"I heard that Yichun Palace was very lively last night. The emperor and the concubine went there. Concubine Wan was really lucky. She brought a piece of roasted mutton, so the emperor and the concubine went to see you together. I heard that the concubine also brought I have a pot of fine wine, tsk tsk, it’s really enviable.”

The next day, when she went to Fengxuan Palace to pay her respects, Concubine Jin deliberately ridiculed her.

Sitting across from her, Concubine Wan obviously didn't sleep well yesterday, and even if she applied makeup and powder, the bruises under her eyes were still somewhat uncovered.

At this moment, when Concubine Jin heard her sarcasm, her eyes became even colder.

"Since Concubine Jin is envious, she might as well do the same thing. I came here specifically to mention it in front of me today. Is it because I want to ask for advice? However, I advise Concubine Jin that if she has such thoughts, she might as well spend her energy to urge the eldest prince to study. I have heard that the eldest prince is not praised by his master when he is studying in the school."

"My son, I will naturally teach him well. Even if his knowledge is not good, but his character is upright and kind, that's fine. It's not your turn to teach me what to do. If you have skills, don't use your mind indiscriminately. Teach me well. Sixth Princess, maybe you also have a son."

Although Concubine Jin is not very smart, she is still sharp-tongued, and she picks and pokes at the sore spots when there is a quarrel.

Especially now that she is close to Fang Yun. What happened last night was Concubine Wan's provocation to Fang Yun. Naturally, she stood by Fang Yun and fought back unceremoniously.

Sure enough, when the painful spot was poked, Concubine Wan's face suddenly showed annoyance, and she snorted coldly.

"I'm afraid that all the children will follow their mother, without talent or virtue."

"Concubine Wan doesn't understand the rules." Fang Yun said calmly and put down the tea cup in his hand, "Slandering the emperor's heir is not what you should do as the emperor's concubine. Besides, the eldest prince calls you Concubine Wan at least. What you, an elder, did was a bit harsh."

When speaking, Fang Yun's tone was calm, but when he raised his eyes, the pressure in his eyes made people feel nervous.

Concubine Wan knew she had said the wrong thing, and she had been humiliated by the emperor yesterday, so she naturally became more restrained towards Fang Yun.

He narrowed his eyes and whispered, "I made a mistake."

Seeing that she didn't talk back, Fang Yun stopped talking and said no more.

This is Fengxuan Palace, the queen's territory.

Sure enough, the voices outside stopped, and the queen walked out of the room in a hurry.

The queen just pretended that she didn't hear a word of what happened just now, and after sitting down, she talked about the New Year.

The Chinese New Year is just over a month away, so naturally there are some things that need to be discussed in advance.

After everyone chatted for a while, they dispersed.

After coming out of Fengxuan Palace, Concubine Wan's face was not good.

Xu Lingyi looked gloating and said deliberately as he passed by her.

"Some people, it's really embarrassing. They tried so hard to grab a dish. They thought they could do something. But in the end, someone else invited the emperor away. Tsk, it's not even an invitation. The emperor could go to Yichun Palace for a visit. , I’m going to pick someone up!”

"you!"

Yuetao was so angry that she wanted to hit someone, but was stopped by Wan Fei's eyes.

Seeing this, Xu Lingyi was even more proud, snorted lightly and left in a swaggering manner.

"Why don't you teach her a lesson!" Yuetao said angrily.

Concubine Wan's eyes were cold, "A Xu family is just a person who occasionally steps on me to pass the time when I am unhappy. It's nothing. Yesterday, the emperor went to Yuzhang Palace, and Concubine Zhao somehow orchestrated this concubine in front of the emperor." , I have been relatively stable in the past two days, and the Queen is not kind to me, so she is secretly watching her, trying to find some mistakes to exploit." Hearing this, Yuetao pursed her lips and stopped talking.

Concubine Wan didn't want to be chased away in a sedan chair, so the master and servant walked slowly towards Yichun Palace.

"I am unwilling to give in. I always want to see if the emperor will give me more face, and I also want to see if Concubine Zhao will be tolerant in front of me. But in the end, I was too hasty. Concubine Zhao yesterday At that time, it seemed that she came to Yichun Palace in person, but in fact she didn't take me seriously. She was sure that the emperor would come to Yichun Palace to pick her up, so she came."

Speaking of this, Concubine Wan could not hide the jealousy in her eyes.

"Concubine Zhao has been favored for many years, and now the head coach of the Northern Xinjiang army is her brother-in-law. The emperor will naturally give her face." Yuetao comforted her.

Concubine Wan took a deep breath, "No need to say more, I know in my heart that I am just unwilling to accept it. After suffering this loss, I can see the situation clearly. Now I am not able to compete with Concubine Zhao." When the time comes, just keep a low profile and bide your time.”

Yuetao felt a little relieved when she saw that Concubine Wan was not trying to get into trouble. She nodded and said no more.

As for Fang Yun, he wasn't thinking about it at all.

Today in Fengxuan Palace, she also tried Concubine Wan's attitude.

If they don't continue to provoke, they will be safe. If they continue to provoke, they will naturally take action to deal with it.

But now that there is a war in the north, both Huo Mingxuan and Hu Daixu are meritorious and capable people, and they are both relied upon by Pei Yao, so it is not good for her and Concubine Wan to really fight each other now.

At least Pei Yao wouldn't be happy to see it.

The consequence of something you don't like happening is that both parties involved will feel unhappy.

This is not what Fang Yun wants.

Fengxuan Palace.

The queen said happily while looking through the draft paper used by the fifth prince to practice calligraphy.

"Xu'er is a serious child. For his age, it's very good to be able to write like this."

"Yes, the empress and the emperor are both talented in literature. Our fifth prince will definitely be talented in the future too!"

Tim Mo stood nearby and praised with a smile.

The queen narrowed her eyes, put the manuscript paper back, and then whispered, "The fourth prince is not bad at all. I have inquired about him. He is an excellent student. All the masters have praised him. Even the emperor has praised the fourth prince. Although he is young, he is very smart.”

"But the fourth prince is naughty. People say that playing with things will kill one's ambition. No matter how smart a child is, he will not learn well if his mind is not on his studies as he grows older. Haven't you seen many such people before?" Minsi said. .

She said this, but it failed to dispel the worry on the Queen's brow, and she could only hear the Queen say in a deep voice.

"Concubine Zhao is smart. She has never doted on the fourth prince because of his weakness for so many years. With her here, the fourth prince will not grow crooked. I don't have to fight with her to the death. I just don't want her to take away my life." It’s just what I want, after all, she has never done anything to regret me in all these years.”

Hearing this, Tian Mo immediately said, "Your Majesty, this is not the time to be kind-hearted. I know that your Majesty has learned the way of a gentleman from the Duke since she was a child. However, the Duke had to judge the situation in the previous dynasty, because he did not want to It is even more so when your Majesty is in the harem. You are doing it for the fifth prince and for the future of the Lu family. There must be a price for doing these things. It is said that one general will succeed and thousands of bones will wither."

"I know clearly in my heart." The queen raised her eyes, "Concubine Zhao is currently gaining momentum. Yesterday Concubine Wan shot herself in the foot, which also allowed me to see clearly the importance of Concubine Zhao in the heart of the emperor. If she is not caught, Concubine Zhao's real mistakes are huge, and there is nothing we can do about her. Regarding Concubine Wan, please continue to investigate, I don't believe that she can do it perfectly."
