother-in-law and daughter-in-law talk to each other!"
"Well, wait." Shen Zhaoyu didn't speak, but Gongsun Yun met Rong Pingting's gaze, with a sneer on his lips.
"The Emperor is here—"
As soon as she finished speaking, Li De'an's slender voice sounded from behind.
Everyone turned around, and a bright yellow robe broke into everyone's sight!
Rong Pingting's face turned pale.
"Look! Your Majesty has really come! Your Majesty has indeed come!"
"Concubine Shen Gui and Princess Yunluo are not lying! They are very calm! Look at that Rong Pingting... tsk tsk tsk, her face is really ugly!"
"Isn't it ugly to watch my man show affection with other women when she is six or seven months pregnant?"
"..."
Before Emperor Ning approached, the concubines started talking again.
Rong Pingting couldn't hold back her face anymore, she wished she could turn around and leave! But she knew that under the current situation, she really couldn't leave... If she left, those idiots would probably think that Rong Pingting really lost to Shen Zhaoyu!
"Your Majesty, my concubine has been waiting for you here for a long time, let's go to Youlongyuan to visit the Eighteenth Prince!" Rong Pingting's eyes lit up, and then she stepped forward with a smile.
When Gongsun Yun saw it, she took the first step and squeezed in front of Emperor Ning and said, "Your Majesty, it was Yunluo and the imperial concubine who made an appointment with you first. Yunluo was taught by her father to specially prepare a dance as a gift for you. Don't you want to inspect the goods on the spot?"
