Empress, she wins by eating melons and laying down in the harem

Chapter 501
The Palace of Compassion and Ning staged the deep love between aunt and nephew, and concubine Shu returned to Yuqing Pavilion.

Seeing the deserted courtyard, thinking of the scene of the Queen Mother and the Queen just now, she secretly hated her low birth, and secretly hated that she had paid so much but got less than half as much as the Queen.

What is even more frightening is that the emperor will leave at any time, and she will be buried with her according to the clan system.

If she had a child by her side, she wouldn't be in such a desperate state.

Think of your child, think of everything that happened to you.

If it weren't for the queen, she would have been a mother long ago.

"Your Majesty." The maid Wu Xuan came with a meal.

Concubine Shu heard the movement, turned around, her expression became indifferent, she saw the simple vegetarian dishes, she didn't say anything, came to the table and sat down, picked up the chopsticks and started eating.

She served the emperor for dinner every day, and then came back to eat. This was the case every day. Today, because she went to the Empress Dowager's side, she came back a little late, and now the food is cold.

The current self, even if there are leftovers, she can't dislike it, because if the emperor dies suddenly, even living is a luxury for her.

Today's empress dowager's statement gave her a glimmer of hope.

The maid Wu Xuan saw that the master was so tired and could only eat this when he came back, and immediately felt aggrieved for the master.

In the whole palace, who is not wronged, which master is easy, thinking of those concubines who were kicked out of the palace, what did they do wrong?
Concubine Shu is pretty good in comparison.

It is also an honor to serve in front of the emperor every day.

Thinking of this, I feel that this matter is not a big deal at the moment.

While Wu Xuan was thinking about things, Concubine Shu had already finished eating.

Wu Xuan cleared the table and was about to leave with the bowls and chopsticks. When she heard the movement in the yard, she turned to look at Concubine Shu.

"Your Majesty, it's that court lady again."

In the past, Concubine Shu would not pay attention to it, but today she was in a good mood, and when she walked out the door, she saw the little maid kneeling in the courtyard.

He just knelt down without saying a word, and his purpose was to make it clear before the first arrival that he wanted to follow Concubine Shu.

Concubine Shu didn't agree, and Mother Xu, who was in charge, didn't take the little palace maid seriously.

"What's your name?" Concubine Shu asked, and the little maid immediately raised her head.

"Go back to your mother, servant girl Xiaoba."

"Which palace is serving?" Concubine Shu asked.

"Go back to your mother, the maidservant used to follow the concubine, but now the concubine is out of the palace, the maidservant has not yet reached the age to leave the palace, if" the little maid said that she would not say anything.

Concubine Shu smiled, very cold, "If there is no master to take him in, then go to Xinzheku?"

The little eighth lady nodded.

"You look down on people from Xinzheku?"

"Slaves don't dare!" Xiao Ba kowtowed in fright.

"It is true that there are fewer people around me. If you can get the permission of the steward, Madam Xu, come here!"

When Xiao Ba heard this, he immediately kowtowed to thank him.

Concubine Shu turned and left, and after a while, she learned from Wu Xuan that Xiao Ba had left.

He asked, "Your Majesty, are you really taking in that court lady?"

"Otherwise?" Concubine Shu asked back.

"Your Majesty, today I heard that someone went to the East Palace to ask the Crown Princess to take him in, and something happened."

"What happened?" Concubine Shu immediately sat upright.

Wu Xuan said, "I don't know what exactly happened. I only heard that the young lady entered the East Palace not long ago, and the prince hurried back to the East Palace, looking very anxious."

Concubine Shu's body suddenly relaxed, thinking that the maid just now should be fine, so she didn't take it to heart.

Madam Xu, who is in charge, won't allow it. She has nothing to worry about.

What Concubine Shu didn't expect was that when she got up the next day, washed up, and went to take care of the emperor, Xiao Ba was already cleaning the yard.

Concubine Shu saw it when she went out, and stopped in her footsteps.

When Xiao Ba heard the movement, he hurriedly went to Concubine Shu to salute, "Slave, Xiao Ba, see Concubine Shu."

Concubine Shu didn't expect this little maid to be capable. She thought that Madam Xu, who was in charge, was not easy to talk to, but after one night, the matter came to fruition, which meant that the little maid had some connections.

If so, it's okay to stay.

"There are not many things about Yuqing Pavilion. If you don't understand anything, you can ask Wu Xuan."

"Yes." Xiao Ba saluted, and looked at Wu Xuan to salute, "Xiao Ba has met Sister Wu."

Wu Xuan didn't have a good look at Xiao Ba, and said to Concubine Shu, "Mother, it's getting late!"

Concubine Shu heard this and left quickly.

After the master left, Xiao Ba quietly swept the yard.

When Concubine Shu came to the emperor's Yulong Palace, it was rare to see the queen there.

Concubine Shu came forward and saluted the emperor and queen.

The queen glanced at Concubine Shu, "Concubine Shu has a heart."

"What a concubine should do!" Concubine Shu said.

"You mean I shouldn't?" The queen raised her eyebrows.

Concubine Shu saw that the emperor closed her eyes, she didn't intend to help her, she just knelt on the ground, "The concubine said something wrong, damn it!"

"It's unlucky to say something about death or not in front of the emperor!"

"Ahem——" The emperor was unhappy, and opened his eyes to look at the queen, with a look of boredom flashing in his eyes.

Eunuch Lu bit the bullet for the emperor, and when he calmed down, he quickly brought water.

After the emperor drank it, Imperial Physician Ma came with a medicine bowl.

Seeing that the queen was there, I felt strange in my heart, and stepped forward to salute, "See the queen!"

The queen glanced at the medicine bowl, smelled it, and knew the difference, "Did you change the medicine?"

"Yes."

"The prince knows?"

"Yes."

When the queen heard this, she stretched out her hand, and Imperial Doctor Ma could only deliver the medicine bowl to the queen.

The queen held the medicine bowl, and when she looked at the emperor, her expression softened, "It was arranged by the prince, your majesty can take it with confidence."

The emperor gave the empress some face, and when the empress was feeding her, she took the initiative to open her mouth.

The queen was feeding, thinking of the past.

When she gave birth to the King of Chu, the emperor also fed her like this. At that time, she thought that she had met a lover, but she didn't expect to be deceiving herself in the end.

"Your Majesty, do you still remember that when the King of Chu was born, you also fed your concubine medicine like this."

The emperor looked at the queen, his body was not as good as before, and he was always on guard against the queen, even if the king of Chu died, he did not let down his vigilance against this woman.

Now let’s talk about the king of Chu, he didn’t remember this incident for a long time, and suddenly said, did he find out that the death of the king of Chu was related to the crown prince?
If this is the case, my current body is not as good as before, and I can't protect the prince. If the queen does something crazy, he may not be able to stop it.

I thought about it in my heart, but it didn't show on my face.

"Queen remember?"

"Remember, the concubine will never forget. At that time, the concubine thought she was the happiest person. Who would have thought that so many things would happen later, and let us gradually come to where we are today?"

After being reminded by the queen mother, the queen also knew that she had ignored the emperor.

He hated this man as deeply as he loved him and was hurt deeply. Now that the emperor's days are numbered, she thought of the beauty of the past, and suddenly felt that she should not be willful anymore.

Seeing such a queen, the emperor put away some defenses against her, "You have worked hard all these years!"

These words instantly touched the Queen's tears. She couldn't control it, and the tears suddenly flowed down.

The queen didn't even notice it, but when she saw the emperor's eyes, she realized that she had lost her composure.

She raised her hand to wipe it, and realized that she was crying, so she got up quickly and left in a panic.

The emperor looked at the queen thoughtfully, and also thought of the time when they first met.

Concubine Shu has been watching from the side, seeing that the relationship between the emperor and the queen suddenly improved, she became nervous, worried that the good reputation that had been hard-won these days would disappear because of the sudden change of the queen.
