As Kin Hua Jing was kicked out, Kin Fie made an upset expression. Whether yes or no, Kin Fie was Emperor Jing's favourite, how could he make his beloved look like this?
But, who knew that this was not going to work on the emperor. Even when Princess Jing Li made dissatisfied expression, neither Jing Yang nor Emperor Jing Qin bat an eye.
' What the hell is going? Why is everything so messed ? Isn't she beloved, so why is the emperor not giving her face? For a father and brother, this haughty princess is sad, but they have not done anything? ', Jin Mu came to this realisation.
In the entertainment that she had found when Kin Hua Jing was kicked out, she forgot the main aspects.
But she soon received her lack as being personal maid of Princess Ling Siyue, and impersonator of the princess, she had been very familiar to the schemes.
She did not find the main palace of Emperor Ling in Yanfou much troublesome as there was only the princess's mother, so the internal court schemes were not there. As a result, she believed that the palace of the emperor to be the most safest.
But how could she forget that now she was in Binhai. Here, the emperor had a large harem.
A realisation struck her, ' That's why she said that we were going to the hell and hall of schemes and ruthlessness.'
Jin Mu turned to look at the man in the phoenix robes, ' He is indeed ruthless.' But, more to her shock, she did not know what to do?Everything that was happening was confusing her.
She prayed for heaven's to pity her and bring her out of this palace as soon as possible. All this while, the emperor and the prince was noticing her.
' Sure, this girl is lacking. ', Both thought at the same time.
Suddenly, they heard two women drenched in something liquid came rushing in the courtyard hurriedly.
" Your highness, help us.", one of them said.
" Your highness, someone questioned our dignity. ", other one said.
Both came running and were panting heavily. They were followed by their servants. They pushed the guards and entered the main hall.
They were Concubine Wang and Concubine Hao. Both were middle rank concubines of the emperor without a child. Both of them had been the concubine daughters of the officials.
" What's going on? ", Emperor Jing retracted his attention from Ji Mu and stared at the two woman and glared.
As women are gossip lovers, so was Jin Mu, Kin Fie and Jing Li. All the three were curious. Kin Fie and Jing Li were trying to control their laughter as they saw the two women kneeling on the ground but this was not the right time.
" Your highness, help us. We were both strolling around in the Du Fan garden, when somebody threw stale food on us. ", Concubine Hao said.
" Yes, your highness. Our servants were all on the guard. They did not see anyone coming with food . It just came from sky and hit us. ", Concubine Wang cried.
" Your highness must do justice and investigate this matter. ", they both cried.
" Your highness, this concubine even heard someone chanting from now where. ", Concubine Hao said while still kneeling and crying.
" Yes, your highness. I also heard it. It was like this, 'Ren Ren, rules must be followed of the standard palace. Gui.. gui pao be done rightly or else we will be punished like this. ' ", Concubine Wang cried.
Eunuch Zhang came running and found the two concubines of the Emperor. Emperor Jing could not handle it at this time so he commanded Eunuch Zhang to throw these two and later held an investigation.
Everybody thought that those words were meant for them as they must have broken or provoked other concubine or consort in the Imperial harem, so was taught a lesson. But, this was not a case for Jin Mu .
She understood the real meaning behind it. Ling Siyue had given her a secret a message. Her nick name was Ren Ren. This was the name which only Ling Siyue used to call her when she gave her a secret message while swapping.
She thought for a moment and got the real message what Princess Ling wanted her to do.
Again the atmosphere had come to normal.
At this time, Kin Fie's and Jing Li 's mood had lightened but not completely.
" Let's start the ceremony. ", Commanded Jing Qin.
The servants bring in the tea which had to be served to the parents by the bride. Jing Yang and Jin Mu stood from there seats. But Jin Mu started to look here and there, like she was finding something or someone.
" What happened? ", Jing Qin asked.
Kin Fie and Jing Li wanted her to do something wrong so that she would be punished. Whereas, Jing Yang just stared at her.
Jin Mu came forward and kneeled on the ground. " Your highness, please don't take me to heart but I was just discussing someone. May be I don't know her, so can not recognize her. ",she said in a clear voice.
' Princess has always told me to talk in a clear voice unlike those green lotuses. ', Jin Mu was confident.
" Who? ", It picked up Jing Qin's interest.
" Your highness, in our nation, during the tea offering ceremony in the Imperial Family, the persons whom the tea is offered are The Emperor and the Empress. Then, it is offered to the mother of the prince in private. ", Kin Mu spoke.
Kin Fie's eyes widened. 'This bitch wants to work with my rivals... ', Kin Fie was angry. If eyes can kill, Jin Mu had died already. She turned to Kin Fie.
" Hmm, then? ", Emperor Jing again started to see her assessment.
" But here, there is the emperor but not the... empress. May be I don't know about the traditions of this country, that's why I am a little confused. ", She said in low but clear voice.
" You ! Don't you know that I am given special status which is more than that of the empress, so why will....", Kin Fie was interrupted by Emperor Jing.
" Eunuch Zhang fairly called Empress Jing for the ceremony. " Emperor Jing looked at the eunuch standing behind him. " And, Imperial Consort Kin this place is of the empress, you go sit their with your daughter. "
Kin Fie's and Princess Jing Li's eyes widened. What was this ? Why was this emperor siding with her? Under the command of this emperor, the girl's family was killed and here, he was following her ?
Even Jin Mu was confused with how the things were folding. She just prayed that her highness Princess Ling Siyue returned safely and take her place back.
With this, Kin Fie was moved down and Empress Zhu Zhi was called.Even , the empress was shocked and pinched herself when she was fairly called to the Snow pavilion. It was her first time in the Snow Pavilion.
With this, Jin Mu served Emperor, Empress and Kin Fie tea along with Jing Yang. In the end, Emperor Jing and Prince Jing Yang agreed on one thing related to her.
' She was lacking but not useless. '
