Jinwei joins hands in rebirth: villains can also eat at the table

Yan Wan did not lie about the origin of this velvet flower. She asked the Empress Fucha for it before she left the palace.

She just said that she was not feeling well and asked for a velvet flower from the Queen Mother, saying that it was imbued with the Queen Mother's blessings and might help her get better.

Since Yan Wan had been attending to the emperor's illness, she had taken care of everything herself, and the empress had seen her dedication. So when she spoke, the empress did not suspect anything and not only gave her the Buddha's hand velvet flower she always wore, but also gave her the twenty-four-flower velvet flower she had just acquired.

Yanwan knew that Princess Hejing was very vigilant, so she asked for this velvet flower early in preparation.

Empress Fucha left many good things for the princess, but none of the expensive items could compare to the small velvet flower she wore on her head every day.

I'm afraid this velvet flower will accompany He Jing for the rest of his life.

He Jing, please don't let me down in this life. You must be my sword.

With a look of triumph on her face, Yan Wan returned to Yongshou Palace in high spirits.

Since then, Yan Wan would often meet Princess Hejing here, and the two would pray for the queen together. Because of this relationship, the two became much closer.

In Hejing's eyes, Yanwan, as a concubine, followed the rules and regulations and always remembered the teachings of Empress Fucha. Unlike other women who only cared about seducing the emperor, she kept to her duties as a concubine and was really a bit like Empress Fucha.

In addition, Yan Wan kept saying that she remembered Empress Fucha's teachings and acted obedient, so He Jing became closer to her for a while.

The two were of similar age. In order to help Hejing get over it as soon as possible, Yanwan often comforted Hejing in the name of commemorating Empress Fucha. In just a few months, the two became good friends.

He Jing was only sixteen or seventeen years old, and not as scheming as he was in his previous life, so he was actually easier to get along with than he was then.

However, as a legitimate princess, she has been arrogant since childhood. She has to be praised all the time and is very difficult to get along with.

At this time, Ruyi was at the peak of her power, Concubine Chun was seriously ill, and Concubine Jia was pregnant, so the responsibility of managing the affairs of the harem fell into her hands.

In July of the same year, the emperor bestowed titles on his concubines.

Ulanara Ruyi was promoted to Imperial Noble Consort, the same rank as a Vice Empress, and was in charge of the six palaces; Jin Yuyan was promoted to Noble Consort Jia, assisting in the management of the six palaces. Yihuan was given the title of Shufei, Yanwan the title of Lingfei, Qing Changzai the title of Noble Lady, and Wan Changzai the title of Noble Lady Wan...

Regarding Yan Wan's promotion to Consort, firstly, she had been by Princess Hejing's side for the past six months, and the princess often spoke well of her in front of the emperor. Since she was about to marry in March of the following year, the emperor promoted Yan Wan to the rank of Consort as a token of his affection for her. Secondly, under Empress Fucha's guidance, Yan Wan had become more respectful and gentle, endearing her to the emperor. Thirdly, the emperor appreciated her dedicated care for Empress Fucha after the death of the Seventh Prince.

Yan Wan never expected that her attempt to please Empress Fucha would bring her so much benefit.

Every time the emperor thought of Empress Fucha, he would ask someone to find Yanwan, and the two of them would reminisce about the past when she was alive.

This person's personality is so pretentious. He doesn't cherish people when they are around, but starts to miss them as soon as they leave.

I don't care when I'm alive, but I have all kinds of feelings when I'm dead. It's disgusting, really disgusting.

From this we can see that people's hearts are fickle. Never try to make others regret by punishing yourself. Love yourself first before loving others. If you don't even care about yourself, don't expect others to care about you.

Because Ling Yunche saved Empress Fucha, he was promoted from the lowest-ranking guard in front of the emperor to the third-rank, and for a time became the most promising guard in front of the emperor.

In March of the following year, Princess Hejing was about to marry into Mongolia. In the past year, Yanwan had accompanied her through the pain of losing her mother. Although she was proud, her friendship with Yanwan gradually deepened.

Even though the two were separated, they still kept in touch.

Before leaving, the princess specifically asked Yanwan to find out the truth about Empress Fucha's death. She did not believe that Empress Fucha's death was an accident.

Yanwan was eager to hear her request and agreed immediately.

She kept saying that she was there to help Empress Fucha. If there was any clue, she would do her best to find out the truth and let her get married with peace of mind.

Regarding the death of Empress Fucha, Yan Wan is not in a hurry yet. The most important thing now is to put the matter of Prince Yu being reprimanded for divorcing his wife in front of Jin Yuyan.

Master Anji is about to enter the palace, and I believe Jin Yuyan will not be honest.

As soon as Princess Hejing left, the harem became much quieter.

Yan Wan also began to seek opportunities, preparing to step on Concubine Jia in one fell swoop. No, now she should be called Concubine Jia, so that she will never be able to stand up.

The weather in the Forbidden City was clear and crisp in July. Although there were waves of heat, the lotus flowers in the imperial garden were in bloom. Yan Wan had a rare interest in going out of the Yongshou Palace to enjoy the flowers.

Yanwan sat quietly under the pavilion, admiring the lotus flowers in the sunset. Chunchan and Lancui were waiting by the side, fanning her with long fans.

Before me lay the landscaped lotus of the Imperial Garden, a small pond that stretched to the edge in seven or eight steps. The petals swayed, their fragrance wafting in the air, while small golden carp swam beneath.

The setting sun shines on the green lotus, and the breeze moves the delicate stamens.

"Master, what's so good about these lotus flowers? They are not as good as the lotus flowers in the Old Summer Palace."

Lan Cui was very surprised. There was no lake in the Imperial Garden. In the summer, it was an artificial landscape in the greenhouse. The lotus flowers were confined in a small pond. What was so beautiful about it?

If she were to say, it's not even as good as the pond at the village entrance when she was a child.

"The lotus blossoms resemble the beauty's palace makeup, the lotus leaves sway in the wind like green skirts. Don't you think this flower is just like a human? It's just that it is confined to the pond, while we are confined to the palace..."

There was a hint of melancholy in Yanwan's words as she gently waved her round fan, causing the tassels hanging from her hair to sway gently.

Today she wore a green mountain-colored cheongsam, a light summer garment made of the finest Yuehua brocade, embroidered with elegant jasmine patterns. She also wore a jasmine velvet flower in her hair as an embellishment. As she walked, sat, or lay down, her sleeves fluttered in the breeze, showcasing her graceful demeanor.

She is already very beautiful, and now she is in the prime of her youth. She does not need any luxurious jewelry to complement herself. She is very beautiful with just some ordinary decorations.

"Sister Ling Fei, you are so elegant and refined. I didn't expect to see you here at this time."

Shu Fei slowly walked out from the other side of the pavilion. The days in the palace were long and lonely. She wanted to come out to kill time, but she happened to meet Ling Fei.

She was dressed in an ivory-white Manchu dress, with her hair adorned only with a gold-threaded jade hairpin, from which hung a light blue palace-style tassel, which swayed with her movements and sparkled in the setting sun as she walked.

She just thought that Concubine Ling was a palace maid, unlettered and uninterested in these leisurely pursuits. She didn't expect that after a few years, she had changed so much.

The two of them didn't have much interaction, and she suddenly became curious about Yan Wan.

Yan Wan quickly stood up to greet them. As both of them were concubines, they only needed to exchange simple greetings. Then they sat down at the stone table and had a heart-to-heart talk.

"I'm just bored and reading to kill time. I'm not afraid of being laughed at by Sister Shu Fei. I come from a humble background and don't know anything. I need to read more, improve my character, and change my bad habits."

"What's the importance of background? The text is obscure and difficult to understand. My sister has only served the emperor for a few years. It's not easy for her to have her own opinions."
