The queen is sober in the world, and she is winning every step of the palace fight.

"Then let's have some fun with her." Fei Wan shook Zhishu's hand. "I'm afraid things aren't as simple as they seem."

Zhishu also held Feiwan's hand, her palm warm, soft and strong: "Sister, what you mean is..."

There was no one else in the hall.

Faint sunlight streamed in from the window, shining on Feiwan's neat and intricate bun, giving off a cold glow.

Fei Wan lowered her voice and told Zhishu in detail what Concubine Qing said when she came to visit that day.

The sweet-scented osmanthus flowers fall in the garden, and the sun and moon are long in the pot.

The early autumn wind blew through the lush green and thin red in the Chunxi Palace, and blew through the inner and outer palaces, layer after layer of palaces. The sky and the earth were clear, and under the sunlight, the palace was nothing but a magnificent painting, magnificent and quiet.

And who knows what treacherous undercurrents lurk beneath the surface of prosperity and nobility, or how many lives of blood, tears, sorrow, and joy are buried here. One wrong move and you could be shattered to pieces.

Walking in it, there is nothing else to think about.

The only way forward is forward.

The next few days were unusually peaceful.

With the dedicated care of the imperial doctors, Zhishu's pregnancy was finally stabilized, her bleeding stopped, and she was getting better day by day.

The Concubine Shun, who lived in the same palace, took great care of her and treated her meticulously, as if she were serving an ancestor or a bodhisattva, for which she received verbal praise from the emperor.

After hitting a wall in front of the emperor, Zheng Zhuyi became quiet and moved from Fengyi Palace to Yanming Palace, which was granted by the empress dowager. She usually refused to go out.

Xianfei temporarily stepped down as assistant harem official, secretly investigating the kitchen incident. Outwardly, she maintained a calm demeanor, pursuing the utmost refinement in her food and continued her habit of sending supplements to the emperor. Because the matter remained unresolved and the emperor remained silent, Xianfei's prestige built up, and no one in the palace dared to publicly criticize or criticize her. She found a moment of peace and quiet.

The emperor arranged for several concubines to take care of the harem. Because Concubine Qing was in poor health, Concubine Hui had a bad temper, and Concubine Kang was a little confused in her words and deeds, the burden of taking care of the inner palace actually fell on Fei Wan, a single concubine.

"Empress Zhao, the monthly allowances for each palace have been distributed. Here are the accounts for your review."

"Your Majesty, I wonder how we're going to organize the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet next month? In previous years, the Empress would have already prepared the rules well in advance."

"Your Majesty, these ladies' palaces need replacements. The Ministry of Internal Affairs has recommended candidates. Please make your decision."

"The Marquis of Changxing's Mansion, the Earl of Zhongyi's Mansion, and the Princess of Fenyang's Mansion have weddings and funerals this month. The court is distributing rewards. Will they follow the previous rules, or will they formulate a new one?"

……

Each and every matter was nothing more than the eating, drinking, defecating and urinating of the people in the palace, as well as the favors and favors within and outside the palace. They were all routine affairs, but they were as confusing as a tangled mess.

There were also some sudden events, such as this concubine was sick, that concubine had a conflict with someone, and they all needed to be dealt with in a timely manner.

Although there are dedicated people to take charge of the emperor's diet, daily life, and the empress dowager's recuperation, the inner palace must also provide adequate assistance. If one is not careful, problems will arise.

After a few days, Fei Wan was so busy that she had no time to spare.

After breakfast, they gathered at Concubine Kang's Lincui Palace and began to deal with matters. It was not until lunch time that they were able to reluctantly send away the people in charge of various matters.

And in the afternoon, I can't rest either, because there is always something to do.

"Your Majesty is finally feeling better than before. If you continue to be so busy, I'm afraid all the efforts you've made will be in vain."

Xiangyi became anxious.

That night, when helping Fei Wan take a bath, he advised her not to work so hard.

Xiao Hui also said, "Noble Concubine Qing and the others are all lazy, leaving only our Empress tired."

Fei Wan leaned against the tub, closed her eyes, and rested, enjoying Xiang Yi's massage. Hearing this, she chuckled softly, "You still care about me."

"It's no use just for us to feel sorry for her. Your Majesty also needs to take care of herself," Xiang Yi said.

Fei Wan told her not to worry, "How could I possibly tire myself out? I know what I'm doing."

After a few days of diligently managing the harem, she had already mastered the ins and outs of palace affairs. If she wanted to rise to a high position in the future, she needed to understand these things early on so that she could more easily control the situation.

When doing things, sometimes you have to take shortcuts, and sometimes you still have to work hard.

It's rare that the emperor is willing to give her this opportunity.

No matter what the emperor's purpose is, she must make good use of the opportunity and firmly grasp what she deserves.

"Then, how long will your Majesty be busy?" Xiang Yi pleaded, distressed. "If you're busy for half a month, we'll plan a half-month regimen. If you're busy for a month, we'll prepare a month's regimen. Please give me a firm answer first."

Fei Wan opened her eyes and smiled, "Then I'll use the conditioning method for a month."

"Ah? Your Majesty will be busy like this for another month?!"

"If you're not busy, can't you take care of yourself? Take good care of my daily life, especially my beauty and skincare. You must be more attentive." Fei Wan smiled and instructed, "It's only a matter of time before Concubine Zheng is favored, and Miss Yu can't always remain unknown. With a new bride coming soon, I can't let them outshine me."

She had to preserve her beautiful face and body.

As for being busy, she had figured out the palace affairs and didn't plan to continue being busy.

Doesn’t Concubine Shun really want to get involved in palace affairs? Wouldn’t it be nice to do her a favor?

The next morning, when the emperor was about to go to the morning court, Fei Wan went to Chen Qian Hall to make suggestions under the pretext of delivering tonic soup.

Xiao Yu was very surprised.

The nourishing soup Fei Wan brought was exactly the same as the one often sent from Concubine Xian's palace. After taking a sip, even the taste was the same.

"How do I learn from Concubine Xian?"

Fei Wan smiled softly, "The food in the palace of Her Majesty is delicious. I will try my best to imitate you. Doesn't Your Majesty like it?"

Xiao Yu remained silent.

He was not very interested in the supplements and food sent by the virtuous concubine.

"Then I must have used my energy in vain. However, Your Majesty must agree to my request."

"What are you asking for?" Xiao Yu was quite fond of Fei Wan's way of acting coquettishly.

Light, sweet but not greasy.

"My sister Zhishu and I both like the food in the Xianfei Palace. My sister Ying wants to go to Changle Palace to take care of her pregnancy. Please grant me permission, Your Majesty."

Xiao Yu frowned.

"What do you mean?"

"That's exactly what it means." Fei Wan explained carefully, "Since Sister Zhishu got pregnant, she's had a poor appetite and only craves the delicious food in Changle Palace. But because Concubine Shun takes such good care of her, I couldn't bear to hurt her feelings, so I moved her to another palace. Yesterday, I happened to mention to her that managing palace affairs was exhausting, and it would be great if she had someone as meticulous as Concubine Shun to help her. She then jokingly suggested that I ask Concubine Xian to bless her with a safe pregnancy, freeing up Concubine Shun to help me. Although it was a joke, I thought about it and it's feasible. I just don't know if Your Majesty will cherish me."

Xiao Yu laughed: "Are you using the banner of the Sakura Selection to slack off?"

Fei Wan restrained her expression, bowed, and earnestly pleaded, "My consort has only recently been promoted and needs further experience. If I have been negligent, it will only delay palace affairs. I beg Your Majesty to have mercy on me."

Seeing the satisfaction that flashed across the emperor's face, Fei Wan knew that he had made the right bet again.

Her advice was not just to avoid being lazy.

The emperor knew that Qing, Hui and Kang could not take responsibility, but he still let them help her manage the harem. There was no intention of testing them!

Test whether she can manage things and whether she is greedy for power!

The virtuous concubine just took too much power.

Otherwise, why would the emperor immediately suspend her assistant rights based on the still unresolved issue of Zhishu's spotting?

Accompanying you is like accompanying a tiger.

Our Majesty is always suspicious of people's hearts, so we have to be careful at every step!

"The servant from Changle Palace has not been found yet, and the matter of drugging Concubine Ying is still unclear. Do we really want her to go to Concubine Xian to nurture her pregnancy?"

I heard the emperor ask this.

Fei Wan knew that the matter was half done.

So he raised his head, smiled and asked, "Does Your Majesty think that Concubine Xian would harm Sister Ying?"

Xiao Yu narrowed his eyes: "What do you think?"

Ok?

Fei Wan thought to herself, is this even a test?
