The cold night wind blew across the open canal, blowing slowly on Yun Zuizhen's body. The dew wet her thin clothes, and she constantly jumped up and down in the small garden. She circled around, reaching out with her hands to catch those mischievous fireflies, placing them in bags one by one.
The loose, half-draped black hair curled in the night sky, and the pale yellow snow-shirt and fireflies matched each other's interest.
At this moment, a man in a long robe wearing black and gold embroidered clothing was slowly walking over. His footsteps were so light that Nian Yun Chen was busy catching fireflies and did not notice that someone was already approaching.
Feng Hailin hid behind a pillar on the long corridor, looking at the girl who was skipping and capturing fireflies in front of him.
Lightly opening her lips, she muttered, "Leng Yunsheng?" Why is she here? "
Feng Hailin happened to have taken a fancy to the scenery of this place. Since it was close to the drainage system and no one would be interested in visiting this place, he would often come here to train.
Last night, when he was feeling depressed, he let Chen Yuerong dance with him. He discovered that the beautiful fireflies were dancing with her like a fairy descending to the mortal world. He also remembered that Chen Yuerong had come to perform for him while bearing the pain of her injuries.
It was from watching the fireflies dance that he got excited tonight. He thought of the fireflies in the small park and wanted to take a look at them while he practiced.
He never expected to see Leng Yunsheng?
At that moment, under the moonlight, Leng Yunsheng was purely capturing fireflies. Looking at her natural actions, she had actually... Feng Haolin's heart of a young girl ..
Could Chen Yuerong's firefly dance idea be hers? And this bug was caught by her in the middle of the night?
Why didn't she dance with Leng Yunsheng herself?
It had to be known that he was bestowed the title of imperial concubine because of Chen Yuerong's dance.
And from the moment Leng Yunesheng entered the palace, it was as though she had always provoked his ire. Did he loathe the thought of making a fool of himself?
Why? He was clearly the most respected man in the country of Dongze. He had the supreme status of power and money. Furthermore, he boasted that he had an extraordinary appearance. How many girls wanted to stay by his side, yet this Leng Yunesheng made him hate her?
The point was that he had never really hated her for her slovenly appearance.
Shaking his head helplessly, Feng Hailin found a seat and sat down. He only watched as long as Leng Yunsheng caught the fireflies.
Until Leng Yunsheng brought the firefly back.
He also returned to the Imperial Garden that he had agreed to meet with Imperial Concubine Chen.
Watching Chen Yuerong dance.
The fireflies were released. A beautiful melody resounded, accompanied by Chen Yuerong's beautiful dance. She was truly beautiful. Chen Yuerong was plump, beautiful, and a trace of elegance could be seen in her flirtatiousness. Her snow-white skin looked even more delicate and tender under the moonlight.
For some reason, as Feng Hailin's eyes stared, his mind constantly overlapped the images of Chen Yuerong and Leng Yunsheng capturing the fireflies.
In contrast, Leng Yunesheng's casual clothes fluttered in the wind. Her snow-white clothes and light footsteps made her seem much more relaxed and comfortable compared to Chen Yuerong's pretentious manner.
'She's so willing to marry me? ' Was she not interested in him?
Since he was young, it seemed like Feng Hailin had never found a woman who was not interested in him. Leng Yunsheng was the first.
"Stop, there's no need to jump. Imperial Concubine Chen must have had a hard time too. Go back and rest." Feng Hailin was cold.
With that, he took Eunuch Chen away.
"Your Majesty .." Chen Yuerong, who was in the middle of dancing, suddenly stopped as she looked in astonishment at the departing figure of Feng Hailin.
However, Feng Hailin was very decisive in his departure. He didn't even give her the chance to say another word.
She was even a little anxious as she looked at her body in panic. She didn't know what had gone wrong.
Why was the emperor watching everything last night, and why was he so reluctant to watch it again today, exactly because this dance had sealed off her imperial concubine?
Why did he suddenly dislike it?
She could tell from that glance from the Emperor just now that he was clearly disgusted by her name.
After returning home, Chen Yuerong received a message from Eunuch Chen — the empress had just died, it was not appropriate to arrange such a large event in the palace. Thus, the ceremony of bestowing imperial concubine was forgiven.
Having received the news, Chen Yuerong felt as if a big plate of cold water had been poured over her head. She boldly asked, "Eunuch Chen, then .." "What about the sleeping arrangements?"
Although she was a brothel girl, Chen Yuerong did not sell herself to be a prostitute. She was still a virgin after all.
Although there was no ceremony to bestow the title, she was still the imperial concubine of the Eastern Swamp Kingdom. If she could serve the emperor, then her position in the harem would be consolidated. Currently, she was the first in the harem!
Eunuch Chen cast a cold glance at Imperial Concubine Chen, a smile that didn't reach his eyes. "Imperial Concubine, this is a matter for the emperor. The emperor expresses his satisfaction, and this servant doesn't dare speak carelessly."
Leaving behind this nonsense, Eunuch Chen shook the floating weight on his arm and left.
The eunuchs and maids kneeling in the Main Hall all felt as if they were in a dream? She clearly thought that once she ascended to the heavens, she would be able to serve by the side of the harem's most beloved concubine.
But looking at the formation now? It seemed like .. It had only been a day for the emperor, but he didn't even have the time to let Imperial Concubine Chen sleep with him. He already liked the new and hated the old?
Eunuch Chen was the emperor's favorite person, and his attitude usually represented the emperor's attitude. Now that Eunuch Chen's expression was so cold, it meant that the emperor didn't like imperial concubines either. It seemed that from now on, their lives would be either good or bad, and it would be a mystery for the time being.
Chen Yuerong's chest was rising and falling. She closed her eyes and opened them again, as if trying to force something down. She struggled to stand up, but her body swayed and she almost fell when she stood up.
The palace maid by his side hurriedly supported him. "Empress, what's wrong?"
"No, nothing." Chen Yuerong stood up in a daze and walked into the room. At this moment, Nian Yun had just finished bathing and was lying on the bed reading a book.
After catching the fireflies for an entire night, she was almost dead from exhaustion. Now that she had run to take a bath, it was extremely comfortable for her to lie down on her bed and rest.
Seeing Chen Yuerong return so quickly? She was really surprised and asked in surprise, "Sister Yuerong? Aren't you supposed to dance for the Emperor at the Bridge of the Phoenix? Why are you back? "
"Sister!" Chen Yuerong's tears immediately surged out and fell powerlessly into Nian Yun Chen's arms, her tears turning into tears.
When the servants were there, no matter how sad she was, she had to maintain the noble concubine's demeanor and stabilize the servants' hearts. If they saw her in such a state of grief, they wouldn't have any confidence in her, so they might not be able to properly attend to her.
However, there was only her and her sister in the room. She vented out all the grievances she had just suffered.
Nian Yun gnashed his teeth. Through Chen Yuerong's words, she was even more certain that Feng Hailin was a real scumbag!
When she saw Feng Hailin's attitude towards the empress before, she already felt loathing towards him, and now, it seemed that she was even more disgusted with him!
"Elder sister, I'll find this bastard to judge for you! Why must such a good sister of mine be humiliated like this! " As he spoke, Nian Yun was about to charge out.
