When Sheng Yunrou said this, everyone in the room was shocked.

The emperor was stunned for a moment, then he couldn't help laughing: "Hahaha, Prime Minister Sheng's daughter is indeed extraordinary."

Sheng Yunrou, however, just looked up at the emperor with burning eyes: "So, Your Majesty, do you like me? Are you willing to let me enter the palace?"

The emperor raised his lips and said, "Is this what you really mean?"

"Naturally sincere."

The emperor and Sheng Yunrou exchanged a glance, then looked at Sheng Lin again: "What do you think, Prime Minister Sheng?"

Sheng Lin lowered his head and said, "My daughter has been rude and offended Your Majesty. I beg Your Majesty to forgive me. But my daughter has always admired Your Majesty very much. As a father, I naturally hope that she can be with the person she loves."

The Queen, standing by, hid her anger in time and took over the conversation: "Since Miss Sheng, a young girl, has the courage to express her love, if Your Majesty does not take Miss Sheng into the palace, Miss Sheng will probably become a laughing stock."

"How about Your Majesty give Miss Sheng a rank and take her into the palace?"

The Queen's suggestion was exactly what the Emperor was thinking. The Emperor immediately turned around and asked, "What rank do you think would be best for the Queen?"

"I feel that Miss Sheng is the daughter of the Prime Minister and comes from a prominent family. She should be made a concubine."

The emperor nodded: "Okay, then make her a concubine!"

"Is anyone from the Imperial Observatory here?"

The people from the Imperial Observatory immediately stood up.

The emperor immediately issued an order: "Appoint the Second Miss Sheng as Consort Rou. You will calculate an auspicious day, hold the ceremony to confer the title of Consort Rou, and bring her into the palace."

"Yes, I obey the order."

Sheng Nanzhi was a little surprised. Although he knew that Sheng Yunrou was not from their place and acted boldly, he never thought that she would be so bold.

However, Sheng Yunrou's behavior just now should have pleased His Majesty. The smile on His Majesty's face has never faded since Sheng Yunrou started speaking.

But if Your Majesty is happy, there will be many people who are unhappy.

Sheng Nanzhi secretly glanced at the concubines sitting on the throne, and their expressions were all equally ugly.

Just when Sheng Nanzhi thought everything was settled, Sheng Yunrou spoke again: "Then, am I now your Majesty's Concubine Rou?"

The emperor raised his eyebrows: "Of course."

Sheng Yunrou had already begun to sweat slightly on the back of her neck, and she was almost holding back to the extreme: "Then I want Your Majesty to accompany me and go choose the palace where I will live in the future, is that okay?"

The emperor also vaguely saw some clues, and after a moment's hesitation, he nodded: "Okay, let's go, I will go with you."

"My dear ministers, please continue to enjoy the song and dance performance. I will be back soon."

The emperor got off the throne and walked to Sheng Yunrou. Sheng Yunrou took the emperor's arm without any hesitation, and the two walked away together.

Seeing Sheng Lin's stunned face, Sheng Nanzhi whispered, "Second sister just said that she felt a little itchy. Someone must have tampered with her clothes."

"She had been holding it in until now. The drug must have been too powerful, and she couldn't bear it any longer, so she had no choice but to resort to this desperate measure."

Sheng Lin was stunned: "But she shouldn't be so flamboyant. I don't know how many enemies she will make."

Sheng Nanzhi curled her lips and said, "My daughter, it seems that His Majesty really likes Second Sister to be so outspoken."

"As long as Your Majesty likes it, the attitudes of others are not that important."

"As long as my second sister enters the palace, she will definitely offend all the concubines in the palace. If she can win the favor of His Majesty, His Majesty will protect her."

This is true.

Sheng Lin let out a long sigh. Now that things had come to this, there was no other way.

Sheng Yunrou was gone for nearly two hours.

When she came back, although her outer clothes had not changed, the pattern of the inner garment exposed at the side of her neck was completely different from before.

The emperor was in a good mood, smiling: "The Mingyue Palace next to Mingyue Lake will be given to Concubine Rou."

The queen lowered her eyes and agreed.

The emperor glanced across the hall and said, "My dear ministers, you all seem to have had enough to drink. Let's end today's palace banquet. Dismissed."

After the banquet, Sheng Lin took the two of them out of the palace and got on a carriage.

Sheng Yunrou insisted on riding with her, and once they were in the carriage, she said something shocking: "That night was my virginity, and the Emperor wasn't so gentle either. It hurt so much that I barely felt any pleasure at all."

"I feel quite comfortable today. You are right. The emperor is not that old after all."

Sheng Nanzhi's eyelids twitched suddenly. Where on earth did Sheng Yunrou come from? What was her identity before she came here? How could she be so reckless?

She quickly changed the subject: "Are you okay? Are you still itchy?"

Sheng Yunrou shook her head: "His Majesty called the imperial physician and confirmed that I was indeed drugged."

"I don't know which bitch doesn't want me to enter the palace, but I won't do as she wishes."

Sheng Yunrou stretched out her hand and showed Sheng Nanzhi the marks on her palm from being pinched: "I almost pinched my palm to pieces."

"If I find out who schemed against me like this, I won't let him off easily."

Sheng Yunrou said thoughtfully: "I think it's the queen."

"Queen?" Sheng Nanzhi was surprised.

"Yes." Sheng Yunrou nodded: "Have you forgotten? I am the Phoenix Lord of Heaven, with the Phoenix Fate. She must be very clear that if I enter the palace, I will definitely take her position as queen."

"Moreover, the Queen's previous statement on my behalf, asking His Majesty to accept me as his concubine, seemed more like an attempt to cover up her guilty conscience."

Sheng Nanzhi doesn't think so.

She felt that besides the emperor, she was the person who most wanted Sheng Yunrou to enter the palace.

After all, the queen has two princes. The eldest prince has already married a wife, and the eighth prince is still young, so there is no way for him to marry Sheng Yunrou.

Sheng Yunrou stared at the prophecy of the Lord of Heaven's Fate Phoenix. The Queen definitely did not want her to marry any of the other princes.

Instead of marrying any of the other princes, it would be better to bring her directly into the palace as a concubine.

After all, there are already many concubines in the palace, not just one.

But allowing her to enter the palace would at least allow her two princes to regain their dominant position among the princes competing for the throne.

When a woman reaches the position of queen, especially when she reaches the age of queen.

In fact, the love for men is very light.

They care more about whether their children can ascend to the throne.

But these are just Sheng Nanzhi's analysis.

She wouldn't tell Sheng Yunrou.

Instead, he just nodded in agreement with Sheng Yunrou: "My sister's guess is indeed very likely."

"After all, the drug was put inside my sister's underwear."

"That should have been done by someone close to my sister."

"And it should have been laid before we entered the palace."

"My sister was sent back to the palace by the eldest prince the day before yesterday. The only person who knew that my sister had a relationship with His Majesty was the eldest prince. The eldest prince is the Queen's son, so if the eldest prince knew, then naturally, the Queen would also know."

"That will give me the opportunity and time to arrange for someone to take action against my sister."
