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

The next afternoon, Bo Muxi went to Fengyi Palace to visit the queen again, and the two sat in the hall drinking tea.

The two have been together for many years. Although there is no romantic relationship between them, they have long regarded each other as family.

The queen knew Bo Muxi. He looked like a kind emperor, but deep down, he was overbearing, tyrannical and cruel, and would never tolerate disobedience.

The queen actually didn't like Bo Muxi's personality, so she had to be a generous, virtuous and qualified queen to make Bo Muxi very satisfied.

The queen is a woman who does not want her husband to love her, and therefore she can live a stable life.

After quietly sipping his tea for a while, Bo Muxi smiled and said, "I never thought that my mother would be willing to retreat to this point. This time, it's all thanks to the queen."

The emperor's words were quite intriguing.

The queen smiled calmly, "I don't have much credit. It's all mother's own thoughts. After all, the emperor is mother's closest flesh and blood. How can she not love you? Now that mother is getting older, she will naturally consider more on the emperor's side."

"Oh? Since the Queen said so, I will have to reward you even more." Bo Muxi changed the subject: "I have been thinking about promoting Jin Shuyi recently, and it's a bit of a headache."

The Queen smiled and said, "I would like to guess why the Emperor is worried. Is it because of the promotion? If you are only promoted to a concubine, it will feel a little low, but the noble concubine position is full. If you are directly promoted to a first-rank concubine, it will feel a little inappropriate. Is that right?"

Bo Muxi chuckled and said, "The Queen still understands me. What does the Queen think?"

"The promotion is entirely up to the emperor, so I'll just give you my opinion. With Jin Shuyi's ability and character, she deserves the position of a first-rank concubine," said the queen.

What the Queen meant was that no matter what level of position, Shen Zhiyao was worthy of sitting there.

The two were chatting excitedly when they saw Lin En trotting in.

"Your Majesty, good news has come from the border. General Shen Li led his troops to break through the defenses of Jinfeng Kingdom and has captured four cities in a row! The spies hidden in Jinfeng Kingdom reported that Jinfeng Kingdom's general Gong Cheng Yuanhua was seriously injured by General Shen Li last time and has now died! Currently, Jinfeng Kingdom is in chaos and has sent envoys to deliver a letter of surrender to us overnight!" Lin En could hardly hide his excitement and his voice was trembling.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations, Your Majesty! The surrender of the Kingdom of Jinfeng is just around the corner! This time, General Shen Li has truly achieved extraordinary feat!" The Queen was delighted.

Bo Muxi suddenly laughed and said, "Queen, haven't I told you many times? Jin Shuyi is my lucky star! I just said that I was worried about her promotion, and then I received great news in a flash!"

"This woman really has...what luck?" Bo Muxi couldn't help but slap the table.

"I have witnessed it with my own eyes this time. Jin Shuyi is indeed a blessed person." The Queen said with a smile.

"This woman is hard to fool and hard to coax. I should give her the best. Otherwise, I will seem too stingy." Bo Muxi stood up and said with a smile: "Lin En, pass on my order."

"Jin Shuyi is dignified and virtuous, talented and beautiful. Since she entered the palace, she has been dignified and virtuous, with both virtue and appearance. She has served me gently and obediently, and has won my heart, praised by both inside and outside. Now, seeing Shuyi's virtues, she is enough to help the Queen in managing the harem and set an example for the rest of the harem, so I specially promote her to... Imperial Concubine." Bo Muxi said in a clear voice.

Lin En was shocked when he heard this. He had known for a long time that the emperor had been thinking about promoting Jin Shuyi, but he never expected that he could let her get it right away...

Even the queen did not expect that the emperor could be so generous.

The one who could probably not accept it the most was Concubine Zhao. She had always regarded herself as the "second person" in the harem and looked down on anyone except the queen. This time, she was completely suppressed by Shen Zhiyao.

"What do you think, Queen? Is my enthronement comprehensive?" Bo Muxi asked the Queen with a smile.

"Your Majesty, when I think about it carefully, it is naturally appropriate. I wonder how touched Princess Jin must be." The Queen said with a smile.

Bo Muxi smiled and said, "Queen, I will reward you handsomely later."

The Queen bowed her head and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty. However, I have come to realize that there are still two vacancies for the second-rank concubines, and there are also a few missing from the Nine Concubines. Why not consider filling them all up? There have been many turmoils in the harem before, and it is inevitable that there are some reasons for the uneven number of concubines."

The queen is so smart, she is going to take advantage of the situation to do a "major reshuffle".

As expected, the emperor knew how to return a favor, and he smiled and said, "I was negligent. The queen can recommend some more candidates. We will consider them together in a few days."

"Yes, I will try my best to consider it appropriately." The queen bowed in response.

After a while, the news that Jin Shuyi was promoted to Princess Jin spread like wildfire, and everyone was shocked.

No one could have imagined that Shen Zhiyao could ascend to this high position second only to the Queen in one step.

When the imperial edict reached Cuiweixuan, even Shen Zhiyao herself was surprised.

Who would have thought that the emperor, who had always been so stingy about conferring titles on his concubines, would be so generous this time?

Shen Zhiyao knelt down hurriedly to receive the imperial edict and express her gratitude, and also rewarded the eunuch who delivered the order with thirty taels of silver.

Holding the heavy imperial edict in both hands, Shen Zhiyao knew clearly how important it was for herself and her unborn child that she could climb to this position second only to the empress while she was still young and the emperor still cared about her.

Everyone in Cuiweixuan was excited, happy and lively.

All of a sudden, palace maids and eunuchs, both big and small, ran to the front hall to congratulate their masters on their promotion.

Shen Zhiyao was always generous, and immediately gave away a lot of silver and jewelry as rewards, and Cuiweixuan was like celebrating the New Year.

"The Emperor has arrived!"

Everyone was rejoicing when they heard the eunuch guarding the gate singing.

The emperor came in a hurry and without prior notice. Shen Zhiyao hurriedly led everyone to kneel down to welcome him.

Fortunately, Shen Zhiyao was now dressed up beautifully and charmingly, so she could be considered to be dressed up for the reception.

As soon as Bo Muxi entered the room, he looked at her carefully. Her jade-like skin and tall eyebrows made him feel itchy.

"My beloved, have you received the imperial edict?" Bo Muxi asked with a gentle smile.

"Your Majesty, I never expected that you valued me so much. I am so moved that I don't know what to say... But I am becoming more and more greedy, and I want Your Majesty to think about me all the time. What should I do?" Shen Zhiyao's peach blossom eyes were slightly red, and she looked at Bo Muxi with watery eyes.

"Okay, since my beloved concubine wants it, I will promise you that I will always keep you in my heart, okay?" Bo Muxi held Shen Zhiyao's hand, and the tenderness in his eyes was about to overflow.
