The Rebirth of Li Fei: The Strongest Palace Fighting System

Hearing the emperor's anger, Xia Dongchun and Ulanara were so frightened that they trembled all over and fell to their knees.

Xia Dongchun said in a trembling voice:

"I know I was wrong, please forgive me, Your Majesty."

The Ulanara family tried to beg for mercy by using the story of Junyuan's sister:

"Your Majesty, I was also in a state of panic. I remembered that Sister Chunyuan's second brother, like my eldest brother, died young. I couldn't help but feel deeply sad, so I lost my composure. Please, Your Majesty, remember my past contributions and forgive me this time."

However, the emperor was not moved at all. He said coldly:

"The rules cannot be abolished. Nianpin, for giving birth to the princess, will be promoted to Huafei. The official girl Songzhi, for taking care of the dragon fetus, will be promoted to Yingying. As for the two of you,"

The Emperor turned his gaze towards Xia Dongchun and Ulanara, "You are making a noise here, disturbing the princess and Concubine Hua, who just gave birth. You will both be demoted!"

Upon hearing this, Ulanara's face turned pale as paper in an instant.

She wanted to argue a few more times, but seeing the emperor's unquestionable look, she could only swallow her words back into her stomach.

She turned to Cao Qinmo and Guaerjia, hoping they could say a few good words for her. However, Cao Qinmo and Guaerjia pretended not to see her, lowered their heads, and did not dare to meet Ulanara's eyes.

At this moment, Ulanara finally realized that her position in the palace was in jeopardy. Her former allies and subordinates now avoided her, fearing that they would be implicated in her misfortune.

And she could only silently accept the emperor's punishment and wait for the next turn of fate.

At this time, Su Peisheng spoke carefully, with a hint of caution in his voice:

"Your Majesty, regarding the regulations for Noble Consorts below the Imperial Noble Consort, there are currently two Noble Consorts in the palace, and the quota is indeed full..."

Upon hearing this, the Emperor's eyes became even more resolute, and he said without a doubt:

"Is the position of imperial concubine vacant? Since the position of noble concubine is full, then we can demote one more! Such a noisy incident will never be allowed to happen again in my palace."

When the concubines present heard the emperor's decision, they were all shocked.

Ulanara's face turned pale. She didn't expect the emperor to be so decisive and to demote her position again and again.

Xiao Tao beside me whispered in my ear:

"Although Nian Shilan has returned to the position of Hua Fei, she is now far inferior to the previous Imperial Noble Consort. And Ulanara is even more miserable. She was directly demoted from Imperial Noble Consort to Consort. Not only did she lose the title, but her favor index also dropped to 30%. It's really gratifying."

I nodded slightly, thinking to myself, "The struggles in this palace have always been cruel and realistic."

Favor and status often hang in the balance. The Ulanara family's downfall today could be the catalyst for someone else's rise tomorrow. And I must remain vigilant to maintain my position in this palace.

I looked at Nian Shilan and saw that although she had returned to the position of Concubine Hua, her eyes revealed a kind of determination and indomitable spirit.

I took a deep breath and suppressed my thoughts. I knew that no matter what the future held, I had to remain calm and rational in order to survive the storm in this palace.

......

After everyone left Yiku Palace, I deliberately took Xia Dongchun to stay, intending to bridge the rift between her and Nian Shilan.

In my heart, Nian Shilan and Xia Dongchun are both my followers, and their harmonious coexistence is of vital importance to me. I know that in the palace, turmoil is surging, and only internal unity can withstand the storms from the outside.

I looked around. The flickering candlelight within the Yikun Palace cast a tranquil and profound atmosphere. I spoke softly, attempting to gently resolve the grudge between the two.

Under my guidance, Nian Shilan and Xia Dongchun's attitudes gradually softened. The warmth they expressed to each other was like a gentle spring breeze, gradually melting the frost in their hearts. Just like the successful mediation I had done a few days ago between Nian Shilan and Concubine Duan.

Within the imperial court, favor and status are ever-changing. Only through unity can we secure our position and achieve our common goal. Therefore, I will doubly cherish this friendship, strive to maintain harmony between us, and jointly meet the challenges of the future.

......

Time flies, and two months have passed in the blink of an eye. I am already six months pregnant. My belly is getting bigger and bigger, and the power of life is quietly growing in my body.

During this period, many changes also took place in the palace.

Because of her appearance similar to Zhen Huan, Concubine Zhen was deeply favored by the emperor and was promoted to Concubine Zhen. She no longer lived in a remote place like Suiyuxuan, but was properly placed by me in Chengqian Palace and became the main seat there.

This move not only enhances Zhenpin's status, but also is a way for me to show my goodwill to the emperor and let him feel my care and consideration.

The Emperor was quite pleased with my arrangement, and besides praising me, the affection between him and me did indeed rise again. However, this joy did not completely fill my heart.

Watching Concubine Zhen's rise to prominence, I knew clearly in my heart that the Emperor's obsession with Zhen Huan had never truly dissipated.

Although I know that according to my memories of my previous life, Zhen Huan will not be able to return to the palace until three years later, time flies and a year and a half has passed.

At this time, the oleander elf did not give any new tasks. Everything in the palace seemed to be proceeding in an orderly manner under my control.

Beneath this calmness, I felt an unprecedented sense of urgency.

Now that everything seems to be on track, why not plan ahead and make arrangements in advance to prevent Zhen Huan from returning to the palace? This is a contest of wisdom and scheming, and I must be the winner of this game.

Just as I was thinking about this, Xiao Tao suddenly pushed the door open in a panic:

"Your Majesty! This is bad! Xiao Tao just saw Shen Meizhuang playing with Long Yue in the Imperial Garden. She met the Emperor and, along with Su Peisheng, suggested that the Emperor go to Ganlu Temple to pray for blessings on the second day of the second lunar month!"

"what?!"

......

"Your Majesty, at this rate, Zhen Huan will be back in the palace soon!"

I was startled and asked:

"Isn't there still three years left? How could it be so fast?"

Xiao Tao frowned and replied:

"Your Majesty, please don't forget that it was us who brought forward the time for Zhen Huan to leave the palace. Since history has been changed by us, other aspects will naturally change as well."

When I heard this, an ominous premonition suddenly surged in my heart:

"Oh no! The Emperor has already made up his mind to leave. It seems we are too late! Has the Ulanara clan found out?"

Xiaotao nodded:

"Ulanara must have known about this, but in her previous life, she was the queen and couldn't stop Zhen Huan from returning to the palace. In this life, she is just a concubine, so what can she do?"

I pondered for a moment, and a plan came to my mind:

"Yes, the Emperor has always been obsessed with Zhen Huan. If we take action directly, it will only make the Emperor more disgusted. Why not try it through the hands of the Ulanara family first!"

"How to try?"

"Huanbi!"
