I don’t know if it was influenced by the diligence of the original owner Yongzheng. When it was about to go to court, the emperor had woken up from his gentle village. Looking at the woman who was still sleeping beside him, what he saw was not her domineeringness. Instead, he felt that She is also a poor woman.

If placed in the open-minded modern society of later generations, Concubine Hua would probably be doted on by her husband, but it is a pity that this is an evil feudal society, and the emperor cannot tolerate the unruly and disrespectful behavior of their Nian family, so Her life was destined to be a tragedy.

"Your Majesty, it's still early! Why don't you sleep a little longer?" Concubine Hua heard the movement beside the bed, looked at the sky outside the window in confusion, and said to the emperor seductively.

"My beloved concubine, it's already getting late, and it's about to go to court." The emperor did not accept the temptation of Concubine Hua, but insisted on his own principles, and then said to the sleepy Concubine Hua, "Concubine Hua, you Just go back to sleep."

"Your Majesty, you are so boring! You should sleep with me until dawn."

"Okay! I'm leaving."

He got rid of Concubine Hua without any difficulty. At this time, his dragon chariot was ready. The emperor got directly into his dragon chariot, and was then carried by the strong eunuchs to the Yangxin Hall where the court meeting was held.

In fact, the place where court meetings and ministers were summoned was in the Qianqing Palace, and later Yongzheng moved to the current Yangxin Palace. As for why he did this, the original owner Yongzheng did not leave any information for himself.

In Kunning Palace, the queen looked at her personal maid in confusion, "Jianqiu, did the emperor still stay at Yangxin Palace last night?"

"Empress, the Emperor went to Concubine Hua's Yikun Palace last night." Jian Qiu bowed and replied.

"Huh! It's Concubine Hua again." The queen felt a little unhappy.

"Queen, I think the emperor has just recovered from a serious illness recently. My empress, should you make some tonic soup and send it over?" Jian Qiu suddenly suggested with a smile.

"Well, what you said makes sense, Jianqiu. I haven't seen the emperor for a while." The Queen smiled understandingly and looked at Jianqiu.

"Mother, I'll go down and let the kitchen prepare it."

"No need! I'd better cook it myself."

The queen started making soup early in the morning, and waited until noon when she felt that the emperor had gone to court. Then she ceased fire and brought the soup to the Yangxin Hall. As soon as she saw Su Peisheng outside the Yangxin Hall, she said, "Eunuch Su, please trouble you." Go in and announce that the Ai family has come to deliver tonic soup to the emperor."

"Queen, the Emperor is discussing matters with Mr. Zhang Tingyu and Mr. Zhang at this time. It would be inappropriate to disturb him at this time!" Su Peisheng looked at the tonic soup in Jian Qiu's hand and explained with some embarrassment.

"Oh? It's already this hour, and the emperor and the others are still talking about things?" The queen couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

"Yes! The emperor often forgets the time when he is busy with state affairs."

"Eunuch Su, I'd better trouble you to go in and inform. If the emperor is really busy, the Ai family will leave the Yangxin Hall immediately."

"This..." Although Su Peisheng was still a little hesitant, seeing the Queen speak like this, it would be unreasonable for him not to go in and report, "Then Queen, please wait a moment!"

"Thank you, Eunuch Su."

"The Queen has broken this old slave."

Su Peisheng entered the Yangxin Hall directly, and did not come out again after a long time. Instead, he saw Zhang Tingyu coming out. As soon as Zhang Tingyu saw the queen, he saluted and said, "Blessings, Queen!"

"install!"

"Queen, I will take my leave first."

"Um."

After a while, Su Peisheng came out and said to the Queen with a smile, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty invites you."

The queen followed Su Peisheng into the Hall of Cultivation of the Heart, but saw that the emperor was still reviewing the memorial, "Your Majesty, I have made a tonic soup for you."

"Well, I'm here to help you, the queen." The emperor looked up at the scheming queen.

"Your Majesty, it's not hard for me as a concubine."

"Well, Su Peisheng, I am indeed a little hungry. Please pass on the food!"

"Yes! Your Majesty." After Su Peisheng replied, he immediately shouted outside the Yangxin Hall, "Pass the meal!"

There was no Man-Han banquet as expected. Instead, it was the emperor's usual favorite dishes. Then the emperor, served by Su Peisheng, had lunch with the queen.

Seeing that the emperor kept eating but couldn't move the tonic soup she had made, the queen smiled and urged, "Your Majesty, my concubine has been brewing this tonic soup for more than an hour. Drink it while it's hot." !”

"I don't like to drink any tonic soup. Queen, don't bother anymore in the future." These things in the palace are too watery, and I won't drink the tonic soup without knowing the specific ingredients.

"Ah? Your Majesty, don't you love to drink the tonic soup cooked by my concubine?" The queen's expression and movements suddenly froze.

"I have just recovered from a serious illness, so it is not suitable for me to drink this kind of tonic soup."

"Your Majesty, this concubine is a bit careless."

"It's okay!" the emperor said nonchalantly, then looked at the pale queen, and suddenly felt that it was quite charming, "Queen, please stay and serve me later in the Yangxin Hall for a nap."

"Ah? Yes! Your Majesty." The queen suddenly couldn't help but feel pleasantly surprised.

Just now the emperor refused to drink the tonic soup he had made. The queen felt very uncomfortable. She sensitively sensed that she was disliked by the emperor. Now she suddenly heard the emperor's arrangement, and the queen suddenly felt that there was no way out. It feels like another village has a bright future.

After the emperor and the empress had lunch, Su Peisheng walked out of the Yangxin Hall with Jianqiu knowingly, and thoughtfully closed the door of the Yangxin Hall, and then waited quietly with Jianqiu outside the Yangxin Hall.

Although the emperor and the empress have been an old couple for a long time, the emperor is not enthusiastic about the harem. Coupled with the existence of young concubines and concubines in the harem, it is difficult for the empress to have the opportunity to be alone with the emperor.

"Your Majesty, I will help you change your clothes."

"Um."

Looking at the queen who suddenly became a little shy, and feeling her slightly trembling hands, the emperor realized that the queen had not had this kind of favor for a long time, and couldn't help but curse the original owner in his heart for his cruelty.

Today the emperor gave the queen too many surprises. Holding the sleeping emperor tightly, the queen asked in disbelief, "Your Majesty, is this true?"

"What?" the emperor said in confusion.

"Emperor, was it really you and my concubine just now?"

"Haha, Queen, how long has it been since we were together?"

"Your Majesty, it's been a long, long time. I don't even remember the date."

"Well, then just remember the date and come to me if you need anything."

"Ah? Is it really possible?" The queen looked up at the emperor in surprise.

"Haha, you have no joke."

"I would like to thank you, Your Majesty." The queen became excited again.

"Queen, I had a lot of things to do in the previous dynasty. You are nominally responsible for the affairs of the harem. I don't want my concubine to have a miscarriage in the future. I believe you can understand what I am saying."

"Ah? Your Majesty, I know this." The Queen's heart suddenly tightened, and she replied with a forced smile.



The nap time was very short, just over an hour or two or three hours. Then the queen left the Yangxin Hall with a rosy complexion. Looking at the queen on the phoenix, Jianqiu said with a smile on her face, "Queen, congratulations." You have once again won the Emperor’s favor.”

"Hmph! There are many young concubines in the harem, and I don't know how long this favor will last." The queen was not so optimistic.

"Queen, auspicious people have their own destiny, and no one in the harem can take your place."

"Hey! I hope!" The queen was really fascinated by today's favor. She felt that the emperor was like a different person. Then she told Jianqiu, "These little harem masters who just entered the palace should adapt now." After understanding the situation in the palace, we will all summon him to Kunning Palace tomorrow, and the Ai family will also see if there is anyone who can be of great use."

"Yes! Queen."

The next day, the Kunning Palace in the harem became lively. This time, the young masters who entered the harem through the draft came to Kunning Palace to pay greetings to the queen, and they were all canonized as the lowest official women. This time the emperor did not No preferential treatment was given to any of them.

After a series of tedious three bows and nine kowtows, the queen also met this group of new harem newcomers, and then said to the harem newcomers with a smile, "This time, although you are all official ladies, you still hope to serve us wholeheartedly. Your Majesty, your Majesty will definitely be promoted to a higher rank soon."

"Yes! Queen."

"Well, you are Zhen Huan, right?" The queen suddenly looked at the most beautiful girl and said.

"Back to the queen, my concubine is Zhen Huan, and my father, the young minister of Dali Temple, Zhen Yuandao."

"Hmph! What does a young young minister from Dali Temple have to show off?" Concubine Hua on the side suddenly said sarcastically.

"What Concubine Hua said is true! The small family of the Zhen family is indeed not as good as the famous Nian family." Zhen Huan did not dare to offend the domineering Concubine Hua.

"Huh! It's good to know." Concubine Hua showed a proud expression.

"Zhen Huan, I see that your face looks a little bad. Are you feeling unwell?" The Queen looked around at the newcomers and felt that Zhen Huan in front of her was the most beautiful and charming.

"Back to the Queen, I may be a little acclimatized."

"Humph! You bitch is just hypocritical." Concubine Hua on the side felt that Zhen Huan was not pleasing to her eyes, so she said sarcastically again.

"..." All the concubines present could not help but change their expressions. They felt that Concubine Hua was being too bullying.

"Hua Fei, please stop in moderation!" The queen couldn't help but remind her coldly.

"snort!"

Zhen Huan is now a little pitiful person. She dares to get angry but dare not speak out against Concubine Hua's constant targeting and making things difficult for her, so she still endures it.

The reason why her face looks ugly today is because yesterday the eunuchs and maids of Shai Yuxuan discovered the fragrant core of musk under a big tree and realized that the harem is a place where people eat people without spitting out their bones.

What was originally a lively gathering of concubines in the harem turned cold because of Concubine Hua's cynicism towards Zhen Huan. The queen felt as sick as if she had swallowed a fly, and then sent everyone away from Kunning Palace.

Because the emperor did not choose that Xia family at all, all the very classic "one foot red" disappeared, but everyone still saw Concubine Hua's arrogance and domineering, and they invariably became jealous of Concubine Hua.

On the way back to Broken Yuxuan, Zhen Huan still met several panicked palace maids and eunuchs. Then, driven by curiosity, Zhen Huan saw the most terrifying thing since entering the palace, and was frightened to death again. Seven Souls are missing.

Zhen Huan didn't want to go to bed so soon, so she asked the imperial physician Wen Shichu to help her conceal her illness, "Master Wen, please help me?"

"Little Master, how do you want me to help you?" Wen Shichu was a little confused.

"Master Wen, I don't want to sleep with you." Zhen Huan approached Wen Shichu and whispered.

"Ah?" Wen Shichu was stunned.

"Master Wen, you are the only one who can help me now." Zhen Huan looked at Wen Shichu with a pleading look on her face.

"My lord, I can help you. I just need to prescribe a few medicines for you." Wen Shichu thought for a while, then gritted his teeth and agreed.

"Thank you! Mr. Wen." Seeing Wen Shichu agree, Zhen Huan couldn't help being pleasantly surprised.

Zhen Huan found that the harem was a place full of dangers, so she no longer wanted to sleep with her. Zhen Huan, who had never wanted to enter the palace, suddenly felt that it would be good to live alone all her life, at least there would not be so many dangers.



This horrific incident in the palace had a great impact. The emperor also knew about it. However, he did not think that the death of an eunuch was insignificant. Instead, he took the matter seriously and prepared to use it to warn the arrogant and domineering Concubine Hua. .

"Su Peisheng, how do harems usually deal with this kind of thing?" The emperor looked at Su Peisheng in confusion.

"Your Majesty, this kind of thing can be big or small. It mainly depends on the attitude of the Queen and the Queen Mother."

"Oh? Then how do you think this matter will be handled?" The emperor did not expect Su Peisheng to answer like this.

"Your Majesty, as far as I know, this little Fuzi is the eunuch sent to Yikun Palace by the Queen, so the Queen will at least ask about it."

"Well, then let's go to Cining Palace. I want to see how the Queen Mother and the Empress resolve this matter."

"Yes! Your Majesty."

The Queen Mother was still a little surprised by the emperor who suddenly came to Cining Palace, "Emperor, why did such a trivial matter disturb you?"

"Empress, human life is at stake, this matter is not trivial." The emperor shook his head disapprovingly.

"Huh? Yes! Your Majesty, the Ai family made a mistake."

"Empress Huang, it's better for the Queen and Concubine Hua to come to Cining Palace together."

"Yes! Your Majesty." Although she was surprised by the emperor's attitude, the Queen Mother still agreed, and then said to Grandma Wang beside her, "Grandma Wang, let someone go to Kunning Palace and Yikun Palace."

"Yes! Queen Mother."

The Queen of Kunning Palace was a little surprised when she heard the summons of the Emperor and the Queen Mother. Originally, she was planning to ask the eunuch Jiang Fuhai to go to Yikun Palace to question Concubine Hua. Then she looked at Jian Qiu with some doubts, "Jian Qiu" , What do the Emperor and the Queen Mother mean?"

"Queen, no matter what the Queen Mother and the Emperor mean this time, it is still something that Concubine Hua needs to worry about." Jian Qiu analyzed with a proud look on her face.

"Well, let's see how Concubine Hua, a bitch, explains this time."

In Yikun Palace, Concubine Hua looked at the eunuch who was delivering the order in Cining Palace. She felt guilty. After she sent away the eunuch who was delivering the order, she looked at her personal maid Songzhi in a panic, "Songzhi , what should we do?"

"Empress, you don't need to worry too much. The emperor has always loved you very much. At most, he would ask you to go over and ask about the situation."

"Well, Songzhi, what you said makes sense." After hearing Songzhi's analysis, Concubine Hua became confident again. After all, she had a good big brother who was good at fighting. Then she looked at Yikun Palace with cold eyes. Minions, "You all listen to me. Xiao Fuzi ran out of Yikun Palace on his own after being slapped by me. He couldn't think about it anymore."

"Yes! Your Majesty." The eunuchs and maids of Yikun Palace all answered honestly.
