After a broken heart, I traveled through time and space and became an abandoned concubine. My fate i

After Concubine He Shu returned to her chambers, her rage surged like a tsunami, instantly consuming her sanity. Her eyes widened, her face livid, her features contorted in rage. Her heart was swirling like a raging sea, filled with resentment and hatred for Concubine Su. "I, Concubine He Shu, once held such splendour in this palace, yet Concubine Su dared to humiliate me like this!" She recalled past clashes with Concubine Su, each one a source of humiliation. "Concubine Su, I will not stand with you!" she roared at the top of her lungs, her frenzied demeanor like a demon from hell, terrifying the maids around her, trembling and refusing to breathe. She suddenly grabbed a nearby vase and, with all her might, smashed it to the ground, sending shattered pieces flying everywhere. "Hurry up and send a letter to my father and brother. If you can't do this, I will take your life! I want them to avenge me and make Su Mengqi live a life worse than death!" Her sharp voice was like a sharp blade, breaking the silence of the bedroom.

The palace maid tremblingly agreed and went to arrange the delivery of the letter, crawling and rolling, as if there was a vicious tiger chasing her from behind.

The Minister of Rites was sitting in his study, deep in thought, when he received his daughter's plea for help. He unfolded the letter, glanced briefly, and suddenly, startled, abruptly leaped to his feet, beads of sweat dripping down his forehead. He was torn between heartache and anger at his daughter's humiliation in the palace, and fear for his family's honor and his own career. "Although the He family holds some power today, acting rashly amidst this harem conflict could only bring disaster upon the family." His brow furrowed as he paced back and forth in his study, his steps ragged and hurried, as if each step were treading on sharp blades. His wife came rushing over upon hearing the noise, and was also worried when she saw the situation: "Master, what should we do? Concubine Shu has suffered such a great injustice in the palace, we can't just ignore it." The Minister of Rites sighed: "Resolve? How to resolve it? If there is a slight mistake, the whole family will be doomed." But thinking of his daughter's former obedience and the glory of the family, he couldn't help but hesitate.

Far away at the border, General He received news of his sister's humiliation in the palace. His hair stood on end, his eyes ablaze with rage. "Concubine Su, you slut, how dare you bully my sister like this!" He overturned the table in front of him, sending the documents scattering to the floor. His roar echoed throughout the camp, silencing his officers and men. Fury and anxiety filled him, and he longed to fly back to the capital. "Organize your troops immediately! I must return to seek justice for my sister!" However, his lieutenant stepped forward to dissuade him, "General, this matter requires further consideration. If we return rashly, we might give ulterior motives to those with ulterior motives." General He glared at his lieutenant, "How can I sit idly by while my sister suffers this humiliation?" But a flicker of hesitation loomed.

The Empress soon learned of Concubine He's actions. In her palace chamber, she reclined on a couch, her gaze deep and pensive. The chamber was lavishly furnished, with a bed of golden nanmu and a quilt embroidered with phoenixes, all highlighting her noble status. "If Concubine He joins forces with the He family, it will surely unleash a bloody storm in the harem. But perhaps, this is also the perfect opportunity for me to eliminate the He family and consolidate my own position. If successful, I can win over Concubine Su to my side; if not, it will be Concubine Su's own fault, and has nothing to do with me." She gently stroked the silk handkerchief in her hand, a subtle sneer playing at the corner of her mouth.

In the imperial garden, the queen met Concubine Su by chance.

The Queen wore a seemingly concerned smile, but her eyes held a sharp edge. "Sister Su, things are not going smoothly in the harem lately. You must be careful. The He family behind Concubine He Shu is not easy to deal with. There are many hidden dangers here, so don't get dragged into it."

Concubine Su bowed slightly, her expression respectful yet calm. "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your advice. I will handle this with caution. However, matters concerning the harem are so complex that even a single move can affect the entire harem. I hope Your Majesty will take care of us."

The queen nodded slightly, her gaze lingering on Concubine Su for a moment: "I'm glad you understand, sister. Don't let my kindness go to waste." After that, she turned and left. Her posture seemed elegant, but with a bit of elusive meaning.

After returning to her chambers, Concubine Su sat at her dressing table, silent for a long moment. She gazed at herself in the mirror, her eyes filled with contemplation and worry. "The He family is incredibly powerful. We can't just fight them head-on. We need a foolproof plan." She bit her lip softly, her mind racing with various strategies.

On this day, Concubine Su dressed up in a gorgeous palace dress and prepared to meet the emperor. On the way, she keenly noticed that Concubine He Shu was following her secretly.

Upon seeing the Emperor, Imperial Concubine Su's face immediately blossomed with a flower-like smile. She presented the soothing and refreshing tea she had personally prepared with both hands, her voice as gentle as flowing water: "Your Majesty is very busy with state affairs. I specially prepared this tea for you, hoping it will relieve some of your fatigue. I am willing to serve Your Majesty wholeheartedly."

The emperor accepted it with pleasure, a hint of relief showing on his tired face: "My beloved concubine is thoughtful."

Imperial Concubine Su took the opportunity to say in a gentle voice, "Your Majesty, this imperial garden is filled with a profusion of flowers. I will walk with you to help you relax."

The emperor nodded in agreement, and the two walked side by side.

At this moment, Concubine Su pretended to twist her ankle while walking and cried out, "Ouch!" The emperor was quick to act and took her into his arms to support her. The two of them embraced, and the emperor's eyes were full of pity: "My beloved concubine, be careful."

Concubine Su looked defiantly toward Concubine He's hiding place, her lips curled up, her eyes filled with smugness. Seeing this, Concubine He trembled with rage, her hands clenched tightly into fists, her nails digging deep into her palms, yet she dared not utter a word. She glared fiercely at Concubine Su and turned back to the palace. All the way, she cursed non-stop, "Su Mengqi, you slut! I'll tear you to pieces!"

After returning to the palace, Concubine He Shu was like a mad beast. She smashed everything in the bedroom and kept cursing, "Su Mengqi, you bitch, I will tear you into pieces!"

When the other concubines in the palace heard about this, they too harbored ulterior motives. Some gathered together and whispered, "Noble Concubine Su is so favored right now. If we could cling to her, our future in the palace would be much easier." Others enviously said, "Hmph, let's see how long she can hold on. The He family is not to be trifled with."

Concubine Zhou was in the prison, her face haggard and her hair disheveled. She stared blankly at a corner of her cell, filled with regret and self-blame: "It's all my fault for being so foolish that I'm now in such a miserable state."

Concubine He Shu kept cursing and resenting Concubine Su in her own palace. Her resentful eyes seemed to be able to penetrate the wall and reach Concubine Su's bedroom.
