It's great, another day of lying down and idling in the palace

Not only were the two palace maids shocked, but Concubine Liang, who had been pretending to be drunk, was suddenly lifted into the air and almost screamed in shock.

Fortunately, she held back and pretended to be intoxicated with her eyes half opened, and what she saw was Ji Yunqing's delicate half chin.

Just as she was trying to calm herself down and leaning against Ji Yunqing, she suddenly heard Ji Yunqing mumbling softly.

Because the two were too close, Concubine Liang easily heard what Ji Yunqing said.

“There’s no need to drink for this kind of thing.”

"Alas, when you knew that the emperor only favored me now, it was actually because he was unable to do so and was forced to do so, wouldn't you be very angry?"

Concubine Liang's breathing quickened for a moment: "!!!"

She couldn't believe her ears.

This time, the impact of what Ji Yunqing said was much greater than when she hugged herself.

Your Majesty, I am unable to do this.

That's it!

I see! !

Concubine Liang understood everything at once and she wanted to laugh out loud.

It turned out that it wasn't her fault, it was all because of the useless emperor, and she couldn't change that no matter how hard she tried.

How could Concubine Liang be willing to accept that she had fallen out of favor because of the passage of time, or that the emperor had lost his favor because he had a new lover?

It is better to accept this reason which sounds reasonable.

Concubine Liang wanted to hear more, but Ji Yunqing had already shut his mouth and was walking towards his palace with the person in his arms in big strides.

At the end, Concubine Liang heard Ji Yunqing's increasingly heavy breathing.

She had mixed feelings about this.

As a lesson learned from the previous incident, all the people who had attacked Ji Yunqing disappeared, so Concubine Liang did not dare to attack Ji Yunqing directly.

Therefore, she could only instigate secretly, including today's incident, just to use many precedents to remind Ji Yunqing that beauty fades with time, and she will fall out of favor sooner or later.

Once he had this idea in mind, Ji Yunqing would always think more about it intentionally or unintentionally when facing the emperor again.

The more you think, the more you will do, and the emperor will always be impatient if you do too much.

After a long time, will the emperor still treat Ji Yunqing the same as before?

Will you still not participate in the talent show for Ji Yunqing?

Once a new person enters the palace, the emperor will sooner or later fall in love with the fresh and tender new person.

In this way, the old men in the palace are out of favor but have older children, while the new beauties in the palace are favored but have young children, so she has a chance to compete for that position.

Ji Yunqing didn't know what this person was thinking. She carried him to her bed, considerately took off his outer robe, and stuffed him into the soft quilt.

Looking at the woman sleeping in his bed, Ji Yunfeng put his hands on his waist and sighed, "Xuancao, do you think this looks like a beautiful woman hidden in a golden house?"

Hemerocallis looked around: "My Lady, where is the Golden House? How come I can't see it?"

Ji Yunqing was furious: "...Hidden beauty, the key is to hide the beauty, the golden house is all external things, not important, not important at all"

Xuancao stopped talking, but she looked at Ji Yunqing with a bright look in her eyes, "Master, you should have a bottom line even if you talk nonsense, right?"

Ji Yunqing touched his nose.

"Okay, let's go out and let her sleep here."

The footsteps gradually faded away, and Concubine Liang slowly opened her eyes.

Her eyes were full of complexity, and finally she closed her eyes.

It was not until the evening that Concubine Liang sobered up and left.

next day

Concubine Liang suddenly received a reward from the emperor, a pot of wine.

When Concubine Liang received the wine, her face turned pale.

The palace maids around were all happy for their master.

"That's great, Madam. The Emperor still remembers you."

"The emperor must have thought it tasted good, so he gave it to the queen."

"The Emperor must have known that Your Majesty liked to drink, so he found it specifically for Your Majesty."

Concubine Liang didn't hear a word of the palace maids' cheerful voices.

There was only one thought in her mind.

The emperor discovered it.

The emperor was deliberately warning her.

How similar is this pot of wine to the one she drank yesterday?

No, you can’t set your sights on Ji Yunqing anymore.

She had a premonition that if she continued like this, the emperor would not forgive her.

But why?

Why was Ji Yunqing chosen?

She can also keep secrets for the emperor. What Ji Yunqing can do, she can do too.

Concubine Liang's heart was filled with bitterness.

From then on until the Chinese New Year, Ji Yunqing did not see Concubine Liang again.

Because the weather was cold, the Queen Mother was exempted from paying respects.

It is said that the Queen Mother was very unhappy with this and even called the Queen over to give her a lecture.

It means that when the late emperor was alive, the concubines in the harem would pay their respects to their emperor morning and night without any delay. It's nothing like now, where there are really no rules at all.

She called him two or three times in a row. I don’t know what the Queen was thinking, but Ji Yunqing couldn’t stand it anymore.

She waited angrily for the empress dowager to call the queen over for a lecture again, and then followed her with a tough attitude.

After all, the queen is no longer required to pay respects, which means her welfare has improved.

If the queen couldn't resist any more, wouldn't she have to crawl out of bed again in the middle of winter?

She is not a high-ranking official and does not need to go to work, so why should she work so hard to get up early in the morning?

Outside Kunning Palace, the Queen saw Ji Yunqing, who was angrily asking to go in with her and share the hardships, and a hint of warmth flashed in her eyes.

She comforted him, "It's okay, you don't have to worry about me. The Queen Mother will at most embarrass me a little, but she won't do anything to me! Ahem."

She resisted the itch rising up her throat and tried her best to suppress it.

Ji Yunqing was worried.

I'm worried a thousand times and ten thousand times.

She knows very well that a happy life must be earned by one's own efforts.

What if the Queen can’t bear it anymore and resumes paying respects?

"My Queen, I must go with you today."

The queen was worried that she would be troubled by the queen mother if she went there, so she advised again: "You should go back first and don't make me worry, okay?"

"not good!"

Ji Yunqing refused outright, and her attitude was very firm: "If you want to go, let's go together, I won't go back"

Having said that, he walked directly towards Kunning Palace.

Show your determination through actions.

What a joke! The frequency with which the Empress Dowager summons the Queen has gone from once every two or three days to once a day now.

What if one day the Queen becomes unhappy and decides that it would be better for everyone to get up early and suffer together rather than working hard and freezing herself? What should we do?

Thinking of this, Ji Yunqing felt more and more that he should come and help.

The queen was helpless and whispered a few words to the maid beside her, and the maid quickly left the team quietly.

In Kunning Palace

When the Queen Mother heard the palace maid report that the Queen had arrived, she just said, "Let her wait outside, I want to sleep for a while."

Then she saw a figure rushing towards her like a mad dog.

Along with it was a clear and familiar voice, "Empress Dowager, I'm here to see you!"

As soon as the last syllable fell, the person was already in front of the Queen Mother, less than one meter away.

Queen Mother: "..."

See, this is why she can do nothing about the imperial concubine.

This guy is totally different from the others!

"How come the concubine has time to come?"

Ji Yunqing's voice was clear and loud, and her words echoed throughout the hall: "Queen Mother, what you said is true. Of course, I will come to see you when I am free."

As she spoke, she looked at the Queen Mother with a look that said, "Is there any need to ask? I am such a filial person."
