At night, when midnight was approaching, everything in the harem was completely silent, and everyone in the harem was asleep.
Concubine Yuwen finally came quietly.
"Why are you here so late?" Yun Xiyao looked at Concubine Yuwen dissatisfied, with a stormy look on her face.
She had been sitting here waiting since someone delivered the news. She didn't even have the heart to eat dinner. She felt as if she had been scratched by a cat, and all kinds of emotions kept tumbling around, making her restless.
Unexpectedly, she waited for three hours, from dusk to midnight. Therefore, there was a fire burning in her heart, and the fire burned stronger and stronger during the waiting time, making her endure it.
She couldn't help but want to find someone to vent to, but she tried her best not to say it out loud on the spot.
Concubine Yuwen looked embarrassed, "Sister, the emperor has an order not to let anyone in. My sister is also afraid that others will find out, so she waited until this moment."
Concubine Yuwen is three years younger than Yun Xiyao. When there are no outsiders, she calls Yun Xiyao her sister to show her closeness.
Yun Xiyao smiled coldly, "Humph! When did you see me as so incompetent!"
Although Yun Xiyao was grounded, Dongfang Chen also issued an order not to allow anyone to enter or exit Fengxiang Palace. However, Yun Xiyao had been camped in the harem for so long, and her informants were everywhere in the harem, including around the emperor. Therefore, pass on
It is very easy to put a message in or out of a person.
Concubine Yuwen smiled coquettishly: "Sister, this is just in case."
Yun Xiyao curled her lips coldly and pointed to the chair next to her, "Sit down."
"Thank you, sister." Concubine Yuwen smiled and sat down next to Yun Xiyao.
"I heard..." Yun Xiyao said casually while lowering her head to drink tea, "The emperor often goes to your place recently?"
Concubine Yuwen's eyes flashed slightly, and then she returned to her usual smiling expression, and said with a smile: "Wang Zhaoyi has been very heavy recently, so the emperor has been spending a lot of time in the palaces of other concubines, so naturally he spends more time with his sister than with his sister.
More than usual."
A very clever answer. However, Yun Xiyao felt increasingly depressed.
"That's good." The more resentful she felt, the more beautiful the smile appeared on Yun Xiyao's face, "Have you been able to cope with the affairs in the palace recently?"
"Yes. Thanks to the fact that I often helped my sister in the past, I can handle everything now." Concubine Yuwen replied with a smile.
"Then thank you for your hard work, sister. With my sister here, I won't be in a hurry when I return to take charge of palace affairs in the future." As she said this, Yun Xiyao raised her eyes and stared closely into Concubine Yuwen's eyes.
The smile on Concubine Yuwen's face did not change at all, she just lowered her eyes very obediently: "This is what a sister should do."
The smile on Yun Xiyao's face couldn't help but become colder, "I heard that you replaced many old people?"
The expression on Concubine Yuwen's face paused, then she raised her eyes and looked at Yun Xiyao with a calm face: "Yes. Those people made a mistake and it spread to the ears of the emperor. My sister had no choice but to do so. After all, my sister is in charge of the affairs of the harem.
There are many pairs of eyes staring up and down, and my sister doesn't dare to slack off at all. I just don't know who among those people is my sister, and when the time comes, my sister will find a way to restore them to their original positions."
Looking at Concubine Yuwen's sincere eyes, Yun Xiyao suspected that she had wrongly blamed the other party. But how could she be deceived by such low-end acting skills...
