That day in the Cining Palace, if she had refused in front of the Empress Dowager Dong, in front of her, Emperor Yongjia, and a group of sisters, it would not matter to others, but it might have left a not-so-pleasant impression on the Empress Dowager Dong.

As for what Emperor Yongjia thought, Qin Liuse didn’t quite understand.

But now it seems that he has no objection. It is obvious that Concubine Xin Shu has already discussed this with him in private.

But today, if she only said it in front of her and Concubine Li, then it would be bland again. She brought up the matter of handing over the work, and Concubine Li and she had no right to refuse.

But by bringing this matter up to them when Emperor Yongjia was around, she could let Emperor Yongjia see how difficult it was for her.

The so-called maximization of interests is nothing more than this. First give them a sweet treat, give them some expensive jewelry, and then push the matter out. It is really smart.

Qin Liuse indeed saw an expression similar to heartache on Emperor Yongjia's face.

Obviously, his attitude towards the woman who had suffered with him was different from that towards other concubines.

Emperor Yongjia was not unaware that Concubine Xin Shu was not in good health, but he did not seem to be too surprised when he heard the news.

She just went with the flow and followed Concubine Xin's intention. "Since Concubine Xin is not feeling well and can't take care of anything, let Concubine Xian take care of the affairs of the harem from now on. Qin Zhaoyi, you should also help Concubine Li."

Qin Liuse curled her lips. Concubine Xin Shu was really...

If you don't have the skills, don't take on the job. A few days ago, he stole the limelight in front of the Empress Dowager and the Emperor and got all the benefits, but now he doesn't want to get anything.

Seeing Concubine Li Xian's expression of finding a treasure, Qin Liuse shook her head in her heart. Even Concubine Xin Shu didn't want it, so who knows how much connection there will be between them in the future. But for now, she could only accept this job.

Qin Liuse stood up and followed Concubine Li to pay respects to Emperor Yongjia.

Concubine Li was different from Qin Liuse. She was very happy to take this job. With a smile on her face, she received the imperial edict from Emperor Yongjia.

After Concubine Li Xian had expressed her loyalty as a new official, Qin Liuse had to say a few words to show that he had a good heart.

"I didn't know that Concubine Xin Shu was not in good health. It shouldn't be my turn to take charge of the harem. I am young and have never seen the world. I have not thought about many things carefully. Please help Concubine Xian and me."

Concubine Li was reminded by Qin Liuse's words and realized that she seemed to be so happy that she forgot herself. Her words just now only expressed her happiness, but did not express her hard work and dedication. At this time, she should be humble when she has the power.

She said quickly, "I will take care of the chores in the harem for Sister Shufei first. When Sister Shufei recovers and has a healthy body, Sister Shufei has more experience than me, so naturally, Sister Shufei will take care of it."

After a few people pretended to shirk responsibility, the responsibility of managing the harem suddenly fell on Qin Liuse and Concubine Li.

Of course, the main responsibility lies with Concubine Li. I guess she will be laughing so hard that she won’t be able to sleep tonight.

Qin Liuse wore a mask and pretended to be serious for the whole day in Concubine Xin Shufei's palace. When it was time to return to Shu Yuexuan, he immediately ran away.

Emperor Yongjia stayed with Concubine Xin Shu for a while, drank a few cups of tea, and then returned to his palace without staying here.

After everyone left, Qingzhu helped Concubine Xin Shu back to the inner room and sat down, and helped her do some massage. While pounding her legs with a beauty hammer, she couldn't help but look up and ask, "Your Majesty, why do you want to hand over the power and responsibilities of the harem?"

Although being in charge is naturally hard work and has responsibilities, it is more tempting to hold the power in one's hands.

It’s hard to say whether Qingzhu was very reluctant to leave or not. When they were in the northwest, in that mansion, everyone respected them and they walked with the wind.

There is no queen or concubine in the mansion, and no real master. Those people call their Xin Zhaoyuan "Madam". What an honor it is!

She was close to Xin Zhaoyuan and served the Ninth Prince. People kept calling her "Sister Qingzhu" and "Sister Qingzhu" all the time, and she almost felt proud.

I originally thought that when we returned to the imperial palace in the capital, we would all be under the control of our own masters and would have to keep our heads down and behave ourselves.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she returned, the emperor promoted Xin Zhaoyuan to the rank of Concubine Shu.

Now that there is no queen, except for the previous imperial concubine, it is no exaggeration to say that their concubine Shu is second only to the emperor and above everyone else in the imperial palace.

Once you get used to having power, it is difficult to let go of it.

Otherwise, power is the best aphrodisiac.

But Concubine Xin Shu knew how to play the long game and catch the big fish. She walked to the beauty couch by the window, sat down, and let the maid bring her medicine and wait on her to soak her feet.

"This is a hot potato. Don't think it's a good thing." Concubine Xin Shu said lightly with her eyelids raised.

Qingzhu curled her lips, not really understanding, "Is there anyone in this harem who doesn't want to manage the harem?"

Xin Shufei glanced at her and said, "To be in charge of the harem, it must be legitimate. So what if you are in charge now? It is only temporary. There is no one who can really manage the harem in the harem now."
