Quickly wear it and get rid of his virtuous character
Chapter 284 The Unfavored Concubine
In fact, Su Tong did not regret his choice, because according to the situation at that time, he would also choose to rescue the queen. Because only when the queen was alive could he walk comfortably in the harem. The two of them were mutually beneficial.
Of course, the Queen's plot against her made her feel like she had eaten a fly, and she felt very nauseous and wanted to vomit.
After the queen finished her confinement, Su Tong stayed in his own palace with his child except for paying his respects to her. Unless the queen specifically invited him, he would never go to the queen's palace.
The queen did not think about the possibility of her plan being exposed by others, and thought that Su Tong was avoiding suspicion. After all, so many high-ranking concubines had been demoted to a lower level, and now the most favored imperial concubine was just a Zhaoyi.
After this experience, the beauties who had been selected to enter the palace became extremely honest, and they acted like turtles when talking about their heads. They even dared not to compete for favor in the harem.
The queen took this opportunity to promote two young and beautiful palace maids. These two palace maids each had her own characteristics. One was elegant and refined, and the other was as beautiful and fragrant as a rose, with a slim and graceful figure.
Although the emperor was not a man who admired beauty, he still accepted the two beauties with a smile when he saw them. He conferred titles on the two beauties, and a month later he conferred the title of talented lady on one of them.
Although the emperor dotes on his concubines, he is also extremely restrained, which is what the queen is most relieved about. However, this restraint immediately fails when he meets the imperial concubine.
As the mother of a country, the queen knows the heavy responsibility she carries. She no longer has any love for the emperor, but she cannot stand the fact that the emperor treats another woman differently and even gives her special treatment. She can ask the emperor not to love her, but she cannot let the emperor love only one person.
Once a woman possesses something that is unique to a man, she will have the most unique position in the man's heart.
Over the years, the Queen has been trying every means to bring down the Imperial Concubine, but the other party was too well guarded, and with the Emperor watching nearby, the Queen could only hold back. It was not until she became pregnant that the Imperial Concubine could not help but take the first step. The Queen then felt that her opportunity had come, and fortunately everything went as she had imagined.
But the only thing that made the queen feel depressed was that the emperor only demoted the concubine, which should have been banished to the cold palace.
The most successful point of this calculation is that he has reversed the impression of the imperial concubine in the emperor's mind. From now on, the emperor will no longer think of the imperial concubine as a beautiful fairy or a harmless little white rabbit, but a woman with a vicious mind. Even if the emperor loves the imperial concubine very much, this kind of love is ultimately like gold mixed with shit.
The harem was completely settled down. Even though there were still some people with ulterior motives in the previous dynasty, as the princes moved away from the center of power one after another, it was obviously the emperor's intention, and they became extremely obedient in an instant.
Imperial Concubine... No, now she should be called Empress Zhaoyi. Ever since she was demoted, the Imperial Concubine couldn't believe that the Emperor would be so heartless. He even didn't come to the palace to see her for several months. The Imperial Concubine was completely panicked.
Most of the other concubines entered the palace because of family power, but she entered the palace because of the emperor's favor for her. There was love between the two, but after losing this relationship, the imperial concubine found that she had nothing...
"Your Majesty, Empress Zhaoyi is here again. She said she made your favorite cakes. Do you want me to invite her over?" Peng Sihai said this with his head down, his heart beating fast.
The emperor continued to review the memorials without even raising his head. "No concubine can enter Zhengtai Palace without the emperor's summons. Go tell the queen and ask her to teach the concubines the rules."
When Peng Sihai heard this, he wiped the sweat from his forehead. The imperial concubine who used to be the most favored in the harem had completely disappeared, and would be a once-in-a-century concubine from now on. Perhaps relying on the emperor's old love, she could regain the position of concubine, but it was probably impossible for her to return to her previous life as the most favored concubine in the harem.
Seeing Peng Sihai coming out, Empress Chaoyi smiled. She stepped forward, but saw that he pursed his lips and shook his head slightly. Her heart had already collapsed, and tears welled up in her beautiful eyes.
"Your Majesty..." Zhaoyi wanted to say that the emperor was heartless, but she couldn't offend anyone in this matter. After all, it was she who could not resist the temptation and attacked the queen, which led to the emperor's extreme disappointment in her.
Empress Zhaoyi returned in despair and was even laughed at by the harem. In the past, the imperial concubines never had to report and went directly to Zhengtai Palace, but this time...
After the emperor and others left, he raised his head woodenly, blinked his eyes, and smiled at himself in his heart. It turned out that as an emperor, he should not have any extra emotions.
Spring went and autumn came, and it was New Year's Eve again. The emperor conferred titles on the six palaces, but this time, all of them were low-ranking concubines. They were all promoted one level, but the highest rank was only a concubine.
What all the women in the harem could not have imagined was that Su Tong was made a concubine, and this time she was the virtuous concubine, one of the four concubines. Even the queen showed an incredible expression when she heard the news.
"Your Majesty, although Sister Su is indeed worthy of the title of concubine, she is only a noble concubine now. Concubines must be promoted step by step. Sister Su is at most a Zhaoyi. She was suddenly promoted two levels. I'm afraid it's against etiquette..."
The queen was panicked. Although her people were promoted to high positions, she was afraid that another imperial concubine would appear.
The emperor's expression was indifferent. "The virtuous concubine is worthy of the responsibility. In order to protect you and give birth to a child safely, the virtuous concubine has spared no effort and even hurt herself. Such loyalty is worthy of learning from all the concubines in the palace."
When the queen heard this, her brows relaxed. It turned out that the emperor promoted Su Tong because of her. It seemed that the emperor still valued her.
"Then I would like to thank the emperor on behalf of Sister Su." The queen agreed with a smile, and by the way, she planned to do Su Tong a favor.
The previous high-ranking concubines all showed jealous looks and were about to tear the handkerchiefs in their hands. It was really unacceptable to have a woman abandoned by the emperor climb on their heads.
After Su Tong learned that she was conferred the title of imperial concubine, she felt that her previous efforts had finally paid off. She did not plan to move forward in this life. Being the fourth imperial concubine was already eye-catching enough. If she became a noble concubine, the empress would probably eat her alive.
"You are my person, I will naturally protect you. Now you are the only high-ranking concubine, so you must be good in the future."
The queen said this with a smile, which contained both comfort and a hint of threat. Su Tong did not expose her words and agreed with a smile. The two smart people looked at each other and instantly understood each other's thoughts.
The queen may be happy that her people can climb to a high position, but she will not allow them to climb too high and get out of her control.
After becoming the virtuous concubine, Su Tong received a letter of greeting from her family. It turned out that her stepmother wanted to bring her concubine to the palace to pay her respects and congratulate her on her title of concubine.
