[Oh no~] Su He retreated tactically.

Yinzhen, with a smug look on his face, moved his own face forward as well.

"Since my beloved concubine has invited me, I will listen. However, I am old and my ears are not very good. I can't hear clearly through my clothes~"

【Huh? I&*¥%beep~~~~ I messed up. 】

Su He was in a daze and seemed to hear a rooster crowing.

[Dog Emperor, damn fat orange, I wish you a sudden death soon! ]

Yinzhen looked at the unconscious Su He with a smile on his face. He called for some water, washed both Su He and himself, then hugged Su He and fell asleep.

The two of them were sleeping soundly, but the harem was in an uproar again.

The Emperor went to Concubine Qi's place last night, and there was a small disturbance in the harem.

Everyone thought that Concubine Qi had made a big mistake or was disliked by the Emperor, but unexpectedly, the Emperor actually went to Concubine Qi's place at night and did not leave.

What's even more outrageous is that it's already noon and the emperor hasn't gotten up yet.

The concubines were talking to the Queen in Jingren Palace. Concubine Li saw that Concubine Qi's seat was empty and started to make a sarcastic remark.

"Why is Concubine Qi, who is never late, late today?"

"I remember that Concubine Qi used to come to the Queen's palace every day to wear flowers for the Queen, and she was a role model for the harem."

"It seems that Concubine Qi has been coming to pay respects to the Queen on time for more than half a year now. I guess Concubine Qi hasn't given the Queen a flower in her hair for a long time."

A hint of coldness flashed across the queen's eyes, and then she immediately put on a warm smile, "Concubine Qi is not my maid, so how can you wear flowers for me every day?"

"Last time, Concubine Qi told me that she is old and can't get up early."

"Jiang Fuhai, go to Concubine Qi's palace and see if she is sick. Why hasn't she come yet?"

Lipin sneered, "Empress, why do you need me to go there? Isn't Rouchang here? Isn't she from Concubine Qi's palace? She should know best!"

Before An Lingrong could answer, Shen Meizhuang stood up and said, "Your Majesty, Concubine Rou came to my palace very early this morning. I'm sure she doesn't know how Concubine Qi is doing."

Everyone in the harem knew that the emperor stayed overnight in Changchun Palace last night. Noble Lady Shen also knew it. Now that Concubine Qi was not around, she wanted to prevent others from bullying Lingrong.

Just as Lipin was about to retort, she heard Huafei speak.

"Lipin is so presumptuous. Are you teaching the Empress how to do things? Shen Guiren is right. Rou Changzai is not a maid in Qi Fei's palace. How can she know how Qi Fei is?"

Concubine Li quickly lowered her head. Ever since she was in the palace, Concubine Li had been afraid of Concubine Hua. Even though she had now joined the Queen's team, she still did not dare to go against Concubine Hua.

The queen nodded to Jiang Fuhai, and Jiang Fuhai stepped out.

Concubine Hua touched her headdress and said, "If the Queen doesn't have anything to do, I will go back. The chairs in Jingren Palace are too hard. The Queen didn't even bother to put some cushions on them. My waist is hurting."

"Hua Fei, please wait."

"What are you waiting for?"

"Concubine Qi is never late, and she will never fail to come to pay respects. If anything happens to Concubine Qi, I won't have to ask someone to call my sister back."

Hua Fei had not sat for a while when Jiang Fuhai came trotting in.

"Replying to the Queen, Concubine Qi is fine, but..."

"Just what, why are you hesitating so much?"

"It's just that Concubine Qi hasn't gotten up yet, and Eunuch Su told me that Concubine Qi might not be able to come and pay her respects today."

"Eunuch Su? Is the Emperor here?"

"Yes, the emperor should not have left since last night."

"Concubine Qi is so outrageous!"

Except for Concubine Hua, all the other concubines knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, please calm down."

"Why is the Queen so angry?"

The Queen felt a little confused when she saw that Concubine Hua didn't seem angry.

Based on Hua Fei's previous temperament, she was afraid that her reaction would be greater than her own. She originally wanted Hua Fei to make the gun, but unexpectedly, Hua Fei had no reaction at all.

"Let's all go back."

Jianqiu saw that everyone had left, and then she spoke softly, "Your Majesty, the people in front of the emperor are very tight-lipped. Even Xiao Xiazi didn't reveal why Concubine Qi was crying. Changchun Palace is like an iron barrel now. Our people can't get in at all."

"Can't get in? Someone died, so there's room for him."

"My lady, I'm afraid that's not possible now. Concubine Qi also has power in the palace. Although it seems that Concubine Qi doesn't care much, I don't know why, but I feel like everything is under Concubine Qi's control."

"Really? Now that spring has arrived, let's go and have a good chat with the Queen Mother!"

The Empress Dowager has not been in good health recently. It might be due to the change of seasons or her age. Her body cannot adapt well for a while, so naturally she doesn’t pay much attention to the affairs of the harem.

"Madam, I heard that you have not been feeling well recently, so I brought you some hundred-year-old mountain ginseng that I found outside the palace a while ago."

"Well, you are thoughtful. Why did the Queen decide to come here today?"

"Your Majesty is busy with many things every day, and I want to do more to show my filial piety to you."

The Queen Mother nodded in satisfaction. "You, your mind is in the wrong place. I am fine. You should be concerned about the Emperor."

The queen's face was full of bitterness, "My Queen Mother, even if I have the heart, I am powerless!"

The Queen Mother saw it and knew that the Queen had something going on today.

"Tell me, what happened?"
