Demoted from wife to concubine? Reborn, the mistress of a noble family plots another high-status mar

Chapter 557

He can be described as self-taught.

"Well, thank you."

"I don't have anything of value, so please accept this jade pendant. If you need it in the future, just come to me with this jade pendant."

"Consider this a return gift for saving me back then."

Yun Xiyue held the heavy jade pendant, unsure how to refuse.

He has already left.

"Why would she want his jade pendant?" Murong Yu heard about it and came to see, but Mo Ye had already left, and he only saw her holding the jade pendant in a daze.

The fact that the jade pendant is a man's item tells us it belongs to Mo Ye.

"Your Majesty, the prince and I are friends. Please don't misunderstand."

Murong Yu snorted, "You treat him as a friend, but that's not what he really thinks."

Seeing that he was getting excited, Yun Xiyue laughed and said, "With so many people who like the Emperor, there must be several women in the harem."

"You even gave me a formal title, and I didn't hold it against you. Can't I just have one more friend who likes me?"

Murong Yu's eyes brightened slightly; it was rare for her to be jealous. "A-Yue, don't be angry. My body and soul belong to you."

After taking a concubine, she remained very indifferent.

He felt that she didn't care about him at all.

"These women are just decorations. If you don't like them, I will send them all out of the palace."

Yun Xiyue said, "Don't be silly, doing this will lead to very troublesome consequences."

“A-Yue…” Murong Yu felt ashamed. He said he wouldn’t let her get hurt or feel wronged, but he always felt that she had silently endured a lot.

“I know that His Majesty is also under great pressure.”

“It’s okay. We’re husband and wife. As long as we both understand that we are only one person, then other intruders can’t be a threat to me.”

"Can you please stop worrying about Mo Ye's matter?"

Yun Xiyue felt that she could face his taking a concubine so calmly because she understood that he only had eyes for her.

"Yes, what bothers me is the absence of Mo Ye."

Eunuch Fu stood to the side, thinking to himself, remaining silent, but secretly glancing at the emperor whose eyes were now gentle.

I just felt that the emperor was really two-faced; he wouldn't hold back his anger in front of his ministers.

But they didn't dare utter a single word in front of the Empress.

"The concubines in the harem have been much more well-behaved lately."

"Ah."

The Empress Dowager was unwell.

Yun Xiyue suggested that they go together to pay their respects to her.

Murong Yu didn't want to go, but considering that she would be spending more time with the Empress Dowager in the palace in the future, she couldn't let things remain so awkward.

The two arrived at Funing Palace together.

Pei Fang, Zeng Rou, and Jiang Sijin were all there, and they were all very filial, coming to pay their respects every day.

Yun Xiyue and Murong Yu were both too busy.

The two rarely came to pay their respects.

The Empress Dowager, who had been all smiles, stopped smiling when she saw Yun Xiyue enter, and her hostility became very obvious.

Upon seeing this, Murong Yu's face darkened, and he wanted to turn around and leave with Yun Xiyue.

"Mother."

After everyone stood up and bowed to them.

Yunxi Yue also paid her respects to the Empress Dowager.

"Yes, Your Majesty has been working hard lately. I heard you've taken over the Phoenix Seal?"

Yun Xiyue smiled and said, "Yes, as the principal wife of the harem, I should manage the harem well and share the Emperor's burdens."

"Yes, Not Bad."

The Empress Dowager glanced at her indifferently, "I've noticed you've lost weight lately. Is it too much for you to manage the harem all by yourself? If you're feeling tired, then let the Noble Consort and the Consort Shu help you."

"Your subject is not tired," Yun Xiyue said, pretending not to understand.

Murong Yu felt sorry for her and wanted to find someone to help her.

But if she says no, it's not good to contradict her.

"The Empress is amazing. She manages the harem all by herself, and I heard she also does business, and she also has to serve the Emperor."

"Can you handle this?" Pei Fang's eyes were filled with jealousy, and her words were sarcastic.
