Transmigration: Experiencing Life's End - Dying Peacefully in One's Sleep

Chapter 257 Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace 14

She generally does things on a whim, doing whatever she feels like.

Upon hearing her answer, Jinzhong fell silent. He didn't ask any further questions, afraid that he wouldn't be able to bear the answer.

The next day, Jinzhong was still somewhat dazed as he stood guard at the entrance of the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Finally, he came to a realization: he would be content if he had the chance to stay by her side and serve her forever.

However, his gaze seemed to pass through the door and reach the Emperor, who was reviewing memorials inside the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

With such abilities, she certainly wouldn't stoop so low as to submit to the emperor!

In Yongshou Palace, Wei Yanwan returned after watching the moon last night and stayed up until the Emperor went to court before finally falling asleep.

She took a nap in the space, and only after she had slept enough did she go to lie on the bed outside and continue to linger in bed.

"Host, you took people to see the moon last night. You've even learned how to be romantic?"

"I've cultivated myself for so many years just so that I can do things according to my own nature."

"That's true. The host can do whatever he wants, and he doesn't even have to complete the side quests."

"Yes, but I usually do it to accumulate more points for future use, and the system also needs to be upgraded."

"Hehe, I knew the host was thinking of me too."

A year later, another concubine was to enter the palace. Before that, Wei Yanwan had already been named Consort Ling and given the surname Wei Jia.

Consort Xian did not receive any further promotion after giving birth to Yongqi.

Consort Chun remained the same as before. The Emperor made an exception and added another Consort position in the palace, so there were now three Consorts who jointly managed the affairs of the harem.

This was considered breaking the rules, and Yongshou Palace became the object of everyone's envy, jealousy, and hatred.

The previous dynasty urged the emperor to appoint an empress, but Wei Yanwan created a celestial phenomenon that led the Imperial Astronomical Bureau to declare that an empress could not be appointed for the time being, otherwise it would be detrimental to the country.

She also created many surprises, such as meteorites falling from the sky, to prove the authenticity of this celestial phenomenon.

From then on, the ministers dared not urge him anymore, and even the emperor dared not gamble, so the empress was never officially appointed.

The Yikun Palace's team includes Consort Chun, and Consort Ying has also entered the palace. Since losing her child, Consort Shu has stopped going out.

Wei Yanwan didn't tell her the truth, after all, she had no grudge against her.

Wei Yanwan lived alone in Yongshou Palace. She didn't like to move around or talk to people.

She usually stayed in Yongshou Palace except when necessary, but the Emperor would visit her often, which made people jealous.

Wei Yanwan said that she is always thinking about the spotlight, and even if she does nothing, people will still remember her.

Consort Yu, who appeared in the drama, has also entered the palace.

Because there was no empress, the imperial harem would gather once a month on the first and fifteenth of the month to talk and discuss matters.

Looking at the new people entering the palace, Wei Yanwan felt nothing; she only felt a stronger urge to leave the palace.

"Host, should we administer medicine to the Emperor?"

"Is this okay?" Wei Yanwan asked.

"No, this is just a fictional world."

"Alright, let's get started. I don't want to waste any more time. Besides, that scumbag dragon is getting old and increasingly senile. It would be better to replace him with someone else as emperor."

"Good host!"

Xiao Qi went to administer medicine to the Emperor, while Wei Yanwan pondered which prince to support on the throne.

She opened the system store and browsed through it until she found a Wise Ruler System.

Wei Yanwan paused, an idea forming in her mind.

"Host, I'm back. The Emperor has at most a year left."

"Okay, is Xiao Qi's Wise Ruler System what I imagined?"

Xiao Qi nodded upon hearing this: "Yes, the host can bind someone, and then that person must be a good emperor."

"I already have someone in mind, but there's still time, so there's no rush."

That day, Anquan rushed in: "Your Majesty, there are rumors circulating about you outside, but the Emperor has suppressed them."

Wei Yanwan was arranging flowers in a vase when she heard this: "Oh? Tell me about it!"

Anquan lowered his head: "Your Majesty..."

"What exactly is the rumor? Tell me!" Chunyu asked anxiously.

"Just say it, I won't blame you!" Wei Yanwan said.

"Yes, rumors are circulating that despite the Empress's favor over the years, she has no children. They say, they say..."

Wei Yanwan retorted, "Saying I'm unlucky, no matter how much favor I receive, is useless?"

Chunyu said, "My lord, they are just jealous of your favor."

"Yes, my lord, please don't take it to heart," Chunlan nodded in agreement.

Wei Yanwan looked at Anquan and said, "You can go down now!"

"Yes, ma'am."

After everyone had left, Wei Yanwan looked at the worried expressions on the two maids' faces and said with a smile, "I don't care about these things, you don't need to worry about me."

"My lord, how about we ask the imperial physician to prescribe some medicine to help with conception?" Chunyu, being straightforward, suggested.

Wei Yanwan smiled and shook her head: "I don't plan to have children!"

"What? Master, why?"

Seeing the surprised looks on their faces, Wei Yanwan said, "My mind is made up, you don't need to persuade me."

"Alright then, we support our master's decision."

"Go and find out where the rumor came from?"

"Yes, this servant will take care of it right away!" Chunlan said, bowed, and turned to leave.

"Host, it was Consort Yu who spread the rumor. She's jealous of your continued favor with the emperor. She's been in the palace for a while now, but she's never been able to compete with you."

Once Chunlan found out the news, Wei Yanwan thought for a moment and then had someone guide Consort Yu to take the medicine in advance to secure the emperor's favor.

After a while, the Emperor indeed visited her more often.

"Chunyu, leak this information and let others expose her, teach her a lesson."

"Yes, this servant will go and have someone do it right away."

After Consort Yu was punished, Wei Yanwan stopped paying attention to her. In the end, she offended Ruyi and caused trouble, and was eventually taken down by the female lead.

When the people of the Han tribe entered the palace, a banquet was held. Wei Yanwan, with the intention of admiring the beauties, went to the banquet.

At the banquet, she picked up her wine glass, took a sip, and then, just like the emperor, leisurely enjoyed the singing and dancing.

"Your Majesty, General Zhao Hui is waiting outside with the Han tribe."

Upon hearing this, Hongli said, "Let them in."

Wei Yanwan put down her wine cup, sat up slightly, and looked towards the direction outside the hall.

Han Xiangjian walked in wearing a veil; her eyes were numb and expressionless.

Upon approaching, the Emperor said, "Take off your veil."

Upon hearing this, she raised her hand and removed her veil, drawing everyone's attention.

The Emperor was stunned. Then he turned his gaze to Wei Yanwan. Both of them were beautiful, but in different ways.

Wei Yanwan also looked at Han Xiangjian with admiration; she was even more beautiful after dancing.

"She really is a beauty. It's a pity that she's being taken advantage of by that scumbag Long. Look at his lewd eyes."

"Host, are you going to help her?"

"No, I'm the villain in this world, and anyway, that trashy dragon doesn't have much time left!"

"That's right, there's less than a year left!"

Jinzhong looked at Wei Yanwan and found that she was watching people dance with great interest and hadn't even noticed his gaze.
