Rebirth of the fire-baked concubine

Chapter 199 The Temptation of the Empress

　"Your Majesty, speak up when you have something to say. There is nothing to say in front of mother." Mrs. Yuwen's expression became more serious.

After a long time, Imperial Concubine Yuwen sighed, as if she had made up her mind, she said after exhaling: "This time, it seems that the emperor will not bypass the empress so easily."

"What do you mean?" Mrs. Yuwen was so shocked that she almost stood up, "Your Majesty, don't talk nonsense. The Empress Dowager is so favored by the Emperor, and she is backed by the Yun Family and the Yuwen Family. The Emperor's anger is only temporary..."

"Mother..." Imperial Concubine Yuwen's eyes suddenly became very serious, she looked at Mrs. Yuwen without blinking, "It is different now, the emperor's favorite is Wang Zhaoyi, and he spends more than half of a month in Wang Zhaoyi's room." In addition, the empress has repeatedly made mistakes..."

"..." Mrs. Yuwen's lips twitched, as if she wanted to refute, but she didn't say anything in the end.

Concubine Yuwen looked straight at Mrs. Yuwen, then slowly stretched out her hands, and gently placed them on Mrs. Yuwen's hands, "Mother, there is one more important matter to discuss with you..."

"What's the matter?" Mrs. Yuwen seemed to have not recovered from the shock just now, with a slightly dazed expression, she asked subconsciously after hearing the words.

Imperial Concubine Yuwen glanced back at a nanny and two maids standing behind her, and said calmly: "Go out first, and go to the small kitchen to cook some of Mother's favorite dishes, Mother will stay here for lunch today. "

"Yes." The three backed out.

Seeing that Concubine Yuwen even retreated from the nanny and maid who followed her into the palace, Mrs. Yuwen's expression became more and more bewildered.

Concubine Yuwen held her mother's hand, slowly approached her, and then whispered as if whispering something: "Mother, some time ago, the emperor hinted at me that he wanted me to take over the position of empress."

Mrs. Yuwen shrank her hands, her face turned pale with shock.Concubine Yuwen put a huge stone in her mother's heart, but she let go of her hand as if nothing happened, lowered her eyes, and picked up tea to sip slowly.

Mrs. Yuwen looked at the daughter in front of her in horror, her lips parted and closed, as if she was quite frightened.However, after all, she was a wealthy lady who was used to big scenes, and Mrs. Yuwen quickly calmed down.

"Is what you said true?" Mrs. Yuwen's voice was serious and dignified.

"Of course it's true." Imperial Concubine Yuwen raised her eyes and nodded heavily.

Mrs. Yuwen's eyes flickered violently, then she lowered her head as if she was hiding something, and brought the teacup to her lips.However, the shaking teacup revealed her nervousness.

After staggering and drinking a few sips of tea, Mrs. Yuwen regained her composure, raised her eyes to look at her daughter, and asked with some difficulty: "Your Majesty...what did you say at that time?"

Concubine Yuwen lowered her eyes, looked at the teacup, and said in a low voice: "The emperor has told me several times to manage the affairs of the harem with care, not to treat it as a temporary management and take it lightly or be timid, but to take over with a long-term heart. Do your best."

Mrs. Yuwen's eyes flickered a few times, and she said hesitantly: "Then... it doesn't mean that the emperor is going to give you the position of queen, maybe, it's just telling you to be careful."

"No, mother," Imperial Concubine Yuwen shook her head, "If it's just like this, my daughter won't be so misunderstood..."
