The most beautiful lady in the harem

Chapter 110 Whose Master

Qingcao didn't care. "The emperor is our master, and Qin Zhaoyi is also a master. How can we distinguish them so clearly? Now that she is sitting in the palace, we can't not give her a share. Besides, everyone in the harem is our master."

Qingcao's understanding is very profound.

Qingzhu didn't have such self-awareness. She snorted coldly, "What's the point of you doing this? Concubine Shu asked us to come here to serve, not to be servants."

What Qingzhu said made sense. What she meant was that Concubine Xin Shu arranged the two of them to be by the emperor's side, and naturally hoped that if they could become Emperor Yongjia's bedmates, it would be icing on the cake.

Then you won’t have to do these serving jobs anymore.

When they become the masters, there will be people to serve them!

Qingzhu has gradually begun to look down on Qingcao's timidity.

Qingzhu thought that Qingcao was being submissive, but Qingcao felt that it was his duty.

She shook her head helplessly. Qingzhu's mentality was just like Sima Zhao's heart, and everyone knew it.

However, there are so many maids in the harem, and many of them really want to be the women of Emperor Yongjia, so Qingzhu's straightforwardness does not seem abrupt.

But Qingcao didn't mean that. She just wanted to serve Emperor Yongjia well.

Regardless of whether he is a saint today, it would be a lie if she didn't feel attracted to such a handsome man as Emperor Yongjia.

When he was in the northwest, Qingcao had seen him cross mountains and ridges with his own eyes, leading his men and shocking the entire audience with his own strength.

When the Ninth Prince first went to the northwest, the soldiers there were not convinced by him. They thought he only had a pretty face and was only relying on his status as a prince. He was handsome on the outside but hollow on the inside.

Fortunately, the Ninth Prince was agile and quick-witted, so he was able to fight against a hundred people alone and tame them.

Qingcao herself was unfortunate to say that she had no admiration for him in her heart, but she was very clear about the distance between herself and Emperor Yongjia, just like the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl on both sides of the Milky Way.

That was an insurmountable gap. Although Concubine Xin Shu wanted to build a magpie bridge for them, Qingcao also understood that this was not an easy road to walk.

Therefore, he has always been obedient and just wanted to quietly protect Emperor Yongjia.

After brewing the tea, Qingcao carried the tray and went to the front. Qingzhu also followed her. Calculating the time, they found that Emperor Yongjia was about to come out.

She felt that she was not as cowardly as Qingcao, who had no aspirations at all.

When they arrived at the main hall in front, Emperor Yongjia had not yet come out of the bathroom, so Qingzhu helped Qingcao to put two pots of tea on the table.

Qingcao glanced at Qin Zhaoyi who was sitting at the table, bowed, and then walked out.

Qingzhu continued to stay in the room and serve.

It was almost time, and the people from the imperial kitchen brought the food over. Qingzhu took the food from the maid and placed the plates of food in front of Qin Liuse.

Qin Liuse glanced at the food on the table. There was beef soup, noodle soup, stir-fried vegetables, and fried fish fillets, all of which were her favorites.

She was already very hungry, so she immediately began to eat voraciously. While she was eating, Emperor Yongjia came out, with water dripping from the tips of his hair.

It was June now, so there was no need to use those stoves to dry Emperor Yongjia's hair, otherwise he would have to go in and take another bath.

So Emperor Yongjia just sat beside and watched Qin Liuse eat.

He loved looking at Qin Liuse, and always felt that she was particularly pleasing to the eye. She did not eat like other concubines, as if she had to eat a bean twice, but she ate with vivid colors and fragrance.

After the meal, Qingzhu brought tea to help Qin Liuse rinse his mouth.

Then, he and Emperor Yongjia moved to the couch in the side room and sat down.

However, Emperor Yongjia had to go to the front to handle state affairs before he could even finish a pot of tea.

There was no one else in the palace, so Qin Liuse naturally would not stay here. Having lunch here was an accident.

He said goodbye to Emperor Yongjia and returned to Shuyuexuan.

As it was still early, Qin Liuse was halfway there when she suddenly remembered that she hadn't seen Concubine Zhang for a long time, so she took a detour with Qingqing and went to her palace to see her.

Concubine Zhang is still in confinement and has a headband tied on her head.

Except for getting up to breastfeed the little prince, Concubine Zhang basically lay in bed all the time, leaving the little prince to be taken care of by other wet nurses. Qin Liuse felt relieved when she saw her rosy face.

Now that this little prince is born, Concubine Zhang has hope for her life again, and she seems to be fully devoted to this son.

Her position was promoted to that of a concubine as early as when she was just pregnant. Emperor Yongjia must have made a plan at that time that he would not give his son to someone else to raise, but would raise him directly by her, his biological mother, so he promoted her to the position of a concubine.

With this position, one can raise children by oneself, and because of giving birth to a prince, one will also have one's own palace.

Emperor Yongjia did ask Qin Liuse if he wanted to move to another palace, but as he was used to living in Shu Yuexuan, Qin Liuse did not want to change for the time being. Perhaps it was because if he moved to another palace, he would be the master of another palace, and there would be more people to take care of, so Qin Liuse did not want to do that for the time being.

Qin Liuse came out of Concubine Zhang's palace, looked up at the sky, and wondered if she also gave birth to a little princess or a little prince or something, would she be able to push the management duties aside like Concubine Ning Shufei did?

But the fact is, she doesn't have any children now, so even if she gets this job, she has to do it every day.

For example, on the second morning, she got up early and went to Concubine Li's Yuxiu Palace.

As soon as Concubine Li sat down, she asked her about what happened yesterday, "I heard that you went to the emperor's place for lunch yesterday, but why did Concubine Shu send the two maids beside her to the emperor for him to use?"

Qin Liuse smiled and said, "I was helping the Queen Mother deliver lotus flowers and lotus leaves to the Emperor. When I arrived there, the Emperor was having lunch. Because Shu Yuexuan had a long way to go, he asked me to stay behind, fearing that I would be late for lunch if I walked back to Shu Yuexuan."

Although Qin Liuse spoke so politely, she was thinking in her heart that since Concubine Li was in power, she was indeed much more well-informed.

Not only did they know that she went to the Yongjia Emperor's palace to have meals, they also knew so quickly that Qingzhu Qingcao went to serve the Yongjia Emperor.

Concubine Li nodded and said, "I heard that Miss Qingzhu knows a little about medicine, and that Miss Qingcao can make a good pot of tea. This Miss Bamboo and Miss Grass can do everything."

Qin Liuse was amused by the sarcastic tone, but she just smiled slightly.

Concubine Li Xian probably had some disagreements with Concubine Xin Shu.

After all, the two of them were among the four concubines and were in charge of their own affairs. Concubine Li was not as careless as Concubine Ning, nor was she as indifferent as Concubine Xiao De, nor was she as virtuous as the previous Concubine Li.

So it was reasonable for her to care about these things. As the two were talking, the palace lady from the Sixth Palace came in to report the affairs of the palace to Concubine Li.
