The imperial concubine is charming and charming, and only seeks power and wealth

Chapter 27 His Majesty the Emperor: Don’t Want Others

Such honor and favor was too great, almost like soaring to the sky, and the moment Jiang Lingyue got the news, she couldn't even think of being happy.

The eighth-rank Baolin jumped several levels and was promoted to the fifth rank. Although it was also eye-catching, the fifth rank was nothing in the harem.

Jieyu is different, she is the legitimate mistress of a palace.

If she had been a third-rank imperial concubine yesterday, she would not have had to stand in the scorching sun for a long time in Shaoguang Palace, nor would she have had to kneel down and salute Concubine Hui.

In Qi Junyi's harem, there are only five concubines above the third rank. Apart from the three concubines, there are only two others, Sun Guipin and Chen Shuyi.

They are all old people who have served since the Eastern Palace.

How long has she been in the palace?

Just because she knelt down to pay respect to Concubine Hui yesterday, that person gave her a higher rank?

In her previous life, she was still a talented woman. She had been in the palace for two years before she was named Jieyushi because of a miscarriage. But even so, she was already the only one favored in the harem, which led to countless frames.

The past events were vivid in her mind. For a moment, Jiang Lingyue didn't know whether Qi Junyi's compensation out of guilt was a blessing or a curse for her.

She was able to avoid all other frame-ups, except the poison in her body. Until her death, no one found out who was behind it.

Or maybe the emperor didn't want to tell her.

Because the person who attacked her was favored by him.

Jiang Lingyue was aware of this.

It should be said that after Jiang Lingxin entered the palace, she gradually woke up from the emperor's countless exceptions and favoritism.

She was not as important in the emperor's heart as she thought, let alone special.

In fact, the fact that Jiang Lingxin entered the palace as a concubine seemed to be deliberately concealed from her. Jiang Lingyue was the last one among all the concubines to know about it.

At that time, she was weak and had no power in the palace. She only knew that there was a new favorite concubine in the palace, and the other party seemed to be in poor health. The imperial physicians who used to take care of her in the Imperial Medical Bureau no longer came frequently. Even the miracle doctor that Qi Junyi specially posted an imperial edict to find to detoxify her was often nowhere to be seen.

Until one day, the weather was unusually good, so good that Jiang Lingyue felt like going to the Imperial Garden to enjoy the scenery.

In the plum garden, she overheard the conversation between two palace maids and realized that the new favorite concubine was actually her biological sister.

She was a third-rank official since she entered the palace, and lived alone in Qixiang Palace. However, her body was also weak, and the emperor had given her countless rare medicinal herbs as a reward for her palace.

As for the miracle doctor invited for her, he naturally needed to divert his attention to take care of the new favorite concubine.

The Jiang sisters were the most favored in the harem, and their bodies were both as delicate as willows. The two palace maids covered their lips and whispered to each other, jokingly saying that His Majesty might like weak women. All the concubines in the palace also rushed to act like weak willows.

In ancient times, the King of Chu loved thin waists, and many of his concubines starved to death. Now...

Jiang Lingyue didn't listen to what was said afterwards.

She returned to the palace in a daze, as if she had lost her soul.

At that time, she didn't know that the preferential treatment she received was all due to the red mole at the corner of her eye. She was dazzled by the love and favor, and her temper became a little outrageous. She always felt that she was different, and even felt resentment towards the emperor, asking him why he wanted to marry her sister.

What was his reaction?

Probably no one had ever dared to speak to him in such a questioning tone. Jiang Lingyue still remembered that the emperor's face was as cold as ice, and he rarely lost his usual gentle and good-tempered demeanor.

His lowered eyes were filled with coldness, as if he were looking at an unruly child. He spoke in a tone that was neither mocking nor mocking, "Although you two sisters are not from the same mother, you do look quite similar. When I see her, it's like seeing you a few years ago."

Perhaps because he saw her face turn pale in an instant, he did not continue to say the rest of the words, but Jiang Lingyue understood it herself.

She had been ill for a long time, and her face was inevitably haggard. She had been in the palace for several years and had seen enough of the most beautiful flowers. How could they compare to a girl of sixteen or seventeen?

At this point, Jiang Lingyue began to understand that she was no different from the other women in the harem.

After learning the truth, Jiang Lingyue realized exactly who she was.

From then on, she began to observe the duties of a concubine, cutting off those foolish loves bit by bit, and would never again ask the emperor about things he was unwilling to tell her without knowing the limits.

The emperor did not tell her who was the mastermind behind the poisoning, so she could only guess and could not make a conclusion.

There are only a few people who can make the emperor feel partial to them.

In her previous life, the other party was able to poison her without anyone knowing. Can she avoid it in this life?

Jiang Lingyue frowned slightly. She didn't even know how she was poisoned, so how could she prevent it?

Fortunately, she has sorted out Ning'an Palace inside and out several times in the past few days. It is not as airtight as an iron barrel, but at least no one can get in. The staff in the small kitchen are all monitored by Jinshu personally, so the things at the entrance are safe.

Besides, that person was also reborn. Judging from his words and actions these days, it seemed that he really felt deeply guilty towards her.

Maybe... he would secretly protect her and prevent her from being harmed by others?

The moment this thought came to mind, Jiang Lingyue shook her head repeatedly to reject it.

It was good that the emperor was willing to protect her, but she could no longer pin all her hopes on the protection of others.

It's enough to be stupid once.

…………

As Jiang Lingyue had expected, the news of her promotion to Jieyu quickly spread throughout the six palaces.

The addition of a high-ranking queen, who was promoted in such a short period of time, naturally caused a huge stir.

In particular, many people calculated that since this concubine came to serve the emperor, the emperor had not visited anyone else for a full half month. Even when she had her period, she had never gone anywhere else.

Even the pregnant Concubine Zhao didn't even look favorably upon him.

It is said that Concubine Zhao is pregnant with the emperor's first child, but now she is still a sixth-rank beauty.

After this comparison, many concubines in the palace could no longer sit still.

That afternoon, Ning'an Palace was packed with people who came to congratulate.

This time, except for Chen Shuyi, the other four main ladies came in person to offer congratulations.

Including Concubine Hui, who had criticized Jiang Lingyue in a condescending manner yesterday.

When they met again, their status was no longer different, but there was no sign of change on Concubine Hui's face. She looked virtuous and generous, shook Jiang Lingyue's hand, and congratulated her with a smile.

As the saying goes, one should not hit a smiling person. Jiang Lingyue naturally welcomed the person in politely and asked him to take a seat of honor.

After only a few days, Ning'an Palace had changed drastically.

The main hall is filled with exquisite and gorgeous ornaments, and the crystal clear white porcelain jade vases used for casually arranging flowers on the tables are all crystal clear.

The teacups served to the guests were a set of jasper, and even the tea used to entertain them was Yunshan Maojian, a tea specially supplied to the emperor.

She has really transformed from a country chicken into a phoenix, and no longer looks as shabby as she did that day.
