The Rebirth of Li Fei: The Strongest Palace Fighting System
Chapter 63: The Queen Throws Musk
After hearing this, Yu Ying'er's face turned even paler. She lowered her head, with a hint of despair in her voice:
"I have been sent to Yimei Garden again. I really don't want to be a slave anymore. Please be considerate, Your Majesty!"
The Queen smiled gently, with a soothing tone in her voice:
"This is why I called you here today. Seeing you fall from a concubine to a servant, my heart aches. Therefore, I have informed the Emperor and decided to arrange a better place for you, so that you will no longer suffer so much."
"Thank you for your grace, Queen!"
The Queen nodded slightly, her eyes revealing a bit of scrutiny:
"You've always been by Concubine Hua's side. How come Concubine Hua didn't take care of you?"
Yu Ying'er's face darkened, and her tone was filled with anger and resentment:
"I have always been devoted to Concubine Hua and followed her lead. However, when the critical moment came, Concubine Hua couldn't protect me! I really didn't expect Concubine Hua to be so cruel. It seems that I followed the wrong master!"
After hearing this, the Queen nodded with satisfaction, a faint smile on her lips:
"In the harem, there is only one big tree to rely on. A wise bird chooses the right tree to roost in. You are able to understand the current situation, which is very good. As long as you are loyal, I will not treat you unfairly."
Yu Ying'er knelt before the Queen, her eyes firm and her tone sincere:
"Your Majesty, I, Yu Ying'er, swear hereby that I will be loyal to you and will never have second thoughts."
"Very good. I admire your determination. The newly promoted Concubine An is now in favor and has a gentle temperament. You will go to serve her for the time being. Of course, the Emperor will also visit Concubine An frequently. In this way, you will naturally appear in front of the Emperor often and be remembered by him. We will discuss future matters in detail."
Yu Ying'er was delighted and kowtowed to express her gratitude:
"Thank you for your grace, Queen. I will definitely live up to your high expectations."
The Queen gently raised her hand, motioning Yu Ying'er to stand up, and continued:
"One more thing. Regarding the 'white flower pill' incident last time, the sachet that Xiao Xiazi found is still with me. I plan to have someone remove the white flower pill from it and return it to you. You must wear this sachet every day. Every time you see it, you will be reminded of the lesson learned and warn yourself not to make the same mistake again."
"Your Majesty's instructions will be followed faithfully. I will keep them in mind and will never make the same mistake again."
"Alright, you may leave now. I will send someone to return the sachet to you. You can take care of yourself."
After Yu Ying'er completely disappeared from the gate of Jingren Palace, the Queen looked through the mirror, deep and mysterious at Jianqiu who was carefully dressing her:
"Jianqiu, go take that sachet to Yu Ying'er later. Remember, don't forget to add some 'fine' spices into it."
Upon hearing this, Jianqiu paused for a moment, then resumed her skilled movements.
"Don't worry, Madam. I understand what you mean."
......
as predicted!
Yu Ying'er had indeed surrendered to the Queen and became her spy!
And that "fine" spice is probably musk...
one stone two bird.
If Yu Ying'er were sent to my palace, I would surely smell her musk every day.
It prevented me from getting pregnant, and also prevented Yu Ying'er from becoming favored again and getting pregnant in the future.
I can't just sit there and wait for death, I have to think of a way.
......
Although I heard some unpleasant news from the oleander elf today, overall, good news prevailed today.
Not only did I get promoted from my previous status to a concubine, I also received generous gifts from various palaces and treasures bestowed by the emperor himself. These undoubtedly filled my heart with joy.
As the night deepened, I called Baojuan and asked her to help me dress and remove my makeup and prepare for bed.
I lay quietly in bed, feeling every inch of my skin relax. Everything that had happened today flashed through my mind like a revolving lantern: the joy of promotion, the abundant rewards, the confrontations with the Empress and Yu Ying'er... These experiences made me realize more clearly that in this palace, every step is filled with challenges and opportunities.
However, at this moment, I no longer had time to think about the complicated court struggles. I took a deep breath and let myself completely immerse in this quiet and peaceful atmosphere.
Soon, my consciousness began to blur, my body gradually relaxed, and finally, I fell into a sweet dream.
......
I remember when I was in the Zhen Mansion, my aunt Fangruo once said that in this palace, if one wants to improve one's status, the emperor's favor is important, but the more important thing is offspring.
Thinking back to my previous life, I was forced by the Queen to take contraceptive medicine after each night with her, which damaged my body and ultimately made me unable to have children. An indescribable hatred welled up in my heart.
In this life, I will never let this happen again. I secretly made up my mind to treat myself better, take good care of my body, make sure to pay more attention to my diet, and be in the best condition to welcome the possible arrival of my offspring.
After being promoted to a concubine, I did have a lot more food tickets, but my financial situation has also improved greatly now, so I decided to use these tickets for my own enjoyment and to nourish my body.
I heard that Dong'e Ejiao is a great product for women to replenish their qi and blood. I have four boxes in my warehouse now. Two boxes were sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs on the eve of "Returning the Jade to Zhao" and the other two boxes were sent by the Queen yesterday.
"Baojuan,"
I called softly:
"Go get me some Dong'e Ejiao. Just take the two boxes that the Ministry of Internal Affairs gave me as a gift. Don't take the wrong ones."
Baojuan was a little puzzled:
"But, my lady, the Queen also sent two boxes yesterday. Why didn't you eat the ones the Queen sent?"
I turned up the volume intentionally:
"I naturally can't bear to eat the Empress's gift so easily. I'd better eat the one sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs first. This way I can show my respect for the Empress."
I deliberately raised my voice so that Yu Ying'er beside me could hear it.
I thought to myself that the reason I decided to eat the donkey-hide gelatin sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs instead of the one given by the Queen was actually because I still had a trace of vigilance and insecurity in my heart.
The hearts of people in this palace are hard to predict, especially the Queen. I have to be on guard. I still have to win over an imperial physician and let him examine me before I can feel at ease.
Soon, Baojuan brought some Dong'e Ejiao. After taking a few pieces, I got up and prepared to go out.
I know that the "Apricot Blossoms and Light Rain" incident has not ended yet, so I plan to go to Sui Yuxuan to see Zhen Huan.
When I went out, I saw Yu Ying'er sweeping the floor.
"Good luck to the young master."
Yu Ying'er greeted me.
I looked carefully and found the sachet on Yu Ying'er's waist.
