Refusing to let love take a back seat, the scumbag emperor actually seeks favor every day

"This crazy woman! Why!"

Li Yuwan has been suffering at the hands of Su Manman recently and was already very angry.

As a result, Zhao Chengyuan, who had been busy with various affairs recently, rarely came to her palace and asked her to return the management rights of the harem to Su Manman.

Although she was unwilling in front of Zhao Chengyuan, she had to agree in order to maintain her image as a well-educated and considerate person.

As soon as the person left, she became so angry that she started swearing and smashing things in a completely unmannerly manner.

At this time, the servants in Chaoren Palace saw that her originally beautiful face was distorted with anger. Everyone felt in danger, lowered their heads, and dared not breathe, for fear of accidentally bringing trouble upon themselves.

Even so, Li Yuwan, who was already angry, became even angrier when she saw everyone around her keeping their heads down and keeping silent.

"You are also laughing at me, right?!"

"Your Majesty, spare me! Your servants don't have any!"

As soon as she said this, the people who were already uneasy began to tremble even more and all knelt down.

Looking at the people kneeling down, Li Yuwan snorted coldly.

"I don't think you dare, you useless bunch of rubbish! Get out of here!"

As soon as she said this, everyone left except the palace maids and eunuchs who had to stay to serve her personally.

Outsiders all think that being able to enter Chaoren Palace is a good job, but only those who are actually in this palace know how difficult it is to serve their imperial concubine on a daily basis.

When she gets angry, she might beat, scold or throw things at the very least, or even kill people at the worst. Yet, His Majesty doesn't really care about her.

The people living in this dire situation really have so much suffering that they cannot express it in words.

"Your Majesty, please calm down. It's not worth getting yourself hurt over such a small matter."

After the idle people left, Li Yuwan's personal maid Meixiang carefully served her a cup of tea and tried to calm her anger.

"What do you know!"

"It's...it's my fault that I'm stupid! I'm sorry to have made you unhappy!"

When Li Yuwan heard her words, instead of calming down, she knocked over the tea she handed over.

The scalding hot tea splashed onto the back of Meixiang's fair hand, turning it red instantly.

The teacup, which he couldn't hold steadily, fell to his feet and broke into pieces.

She did not dare to complain at all, but just knelt down in fear and admitted her mistake.

Li Yuwan was so angry that she sat down by herself, gritting her teeth and glaring.

Although Zhao Chengyuan did not explicitly ask her to hand over the full management rights of the harem, his words still implied that Su Manman did not understand the management of the harem and asked her to assist.

But when she thought about having to obey Su Manman's orders, she became furious.

Zhao Chengyuan knew that Su Manman was different from her. This decision was no different from embarrassing her openly.

Ever since Su Manman fell into the water and had a miscarriage, Li Yuwan felt a sense of crisis as Zhao Chengyuan, who used to ignore her, became more and more interested in her.

Now that the management rights of the harem have been taken back, and after the fire, Zhao Chengyuan almost lives in Fengwu Palace all the time, she is more and more certain that he really cares about Su Manman.

After all, Meixiang had been serving her for a long time and was very good at observing people's words and expressions.

Seeing that she had a gloomy face and didn't speak for a long time, I thought that her anger had subsided a little, so I tried to speak.

"Although your majesty has asked the queen to manage the harem, she has never managed one before. Even if she is given the power, she may not use it. If she makes a fool of herself, your majesty will be able to see who is more suitable to manage the harem, right?"

Meixiang's words immediately touched Li Yuwan's heart.

Of course, she was very happy to see Su Manman make a fool of herself and be laughed at in public.

Meixiang saw that the anger on her face had eased a little, so she took the opportunity to speak again.

"And from what I see, your majesty doesn't really intend to have the queen take charge of the six palaces. It's just that she got lucky this time and did a great job in saving the emperor, so your majesty needs to show it to outsiders. Your majesty has done this before, and in the end, he still gave the power to you."

After Meixiang said this, Li Yuwan also remembered.

In the past, Zhao Chengyuan had let Su Manman manage the harem, but she only managed it for two days before making a mess of it, and then he took the power back.

With Meixiang's comfort, Li Yuwan's anger gradually subsided.

But when he thought that as long as Su Manman was around, his power would be taken away from him from time to time, he felt quite dissatisfied.

"Why doesn't she just burn to death in the fire?"

Her subconscious curse was not loud, but loud enough for everyone present to hear.

But no one dared to persuade her to be more careful with her words as these were outrageous remarks, and they could only pretend that they did not hear them.

Not long after the news of the transfer of power in the harem came out, Su Manman, who had always disliked Li Yuwan, asked someone to invite her to Fengwu Palace to assist in managing the affairs of the six palaces.

This reason was sufficient, and even if Li Yuwan had complaints in her heart, she could not refuse.

“Ah…Qiuye, be gentle…Ahh…It hurts, it hurts!!”

When Li Yuwan arrived at Fengwu Palace, before she even entered the house, she heard Su Manman's screams, which were extremely creepy.

When she went in, she found that it was Qiu Ye who was helping her pick out the blood from the blisters on her hands. Her face was deformed due to the pain.

Qiu Ye's movements were already very gentle, but she was naturally more afraid of pain than others, so being gentle was of no use.

But in order to help her wound heal faster, Qiu Ye did not stop even though her ears hurt from being scolded.

"Your Majesty, please be patient! If this wound is not treated properly, leaving a scar is a minor problem, but if it gets infected it could be fatal!"

Su Manman understood the truth, but it did not stop her from screaming in pain.

It has been six or seven days since the fire. Her throat has recovered and the other injuries on her body have almost healed. However, her hands were burned too badly and have not recovered well. She cannot sleep every night because of the pain.

The imperial physician even clearly stated that even if her hand recovered completely, it would probably leave scars.

However, she was very lucky that the injury was not on her face, otherwise she would have been disfigured.

As she cried, Qiu Ye cleaned her wound, applied medicine, and bandaged it with clean gauze.

"The royal concubine?"

After doing all this, he noticed Li Yuwan standing outside the door without saying a word.

When Su Manman heard this name, her hair immediately stood on end.

How embarrassing! He actually let his opponent see how embarrassed he was just now!

"Sister Concubine, you are here?"

In order to ease the embarrassment that was put on her face, she immediately greeted Li Yuwan with a smile on her face, even though she had a painful look on her face just now.

Seeing her enthusiasm in greeting, people who didn't know the situation would think they had a very good relationship!

Li Yuwan, who had watched the excitement, responded to her enthusiasm with a fake smile, "I wonder what the Queen wants me to do?"

She seemed quite polite, but from the fact that she called herself "this palace" in front of Su Manman, it was not difficult to tell that she did not take her, the queen, seriously at all.

Faced with her arrogance, Su Manman didn't take it to heart.

"Oh, it's nothing important. His Majesty asked me to start managing the six palaces, but you know how I can do that, Concubine! So I thought, since I have time to recover from my injury, I would like to ask you to come and learn a thing or two."

At first glance, there was nothing wrong with what she said.

Seeing that she remained silent, Su Manman added, "Court concubine, are you unwilling to teach me?"

Li Yuwan was naturally unhappy in her heart, but since Zhao Chengyuan had asked her to assist, she could not refuse openly.

"You are overthinking, Queen. I am willing to learn, but I don't know what you want to learn."

At this time, Su Manman was no longer in a hurry. She let her sit down and served her tea before she spoke.

"I don't have any big ambitions, so I'll just learn how to exorcise ghosts first!"

"Puff - exorcise... exorcise ghosts?"

Li Yuwan, who had just put the tea in her mouth, was so shocked that she sprayed out the tea when she heard her inexplicable request.

Whose harem management learns this?

Su Manman nodded very affirmatively.

"Hasn't there been ghosts everywhere in the harem recently? I heard that some concubines are almost scared to death. Since I have to manage the harem, I have to take care of this matter for the safety of the concubines."

Li Yuwan was stunned for a moment after hearing her words, then came to her senses and a gleam of light suddenly flashed in her heart.

She felt that this was a good opportunity to embarrass Su Manman, and immediately agreed to help deal with the matter.

When Su Manman saw her sudden positive attitude, she seemed to have some feelings.

This woman really can't be a good person.
