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

Perhaps he would also enjoy himself and be happy with other women. After all, he was the emperor, and these women were born to serve him and do everything they could to make him happy.

But in their eyes, Ye Ling did not like her, he only spoiled her.

But it's different with Xia Wanning. She can provide herself with a lot of emotional value, whether it's quarreling or making peace.

It must be said that during the few days when he and Xia Wanning reconciled, Ye Ling finally experienced what it meant to be truly happy from the inside out.

With other women, maybe he just feels good physically.

While in Weiyang Palace, he felt refreshed both physically and mentally, and this feeling was brought to him by Xia Wanning.

Although he and Xia Wanning had reconciled, he knew this woman's temper. Although she seemed fine on the surface, she still had a bit of a temper in her heart.

He would definitely put Xia Wanning first in everything now. He would not even go to other women's bedrooms for the time being. He would wait until he had completely coaxed Xia Wanning into submission, and then he would go to other women to save face.

Anyway, as long as Xia Wanning is willing to pay attention to him, the feeling Xia Wanning brings to him is something that no other woman in the harem can give him.

He was willing to stay with Xia Wanning during this period of time.

How-

On his way back from the morning court, Nanny Liu suddenly stopped him and said that the Queen Mother wanted to see him.

Although, he also wanted to come to the Cining Palace, after all, the Queen Mother was his biological mother, and he would never forget how he and his mother depended on each other when he was young.

at the same time--

The first thing he thought of was the conflict between Xia Wanning and the Queen Mother. If Xia Wanning knew that he had come to the Queen Mother's place, she would surely be angry with him when she returned.

But no matter what, the Queen Mother is his biological mother. As a son, I can't really give up my biological mother for Xia Wanning. Otherwise, what's the difference between that and being a tyrant?

Thinking of this, Ye Ling hesitated for a moment, then followed Nanny Liu to the Cining Palace.

……

Cining Palace

The empress dowager was neither surprised nor surprised at the emperor's arrival. In short, it was something she had expected.

If the emperor didn't come, she would be so angry that she would die.

Think about how she went through ten months of pregnancy and gave birth to the emperor. In order to support him to become the emperor, she had to endure so much suffering and shed so much blood. If the emperor really completely alienated himself from her because of that bitch Xia Wanning, then what was the difference between her, his own son, and that ungrateful beast?

In short, Jiang Rong was very satisfied that the emperor would come to her Cining Palace just because of her words.

"Mother, I heard from Madam Liu that you miss me, your son?"

After Ye Ling came in, he first bowed to Jiang Rong who was sitting on the high seat. He did not sit down, but just stood there and talked to her. Judging from his attitude, he would not stay in the Cining Palace for long and would leave.

In fact, Ye Ling had some answers in his mind, which was that his mother suddenly ordered Madam Liu to bring him to the Cining Palace at this time. It was obviously because he had been overly fond of Xia Wanning during this period, and his mother couldn't stand it anymore.

That's why she called him to the Cining Palace. I'm afraid she'll have to give him some earnest advice later, and in the end, mother and son will part ways again.

But what Ye Ling didn't expect was——

This time, Jiang Rong was not like she did in the past. Before he even stepped into the Cining Palace, she began to aggressively point out all the faults of Xia Wanning, asking him to treat all the concubines in the harem equally. There were so many women in the huge harem, and she was not the only one.

And this time...

Jiang Rong first glanced at Ye Ling, and seeing that he didn't sit down, she couldn't help but smile and joked, "Since when has my relationship with the emperor become so distant? It's okay that the emperor hasn't come to my Cining Palace for many days, but today I missed my son, so I sent Madam Liu to invite the emperor over. I wanted to reminisce and talk with the emperor, but I didn't expect that the emperor wouldn't even sit down after he came. It seems that he has nothing to say to me as his mother."

Jiang Rong had said so much, if Ye Ling continued to stand there like this, it would be his fault.

Soon, Ye Ling found a place to sit down and said, "Your Majesty, you are worrying too much. I have been sitting in the imperial study. I just want to stand for a while. If I keep sitting like this, it will not be good for my legs."

Jiang Rong scoffed at his poor explanation, but still smiled: "I asked you to come here mainly because I haven't seen you for a few days. The emperor also knows that you are my only son, so naturally I put all my efforts into you."

"I have been busy with government affairs these days. It is my fault for neglecting it. I will come to the Cining Palace more often to accompany my mother in the future."

"I am much happier with the emperor's words. I thought the emperor was always busy with government affairs and even forgot about me, his own mother."

Listening to Jiang Rong's suggestive words, Ye Ling wanted to argue, but he found that no matter how he argued and explained, he was indeed wrong.

And his mother's words did make him feel somewhat guilty.

Before Xia Wanning entered the palace, he was a qualified son.

It seemed that ever since Xia Wanning entered the palace, his son had become very unqualified.

He himself knew this.

"Don't worry, I won't be involved in the emperor's affairs anymore. Because I suddenly realized that the queen is right."

"Oh?"

When he heard Yu Huan's name, a strange look flashed across Ye Ling's eyes.

Jiang Rong had watched the emperor grow up under her watch. How could her, as his mother, not see what the emperor was thinking?

This made her feel proud. No matter how favored that bitch Xia Wanning was and how bewitched the emperor was, what could it matter?

Xia Wanning completely overlooked one point, that is the true nature of masculinity!

It's just that the queen is not very interested in this aspect, which surprised her. After all, she is an old lady in the palace and much older than these young people. Seeing these women in the harem fighting for the emperor's favor, with their heads broken and bloody, she can see whether they really want to win the favor or are pretending not to want to win the favor, or are they playing hard to get, she only needs to see through it at a glance.

The Queen was as quiet and gentle as a chrysanthemum. She could clearly sense that the Queen had no intention of competing for favor.

If the queen really wanted to compete for favor, she would not have gone to so much trouble to bring two stunningly beautiful women from outside into the palace.

After all, people outside don’t know anyone’s background, so how can they compare to someone like the queen, who has a clean family background?

"Mother, what did the Queen say to you? What made you think what the Queen said made sense?"

"Why? Are you curious about what the Queen and I said?"

Ye Ling smiled and said, "Mother, you are famous for not accepting anyone's reason, especially the younger generation. I am just curious about what the Queen said to you that made you keep praising the Queen and even listen to her."

Jiang Rong rolled her eyes at him and said, "It's no exaggeration to say that it's a blessing for Damu to marry a queen like Yu Huan."

In the past, Ye Ling would have certainly turned his nose up at the Queen Mother's words praising Yu Huan, but after meeting Yu Huan that day, he thought of that beautiful woman who was as elegant as a chrysanthemum. He was afraid that there would not be another woman like her in the entire harem.

Not to mention the entire harem, even if you look at the entire world, women like Yu Huan are probably rare.

"It seems that the emperor still understands me. He knows that I am not the kind of person who will just listen to anyone."

It's unclear whether Jiang Rong's words were sarcasm or a joke.

Ye Ling just smiled helplessly: "After all, the Queen Mother is my biological mother."

"Over the years, I have been too involved in the affairs of the emperor and the imperial concubine, which has caused the emperor to be deeply involved in the affairs and is in a very difficult situation. Since ancient times, heroes have been unable to resist the temptation of beauty. Although I don't like Imperial Concubine Xia, I have to do it because you, the emperor, like her."

"Over the years, because of the Imperial Concubine's matter, the Emperor and I have become quite estranged. Perhaps what the Empress said is right. The Emperor is the Son of Heaven and a wise ruler. You dote on the Imperial Concubine, but you are not so unscrupulous that you cannot distinguish right from wrong. At least in politics, you are still a wise ruler."

"The Queen advised me that the Emperor is not young anymore and no longer listens to me like he did when he was a child. He has his own opinions and knows clearly what he is doing. Whether it is right or wrong, the Emperor knows what the consequences will be. Since the Emperor still did it, then everything he has to bear is obviously within the Emperor's expectations."

At this point, Jiang Rong could only sigh helplessly: "In my life, I have never really been convinced by anyone, but the Queen's words really made me think deeply. What she said really makes sense."

When her gaze fell on Ye Ling again, she was no longer like before. Every time she mentioned Xia Wanning, she would be furious and act like she was in a fierce and domineering attitude.

Jiang Rong was exceptionally calm at this moment: "I am old, and the emperor is old too. The queen is right, I really shouldn't interfere too much with the emperor. I have only one condition now. You can dote on the imperial concubine as much as you want, but you must fulfill your responsibilities as the emperor, and you must not neglect the women in your harem. You can't let all the women feel disappointed just because you favor one woman. Remember, you are the emperor after all!"

Jiang Rong's words moved Ye Ling.

In his impression, his mother has always been a very strong woman.

To be honest, he was very afraid of her when he was a child.

After becoming the emperor, he had more power and was more confident, but deep down, he was still somewhat wary of Jiang Rong.

All in all, as I said before, the Queen Mother is his biological mother after all, and blood is thicker than water. Based on this reason alone, he must respect and be filial to her for the rest of his life.

The fact that his mother was so understanding and willing to make such a big concession on his side was obviously something he had never dared to think about in his life. He could not imagine that his mother, who had always been proud and arrogant, would actually take the initiative to bow her head and say such words to him.

Thinking that all this was due to the Queen's efforts, Ye Ling couldn't help but feel a little more favorable towards that intelligent woman who was as gentle as a chrysanthemum.

He was very satisfied with Queen Yu Huan.

It seems that after a few days, he will have to favor her quickly and completely consolidate her position in the palace. It would be great if she could give birth to a prince. Even if the woman he deeply loves is Wan'er, he will definitely enthrone the queen's son as the crown prince!

"Your Majesty has been busy with government affairs these days. Although you are the emperor, you are still an ordinary person. How can your body bear it if you continue like this? Madam Liu."

"Yes, Queen Mother."

"The Ministry of Internal Affairs recently received a new batch of Qishan black tea. I guess the emperor hasn't had time to taste the taste of Qishan black tea. Since you are here today, you might as well try it."

Qishan black tea was indeed just delivered from outside a few days ago.

These past few days, Ye Ling has been running back and forth between the morning court and Weiyang Palace, and Xia Wanning has always been a high-handed person who always uses the best of everything.

Although he has always heard that Qishan black tea tastes very good, its price may not be as expensive as West Lake Longjing.

Xia Wanning only drinks the extremely expensive teas such as West Lake Longjing. As for the teas ranked after West Lake Longjing, she basically won't even look at them.

Since I am here at the Cining Palace today, I also have the opportunity to taste the Qishan black tea and see if it is as rich in taste as rumored.

But what Ye Ling never expected was...

He thought the person who poured tea for him would be the same as usual, just a little maid in the Cining Palace, or Nanny Liu.

But what Ye Ling didn't expect was.

The woman in front of him was wearing a thin emerald green gown, with gorgeous features and seductive eyes. Just one glance was enough for him to keep his eyes on her and glance at her several times.
