Ah, you traveled through time too?
Chapter 269 Gift
Concubine Li bowed slightly and said in a gentle tone: "Sister Xianfei, the emperor's birthday celebration is coming soon. I hope to cooperate with you to ensure that the celebration goes smoothly."
After hearing this, Concubine Xian looked at Concubine Li coldly, with obvious displeasure in her tone: "Concubine Li, usually you and I work independently, why do you suddenly want to cooperate this time?"
Concubine Li suppressed her dissatisfaction and said with a smile: "Sister Xianfei, the birthday celebration is an annual event in the harem and it affects the emperor's mood. Only by working together can we ensure that everything goes smoothly."
Xian Fei smiled slightly, with a hint of coldness in her eyes: "Li Fei, your words sound nice, but I know how you think of me in your heart. Are you here to use me or to drag me into this?"
Concubine Li's heart tightened, knowing that Concubine Xian had been dissatisfied with her for a long time. She pondered for a moment and decided to be frank: "Sister Xianfei, I have no ill intentions. I just hope that we can work together to satisfy the emperor. As for the misunderstandings in the past, I am willing to let it go."
Xian Fei looked at Li Fei coldly, with a hint of sarcasm in her tone: "Li Fei, you are speaking frankly. However, I have to admit that the birthday celebration is indeed a matter of great importance and cannot afford to make any mistakes."
She paused, a trace of thought flashed in her eyes: "In this case, I will cooperate with you for the time being. However, you must remember that our cooperation is limited to this. Don't think of taking this opportunity to win me over."
Concubine Li smiled slightly, nodded and said, "Thank you for your understanding and support, Sister Xianfei. I will keep it in mind."
Xian Fei nodded calmly: "Okay, in this case, let's discuss the specific arrangements."
In the following time, Concubine Li and Concubine Xian discussed the details of the birthday celebration. Although the relationship between the two was not harmonious, for the common goal, they temporarily put aside their prejudices and reached a consensus on cooperation.
After the meeting, Concubine Li left Concubine Xian's palace, feeling relieved. She knew that although the cooperation was somewhat reluctant, it at least ensured the smooth progress of the celebration.
After returning to her palace, Concubine Li summoned her trusted maids and began to implement the details of the discussion with Concubine Xian. While they were busy, they discussed Concubine Xian's attitude and possible subsequent impact.
"Your Majesty, although Concubine Xian has agreed to cooperate, her attitude is clearly hostile. We must be careful not to be used by her," the trusted maid reminded.
Concubine Li nodded, a firm look flashed in her eyes: "You are right. Although we are temporarily cooperating, we can't take it lightly. We must do our own thing well and not give her any chance to take advantage of us."
At the same time, Concubine Xian was in her own palace, thinking about cooperating with Concubine Li. Although she agreed to cooperate on the surface, she was still wary of Concubine Li in her heart.
Concubine Xian summoned her maids and said coldly, "Concubine Li came to me for cooperation this time, obviously wanting to use my power. We must be careful not to be led by her."
The maids nodded and said they would act cautiously to ensure everything went smoothly.
Xian Fei smiled slightly, with a hint of coldness in her eyes: "This birthday celebration, we must not only ensure that it goes smoothly, but also let Li Fei know that I am not so easy to use."
In the following days, although Concubine Li and Concubine Xian cooperated, they were still wary of each other. They were each careful to ensure the smooth progress of the celebration while not giving the other party any chance to take advantage of them.
Finally, the Emperor's birthday celebration arrived as scheduled. The palace was decorated with lanterns and filled with a festive atmosphere. Concubine Li and Concubine Xian jointly hosted the banquet to ensure that everything was arranged properly.
Concubine Li behaved gracefully at the banquet, and handled every detail in an orderly manner. The banquet decorations she carefully arranged made the entire hall look particularly gorgeous and solemn.
Xian Fei was in charge of the overall planning of the celebration. She arranged a brilliant performance that won the praise of everyone. Although she was wary of Li Fei, she remained calm and composed on the surface.
At the climax of the celebration, the concubines came forward to present gifts and perform for the emperor. Concubine Li and Concubine Xian also prepared exquisite gifts to express their blessings to the emperor.
When Concubine Li presented the gift she had prepared, the emperor smiled and said, "Concubine Li, your gift is very exquisite. I like it very much."
Concubine Li bowed slightly and said gently: "Thank you for your compliment, Your Majesty. I just hope to help you solve your problems."
Then, Concubine Xian presented the gift she had prepared, and the emperor smiled with satisfaction: "Concubine Xian, your gift is also very special. I am very satisfied."
Xianfei smiled slightly and said respectfully: "Thank you for your praise, Your Majesty. I am willing to do my best for you."
After the celebration, Concubine Li and Concubine Xian returned to their respective palaces, but they both felt a complex emotion in their hearts. Although they cooperated on the surface, they were still full of vigilance and alertness towards each other.
After returning to the palace, Concubine Li summoned her trusted maids and began to summarize the gains and losses of the celebration. As they discussed, they thought about how to be invincible in future struggles.
"Your Majesty, although the celebration went smoothly, Concubine Xian's attitude is clearly unfriendly. We must be more careful and not let her find any handle on us," the trusted maid reminded.
Concubine Li nodded, with a firm look in her eyes: "You are right. We must always remain vigilant and not give her any chance."
At the same time, Concubine Xian was also summarizing the celebration in her own palace. Although she was wary of Concubine Li, she had to admit that Concubine Li's ability should not be underestimated.
Concubine Xian summoned her maids and said coldly: "Although Concubine Li's performance this time is good, we can't take it lightly. She is very ambitious, and we must always be vigilant."
The maids nodded and said they would act cautiously to ensure everything went smoothly.
