Time Travel: The actress's acting skills exploded, and she was favored by the harem

That evening, after the Queen had her dinner, she lay on the chaise longue to study the rare book. Tomorrow would be the day when Hu Baolin would come to pay his respects, and the Queen naturally knew that there would be a bloody storm.

She had followed Bo Muxi for many years and naturally understood the emperor's mind very well. Bo Muxi could not forget that regretful relationship, not because he really loved the zither player. The emperor was cold-hearted at heart and it was difficult for him to truly fall in love with anyone.

What the emperor could not let go of was more the hatred for the days when he had no say in the matter. The feeling of weightlessness of being unable to protect the people he cared about was a permanent scar in the heart of Bo Muxi, who claimed to be extraordinary.

"Empress, it seems that Hu Baolin has caused the jealousy of the public. His life will be difficult. Do we need to take any action?" Shijin asked.

In fact, she wanted to test what the Queen's attitude was towards Hu Baolin.

The Queen shook her head: "No need to do anything, just watch. I will only stand on the side of justice."

"Ah, master, if you can't make trouble, I'm afraid Concubine Zhao will also take action. If the situation becomes too ugly, I'm afraid the emperor will be furious." Shijin was very worried.

"The Queen Mother will not allow her to act recklessly, so I can worry less." The Queen answered with certainty.

Shijin knew what was going on. Her master's attitude actually meant that she was neither interested in nor disliked Hu Baolin. She just had no feelings for him.

Shijin thought, that's right, how could the master be as interested in everyone as he is in Concubine Jin? There are only a few people like Concubine Jin in the palace, how can these vulgar people match them?

Shijin was so busy thinking about it that she didn't realize that subconsciously, she liked Shen Zhiyao very much.

"Alas, I was worrying for nothing. I thought Her Majesty would be interested in Hu Baolin! When we went to see Concubine Zhuang, her sad expression was still vivid in my mind. It seems that she only has Concubine Jin as her real rival!" Shijin shook her head.

The Queen was genuinely amused by her, and couldn't help but recall the time she went to see Concubine Zhuang, and how much effort she had put into coaxing her.

These two things made her worry, and the queen smiled and shook her head.

As expected, the Queen knew Queen Mother Zhao well enough, and that night, Concubine Zhao was called to Fushou Palace.

"I know what you want to do, but you'd better let someone else do it instead of doing it yourself. Otherwise, it will play into someone's hands," Queen Mother Zhao advised.

She had never looked at Qin Man carefully, but she knew her son's taste and knew that Hu Baolin was not simple this time.

"Aunt, this person has angered everyone. I should take this opportunity to make sure she never gets ahead again. Isn't that great?" Concubine Zhao really wanted to do it herself so that the effect would come faster.

"You just need to fan the flames. Even if it was done by your other concubines, it has nothing to do with you. Now that I have reminded you, you just need to be obedient." Queen Mother Zhao frowned impatiently.

Fortunately, she is her own niece and the eldest prince whom she cares about very much. If it were someone else so stupid, she would not bother to save her!

"Yes, aunt, I'll remember that." Seeing the Queen Mother's unhappy expression, Concubine Zhao had no choice but to agree obediently.

"I'm telling you the method in advance this time. If you still make mistakes and are disliked and punished by the emperor, I won't plead for you. If nothing else, you should think more about the eldest prince. Sooner or later, the emperor will have other princes."

Queen Mother Zhao gave her another "wake-up call" to prevent her from becoming too complacent.

Concubine Zhao was not a tough person to begin with, so after being beaten like this, she naturally gave up. She secretly thought about how to drive the concubines under her to cause trouble.

After Concubine Zhao left, the Queen Mother sighed and said to Nanny Wang, "Please keep an eye on her for me. The Emperor has a special affection for this new concubine. If he wants to take action, this is definitely not the time to do it. If she doesn't obey, please stop her."

"Yes, master, don't worry. I will definitely take good care of it for you. However, Concubine Zhao always listens to you, so you just need to be at ease." Nanny Wang comforted.

"Well, Yu Han is still a good thing in this regard." Queen Mother Zhao waved her hand, motioning for Nanny Wang to go down.

She was lying alone on the couch in the warm room, and suddenly she remembered that there was once a zither player who was eliminated by her trusted confidant.

In the past few years, she had been able to avoid women with good piano skills in the palace selection, but in the end...

Queen Mother Zhao sighed and thought: Never mind, the emperor just lost his favorite toy, now he has a similar one, maybe he can get over it...

That night, Qiuyue took back the newly made clothes, and Shen Zhiyao tried them all out.

"Master, why do I feel that you are particularly concerned about beauty now? Normally, I have never seen you try everything at once." Qiu Ji said with a smile.

"There will be a big show tomorrow, so of course I, your master, have to dress up to attend." Shen Zhiyao said as she put on makeup in the mirror.

Hearing this, everyone gathered around excitedly.

Zhe Ni gossiped, "Recently, that Lady Hu Baolin has caused a lot of discussion. Tomorrow is the day for her to pay respects to the emperor. I'm afraid things will not be peaceful."

"I've heard a lot, too. I'm really worried. I wonder if it will affect our master?" Qiu Ling said worriedly.

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Shen Zhiyao in unison.

"You guys are really worried..." Shen Zhiyao smiled and shook her head, but these girls also cared about her, so they comforted her: "Don't worry, your master is not a soft egg, don't provoke me, but if you really dare to provoke me, I won't have been in vain for the past two years."

In fact, everyone had long known that she would be so tough, and they wanted to hear her say it in person for comfort. After all, their happiness in the second half of their lives was closely tied to Shen Zhiyao's future.

After Shen Zhiyao finished studying her outfit, she went to bed early. After all, she would have to expend a lot of energy tomorrow, so she had to get enough rest!

The next day, Shen Zhiyao got up early and dressed up, because she absolutely could not be late today.

Shen Zhiyao was wearing a honey-colored palace dress today, and a bright red cloak with a fox fur collar, which made her look particularly beautiful.

She had her hair done in a stunning bun and wore a headdress made of gold jewelry inlaid with crystals sent by the Queen.

She deliberately drew slightly raised eyebrows, and after using eyeliner to modify her eyes, they appeared narrower and longer than usual, giving her a strong aura.

When Shen Zhiyao arrived at Fengyi Palace, everyone had arrived early. Moreover, everyone was in sync and dressed up beautifully, probably to give the newlyweds a "warning".

They greeted each other and exchanged pleasantries.

Everyone in the palace has been waiting eagerly for the past few days, and there is already more than one person who is ready to go, especially those on Concubine Zhao's side.

After much anticipation, and amid the expectant gazes of the crowd, Hu Baolin, who had not been seen for three days, finally arrived at Fengyi Palace...
