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
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?”
“What are you doing?” Yun Fenghuang drove out Yuan Lianniang’s maids as soon as she entered Ning Bi Hall. Auntie Zhu wanted to stay there, but she was questioned, “Are you worried about me or Her Highness?” Then, Yun Fenghuang forcefully kept Auntie Zhu out.At this time, Yun Fenghuang played with her fingers, ordering her trusted attendants, “Both of you, hurry up and serve Jie Yu Yue to copy scriptures, will you?”“Yes!” Xi Le and Xi Jing obeyed her order and walked to the bed. Without saying a word, they dragged Yuan Lianniang, who was still stunned, down the bed. “Rub-a-dub.” Yuan Lianniang hit the footrest. Yun Fenghuang couldn’t bear it and twisted her face to the side. Judging from the sound, it must be very achy... Well, at least Yun Fenghuang wasn’t the one who suffered the pain!The corner of her mouth was slightly hooked, and she pretended to reprimand, “Don’t you know how to serve? Don’t you know that Jie Yu Yue is the sweetheart of
“Your life is counting down.” Yun Fenghuang leaned back towards her chair, saying calmly, “Cursing the Empress, Noble Consort Gui, Noble Consort Shu and Consort Xin... You have been accused of cursing lots of people. Besides, you also slandered Noble Consort Shu in public. If your actions were discussed in the Imperial Court, you would be worthy of death! Not to mention to beg for leniency for you, if Yuan’s Family in Fuyang County could avoid being implicated, it...”Yuan Lianniang eagerly said, “I’m talking about His Majesty!”This was really a touching childhood relationship!Yun Fenghuang sighed, and then thought of her ex-sweetheart who broke his promise. That man was leaving for Dijing City?If so, she should try get her promotion quickly. Before that bastard had a firm foothold, she had to reach out her strength to the Imperial Court, and then gave him a lifelong unforgettable lesson!He thought he was able to b
“Do you think there is a high possibility that Ji’s Family could replace Gongxiang’s Family?” Yun Fenghuang didn’t panic when she heard this. She only narrowed her eyes and asked back.Yuan Lianniang suddenly changed her face and scolded, “It’s absolutely impossible! Gongxiang’s Family settled the country in the troubled times, and contributed to the people. Since the family took over the crown, all the former Emperors have worked hard and aroused all their efforts to make the country prosperous. Although His Majesty has never been in power so far, he has always been gentle, cherishing the people and compassionating the lower-grade… The royal family still has great blessings. How is it possible that Ji’s Family could seize the throne?!”Yun Fenghuang said, “That’s it. First of all, Ji’s Family may not be able to win. Secondly, even if Ji’s Family won, considering the status of Duke Yi’s Mansion, do you think I could affect the final decision even if I can s
Yun Fenghuang didn’t care how tangled and worried Yuan Lianniang was. She looked at the dazzling dishes in front of her, but didn’t take up the chopsticks. Instead, she looked around, and then sighed, “When I first joined the Imperial Harem, I served Jie Yu Yue for a meal here... How time flies. After so many... many days, I didn’t expect I am able to sit here to enjoy meals.”How time flied. It seemed that she had joined the Imperial Harem for... well, for almost half a month?Xi Le and Xi Jing were speechless.Xi Le’s attitude had always been very correct and her response had been quick. She was the first to flatter, “Gui Ren, you are such a talent. Jie Yu Yue has few blessings and an unfortunate life. How could she be qualified to order you? See? As soon as she ordered you to serve her for a meal, she was degraded as Jie Yu immediately. She should appreciate that Her Highness is lenient. Otherwise, she should deserve to be degraded as an ord
Yuan Lianniang, who was glaring at Xi Jing, instantly widened her eyes, “What did you just say?”Then she immediately gave a gasp of astonishment, “Are you crazy? Absolutely not!”“Absolutely not?” Yun Fenghuang looked at her with a faint smile, and waved her hand to sign Xi Jing and Xi Le to leave. After that, she said leisurely, “Then Jie Yu, please tell me, is His Majesty able to fight with Ji’s Family now?”Before Yuan Lianniang answered, she continued to say, “If he is able to do it, how can you be degraded to be Jie Yu? His Majesty is still dormant, but Ji’s Family has already been suspicious. What should he do now? Fight with them? If he fights with them, the result will be what I just told you. Even if Noble Consort Gui can’t give birth to a boy this time, according to what they had done eight years ago, they can select a few ignorant children among so many Princedoms, right?”“Given the situation, he can only take a step b
“How can’t it be?” After half a day, when Yun Fenghuang returned to Xi Xing Building, she lazily said while drinking the tea taken from Ning Bi Hall, “Mr. Ling Shan was nicely treated and received great kindness from the late Emperor, but he fled to his hometown when the late Emperor needed him the most... Even if he was on the excuse of being in mourning for his mother’s death, the discerning people of this country could easily tell what was going on. Although His Majesty is not the biological son of the former Emperor, an adapted son is equivalent to a biological son. His Majesty is willing to accept him regardless of the previous enmities, so how can he refuse His Majesty?”Xi Le said, “Gui Ren, please forgive my ignorance. Although Prince Regent is not of supremacy, his situation is better than His Majesty’s now. I really can’t understand. Mr. Ling Shan has already chosen Prince Regent’s Mansion, why will he accept His Majesty’s solicitation?”After all
