After Liu Rumei and Ning Ou said goodbye, they headed for the palace without stopping. As the journey was quite long, it took several days to get there.

During this period, Xu Yahan was brought into the palace and was given the title of "Xu Jieyu".

At this moment, a hazy half moon hangs high in the sky, like a layer of silver crepe, gently covering the crisscrossing stone roads, the lush bushes beside the road, and the gorgeous eaves with flying eaves and brackets.

"Jieyu, it's getting late. Do you need to rest?" the maid asked softly, her tone very cautious.

"Huh? Is it so late already?" Xu Yahan raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a cool smile, as if foreshadowing that the night's carnival was about to begin.

Since they dared to send her to the palace, she would definitely turn the palace upside down to live up to her arrogant and domineering character since childhood.

She really couldn't understand what the emperor was thinking, as he praised her for her virtue and benevolence and bestowed upon her the title of "Jieyushi".

She had been in the palace for two days and had never seen the emperor, so she didn't know who the emperor was.

Humph! The so-called virtuous and kind woman only wanted her to be like other women, competing for favors in the inner palace, and eventually die alone.

This kind of life is simply a foolish dream.

It was late at night and everything was quiet, but the yard was bustling with activity.

Xu Yahan stood in the center, dancing and beating the gong, singing loudly: "Girl, I sing loudly, holding the white clouds, holding the sun; girl, I sing loudly, holding the stars, holding the moon." The clear and melodious singing voice resounded through the night sky.

However, in this quiet atmosphere, the sound of gongs and drums seemed particularly harsh, as if it was about to break through the sky.

All the people in the palace who were originally sleeping were awakened, rubbing their sleepy eyes and complaining.

The Queen Mother was not spared either. She frowned, put her hand on her forehead, and asked unhappily, "What happened? How dare you make such a noise in the middle of the night! Which palace is so rude?"

The maid beside her hurriedly replied: "Reporting to the Queen Mother, it is the new Concubine Xu who entered the palace."

The Queen Mother's face turned even uglier when she heard this. She snorted coldly and said, "What a lack of rules! What on earth is the Emperor thinking? How can such an ignorant woman be accepted into the palace? Giving her a position of a concubine is already a great gift from heaven, but he even conferred her the title of a concubine!"

As everyone knows, Xu Yahan was originally a woman brought back by the emperor from Yihongyuan.

In this intricate and scheming palace, it would be difficult to survive without a slick mind and means.

Any slight movement in any palace would spread throughout the entire palace in no time.

At this moment, the palace maid knew that it was useless to say more, so she could only lower her head and remain silent.

After all, this kind of thing was not something a mere palace maid like her could interfere in.

There was peace and tranquility in the emperor's bedroom.

However, on this quiet night, a sudden commotion broke the peace - Xu Yahan's big movement actually woke up Xiao Qingze who was sleeping soundly.

He opened his eyes sleepily and looked at the scene in front of him. He couldn't help but feel helpless: "Xu Jieyu is protesting to me!"

Seeing this, Eunuch Li on the side quickly replied softly: "Your Majesty, Concubine Xu is indeed different from other concubines in the palace."

Xiao Qingze frowned slightly, "Indeed, who in the palace dares to be as bold as her? She stays up late at night and disturbs other people's sweet dreams, but she is unhappy and wants everyone to suffer with her. I guess she is using this method to express her dissatisfaction with me!"

Xiao Qingze already understood that Xu Yahan was not willing to enter the palace.

What he had not expected was that Xu Yahan would cause such a commotion.

Such a strong character is truly impressive.

She seemed unwilling to endure any grievance and was determined to fight against fate to the end.

Faced with this situation, Eunuch Li naturally did not dare to interrupt easily. As the saying goes, "Serving the emperor is like serving a tiger", saying one more word may lead to more mistakes.

So he chose to remain silent, standing quietly aside, waiting for the emperor's order.

"Forget it, let her be! Just let her make a fuss." Xiao Qingze shook his head helplessly and sighed inwardly.

He has always had special feelings for Xu Yahan, which is completely different from how he treats other concubines.

"Little Li, light the candles for me. I need to take another look at these memorials." After being disturbed by Xu Yahan, Xiao Qingze, who was originally a little sleepy, became much more awake at this moment.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Little Lizi responded quickly, carefully lit the oil lamp on the table, and stood silently aside to serve.

Looking at the emperor's concentrated expression as he read the memorial, Little Leo couldn't help but think to himself: This Concubine Xu is really not a simple person!

The emperor actually attaches so much importance to this. It seems that there will be some turmoil in the harem.

As a servant in front of the emperor, I need to be doubly careful in the future...
