You have to know that she has a clean background and is the daughter of a wealthy family.

Although she was a third-rank Zhaoyi and had enjoyed the special treatment that only second-rank concubines had over the years, at least in name, she was indeed a third-rank Zhaoyi.

And now, the sisters Qingluan and Qingnu have only been in the palace for a few days?

The emperor made an exception and conferred them the title of third-rank Zhaoyi.

Third-grade Zhaoyi?

She has been in the palace for many years and has served the emperor wholeheartedly for many years.

Could it be that she, a daughter of a rich family, is not as good as two prostitutes?

How could Wu Qingying accept this?

It was obvious that Xia Wanning was on the verge of falling out of favor, so she should be happy, just like the other women in the harem.

But, forgiving her now, she can't be happy at all.

When Zhang Ying arrived, she saw Wu Qingying losing her temper in her palace again, including the way she smashed things. Zhang Ying could think of it on the way here.

Zhang Ying obviously didn't feel much about Wu Qingying's anger.

The only thing she felt was...

It's a pity that the floor is full of messes. She has many of them just waiting for Wu Qingying to give them all to her when she doesn't want them anymore.

Now, she can’t get these things!

It's Wu Qingying's personality. He has been with her for so many years. Although Wu Qingying has been very good to her and treated her well over the years, she will never forget herself as long as she has something.

Although in the eyes of outsiders, including Zhang Ying herself, she knows that she is just a dog beside Wu Qingying, but at least, it is a living example that Wu Qingying is very good to her dog, isn't it?

"Wu Zhaoyi, are you okay?"

Wu Qingying was obviously about to die of anger at Zhang Ying's question. She stared at her intently and asked, "Are you okay?"

She was instantly angered by Zhang Ying's words and laughed: "What do you mean? I don't look like I'm fine!"

"I really didn't expect that the two sisters Qingluan and Qingnu would be so resourceful! They have only been in the palace for a few days, but they have already bewitched the emperor! Not only has the emperor favored them for so many days in a row, but he has even made an exception and granted them the rank of third-rank imperial concubines!"

Wu Qingying couldn't help but get angry when she mentioned this. She had obviously smashed everything that could be smashed in the hall.

Her anger was almost vented, but when the sisters Qingluan and Qingnu were mentioned again, her anger, which had just subsided a little, rose up again at this moment.

She was so angry that she took a step forward and walked directly in front of Zhang Ying, grabbing her thin shoulders with both hands.

Zhang Ying's thin shoulders were grabbed by Wu Qingying and it hurt, and her brows were furrowed at this moment.

But she gritted her teeth and refused to cry out in pain.

I guess he just saw Zhang Ying's forbearance and her pale face when she was pinched by her.

Wu Qingying snorted and pushed Zhang Ying away: "You're making me so mad! You're almost making me die of anger!"

"Mrs. Zhang, you say that I have served the emperor for so many years. Even if I have no merit, I have worked hard, right? In just a few days, he has raised these two prostitutes to such a high position."

"If he had given them something else, it wouldn't have been a big deal. Even if it was a fourth-rank rank, just below this one, I wouldn't have been so angry. But the Emperor raised their positions to the same level as mine!"

"Could it be that in the emperor's heart, a noble lady like me is not as good as two prostitutes?"

The key is that she has been serving the emperor wholeheartedly for so many years!

I'm afraid that only she herself knows the grievances she has suffered at this moment.

In fact, a smart person like Zhang Ying could understand without Wu Qingying’s explanation how a proud person like her could possibly accept two prostitutes being on an equal footing with her?

"Wu Zhaoyi, please don't get excited. Besides, you know what kind of person the emperor is. Maybe the emperor did this on purpose? It just happened to be a coincidence with you, Wu Zhaoyi."

Hearing this, Wu Qingying was stunned at first, but soon, she seemed to come to her senses quickly and continued to think about Zhang Ying's words: "You mean..."

She raised her eyebrows and looked at Zhang Ying in front of her. Soon, an idea popped into her mind.

That is--

"You mean to say that the emperor treated me just like he did back then? He deliberately favors me and comes to my Ruyi Palace every time just to piss off Xia Wanning?"

In the past, Wu Qingying was unwilling to admit it, and she was even deceiving herself in her heart into thinking that the emperor had feelings for her. After all, when she had just entered the palace, the emperor had favored her for a period of time. She didn't believe that the emperor was really that heartless!

But now——

After personally experiencing it, and after practicing it countless times, even if Wu Qingying didn't want to believe it, she had to believe it. The emperor really didn't have her in his heart. If he did have her...

Including the fact that the sisters Qingluan and Qingnu were conferred the title of third-rank Zhaoyi, which made her even more disappointed in the emperor!

Although the emperor did not know why he and Xia Wanning had such a fierce quarrel in the Weiyang Palace that day, Xia Wanning did indeed anger the emperor this time, so much so that the emperor stayed in the Yangxin Palace for so many days and favored the sisters Qingluan and Qingnu even more unscrupulously.

You know, although he had deliberately used me before, to test Xia Wanning and to stimulate her, it was never as excessive as it is now.

Now the emperor has gone too far, it seems...

I no longer care about Xia Wanning at all.

At least when the emperor came to her before, Xia Wanning would close the palace gates by herself. If the emperor didn't care, she would pretend to be sick and seduce the emperor over.

but now--

Apparently, Xia Wanning had used all of the two tricks that she had used on her before in the past few days.

result--

Not to mention that the emperor went there in a hurry, in his eyes, there was not the slightest worry or heartache.

Then, Xia Wanning panicked.

She was completely panicked. In the past, whenever she had a quarrel with the emperor, it was never her turn to go to the emperor.

It was because the emperor couldn't wait or missed her, so he came to comfort her. This time -

This was the first time that Xia Wanning was willing to lower her status to please the emperor since she entered the palace after being favored.

If it were the emperor in the past, he would have been flattered. Not to mention Xia Wanning coming to coax him in person, I'm afraid that just Xia Wanning's appearance in front of the emperor would have made the emperor bear to be angry with her. I'm afraid he would have reconciled with the emperor long ago.

But this time——

At this moment, Wu Qingying finally realized that something was wrong.

She looked at Zhang Ying in front of her and was furious.

The emperor was filled with anger. He thought that he, a young lady from an aristocratic family who kept herself clean, was not as good as two prostitutes in his eyes!

Even though she had been hoping that Xia Wanning would fall out of favor and be disliked by the emperor for all these years, and now Xia Wanning was really disliked by the emperor and was about to fall, she couldn't be happy at all because of the affairs of the sisters Qingluan and Qingnu.

But after hearing what Zhang Ying said, the anger in her heart subsided a lot at this moment. She just stared at Zhang Ying in front of her, and she didn't know how long she had been staring at her.

It lasted so long that even the ferocious anger on her face eased a lot at this moment.

"According to what you said, the emperor didn't pay any attention to me at all?"

Indeed, if what Zhang Ying said was true, the emperor really did not pay attention to her and did not think about her at all.

After hearing Wu Qingying's question, Zhang Ying knew that if she didn't give a good answer, she would most likely offend Wu Qingying again.

She paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Yes, Wu Zhaoyi, no matter what, you have been serving the emperor for so many years. How could the emperor do something so inconsiderate of your feelings?"

"Although the emperor has paid more attention to the imperial concubine since she entered the palace, it does not mean that he has forgotten your existence, Wu Zhaoyi. I think the emperor is only concerned about being angry with the imperial concubine and deliberately provoking her to make her angry. Otherwise, he would not..."

At this point, Zhang Ying glanced at Wu Qingying and said, "Otherwise, I wouldn't have done something so unruly."

Or it could be Zhang Ying. Wu Qingying has been furious about Xia Wanning many times over the years.

Of course, every time she got angry, her servants in Ruyi Palace would go to Zhang Ying and invite her over.

As long as Zhang Ying came, no matter how angry someone was, she could easily resolve it.

It's the same this time.

Although Wu Qingying was still a little angry, what Zhang Ying said to her was not completely unreasonable.

"Then tell me, what should I do in this situation?"

Although Wu Qingying felt better after Zhang Ying's explanation and consolation,

But as long as she thought about it, she had only lost to Xia Wanning in the past, but even if she was unwilling to admit it, Xia Wanning was indeed far superior to her in both beauty and family background.

Just looking at Xia Wanning's stunningly beautiful face, not to mention the emperor, even his own face, which he was so proud of, was instantly shattered in front of Xia Wanning.

Although she had been against Xia Wanning in the past, at least in terms of beauty and family background, Wu Qingying had always been able to distinguish them clearly, and knew clearly that Xia Wanning was far superior to her.

So she had never been angry about this. Most of the time it was because Xia Wanning was too arrogant and did not take her initiative to show goodwill seriously.

In addition, every time the emperor finally agreed to come to her place, she always refused.
