After the death of the previous emperor, the Empress Dowager became arrogant

Everyone looked at the noble concubine.

The noble concubine turned pale.

The Empress Dowager had disliked the Late Emperor for more than a day or two, so when the Late Emperor behaved in a ridiculous manner, the Empress Dowager just let him do what he wanted.

The new emperor has not yet appointed a queen or taken concubines, and now the harem is ruled by Empress Dowager Yuan alone.

Seeing this, the noble concubine immediately knelt down and said, "Please forgive me, Your Majesty, I..."

"You don't have to forgive me, but you've been thinking about the late emperor's favor, and I can't let you down."

Empress Dowager Yuan put down her teacup and said, "Why don't you kneel before the coffin to show your sincerity?"

There was a gasp from below.

This sincerity is worth further study.

Kneeling for one day is kneeling, kneeling until the coffin is taken out for burial is also kneeling, kneeling at the imperial tomb for three years is also kneeling.

It all depends on when the Queen Mother gives in.

[A word can decide life and death. Are you envious? Jealous? Do you want power? ]

A faint voice came from somewhere.

Yuan Qing suppressed the urge to roll his eyes, and said calmly: [I don't want to, working hard on your own is not as good as just sitting back and enjoying the fruits of others' labor.

You are a villain, always instigating me to go against the protagonist.

It's not like you to say those things.

Tell me, what inappropriate stuff did you watch secretly again? 】

[No, I just got the script from headquarters.

Sister Qing, I have to tell you that you are the protagonist now.

The reason why Empress Dowager Yuan became the protagonist was because most of your luck and fortune were allocated to her, so she became the empress dowager in power.

So you really don't want to consider...taking charge? 】

Faced with Roudun'er's persistent guidance, Yuan Qing had only two words in mind: refuse.

[Do you think Empress Dowager Yuan was able to hold on to her high position just by luck?

You underestimate her. 】

At this time, Empress Dowager Yuan was leaning on the couch and rubbing her forehead. Her gentle eyebrows were slightly wrinkled, hiding a hint of fierceness that was not easy to detect.

Yuan Qing quietly stepped forward, went behind Empress Dowager Yuan and massaged her shoulders with moderate force.

After a while, Empress Dowager Yuan's frown gradually relaxed, and she pulled Yuan Qing to her side, "Qing'er, you still care about me. Come and sit here."

"Yes."

When the concubines saw that Yuan Qing calmed the empress dowager's anger with just a simple gesture, they no longer dared to look down on the young concubine who entered the palace the latest.

After all, they have the support of the Queen Mother, His Majesty, and the Prime Minister.

Even if you never get married, your wealth and glory in this life will be guaranteed.

Seeing that the Queen Mother was feeling sleepy, everyone said goodbye and left the Queen Mother's palace.

[Sister Qing, why did you say that Empress Dowager Yuan was not simple? In the original world, she was clearly just a supporting role.]

Yuan Qing couldn't help but think of the Empress Dowager Yuan in the information.

Even she couldn't help but admire her, saying that she was worthy of being the protagonist of a heroine-led novel.

Even in the early days, all the members of her mother's family were forced to commit suicide by hitting their heads against the wall in prison, her only son also died in prison, and she herself was banished to the cold palace by the dog emperor and was almost killed.

But the Empress Dowager Yuan gritted her teeth and persevered. She turned the tables with a false imperial edict, held the emperor hostage and controlled the government, and stabilized the Yuan Dynasty for decades.

Even though they are a bit cruel at times, who among those in high positions doesn’t have blood on their hands?

But Empress Dowager Yuan, as a daughter, was able to do things that many men could not do.

This is the real heroine in her mind.

Yuan Qing stopped to think and asked: [Think carefully, what was Empress Dowager Yuan doing when the noble concubine was making things difficult for her today? ]

Roudun'er called up the video playback in the hall just now and said in surprise: [She is watching you! ]

[Yes, to be precise, she is observing me. Ability? Or value? ]

Yuan Qing thought back to the situation at that time, “It might be because of the Dog Emperor. I felt that from the first time I met her, she never treated me as her beloved niece.

I still have to thank you for the earrings, otherwise I still wouldn't be able to understand her thoughts and pull out the expensive concubine. 】

【Can't understand……】

Roudun'er had a wrinkled face.

Yuan Qing wanted to pull it out and give it a good rub, so he coaxed it again: "I'm telling you, come out and let me rub it."

Roudun'er felt heartbroken when he thought of the few strands of hair that had been plucked out before.

But it is also very curious.

Finally, curiosity overcame a few hairs, and it appeared with its round butt facing outward, then buried its head in its clothes.

[You said it only once, touch it, and tell me after you are done. ]

[To put it simply, it means eating, drinking and having fun. As long as it is within her tolerance range, she can do whatever makes her happy. ]

Yuan Qing touched Roudun'er's smooth and white fur again as he wished, and his mood improved a lot.

Roudun'er couldn't help but let out a gurgling sound.

The next day, Yuan Qing was awakened by a nightmare.

As soon as she opened her eyes, she felt a sharp pain in her head, as if she was being pricked by a needle.

"Miss, what's wrong with you?" A little maid next to her was so anxious that she wanted to find the imperial physician.

Yuan Qing pulled her back and said, "No, I'll just take my time."

Only then did she remember that she had been so overwhelmed by the memories yesterday that she fainted from the pain.

Because from today on, she will begin to keep vigil with the other concubines.

Fearing that she wouldn't be able to cope with it, she asked Roudun'er to transfer the original owner's memories for fourteen years and all the world information to her before going to bed.

As a result, I felt dizzy.

"Qingdai, what time is it now?" Yuan Qing asked with a yawn.

Qingdai and Qingguo were both personal maids of the original owner. Qingdai was meticulous and Qingguo knew medicine, and they were carefully selected by the Prime Minister's wife.

Entering the palace with them was Yuan Yi, a guard whom they had met once before in prison.

However, he was not registered, but hid in the dark as a secret guard to protect Yuan Qing.

This time she would stay in the palace for a long time, so in order to take better care of her, he brought them into the palace overnight.

"Miss, it is now Yin hour."

Seeing that her master was about to get up, Qing Dai hurried forward to serve her, "The Queen Mother just sent a message saying that the young lady has an old illness and does not need to get up early. It would be fine if she rested for a while."

Both she and Qingguo knew that the young lady did not enter the palace voluntarily.

So we agreed that when there were no outsiders around, she would still be called Miss.

Yuan Qing quietly moved her legs which were numb from being pressed down, and one of her hands involuntarily touched her chest.

She remembered that the original owner had frequent heart attacks and had been drinking herbal medicine every day for more than ten years for treatment.

After she came, except for fainting twice when she first arrived and in prison, she never showed any signs of illness.

How is this going?

As soon as she finished thinking about it, she immediately felt discomfort in her chest, as if someone was squeezing her heart hard, making it difficult to breathe.

This mouth must have been blessed!

Qingdai hurriedly helped her onto the bed, and Qingguo went out to call the imperial physician.

The Queen Mother rushed over with four or five imperial physicians.

Several imperial doctors took turns to treat the patient and exchanged glances with each other.

After confirming it, the leading doctor Chen replied: "Your Highness, the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother Qing has been poisoned."

This diagnosis was unexpected by everyone.

Empress Dowager Yuan was also surprised and asked again: "Are you sure it was poisoned?"

"It is indeed poisoning." The imperial doctors said in unison.

Doctor Chen stepped forward and explained, "But it's not very serious. Judging from the Majesty's physical condition, this poison can only cause the Majesty's old illness to relapse, and it has no other major effects."

Yuan Qing had actually woken up.

She felt like she was trapped in a dark place, without even a hint of light.

But she could hear all the sounds around her.

She groped her way forward cautiously in the darkness.

After walking for a long time, it was still dark.

"Meat dumpling?"

……

No response.

Yuan Qing stretched his arm forward and suddenly felt a soft hand.

It's icy cold, without any temperature at all.

She was so frightened that she screamed and quickly dodged.

There seemed to be a scream coming from the other side.

But compared to her pig-slaughtering howl, other people's voices were softer and more melodious, and much more pleasant to hear.

Yuan Qing held his throbbing heart and asked bravely, "My dear little beauty across the street, you are here too. What a coincidence..."

After saying this, she felt embarrassed.

After half a minute, the other side asked: "Who are you?"

"My name is Yuan Qing. Let's be friends. Can you please not take me away?" Yuan Qing tried to communicate with the other party.

"Are you my sister?" The voice on the other end seemed to be filled with joy.

Yuan Qing was still thinking, besides having a brother, where did he get a sister from? Besides, the original owner was also an only child...

While she was still thinking about this, she immediately felt her forearm being tightly grasped by a pair of hands.

"Girl, please talk nicely. Humans and ghosts can't communicate!!!" Yuan Qing struggled violently.

They were very close, and Yuan Qing clearly heard the little girl chuckle, and he hugged her even tighter.

"So you thought I was a ghost. I didn't expect that President Yuan, who they call unkind, would be afraid of ghosts?"

Modern people?
