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

Chapter 692

"Your Majesty, Consort Pei and Consort De had a dispute in the Imperial Garden today," reported Granny Chen, tiptoeing in.

Yun Xiyue only glances at the account books occasionally. When Granny Chen came in, she was looking at the account books that Qi Yumin had brought.

"Because of what?"

Granny Chen handed her tea. "Your Majesty, it's because of a pot of flowers."

Pei Fang was spoiled and arrogant, and the Empress Dowager doted on her, so even though she was demoted, she remained the same.

During the hunting competition, she approached the emperor even though she was still unwell, but the emperor completely ignored her.

And now that he's back in the palace, he's started acting up again.

What kind of flower is it?

"The purple chrysanthemums that were just presented as tribute, isn't it autumn now?"

When chrysanthemums bloom, all kinds of precious chrysanthemums are sent to the palace.

With new flowers blooming in the Imperial Garden, all the ladies-in-waiting will come out to admire the chrysanthemums.

Pei Fang seized the opportunity to make trouble for Qi Yumin.

"They even hit Consort De."

Yun Xiyue chuckled, "Then how did Consort De handle it?"

"First, she pretended to be weak, then dragged it out until the Emperor happened to pass by and saw it, then reprimanded Consort Pei and punished her by confining her to her quarters."

Qi Yumin's cunning and methods have improved considerably, so Yun Xiyue doesn't need to worry about her.

"Ah."

Granny Chen simply gave a brief report; Yun Xiyue didn't need to do anything. She just had some ointment delivered to Yongning Palace.

A while later, Murong Yu arrived.

"Ah Yue, it's getting cold, we need to prepare a heater."

Yun Xiyue's belly was slightly protruding, probably because of the twins, making it appear a little larger than that of a typical pregnant woman.

"It's alright, it's not very cold."

"It's only August or September! My older brother and the others are going back..."

"Here it comes. The matter in Jiangnan must be settled!"

Murong Yu's eyes were full of smiles. "Yes, Pei Shang and Yun Xiaohan are quite capable."

"I want to promote Yun Xiaohan to the Ministry of Revenue."

Yun Xiyue's eyes lit up; she thought this was a great idea!

The Yun family can gradually embark on a path to officialdom.

This will also help the future development of cloud computing.

"Yes, if Your Majesty thinks it's acceptable, then it is."

Murong Yu poked her cheek, "When did A-Yue become so obedient!"

"I've always been this obedient!"

Murong Yu chuckled softly, "Mmm." As he spoke, he lowered his head and kissed her.

They haven't been intimate with each other for more than two months.

Yunxi Yue could sense the changes in his body.

"emperor......"

"Hmm. I don't need to do anything, just holding you like this makes me feel comfortable."

Yun Xiyue's cheeks flushed slightly, and she didn't dare to move, lest she make him feel even worse.

"I have already investigated, and your elder brother is indeed Xiao Si's son."

He told her about the young romantic experiences of Lord Wan and Master Xiao.

"So that's how it is. So Jiaojiao and her older brother are cousins."

"Ah."

But it cannot be made public.

Revealing their identities is not a good thing for them either, and Wan Jiaojiao is not having an easy time now either.

Xu Yan is dead.

Zhou Xushi couldn't accept the blow and hated Wan Jiaojiao to death. Regardless of whether her son agreed to return to the capital, she promoted four maids to be her concubines and stuffed them into Zhou Yan's room.

Wan Jiaojiao was already in a bad mood, and this incident made her furious. She had the four maids beaten to death that very day.
