The Duke's Daughter is Reborn

The most luxurious place in the imperial palace is Concubine Hua’s palace.

Over the years, the Fifth Prince has been a strong contender for the throne, and Concubine Hua has been the most favored concubine in the harem. In addition, the Empress has always disliked crowds, so Concubine Hua's palace was once the most prosperous place in the harem.

Today, due to the loss of power by the Fifth Prince, all members of his faction have been implicated to varying degrees. Even the once-powerful Bai Xiang ended up with his entire family being imprisoned.

The Hua Fei Palace, which had been bustling for many years, suddenly became deserted.

These days, the maids and eunuchs in Concubine Hua's palace were all on high alert, fearing that they would upset their master and be punished if they were not careful.

In addition, the palace maids and eunuchs had already received the news. Today, Concubine Hua was rejected again when she wanted to plead for the Fifth Prince with the Emperor. I believe her mood must be extremely bad at the moment.

For a moment, all the palace maids and eunuchs in Concubine Hua's palace slowed down their footsteps.

"Da da da."

Following a burst of rapid footsteps, Hua Fei's personal maid Xingchun walked into the palace quickly and bowed respectfully to Hua Fei who was reclining on the couch, saying, "Your Majesty, today the Queen has kept Song Yangqi, the third daughter of the Duke of Song's mansion, in the palace."

The small table on top of the couch was made of sandalwood, with fine texture and a faint fragrance. The tabletop was inlaid with exquisite jade and mother-of-pearl, forming a rich peony picture, with petals so beautiful that they seemed to be dripping with morning dew.

Hua Fei opened her eyes slightly and looked at Xing Chun in front of her: "Did you meet her on the palace road today?"

Xingchun nodded slightly: "Your Majesty has a good memory, it is this person."

"Did the Queen ask you to stay in the palace? Can you tell me why?"

"According to the people below, it was Princess Yuanyi who asked someone to come into the palace to talk. Previously, Princess Yuanyi had several contacts with Song Yangqi. Today, it was Princess Yuanyi who asked someone to stay in the palace for a few more days."

As the first person around Concubine Hua, Xingchun's appearance was not outstanding, but she was not a talkative person, which was exactly what Concubine Hua liked.

"Humph."

After hearing Xingchun's reply, Concubine Hua's beautiful face showed some disdain and resentment: "The Duke of Song's Mansion has a good plan. First, they joined forces with Marquis Yongyi to recommend the second young lady.

Seeing that Yin'er had temporarily lost power, he immediately pushed the third lady in front of the queen.

The Duke of Song's Mansion has really taken the two-timing approach to the extreme. Seeing that our Yin'er has temporarily lost power, they are rushing to take revenge on that wooden man! "

After saying this, Concubine Hua angrily knocked the tea set on the small table to the ground, and the scalding tea splashed on Xingchun's arm.

Xingchun didn't dare to check her arm, and quickly knelt down to dissuade her, "Your Majesty, if you get hurt because of such a fence-sitter, it's totally not worth it. Such a dilapidated mansion is not worth getting angry about."

"If it weren't for Yin'er pushing Yu Xin to the crown prince, and considering the face of Marquis Yongyi, it wouldn't have been the turn of the young lady of the Duke of Song's mansion."

Over the years, the Duke of Song's Mansion had long since withdrawn from the core power circle of the imperial court. Even though Song Hongwen had been transferred to the capital, and with the overt and covert support of the Marquis of Yongyi's Mansion, the effect was still not obvious.

Looking at Xingchun kneeling on the ground, Concubine Hua said unhappily, "Alright, get up. Let everyone in the Queen's palace be smart and see what the Duke of Song's Mansion is up to."

Thinking carefully, the woman I met this morning was very different from what I had heard before, and was not consistent with what I had heard from Duke Song's Mansion.

Was this a deliberate act by the Duke Song's Mansion, or had the Third Miss Song been hiding her abilities all along?

No matter what, this person from the Duke of Song’s Mansion must not be reused.

If he did it on purpose, it showed that he had ulterior motives from the beginning and was not wholeheartedly on Yin'er's side.

If the Third Miss Song deliberately concealed her incompetence and hid it from the whole mansion, it would further prove that the Song Guogong Mansion was extremely incompetent and could be fooled by a little girl to this extent.

Yang Qi didn't know that the fact that the Queen had let her stay in the palace had unknowingly severed some of the ties between Concubine Hua and the Song Mansion. This could truly be described as "a single move affects the entire body."
