The whole harem was in a state of excitement today.
No reason, just because the emperor personally ordered that Wu Meiren was successful in treating the empress dowager, and was promoted to Zhaoyi two levels in a row, and entered the main hall of Tingli courtyard!
In Zhuang Ning Palace, the Queen Mother felt relieved after knowing the news.
She smiled and said to Nanny Qin: "The Ai family has always asked the emperor to reward the martial girl, but he refused. He said that he was not in a hurry and wanted to go back and think about it for a while. The Ai family thought he was using an excuse to shirk. It turned out that he was waiting here."
The Queen Mother couldn't help but smile while stroking her palms.
It was the Queen Mother who discovered that the Emperor was staying in the west wing of Tingli Courtyard, but she had seen no movement these days, and she still couldn't help but wonder what the Emperor meant, whether he didn't want to reward him or if he couldn't.
Now that she is fine, the Queen Mother is even more convinced: "It seems that the Ai family is right. Girl Wu will definitely be able to shoulder the expectations that the Ai family has for her."
This idea was discussed seriously with Aunt Qin in private on the night when the Queen Mother returned to her first day of greetings.
"The Ai family previously thought that the harem today is a harmonious one and is much better than before. Even a little quarrel occasionally is not harmful. Now I know that these thoughts are wrong."
She mentioned how Concubine Li and others made things difficult for Lihua: "You said that the Ai family had rewarded them with so many good things in the past, but they were never satisfied. When they saw Wu girl getting a good thing, they wanted to take it away. They are so short-sighted."
Aunt Qin sighed secretly and replied: "Everyone likes good things, no wonder the empress and others."
The Queen Mother shook her head: "That's the case, but the Ai family knows that people's hearts are complex, greedy, and there are many people who want to destroy what they can't get, especially in the harem, where evil thoughts are even harder to contain."
She sighed leisurely and saw clearly: "There is still trouble in the Ai family now. If no one suppresses it in the future, the Ai family will still be in chaos a hundred years from now."
Aunt Qin hurriedly comforted her: "My queen is in good health and has a long life. Why do you need to say such depressing words?"
The Queen Mother waved her hand: "No matter how healthy you are, there will be a day, not to mention that the Ai family also wants to have someone to take care of it so that they can have less worries."
Nanny Qin was startled: "Mother, what do you mean?"
The Queen Mother smiled slightly: "What do you think of Wu Yatou?"
What she can do for the emperor is to choose someone to accompany him and let him take over her burden steadily.
From then on, she could be a hands-off shopkeeper and go out for a walk whenever she wanted. She felt at ease when someone was with the emperor.
After listening to the Queen Mother's words, Nanny Qin laughed and said: "The Queen Mother, if you don't take a break in the past few days, I will almost lose my ability to resist Master Wu."
The Queen Mother retorted: "Nonsense, the Ai family sees that she is doing well, but she is not focusing on it. But it's okay, now that people are on the cusp of the storm, let's put it away first, lest this girl has to check the daily life of the Ai family again
, to hone the mourning family."
Aunt Qin teased: "Madam, Master Wu cares about you, but what you do to Master Wu is called grinding."
The Queen Mother stared blankly when she heard this, and then the two of them looked at each other and smiled, feeling very comfortable.
The Queen Mother was in a good mood, but most of the people in the harem were in a bad mood.
When Chen Sisi got the news, he sat down on the chair with a stunned expression.
She said blankly: "I am trapped in a dilemma now, but she has to be promoted." It was the same person who sealed it!
"What did Wu Meiren do? Isn't she just going to run and jump with my aunt? I can do that too. How could she help my aunt recover and be so successful that he got promoted?"
Chen Sisi still didn't want to believe that the Wu Li whom she hated the most was Feng Zhaoyi, but she was trapped in the quagmire looking for the person who harmed her, and she was terrified all day long and couldn't get out.
How willing she was!
"Master, it's time to call Wu Zhaoyi." The maid beside him reminded softly.
"Shut up!" Chen Sisi suddenly turned his head and shouted sharply, with a sinister look on his face.
The maidservant was so frightened that she knelt on the ground to plead guilty, but Chen Sisi seemed not to see her.
Concubine Li was crazy with jealousy. When she heard the palace maid below reporting back, she carried boxes of rewards to Tingli Courtyard like running water.
Her eyes were red: "What a beautiful woman, what a beautiful woman. No wonder she stayed here after paying her respects today. It was just to curry favor with the Queen Mother so that she could be rewarded by Lord Long Live. Okay!"
Concubine Li had completely figured it out. It was said in the palace that she was the best at asking for rewards for behaving well with the Queen Mother, and she was mocking her shamelessly, openly and secretly.
She didn't take it seriously at that time, but felt complacent about it.
The reward she received based on her ability, others can also go there if they have the ability.
But now that there was someone who was a hundred times and a thousand times more capable than her, Libi felt panicked in her heart, and she felt what others felt from her.
This was granted by Long Live Lord. It was the first time he was promoted to a palace concubine in his own name three years after he ascended the throne. You can imagine its weight.
Concubine Li's breasts rose and fell: "I just coaxed the Queen Mother to favor her, but actually coaxed the Queen Mother to let Lord Long Live promote her two levels in a row!"
She has good intentions and good methods. If she can upgrade two levels in a row, she will be one of the four concubines.
When Concubine Li thought of this, she almost went crazy with jealousy.
In Yucuixuan, Yu Jieyu became more and more panicked as she thought about it, and her palms became cold with panic: "Bicai Bicai, I was waiting in the pavilion this morning. It doesn't look like I want to embarrass her, right?"
How did she know that she could be slapped in the face so quickly? If she had known that this damn Wu beauty, no, should be named Wu Zhaoyi, would immediately surpass her and slap her face hard.
She wouldn't mess with this person even if she messed with no one.
Bicai couldn't bear to lie to her master: "You were a little aggressive towards Wu Zhaoyi this morning. At that time, Sanfu wanted to..."
"But it's not difficult!" Yu Jieyu pinched Bicai's arm and interrupted: "Didn't she avoid it? Sanfu didn't kick her, and her leg was broken instead. She should be the one to make things difficult for me.
That’s it.”
Bicai endured the pain and reminded her: "Master, there are rumors in the palace that you and Wu Zhaoyi are at odds. Now that she has been promoted, she will turn against you in the future, so you should be prepared."
Yu Jieyu said sharply: "Who said that I am at odds with her? Is it that bitch Libi?"
Bicai shook her head. What happened in the morning spread throughout the harem, and she didn't know who spread the news.
"Master, but Concubine Li was not present at that time, so I thought it might not be her."
But the more Yu Jieyu thought about it, the more she felt: "Who else could be there besides her? She loves to gossip so much, and she hates others the most, that bitch! But I was unjustly accused, and I was also provoked by that bitch.
ah!"
If that bitch hadn't heard from somewhere that she had made things difficult for Wu Meiren before, but was frightened away by Wu Meiren, he would have kept laughing at her and ridiculing her.
How could Yu Jieyu stay here just to give Wu Meiren a big show of strength?
As for the thing she left behind to embarrass Wu Meiren, Libi knew about it, and who else could have spread it besides this bitch.
In the Tingli courtyard, Lihua looked at the boxes and cages and felt that the evildoer was really a coward.
This man issued an order just as he said he would, without any warning.
At that time, she was arguing with Yu Jieyu in the pavilion that was necessary for Zhuangning Palace and the harem, but she never thought that the evil edict would arrive.
