The most beautiful lady in the harem

In fact, ever since Qin Liuse followed the Empress Dowager to Yuanyang Spring, there have been many different opinions in the harem.

Everyone was so happy and excited, Qin Liuse really deserved it!

She fell out of favor again and was sent to the royal villa by Emperor Yongjia!

Or maybe she felt ashamed to follow the Empress Dowager to Yuanyang Spring. After all, the days of being out of favor were not easy.

Qin Liuse and the Empress Dowager went to Yuanyang Spring. Isn't this their chance?

Each of them was eager to try, hoping to surprise Emperor Yongjia.

After Qin Liuse left, Qin Huaijin went to the Cining Palace to look for Empress Dowager Dong the next day.

"She is good at trying to please the Grand Empress Dowager, thinking that with the Grand Empress Dowager's support, the Emperor will pamper her. From my perspective, the Emperor is really mad at her this time, and even kept the two children in the palace and wouldn't let them take them away! Don't think that anything will happen just because you have found the Grand Empress Dowager." Qin Huaijin said sourly.

As everyone knows, Qin Liuse has not served in the emperor's bedchamber since the autumn hunt. It's just her bad luck to have lost favor!

Just like the god of plague, the sisters in the harem also lost their rain and dew.

It seemed that Emperor Yongjia hated her and the harem as well, and was unwilling to step into it at all.

You have to know that in the past, Emperor Yongjia would go to Zhaoyang Palace almost every day, just like going back to Chengqian Palace.

After not visiting for so many days, she knew without thinking that something was not right between them. Only when they fell out could Emperor Yongjia hate her so much.

Qin Huaijin said sourly, "This Imperial Noble Consort, my sister is also a little arrogant because of her favor. Seeing that the throne of the Queen is hers, she is so ignorant of the rules. I don't know how she offended the Emperor. It's a pity that my position is lower than hers now, so I can't say a word against her."

In front of the Empress Dowager Dong, Qin Huaijin acted as if he was very distressed for Emperor Yongjia.

The Empress Dowager Dong narrowed her eyes slightly, but her thoughts were different from Qin Huaijin's. "Since you are her elder sister, you are even closer to the twins, and you can be called their aunt. Since she is not in the palace, you should visit the two children more often so that the emperor will pay more attention to you."

In her heart, Empress Dowager Dong also felt that Qin Huaijin was a fool. At this time, he still cared about these trivial things.

Since Qin Liuse is no longer in this palace and has no rivals, he naturally has to focus all his efforts on Emperor Yongjia. That's how he won favor. Unfortunately, it's obvious that Qin Huaijin's vision is too narrow.

Qin Huaijin didn't like Qin Liuse's two children at all. He even felt jealous when he saw them, so he rarely went over to them.

But after being reminded by the Empress Dowager Dong, even for the sake of Emperor Yongjia's favor, he had to endure and go to see those two bastards.

After returning to Shu Yuexuan, he selected some exquisite toys and took them to Zhaoyang Palace.

Who knew that when Qin Huaijin arrived at the gate of Zhaoyang Palace, it was closed. He asked Chuntao to knock on the door, but a eunuch came out and said, "Ms. Qin Yu has come at an inopportune time. The two young masters are not feeling well today, so they will not see guests. Please go back and come back another day."

Aunt Mingyue has issued a strict order that no concubines except Concubine Xiao De will be seen.

Qin Yunv was so angry that her eyebrows raised. She didn't even mind that the two children were sick and had brought harm to herself, but they actually didn't let her see them?

But thinking of what the Empress Dowager Dong said, Qin Huaijin took a breath again, suppressed her anger, and said in a gentle tone, "Since my sister is not here, I, as a sister, naturally can't let it go. Just let me take a look."

Xiao Fuzi, however, was sweet on the outside but hard on the inside, and she insisted, "The young master has already gone to bed, it's really inconvenient, Miss Qin Yu, please come back later."

After all, she is a subordinate of the Imperial Noble Consort, so Xiao Fuzi now has more confidence when speaking. After all, she has the title of Imperial Noble Consort, and the two young masters are of royal blood, so everything will be considered for them.

What's the point of her being a seventh-rank imperial concubine?

Even when Qin Liuse was still in the palace, Qin Huaijin would come to visit sometimes, but now Qin Liuse would just refuse to see him.

This is the benefit of having a high enough position and enough grace.

Qin Huaijin was so angry that he cursed in his heart as he walked.

Zhaoyang Palace didn't work, so Qin Huaijin returned to Shuyuexuan and immediately focused his attention elsewhere.

He sat down and rested for a while, then scooped out some of the soup from the small kitchen, put it neatly in an insulated lunch box, and took the lunch box to deliver to Emperor Yongjia.

But when they went to the Imperial Study, Zhu Wanxi said that Emperor Yongjia was not in the palace and had gone on a tour in disguise.

Qin Huaijin could certainly not believe Xiao Fuzi's words, but she had to believe Zhu Wanxi's words.

He gritted his teeth and endured his unhappiness for a moment, then walked back with the lunch box.

And in the past few days, she was not the only one who had the same idea as Qin Huaijin.

Everyone knows that the Imperial Concubine has fallen out of favor and has moved to a separate courtyard. Doesn't this give them an opportunity?

But one by one, Emperor Yongjia ignored them all.

In fact, it can’t be said that he never saw Emperor Yongjia again. Instead, every time he went to the imperial study, Zhu Wanxi said that Emperor Yongjia was not there.

It may seem true the first time you say it, but after you say it for a long time and it happens every day, it’s hard to say whether it’s true or not.

On the sixth day, Qin Huaijin really didn't believe it. Although Zhu Wanxi blocked him from entering and said that Emperor Yongjia had left the palace, Qin Huaijin was not polite at all this time. He took advantage of the gap when Zhu Wanxi was not paying attention and broke into the imperial study.

Zhu Wanxi chased after him, looking helpless and saying, "Ms. Qin Yu, I didn't lie to you. The emperor is really not here."

Qin Huaijin looked around and found that the imperial study was empty and there was no one in sight.

"Where is the emperor? Where did the emperor go?"

Zhu Wanxi really didn't know why Qin Huaijin dared to use such a tone to ask where Emperor Yongjia had gone. This was not her place to ask. The Imperial Noble Consort, who also had the surname Qin, had never done such a thing.

Zhu Wanxi naturally would not honestly tell her that Emperor Yongjia went to Yuanyang Spring to find Qin Liuse. This was the whereabouts of the emperor, and no one could be told unless there was something very important.

She just smiled awkwardly and said, "I don't know either. How can I know where the emperor is going?"

It can be said that Zhu Wanxi is always a good actor. What he said is really impeccable. Qin Huaijin can only believe it without a doubt.

Zhu Wanxi was able to hide the truth the first time he went to Yuanyang Spring, but he couldn’t hide it the second time, and there was no need to hide it.

Since Emperor Yongjia took the little prince and princess with him, the Zhaoyang Palace was without its master, so the news could not be hidden.

Now, Qin Huaijin was really puzzled. She thought that Emperor Yongjia must have disliked her and threw the two children into Yuanyang Spring to ignore her.

Or...the two have reconciled...

Qin Huaijin didn't even want to think about the latter possibility. Just thinking about it made him feel uncomfortable.

"Absolutely not, the emperor will never give that bitch the eye!" Qin Huaijin said hatefully.

However, after a few days, Qin Huaijin knew whether it was true or not.

Because Emperor Yongjia had only been back in the palace for a few days, he issued an imperial decree to dismiss the concubines in the harem.

The imperial edict stated that all the concubines who had not yet served should return to their parents' homes on their own, or be arranged by the palace to be married to princes and nobles in the capital. As for dowries, they would naturally be paid by the palace.

Those who had served in the emperor's bed could choose to stay in the palace and still enjoy good food and service, but they would not receive any favors or receive any rewards when returning to their parents' home. Therefore, this undoubtedly gave them a chance to choose their own path for the rest of their lives.

Concubines who had given birth could stay in the palace, or request permission to live in a separate courtyard outside the palace. If they did not want to raise princes and princesses, they could leave the royal family behind and remarry...

The imperial edict from Emperor Yongjia was like a thunderclap, which shocked the entire harem.

-

When Emperor Yongjia issued this imperial edict, he felt as if the clouds had finally cleared and the moon was finally visible.

I thought this was a difficult decision, but when I made it, I found it was not that difficult.

But Emperor Yongjia thought so, but others might not think so. When he went to the Cining Palace to pay his respects to the Empress Dowager Dong, he was immediately scolded by her.

"You are the emperor, how can you be so emotional? Disband the harem? Why do you want to disband the harem? What kind of magic potion did the Imperial Noble Concubine give you to make such a foolish decision?" The Empress Dowager Dong slammed the table and acted like an elder, lecturing Emperor Yongjia.

Ever since the imperial edict was issued, the concubines who came to the Cining Palace had been trampling down the door, all of them coming to file complaints against Qin Liuse.
