Traveling to the ancient harem

Chapter 332 Your good looks are in vain

The Hall of Nourishing Heart.

Huang Ye really admired how thick-skinned Concubine Lin was. Even though the Emperor and the eldest princess had spoken so harshly to her, she refused to leave and sat here talking about this and that.

She was embarrassed for her.

The emperor also found her an eyesore and only spoke to Huang Ye and the princess.

"Ting'er, father wants to discuss something with you."

The emperor thought that he should make the decision here today, lest Concubine Lin would not give up and nag him to no end.

Looking at the eldest princess's confused eyes, the emperor hardened his heart.

"Father wants you to live with Concubine Du of Feiyu Palace. She will teach you in the future. Are you willing?"

The eldest princess did not directly answer the emperor's question, but asked a question that she was most concerned about.

"Father, can I play with Lady Huang in the future?"

"of course can."

The emperor felt that this was not a problem at all.

"Then I'd like to live in Feiyu Palace."

The eldest princess said obediently.

"Good boy, you are really a good child of your father."

The emperor was very happy. He had thought that he would have to spend a lot of time and effort to get her to agree, but he did not expect it to go so smoothly. It seemed that the yellow leaves played an important role.

At this moment, she felt that no matter what the matter was, as long as she touched these yellow leaves, she could solve it smoothly.

The position of queen... isn't it for the most capable?

Forget it, let’s talk about it in a few years. Concubine Du manages the harem very well now, and he feels at ease to leave the eldest princess to her.

As for the yellow leaf, she is still young and hasn't figured it out yet, so he will wait patiently for her to grow up.

Concubine Lin had no idea what the emperor was thinking. Although she hated him very much in her heart, she still put on a hypocritical smile on the surface.

"If Sister Du knew, I wonder how happy she would be."

Yingxiangxuan.

Xu Rou's life has been full of ups and downs during this period.

Ever since she stopped the emperor that day, he fell ill the next day. She also saw the imperial doctors coming in and out. She was so scared that she shrank in the room and dared not come out.

She sent Qiu Die out to investigate the situation. She had a hunch that the emperor's illness might be related to the bug.

Before Qiu Die could find out what had happened, Concubine Shu was arrested and Prince Qing ran away. What else was there that Xu Rou didn't understand?

It was Concubine Shu... It was Concubine Shu who wanted to kill the Emperor through me.

Xu Rou knew that she might have been exposed, and she was very scared that the eunuch Yu would come and arrest her and take her to the Ministry of Punishment.

At the same time, she felt very aggrieved. She had no intention of harming the emperor. She loved the emperor so much that she didn't want to hurt him.

She was just bewitched by the old woman, Concubine Shu, and wanted to win the emperor's favor. What did she do wrong?

Xu Rou hid in Yingxiangxuan in fear and did not dare to come out, but when the matter was settled, no one came to arrest her.

She started to wonder if she was being too suspicious. Concubine Shu's affairs had nothing to do with her at all.

The more Xu Rou thought about it, the more she felt that her guess was correct. She was no longer afraid now. Instead, she was filled with anger. She was very, very angry.

A lot of things happened in the palace during this period of time. In addition to the matter of Concubine Shu, that bitch Huang Ziye was actually promoted, and she was promoted above her level. How could she tolerate this?

Although it was publicly stated that she had made great contributions in saving the emperor, Xu Rou certainly did not believe it.

She doesn't even know how capable this bitch is, so she's just fooling others. But Xu Rou is sober.

Although Xu Rou was extremely angry, she did not dare to go to Ning Yuxuan to make trouble. That place was too close to the retired emperor, and she was afraid that the emperor would have a bad impression of her if he knew about it.

What followed was the Queen's downfall. The Queen was deposed, so quickly that no one was prepared. But this did not affect Xu Rou's excitement. Now that the Queen was deposed, didn't she have a chance?

Who in the harem has an advantage over her? The emperor's biological mother is her aunt. Although she made a mistake and was confined by the emperor, no one dares to look down on the Cining Palace.

Cining Palace.

Since the Queen Mother heard the news that the Queen had been deposed, she has been eating well and sleeping well every day. She has changed her previous gloomy image and become more amiable.

When Xu Rou arrived at the Cining Palace, as expected, she saw Shi Yaoyao there talking with the empress dowager.

She curled her lips and looked at Shi Yaoyao who was bowing to her with disdain.

Humph... Don't think that you will be successful by sticking to her aunt. With her, the empress dowager's own niece, there is no way she will have a turn.

Shi Yaoyao has become accustomed to Xu Rou's expression during this period of time, and doesn't care about her disdain.

If she wanted to be a superior person, she had to have a ladder, and the Queen Mother was that ladder.

"Rou'er is here."

The empress dowager smiled happily when she saw her niece from her mother's side.

During this period, Rouer has become more sensible and obedient, which makes her feel that her idea may succeed.

"Rou'er, you need to get the emperor to come to your Yingxiang Pavilion more often. Now the position of empress is vacant...you need to pay more attention to it."

The Queen Mother's meaning was very clear, Xu Rou could give it a try for that position.

Xu Rou gets angry when talking about this.

"Aunt, Rou'er has tried her best, but the emperor just won't come to Yingxiangxuan, and Rou'er can't do anything about it."

In fact, Xu Rou also had some guesses in her mind. Maybe it was because the emperor disliked her aunt that she was implicated by her aunt. The emperor even disliked her, his aunt's niece.

The empress dowager was also worried when this was mentioned. Her son seemed to have crawled out of her belly. He was never polite to her, and she did not dare to use her mother's name to pressure him.

Strictly speaking, the Queen Mother is very afraid of the Emperor now.

"That's because you are useless. It's such a waste of your good looks."

The Queen Mother took her anger out on Xu Rou. If this niece was capable, she wouldn't still be under house arrest.

It seems that my plan is correct, and I still have to take a two-pronged approach.

"Aunt, do you think Huang Ziye really had a great contribution in saving the emperor? How come her position was promoted so quickly?"

Seeing that the Queen Mother was angry, Xu Rou cleverly changed the subject and picked the person the Queen Mother hated the most.

"That Huangpin must die, and her death must be very tragic."

Speaking of Huang Ye, the Queen Mother began to grit her teeth. She was now thinking about the hundreds of ways that Concubine Huang could die every day.

"Aunt, I'm no longer Concubine Huang, I'm Concubine Ye now."

Xu Rou carefully reminded the Queen Mother.

"You think I don't know, useless thing? You have been in the palace for so long and you haven't made any progress at all. And you still have the nerve to criticize others."

The Queen Mother was so angry that she would suffocate to death if she didn't find someone to vent her anger on.

Although the Queen was deposed and Concubine Shu was captured, which made her feel relieved, but no one made her feel as nervous as Concubine Huang when she thought of her.

It can be said that as long as Concubine Huang lives, she will be a thorn in the empress dowager's side.

Xu Rou listened to the Queen Mother's scolding with grievance and did not dare to talk back. She knew that if she said one more word, the Queen Mother would throw something at her.

"Please calm down, Empress Dowager. Sister Xu came here to accompany you out of filial piety. You should be happy."

Shi Yaoyao quickly changed the subject. The empress dowager trusted her very much now and liked to listen to everything she said.
