Empress looks forward to falling out of favor every day

Chapter 524
When Cheng Jin said this, Xia Yichu felt inexplicably guilty.

He looked away uncomfortably, and then said viciously, "Anyway, anyway, I just don't like him, my ass is still hurting right now!"

Cheng Jin said in the tone of an old man, "Isn't it just an ass, the pain will pass after a few days, you will get used to it when you first come here, don't take it to heart."

He advised as someone who had been there.

But Xia Yichu obviously didn't listen.

Xiao Yueyao and Ye Mohan lived in Hongye Villa for a few days.

We are about to leave for the palace.

Cheng Jin got up early that day with the imperial guards and began to arrange it.

Xia Yichu was busy with people on this side, but when he looked up on the other side, he found a familiar figure standing beside a carriage.

Seriously and attentively counting the things sent to the carriage.

That seems to be a carriage that stores the things of the imperial concubine?
Xia Yichu didn't know when he came.

He licked his molars, and thought about where to go.

"Hey, little glutinous rice balls!"

Yuanyuan gave him a cold look, as if she didn't want to talk to him.

But the more this little eunuch behaved, the more energetic he became.

"Why are you ignoring me? I saw you at the racecourse that day."

Xia Yichu lazily leaned on the carriage, looking at Yuanyuan as if he was a stranger.

In order to let the other party take care of themselves.

He said whatever sentence was irritating.

"Hey, I found out that you are really good-looking, even better than those court ladies, so I said to others: Have you looked at that eunuch? You are really handsome."

The movements of Yuanyuan's hands paused, and she turned her head coldly to look over, as if she was about to get angry.

Xia Yichu looked at the little eunuch leisurely, wanting to hear how he jumped in anger.

However, suddenly there was a slight movement at the door.

It seemed to be a female voice.

very quiet.

The little eunuch in front of him was slightly stunned, the anger that had just gathered on his face dissipated instantly, and he quickly turned his head to look over.

Before Xia Yichu could react, the little eunuch in front of him had already stepped there.

Xia Yichu turned his head to look over, and saw His Majesty and Imperial Concubine walking out of it.

And the one who was talking just now was the imperial concubine.

Everyone knelt down to salute.

Xia Yichu withdrew his gaze from Yuanyuan's body, and knelt down along with the crowd.

Ye Mohan and Xiao Yueyao got into the carriage, and the team returning to Beijing set off vigorously.

When the sun was about to set, the team finally stopped at the gate of the palace.

Ye Mohan got out of the carriage first, then turned around and gently hugged Xiao Yueyao off the carriage, took his hand, Li Huan and other servants followed closely behind.

After entering the palace gate, Xiao Yueyao saw a dense group of people from a distance.

Blessing is moving towards them.

Headed by the Queen.

Xiao Yueyao took a special look and found that there was no concubine Zhen among the concubines who came.

Since Concubine Zhen held the power to control the six palaces, she must come to such an occasion.

Concubine Zhen would not miss a single thing to bring all the concubines to the ceremony and make her stand out.

But now, she didn't even see a person, Xiao Yueyao looked at the queen meaningfully.

Presumably, during the few days when she and Ye Mohan were out, many things happened in the palace.

Ye Mohan's icy eyes swept across the group of Yingying and Yanyan, and left without changing his expression, holding Xiao Yueyao's hand.

Cheng Jin looked at Ye Mohan and Xiao Yueyao's backs surrounded by the crowd.

Secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

The protection of going out this time is finally over.

Cheng Jin was about to leave, when he turned his head, he found Xia Yichu was still staring at the little eunuch nervously.

Cheng Jin patted him on the shoulder and said with emotion, "You, you are too obsessed with this. Just let this matter go. Don't take it to heart. I remember that you are not such a stingy person."

"Let's go." Cheng Jin muttered as he walked, "Anyway, after this time is over, you won't meet again."

Xia Yichu looked away resentfully, and followed Cheng Jin to leave.

—

Xiao Yueyao stayed in the Hall of Mental Cultivation for a while, and then insisted on going back to her palace.

No matter where it is, my own palace is the most comfortable.

On the way back, Xiao Yueyao asked about Concubine Zhen.

The matter between the queen and the concubine Zhen was raging, and Lu Chun was guarding outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation, listening to the eunuchs and maids talking about it.

"Your Majesty, this matter is really simple."

"This Concubine Zhen has a strong temper after all. Whenever her temper comes up or something goes wrong, she likes to beat and scold the servants in the palace."

"The empress took this matter to heart, and directly said that Concubine Zhen had misbehaved, and imprisoned her for three days just because of Concubine Zhen's high status."

"Those three days happened to be the time when the fathers-in-law wanted to deliver the ledger. Since the ledger couldn't be sent to Changxi Palace, Yai asked someone to send the ledger to Jiaofang Palace."

"Then the power to control the six palaces naturally fell into the queen's hands."

Xiao Yueyao didn't show any surprise at all.

Concubine Zhen can't beat the queen.

Sooner or later, the power of the six palaces will be in the hands of the queen.

It's just that this is a bit too fast.

Taking advantage of Ye Mohan's absence, the queen took the opportunity to seize power.

And because Concubine Zhen accepted bribes from other concubines, and couldn't send these concubines to Hongye Mountain Villa with His Majesty, she offended a group of people.

Of course no one will help her.

"Queen! You designed to harm me!"

Not far ahead, a voice suddenly sounded.

It was Zhenfei's voice.

Lu Chun raised her hand to stop Xiao Yueyao's sedan chair.

Xiao Yueyao was sitting on the sedan chair, and through the gaps in the leaves, she could vaguely see someone standing there.

The Queen's voice sounded coldly, "Concubine Zhen, I am the Queen, you must not call me by my first name."

Concubine Zhen was obviously already angry.

"What's wrong with me calling you by your name? What are you? Why do you put me in confinement, and why do you let them send the ledger to your Hall of Mental Cultivation."

"I am the queen! If you punish the servants, I will have the responsibility to discipline you and regulate your behavior."

"Why can't I control you?"

"Let's talk about it." The queen said leisurely, "You have been in confinement for three days, and they have nowhere to send this account book. What's wrong with sending it to this palace, can it be considered as a share for my sister? To save my sister from being tired. Seeing that your skin has not improved so much recently, how can you serve Your Majesty well?"

What the queen said was very nice.

But Concubine Zhen didn't buy it, "What about next month, and where should I send next month's account book? It should be me!"

The queen smiled meaningfully, "Naturally, you can send it wherever you want, don't you think so, sister."

The power to control the sixth house originally belonged to the empress.

Chu Yalan's words have already hinted clearly.

She hooked a smile, her brows and eyes were full of complacency, and she was about to lift her foot to leave.
