Quick Travel: Passing Through the Bloody World

Pei Yu spent five days in the palace bored. During this time, only the palace maid came to teach her some rules, and at night the palace maids brought her some things to copy.

Not only had he never seen Xue Shenyi, but the old emperor had never even summoned him.

It was not until the fifth day that a nanny came to tell her that the next day was the day when all the concubines in the palace would come to pay him a visit.

"Your Majesty, the concubines from all the palaces have arrived."

Pei Yu nodded: "Let's go."

"Sister, what kind of person do you think the Queen is?" Concubine Zhang asked the people around her in a low voice.

"have no idea."

Liu Qinyue shook her head.

Concubine Li snorted: "Who is she? She is just the daughter of a fifth-rank minister. I don't know how she looks like a fox, and how she can climb over our heads."

Liu Qinyue twisted her handkerchief and said, "Sister, be careful with your words."

"Oh, Concubine Liu is indeed loved by His Majesty. Now she dares to teach me a lesson."

"..."

Liu Qinyue's face turned pale when she heard this.

The other beauties burst into laughter following Concubine Li's words, and Liu Qinyue's face turned even uglier after hearing this.

Pei Yu coughed lightly before stepping into the door, and the noise inside gradually stopped.

"The sisters are chatting happily. I heard it from outside the door."

Liu Qinyue raised her eyes and looked over. The girl was wearing a gorgeous light pink palace dress with auspicious cloud pattern. Her eyebrows and eyes were beautiful and charming. Even with a little makeup, she looked stunning.

She is unlike any other beauties in the palace. Her temperament is more like the snow on the top of the mountain, so outstanding that just looking at her makes people feel ashamed of themselves.

Liu Qinyue didn't know why, but this was clearly a beautiful and delicate face, but she felt in awe for no reason.

When they saw the newcomer, all the women present were startled, then left their seats and bowed.

Liu Qinyue felt her hand getting warm, and a hand gently lifted her up through the sleeve.

She met the pair of eyes in surprise, and her voice trembled, "Empress... Her Majesty."

"If you are not feeling well, don't kneel down."

How does she know?

Liu Qinyue was stunned.

"Thank you, Her Majesty." Liu Qinyue said with tears in her eyes.

When Liu Qinyue stood up, she realized that the queen was much taller than her.

Before she could react, Pei Yu had already walked to the phoenix chair and sat down.

She leaned lazily against the side of the cushion, her eyes moving to the beauties kneeling on the ground.

Pei Yu: "Everyone, please stand up."

Just when everyone was relieved, Pei Yu suddenly pointed at someone and said, "You, keep kneeling."

"?" Concubine Li blinked and looked around to make sure that Pei Yu was pointing at her.

"Kneel down."

Concubine Li's voice was filled with anger: "What does the Queen mean by this? This is only the first time I have met you, why are you targeting me like this?"

"Targeting you?" Pei Yu stroked his chin with his fingertips, and a smile adorned his beautiful eyebrows: "Yes, what's the matter?"

Concubine Li: "..."

She seemed to have not expected that Pei Yu would embarrass her directly when they met for the first time, and her face turned red with anger.

After thinking about it, it could only be that Pei Yu heard what she just said.

Concubine Li forced a smile on her face: "Your Majesty, I just spoke without thinking. Your Majesty is the mother of the country, why do you have to argue with me?"

Pei Yu didn't even bother to raise his eyebrows: "Oh."

Concubine Li: "..."

If it wasn't Pei Yu's first day in the palace, and she wasn't the newly appointed empress by the emperor, I wonder if she would keep this little bitch in line!

Concubine Li thought angrily.

In this first audience, all the concubines present spoke honestly and in a friendly manner. Perhaps they knew that although Pei Yu was young, he was not someone easy to offend, so they all gave up their thoughts.

System [Aren't you asking for trouble by suddenly targeting Concubine Li?]

Pei Yu tapped his fingers on the cushion [I’m afraid she won’t cause trouble for me.]

System [Why?]

"The position of empress had been vacant for a long time, and the emperor suddenly nominated a fifth-rank official from the common people as empress without any selection. Both the court officials and the concubines were eyeing her covetously."

Xue Shenyi leaned on the chaise longue, picked up the teacup, blew a few times to heat it up, and took a sip: "Concubine Li was born in a military family. Her brother Li Guiyi is a general who protects the country. The young queen picked her to show her power to tell the people in the harem that she is not someone who can be easily messed with. Don't offend her."

Zhong Fan understood: "So the Queen is trying to establish her authority!"

Xue Shenyi nodded without saying anything.

However, Zhong Fan was still a little worried: "But Concubine Li is ruthless and cruel, she is not a good person, can the Queen do it?"

"That depends on the ability of the little queen." Xue Shenyi put down the teacup and said.

Zhong Fan: "But she is used by the emperor for good fortune, what if she..."

"If she died early, we could tell His Majesty that the Queen had done a great job in protecting His Majesty and warded off disaster for him."

And if she was lucky enough to live until the emperor's death, she would be buried with the concubines. Then he could use the excuse that the Imperial Observatory had miscalculated the number of women to be married with, and completely destroy its existence.

Therefore, it would be best for the little queen to live to that time so that she can maximize her value.

The smile on Xue Shenyi's lips widened, and half of his face was illuminated by the candlelight, with light and darkness.

Zhong Fan watched and swallowed his saliva, and goose bumps appeared on his back.

Zhang Yin laughed again, and it was quite scary.

...

"Bitch! How dare the daughter of a fifth-rank official challenge me?!"

Concubine Li waved away the tea set on the table and kicked the maid who was kneeling on the ground in fear. The maid rolled on the ground, but then crawled back tremblingly and knelt down again.

Concubine Li pulled up the maid's collar, stared into her eyes and said: "I want to ask you, who is more beautiful, me or that bitch?"

"I... I don't know... I have never seen the Queen!" The maid shook her head in panic.

Concubine Li's face was full of ferocity. She raised her hand and slapped the maid, pointing at the eunuch kneeling on the side: "Tell me, who is more beautiful, me or that bitch?!"

The eunuch knocked his head loudly: "Of course it is Concubine Li. Your Majesty is of noble status and has a stunning appearance. No one can compare to you!"

"Hmph," Concubine Li's ferocious expression eased a little, and she said, "Drag her away and slap her in the face twenty times."

The eunuch responded with sweat on his forehead, raised his hand and pulled the crying maid out.

"etc."

Concubine Li called the eunuch and handed him something: "Give this pearl to Eunuch Li, and tell him that I want to eat purple rice cake."

"yes."

Concubine Li rested her hands on the table, closed her eyes to calm her heartbeat, and when she opened her eyes again, there was malice in her eyes.

Queen...
