When Yun Xi returned to Cuiwei Palace, she lost her temper again, and all the palace officials on duty were punished. Cuiwei Palace was filled with complaints and everyone was miserable.
Another thing happened that night, Lu Mei suddenly received the imperial edict, and the next day she was named Mei Jieyu, on an equal footing with Qing Le.
The situation in the harem was changing rapidly. No one expected that Lu Mei, who had always had no sense of presence, would suddenly be favored by the emperor. She only slept with him for one night and became Jieyu the next day. This position was promoted too quickly.
That day, Chen Zhiqin and An Rong went to Yin Yue Pavilion to visit Shen Manyun. When they talked about this matter, they both felt that things were unpredictable.
An Rong smiled: "Didn't you realize that the two people who were suddenly promoted were promoted by the Queen Mother?"
Shen Manyun was stunned for a moment, then immediately realized: "An Rong is still careful and discovered the mystery. So many beauties in the palace are not threats, and the Queen Mother is the most annoying."
"I don't think so. Even if the Queen Mother wins the Emperor's heart again, the Emperor is unlikely to give him a status. After all, there is such a difference in their identities." An Rong replied softly.
"But the emperor can promote the queen mother. The result is the same. Mu Ci is always a threat, so we must find a way to get rid of this woman." Shen Manyun did not change his original intention.
An Rong just shook her head when she heard this, but did not persuade her any more.
The current Empress Dowager can be removed whenever she wants. Shen Cairen may have forgotten that it was because of the Empress Dowager that she was demoted from a third-grade Jieyu to a fifth-grade talented person.
Chen Zhiqin and Shen Manyun had the same idea, thinking that Mu Ci was a threat.
These two people may have forgotten how noble the status of the Queen Mother is. The more they want to get rid of Mu Ci, the greater the gap will be in their hearts in the future.
The news that Lu Mei was suddenly promoted finally reached the cold palace.
When Mu Ci heard the news, she was no longer as surprised as before. She already understood the emperor's true intention. In the end, the emperor still wanted to deal with her.
The harem was peaceful like this for two days. That night, Dugu Liancheng originally planned to go to Cuiwei Palace in Yunxi, but he didn't want to turn around halfway and said that he had received news from a certain palace maid that Mu Ci suddenly fell ill in the cold palace.
In this way, Mu Ci intercepted Yun Xi's people as a matter of course, and the emperor went to Chenxiang Palace.
After Yun Xi learned the news, he was naturally so angry that his eyes turned black.
It was enough for Hua Shang to overpower her. Even Mu Ci, who was in the cold palace, was uneasy and even tried to compete with her for the throne.
What puzzled her the most was that Mu Ci was in the cold palace, so how could someone help her spread the news and lure the emperor away from her palm?
Mu Ci, who was in Chenxiang Palace, actually took a rest early.
The nights are cold in winter, and hiding under the quilt is the warmest thing. Since the last time she was poisoned, and she took forbidden herbs, her body is no longer what it used to be.
Of course, she also cares about her body, so she pays more attention to health care. Fortunately, she is also young, and it only takes a few months to take care of her body.
Doctor Zhang was thoughtful and sent some medicines to Lenghsiang Palace, and even gave her some medical books.
She read medical books in her spare time, and time passed quickly.
When Dugu Liancheng arrived at Lengxiang Palace, Mu Ci had already fallen asleep.
Of course Yingchun and Sizhu knew that Dugu Liancheng was coming, but they were blocked from the palace by Dugu Liancheng's people and had no way to inform the empress. They could only watch the emperor enter the palace, not knowing whether he would steal fragrances and jade.
