After Cao Qinmo returned to the palace, she went to Yiku Palace every day to serve the ill Concubine Hua.

Concubine Hua was unable to get up to perform the enthronement ceremony, so the emperor asked the empress to come to the Yiku Palace to perform the ceremony.

The queen was dissatisfied, but happily went to Yikun Palace.

Even though Concubine Hua holds a high position now, she is no longer a threat. Concubine Hua, who is ill in bed, is unable to control the palace power, and the power of the palace is back in the hands of the Queen.

The emperor often visited Concubine Hua, and often saw Cao Qinmo taking care of Nian Shilan meticulously.

Thinking that the Queen's family had become the most powerful in the harem recently, the Emperor promoted Jingpin to Jingfei.

The emperor also praised Cao Qinmo for her loyalty and righteousness, promoted her to the position of concubine, and granted her the main hall of Chuxiu Palace to live in.

It only took Cao Qinmo half a year to go from being a noble lady to a concubine.

The ceremony for conferring the title of imperial concubine to Cao Qinmo was held on the same day as that for Concubine Jing, and was scheduled to be held one month later.

The Queen was naturally wary of Cao Qinmo, but Cao Qinmo only gave birth to a daughter, had no family background and was not favored, and the Concubine Hua behind her was now useless.

The Queen then turned her attention to Concubine Jing, who had shared the palace power. After being punished by the Queen, Concubine Jing secretly handed the palace power back to the Queen.

The Nian family sent a lot of precious medicinal herbs, and Concubine Hua Nian Shilan had to take care of it for half a year before she could get out of bed.

Nian Shilan's health was completely deteriorating. She was as sickly as Concubine Duan used to be and could barely walk a few steps.

At this time, Concubine Zhuang, Fu Cha, found out that she was pregnant.

The queen began to plan for an abortion, and Cao Qinmo touched her belly.

After moving into Chuxiu Palace, Cao Qinmo began to recuperate.

In the past, Cao Qinmo and Wen Yi had used some pregnancy-maintaining medicine, and had also been smelling Huanyi incense for a long time, which had damaged their health.

Cao Qinmo was a little anxious, as the current situation was suitable for her to have another baby.

Cao Qinmo used the truth about Zhen Huan's murder to deceive Wen Shichu and asked Wen Shichu to prescribe some recuperation medicine.

Wen Shichu, Zhen Huan's personal imperial physician, is quite useful. After Wen Shichu prescribed a few medicines, Cao Qinmo's health was almost recovered.

On the day of the flower-viewing banquet, the Queen felt very proud because Concubine Hua did not come.

Everybody praised the peony for its beauty and fragrance, and complimented the empress on her graceful and elegant appearance.

The queen still had her usual smile on her face, but it was a little more sincere.

After admiring the flowers, Concubine Qi brought out the black cat Songzi.

Following the smell, Songzi pounced on Concubine Zhuang Fucha, and Concubine Jing was pushed by someone and was about to bump into Concubine Zhuang.

Concubine Jing struggled to twist her body, and with a snap her waist broke, and she was able to escape from Concubine Zhuang.

Concubine Jing held her waist and screamed, and then Concubine Zhuang started screaming.

When everyone looked over, they saw that Concubine Zhuang was already bleeding from her body.

The emperor and the imperial physician arrived quickly. While everyone was visiting Concubine Zhuang, Cao Qinmo pretended to faint from the blood.

After the imperial physician took Concubine Zhuang's pulse, he replied with regret: "Your Majesty, Empress Dowager, the Concubine has had a miscarriage."

The emperor was very angry. After ascending the throne for several years, except for Princess Wen Yi, no other children were born.

Then, Doctor Wen took Cao Qinmo's pulse and said, "Madam Yu is one month pregnant."

The emperor's eyes lit up, and he ordered, "Help Concubine Yu onto the dragon chariot quickly."

A hint of hatred flashed across the queen's eyes, but she quickly returned to her normal expression and said, "Sister Yupin is very fertile."

The emperor and the empress sent Cao Qinmo back to Chuxiu Palace together. Cao Qinmo did not wake up after being put on the bed.

The emperor looked at Cao Qinmo for a while, then came out of the inner room and became furious when he saw the furnishings in the main hall.

The emperor had clearly been here before and visited Princess Wen Yi several times a month.

I couldn’t see the simplicity before, but today I have opened my eyes.
