Quick Transmigration: After becoming beautiful, I am numb

Chapter 791 The emperor is cheating (29)

In the court, either the east wind prevails over the west wind, or the west wind overpowers the east wind.

The power of the monarch and the power of the prime minister, the emperor and the courtiers, have always been in a relationship of mutual oppression.

In fact, this is not only true in the court, but also in the harem.

Gu Qingcheng was too lazy to engage in palace fighting. Like the original owner, she always focused on the past.

Not the one-third of an acre in the harem.

Besides, the core of palace fighting is never the fight between women, but the emperor.

Oh no, a more accurate term should be "strength".

As long as you have enough status, even the emperor will respect and coax you, let alone the concubines.

But if there is no support, then he will directly become an outcast in the harem.

Just like Empress Gu, she always remembered that the reason why she was able to become a queen and secure her throne was never because of the emperor's favor.

With the huge Gu family at her back, she has enough confidence.

She doesn't need to invite favors at all, let alone fight with a group of women.

Not only Queen Gu, but also Concubine Yu was in the same situation.

Her ability to become the first of the four concubines was definitely not due to her relationship with Min Huang, but because of the Yu family.

In her previous life, Concubine Yu did not understand and did many foolish things, including "self-destroying the Great Wall"!
"How stupid was I in my previous life? I actually helped Min Huang plot to capture the Yu family army!"

It had been a few days since she was reborn, and Concubine Yu still felt in an unreal trance.

She always kept thinking about her previous life, and then she fell into deep self-blame and guilt.

"Mother, tomorrow is Buddha's birthday!"

Coral didn't know what her mother-in-law was thinking, but she was still keenly aware of her abnormality.

Ever since she woke up from her nap that day, she had been acting strangely.

Of course, Hualu has been serving Concubine Yu since she was a child and knows her very well.

Through Concubine Yu's inadvertent little gestures, Hualu was very sure: This is my mother-in-law!

"Oh, what kind of nightmare did the queen have?"

This stamina is quite big.

This has been going on for several days, and the empress has not come out yet.

Moreover, the empress gave her a special instruction that day: "When the Buddha's birthday is approaching, you must remind me!"

Buddha's birthday?
My wife doesn’t believe in Buddhism either.

Well, the Queen Mother, Mrs. Xie and other elders seem to believe in Buddhism.

Every year on Buddha's birthday, the elders in the palace will go to the royal temple to participate in Buddha's birthday activities.

only--

Their mother-in-law is Concubine Yu, a domineering concubine who is famous in the palace and even in the entire capital.

She only had the Emperor Min Huang in her eyes and heart. The Queen Mother was better. After all, she was the Queen Mother and a decent mother-in-law in terms of etiquette. Concubine Yu would still show some respect.

But who is Mrs. Xie?

A palace maid who was born as a farm slave was just lucky enough to get some favor and give birth to an excellent son.

Otherwise, she would be destined to die in the palace of old age for the rest of her life.

These days, there is no "benefits" for palace ladies to leave the palace at the age of 25. Once a woman enters the palace, she is there for life.

As a young noblewoman who often visited the palace, Concubine Yu had met Concubine Xie when she was young.

Shy and timid, Concubine Yu never even looked at her.

The key is that Concubine Yu is not only from a low background and unable to get on the stage, but the most terrible thing is that she is stupid and confused.

Concubine Yu herself is not a very smart person, but Concubine Xie is even worse than her!
Concubine Yu really has no reason to respect Concubine Xie.

Concubine Yu has never been one to wrong herself, nor will she be secretive.

If she doesn't like or respect Mrs. Xie, it will show.Coral, as her personal maid, naturally knows it very well.

Coral knew better that because of his mother-in-law's temperament, since she was so repulsive to certain elders in the harem, she would not do things she didn't like in order to please them.

For example, burn incense and worship Buddha!
Therefore, after hearing Concubine Yu's instructions a few days ago, Hualu was really puzzled for a long time.

However, as a loyal servant, no matter how much you murmur in your heart, you must still do your best when it comes to running errands.

There was one day left before Buddha's birthday, so Coral took the initiative to remind him.

"Tomorrow is Buddha's birthday?"

Coral's words instantly pulled Concubine Yu out of her deep guilt.

"Yes, empress, today is the seventh day of April, and tomorrow is the eighth day of April, which is the Buddha's birthday!"

Coral replied respectfully.

A hint of darkness flashed in Concubine Yu's eyes: Today is the day!

When she was first reborn, Concubine Yu's eyes darkened and she didn't know anything.

She still went back to her parents' home. In addition to "cooperating" with Min Huang in acting, she also borrowed some people from her second uncle. Concubine Yu did not continue to be deaf or blind.

The Yu family is the general, and their territory is in the northwest.

But it’s not like he has no connections at all in the capital.

Not to mention anything else, just among the sergeants who retire every few years due to disability, many of them are from Jingzhao.

The Yu family helped arrange errands for these disabled veterans, and these people were the natural "Yu family party".

Moreover, most of these people live in the market and are ordinary people at the bottom.

Maybe not noble enough, but definitely well-informed.

In addition, in addition to these retired veterans, the Yu family also has tribes, private soldiers, and even dead soldiers.

Although Yu Heng was surprised by Concubine Yu's request, he knew that Concubine Yu was the apple of his eldest brother's eye and the little princess of the entire Yu family.

Even if her request is incomprehensible, she must help her complete it.

Concubine Yu relied on the manpower given to her by Yu Heng and began to investigate.

She was too "proud" and lived in confusion whether in her previous life or in this life.

However, no matter how confused she is, Concubine Yu may not be able to remember the causes and consequences of some things, especially those related to herself, but she can still remember some key points.

Once she was reborn, Concubine Yu used these vague memories to trace her origins.

Not to mention, it works well.

At least, on the Buddha’s birthday, Concubine Yu “found out” something——

"Mr. Wen, it turns out that you entered the palace on the Buddha's birthday!"

Moreover, based on the information returned from the investigation, Concubine Yu also speculated: "Sure enough, this matter has something to do with the old woman Xie."

"This old woman really deserves to die."

Today, when Concubine Yu mentioned Concubine Xie, she was no longer simply "disgusted with being stupid" or despised her for having a bad background.

But there is hatred from the previous life.

In her last life, Concubine Xie promoted that little bitch of the Wen family to compete with her, Concubine Yu.

Out of filial piety, or because he was really in love with the Wen family, Min Huang actually showed great favor to the Wen family.

A lowly servant girl was conferred all the way by Min Huang and ascended to the throne of a noble concubine.

The position of this noble concubine was "helped" by Concubine Yu.

It can be said that the Wen family rose to the top by stepping on the bones of Concubine Yu.

Concubine Yu's number one enemy is Min Huang, and her second-ranked enemy is the Wen family. A top-notch mother-in-law like Concubine Xie can only be ranked third!
As for Queen Gu, Concubine Yu had never hated her. On the contrary, she pitied her.
