Zhu Yixiu is reborn in Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace and single-handedly kills her way throug

"It's impolite not to reciprocate. Only by visiting often can we become closer day by day. Don't you agree, sister?"

Upon hearing this, Concubine Wan fell silent.

After a moment, she finally nodded and said, "Your Majesty is right. It is the concubine who has become distant."

Qingying swallowed another bite of dessert and said with a smile, "Speaking of which, my sister has been serving the emperor since she came to the palace. I know exactly how you feel about the emperor."

"But sister, have you ever thought about this? Is your non-competitiveness, watching the emperor's side replaced by new ones one after another, and watching the concubines in the palace become pregnant one after another, really what you wanted in the past?"

From the day she entered the palace, Concubine Wan was just as Qingying had described.

He did not fight or compete, nor did he take the initiative to seek a meeting with Hongli.

She is not very good-looking, and her personality is not very different from others.

Everything looks ordinary, so naturally he cannot receive favor.

The only thing I can show off is my talent.

If she were in the late emperor's harem, these talents might have attracted the emperor.

But what Hongli wants is not talent and romance.

Qingying's words made Concubine Wan silent.

It seems that the former queen would not say these things to herself.

Today, this is...

Because of what?

But then I thought, what the Queen said...

But it’s very true...

A bitter smile flashed across her lips. "Your Majesty is right. I am useless and cannot please the Emperor. I am also not blessed enough to have a child of my own."

"I don't think so."

Qingying smiled and said, "This time when we came to the Old Summer Palace, apart from those of us who were serving in the residence, there were only a few newcomers."

"Among the old people in the palace, you are the only one who has never been pregnant. Why did I make such an arrangement? Don't you understand?"

Concubine Wan was stunned.

How could she have thought that Qingying would say such a thing?

"Your Majesty, this concubine..."

"We have known each other for many years. I know who you are best."

"Of course, this foxy charm shouldn't be too aggressive, but a quiet and obedient sister like me shouldn't remain silent for so many years."

"I cannot bear to see my sister's affection for the Emperor go to waste."

The other ones are fine.

This last sentence actually hit the nail on the head, revealing the sadness that Concubine Wan had been feeling for many years.

Her eyes flushed slightly, "Empress, I, your concubine..."

I can't even form a complete sentence, but I'm already crying.

Qingying remained silent, looking at Concubine Wan with a calm expression.

After sobbing for a while, Concubine Wan felt embarrassed first.

She wiped away her tears with a handkerchief and said embarrassedly, "I have lost my composure. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

"You and I have known each other for many years, why should we care about these little details?"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, but I really don't know how to make the Emperor..."

To seek favor is as simple as possible.

"My sister is full of affection for the emperor. Aren't those poems and paintings she has written and painted many times good things?"

"These are all works of mine in private, how could they be worthy of the Emperor's approval..."

"What catches my eye doesn't necessarily have to be a masterpiece, it can also be my sister's sincere heart."

"But...I don't know how to let the emperor see this..."

This child is truly incorrigible.

Qingying sighed inwardly.

Turning around, she said, "Xiu Xia, go to Louyue Kaiyun Pavilion and tell them that I would like to invite the Queen Mother to visit Fuhai together tomorrow."

Xiuxia went down in response. Qingying looked at Concubine Wan and said, "We are new to this garden, so we should explore everywhere. Tomorrow, my sister will accompany me and the Queen Mother to visit Fuhai together."

"The Empress Dowager is an expert in calligraphy. You can bring your sister's calligraphy and portrait with you so that she can appreciate them."

Concubine Wan didn't know why the topic turned to boating on the lake even though they were clearly talking about favor.

But I always believe that the Queen will not harm me.

She nodded repeatedly, "Yes, it is my blessing to be able to accompany the Empress and the Queen Mother. I will definitely come early."

"Well, sister, please go back first and sort out the things you can take with you so that you can present them to the Queen Mother tomorrow."

At this moment, Concubine Wan immediately understood Qingying's meaning.
