Chapter 667

If she were punished for offending Yun Xiyue, the Empress Dowager would definitely protect her, since Consort Qi is now a "favored concubine".

They are still the Empress Dowager's people. If we show favoritism, it might cause resentment in the Qi family.

Consort Qi's brother and mother both came to the palace today!

Yunxi Yue punished Consort Pei.

The Empress Dowager, on the contrary, felt that she had solved a problem for herself. If she were to punish the Qi family too leniently, the Qi family would certainly not be able to get away with it.

"Look, the Empress has already punished the Consort."

"I will teach her a lesson later. They are sisters, so don't be too petty."

Lady Qi smiled and said, "The Empress Dowager is right. I only hope that the Noble Consort and the Consort De can support each other like sisters and not have any conflicts that would damage their relationship. Wouldn't that play right into someone else's hands?"

The Empress Dowager agreed, saying that the Emperor had finally begun to favor other concubines.

He was bullied by the imperial concubine because he was favored.

Who would dare to compete for favor with that person who has a lower score?

If no one vies for the emperor's favor, the empress will hold absolute power in the harem. If she gives birth to a prince, he will surely be even more favored.

The imperial harem cannot be stagnant, otherwise things will go wrong.

Madam Qi sat for a while before coming to see her daughter.

"Minmin."

Qi Yumin hadn't been home for a long time and missed them very much.

"Fangfang didn't do it on purpose, so please forgive her. If the Emperor comes to see you later, remember to tell him that the Empress's punishment was too harsh."

Qi Yumin was taken aback, "Mother..."

"Silly child, you don't understand. Don't ask anything else, just do what your mother says."

Qi Yuyan couldn't help but say, "By instigating Minmin like this, you're harming her."

My mother always taught my younger sister this way.

That's why she has a spoiled and impulsive personality.

If it weren't for Yun Xiyue, I'm afraid my sister would never have changed and would have soon become cannon fodder in the power struggles of the harem.

"Shut up! Didn't you leave the Qi family? You don't need to worry about the Qi family's affairs now." Madam Qi held a grudge against Yun Xiyue. If it weren't for her, her son wouldn't have run away from home.

"I'm talking about Minmin. The inner palace isn't necessarily outside. Pei Fang is the Empress Dowager's own niece, and even if Minmin is a close relative, she still has a courtesy name!"

Qi Yumin's current opportunity to be promoted to Consort De is due to her allegiance to Yun Xiyue, not because of the Empress Dowager.

The Empress Dowager only knows how to use others to pave the way for Pei Fang.

Qi Yuyan felt she couldn't reason with her mother, "Minmin, don't listen to her. From now on, listen to the Emperor and Empress in the palace."

Madam Qi was furious and stood up to argue with him.

"mother!"

Qi Yumin quickly intervened and tried to calm her down.

At that moment, the Emperor indeed arrived.

"I, my concubine, see you, Your Majesty."

Murong Yu glanced at the Qi family mother and son, "Did I disturb your reunion?"

"No, no, Your Majesty... Minmin has been wronged, but Consort Gui is Consort De's cousin. I hope Your Majesty can be lenient with Consort Gui."

Qi Yuyan hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, my mother and I will not disturb you and the Empress's rest."

He then pulled his mother away.

Qi Yumin broke out in a cold sweat and knelt down, saying, "Your Majesty, my mother just didn't want to upset the Empress Dowager, after all, the Imperial Concubine is the Empress Dowager's own niece."

"Get up!"

Murong Yu knew what the Empress Dowager was thinking and did not blame her. "This is the medicine that A-Yue gave you. You should rest well. I'll go back first."

"Your Majesty, I thank you for your great kindness." Qi Yumin accepted the ointment and expressed her gratitude. When she looked up again, the man was no longer there.

She collapsed to the ground.

"Mother, what's wrong with you?"

Qi Yumin was terrified, fearing that the emperor would suspect her of disloyalty.
