The secrets of the government behind the scenes are revealed, and all the villains are on their knee

"From today on, go to the Jingxin Hall to copy Buddhist scriptures and reflect on yourself."

No one had ever seen the Empress Dowager being so strict with Concubine Chan, so no one dared to speak out.

Princess Chan was dragged to Jingxin Hall. When she passed by Lin You, her eyes were filled with hatred.

Lin You must have given his aunt some kind of drug, otherwise his aunt wouldn't have treated her like this.

No, it should be said that she had drugged the entire court, otherwise, how could she, a mere imperial concubine, convince the emperor and his ministers to rule the country from behind the curtain!

Witch!

"Sister, your skirt is torn. Go change it into a new one quickly and I'll help you repair it." Concubine Xian bent down considerately to check the hem of Lin You's skirt.

[Ah, I didn't expect there is such a good one in the harem. She is indeed a virtuous concubine. ]

After she changed her skirt and came out, all the concubines had left, leaving only Concubine Xian waiting for her.

"Sister, please give the skirt to my younger sister." Concubine Xian stepped forward.

Lin You was slightly startled [No, you really want to repair it?]

"Noble Concubine You, give it to Concubine Xian. She is very skillful and might be able to make your skirt even more beautiful."

Just as I was hesitating, the Queen Mother said this.

"Then I'll trouble you, sister."

Since the Empress Dowager could give such a high evaluation, it must mean that Concubine Xian’s cooking skills are really good. She is a little looking forward to it.

"Her Majesty, the Princess is here."

A palace maid came in to report.

The virtuous concubine left wisely, and Lin You also wanted to leave so that she could go back to eat. But just as she was about to move away, the Queen Mother's voice fell into her ears, "Noble Concubine You, you stay."

[Nima, why are you keeping me here? ]

[System, are you sure this old woman is not in love with me? Otherwise, why would she leave me alone? Moreover, since I entered the door, her eyes have never left me, except when she was scolding Concubine Chan.]

The eldest princess paused as she took a step into the door.

How bold Concubine You is! How dare you call my mother like this?

Shen Yuning raised his eyes and glanced at Lin You, only to see that he was eating cakes in big mouthfuls and didn't say a word.

This……

Could it be that what she just heard was Lin You’s inner voice?

"Ning'er."

The Queen Mother called the eldest princess over, took her hand, patted it, and winked at her.

The Queen Mother was telling her not to panic.

[Fuck, this eldest princess is so beautiful, her natural fairy-like temperament is simply amazing. ]

Everyone likes to be praised, and the eldest princess is no exception. The eldest princess, who has been spoiled since childhood, has heard countless compliments, but this is the first time she has heard someone praise her from the bottom of their hearts, and it was such a high praise as a fairy.

It seems that Concubine You is not as bad as everyone says. In her opinion, Concubine You is really pure.

[It’s just that melancholy between the eyebrows…]

[Alas, poor fairy, what a tragic ending, she was actually harmed by the person next to her. ]

Shen Yuning and the Queen Mother were slightly shocked.

Being betrayed by the person next to you?

What nonsense is Concubine You talking about!

Shen Yuning was full of disbelief.

She and Wen Lang had been married for five years and lived in perfect harmony. Even though she had not given birth to a child for so many years, Wen Lang never blamed her. Instead, he blamed himself for not doing well enough. He took good care of her every day and even personally watched the servants making medicine for fear that anything might go wrong.

Shen Yuning didn't believe it, but the Queen Mother was convinced. Her heart was in a knot. She stared at Lin You, feeling extremely anxious.

Keep talking, keep talking, how did the prince consort harm Yu Ning?

"Ahem-"

Lin You was unexpectedly met with the Queen Mother's murderous gaze, and was so frightened that the pastry in his mouth got stuck in his throat.

"Ahem-"

"Quick, pour tea for Concubine You!"

Now it was the Queen Mother's turn to be frightened. She quickly stood up and asked the palace maid to pour tea for Lin You.

The eldest princess walked over and patted Lin You on the back.

Lin You, who gulped down several sips of tea, finally recovered. He looked up and saw Shen Yuning's beautiful face. From such a close distance, there were only two words to describe her: [Perfect.]

"Thank you for your help, Princess."

While Lin You was being infatuated, he did not forget to speak.

Shen Yuning smiled and shook his head, "No problem."

"Really? No one's competing with you for the food, why are you eating so voraciously?" The Queen Mother scolded with lingering fear.

Lin You is now a treasure in her heart, and it is impossible for anything to happen to him.

Lin You curled her lips, [I haven’t had breakfast yet! ]

[Oh, I don’t know if the dog emperor will let her eat when she returns. Otherwise, I might as well go to the imperial kitchen and eat secretly.]

Hearing her inner voice, the eldest princess frowned.

How could my royal brother treat Concubine You like this?

[Hey, she needs to catch up on some sleep after eating. She slept on the cold floor last night and now her whole body aches. Her eyelids are so heavy that she can hardly open them.]

What? They even let Concubine You sleep on the floor!

Your Majesty, this is too much of a mischief and too bad.

There is absolutely no gentlemanly manners at all.

When he gets better, she, as his royal sister, will definitely go and give him some proper instruction.

The Queen Mother said, "Ahem, Yuning, are you ready for breakfast?"

"Not yet." Yu Ning responded calmly.

"Well, it just so happens that I haven't used it yet, so let's go together."

Lin You [Wow, the people of the imperial family are really heartless. They didn’t even invite her to dinner! ]

"Princess You, what about you?"

The Queen Mother's words were like an angel descending upon her. Lin You hurriedly shook her head, deeply moved. [God, I take back what I just said.]

The Queen Mother was trying not to laugh.

He really has the mind of a child.

At the dinner table, Lin You was concentrating on eating, not caring about his image while eating, which made the two of them stunned.

Alas, poor Imperial Concubine You, she was tortured so miserably by her own imperial brother.

The more the princess looked at Lin You, the more she felt sorry for him. "The palace will hold a gourmet banquet in a few days. If you are free, you can come and taste it."

A gourmet feast?

In her previous life, Lin You had a bad stomach. She always had diarrhea after eating anything and had to abstain from food all her life. Now that she had a good stomach after traveling through time, she naturally wanted to enjoy it and nodded immediately.

[But, the dog emperor...]

Lin You got a headache whenever he thought of Shen Jingan.

As a concubine in the harem, I cannot leave the palace at will. The last time I was allowed was because it was my grandmother’s birthday and the circumstances were quite special.

The Queen Mother and the Princess listened to her sorrowful voice and looked at each other silently.

"Yu Ning, you are becoming more and more outrageous. How can the concubines in the harem leave the palace at will?" The Queen Mother frowned.

"But mother, when father was alive, didn't he give you a pardon token that allowed you to leave the palace at will?" Shen Yuning said weakly.

Lin You's ears twitched, [System, there is such a thing?]

[Yes, host. The late emperor was raised outside the palace when he was young. He and the queen mother were childhood sweethearts. The two had a deep relationship. Even after entering the palace and ascending the throne, the late emperor still doted on the queen mother. Knowing that the queen mother yearned for freedom, he gave her a pardon token, allowing her to enter and leave the palace freely.]

[However, the Queen Mother was afraid that the ministers would be dissatisfied with the Emperor, so she never used this token.]

Lin You [Well, the mutual affection between the late emperor and the empress dowager is so touching. ]
