My elder sister forced me to change my marriage? I became the favorite in the harem by eating melons

After Wu Qingying vented her temper alone for a while, she finally suppressed the anger on her face: "Forget it, there is no point in saying more. It has already happened. After all, you had good intentions at the time. It's just that you ended up making things worse."

"It's better than..."

"Not as good as what?"

Seeing Zhang Ying speak at this time, Wu Qingying glanced at her impatiently.

"I see the weather is good today, not too hot. Plus, the Queen has been dealing with harem affairs and hasn't left Kunning Palace. Why don't Concubine Wu go to Kunning Palace today and invite the Queen to go to the Imperial Garden to enjoy the flowers together?"

"Is this an idea?"

After hearing Zhang Ying's idea, Wu Qingying was a little hesitant.

It's not that she doesn't want to, but...

Thinking of the last time she invited Yu Huan to the Imperial Garden to appreciate flowers, she was not very interested: "I won't talk about other things for now, but I believe that I know a little about the varieties of flowers. Guess what happened? When I was in front of Yu Huan, I completely realized what it meant to be a small witch in front of a big witch."

"Wu Zhaoyi, what do you mean?"

Regarding the last incident in the Imperial Garden, Zhang Ying did come once in the evening, but Wu Qingying did not tell Zhang Ying about it.

Although Zhang Ying was her own, she had always believed in her and treated her as her confidant. But she was a third-rank imperial concubine after all, and her family had a high status in the court. Wu Qingying was also a person who valued her reputation very much. How could she let Zhang Ying know that she knelt in front of Yu Huan and cried and confessed her loyalty?

Wu Qingying is a person who has some dignity after all.

When she heard Zhang Ying asking her, she simply explained, "Nothing much. The main thing is that I went to the Imperial Garden with the Queen a few days ago to appreciate the flowers. I wanted to introduce some gorgeous flowers to the Queen in front of her, relying on my knowledge of flower varieties. But who knew that she actually knew more flower varieties than I did."

At this point, Wu Qingying couldn't help but feel a little frustrated: "Even some flowers that I can't name, she can tell what kind of flower it is just by looking at it. Tell me, isn't this embarrassing for me in front of the Queen?"

"This Yu Huan is obviously just the third young lady who is the least favored in the Prime Minister's Mansion. Before I entered the palace, I often met her two elder sisters. But Yu Huan, as the third young lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion, I have not even seen her once in the capital in these years."

"Whether it's her appearance, talent, or intelligence, I've never even heard of her..."

This is why, when she heard that the queen's candidate had been replaced, she almost dropped her jaw in shock.

after all……

In fact, she had seen how powerful that woman Yu Baozhu was.

But the one who got replaced was the Third Miss of the Prime Minister's Mansion who was so low-key that no one could even pronounce her name if they told others about it?

No wonder she looked down on Yu Huan at that time, she really looked down on him!

However, through this period of time spent with Yu Huan, even though the time was not long, Wu Qingying could not fully understand the general situation. But for some reason, in her heart, she firmly believed that Yu Huan was far superior to Yu Baozhu in terms of talent and beauty!

"Mrs. Zhang, you always have the most ideas! Tell me, besides inviting Yu Huan to the Imperial Garden to enjoy the flowers, is there any other way to save my face in front of Yu Huan without making me look so deliberate?"

"This……"

"Hmm? What's the matter? Normally you are the one who chatters the most in my ear, but now when I ask you to give me an idea, you hesitate for a long time and can't even say what's reasonable! Lady Zhang, I have high hopes for you, please don't let me down!"

Hearing the threat in Wu Qingying's words, Zhang Ying could no longer sit still. She quickly stood up and knelt down in front of her: "Wu Zhaoyi, it's not that I can't think of a solution, but it's the Queen..."

"But I haven't had much contact with the Empress, and I don't know what kind of person she is. If it were normal, just like what you said, I would have the most ideas and could quickly come up with a solution for you, but Wu Zhaoyi..."

At this point, Concubine Zhang felt extremely wronged: "But Wu Zhaoyi, I am really scared about what happened last time. I am afraid that I will give you advice with good intentions, but the result will be the same as last time... I am afraid that I will do something bad with good intentions again, and then I will disappoint you, Wu Zhaoyi..."

Probably because she felt that what she said made sense, Wu Qingying's expression calmed down a lot at this moment: "That's right."

No wonder Zhang Ying, who is always talkative, now speaks so little in front of me.

"Then I can't just stay in Ruyi Palace like this forever and watch that bitch in Weiyang Palace being so favored and proud every day!"

"If Wu Zhaoyi feels bored staying in Ruyi Palace, why not go out for a walk? Maybe she will end up at Kunning Palace while walking?"

"Think about it, Wu Zhaoyi. Before, it was you who asked to see the Queen, but the Queen didn't want to see you. But now, Wu Zhaoyi just saw that the weather was good today, so she came out to relax and walk around, and then she happened to walk to Kunning Palace... Since Wu Zhaoyi has walked to the gate of Kunning Palace, how can the Queen not see her again?"

Seeing Wu Qingying still hesitating, Zhang Ying smiled and said, "Don't worry, Wu Zhaoyi. After all, the Queen is the head of a palace. It's understandable for her to do the same thing once, but if she does it every time, it will obviously be bad for her reputation. A queen of a country, no matter where she is, values ​​her reputation the most. Otherwise, how can she be the mother of the country, be magnanimous, and treat the concubines well?"

After hearing what Zhang Ying said, Wu Qingying finally understood: "What you said makes sense."

"If I want to be on good terms with the Queen right now, I can't be too deliberate, but I can't be too inadvertent either. If the Queen doesn't make any moves, I'm afraid that this big tree of the Queen will become someone else's!"

Although she did not go to Kunning Palace in the past few days, she knew that the women in the harem who were waiting and waiting had been running to Kunning Palace quite often in the past few days.

She was the first person to have contact with Yu Huan since Yu Huan entered the palace. How could she allow the people who originally helped her to turn around and help them?

As he spoke, Wu Qingying stood up.

Zhang Ying saw this and hurried forward to help her up: "Wu Zhaoyi, I will help you up."

"Your excuse is good. Today's weather is really good. I have been staying in Ruyi Palace for the past few days and I am really bored. I just want to go out for a walk. So, you can go out for a walk with me."

This time, Zhang Ying did not refuse her again and said respectfully, "Yes, Wu Zhaoyi."

Unfortunately, Wu Qingying still didn't have much patience, because she didn't stroll with Zhang Ying for long and went straight to Kunning Palace.

result--

Unfortunately, at first she thought Yu Huan didn't want to see her, and let Zhaodi make up a reason to reject her, until she heard Zhaodi say that the Queen Mother had ordered someone to invite the Queen to the Cining Palace early in the morning.

When Wu Qingying heard that Yu Huan was invited to the Cining Palace by the Queen, for some reason, out of her sixth sense, she felt that this was obviously a good thing.

Because the Queen Mother hated that bitch Xia Wanning just as much as she did herself.

Weiyang Palace has been the favorite in the harem these days, and she is even more unscrupulous than when the emperor favored her before!

At least in the past, the emperor favored Xia Wanning, but at least he would not forget about the harem. From time to time, especially when Xia Wanning had her period, or if that bitch Xia Wanning was in a good mood, the emperor would go to other concubines.

What now?

Apart from handling government affairs during the morning court sessions, the emperor even moved such important matters as reviewing memorials to the Weiyang Palace, just to accompany that bitch Xia Wanning.

The harem is not allowed to interfere in government affairs, but the emperor seems to be afraid that Xia Wanning will not read his memorials!

"It seems that the Queen Mother is just like you, Wu Zhaoyi, and is unable to sit still. She invited the Queen over so early in the morning, it must be because of the matter at Weiyang Palace."

Wu Qingying was in a very good mood at the moment. Even though the sun was scorching outside, she was sweating all over. This hot and uncomfortable weather should have made people very uncomfortable, but now she was obviously feeling good.

Even when he was talking to Zhang Ying, it didn't seem like the time in Ruyi Palace. Even if the weather was hot, he was in a good mood and naturally had no time to care about how hot it was.

"Lady Zhang, since the Queen is not in Kunning Palace, let's walk around the palace a little longer."

"Isn't Consort Wu going back to Ruyi Palace?"

Not to mention Wu Qingying, even I can't stand this sultry weather.

When Zhang Ying heard that Wu Qingying actually had time to stroll around the palace, she almost broke out in a cold sweat.

"What Ruyi Palace are you going back to?"

Since it's a play, we have to do it comprehensively, right?

Glancing at the dense beads of sweat on Zhang Ying’s fair forehead.

Wu Qingying paused and said, "Forget it, let's go for a walk by the lake. It's cooler by the lake. Otherwise, just looking at how hot you are, I'm worried that you'll get a heat stroke later!"

Zhang Ying: “…”

Cining Palace

"Queen, what do you think of these two women?"

Yu Huan was invited over by Nanny Liu early in the morning. At first, she thought that the Queen Mother wanted to discuss something important with her, otherwise she would not have sent someone to invite her in a hurry at dawn.

Until I came to the Cining Palace...

The woman Jiang Rong was talking about was wearing an emerald green dress, with a slender and graceful figure and a stunning appearance. Although she was only 28 years old, she was already extremely beautiful, and she was indeed a rare beauty.

only……

When he first saw the girl's appearance, even Yu Huan couldn't help but take a few more glances. She was indeed stunningly beautiful.

However, although the woman is beautiful and stunning, there is the peerless Concubine Xia in the harem. Even if the woman in front of him is stunningly beautiful, she cannot compare with Concubine Xia. If she stands next to Concubine Xia, any beautiful woman can instantly become a foil or a supporting role.

The beauty in front of me is beautiful, and she is indeed so beautiful that I can't help but look at her a few more times.

Yu Huan has been staying in the Cining Palace for some time, but the Queen Mother has not said much to her since her arrival. On the contrary, from the moment she sat down in the Cining Palace, countless beauties came in and out of the palace, which gave her a feast for the eyes.

From the moment she saw the first beauty walk in from outside, she roughly knew the Queen Mother's intention.

So far, the two women in front of her were the most satisfying of all the beautiful women she had just seen.

Because whether in terms of appearance, their skills in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, or their intelligence, they are indeed the two most outstanding ones among so many beautiful women.

Hearing the Queen Mother's question, Yu Huan nodded and said, "It is not an exaggeration to describe their looks as stunning as the beauties of a country. Even I cannot compare to their stunning looks."

Hearing this, Jiang Rong was extremely satisfied, but she still smiled and corrected her: "What the Queen said is serious. No matter how beautiful a woman is, there is no comparison when she is in front of the Queen!"

"These two girls were born in Jiangnan. They were discovered by the second-rank Minister of Rites when he traveled to Jiangnan. Minister Li saw that the two sisters were outstanding in appearance, so he brought them into the palace."

After that, Jiang Rong continued, "Empress, you are a kind-hearted and intelligent person. If we send these two girls to the Emperor, will he like them?"

Hearing this, Yu Huan just smiled but didn't say anything.

She couldn't tell the Queen Mother that only the two women named Daji and Baosi who appeared in front of the Emperor could make him completely attracted to them and give up on Concubine Xia. The rest of the women...

No matter how stunningly beautiful they are, perhaps the emperor, as a man by nature, will favor them, but his favor for them will be just like the favor for Ruyi Palace, which will be short-lived, and his heart will still be with Xia Wanning.

Jiang Rong was a very observant person. Seeing Yu Huanxiao, she couldn't help but frown: "Why? From what the Queen said, it seems that she thinks that the two of them can't win the heart of the emperor?"

The two sisters were obviously not convinced. You know, Jiangnan is rich in beauties and has no shortage of beauties. However, the looks of the two sisters were still among the best in Jiangnan. No matter how many beauties there were in Jiangnan, they would all pale in comparison to them.

Obviously, what the two sisters are most proud of is each other's face. In this world, not to mention men, even women can't help but take a few more glances when they see each other.

There is no doubt about how confident they are about their faces.

"Queen Dowager, I dare not speak nonsense. I only know that the emperor is lustful but he is a wise ruler, and lust is the nature of every man. These two women are indeed outstanding in appearance, but looking at the harem, there are countless beauties who are stunningly beautiful."

"Empress, we respect you as the queen, but we don't want to hear you say this."

"Yes, Queen, are you looking down on our sisters' looks?"
