The Queen of the TV Series: Take turns to sit in my house this year

[Continued from Chapter 16 Noble Lady Fucha 11]

It was another New Year's Eve banquet, and Yueli once again announced her pregnancy at the banquet.

"Well, quite good, Concubine Yi, you're very good. Su Peisheng, take note. Concubine Yi will be rewarded with ten pieces of Shu brocade, two pieces of black fox fur, a hu of southern pearls, a set of gold filigree and gemstone headpieces, a set of kingfisher feather and pearl and gemstone headpieces, a pair of ivory carved crabapple-shaped palace lanterns with cloud and crane patterns, a pair of eight-treasure necklaces, a pair of pink and white flowered glass amphora, and a gilt enamel chiming clock."

"Yes." Su Peisheng smiled and bowed in response.

After thinking for a while, Fat Ju said to Yue Li, "Well, there's also the hibiscus stone coiled dragon ear cover incense burner that you asked me for the other day. I'll ask Su Peisheng to send it to your palace later."

"Yes, I thank the emperor for the reward." The money-loving Yue Li smiled so hard that her teeth were visible, but the mood of others was not so good.

"Pregnant again?"

It was Concubine Hua who said this, and the excitement was for others. Concubine Hua, who had been trying to have a child for many years but failed, looked at Yueli who was acting coquettishly and begging for favors from the emperor with loneliness and resentment, and her heart was filled with bitterness.

"This Fucha family is so lucky! Normally, she might not be able to serve the emperor for ten days or half a month, but she has only been in the palace for a short time and she is already pregnant for the second time! Why can't I be so lucky?"

Cao Qin, holding Princess Wen Yi, silently hugged her precious daughter tightly. On the one hand, she was worried that with more children in the palace, the emperor would have less love for Wen Yi. On the other hand, she was thinking about how to comfort Concubine Hua who was in a bad mood after returning.

Yixiu looked extremely happy, as if the child in Yueli's belly was her own, but in reality, she almost bit her silver teeth to pieces! Concubine Yi was pregnant, and she didn't even hear a word!

Jianqiu, who was standing beside her, was even more terrified. "Concubine Yi is already two months pregnant. Such a big thing, yet the whole Zhongcui Palace kept it a secret!"

You should know that the Queen asked her to plant more than one spies in Zhongcui Palace!

"What's going on? Are all the spies exposed? Or are they betraying us?"

Lu Yingfeng was both happy and worried. She was happy that Yueli was from the Fucha clan and was a concubine. If she could have a son, she might even have a shot at becoming the Empress Dowager in the future! She was worried about whether Concubine Yi's pregnancy would be safe and sound.

As for Zhen Huan's team, Shen Meizhuang went to see her sister Huan first, with worry in her eyes. Zhen Huan did not feel jealous at all, but was genuinely happy for Yueli and the emperor.

After all, Yue Li had no grudges against her in the past or recently, and she was not favored by the emperor. Her pregnancy would not take away her weight in the emperor's heart. When facing the suppression of Concubine Hua, the two sides could barely be considered half allies.

Of course, the most important thing is that Zhen Huan is now too favored. Not only is her favor almost equal to that of Concubine Hua, but she is also pregnant. While she has all the favor, she also has all the resentment. One can imagine the pressure she faces in the harem.

Now that Yueli is pregnant, Zhen Huan is really happy. She is happy that Yueli can help her share the firepower in the harem.

As for An Lingrong, the first thing she saw was the expressions of Fatty Ju and the Queen. She didn't know what she had guessed, so she turned her eyes to look at her good sister Zhen Huan, but found that Zhen Huan was busy "exchanging glances" with Shen Meiyu. She couldn't help feeling sad, "It turns out I'm not worthy."

After a moment of weakness, she immediately turned to observe the others. This hesitation made her realize something was wrong - eh? Where was Yu Ying'er?

At this time, the matter about Yueli's pregnancy came to an end for the time being. The queen smiled slightly, regained her confidence, and asked the emperor to appreciate the dance she had recently rehearsed, saying that she had a surprise for the emperor.

Fat Orange expressed his expectation very politely, so Yu Changzai, who had left the table at some point, changed into a light dance costume regardless of the cold weather, stepped on the small drum, and danced over, stunning everyone!

Yue Li cheered and exclaimed, "This is Zhao Feiyan's palm dance!"

Her naive look delighted Fatty Orange, making him laugh heartily and praising her endlessly, "Haha, good! The Queen is thoughtful."

"It was Yu Changzai who had the intention. I simply felt sorry for her sincerity towards the Emperor and could not bear to see her sincerity go to waste, so I gave her a chance to show it to the Emperor. She does not deserve such praise from the Emperor."

With a "swish", someone's handkerchief was torn. Concubine Hua's face darkened. She didn't know when this useless chess piece that she didn't want had climbed up to the Queen without her knowledge!

"Bitch! How dare you betray me!"

After the dance, Yu Ying'er jumped off the drum and delivered a blessing to the emperor.

"Your Majesty, your concubine Yu pays homage. May your Majesty have good fortune in spring, peace in summer, peace in autumn, happiness in winter, and everlasting joy."

Fat Ju was so happy that he got up from his seat and personally helped up the submissive Yu Ying'er.

"Ying'er, how many surprises do you have that I don't know about? Well, why are your hands so cold? Ying'er is frozen." The emperor held Yu Ying'er's cold little hand and said with heartache.

"I am not talented, I can only dance on your palms. I hope your majesty will be happy. If I can make your majesty smile, I will not feel cold."

"Well, very good. Ying'er has become quite sensible. Today is a good night for the festival, so I will promote Ying'er to be a noble lady."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Yu Ying'er's eyes were full of stars, and she knelt down to express her gratitude. "Your Majesty, I am your Majesty now! Zhen Huan, wait for me!"

No matter what the others thought, they would not be so tactless as to spoil the emperor's mood. They all smiled and congratulated him. For a moment, the banquet was filled with joy.

A trace of sadness welled up in Zhen Huan's heart. Yu Ying'er and she had a deep grudge against each other, and this time her favor was restored, it was likely to be fierce!

Seeing that Zhen Huan and Concubine Hua were unhappy, the Queen felt happy, but when she really saw the love in the Emperor's eyes for Yu Ying'er, Yixiu couldn't help but feel uncomfortable.

Only Yueli is genuinely happy about Yu Ying'er's return to favor. Yu Ying'er's entry into the game is a threat to Zhen Huan and a provocation to Concubine Hua, but it does not hinder Yueli at all.

Yueli announced her pregnancy at this time not to help Zhen Huan take the blame, but because the Queen was too mischievous, so Yueli had to find some trouble to distract her.

With Yu Ying'er here, I'm sure Concubine Hua won't let go of Yu Ying'er, who has defected to the Queen, without anyone fanning the flames. Whether the Queen can protect her against Concubine Hua depends on the abilities of Yu Ying'er and Kuang Tu. Yue Li is waiting to see...

Yueli's pregnancy and Yu Ying'er's strong return to favor made Concubine Hua Zhen Huan very confused.

To Concubine Hua, Yu Ying'er was just an annoyance, but Yue Li and the child in Zhen Huan's belly made her wary.

Yueli is now a concubine and comes from a noble family of Manchuria. If she has a son one day, won’t the son be born to her?

"No, I need to write a letter to my brother and ask him to help me!"

Having made up her mind, Nian Shilan began to plan for the position of imperial concubine after returning from the banquet, and Zhen Huan also began to push Chun'er to compete for her favor.

After all, Zhen Huan is now pregnant and cannot serve the emperor, and Shen Meiyu has a barrier with the emperor and is unwilling to serve him. Yu Ying'er can do what An Lingrong does, and Yu Ying'er is even more open than her. So when facing the resurrection of Concubine Yu, An Lingrong has no ability to resist at all.

Of course, Chun'er herself was also happy. So, after New Year's Eve, the childish Chun'er was rolled into a spring roll and carried into the Yangxin Palace. From then on, she and Zhen Huan began to compete with Concubine Hua and Yu Ying'er.

After receiving the letter from his sister, Nian Gengyao began to put pressure on the emperor. In the spring of the third year of Yongzheng's reign, Nian Gengyao repeatedly submitted petitions requesting that Concubine Hua be granted the title of noble concubine.

Fat Ju was unhappy, but because of the outstanding military achievements of the Nian family, he had to endure his slander.

Moreover, there is an old saying: If you want to destroy someone, you must first make him crazy.

So Pangju first asked the Queen to reveal the rumor that he was going to promote Hua Fei to a higher position in the harem, and then asked the Ministry of Internal Affairs to send Hua Fei the auspicious clothes of the Imperial Noble Consort to test whether she had any intention of coveting the position of Queen.
