"Empress." At this time, a palace maid came in and reported, "Madam Xu from Qingluan Palace is looking for a meeting."

"What are she here to do?" The queen frowned slightly.

Madam Li said, "Empress, it is probably the imperial concubine who heard about Miss Nian entering the palace. She wanted to invite Miss Nian to go to Qingluan Palace to sit."

When the queen heard this, her face turned a little cold, "Go and tell her that I want to keep Ruyi in Qifeng Palace for dinner, and I don't have time to go to Qingluan Palace."

When Nian Ruyi heard this, she said, "Empress, when the young lady came, the emperor asked the young lady to pay tribute to the imperial concubine. At that time, Madam Li was there and heard it."

"Go back to the queen, the emperor did have any advice." Madam Li interjected.

The queen froze all over, but soon she sighed again, "Oh, forgot, don't let Madam Xu come in, Ruyi, you can go to Qingluan Palace with Madam Xu, come to Qifeng Palace to have meals in the evening. After using the meal, I will send someone to take you back."

"Empress, the Elder Princess came with the young lady." She stayed in Qifeng Palace for dinner, what should the Elder Princess do?

It's hard to let her go back alone, right?

The queen smiled bitterly, "It seems that it is not suitable to keep you for dinner today, so I won't keep you anymore. Next time you enter the palace, let's have dinner with me."

"Yes, Empress, that woman surrendered."

Finally leaving Qifeng Palace, Nian Ruyi breathed a sigh of relief. However, when she saw an old lady waiting at the gate of Qifeng Palace, Nian Ruyi's heart was raised again.

However, after seeing the ninth prince in Qingluan Palace, Nian Ruyi's originally nervous heart immediately relieved. She smiled and said, "Nian Ruyi, a girl from the folk, please pay tribute to the Empress and the Ninth prince."

"No need to be polite, get up quickly."

The imperial concubine actually stood up and came to help Nian Ruyi in person.

She smiled kindly, "I heard from Xiaojiu that he was assassinated and was chased to Wuzhi Peak along the way. You saved his life in time. You are Xiaojiu's life savior, that is, my life savior. You don't have to be polite in front of us two."

He pulled Nian Ruyi intimately, sat down beside him, and said, "I heard that you are here, so I specially sent someone to the imperial kitchen and ordered a few dishes of pastries. I don't know if you like sweets."

As he said that, the imperial concubine also twisted a piece of hibiscus cake and handed it to her.

Nian Ruyi then noticed that there was a pot of soaked tea, six dishes of pastries, four dishes of dried fruit, and a large plate of cut fruit slices on the table.

A full table was placed.

Nian Ruyi instantly felt the intention and sincerity of the imperial concubine. She took the furong cake, took a bite, and smiled, "It melts in the mouth, soft, sweet, and has a fragrance left on her teeth. The pastries in the palace are indeed much better than the pastries sold outside. The folk girl can eat them today, and it is all the blessing of the Empress."

"Xiao Jiu can still live and call me Mother's Mother. I have borrowed your blessing." The imperial concubine's eyes were a little red, and her voice was slightly choked, "I am the only son of Xiao Jiu. If he has something, I can't survive. You not only saved Xiao Jiu's life, but also saved my life."

Nian Ruyi was a little surprised by being regarded as a benefactor by the dignified concubine, but soon felt that the imperial concubine was only two or three years younger than the queen, but she was favored by the emperor. Until now, she still has a glory and favor. It is not unreasonable.
