Quick Wear: I was a Favored Concubine in the Qing Dynasty

And this thorn will firmly pierce the queen's heart until one day, the queen will think about why she, the queen, should apologize to a concubine.

I had saved her life before.

It is her duty to repay me. I am the master and she is the servant. This is what she should do.

By that time, the Queen will not be as gentle towards Sui Sui as she is now.

Especially her, a former slave who had seen the queen's 'ugly appearance'.

"Your Majesty, your words are too kind. I was just doing what I had to do." Yu Suisui said sincerely, "Your Majesty, you saved my life back then. If it weren't for your kindness, I wouldn't be where I am today."

"I am only offering my humble contribution."

This is exactly what Yu Suisui wanted, but he couldn't say it out loud. What would happen if he said it out loud? Could the Queen's apology have any effect?

It's just a sentence.

After Yu Sui interrupted the Queen, all the courage she mustered to apologize to Yu Sui was stuck in her throat.

Is Xiuzhi blaming her?

It's right to blame her. She said such harsh words that day, so it's right for Xiuzhi to blame her.

Yu Suisui watched the queen's expression change again and again, and in the end he said nothing.

Once again, doubts arose about the queen in the original owner's memory.

She is the queen!

When she said this, she was actually rejecting the Queen's intention in a tactful way. How could she not think there was anything wrong with it?

Is she really the queen?

"Sit down and have some snacks. These are what you used to love to eat." The Queen talked to Yu Suisui about the almond pastry. Xiuzhi used to love eating such crispy snacks the most.

However, in the Buddhist temple, she mostly ate various offerings and rarely had such crispy snacks given to her.

Yu Sui took a piece and ate it. It was a little sweet, so she ate a small piece and stopped.

There was worry in the queen's eyes. Does Xiuzhi no longer even like almond cakes?

"I heard from the emperor that you like gems. I have two boxes of gems. I will ask Yuzhu to give them to you later. You can ask the Ministry of Internal Affairs to make them into hairpins or rings and bracelets." The queen didn't know what Yu Susui liked, so she asked Qianlong that day.

If Qianlong really wanted to give her a gift, he could give the gem to Yu Susui.

So these two boxes of gems were specially picked out by the Queen and prepared specifically for Yu Susui.

Yu Sui received the gem and returned to Chuxiu Palace.

When Qingguo opened it, his hands were shaking, "My Queen, look quickly." These were all the big, shiny gems that the Queen liked.

Yu Suisui came over to take a look. The gem was very dazzling, but he didn't know what the queen was thinking.

"I will draw the design in a few days and send it to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to have them made into jewelry for you to wear." Yu Suisui did not feel guilty about it, nor did he think of telling the queen about the heavy bleeding.

For the queen, this little thing is no different from plucking a hair from her body.

Especially now, few concubines like such cold gems.

Qingguo had a hunch that the queen was being very generous this time.

Today, Concubine Xian went to pay her respects to the Empress Dowager. When she saw He Jing, she teased him for a while. Finally, the Empress Dowager sent her back to Changchun Palace to pay her respects to the Queen.

"Empress Dowager, this is the scripture I copied recently." Concubine Xian came over because she was thinking about the scripture she copied for the Empress Dowager, so she must come here in person.

The empress dowager took the top piece of paper from the thick stack and looked at it. The handwriting of Concubine Xian was not graceful, but very sharp.

"Don't worry, just take your time." The Queen Mother put the paper back and said, "You've lost weight. There's absolutely no need to torture yourself like this."

"Your Majesty the Queen Mother, I am not torturing myself by copying scriptures. I have always been afraid of cold in winter. It is due to the season, not that I have really lost weight." Concubine Xian still had to make it clear that she really was not copying scriptures for the reason.

Other people suffer in the summer, but she suffers in the winter the opposite way.

It's really a bit different.

Of course, the Empress Dowager knew about Concubine Xian's illness during this bitter winter, but she only cared because Concubine Xian had really lost weight.

"I know you are filial piety is the best." The Queen Mother praised Concubine Xian. She knew why Concubine Xian did this and was willing to help her.

Every woman in the harem has her own path to follow.

Whether it is relying on the emperor, the concubines, or her, the empress dowager, this is very common in the harem.

After hearing the Queen Mother's words, Concubine Xian felt relieved from the fatigue of copying scriptures during this period of time. She was different from the other concubines.

She was not pretty enough, especially compared to Concubine Gao, she felt inferior. Every time she saw Concubine Gao, she felt that the emperor did not like her, which proved that the emperor's vision was correct.

Except for the empress who is the emperor's legitimate wife, they are all the emperor's concubines. They are all concubines, and the emperor will definitely go to whoever is beautiful and likable among them.

She was not pretty enough and had a dull personality, so she could only rely on pleasing the empress dowager to gain a place in the palace.

So that everyone in the palace would not think that she, Concubine Xian, was dispensable and even inferior to Concubine Jia.

"I heard that Concubine Jing asked the monk to recite the Shurangama Mantra that day. I also copied a few copies. The Empress Dowager can place them in the small Buddhist hall when the time comes." Concubine Xian had never thought that the mantra recited that day was the Shurangama Mantra.

Even if no one says it, everyone knows it in their hearts. It was said earlier that the late emperor was dissatisfied and wanted to take the second prince away, and later Concubine Jing asked the monk to recite this spell.

I have never had any other thoughts.

But she couldn't say anything. She saw that the Empress Dowager liked Yu Susui very much, so she copied the Heart Sutra overnight and put it in the box.

When the Queen Mother heard this, she glanced at the thick stack of papers on which the scriptures were copied, and said, "You are so thoughtful."

When Concubine Xian heard this, she knew that what she did touched the heart of the Empress Dowager.

She always felt that the empress dowager was not as affectionate towards the late emperor as she seemed. She also asked some old people in the palace, including those who had been in the palace for more than ten years, and they all said that it was when the late emperor was still alive.

The Emperor did not favor the Empress Dowager until later when he had only two sons, the Emperor and Prince Heqin, and only then did he remember the Empress Dowager. After Empress Xiaojingxian passed away, he really conferred the title of Imperial Concubine on the Empress Dowager.

The Empress assisted in managing the six palaces and held the phoenix seal.

She thought that the Empress Dowager had no feelings for the late Emperor, so this time regarding the Second Prince's matter, the Empress Dowager must have liked Concubine Jing's approach.

It was at this time that Empress Xian discovered that Concubine Jing was a very smart person.

Not only did she save the second prince and gain the Queen's gratitude, but she also made the Queen Mother feel good about her.
