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

Concubine Wu asked tentatively, "Sister, do you mean... that you want to mention me in front of His Majesty?"

Fei Wan smiled and said, "Speaking of my sister, it's better to say that my sister herself has been favored by His Majesty."

"Ah?..." Concubine Wu felt that she was excited for nothing. Did she misunderstand? Could it be that Concubine Zhao was not going to help her sleep with the emperor?

Her face was dejected. "Are you making fun of me, little sister? I'm already old, a year and a half older than Your Majesty. How could I possibly be favored by Your Majesty?"

Back then in the Qiandi Palace, the reason she was able to become a concubine was simply because several talented and beautiful maids in front of her secretly fought with each other, and all of them suffered losses. In the end, she benefited from it, even though she had no hope of being favored.

The emperor did not value her. For several years after he ascended the throne, the number of times she slept with him could be counted on one hand.

When was the last time?

Two years ago.

Now she doesn't even know whether the emperor's waist is thick or thin.

Fei Wan said, "Sister is a little older, but she looks like a young girl, not older. If she dresses up a little, she'll still be very attractive."

Fei Wan brought Concubine Wu back to her room, removed her original makeup, and personally took Xiaohui to put makeup on her.

After a moment, Concubine Wu looked in the mirror.

I was surprised myself: "Why am I so good-looking!"

Fei Wan smiled.

If her finger hadn't been injured, she could have made Concubine Wu look even better. But now she couldn't do many delicate movements, so Xiaohui had to do them for her, which affected the makeup effect.

"Sister, do you have any talents?" She was seriously planning for Concubine Wu.

Concubine Wu performed well in Changle Palace today. If she did as she said, she would also reward Concubine Wu.

Concubine Wu shook her head: "I have no talent."

"Song and dance?"

"will not."

"embroidery?"

"It's not good enough."

"Play the piano, the flute, or some other instrument?"

"Know nothing."

“Calligraphy and painting?”

"I haven't practiced."

Fei Wan thought about it, but couldn't think of any skills that could attract men, so she asked Concubine Wu: "Sister, do you really not know anything?"

Concubine Wu blushed, "There is one thing... His Majesty once praised me for doing a good job."

"what?"

"Build a snowman."

Fei Wan looked at the bright and dazzling summer sunlight outside and felt that the skill of making snowmen was not worthwhile.

"Then Sister, go back and think about it. If you really can't come up with any skills, that's fine. You just won't be able to impress His Majesty. Anyway, I guarantee that you can go to Chen Qian Palace."

Concubine Wu was skeptical and felt that there was little hope for her to go.

Fei Wan herself had just been favored by the emperor, so how could she have the ability to recommend her?

But she was very grateful that Fei Wan was willing to help her.

So he said goodbye and left with many thanks.

Fei Wan lay back on the bed to rest, feeling very tired.

Dealing with Changle Palace is both physically and mentally tiring.

However, today the virtuous concubine has passed the test.

Concubine Wu suspected the Queen, but she pretended to listen to her, which made Concubine Xian happy to see a bigger rift between her and the Queen. At least she would not target her in the short term.

Maybe he'll even take advantage of her.

Then, in the next few days, I will continue to pay visits to high-ranking concubines such as Concubine Qing and Concubine Hui, and under the pretext of a newcomer meeting the mistress, carefully gauge everyone's thoughts and positions.

It will be convenient for future actions.

While thinking about this, I accidentally fell asleep in a daze.

I don’t know how long it was before I suddenly felt my nose itchy.

She rubbed her nose gently, turned over in a half-asleep state, and felt her neck itchy again.

She finally woke up and when she opened her eyes, she was startled by the handsome face with a smile in front of her.

"His Majesty?!"

She hurriedly stood up and went to see the emperor. "Your Majesty, I wish you all the best! When did you arrive? Why didn't anyone tell you? You've seen me sleep so ugly!"

Xiao Yu set his eyes on Fei Wan's half-open collar.

She slept with her clothes loose, her shoulders, neck, and collarbone exposed, and her chest was vaguely visible.

"How is it considered ugly?"

The man smiled gently, reached out and helped her close her collar.

His slender fingers gently caressed the girl's delicate skin.

Fei Wan's face flushed red.

"His Majesty……"

"Zhao Qing."

Xiao Yu pulled Fei Wan into his arms.

Fei Wan hugged his neck and whispered softly in his ear: "Your Majesty is so... bad!"

"So, do you like me being bad?"

Xiao Yu's big hand slid down and grasped her slender waist.

"Whether Your Majesty is good or bad, I like you." Fei Wan said softly.

Xiao Yu smiled.

"How dare you think I can still be bad?"

"Your Majesty is so bad that you always come to disturb my rest."

Fei Wan tentatively said something bold.

Seeing that Xiao Yu's expression looked even better, I realized that he liked this tone.

So he put on a stern face, snorted, turned away and pretended to be angry.

Xiao Yu raised his eyebrows.

Zhaoqing is indeed wonderful.

He discussed matters with two court officials and had a headache.

The first place that comes to mind for relaxation is Guanlanyuan.

I didn't tell anyone. As soon as I entered the room and saw Fei Wan sleeping gracefully, my headache was half relieved.

Now I have a beautiful woman in my arms and my other half is also well.

"Then Your Majesty, is it good or bad that you like me?" Fei Wan asked in a low voice with her face turned away.

Xiao Yu smiled and said, "Zhao Qing is very good. I like her. I like everything about her."

"Is Sister Zhishu a good or bad person in Your Majesty's eyes?"

She turned around and asked seriously.

Xiao Yu laughed: "Jealous?"

"I dare not," Fei Wan said, "but Your Majesty favors her, which is a good thing. But she hasn't come to see me until now. On the contrary, she is not as close to me as before. I wonder if the position Your Majesty gave her is too low, far inferior to mine, so she is embarrassed to come."

"Your Majesty, please give her a promotion, almost as high as a concubine, okay?"

Xiao Yu raised his eyebrows again.

He praised Zhishu, a maid in the cold palace, and thought Feiwan would feel uncomfortable knowing Zhishu.

Most women in the palace are like this.

But I didn't expect Fei Wan to ask for a higher position for Zhishu.

"You really think so?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, I like to see my good friends happy."

"You can't advance your rank at will. Let's wait until there's an opportunity." Xiao Yu refused.

He thought Zhishu was good, and after having sex with her, he made her an eighth-rank concubine, which was already an exception. Ordinary palace maids who wanted to become concubines had to start from the ninth rank.

As for Fei Wan, she is not included in this list. Her situation is unusual.

"Then Your Majesty, can you give her a title?" Fei Wan took advantage of the emperor's good mood and made a casual request.

Xiao Yu narrowed his eyes: "You want to flatter her like this?"

Although Fei Wan's position is low and it is impossible for her to form cliques like Concubine Xian and others, it would be wrong for her to have such thoughts.

He hated it most when his subordinates formed factions and ganged up on those who were different from him.

The hand on Feiwan's waist couldn't help but loosen.
