The deep palace and towering red walls are like silent guards, guarding this mysterious and solemn royal forbidden area.

The sun tried hard to penetrate the carved window lattices and sprinkle into the interior of the palace where Empress Fucha lived, trying to bring a touch of warmth to this quiet space. However, that touch of sadness was like a stubborn haze that could not be dispelled.

Empress Fucha sat quietly in front of the window, looking much more haggard than before.

She used to be so beautiful and charming that her every smile and frown could inspire admiration from everyone. But now, she looks so sad that people are afraid to approach her.

But strangely, her body was very different from before and had always been very healthy.

She knew that this must be the effect of the Sacred Heart Grass. But it was also because of this Sacred Heart Grass that her brother was bedridden and Yingluo could not be with him.

Whenever she thought of this, endless guilt and helplessness surged in her heart.

Outside the window, the breeze blew gently, rustling the leaves. The leaves swayed in the wind, as if telling the story of the years.

Empress Fucha sighed slightly, and the sigh seemed to come from the depths of her soul, carrying endless sorrow. She thought, perhaps this was a trick of fate.

The days passed one after another, like a calm lake, without a single ripple.

However, this seemingly peaceful day was broken one day.

It was a sunny day with a gentle breeze.

The sky is as blue as a gem, and white clouds are floating in the air like clouds.

The Queen Mother suddenly visited. She walked into Empress Fucha's palace with steady steps, and her footsteps were particularly clear in the silent palace.

Every step seems to carry an irresistible majesty, which makes people feel awe involuntarily.

The Queen Mother's expression was serious and solemn. She was dressed in gorgeous clothes, and the pearls and jade on her head sparkled brightly in the sun. The palace maids behind her lowered their heads and followed her respectfully. The atmosphere was so solemn that it seemed to condense water droplets.

Empress Fucha hurriedly stood up to greet her, bowed her head slightly, and said respectfully: "Empress Madam, why are you here?" Her voice was soft and gentle, with a hint of surprise.

The Queen Mother looked at Empress Fucha with a look of obvious dissatisfaction and worry in her eyes. That look was like a sharp sword, piercing Empress Fucha's heart.

She opened her mouth slowly and said, "Empress, it's time to take care of the harem. The emperor is completely obsessed with that Khoja Iparhan." The empress dowager's voice echoed in the empty palace, like a heavy hammer hitting Empress Fucha's heart.

Empress Fucha's heart trembled. She knew that she had been immersed in worry during this period and had completely neglected the affairs of the harem.

She quickly admitted her mistake: "I was careless and did not realize that Noble Shun had overstepped his bounds. Please enlighten me, Madam Empress."

There was a hint of guilt in her eyes, she lowered her head slightly, bent her body slightly, and made a respectful gesture.

At this time, the breeze outside the window blew gently, lifting a corner of the curtain, and the sun shone on Empress Fucha's face, but it could not warm the guilt in her heart. The warm sun seemed to remind her that she had a heavy responsibility as the queen.

"The emperor himself gave her a Chinese name, Chenbi." The empress dowager took a sip of tea and said with a faint smile.

The steam from the teacup blurred the Queen Mother's face for a moment. Although her expression seemed calm, she was actually filled with worry.

"Now she is with me every day, and I even built Baoyue Tower for her to live in. But she has been in the palace for a long time, but she still doesn't understand the palace rules."

The Queen Mother's eyes were filled with scrutiny as she observed Empress Fucha's reaction. Her words were filled with worry about the Emperor and dissatisfaction with the order of the harem.

"Chen Bi..." Empress Fucha couldn't help but be startled and slowly repeated the name. A bad premonition arose in her heart.

"Floating lights are like sparkling gold, and still shadows are like a jade." What a beautiful description. Empress Fucha was slightly stunned, and then she realized that the emperor had not been to Changchun Palace for a long time.

A sense of loss surged in her heart, as if she had been forgotten by the world.

At this time, a butterfly flew into the palace, circled around and flew away, as if it was also hinting at the departure of something. The butterfly's wings were colorful, shining beautifully in the sun. Empress Fucha looked at the direction where the butterfly left, feeling full of melancholy.

Empress Fucha looked at the Queen Mother's dissatisfied expression and had to promise her, "I will definitely teach her well." Although her voice was firm, she was a little unsure in her heart. She knew that this task was not easy, but as the Queen, she had to take on this responsibility.

After much thought, Empress Fucha, supported by Mingyu, prepared to go to Baoyue Tower to meet Chenbi.

Her steps were somewhat heavy, and she seemed to be thinking about something with every step she took. Her eyes showed a kind of caution and worry, and she didn't know what kind of woman Shen Bi was about to face.

The flowers beside the palace path are in full bloom, and the colorful petals are shining in the sun.

The red ones were like fire, the pink ones were like clouds, and the white ones were like snow. They were so beautiful that they were beyond measure. However, they could not dispel the haze in her heart.

The breeze blew gently, bringing bursts of floral fragrance, intoxicating people. But Empress Fucha had no intention of appreciating the beautiful scenery, her mind was all on Chen Bi, whom she was about to meet.

The group walked slowly, the sunlight shining on them, casting long shadows. Mingyu carefully supported Empress Fucha, observing her expression from time to time. Empress Fucha frowned slightly, with a lot of thoughts in her mind.

When we arrived at the Imperial Garden, we saw green trees and colorful flowers.

Tall trees stretch out their branches and leaves to block the sunlight for people. In the flowers, flowers of various colors bloom, bees are busy flying in the flowers, and butterflies are dancing among the flowers. The picture is like a beautiful painting, which is pleasing to the eyes.

A group of palace maids and eunuchs gathered in front of a big tree. The emperor raised his head and shouted to the tree, "Come down immediately!"

His voice was full of majesty, startling a flock of birds in the tree.

The breeze blew gently, and the branches swayed slightly, making a rustling sound.

The people under the tree raised their hands high, their faces filled with awe, as if they were welcoming a sacred being to the earth.

The scene was both funny and solemn, as if millions of subjects were devoutly waiting for the goddess to descend from heaven.

Suddenly, a pleasant ringtone sounded, clear and melodious. The ringtone was like the sound of nature, intoxicating people.

In the blink of an eye, a woman in white clothes with silver bells tied around her ankles fell from the sky.

Her figure is light and graceful, as graceful and moving as the bright moon in the clouds; her temperament is ethereal and clear, as pure and flawless as the snow on the Tianshan Mountains.

The fluttering sleeves of her clothes outlined a beautiful picture that was intoxicating. She fell steadily into the emperor's arms like a fairy descending to earth.

The emperor hugged her tightly, his eyes revealing a mixture of doting and reproach.

His eyes were full of love, as if the woman in his arms was his whole world. Then, he asked calmly, "What happened?"

The maidservant beside her was worried and answered cautiously: "Your Majesty, when the queen passed by here, she saw a baby bird falling from a tree. She felt pity for it and wanted to send it back to its nest."

The maid's voice trembled, afraid that she had said something wrong.

The emperor frowned slightly, and said helplessly: "Chen Bi..." But his eyes showed more tolerance for her. He knew that her kindness was her most precious quality.

"Your Majesty, don't be angry. It's all my fault." Chen Bi spoke with an extremely pleasant voice, and every word she uttered sounded like singing.

That voice seemed to penetrate people's hearts, and everyone around couldn't help but listen. Her eyes were innocent and well-behaved, and her eyes were watery, as if they could speak.

It is rumored that there is a magical bird in the West called Kalavinka, which serves the Buddha with its beautiful singing.

The sound of the dragon was as sweet as a garuda, which even the Buddha would be intoxicated by. This pleasant sound naturally won the emperor's heart.

The emperor sighed softly, took out a handkerchief from his arms, and wiped the dust off her face himself.

His movements were so gentle and his eyes were filled with endless tenderness, as if she was the only one left in the world.

Of course, because of this, the emperor did not see his wife, Fucha Rongyin, who was standing beside him.

Chen Bi smiled softly, just like Kalavinka humming a song, and her smile was as gorgeous and dazzling as a flower blooming in spring. The song was melodious and echoed in the air, making people intoxicated.

However, when she was halfway through singing, Chen Bi suddenly turned her head and looked in the direction of Empress Fucha, with innocence and curiosity flashing in her eyes.

The two looked at each other. Empress Fucha's body stiffened instantly. The moment she saw Shen Bi's face, her mind went blank and she couldn't find a suitable word to describe her beauty.

Her eyes fell blankly on Chen Bi, and a complex emotion surged in her heart, with both admiration for Chen Bi's unparalleled beauty and vigilance against unknown dangers.

The beauty of Chen Bi is like the bright stars that cannot be ignored.

Her skin is as white as snow and as smooth as a baby's; her eyes are as bright as gems, sparkling with charming light; her lips are as delicate and tempting as cherries, making people want to kiss her.

Her beauty lies not only in her appearance, but also in her unique temperament and irresistible charm.

"What's wrong?" The emperor looked in the direction of her gaze out of curiosity, but his field of vision was empty and there was no figure in front of him.

The emperor's eyes were full of confusion. He didn't understand why Chen Bi suddenly looked in that direction.

"There was a person standing there just now." Chen Bi smiled and said softly, "She was staring at us, but when you turned around, she was scared away."

There was a hint of playfulness in Chen Bi's voice, which made people smile knowingly.

After hearing this, the emperor's face changed slightly, and he immediately turned to look at Li Yu. Li Yu hurriedly stepped forward and reminded in a low voice: "Your Majesty, it's the Empress who is here."

There was a hint of nervousness in Li Yu's voice, he knew that the emperor had deep feelings for the queen.

Upon hearing that it was the queen, the emperor's face instantly showed surprise and he hurriedly strode in that direction, eager to see his wife who had not stepped out of the palace for a long time.

There was an eagerness in his steps, and a hint of expectation in his eyes that was hard to conceal. His heart was filled with longing for the queen, as if at this moment, the whole world became brighter.

Chen Bi stood there quietly, watching the emperor's back gradually going away, smiling slightly, thinking to herself: "Empress Fucha is indeed the one that the emperor loves the most."

There was a deep meaning in the depths of her eyes, which was hard to fathom, as if she was secretly planning something. The breeze blew gently, ruffling her hair, but it could not blow away the deep light in her eyes.

Empress Fucha looked at the emperor walking towards her and felt a warm feeling in her heart.

Her eyes were filled with emotion, and she knew that the emperor's feelings for her had never changed.

But at the same time, she also felt the threat brought by Chen Bi. She didn't know what kind of changes this beautiful woman would bring to the harem, so she could only do her best to maintain the peace of the harem.

The emperor walked up to Empress Fucha, his eyes full of tenderness.

Empress Fucha bowed her head slightly and said softly, "Your Highness, I pay my respects to you."

The emperor gently held Empress Fucha's hand and said, "Rongyin, are you out here to relax? I haven't seen you for a long time and I miss you very much." His voice was low and magnetic, which made people feel warm in their hearts.

Empress Fucha was slightly stunned, then said: "I heard that the emperor has a new beauty, so I came to see her." There was a hint of helplessness in her voice. She knew that as the queen, she had to face these things.

After hearing this, the emperor showed a trace of embarrassment on his face. He knew that he had been too fond of Chen Bi during this period and ignored the queen's feelings.

He quickly said: "Rong Yin, don't get me wrong, Chen Bi is a simple and kind woman. I just admire her kindness and beauty." There was a hint of explanation in his voice.

Empress Fucha smiled and said, "Your Majesty, I understand. It's just that the Queen Mother is worried that Your Majesty will be fascinated by beauty and delay the affairs of state."

There was a hint of worry in her voice. She knew that the emperor had a heavy responsibility and could not neglect state affairs because of a woman.

After hearing this, the emperor was moved. He gently held Empress Fucha's hand and said, "Rongyin, don't worry. I won't be dazzled by beauty. I know that I have a great responsibility and will not delay the administration of state because of a woman."

His voice was full of determination, which made people feel warm in their hearts.

Empress Fucha looked at the emperor, feeling relieved. She knew that the emperor was a responsible person and would not let her down. She nodded slightly and said, "Your Majesty, I believe you."

Her voice was full of trust, which made people feel warm in their hearts.

At this time, Chen Bi was quietly watching the emperor and Empress Fucha from a distance, feeling jealous.

She didn't understand why the emperor was so affectionate towards Empress Fucha.

There was a flash of unwillingness in Chen Bi's eyes. He bit his lips lightly, and a determined look appeared in his eyes.
