  Chapter 197 198: Isn't this a sudden disaster?

  The palace is no more than the imperial palace, the space is limited, and there is room for the courtiers, so even the concubines live together in twos and threes.

  The queen mother naturally occupies the first palace, and the third concubine will not live with others. Yun Zhao is pregnant and the emperor specially chose a clean place for her to live close to the front hall. Others are not so lucky and can only live together.

  Although Song Yunzhao was well prepared, the journey was indeed not easy. Feng Yi was worried about her, and the imperial physician would check her pulse every day. Even so, her complexion was worse than when she was in the palace.

  When I arrived at the palace, I fell asleep and didn't care whether the queen mother went to pay her respects or not.

   When she woke up, she found out that several people from Han Jinyi had been there, and left after knowing that she had fallen asleep.

  After taking a bath and changing clothes, he felt much more comfortable. Song Yunzhao sat in front of the window to cool off, took a sip of the bird's nest soup, and listened to Xiangxue and the others talking about the palace.

   "I haven't seen anyone from the Empress Dowager's side, so don't worry, Master. The Empress Dowager said that everyone should settle down today, and we will talk about the matter of asking for peace tomorrow." Shi Zhu said.

  As soon as Shi Zhu's voice fell, Anshun walked in quickly, stepped forward and saluted, and said: "Master, the Queen Mother is hosting a banquet tonight, please come to the banquet on time."

  Song Yunzhao was taken aback, "A banquet tonight?"

  Anshun nodded, "Yes."

  Xiangxue also frowned tightly, "Didn't you say that the Empress Dowager is going to rest today?"

   "I don't know the specifics, but the Queen Mother handed over the words. Otherwise, the slaves will just inquire about it." Anshun said hurriedly.

  Shi Zhu's face was pitch-black, "Master is pregnant, and the journey has been exhausting. How can the body bear it if the Empress Dowager hosts a banquet and requires the master to attend?"

  Song Yunzhao also felt a headache. The rules of the palace were much looser than that of the imperial palace. There was no curfew, and there were not so many rules and regulations. Moreover, the palace specially built by the late emperor was for eating, drinking and having fun. Needless to say, Song Yunzhao could have imagined that during the few months of summer vacation, the Queen Mother would definitely not stop.

  The first emperor went to Beijing every year to escape the summer heat. Although the queen mother was not favored at that time, she could sometimes come with her. She was used to the luxurious enjoyment of the late emperor. Now it is her turn to make decisions, so she naturally chooses how comfortable she is.

   Tut.

trouble.

  Song Yunzhao looked at Anshun, "Go to Zhang Maoquan and tell him that the Empress Dowager asked me to go to the banquet. I dare not disobey the Queen Mother's order and go to the banquet as promised."

  Anshun immediately understood what the master meant, and walked out, saying, "I will go now, slave."

  Song Yunzhao looked at the sky and began to change clothes and comb his hair. When he was done tidying up, the time would come, so he got up to go to the banquet.

  Palace guides were waiting outside. When they saw Song Yunzhao coming out, they immediately stepped forward to salute and lead the way. They kept introducing the scenery of the palace along the way. The palace was built on the hillside, with a view at five steps and a pavilion at ten steps.

   "There is a spring on the back mountain, and there is a large pasture at the foot of the mountain. If Master Zhaoyi is interested, you can go and have a look."

  Song Yunzhao nodded slightly, she can't soak in the hot spring now, did she go to the pasture to watch others ride horses?

   Not interested either.

  There is an artificial lake where the Empress Dowager lives, with lotus flowers blooming in the lake, and boats shuttle back and forth on the lake. Not far from the shore of the lake is the Empress Dowager’s palace, with magnificent cornices and brackets.

  Song Yunzhao glanced up, and the corner of her mouth curled slightly, she knew that the Queen Mother would definitely choose this place.

  In the book, this place used to be the place where the late emperor's empress came to live in the palace, and it was the empress dowager's obsession.

  It was almost clicked. When she arrived in the hall, it was already bustling. She raised her foot to enter the door, and saw not only the concubines, but also many wives. Everyone had cheerful smiles on their faces. There was also a table in the hall.

  As soon as Song Yunzhao entered the door, the excitement in the hall could not help but stop. Everyone's eyes fell on her instantly. Except for the third concubine, everyone else got up to greet her.

  Song Yunzhao's thoughts turned quickly, but he said: "There is no need to be restrained, everyone just continue to play." As he spoke, Song Yunzhao stepped forward to greet the third concubine.

   Concubine Zhuang was about to speak, but she heard Concubine Shu speak first: "Why are you here too? With an heir in your belly, you still put your body first."

  The smile on Concubine Zhuang's face froze.

  Concubine Wan also turned her head to glance at Concubine Shu, and then turned her head to look at Song Yunzhao. Song Yunzhao's complexion was indeed not very good. This long journey is not an easy task for a pregnant woman.

  However, Concubine Wan didn't say anything, neither embarrassing nor speaking for it.

  Song Yunzhao didn't seem to see the expressions of Concubine Zhuang and Concubine Wan, and said to Concubine Shu with a smile: "Thank you, Concubine Shu, for your concern. The Empress Dowager hosted a banquet, and she specially asked someone to pass a message to the concubine. Naturally, the concubine will come."

  As soon as this remark came out, the hall fell silent again.

  Concubine Shu felt that she had always dared to speak, but Song Yunzhao dared to speak more than she did.

   This clearly means that the queen mother has bad intentions.

  Concubine Shu didn't like the Queen Mother either, so she didn't intend to help the Queen Mother at all, and said directly: "Sit down and rest quickly, look at your pale face, if you feel unwell, go back and rest, I think the Empress Dowager won't embarrass you if she knows about it."

  Song Yunzhao was a little surprised that Concubine Shu thought of her so much, thanked her with a smile, and took her seat.

  Her seat is second only to the third concubine, but next to her is the annoying concubine Zhuang, which is really not a pleasant thing.

  While Song Yunzhao was talking to the third concubine, the chess game over there also broke up one after another, everyone returned to their positions, and the wives of each family seemed to have become the dignified and virtuous ladies of the past.

  Song Yunzhao thought to herself that she wasn't a gambler. Look at the trouble. She didn't do anything when she came here, and she messed up other people's affairs. If word of this got out, her domineering reputation would be further improved.

   Isn't this unexpected disaster?

   Just thinking about it, someone in the palace shouted, "The Empress Dowager is here!"

  Everyone stood up and saluted.

  The queen mother walked out holding An Shutong's hand, with a kind smile on her face, "Excuse me, everyone sit down."

  Everyone thanked and took their seats.

  Song Yunzhao glanced at An Shutong calmly, thinking that the Queen Mother still doesn't give up, this is why An Shutong must enter the palace, looking at An Shutong's expression, he can't tell anything, yes, after all, she is a heavyweight female supporting role in the book, her IQ is super online, if she hadn't been cheated by the Queen Mother last time, she would not have left the palace so embarrassingly.

  Although the queen mother made decent excuses, everyone has a scale in their hearts about the truth.

  The Empress Dowager ordered the banquet to begin, and in an instant, silk and bamboo came in bursts. The singers and dancers took turns taking turns, and it was very noisy. Song Yunzhao was tired from the journey, so he ate the dinner quite patiently.

   The second update is over, my little cuties.
