Transmigration: Reverse Exploitation, the System Works for Me

As expected, Yu Ying'er was diagnosed with a pregnancy of over a month. The emperor was overjoyed to have gained a son after losing one, and immediately bestowed upon her the title of "Consort" and granted her residence in the Jinghe Hall, the main hall behind Zhongcui Palace.

"This place is spacious and quiet. I originally intended to grant Suochuoluo's request, but she wanted to live closer to the Empress Dowager, so she moved to Chunxi Palace."

Yu Ying'er had been to Chunxi Palace, but had never seen Jinghe Palace, and did not know the difference between the two. She just smiled and thanked the Emperor, saying, "What the Emperor gives must be the best. This servant thanks the Emperor for his grace."

The emperor was already pleased with her pregnancy, and was even happier to see how obedient she was.

"You are a good person. Since you began serving me, you have been obedient, polite, and have never caused trouble. Today, I am pleased and bestow upon you another title. I will use... Zhuang, which describes your dignified and graceful appearance, and your warm and gentle jade-like face. This phrase suits you perfectly!"

Yu Ying'er was overjoyed and immediately knelt down to express her gratitude.

After being helped up by the emperor's men, she mustered her courage and cautiously said, "Your Majesty, I dare to ask for a favor for Sister Suochuoluo as well."

The Emperor hadn't visited Consort Suochuoluo for quite some time. Only when Yu Ying'er mentioned it did he remember that Consort Suochuoluo also came from the Empress Dowager's palace. The two of them had become pregnant one after the other. Consort Zhuang became pregnant later and was already given a title. Consort Suochuoluo really shouldn't have been overlooked.

"I didn't expect you to get along with Lady Suochuoluo. Since you're in a good mood today, I'll bestow another title upon Lady Suochuoluo: Shu, which means Shu Da Ying."

"On behalf of my sister, I thank Your Majesty." She smiled, her eyes crinkling, adding to her charm. "My sister Suochuoluo and I come from humble backgrounds and both came from the Empress Dowager's side, so we are naturally closer. Besides, the other sisters don't like to be with us, so over time, we are the only ones who can talk to each other."

The emperor knew that the two women had been sidelined, and thought, "One or two close friends are enough."

Then he remembered that he hadn't visited Lady Suochuoluo in a long time. "Pack your things and move to Zhongcui Palace as soon as possible. I'm going to see Consort Shu."

Yu Ying'er smiled as she saw him off, but then her face darkened and she snorted coldly, "Sister is right, if a man can lean on a sow, he can climb a tree!"

The emperor is even more unreliable.

The closer you are, the faster you'll die!

Although the emperor has left, fortunately he left Xiaxiazi to help Yu Ying'er move.

Yu Ying'er sat casually in her chair, directing Pearl and the palace maids Xia Xiazi had just brought to pack their luggage. "Hurry up, everyone will be rewarded today for this joyous occasion. The sooner you finish packing, the sooner you'll get your reward."

Upon hearing this, the three palace maids indeed moved much faster.

She then turned to Xia Zi and said, "Eunuch Xia, I have a favor to ask of you. Xiao Lezi, the eunuch in charge of cleaning the rear hall of Yonghe Palace, is a good person. I would appreciate it if you could help me transfer him to Jinghe Palace."

As she spoke, she took a few small pieces of gold, about the size of peanuts, from the purse at her waist and gave them to him.

Xiazi's face lit up with a big smile when she saw the six golden little things in her palm. Oh my, Young Master Yu is really generous!

"Please rest for a moment, Your Highness. I will take care of it right away. I guarantee you will see Xiao Lezi when you arrive at Jinghe Palace."

Seeing Xia Zi's retreating figure, Yu Ying'er touched her purse with heartache. Although, it was gold!

The news that another pregnant concubine, Zhuang, had appeared in the harem quickly spread throughout the palace. What was even more infuriating was that Suochuoluo, another concubine, was granted a title and would henceforth be called Shu.

The Empress Dowager was delighted upon hearing the news; Yu Ying'er was indeed a promising girl, becoming pregnant so quickly. She immediately instructed Chunmao to prepare gold, silver, silk, bird's nest, and other tonics, and to have Xi Qiao deliver them to Yu Ying'er.

Xi Qiao went into the main hall to express his gratitude to the Empress Dowager before heading to Zhongcui Palace with his belongings.
