Concubine, she rises step by step

Chapter 221 Provocation

Just when Shenyi closed her eyes and enjoyed the comfortable atmosphere, she suddenly felt a dark shadow pressing over her.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Huo Jiheng's slightly pitiful eyes.

"You are wronged..."

Listening to Huo Jiheng's extremely soft voice and looking at his affectionate eyes, she said in surprise: "Your Majesty, you——"

Li Qing hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty has heard about what happened in Jingren Palace today. He feels that you have been wronged and even gave up the bargain, so he came here quickly."

The kind words she said made her heart happy and warm. She held Huo Jiheng's handsome face and said word by word with a sweet smile: "I feel the emperor's heart..."

Huo Jiheng couldn't stand Sheng Yi's "cheating", so he immediately covered himself softly and kissed Sheng Yi gently.

Sheng Yi's face turned red and she said shyly, "There are still people here."

Huo Jiheng was in a good mood. He picked up Sheng Yi and said with a wicked smile: "Then let's go inside!"

Seeing Huo Jiheng and Sheng Yi enter the house, Li Qing and others did not dare to enter the house even if they had a hundred courages, so they had to wait at the door.

Zhixia's face was full of joy and she said with a smile: "The Emperor is really concerned about our queen..."

This is more than just being considerate, it’s simply that my heart is focused on kindness, okay?

The concubine in Zhongcui Palace was holding her handkerchief tightly at the moment, her eyes filled with hatred.

"Master, we cannot afford to offend Concubine Sheng. Please calm down." The palace maid Suying comforted her.

Quan Zhiyan said with disdain: "She is just a concubine who was born as a palace maid. Even if she climbs to this position, she is extremely lucky. I don't believe she can still dominate the emperor every day!"

Suying lowered her head to Quan Zhiyan's side and offered her advice: "Master, we have just entered the harem and are weak. Taking action at this time will inevitably attract criticism. Why not let Jingren Palace and Yuxiu Palace do this?" What's going on."

Quan Zhiyan frowned slightly, "I heard that the queen and Concubine De are very fond of Concubine Sheng, I'm afraid it will be difficult to handle."

Suying was naturally confident and said: "Master, no matter how good the relationship is, it is all superficial. Both the left and right are the emperor's concubines. Can Jingren Palace and Yuxiu Palace tolerate such special favors from Shengyi?"

Quan Jiyan suddenly said: "You are right, no matter how generous a woman is, she cannot withstand provocation."

In the evening, Jingren Palace turned off the lights early.

However, the lights in Yuxiu Palace were left on until late at night.

"Your Majesty, the Emperor has not come out from Zhaoyang Palace this afternoon, and the lights in Jingren Palace have been turned off long ago. Don't wait any longer." Dongjuan felt uncomfortable looking at her lonely expression.

Chang Lan glanced at Mingyue and said, "Dongjuan, how many days has it been since the Emperor came to Yuxiu Palace?"

Dongjuan whispered: "It's been 20 days."

Chang Lan smiled sadly, "20 days? How could this be possible before? Nowadays, it is normal..."

The next day.

The imperial edict spread throughout the palaces: "Concubine Sheng's body is getting heavier. From now on, greetings will be cancelled."

Kwon Ji-yeon got up early.

Jingren Palace replied that he was feeling unwell and did not even open the door.

Quan Zhiyan turned around and went to Yuxiu Palace.

Chang Lan, who had barely slept a wink all night, was also sulking now. "Mother, my concubine is here."

Chang Lan dismissed: "I'm gone, annoying!"

Dongjuan went out to deliver the message, and came back after a while, "Your Majesty, Concubine Rou said this is the very famous soothing incense in Juli, and sent some to your Majesty."

Looking at the exquisitely packaged incense, Chang Lan casually raised her head and asked, "Where is the person?"

Dongjuan replied: "Already gone."

Chang Lan sighed, "I have a hard life. She has a harder life than me. She doesn't even have a chance to serve."

Dongjuan nodded and said, "Actually, I'm quite nice, and I don't have any ill intentions."

Chang Lan remembered that she had just rejected her bluntly, and felt embarrassed, so she told Dongjuan, "You will send some food to Zhongcui Palace later, and invite my concubine to have lunch here."

Dongjuan felt that the empress had changed, she had become kinder, and she was more understanding of the ways of the world. She nodded with joy and said: "I will go now."

No, Quan Jiyan came here early.

"Good luck to the imperial concubine." Quan Zhiyan was wearing a crescent white thin shirt, embellished with tiny flowers, which made Quan Zhiyan even more delicate.

"I don't know what you like to eat, so I asked the small kitchen to make something casually. You can try it and see if it suits your taste." Chang Lan usually eats alone, but with the addition of others, Chang Lan's words changed. A little more.

Before the food was eaten, Quan Zhiyan's tears fell.

Chang Lan, who looked confused, quickly handed over the handkerchief, "What? The food doesn't taste good?"

Quan Zhiyan quickly shook her head, "No, no, it's delicious. Zhiyan just felt that she was treated so well by the imperial concubine, and she was very touched."

Chang Lan's heart softened, "You, your charming appearance is a bit like Concubine Sheng."

Quan Zhiyan quickly wiped the remaining tears from the corners of her eyes, "Ms. Concubine Sheng?"

Chang Lan nodded, "Concubine Sheng actually doesn't have any intentions. She just has no relatives in the family and wants to settle down in the palace. In this way, you are very similar!"

Kwon Ji-yeon said "Oh" with a deep meaning.

"However, Concubine Sheng does not look like a harmless person who just wants to find a place to stay. I heard in Guli that Concubine Sheng rectified Xin Zheku, governed the cold palace, and changed the regulations and rules of the palace. It's well-organized, it's not like it can be done casually." Quan Zhiyan said one sentence at a time, paying attention to the changes in Chang Lan's face as he spoke.

"Your information is quite good." Chang Lan said quietly.

Quan Zhiyan promptly served a bowl of soup to Chang Lan, "Mother, it's not that Zhiyan is well-informed, it's the news that has reached Gouli. Many people say that the queen is ill and her daily life is at her limit. Managing the harem is a bit difficult. But the emperor is in his prime, so the huge Dajin harem cannot be without a mistress, right? Now that Concubine Sheng is favored and pregnant, if she has a son, her status will be even higher. Although Zhiyan enters the university Time is short, but Zhiyan can see that the one who has the ability, confidence and courage to deal with the harem is you..."

Being so raised by Quan Zhiyan, Chang Lan felt as if she was suddenly filled with motivation.

However, Chang Lan can't embarrass Sheng Yi yet. After all, Yao Guiren is a lesson learned from the past, and she can't be stupid anymore.

"We are all sisters. Even if she is a little mean-spirited, she just wants to stay on her feet. As long as she doesn't hinder me, let her go." Chang Lan spoke generously and beautifully.

Quan Zhiyan nodded repeatedly and said with admiration: "The imperial concubine is still generous. Zhiyan will definitely learn more from the imperial concubine in the future!"

Chang Lan smiled faintly.

After Quan Zhiyan left, Chang Lan couldn't hold back her anger.

"Dongjuan, get me a cloak. I want to go to the Zhengxin Hall!" She will not blatantly disagree with Shengyi, but she can't just sit back and wait for death. Quan Zhiyan has a saying that is right, she must let everyone Does anyone know who is the master of this harem?
