Chapter 40 Beauty Zheng

After the noble concubine said this, the new concubines who entered the palace naturally couldn't say bad things.

Cui Jieyu was the first to stand up and salute the imperial concubine, "Jieyu Cui, I have met the imperial concubine."

The imperial concubine nodded and looked at Weng Jieyu again. Weng Jieyu still had a cold and arrogant face, "Jieyu, Mr. Weng, I have met the imperial concubine."

The same words, when Weng Jieyu said them expressionlessly, had a hint of condescension.

The imperial concubine narrowed her eyes slightly and said suddenly, "So you are Weng Jieyu. You are quite good-looking, but with such a temper, it's no wonder..."

No wonder the imperial concubine didn't continue to say something, but everyone present understood what the imperial concubine had left to say.

No wonder the emperor only pampered her for five days and then abandoned her.

Weng Jieyu's face changed slightly, and she wanted to open her mouth to sneer back, but she clenched her fists and finally endured it, lowered her head and said nothing.

The imperial concubine snorted and looked at Beauty Zheng next to her.

Beauty Zheng took a step forward, lowered her hands to cover her eyes, saluted respectfully, and said: "My concubine, the beautiful Lady Zheng, I have met the noble concubine."

"Zheng Meiren?" The imperial concubine repeated softly, and then said: "Raise your head and let me take a look."

Zheng Meiren obeyed and raised her head.

Although Zheng Meiren is not the kind of appearance that makes people feel stunning at first sight, she is the kind of appearance that can easily arouse the pity of men.

With a small face as big as a palm, a pointed chin, thin eyebrows, watery eyes, a straight and beautiful nose, plus a pair of small cherry lips and a slender figure that looks like it will fall over if the wind blows, it is simply stunning.

I worry that if I speak a little louder, I might startle her.

Although Wen Zhaoyi and Xu Jieyu are also beautiful girls selected by Jiangnan, they are really not enough to be seen together with Zheng Meiren.

The imperial concubine clicked her tongue twice and said, "What a wonderful look I feel pity for."

"My concubine... my concubine..." Zheng Meiren looked at the imperial concubine with a confused expression, her big watery eyes as if they were about to overflow at any moment.

The imperial concubine snorted coldly, "Business girls are indeed uneducated. Put away your flirtatious behavior and keep it for the emperor. I will not accept your tricks."

Zheng Meiren is the adopted daughter of the Zheng family, a wealthy merchant in Jiangnan. In recent years, the Zheng family has been competing with the Xie family, who are also wealthy in Jiangnan, for the title of imperial merchant.

This time, the Zheng family spent a lot of effort to send their adopted daughter to the palace. Now that Beauty Zheng is favored again, I think the title of Royal Merchant will fall on the Zheng family.

But compared to the background of the concubines in the palace, the background of Zheng Meiren, the adopted daughter of a merchant, is indeed not good enough. Not to mention compared with the noble concubine, even Wen Zhaoyi, a common concubine, cannot be compared with Zheng Meiren.

"Concubine...I don't have any concubine." Tears filled Zheng Meiren's eyelashes.

The imperial concubine was annoyed when she looked like this. Just as she was about to scold her a few more times, the imperial concubine who had left turned back and interrupted: "My dear concubine, isn't it because the emperor went to Zheng Meiren's place last night and did not go to you?"

Zhaoyang Palace? If you are dissatisfied, you can go to the emperor, why bother embarrassing a little beauty here?"

The imperial concubine glared at Concubine Jing and said angrily: "I am teaching a low-ranking concubine who is ignorant, but you also want to take care of me?"

Concubine Jing sneered and said: "You are a first-class concubine, and my sister is only a second-class concubine. How dare I care about you? My sister is just looking at Zheng Meiren's pity and trying to be fair. If my sister thinks that I am too talkative,

Concubine, just shut up."

"So, Concubine Jing, you still know how talkative you are!" The concubine sneered.

Concubine Jing said: "My sister has always been self-aware."

Although Concubine Jing did not shut up, after her interruption, Concubine Jing could not continue to embarrass Zheng Meiren. She snorted coldly and said to the red note: "Go back to the palace."

"Yes, empress." Hong Jian gestured to the little eunuchs who were carrying the sedan chair, and the little eunuchs steadily lifted the sedan chair and drove them away.

After the noble concubine left, Zheng Meiren walked up to the concubine Jing softly and thanked her: "Thank you very much, concubine Jing."

Concubine Jing shook her head nonchalantly and said, "It's just a small matter. Your Majesty the Concubine has never been easy to get along with. I'd better avoid you next time I meet you."

Zheng Meiren said gratefully: "I understand, I would like to thank you, Concubine Jing, for your advice."

Concubine Jing waved her hand and said: "Okay, no need to be so polite, go back early."

After saying that, Concubine Jing also drove away in a sedan chair.

Hui Bin murmured: "She knows how to pretend to be a good person." and left.

An Bin was not a lively person and had left long ago.

Seeing Wen Zhaoyi, Xu Jieyu and other people who had seen enough of the excitement, they all turned around and left. Lu Wanning didn't stay too long, and quietly left with Qingzhi and Qingdai.

What happened at the gate of Fengyi Palace soon reached Luo Chengjing's ears. After hearing this, Luo Chengjing was silent for a moment and said to Lian Yongwang: "If I remember correctly, there seems to be one of the tributes just sent two days ago.

A good jasper bracelet?"

Lian Yongwang nodded, "Your Majesty remembers correctly. There is indeed a pair of fine jasper bracelets. I have already ordered them to be put into the treasury."

Among the tributes sent in the past two days were not only a pair of fine jasper bracelets, but also a pair of fine mutton-fat white jade bracelets and a pair of jade bracelets.

Luo Chengjing said: "Zheng Meiren has been wronged today, so give her the pair of jasper bracelets as a reward."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Lian Yongwang responded and went down to make arrangements.

The imperial concubine made things difficult for Zheng Meiren at the gate of Fengyi Palace. The emperor felt that Zheng Meiren had been wronged, so he turned around and rewarded Zheng Meiren with a pair of jasper bracelets. The news spread in the palace at noon, like a look with wings.

After hearing the news, everyone in the harem had a new understanding of how favored Zheng Meiren was now.

In Fengyi Palace, after hearing this, the queen smiled slightly and continued to ask about the prince's homework.

In Zhaoyang Palace, when the imperial concubine heard this, she accidentally broke the blue and white porcelain bowl in her hand.

In Linglong Pavilion, after Lu Wanning heard it, she continued to discuss the birthday gift for the Queen Mother with Qingzhi and Qingdai as if she had not heard it.

She has only been in the palace for a short time, and apart from the routine rewards she received when she was named a beauty and the thank-you gifts sent by her previous concubines, there are only things she brought from outside the palace, although those things are still exquisite and valuable.

, but as a birthday gift to the Queen Mother, it’s still a bit bad.

Lu Wanning, Qingzhi, and Qingdai rummaged through everything in the library, but couldn't find anything satisfactory.

"How can this be good?" Qingzhi said worriedly: "The Queen Mother's birthday is on the eighth day of August, and there are only forty days left. Even if Master asks your family to help prepare now, I'm afraid she won't be able to find her in such a short time.

What a good thing."

Qing Dai suggested, "Why don't you, Master, give the facial cleansing fragrance and body purifying fragrance that you made according to ancient recipes as a birthday gift to the Queen Mother? I think the Queen Mother will like this kind of thing that can beautify the face."
