Quick Wear: Crazy Female Supporting Role She is Bai Yueguang

Chapter 11 The Poor Little One in the Palace Fighting Novel (11)

However, the Shi family had never protected her and her biological mother. It was useless to keep such a family. She only needed an opportunity to make the Shi family regret having made the wrong bet.

"You know what mother said."

Mrs. Shi's originally tense heart suddenly relaxed. It seemed that Shi Qing was just making fun of Qiao on purpose.

"This is your favorite taro and yam cake. Mother made it especially for you. Qingqing, although your mother is gone, I have always treated you as my own daughter. I only hope that you sisters will take care of each other."

Madam Shi naturally would not rush to curry favor with Shi Qing, but she needed Shi Qing to win her favor. If Shi Qing got pregnant in the future, she would kill the mother and take the child away when it was born.

This was the original plan, and there was no thought of sparing Shi Qing's life. In Madam Shi's view, it was a great honor for a child born by a concubine to be favored by the emperor.

Madam Shi did not stay in the palace for long. She hinted to Shi Qing that he should assist Concubine Yun well, which would be good for both her and Concubine Yun.

Shi Qing only used a small effort to achieve a great result and did not agree to the matter.

Madam Shi thought that Shi Qing was afraid of her, and sneered in her heart. He was really a person who was not worthy of being on the stage. He could only be used by others. Did he really think he was a big shot?

After Madam Shi left, Shi Qing ordered people to replace all the things in the side hall, as if Madam Shi was some dirty thing.

This matter was also secretly told to Emperor Yong'an by the secret guards in Changle Palace. When he learned about Shi Qing's almost rude behavior, he did not blame him.

He just said in a deep voice, "If anyone from the Shi family wants to see Shuyi again in the future, I will not see them."

The secret guard nodded respectfully, "Yes, Your Majesty."

After the secret guard left, Pei Xingzhou remembered Shi Qing's favorite Zhen cake and osmanthus cake, so he asked the people in the imperial kitchen to prepare them in advance.

The court had been busy with government affairs these past two days, and Pei Xingzhou had been staying in the Yangxin Palace most of the time. Although his headache had improved a lot, he still had trouble sleeping without the fragrance by his side.

It was also time to visit Shuyi. Although there were many beauties in the harem, this was the first one who made him so worried.

Or maybe, Shi Qing is his medicine.

Outside the hall, Xiao Xuanzi's voice was heard, a little hurried.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Wan requested an audience. She said she had made soup for Your Majesty."

Pei Xingzhou had a headache. He had forgotten that Concubine Wan had been released from house arrest.

"Let her in."

Last time, Concubine Wan secretly gave Shi Huanyun a sterilizing drug, and Pei Xingzhou confined Concubine Wan for half a year, which allowed the people of the Shi family to calm down their anger.

However, Shi Huanyun's health was not good and she could not get pregnant in a short period of time.

Concubine Wan was wearing the newly made Shu brocade some time ago, and her graceful appearance was worthy of the title.

Concubine Wan is the only concubine in the palace who can be on equal footing with Shi Huanyun, and the two of them do not get along with each other on a daily basis.

"I have met the emperor."

Concubine Wan bowed respectfully, placed the prepared ginseng soup in front of Pei Xingzhou, and said to the emperor in a coquettish tone.

"Your Majesty hasn't seen me for a long time. Could it be that he only has his mind on his new sister? I heard that your Majesty loves the newly appointed Shuyi very much."

Pei Xingzhou put down the official business in his hands, dismissed his attendants, looked at Concubine Wan with deep eyes, and raised his eyebrows.

"Alright, everyone, please leave. Stop being a concubine and report anything you have to say."

Concubine Wan put away her smile, looked around vigilantly, and then spoke slowly.

"Your Majesty's guess is correct. The Empress Dowager does have connections with the Xue family."

Pei Xingzhou's face suddenly darkened. The affair between the Queen Mother and Xue Ying, the eldest son of the Xue family, had caused a lot of controversy, and it almost made the late emperor question Pei Xingzhou's background.

It was this incident that caused Emperor Yong'an to quickly suppress the Xue family after he came to power.

"The Queen Mother is truly infatuated. After all these years, she still has a man from the Xue family in her heart. Haha, she has forgotten her own identity after all."

Concubine Wan was feeling a little nervous. Pei Xingzhou's words probably meant someone was about to have bad luck.

"How does the Emperor intend to deal with this matter?"

Pei Xingzhou is not a person who sits and waits for death, especially when it comes to the rumors in the court. Even if the empress dowager can't stand the loneliness, having a lover in the harem is much better than having dealings with the Xue family.

"Next month, it's the Empress Dowager's birthday. We need to make a big deal about it and invite people from the imperial court to attend the banquet. Be sure to include people from the Xue and Shi families."

It seems that Yun Fei, this chess piece, can no longer be kept.

She thought she was hiding her true abilities, but she didn't know that when Concubine Yun and Prince Yun were secretly dealing with each other, Concubine Wan's people had already set their sights on this pair of adults and adults, and it was time to back off.

Concubine Wan curled her lips, feeling quite good. Her feud with Concubine Yun hadn't lasted more than a day or two.

Now, I finally have the chance.

"Yes, I will certainly hold a grand banquet, but Your Majesty, how do you plan to arrange Shi Shuyi's stay?"

Pei Xingzhou seemed to be lost in thought, and it was hard to understand the emperor's emotions.

But Concubine Wan knew in her heart that Shi Shuyi was not being used by Pei Xingzhou, and perhaps there was some true love between them.

She rarely saw Pei Xingzhou so gentle. It seemed that the little girl from the Shi family still pleased Pei Xingzhou.

"When she gives birth to a prince, I will give her the most honorable status in the harem, but I cannot decide other matters."

Half a month ago, the imperial physician Zhang Xuan took his pulse and found out that he had been poisoned for many years and was almost terminally ill. The tonics that the empress dowager had sent him day after day had almost depleted Pei Xingzhou's body.

Even if Zhang Xuan and the people from the Imperial Hospital used all their medical skills, they could only help Pei Xingzhou live eight more years.

Eight years is enough.

"I am quite curious about this young lady. I wonder if I could visit her?"

Pei Xingzhou knew that Concubine Wan had no ill intentions. In the harem, she was just a pair of eyes to him. She was arrogant and domineering, but it was also the power given to her by Pei Xingzhou.

"Just follow your heart."

It was also at this time that a palace maid from Shou'an Palace came to deliver medicine. She was a first-class palace maid in the Empress Dowager's Palace, and she had been delivering medicine to the emperor in recent years.

"This servant greets Concubine Wan and His Majesty."

Pei Xingzhou nodded slightly, "Well, put the medicine down and thank the Queen Mother for me."

Chunxi looked uneasy, and she was indeed frightened. She knew very well what the medicine sent by the empress dowager was. That was why she felt very guilty towards the emperor over the years.

Chunxi knelt down and kowtowed, "Yes, I understand."

Pei Xingzhou drank the black medicine in one gulp without blinking.

Chunxi breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the empty bowl, then bowed and left.

After Chunxi left the Yangxin Palace, Pei Xingzhou pressed the acupoints and spit out the medicine directly, then took out a handkerchief and wiped the corners of his mouth.

The whole process was as smooth as flowing water, but it made Concubine Wan frown.

"Your Majesty knows it's poisonous, so why bother putting on a show? The Queen Mother's power is too great, and it's inevitable that she'll have other ideas in her mind, and even more so that mediocre people will want to replace her. But the country is ruled by the Emperor, and there's no one in the world more qualified for this position than the Emperor."
