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

Following Zhen Huan's instructions, Qingying went to Jingren Palace to find Ulanara. Ulanara would never let Qingying die, after all, Qingying still had two daughters and could get pregnant again. After giving birth to a prince, Ulanara could regain her former glory.

When Ulanara thought of Zhen Huan's early visit to Jingren Palace, she said that only one Ulanara was allowed in the palace.

Ulanara looked at Qingying and said, word by word, "Qingying, you must watch me die, to prove that I was not forced to commit suicide, but died in anger and resentment, and that I have no one to blame but myself."

"You still have two children. You must conceive a prince to restore the glory of the Ulanara clan. Don't blame Zhen Huan. Sometimes you have to use Zhen Huan to ascend to the position of Empress."

Qingying, with tears streaming down her face, didn't know what to do. She stared at the bleeding Ulanara and kept nodding.

The next day, when the court learned of Empress Ulanara's death, they suspected that Zhen Huan had been responsible, and various factions in the court made a big fuss about it.

Now, only the primary consort, Fucha Langhua, has entered the inner palace to handle official business, while the other women, apart from mourning, remain quietly in Prince Bao's residence.

Because of the funeral, Su Luyun could not play the zither or dance. Now she could only copy books and paint, living a quiet and peaceful life. As for thinking about Hongli, sorry, Su Luyun couldn't remember it at all.

News came from the mansion that Ulanara had died, forced to her death by the current Zhen Huan.

The Emperor's attempt to establish Ulanara as a rival to Zhen Huan is now futile. Those who support the legitimate Ulanara clan have begun to submit memorials accusing Zhen Huan of eating meat during her mourning period and demanding that she be punished.

The Emperor is holding back his actions and intends to suppress Zhen Huan's influence in the previous dynasty. The most important thing now is to complete his ascension to the throne, and the Imperial Household Department has already begun preparations for it.

He also ordered the Imperial Household Department to slowly repair the Cining Palace, thus delaying the matter of Zhen Huan being made Empress Dowager, and to deal with the matter of Zhen Huan being made Empress Dowager after the affairs of the previous court were settled.

In Zhuxi Garden.

Xiao Linzi hurriedly walked in, bowed, and walked to Su Luyun's side, saying, "Princess, the Empress Dowager has ordered Qingying to observe three years of mourning for Ulanara at the mansion."

Su Luyun looked at Chen Wanyin and teased, "This is a power struggle between the Empress Dowager and the Emperor, and between the Emperor and his faction. It's best for us women not to get involved."

Chen Wanyin said gently, "Sister is right. I will just stay quietly with you in the mansion."

At this point, Chen Wanyin looked at Su Luyun with concern and said, "I just don't know when we'll be able to enter the Forbidden City?"

Su Luyun seemed to have thought of something, her eyes dimmed, and she murmured: "The Forbidden City? The Imperial Palace? High walls, prosperity is all superficial. Without freedom, it's nothing."

After speaking, Su Luyun realized that her words were inappropriate and quickly said, "This is something that His Majesty should consider."

The women in the mansion longed day and night to enter the palace and become empresses.

The emperor in the Hall of Mental Cultivation became even more agitated. The empress dowager, in alliance with the previous court, put pressure on him and ordered Qingying to observe mourning at her residence for three years.

The Emperor no longer cares about Qingying or anything like that; he just misses Su Luyun.

However, since Consorts Gao Xiyue and Qingying have not yet entered the harem, if Su Luyun were to be brought into the harem, wouldn't that be putting her in the open and being too conspicuous for Su Luyun?

Su Luyun, that little girl, I hate anyone who causes her trouble. But right now, Su Luyun should be leisurely drinking tea and painting in Zhuxi Garden.

The emperor was somewhat envious of Su Luyun, who was able to be herself. He was the emperor, and he had not yet regained his power. He was surrounded by people who opposed him, and he was always dealing with annoying things.

After pondering for a while, the emperor resumed dealing with official business.

Su Luyun was carefree and indulged in eating and drinking every day, completely different from the women in the mansion.

In Fuyingyuan, Qingying looked sadly out the window. Her aunt had passed away, and her words to her had left her with many feelings.

Hailan couldn't bear to see Qingying sad, so she quickly said, "Sister, the Emperor cares about you. Look, the Empress Dowager has ordered you to observe three years of mourning, and the Emperor hasn't allowed the Empress Dowager to move into Cining Palace."

Qingying's heart warmed, and a shy expression appeared on her face. She thought to herself: Before, she thought her young man had changed his mind, but now he still has her.

Qingying retorted, "How dare we discuss what the Emperor does?"

Although Qingying verbally refuted, her face showed joy, indicating that she agreed with what Hailan said.

Qingying then said, "No, I can't put the Emperor in a difficult position. Hailan, you have to help me. I want to go to the palace to see the Emperor. The Emperor can't be put in a difficult position in front of me and the Empress Dowager."

Hailan, a staunch supporter of Qingying, said, "Sister, do whatever you want to do, Hailan will definitely help you!"

The next morning, when the Imperial Household Department went out to make purchases, Qingying used her connections with the Ulanara family to disguise herself as a palace maid and enter the palace.

After the Emperor finished his court session, Qingying hurriedly went to the Hall of Mental Cultivation to see him.

The Emperor was standing at his desk, processing the memorials he had received. Before he could even approve a few, Wang Qin trotted in and said, "Your Majesty, Consort Qing is requesting an audience outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation."

The Emperor froze, stopped writing, and looked up sharply, exclaiming, "Who? Qingying?"

Wang Qin respectfully replied, "Yes, Your Majesty, Consort Qing is requesting an audience outside the palace."

The Emperor pondered for a moment, then waved his hand, signaling Wang Qin to bring Qingying in.

As soon as Qingying entered, she cried out, "Hongli, I've finally seen you!"

When the Emperor heard Qingying call his real name, a dark light flashed in his eyes, but thinking of their past relationship, he said nothing, though his expression turned much colder.

Qingying spoke at length with the Emperor, ultimately advising him to reconcile with the Empress Dowager and not to fall out with her for her sake.

The Emperor had no idea what Qingying was talking about. His relationship with the Empress Dowager was far more complicated. The Empress Dowager had joined forces with officials from the previous court to put pressure on him, and he had only retaliated. Now Qingying was saying it was for her sake, and the Emperor really didn't know that Qingying was so shallow.

The Emperor interrupted Qingying and scolded, "That's enough. These matters are not for you to concern yourself with. You stay quietly in your residence and wait for me to finish dealing with them before bringing you to the palace."

Upon hearing the Emperor's words, Qingying felt that her young man was thinking of her and was able to make decisions for her. She didn't even hear the word "you" and happily returned to her residence.
