The queen is charming, but powerful ministers lure her to seize power and usurp the throne

Chapter 23 The Art of the Emperor 4
"Sister Shu Fei looks so good. She was very haggard yesterday. Look, she looks like a flower today."

Concubine Shu knew that the queen was making fun of herself for what happened yesterday.

"Your Majesty, you didn't have any rest last night, okay?" Concubine Shu asked knowingly.

Su Zhesang could see through her thoughts at a glance. She would have been angry before, but now Zhesang also looked bad as Concubine Shu wished.

"No flowers are ever red. I used to think peonies were beautiful, but after looking at them all night yesterday, I felt that the wild roses from Leng Palace might be even better."

Concubine Shu frowned.

She understood what the queen meant and used peonies to describe herself and roses to refer to Mrs. An, saying that she could not compare to Mrs. An who came from the cold palace.

"Really? My sister thought that His Majesty didn't think so." Concubine Shu was full of confidence, but felt a little weak in her heart.

Although the emperor was very affectionate last night, he not only said that he wanted to make up for the neglect he had given him for so long, but also said that no matter what happens in the future, he would take time to see her every month.

Therefore, Concubine Shu was able to maintain her previous aloofness today, because she still felt that she had an irreplaceable position in the emperor's heart.

There were many warblers and swallows in the harem, but they were all for the emperor's temporary amusement, and he turned around and forgot about them.

As for the queen, her father had already told her that the queen was the least threatening in the harem. The reason why Xibohou would risk it again to help Fu Rong was because they had an agreement - Xibohou did not ask for another official position, but he hoped that he could A queen named Feng appeared.

Fu Rong thought for a long time and reluctantly agreed.

The Queen is not a threat, but what about the others?For example, Mrs. An.

During the long period of being left out in the cold, she reviewed it, which started after Mrs. An entered the palace.

Su Zhesang saw the hesitation in her eyes, "You don't know what your Majesty thinks of me, but I know that your Majesty didn't even blink when he was picking flowers when he faced the pricking thorns."

"Sometimes, it's true that the authorities are crazy and arrogant." Su Zhesang said lightly and walked towards the noisy crowd.

There was a trace of a vengeful smile on Lu Yi's face, and his dark eyes were bright.

After Su Qiong'an entered the palace, she had been staying quietly and quietly in Yangxin Pavilion. Under the hustle and bustle of the queen's favor, apart from causing a bloody storm when she entered the palace, she was considered unknown after that.

The flower viewing party had already started for about half an hour, and Mrs. An, who everyone thought would not come, arrived late.

The clouds are like clothes, the flowers are like faces, the spring breeze is blowing the threshold, and the dew is thick.If we hadn't seen him at the top of Qunyu Mountain, he would have met at Yaotai under the moon.As soon as Su Qiong'an appeared, the whole garden lost its color.

"Why are Sister An here? It's a hard time for Sister An to be pregnant, so don't be tired." Zhu Guiji greeted her very affectionately, as if she was older than her younger sister, as if they were really sisters with a deep friendship.

Su Zhesang, the younger sister who was truly related by blood, watched from a distance without saying a word.

It is human nature to follow the crowd.

Don't forget, this is the only pregnant person in the harem.

Behind Su Qiong'an was a fair and fat maid, who was the recently replaced maid Hong'er. Hong'er whispered in Mrs. An's ear, "This is Zhu Guiji."

Mrs. An nodded slightly, with a smile on her lips, and took Zhu Guiji's hand, "I have long heard that Sister Zhu has a beautiful appearance, but now I see that she is really like this. She is really a beautiful person with a kind heart."

"My elder sister is the most beautiful woman. How can I compare to my younger sister?"

Zhu Guiji was the first to step forward and break the deadlock. Others responded one after another and gathered around to praise her.

Mrs. An was surrounded by people, and her momentum was not inferior to that of the Queen.

Su Qiong'an is still the same as before. As long as she is around, Su Zhesang can't get any attention. For this, she always has various ways.

It's a pity that this time Su Zhesang no longer feels aggrieved and inferior. She is in a glorious position. The more beautiful the better, the more favored the better. It is best to be arrogant and instigate the emperor to depose her as the queen.

"Greetings to the Queen. I'm heavy, so I came slower. Your Majesty won't blame me for being slow, right?" Mrs. An said with a smile.

The queen looked at her hand protecting her lower abdomen, even though it was still very flat.She smiled, which was not much better than crying, "Of course not. Chongqing brought a chair before anyone else. You have two bodies, so be careful."

Su Qiong'an was very satisfied with Su Zhesang's emotional feedback.

The chair was brought, and Mrs. An was about to sit down, but Zhu Guiji stopped her.

"There is dust." Zhu Guiji smiled flatteringly, then took out a handkerchief and wiped it carefully.

"Sister An, you must be tired after standing for so long. Please sit down."

Mrs. An smiled slightly and clapped her hand, very satisfied.

Su Zhesang:...

Why didn't she see that Zhu Guiji had this talent before?

"The Queen is right, it is indeed a beautiful flower. It is not only beautiful but also extremely delicate. It's a pity that wild flowers are wild flowers and cannot be put on the stage." This is what Concubine Shu said to the Queen, but the meaning is to rush towards Mrs. Ann's.

Everyone's expressions were slightly different, and they all noticed that something was wrong in the atmosphere.

At this moment, Eunuch Xu's high-pitched voice broke the deadlock, "The Emperor has arrived——"

The bright yellow figure fell into the thousands of flowers, and they were all stained, but they didn't stop for anyone.

This is the emperor, this is the harem.

"Your Majesty, I came so late, I thought you were going to break your promise." Probably because of Mrs. An's stimulation, Concubine Shu took the lead to greet you.

She passed the queen, but this outrageous move was ignored by the emperor. The emperor showed a gentle smile and said, "My beloved concubine has spoken, how dare I not come."

"Your Majesty," Mrs. An shouted sadly.

"Why don't you stay in the palace and take good care of yourself."

"The palace is deserted, but here it is lively." Mrs. An felt aggrieved.

The emperor's heart trembled, and he couldn't say anything harsh to Su Qiong'an.

He turned to the queen and said, "You too, you're going to let her stand in the wind while she's pregnant?"

The warm wind blowing on May Day was extremely comfortable, and his love was too biased.

Just like that, in front of everyone, he threw the queen's face to the ground and stepped on it.

"It's my concubine who doesn't think well."

Concubine Shu looked at the queen without any temper.I just feel that I hate iron but cannot make it into steel.

"Your Majesty is so caring that you are confused. The sun is shining warmly, and your Majesty even asked someone to bring a chair to carry her around. Your Majesty is hiding her treasure in the temple, and she is afraid that she will get sick from the boredom."

Concubine Shu joked, without the slightest hint of jealousy in her expression.

The women in the harem have many twists and turns, and their acting skills are also top notch.

"That's what you said. Mrs. An, just have fun, but don't stay too long."

"I don't care, Your Majesty. I will go back now, so as not to spoil everyone's happiness." Mrs. An bent her knees slightly, with a cold expression on her face, and was about to lead people away.

The emperor knew that she was angry, and wanted to speak to comfort her, but she was too talkative, so he opened his mouth but said nothing.
