Why do you always rush to join me after awakening?

"Hahaha, I really underestimated Jingse. But I didn't expect Langya to directly tear her face off with Ruyi this time."

When she and Yixiu had a falling out, it was only when the time was right that she took action.

It’s just that their identities were different. At that time, she was a noble concubine.

Although Ruyi is also a noble concubine, she is completely incomparable to her.

Having said that, it is not a good thing for these two to quarrel too early.

I guess there will be some fun in the palace.

"Empress Dowager, what about Concubine Xian..."

"Don't worry about it, let's just pretend we don't know."

Zhen Huan held Huihui in her arms and muttered to herself, "That cat was given to Jingse by me. Lan Yi loved cats back then, so after she left, I naturally had to have someone take good care of the cats."

As she spoke, Zhen Huan put down the water pipe in her hand, a trace of sadness appeared on her face, as if she was recalling the past.

It can be said that without Ye Lan Yi, there would be no her today.

Everyone around her left her, and now only Zhen Huan was left.

The old friend has passed away, but the living remains like this.

"Queen Mother, perhaps you could bring a child over to liven things up a bit."

Zhen Huan stroked her gray head, looked up at Fujia, and said in a deep voice, "This suggestion is not bad, but the key is that there are only a few children in the palace now, and we can't bring any of them in to raise."

There is no need to consider the children of the four concubines, let alone the imperial concubine and the queen.

Among the children of the right age, the only ones were the Fourth Prince, daughter of Concubine Jia, and the Fifth Prince, daughter of Concubine Yu.

If the baby is too young and still breastfeeding, it is useless to bring him over and you can't play with him.

The Sixth Prince is accompanied by Concubine Chun.

She cannot raise Yu's child with her.

The Fifth Prince is even less capable of this.

After all, the child was registered under Ruyi's name.

After thinking about it, I couldn't find a suitable one.

Hongli still had too few descendants.

"Queen Mother, perhaps we can find a biological mother whose family background is simple."

Zhen Huan narrowed her eyes slightly, leaning back against the soft pillow, and jokingly said, "There are only a few who come from simple family backgrounds and low positions. However, none of them have children, so I can't count on them anyway."

Fujia smiled and said, "Queen Mother, just because you don't have it now doesn't mean you won't have it in your lifetime, so you can..."

"You're right. I think there are a few people who are quite suitable."

The master and servant have been together for many years, and Fujia knows everything Zhen Huan is thinking.

So there are some things that must be initiated by Fujia before Zhen Huan will continue to speak.

Hai Lan was not present to pay her respects in the morning, but soon news of Ruyi's affairs reached her.

"Eunuch Li Yu, is the Emperor really going to condone the evil deeds of the Empress and Jingse?"

Li Yu's expression was also not good. He whispered, "Empress Yu, could you please copy the Buddha Mother Sutra as soon as possible? When you are away, our Imperial Concubine Xian will be bullied by the other concubines."

Hailan paused while copying the Buddha Mother Sutra at the table, frowned slightly, looked at Li Yu with dissatisfaction, and asked, "Sister, what are your plans this time?"

"I haven't heard of Concubine Xian's plans yet."

Hailan put down her brush, stood up, walked to the window, looked at the palace wall in the distance, and murmured, "I believe that sister is not someone who will sit still and wait for death. Sister must have a countermeasure."

"From what you've said, it seems the Emperor wants to treat everyone equally and not offend anyone. But the more he does this, the more heartbroken my sister will be."

After all, what Ruyi has always wanted is Hongli's favor, not equal treatment.

"Li Yu, please deliver a message to my sister later. I've only copied half of it, but I should be able to finish it if I stay up all night. I promise that my sister will see me tomorrow."

"Yes, I will go and inform Concubine Xian right away."

After saying that, Li Yu retreated from the Yanx Palace and walked towards the Yiku Palace.

At this time, Li Yu saw Jinzhong humming a little tune and walking towards him in the distance.

"You're in a good mood, Jinzhong. When did you even learn Kunqu Opera?"

Jinzhong's smile froze when he was called, but he immediately responded and flattered, "Master, why are you here?"

Li Yu held a whisk in his hand, narrowed his eyes, and said dangerously, "What? Do I have to report my whereabouts to you now? After being my eunuch chief for a few days, you're already getting cocky?"

I get angry whenever Jinzhong is mentioned.

With Concubine Xian and Li Yu manipulating things behind the scenes, he had a miserable half month!

After Li Yu was reinstated, he still did not forget to mock him, hoping to make fun of him.

He just asked a very common question, but Li Yu still found fault with it. He must have lived a comfortable life for too long and forgot that he was also a slave!

"How can I, Master? I can rest now. I didn't expect that being the chief eunuch is so difficult. It's almost exhausting. This position must be held by you, Master. I will never dare to dream of that position in my lifetime."

Jinzhong's words pleased Li Yu.

Li Yu changed his expression and said calmly, "Jinzhong, you are smart. As for me, your master, I will retire from that position sooner or later, so you just have to work hard. Do you understand?"

If Jinzhong believed these semi-cryptic words, he would be a fool.

But I still have to pretend to be extremely happy on the surface.

"Master, I will definitely do my best!"

After saying this, Jinzhong even took out a few pieces of silver to honor Li Yu.

Li Yu didn't even glance at it, he just took it and put it in his pocket, then patted Jinzhong on the shoulder and said comfortingly, "Jinbao is not as good as you in this respect. After all, I am your master and I can't harm you. Do you know who has the best future to follow? Just look at me, the master, and you will know, so don't run around if you have nothing to do."

After saying that, Li Yu flicked his whisk and left.

Look, he is such a considerate master, and he doesn't forget to give his apprentice some advice.

Jinzhong looked at the place where Li Yu had just tapped with disdain, stretched out his hand and gently brushed it a few times, muttering softly, "Stupid and unaware, this is really the kind of person you are talking about."

Let him follow Concubine Xian?

It would be better to take his life.

Besides, would Li Yu be so kind as to let me follow him?

There is only one position of Grand Steward. Ruyi has already supported Li Yu to take the position, so it is impossible for the other party to cultivate a competitor.

After all the scheming, it is said that women are the most scheming, but I am afraid that men are the most scheming.

It should really be changed to "The Most Vicious Man's Heart" in the future.

Fortunately, Li Yu did not affect his mood and he continued to hum a little tune as he walked towards Yongshou Palace.

"When did you learn Kunqu Opera? Of course, my Wanwan taught me. Is there any need to ask?"

It is the best time to learn Kunqu Opera when it is late at night and everyone is asleep.

Even the emperor doesn't have the conditions to learn.
