Shaohua is Junqing

Chapter 216 Extra

Three days after the wedding, Siyu went to the palace to thank the emperor and the empress dowager, and then came to Xinxueyuan in Changchun Palace.

"Bang So-won."

"Your Highness greets the Imperial Aunt."

"No need to pay tribute."

Siyu winked, and Fang Qingyan immediately understood and sent away the maids around her, "You guys go down."

"Your word 'imperial aunt' really scared me. I felt a lot older all of a sudden."

"The Imperial Aunt is now the Princess of Chen, so you should call her that."

"That's true, but this imperial aunt is almost calling me auntie, I don't like it. Although I am the Princess of Chen now, my title of 'Princess Shaohua' is still there. They all call me 'Princess Princess', which I think is not bad. You can call me that, but in private I still like to call you Sister Fang, and you call me Sister Yu."

"No problem, Sister Yu."

"Sister Fang."

"Why are you here today?"

"I went to the palace today to thank the Emperor and the Queen Mother, and came to see you after I was done."

"Everything is fine here."

"Why do you keep looking at me?"

"It's different now that I'm married."

"I'm still me, what's the difference?"

"First of all, the way they dress is different from before. In the past, they dressed like girls, but now they wear their hair in a bun, and the style and pattern of their clothes are also different from before."

"Are you saying I'm old?"

"No, I mean you're more mature and more charming."

"Ah, it's so sudden to go from a girl to a young woman overnight!"

"You're still as beautiful as ever!"

"That's right." Siyu looked proud. "I think the weather is nice today. Let's go for a walk in the Imperial Garden. It's not good to stay stuck in the house all the time." Siyu suggested.

"Okay, let's go."

The two came to the Imperial Garden, enjoying the flowers and the scenery while chatting.

"Sister Zhaoyuan." A gentle and charming voice came from behind, and Siyu's scalp tingled.

The two turned around and saw a woman in colorful clothes and heavy makeup walking towards them. She had a graceful figure. Siyu couldn't help but hold her forehead when she saw her. If it weren't for the bright clothes and heavy makeup, she would have been considered a beauty.

"Greetings to Fang Zhaoyuan."

"No need to be polite."

"Who is this…"

"Greetings to Her Majesty Princess Chen. My name is Xu Linghe, the daughter of Lord Xu, the doctor of the Ministry of Revenue. I was selected to enter the palace and was given the title of Concubine."

"Xu Jieyu, she entered the palace through the selection. I was the chief examiner at that time. I don't remember Xu Jieyu anymore."

"Your Highness Princess has a lot to do, it's not surprising that you don't remember."

"Is Concubine Xu also here to visit the garden?"

"Yes, I saw that the weather was good today, so I went out for a walk. I didn't expect that by chance, I met the Princess and Sister Zhaoyuan here."

"It's quite a coincidence." Xu Linghe kept speaking in a very coquettish voice. Siyu almost vomited after hearing it and just wanted to leave quickly. "Then Concubine Xu, enjoy the garden. We'll leave first."

"Don't be in such a hurry to leave, Princess. Sister Zhaoyuan likes to stay in her palace and fiddle with flowers and plants. She rarely goes out. I don't have many opportunities to see her. I have always wanted to ask Sister Zhaoyuan for advice on how to please His Majesty."

"Jieyi Xu is pretty and has graceful dancing skills. Your Majesty has always liked her. Why does she need to ask me for advice?" Fang Qingyan, who had been silent all this time, spoke at this moment, and her tone was obviously not very friendly.

"Why not? Your Majesty often mentions my sister in front of me, saying that my sister is gentle and virtuous, knowledgeable and well-mannered, and has great literary talent. But I can only dance and sing to entertain Your Majesty. Compared with my sister, I feel ashamed."

"Everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses. Concubine Xu does not need to belittle herself. As long as you serve His Majesty well and His Majesty is happy, that's all."

"Sister is right. Oh, by the way, His Majesty said he would come to watch me dance. I have to go practice dancing now. I will take my leave."

This Concubine Xu is really good at making tea! Siyu thought to herself.

"Finally she left. I got goosebumps all over my body when I heard her talk. It was so uncomfortable."

"She's always like this. Sister Yu, don't bother with her. Let's go sit in the pavilion in front."
