Quick Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character's Revenge

Chapter 10 Cannon Fodder Concubine's Counterattack to Become Empress Dowager

"His Royal Highness King Yu?"

Just as Xiao Yu was examining the handkerchief, a eunuch's shout came over.

Xiao Yu immediately stuffed the handkerchief into the front of his shirt.

"I am here."

Xiao Tai heard the response and quickly rushed over.

"Oh, Your Highness, so you've been here!"

"what happened?"

"His Majesty was worried that you might have gotten drunk and passed out outside, so he sent this servant to find you."

Xiao Yu's eyes flickered, but his expression remained unchanged.

"The king is fine."

After saying that, he went back to the banquet with the little eunuch.

Meanwhile, Qi Ning also returned to Chang Le Palace.

She pulled Qiu Lu aside and instructed her, "Qiu Lu, remember not to reveal that I was drunk tonight and had a casual chat with His Highness Prince Yu."

Qiu Lu nodded solemnly: "Your Majesty, please rest assured, this servant understands!"

In Qiu Lu's opinion, her mistress was in a bad mood tonight and was drunk. She had no one to confide in, so chatting with Prince Yu would be a good way to ease her mood.

Besides, she was standing nearby when Her Majesty and Prince Yu were talking, and the two of them did nothing inappropriate; they were completely innocent.

But this matter must never be known to outsiders, and Qiu Lu understood this very well.

After agreeing, she went to arrange hot water for Qi Ning to take a bath.

Qi Ning sat lazily in the bathtub, actually talking to the system.

The system just told her that Xiao Yu's affection value was detected tonight. Although it wasn't high, the affection value had already appeared.

Qi Ning played with the flower petals in the bathtub and asked the system, "I remember you said before that you could provide some help, what was it called again, finger?"

"A cheat code!" The system was very proud and repeated its abilities.

"Host, which one do you want to use?"

Qi Ning pondered for a moment: "Then let's create a dream."

If they could meet often, Qi Ning wouldn't mind slowly winning over Xiao Yu.

However, Qi Ning's mission was time-sensitive, and given her and Xiao Yu's different identities, it was really difficult for them to meet.

Now that the affection value has appeared, she wants to strike while the iron is hot and create a dream for Xiao Yu.

Anyway, there's no harm in using those "cheat codes" in the system; it's always good to speed up the task process.

After Xiao Yu returned to the banquet, he was asked a few more questions by the emperor.

He inevitably felt somewhat guilty.

Xiao Jin was a cautious and suspicious person, and Xiao Yu dared not underestimate him, so he carefully dealt with the situation.

Back at the palace, his feelings were still somewhat complicated.

But upon closer reflection, he found it somewhat amusing. He had only had a few private encounters with Consort Ning. Xiao Yu admitted that he was somewhat curious and fond of her, but he knew very well that Consort Ning was his imperial uncle's concubine. How could he possibly have any other thoughts about her?

He must not have much contact with women usually, so he has some misconceptions.

Xiao Yu shook his head, trying to stop himself from overthinking, and turned to take a bath.

Fang Ping was in the outer room tidying up Xiao Yu's clothes, intending to hand them over to the servants to wash.

However, when Fang Ping picked up Xiao Yu's clothes, he found a white handkerchief with purple embroidery inside.

This handkerchief is clearly for women. How could Your Highness have such a thing?

Fang Ping was about to pick it up and examine it closely.

He reached out, but before he could even touch the handkerchief, he suddenly heard a voice: "Stop!"

Fang Ping was startled. He turned around and realized that Xiao Yu, who had gone to take a bath, had come out at some point.

"Your Highness, this handkerchief?"

Xiao Yu frowned and walked over quickly. He took the handkerchief and said, "Don't worry about this."

Fang Ping then asked, "Your Highness, shouldn't this handkerchief be washed?"

"No need, you can take the other things and go downstairs."

"Yes." Fang Ping didn't dare to ask any more questions and quickly took the other clothes and went downstairs.

Xiao Yu then unfolded the handkerchief and examined it carefully under the lamplight.

I don't know when we'll meet again; I need to find a chance to return it to her.

Xiao Yu carefully folded the handkerchief and put it away before turning off the light and going to bed.

After lying down, he was overcome by both the effects of the alcohol and drowsiness, and he quickly fell asleep.

But for some reason, Xiao Yu returned to the shore of Qiushui Lake.

He was about to leave when he saw Qi Ning, who had already left, rush back.

"Consort Ning, didn't you go back to the palace? Why are you back again?" Xiao Yu asked, puzzled.

Qi Ning was slightly out of breath in front of him. She looked down at the ground and searched for something: "My handkerchief is missing. I came back to look for my handkerchief."

handkerchief?

Xiao Yu reached out and touched his chest.

Qi Ning searched the vicinity but couldn't find it, so she went to Xiao Yu and looked up at him, asking, "Your Highness, have you seen my handkerchief?"

Xiao Yu saw it, of course. He picked it up intending to return it to her, but since he had the handkerchief on his chest, he was a little embarrassed to take it out.

"I...I didn't see it..."

"Really? Then why are you clutching your chest?"

"I……"

Qi Ning simply reached out and pulled away his hand covering his chest, then pulled the handkerchief out of his shirt.

"Your Highness, why did you steal my handkerchief?" she asked, her eyes wide.

Xiao Yu panicked: "I didn't steal it, I found it and planned to return it to you later."

"Then why didn't you give it back to me just now? Why did you say you didn't see it?"

"that is because……"

Xiao Yu was afraid that Qi Ning would misunderstand, but now it seems that the misunderstanding has become even more serious.

Qi Ning leaned closer to him: "Your Highness, why are you secretly hiding my handkerchief?"

Xiao Yu was about to explain that he did not have any ill intentions towards her, but at that moment the eunuch sent by the emperor came over.

"Your Highness? His Highness Prince Yu?"

Xiao Yu panicked. Afraid of being seen, he grabbed Qi Ning's hand without thinking and led her into a nearby artificial mountain cave.

The cave was narrow, barely able to accommodate two people, and extremely crowded.

Xiao Yu could only hold Qi Ning in his arms.

Qi Ning struggled in his arms: "What are you doing? Let go of me!"

"Shh!"

Xiao Yu reached out and covered her lips.

The young eunuch was still searching nearby; his footsteps could be heard constantly moving around.

The moonlight outside only reached the entrance of the cave, which was dark and gloomy inside. Xiao Yu held the person in his arms tightly, breathing in her warmth.

After an unknown amount of time, Qi Ning struggled in his arms again.

She tilted her head back in his arms and whispered, "He's gone."

Xiao Yu looked down at her, his gaze sliding from her beautiful eyes to her full lips.

His heart skipped a beat, and he involuntarily lowered his head and kissed Qi Ning's lips.

……

Qi Ning hurriedly woke up from her dream, her expression indescribable.

"System, is this what you meant by entering a dream?"

Qi Ning had just requested "creating a dream," but the system strongly recommended "entering a dream," saying that entering a dream would allow her to personally enter Xiao Yu's dream and appear in the dream with him, making it more realistic.

Qi Ning believed its nonsense and tried to enter the dream, but unexpectedly Xiao Yu kissed her directly.

The system, never one to shy away from a good show, chuckled and said, "Host, just tell me, is it real or not?"

Qi Ning rolled her eyes in annoyance.

"Are you sure the person in your dream was Xiao Yu himself?"

He seems quite restrained in real life, so why did he suddenly become so reckless in his dream?

The system said, "Without a doubt, Xiao Yu in reality is rational and clear-headed; the Xiao Yu in the dream was simply revealing his true thoughts."

Fine.

In any case, Qi Ning was just using the dream to take a shortcut in order to speed up the mission.

Regardless, she has achieved her goal.

Qi Ning fell asleep immediately.

Prince Yu's Mansion

Xiao Yu suddenly opened his eyes and then sat up in bed.

He was panting heavily, and cold sweat was beading on his forehead.

Was he just having a dream?

He actually dreamed about Consort Ning, and even made inappropriate advances towards her in the dream?

This realization was somewhat unacceptable to Xiao Yu.

Could it be that he really covets the Emperor's concubines?

Also, the dream he just had was far too real, so real that he could still remember the soft touch of Qi Ning's lips...

-

After the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, Chu Yiyao became increasingly anxious and restless.

Now that news of a general election after the new year has spread, she has naturally received the news as well.

"Sister Ning, when exactly can I leave the palace?" Chu Yiyao asked Qi Ning anxiously.

Qi Ning stroked the rabbit in his arms: "Yi Yao, this matter cannot be rushed. His Majesty is not an ordinary person, and it is not so easy to leave the palace. We must make full preparations."

"But Xiao Jin is about to hold the general election and marry the empress. Can I leave as soon as possible?"

Upon hearing Chu Yiyao's words, Qi Ning paused in stroking the rabbit.

Chu Yiyao stared intently at Qi Ning, her eyes filled with pleading.

Qi Ning put the rabbit down from her arms before speaking: "You want to leave before His Majesty marries the Empress?"

Chu Yiyao nodded, then shook her head: "It would be best to leave before the election."

Qi Ning pondered for a long time: "If you've made up your mind, it's not impossible."

Chu Yiyao's eyes lit up: "Sister, what do you think we should do?"

“You didn’t sneak away during the last autumn hunt, which lowered His Majesty’s guard somewhat, but it’s far from enough. You need to convince His Majesty that you really won’t run away, so that your chances of leaving will increase.”

Chu Yiyao understood immediately: "So, you mean Xiao Jin needs to take me out of the palace a few more times so he can test me a few more times?"

Qi Ning hummed in agreement: "You could say that, but it's troublesome to always have to come up with an excuse to get His Majesty to take you out of the palace."

She pondered for a moment and said, "How about this? There's still some time before the end of the year. Try to get His Majesty to issue an order to stay at the Western Suburbs Palace for two months. During these two months, it will be convenient for His Majesty to take you out for fun. If you try it a few more times, His Majesty's vigilance will definitely decrease a lot."

Chu Yiyao nodded repeatedly: "Sister Ning, you really have a way!"

Qi Ning poured cold water on the idea: "Don't be too happy yet. The important thing is to think about how to get His Majesty to agree to stay at the Western Suburbs Palace for an extended period without arousing his suspicion."

“Sister is right.” Chu Yiyao’s expression turned serious.

After that day, Chu Yiyao began to think about how to get Xiao Jin to agree to stay at the Western Suburbs Palace for an extended period.

A few days later, Chu Yiyao suddenly "fell ill".

The imperial physician was summoned, and he said that Consort Yao had fallen ill because she was depressed and had a poor appetite.

Ultimately, it's a psychological problem.

Heart disease also needs a heart medicine doctor.

The emperor was at a loss for what to do. Of course, he felt sorry for Chu Yiyao, but he could not let her leave.

The only solution is to take her out of the palace more often to relax her, like during the autumn hunt last time.

However, the emperor was busy with state affairs and did not have much time to take her out of the palace often.

At this point, Qi Ning took the opportunity to suggest that he could take Chu Yiyao to stay at the Western Suburbs Palace for a while, as the palace had hot springs that would help her recuperate.
