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

Qiu Er suppressed her uneasiness and said respectfully, "Wu Zhaoyi, my queen wants you to come over."

If this had happened under normal circumstances, and this was what Wu Zhaoyi and her queen had agreed upon at the time, but Wu Zhaoyi did not come at the agreed time. The queen was worried that Wu Zhaoyi had overslept, so she asked her to come and remind her.

After seeing that Wu Zhaoyi had clearly woken up, she did not go to Kunning Palace.

Although Qiu'er was surprised, she wondered if Wu Zhaoyi had just woken up and had not yet remembered this matter.

At the same time, he was thinking that the Empress was indeed very good at predicting things. Judging from Concubine Wu's attitude, she had indeed forgotten about her plan to go to Kunning Palace.

Otherwise, the Empress would not have personally arranged for herself to come and invite Wu Zhaoyi.

But who knows...

After hearing her words, Wu Qingying did not answer her.

On the contrary, Zhang Ying, who was standing next to Wu Qingying, looked at Qiu'er quietly for a while, then said, "The Queen is so thoughtful. Miss Qiu'er, please come here in person. Please go back and tell the Queen that Wu Zhaoyi is not feeling well and will not go to Kunning Palace. When Wu Zhaoyi is better tomorrow, she can go to Kunning Palace to pay a visit to the Queen."

"But……"

Qiu'er opened her mouth and wanted to say something else, but when the words came to her lips, she suddenly remembered the special instructions that the Empress gave her when she came out of Kunning Palace.

If it is impossible to invite Wu Zhaoyi, then don't force it, just give her a reminder and that will be enough.

Whether Wu Zhaoyi comes or not is her own business.

Thinking of this, Qiu Er stopped insisting and said respectfully, "Yes, Lady Zhang. I will go back and tell you, Concubine Wu, you should have a good rest."

Having said that, Qiu'er turned and left.

"strangeness."

Wu Qingying watched Qiu'er just turn around and leave without even saying a few words, and couldn't help feeling a little strange.

"What's weird?"

"If the Queen really used me to lure the Emperor to her Kunning Palace as you said, then when Qiu'er came to call me over this time and saw that I didn't move, she would have tried to trick me into going over. But she only said one sentence and left without saying anything when she saw that I didn't want to go?"

Zhang Ying's shrewd eyes flickered: "Haven't you already experienced the Queen's scheming and cunning, Wu Zhaoyi? Besides, Qing'er is the Queen's personal maid, so she's naturally cunning. Maybe she's just afraid that you, Wu Zhaoyi, will suspect her, so she did this on purpose?"

"Right."

After hearing what Zhang Ying said, Wu Qingying immediately dispelled her worries.

It was getting late outside. If it were two days ago, the emperor would have come here.

And even at this point today, there is still no movement from the Emperor.

This made Wu Qingying a little worried: "Mrs. Zhang, do you think the emperor will really go to Kunning Palace tonight?"

"how is this possible?"

Zhang Ying interrupted Wu Qingying without even thinking: "Wu Zhaoyi, you have served the emperor for so long, don't you know what kind of person the emperor is? The emperor doesn't even look down on the third daughter of the Yu family, otherwise, he would have gone to her on the day Yu Huan entered the palace!"

The children of noble families all care about being well-matched, not to mention that the man is a king who is high above everyone else?

If the person entering the palace had not changed and was still Yu Baozhu, the eldest daughter of the Yu family, the emperor might have gone to Kunning Palace on the day Yu Baozhu entered the palace.

A concubine's daughter like Yu Huan has never been liked by the Yu family since she was a child. Not to mention that the Yu family doesn't like her, after she entered the palace, with such an identity, how many people would be able to like and respect her?

The emperor is no exception.

What the emperor cares most about is the matching of family backgrounds, otherwise he would not have doted on Concubine Xia so excessively.

Wu Qingying believed Zhang Ying, although she was also a little worried that the emperor would not come to Ruyi Palace tonight and would really go to Kunning Palace.

But compared to what Yu Huan and Zhang Ying said, Wu Qingying would definitely listen to Zhang Ying. After all, Zhang Ying was hers and had been by her side giving her advice and suggestions over the years, all of which were done for her own good.

……

Kunning Palace

From a distance, I saw Qiu'er coming back alone, looking listless.

Before Qiu'er came to her side, Nanny Yue couldn't help but gloat over it and said, "Oh, I was wondering who it was. I saw from a distance that this person was surrounded by a dead aura. It turned out to be you, Qiu'er. What's going on? Didn't the Queen ask you to go to Ruyi Palace to invite Wu Zhaoyi? Why didn't you invite Wu Zhaoyi back? You are such an incompetent servant. You can't even do such a small thing that the Queen asked you to do."

Qiu'er is now in a state of confusion. After all, Wu Zhaoyi just said this during the day, and when the Empress told her about this, Wu Zhaoyi agreed fully and did not show any resistance or rejection.

Even when the Empress asked her to go to Ruyi Palace to invite Wu Zhaoyi, she didn't think much about it at all. She thought that she just needed to remind Wu Zhaoyi and she would come with her.

But who would have thought that after arriving at Ruyi Palace, Concubine Wu not only didn't talk to me, but she didn't even pay any attention to me. It was Concubine Zhang who rejected me.

Qiu'er always felt that the atmosphere in Ruyi Palace today was different from when she saw Wu Zhaoyi at other times, but she couldn't tell what the difference was.

She was already in a depressed mood, and when she came back she heard Nanny Yue's deliberate sarcasm. Qiu'er didn't even bother to pay attention to her.

I originally planned to bypass her and go in directly to tell the Empress about this matter.

Who would have known that just as she passed Nanny Yue and before she could take a step, Nanny Yue reached out and stopped her.

Nanny Yue looked condescending, as if she was looking at Qiu'er with eyes like a clown: "What's going on, Qiu'er? You haven't told me yet, you haven't even met Wu Zhaoyi at all, or maybe you went to invite her, but Wu Zhaoyi didn't want to come at all?"

Why didn’t I feel that Nanny Yue was so annoying before?

Qiu'er was already in a bad mood, and now that she was deliberately provoking her, she became even more unhappy.

He glared at her fiercely: "Whether I invited Wu Zhaoyi or not, what does it have to do with you, Aunt Guan Yue?"

"It's none of my business, but the Queen is the head of the harem after all, so it's better not to do such embarrassing things. It's okay if it's embarrassing once or twice, but if it happens too many times, it's not just the Queen's face that's embarrassed, it's also related to the reputation of our Prime Minister's Mansion."

"you--"

"The Empress said that the Emperor would come tonight. Look how dark it is now. Normally, the Emperor would have finished his court affairs by this time, right?"
