After Yu Ying'er's rebirth, she became addicted to teasing Concubine Hua

"In that case, then Concubine Rou..."

"Your Majesty, you are so partial. Sister Hua Guifei can go and take care of Fubao and be lazy, but Your Majesty wants me to do these things. I am stupid and it took Your Majesty a long time to learn how to write. How can I take care of all these?" Yu Ying'er tried to get rid of all the messy matters by acting coquettishly. She already had a doted son, so why should she find something for herself to do.

What's more, if you have power, you will still be under the emperor's scrutiny. Why not be a free and unrestrained concubine, vent your anger when you are unhappy, and act coquettishly to the emperor when you want something?

She and the emperor were just spiritual comfort to each other. Why should she invest too much in him, even taking care of his wives, concubines and backyard? I'm afraid it would be difficult to show true love.

The emperor pursed his lips slightly, looked at Yu Ying'er's watery eyes and Nian Shilan's lazy appearance, and sighed inwardly, thinking that he had been defeated by these two women.

"You guys are always so lazy. When can you share my worries like Concubine Wan?" The emperor couldn't help but sigh. He even felt that Zhen Huan was quite considerate sometimes. She would help him share some small things and give him advice.

Yu Ying'er still spoke in a coquettish tone: "I am the emperor's concubine, waiting for the emperor to come to the palace. It is my duty to make the emperor happy. As for the rest, I will remember the rules."

The first rule of the palace rules is that the harem cannot interfere in government affairs.

Seeing this, Nian Shilan couldn't help but add fuel to the fire. She calculated in her heart, but still said lazily on the surface: "I am no match for Concubine Wan. I can only learn a few more soups to serve the emperor in the Yangxin Palace. When the emperor thinks of me, I will do my best to make him feel relaxed and happy."

There is no mention of Zhen Huan's meddling in government affairs word by word, but every word and sentence hints at her meddling in government affairs.

Zhen Huan didn't think there was anything wrong with giving the Emperor some suggestions. She was also trying to help the Emperor solve his worries and troubles. However, seeing the sour words from Concubine Hua and Concubine Rou, she still had to stand up and say a few fair words.

"Of course, my thoughts are the same as yours, both ladies. We want to share the emperor's worries. It's just that the division of labor is different, and each has its own advantages," Zhen Huan said modestly.

But judging from the words spoken by Yu Ying'er and Nian Shilan, coupled with Zhen Huan's expression which showed that it should be so, the seeds of doubt were finally planted in the emperor's heart.

"Okay, I know you all treat me sincerely. Since Shilan and Ying'er need to take care of the royal heir, let's leave this matter to Concubine Wan." The emperor felt that Zhen Huan could accomplish this task alone, and the credit would be even greater by then.

But no, Zhen Huan looked at Cao Qinmo, who had been distracted when she heard Junggar's request to marry the legitimate princess, and said with a smile: "Since the emperor has entrusted this matter to me, can I ask for a favor from the emperor?"

"You, you haven't done anything yet, but you're already thinking about rewards? Don't worry, if you do a good job, I will definitely not miss out on rewards." The emperor was generous at this moment.

Zhen Huan said, "I am not asking for a reward. I just think that Concubine Wen is a cautious person and has a daughter. Please allow Concubine Wen to work with me to prepare for Princess Chaogui's marriage so that she can be familiar with the process in advance."

"What's so difficult about this? I will order Concubine Wen to prepare for this matter with you." The emperor said nonchalantly.

Cao Qinmo, who was mentioned at the side, seemed to have just come back to her senses and was a little dazed. It was only when Yu Ying'er gently pushed her arm that she suddenly stood up as if awakened from a dream and said, "I obey your order."

Among all the people present, only Cao Qinmo was so formal, which seemed a bit awkward.

The emperor wanted to leave, but when he thought about this being Nian Shilan's Yikun Palace, he didn't want to offend Nian Shilan, so he turned around, held Nian Shilan's hand, and whispered to comfort her: "I have something else to deal with in the Yangxin Palace. I will come to have dinner with you later."

"Your Majesty is busy with state affairs, and I dare not disturb you. Your Majesty, please don't worry about me. Just take care of yourself." Nian Shilan looked worried and stared at the emperor lovingly, as if the emperor was his true love.

The emperor felt very satisfied in his heart when being admired and stared at with such affectionate eyes, and the smile on his face became more sincere.

"I knew that Shilan was sensible." The emperor is very satisfied with the current Shilan. He still has his own temperament, but he knows how to sacrifice for himself and consider himself.

Yu Ying'er stood aside and didn't say anything. She didn't want to be discovered by the emperor and be scolded again.

But the emperor turned to look at Yu Ying'er, still unable to let her go, and said to her: "The same goes for Concubine Rou, I will go to see you later. By the way, I have a few pieces of floating brocade, Su Peisheng, and I will send them to Concubine Hua and Concubine Rou to choose. Um... Concubine Wan and Concubine Wen also have some."

Zhen Huan and Cao Qinmo seemed to be taken along, a feeling that made Zhen Huan feel very uncomfortable, but Cao Qinmo felt that no matter what the reason was for the emperor to give the reward, it was indeed a good thing and should not be missed.

"Your Majesty, thank you for your reward." Several people expressed their gratitude.

When the emperor left, he also took Zhen Huan with him. It didn't look like she was going to handle state affairs at all. It was obvious that she was going to be with him, recite poems and songs, and talk about love.

But now, no matter who the emperor is in love with or who he is affectionate with, it doesn’t matter to Nian Shilan and Yu Ying’er, not to mention Cao Qinmo who has never cared. She just doesn’t care what the emperor does.

Cao Qinmo was only thinking about Wen Yi's future. She felt empty inside and her mind was wandering.

"Pin Wen?" Yu Ying'er called out, but there was no response.

Nian Shilan saw through Cao Qinmo's intentions at a glance, thinking that she was still thinking about marrying Princess Chaogui. She rolled her eyes helplessly and shouted, "Cao Qinmo!"

Cao Qinmo suddenly shuddered, quickly came back to her senses, looked at Nian Shilan with confused eyes, and asked, "Madam, what's wrong?"

Over the years, Cao Qinmo has gradually developed a conditioned reflex to Nian Shilan's voice, and he has an instant physical reaction when she calls him.

"What are you thinking about? You're so absorbed in it. Your Concubine Rou called you but you ignored her." Nian Shilan leaned lazily in the chair, like a luxurious ragdoll cat, lazy and noble.

Cao Qinmo wanted to say something but stopped herself, her eyes full of struggle and a feeling of unwillingness rising in her heart.

Princess Chaogui’s biological mother was the late emperor’s noble lady Chen, and she was just an ordinary noble lady not long ago.

Seeing Chaogui's fate, she seemed to see Wen Yi's future, and... and... I heard that the Junggar prince is now old enough to be Princess Chaogui's grandfather. I'm afraid he won't last long. By then, Mongolian customs...

"Puff..." The frantic Cao Qinmo spat out a large mouthful of blood. The blood was black and dotted on the blanket, forming an ugly stain.
