A Crossover of Film and Television: Miao Miao's Life Transmigration

"Your Majesty, the Emperor has left." Banqing looked at Su Yunyi with a puzzled expression.

"Your Majesty, why did you say you had a hemorrhage?" Moreover, Banqing was also puzzled, as Consort Yi had not drunk the soup that had been laced with drugs.

"Alright, I'm tired. Banlan, you can finish the rest. Also, wet nurse, remember to administer the medicine. I'll rest for a bit." Su Yunyi closed her eyes to rest.

Su Yunyi was, of course, scheming. After the Ulanara and Uya clans attacked her like that, she prepared a big gift for the Empress Dowager, intending to severely damage the Uya clan. Otherwise, she would always be cleaning up after Yixiu, making it difficult for the Empress Dowager to find evidence, which was really unbearable.

She used clues to make the Emperor suspicious of the Imperial Household Department, and then, through her connections over the past six months, she exposed the corruption within the department to the Emperor. She didn't believe the Emperor wouldn't punish the people in the Imperial Household Department. After all, the Uya clan was the Empress Dowager's maternal family, and relying on the Empress Dowager's domineering ways, they were responsible for more than half of the corruption in the Imperial Household Department.

Let's teach the Empress Dowager a small lesson first, so she won't think we're easy to bully.

Following Su Yunyi's clues, Gao Wuyong did not find the person who drugged him, but he did find out about the corruption in the Imperial Household Department.

Gao Wuyong, as expected, dared not make a decision on his own and immediately reported to the Emperor.

Gao Wuyong lowered his head and knelt before the throne, not daring to utter a word.

The emperor remained silent, then suddenly swept everything off the table, his face contorted with rage. He had only been on the throne for less than two years, and yet such a major incident had occurred.

On the paper placed on the table were written accusations of corruption within the Imperial Household Department, including embezzlement of public funds, withholding tribute items, and substituting inferior goods for superior ones…

Furthermore, prices at the Imperial Household Department were dozens of times higher than outside.

Immediately, the emperor summoned his trusted relatives and princes to the palace that very night.

The imperial relatives and princes quietly entered the palace overnight, and the Hall of Mental Cultivation was closed all night. In the end, Prince Yi led troops to capture the group of bondservants, and Prince Guo was responsible for verifying the evidence.

Because the news was so urgent, the Bao Yi family received no information whatsoever and had no time to cover it up.

Subsequently, one after another, families of bondservantes were raided and exiled, with the most severely punished being beheaded and their heads displayed in public.

Even the Empress Dowager's maternal family, the Uya clan, was not spared. Now, out of respect for the Empress Dowager, all members of the Uya clan have been imprisoned to await their fate.

Upon receiving the news, the Empress Dowager rushed to the Hall of Mental Cultivation to plead for mercy. At this time, the Emperor was in a fit of anger, and coupled with the existing conflict between the mother and son, the two broke down in their conversation, and the sound of their argument could be heard from the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

When the Empress Dowager returned to Shou Kang Palace, she summoned the imperial physicians.

The Imperial Household Department is extremely busy right now because many people's homes have been confiscated, and there are already not enough people. In addition, they have to prepare the full moon celebrations for the Seventh Prince, the Eighth Prince, and the Fifth Princess, as well as the investiture ceremony for the Imperial Noble Consort Yi. The new staff members need to adapt and be trained, so the Imperial Household Department has been extremely busy these past few days.

Su Yunyi also seized this opportunity to place her people in various parts of the harem, after all, she couldn't be deaf.

The Emperor had stopped writing, but after only a few days, he became busy again. Coupled with matters concerning the Imperial Household Department, he was in a bad mood and had not visited the inner palace recently.

A month passed quickly, and the Emperor only re-entered the inner palace after the full-moon banquets for the Seventh Prince, the Eighth Prince, and the Fifth Princess.

The Imperial Noble Consort Yi, dressed in her auspicious robes, knelt before the emperor, listening to the imperial edict: "By the grace of Heaven, the Emperor decrees: 'Consort Yi, of the Sujia clan, is of gentle and virtuous character… By the Empress Dowager's benevolent decree, Consort Yi is hereby promoted to Imperial Noble Consort Yi. This is an imperial decree.'"

"Thank you Lord for your grace!"

Su Yunyi stood up, accepted the imperial edict, and realized that she had completed most of her mission.

After the investiture ceremony, Su Yunyi continued to live a secluded life, as she appeared to be unwell.

Another day of paying respects. This was Su Yunyi's first time paying respects since she finished her postpartum confinement. In the recent period, the Empress was busy with New Year's Eve and the New Year's celebrations, as well as the affairs of the Imperial Household Department. The Emperor had confiscated the property of many bondservant families, so Yixiu exempted the harem from paying respects.

Su Yunyi certainly couldn't let others look down on her. She was now a Noble Consort, and she couldn't afford to lose face.

That day, Su Yunyi wore a fuchsia Shu embroidery dress with dark blue bamboo embroidered on it. Unlike her usual plain colors, the highly saturated colors of the cheongsam made her look imposing.

Her hairpins were also adorned with ornate accessories, and she wore a jade bracelet that the emperor had just bestowed upon her.

Su Yunyi walked in from outside; most of the people from the harem had already arrived.

The person sitting in the chair quickly stood up: "Greetings to the Noble Consort Yi!"

Su Yunyi walked directly to the first chair on the left and sat down. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw the complicated looks in the eyes of Consort Qi, Consort Li, Noble Lady Cao, Noble Lady Shen, and others. She liked the way they couldn't stand her but couldn't do anything about it.

"Get up!"

Consort Qi, Yixiu's lackey, saw Su Yunyi's undiminished beauty and said jealously, "Sister, it's been a long time since you came to pay your respects to the Empress."

Su Yunyi raised her eyes: "His Majesty has exempted me from paying my respects. Does this mean that Consort Qi is dissatisfied with His Majesty?"

Consort Qi immediately fell silent; she dared not go against the Emperor.

A few minutes later, Consort Hua also walked in.

"Greetings to Concubine Hua!"

Nian Shilan sat down in the first chair on the right, glanced up and saw Su Yunyi, rolled her eyes. She was naturally unwilling to accept that the other had become a Noble Consort, but unfortunately, she had ruined her health when she was pregnant with Mo Yaqi and could no longer give birth.

"Get up!"

Yixiu had already prepared in the inner room, but since it was her first time paying respects to the emperor at the beginning of the year, she didn't want to wait for Consort Hua and Consort Yi, so she waited for them in the inner room and listened to what they were talking about.

Yixiu came out from the inner room and asked gently, "Sisters, how have you been lately?"

"Greetings, Your Majesty the Empress! May Your Majesty be well! Your humble servant is well."

Yi Xiu: "Get up, what are the sisters talking about?"

Consort Qi: "Your Majesty, let's chat while we're at it."

Yixiu: "At the beginning of the year, Consort Yi gave birth to triplets prematurely. This is an auspicious sign for the new year. The Emperor and I have promoted Consort Yi to the rank of Noble Consort. You should also hurry up and produce offspring for the Emperor as soon as possible. When the time comes, whether it is a promotion or a reward, I will tell the Emperor that everything will be there."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Nian Shilan: "What, has Consort Yi recovered?"

Su Yunyi touched the nail guards on her hands: "I don't care about Consort Hua's concern. Consort Hua should spend more time caring about Mo Yaqi. Mo Yaqi has already called for the imperial physician three times at the beginning of the year. It seems that Consort Hua doesn't care much about Mo Yaqi."

Consort Qi retorted defiantly, "That's right. Consort Hua should spend more time caring for Moyaqi. Speaking of raising children, my Third Prince is very healthy and has hardly ever been sick since he was a child."

Nian Shilan immediately exploded: "It's better to raise children who are intelligent. The Third Prince is stupid and dull. It would be better not to raise him at all. I heard that he is not even as good as the Sixth Prince in the Imperial Study."

Consort Qi was speechless after being rebuked: "You!"

Yixiu's expression immediately changed: "Consort Hua, whether it is a prince or a princess, they are all the emperor's sons and grandsons."

Consort Hua glanced disdainfully at Consort Qi, sneered, and stood up directly: "This concubine is not feeling well, so I will take my leave first."

The crowd exchanged glances, understanding Hua Fei's personality.

Yi Xiu was embarrassed. She hadn't expected Consort Hua to be so arrogant and domineering on the first day of the new year. Looking at the people below, she said, "Everyone, if you have nothing else to say, then disperse!"

"Yes!"

Upon hearing this, Su Yunyi immediately stood up and went out; no one else dared to walk in front of her.

Shen Meizhuang glanced at An Lingrong: "Lingrong, I'm going to Suiyu Pavilion to see Huan'er, do you want to come with me?"

An Lingrong nodded: "Sister Mei, I was just about to go see you, let's go together."

Broken Yuxuan.

Shen Meizhuang exclaimed, "Huan'er, I met Consort Yi today. She is indeed stunningly beautiful and has an imposing presence that cannot be underestimated. Even Consort Hua would have to admit defeat."

Zhen Huan thought for a moment and realized that this was Consort Yi, who had not shown herself when she first entered the palace, but was now Noble Consort Yi: "Sister Mei, don't underestimate yourself. You are not bad either. Besides, relying on your looks to win people's favor is not sustainable. Sister Mei is talented and will surely win the Emperor's favor."
