Chapter 38 Keeping out of trouble does not mean being timid
The trial at Yan Fu Palace that day ended without any results. Consort Xin was very unhappy when she left, and her skeptical eyes almost swept everyone. She came from a disinterested family. Affected by her family culture, she had acted inconspicuously since entering the Imperial Harem. She consciously disdained to fight with other concubines, but it didn’t mean that she was timid!
The result, however, was not satisfactory. She led a peaceful life at Cheng Yue Palace by playing the qin (a seven-stringed plucked instrument in some ways similar to the zither) and making tea, but someone still framed her up!
They thought she was a coward, didn’t they!
Empress Ji noticed Consort Xin’s facial expression, comforting her perfunctorily, “I know you well...”
“Because of languor, I often stay at Cheng Yue Palace and contact little with sisters in other palaces.” Consort Xin smiled unexpectedly and said indifferently, “You might not really kn

That day when Yun Fenghuang left Yan Fu Palace, she had been promoted to be a Gui Ren. As for the punishment of being grounded… it fizzled out certainly.Empress Ji didn’t think what she did was improper, because Queen Mother Ji ordered her to make a final decision. Now she indeed made the final decision, didn’t she?Empress Ji raised Yun Fenghuang’s rank this time by using the excuse that Xin Qing died distressingly, so, her master should be comforted.Whether others believed it or not, Empress Ji thought so.Of course, Yun Fenghuang had to pay something.“No matter what methods you would use and even you would pester him endlessly, I want to see the evidence that His Majesty did something secretly, especially something that could be discussed at the Imperial Court.” Empress Ji told Yun Fenghuang seriously, “If you can do that, I will let you be one of the noble consorts. At that time, whether you want to use your sur
Empresses in the Palace Chapter 40 News of an old friend
In the rear hall, Consort Yue and Emperor Chunjia sat apart, playing Chinese chess on the table.Consort Yue was holding a chess piece, and her jade-like fingertips were more immaculate against the black piece. However, she wore an angry look on her face. After a while, she messed up the pieces, saying, “I don’t want to play anymore!”She dropped the black piece after she said that, stood up and walked to the round huanghuali-wood table inlaid with marble carved with a crane and a deer in the spring. Then she sat down at the round table and frowned slightly.Emperor Chunjia followed, held the square silver teapot with a mandarin duck-shaped top on the table, poured two cups of tea, pushed one to her and said, “Then we won’t play. Let’s talk.”Consort Yue bit her lip, and said, “Could Mammy Zhu convince that bitch?”“... It’s hard to say.” Emperor Chunjia pondered, “It’s mainly because we can’t figure out what she wants
Empresses in the Palace Chapter 41 Your loyalty was worthless!
When Nian Xuan was sent back to Xi Xing Building, although she had been diagnosed and bandaged, it was still difficult to hide her injuries.Xi Jing, who was just sent by Yun Fenghuang to take back the meal, was shocked, “What happened? Wasn’t she supposed to serve Queen Mother of Mercy? It is said that Queen Mother of Mercy is generous and merciful… Is it?”Yun Fenghuang ignored her, and enjoined her to take care of Nian Xuan these days, “She is asleep now because she took the sedative medicine. Maybe she would wake up at night. At that time, you can help her if she has anything in need... You two can share the same room.”Xi Jing said, “Gui Ren, such a big deal, don’t you tell Her Highness?”Somehow, she emphasized the words “such a big deal” like she was indicating something.“What a big deal?” Yun Fenghuang snorted softly, and said, “She is just a maid who is not even worth mentioning... Do you think Her Highness i
Empresses in the Palace Chapter 42 Self-reflection of Gui Ren Yun
Nian Xuan was a servants’ child born in Xie’s Family, and was arranged as a fellow of Yun Fenghuang. At that time, there were several servants’ children. Nian Xuan was too stupid and ignorant to realize she was framed by others. Therefore, she was not prominent among them.As they grew up, Yun Fenghuang and Ms. Jiang observed their changes and chose four among them in succession as trusted attendants. Nian Xuan was one of them unexpectedly.After Xie Fenghuan’s affair, there was only one trusted attendant left—Nian Xuan. And when Yun Fenghuang set off from the north to Dijing City, she took Nian Xuan with her.It could be seen that Ms. Jiang and Yun Fenghuang trusted Nian Xuan very much... However, Ms. Jiang told Nian Xuan the above, while enjoined her daughter the following privately, “All members of Nian Xuan’s family work for me, and I decide their fates. They dare not make trouble. As for Nian Xuan, she has been naïve and simple since child
Empresses in the Palace Chapter 43 Auntie Zhu was distressed
This evening, Emperor Chunjia wanted to stay in Ning Bi Palace to accompany Consort Yue. At most, he would be blamed by the Empress Dowager, Queen Mother Ji and Queen Mother Yuan. However, when he was coaxing Yuan Lianniang, Auntie Zhu, who had just persuaded Yun Fenghuang to go back, was astonished when she saw that scene in the back hall, “The palace gate is about to be locked. Why hasn’t My Majesty gone to Yan Lan Palace?”“... Lianniang feels a little uncomfortable.” The couple was shocked. Emperor Chunjia subconsciously wanted to defend Consort Yue, “I am worried about her.”“Don’t worry about her, My Majesty.” Auntie Zhu smiled, but there was a trace of murderous intention in her eyes. She said softly, “There are many of us who can take good care of Consort Yue. Anyway, if Consort Yue is really uncomfortable, you can’t stay here anymore. What if you are infected?”Emperor Chunjia said with a smile, “Auntie Zhu, please, just tonight. I wil
Empresses in the Palace Chapter 44 Group attack
When coming out, Empress Ji was still wearing a light smile as usual.After she allowed the concubines to stand up, she became serious, looked at Yun Fenghuang and said, “I just received news early in the morning. I heard that last night, there was a shocking commotion in Hu Zhu Palace. What was going on?”Yun Fenghuang knew it was time for her to cooperate, so she quickly stepped forward to inform, “I had a nightmare and dreamed about Xin Qing last night!”Many delicate concubines in the main palace exclaimed in a low voice, and some even leaned towards the people next to them...... Of course, high-grade concubines such as Empress Ji were still calm. Zhao Yuan Ji asked, “What did you dream about?”“I dreamed that Xin Qing went back to Hu Zhu Palace.” Yun Fenghuang said, “Then she went to Ning Bi Hall. So, after I woke up, I sent someone to Ning Bi Hall to report. But the Mammy there just said I only dreamed about her because I alw
Empresses in the Palace Chapter 45 Puppets
Consort Yue wore a cold face, and said angrily, “I will pretend to be a dumb and deaf person in the future. No matter what these bitches say and do, I’ll choose to ignore it and just let them go! Are you satisfied?”“If you really have that patience, I will be relieved!” Auntie Zhu sighed, “In short, you just keep calm temporarily. We are in a difficult situation. We can’t afford the results.”When she said this, she looked depressed, not as aggressive as before. Even if Consort Yue was full of anger, she couldn’t help but ask tentatively, “Is there any changes in the Imperial Court?”Auntie Zhu didn’t intend to elaborate for her, only said calmly, “You just stay in the palace peacefully, and don’t worry about other things.”Consort Yue suddenly put a long face, and said angrily, “You always blame me for not caring about my family. But when I ask about my family, you just say that I don’t have to worry about that!”Whe

It didn’t take long for Noble Consort Shu to come after being invited. She apparently heard Consort Yue’s accusation to her on the way. After she entered the hall and saluted the Empress, she said with a faint smile before she sat down, “I heard that many puppets were found in the pool of Ning Bi Hall, cursing all the hostesses in the Imperial Harem except Consort Yue, even including my tribe sister, but Consort Yue insisted I did it. Are you dizzy or something?”Consort Yue sneered, “It must be you. Without your support, Yun Fenghuang is nobody. How dare this bitch turn against me, a consort, as soon as she joined the Imperial Harem?!”“What are you talking about?” Noble Consort Shu giggled, glanced at Yun Fenghuang, and said in a gentle voice, “My tribe sister has always been virtuous and gentle. If she was really unruly as you said, I’m afraid that she would have been punished by Your Highness, then how could she be promoted again and again?”
