The Rebirth of Li Fei: The Strongest Palace Fighting System

The pavilion is elegantly decorated with carved beams and painted buildings, and is magnificent. On the central stage, actors in gorgeous costumes perform fascinating stories of joy and sorrow.

The queen sat upright on a high platform, wearing a gorgeous dress embroidered with gold and phoenixes, with pearls and jade on her head. Her face was rosy, and her eyes were filled with an unconcealable joy.

She occasionally took a sip of the fragrant tea in her hand, a smug smile appearing on the corner of her mouth. It was obvious that she was in a particularly good mood today.

Indeed, the Queen's recent success in overthrowing Nian Shilan not only eliminated a major worry, but also established her prestige within the harem and consolidated her position. This victory was undoubtedly the greatest source of her joy today.

The concubines around were either talking in low voices or watching with smiles, but only Guaerjia kept chattering beside the queen:

"Fortunately, the Empress is in the palace, otherwise I would always feel empty inside. Moreover, I would have to endure humiliation and be looked down upon by others. My heart..."

She was not the one who suffered humiliation or looked down upon. A few days ago, she not only humiliated Nian Shilan, who was demoted to a concubine, in the long street, but also openly ridiculed Zhen Huan, who was of higher status than her, in the imperial garden. These deeds had already been widely circulated in the harem.

However, at this moment I had no time to care about these trivial matters. My heart was full of confusion about Zhen Huan's indifferent attitude towards me in Sui Yuxuan.

Just as I was immersed in my own thoughts, the song ended and there was thunderous applause. The queen gently raised her hand, signaling everyone to be quiet.

I took this opportunity to slowly stand up, bow to the Queen in the most elegant manner, and whispered:

"Your Majesty, I feel a little unwell and would like to change my clothes and adjust my posture. I will be back immediately so as not to disturb the pleasure of Your Majesty and the other sisters."

The Queen instructed:

"Noble Concubine An is pregnant, so you must be careful in everything you do. Go quickly and come back quickly, don't let me worry."

After saying that, she waved her hand gently, signaling me to leave.

At this moment, a complicated look flashed in the eyes of Guaerjia, who was standing by, as if she wanted to take this opportunity to show her goodwill to me in order to highlight the improvement of her status.

She took a step forward and said in an almost flattering tone:

"I am willing to accompany Her Majesty An and do my bit to help and take care of you."

I smiled faintly, but I knew her intentions clearly. I shook my head slightly, and said with a tone of unquestionable refusal:

"Thank you for your kindness, Concubine Qi. However, having Baoque and the others serving you personally is more than enough. Concubine Qi should stay here and continue to accompany the Empress, sharing this rare opera time."

Upon hearing this, a trace of embarrassment flashed across Guaerjia's face, but she still forced a smile and nodded in agreement.

Her change in attitude this time was simply because I was different now, a dragon-born woman with a prominent status. I hadn't forgotten the contempt and insults she had inflicted on me in my previous life, but at this moment, I was more concerned with finding the reason for Zhen Huan's sudden change in attitude.

So, I left on an excuse, secretly planning in my heart that I would ask Xiaotao to ask the oleander elf on an excuse, maybe I could get some clues from it, so I must not let Guarjia follow me.

As for Guaerjia, the noble lady who once mocked my humble family background and excluded me, I will make her understand that I, An Lingrong, am not someone who can be bullied. I am no longer the same person as before.

......

After leaving Qingyin Pavilion, I found an excuse to send Baoque away, and then walked into a remote and quiet corner.

There was no one around, only the occasional chirping of insects and the lingering sound of distant opera, adding a bit of mystery to this hidden corner of the harem.

I nodded gently to Xiaotao, and Xiaotao immediately understood and carefully took out a delicate flower scroll from her wide sleeves.

I took the flower scroll, a mixture of anticipation and nervousness welling up in my heart. Slowly unfolding it, I saw it suddenly gleam with a soft and mysterious pink light the moment it touched my fingertips, like the gentlest ray of light at dawn, illuminating the surroundings with a dreamlike quality.

......

Inside the Qixiang Palace, sunlight shines through the exquisite window lattices, dappling onto the jade-smooth marble floor, complementing the exquisite furnishings in the room and creating a tranquil and noble atmosphere.

In a corner of the palace, there are several pots of precious flowers, the fragrance of which is intoxicating, adding a touch of vitality and tenderness to this solemn place.

On the high seat, Cao Qinmo, dressed in gorgeous palace clothes and wearing intricate pearls and jade on her head, sat there, her brows revealing an unconcealable sense of satisfaction and pride.

She had just been granted the title of "Xiang", which was undoubtedly an improvement in her status in the harem.

"My concubine, my noble concubine, I will climb up step by step. The higher I climb, the better Wen Yi's future will be."

"Your Majesty, you have such good intentions for the princess. In fact, as long as the princess is loved by the emperor, it is more important than anything else."

"Princess Wan is pregnant, Concubine An is pregnant, and Concubine Fucha just gave birth to a prince. There will only be more and more children in this palace..."

Cao Qinmo paused, a trace of anxiety flashed across his face:

"These people will one day block my path to becoming a concubine. Profits gather, and when they are gone, they disperse. Now that Concubine Hua has fallen, there is no room for mercy between Concubine An and me."

The maid next to her, Yinxiu, said:

"Since entering the palace, Noble Concubine An has been promoted rapidly and has many children. If she becomes an enemy in the future... she should not be underestimated."

Cao Qinmo said worriedly:

"Yes, although Concubine An is of humble origin and holds a high position, she is not favored by the Emperor. But if the child she is pregnant with is born one day, and it turns out to be a prince... we must be on guard."

"Then, what are you going to do, Madam?"

"Kill someone with a borrowed knife. Let's go and see Wanpin."

......

"My Lady, it seems that Concubine Cao has betrayed you after all."

I sighed softly, a complex emotion flashing across my eyes:

"It's something I expected, but I didn't expect it to happen so soon."

Although I had been mentally prepared, I couldn't help but feel a little disappointed when I finally faced this moment. Within the palace, hearts are unpredictable; today's friend might be tomorrow's enemy. I've long known this.

"Look, Madam! The image on the flower shadow axis has turned into the Broken Jade Pavilion."

I frowned and secretly thought about how to deal with the situation.

The picture on the flower shadow axis continues to flow, and every detail may become a key clue.

In this palace struggle, every tiny mistake could lead to a complete loss. Therefore, I must remain calm and act cautiously to remain invincible in this war without gunpowder.

......

Inside Suiyuxuan, sunlight shines through the exquisite window lattices and shines into the elegantly decorated and warm house. The air is filled with the faint fragrance of flowers and tea, creating a quiet and comfortable atmosphere.

Zhen Huan and Cao Qinmo sat on either side of a table with an exquisite tea set on it. Both of them looked quite solemn.
