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

Kunning Palace

It was barely lunchtime and the meals in Kunning Palace had just been placed on the table when Concubine Wu ordered people to bring in all kinds of items, big and small.

Last night, Wu Qingying served in the emperor's bedchamber all night and felt sore all over. Even when she got up early in the morning to help the emperor get dressed, she had to force herself to get out of bed while enduring the pain all over her body.

After Ye Ling left Ruyi Palace, she felt as if her soul had been drained out of her body in an instant. Supported by Yue'er, she staggered onto the bed and fell asleep.

In fact, she planned to come to Kunning Palace early in the morning, but she was so tired that her legs could not move at all.

When she woke up from a nap, it was almost evening. Wu Qingying quickly dressed and went straight to Kunning Palace.

Obviously, Yu Huan was not surprised at all by Wu Qingying's arrival. She even smiled slightly at the gifts of thanks she sent her, and accepted them all without being polite to her.

Wu Qingying is a very cheerful and straightforward person, both in his behavior and in his work.

On the contrary, if Yu Huan was polite to her, she would think Yu Huan was pretending.

However, she was very satisfied with the fact that Yu Huan accepted all the things she brought.

She smiled at Yu Huan and said, "I don't know what the Queen likes, so I took some valuable things from Ruyi Palace, which I think are good, and gave them to the Queen. I hope the Queen will not dislike them."

Yu Huan continued with a smile, "Zhaoyi Wu is too polite. If Zhaoyi Wu can show off something, it's obvious that it can't be too bad."

Having said that, Yu Huan waved her hand and asked Qiu'er to find her a seat.

After Wu Qingying sat down, he stared at her pretty little face for a while. It was obvious that she was very tired from serving the emperor last night.

Not only did he sleep until the evening, he had slept for the entire day, but he still looked very tired, as if he didn't get enough sleep.

Yu Huan said considerately, "Actually, Consort Wu doesn't have to come today."

Hearing the meaning of Yu Huan's words and thinking of something, Wu Qingying's face instantly turned red, and she looked embarrassed: "Empress... Empress, please stop teasing me."

"Speaking of which, I should thank the Queen more. I am not the kind of person who does not know how to repay gratitude. To be honest, if it were not for the Queen's clever plan, I am afraid that I would not have regained my favor so quickly."

Not only will you not regain favor, but it may even be difficult for you to have the chance to regain favor in the future.

Because the favor of Weiyang Palace was getting better day by day.

It was naturally impossible for her to snatch someone away from Xia Wanning, who was in great favor.

In the past, in order to win the emperor away from her, she really tried her best. It is no exaggeration to say that she used both soft and hard methods.

However, not only did it have no effect, but it pushed the emperor further away.

After trying this so many times in a row, she no longer had any hope. Apart from hating Xia Wanning to the core, she could not think of any other solution.

Until the Queen entered the palace...

Having tasted the sweetness of serving the emperor in bed again, Wu Qingying's eyes gleamed with hope again. She just stared at Yu Huan with a face full of gratitude.

She stood up and knelt respectfully towards Yu Huan: "Empress, from now on, I am yours. If you want me to do anything, just tell me. As long as it is something I can do, I will do my best."

"There's no need for this, Wu Zhaoyi. We are in the same harem, and we are all in the same boat. We are all thinking about the emperor."

As Yu Huan spoke, he walked down from the high seat and personally helped Wu Qingying up: "Zhaoyi Wu, please get up quickly."

"Your Majesty has just entered the palace and is not familiar with everything in the palace. It will take some time for you to completely take over the affairs of the harem. As for me, I have been in the palace for many years and I know everything about the harem. If Your Majesty needs anything in this regard, please feel free to ask."

Yu Huan was waiting for Wu Qingying to say this. Seeing this, she continued with Wu Qingying's words and said, "Right now, I do have a difficult matter that I need Wu Zhaoyi's help with."

Hearing this, Wu Qingying showed surprise: "Really?"

She was also afraid that Yu Huan would think that she was just saying it casually and would feel embarrassed to trouble her. After all, Yu Huan had accepted so many thank-you gifts from her.

Although she sincerely wanted to become Yu Huan's right-hand man.

Seeing that Yu Huan was not polite to her, Wu Qingying was still very happy. Now, she was still very happy to serve Yu Huan.

"Wu Zhaoyi also knows that the Weiyang Palace has been in great favor in recent years. Under the leadership of Concubine Xia, the entire harem has broken many of the expenses and salaries that are beyond the scope of her title."

Hearing this, Wu Qingying nodded seriously.

This one does.

The same is true for her Ruyi Palace, and it has even become worse.

That was entirely because Xia Wanning was so favored that it made people jealous. Since the emperor was not coming, they could only vent their resentment and jealousy by spending money.

Wu Qingying's brain was very quick in this regard, and she quickly said, "Does the Queen want me to reduce the expenses of Ruyi Palace in the future?"

Yu Huan nodded in appreciation: "Not only that, I also need Wu Zhaoyi to compensate you for all the expenses you have incurred on Ruyi Palace over the years in front of the emperor."

"..."

……

Ruyi Hall

As soon as it got dark, Ye Ling finished his government affairs early and went to Weiyang Palace as usual.

As a result, after just a few steps, Gu An realized that the emperor was walking towards Weiyang Palace again, and hurriedly reminded him carefully: "Your Majesty, you are going the wrong way! Didn't Your Majesty promise Wu Zhaoyi that you would go to Ruyi Palace to continue to accompany Wu Zhaoyi today?"

Hearing the voice, Ye Ling realized it belatedly, and his whole body seemed to react instantly. Wu Qingying's tearful face couldn't help but appear in his mind.

However, in his mind, Wu Qingying's beautiful face with tears in her eyes only appeared for a moment, and soon, his sight was replaced by Xia Wanning's angry face.

Even when he was in the imperial study, when he was reviewing memorials, even the contents of the memorials in his hand seemed to come to him like a ghost. The bruised and swollen face of Xia Wanning appeared in his mind, and he was so scared that his hands were shaking violently, and the brush in his hand fell uncontrollably to the ground.

Ye Ling had a terrible headache. He really couldn't quarrel with Xia Wanning. Every time they quarreled, it was okay only at the beginning. Later on, all he could think about was her.
