"You are right, but the Queen Mother's intention is obvious to everyone. Even if she cannot enter the palace, she will be crowned as the Queen. But the Emperor still has the blood of the Ulanara clan in him. He has to take care of the glory of the Ulanara clan, and the glory the Queen Mother wants is the position of the master of the harem."

Concubine Duan put down the teacup in her hand and looked at Zhen Huan and Cao Qinmo. The two didn't know what to say for a moment.

“I think the Emperor may not allow Ulanara to be the Queen again, and may not even agree with the Queen Mother’s approach.

Although Empress Chunyuan was from the Ulanara clan, our Empress who was disliked by the Emperor was also from the Ulanara clan.

If we wait a few more years, the Queen Mother will make this request again, and the Emperor will probably agree to it. The Queen has just passed away, and the Emperor must still have some grudges in his heart. I think we should wait and see what the Emperor says."

Zhen Huan continued to speak. She did not think that the emperor would agree to take another Ulanara into the palace. The emperor was suspicious to begin with. The queen mother brought it up now, which undoubtedly showed that she wanted to control the harem. But as an emperor, how could he be willing to be controlled by others? !

"You're right. I'm afraid that the Queen Mother's word 'filial piety' will crush me to death..." Concubine Duan sighed, and Zhen Huan and Cao Qinmo could only nod silently.

The palace was silent for a moment...

"Your Majesty, why don't you see Wen Yi?" Cao Qinmo lowered her head and dared not say a word, but her main purpose of coming to Changchun Palace was to see Wen Yi. Concubine Duan also knew this, but she had not seen Wen Yi until today, so she mustered up the courage to interrupt their contemplation.

"Wen Yi slept a little late today and hasn't woken up yet. I promised her that we would go to the deer park to feed the sika deer tomorrow afternoon. If you are free, let's go together tomorrow..."

Concubine Duan's expression changed slightly, but when she saw Cao Qinmo's concerned look, she still forced a smile and spoke.

"Thank you very much, Her Majesty Duan, for your consideration. I will wait for Her Majesty and Wen Yi in the Deer Garden tomorrow afternoon..." Cao Qinmo's uneasiness faded away. A smile instantly appeared on her face. She stood up and bowed to Her Majesty Duan.

"Your Majesty, the Third Prince is here..." Jixiang came in to report, and Concubine Duan nodded.

"Then I will take my leave first." Zhen Huan and Cao Qinmo looked at each other, then tactfully stood up and asked for leave. Concubine Duan nodded, and the two of them retreated together.

"Empress Wanpin and Concubine Cao are all well." As the two came out, they saw the Third Prince waiting at the door. The Third Prince bowed and said to the three of them.

"Third prince looks like he has grown taller. Come in quickly. Concubine Duan is waiting for you..." Zhen Huan said with a smile. Third prince bowed again before going in.

Zhen Huan and Cao Qinmo left Changchun Palace together. After passing through the palace gate, Cao Qinmo asked, "What does Concubine Wan think of the Third Prince?"

"The Emperor's son is naturally a good person..." Zhen Huan spoke with a smile, without making a single mistake.

"In the past, the Third Prince was with the Queen, and was forced to study every day by the Queen. The Emperor was always dissatisfied. Now, I see that Concubine Duan doesn't force the Third Prince to study, but I don't know..." Cao Qinmo smiled and looked at Zhen Huan. Zhen Huan just smiled and didn't say anything.

"The Concubine Chen has given birth to the Fifth Prince. I see that the Emperor loves her very much. Concubine Wan is so young, she should also give birth to a little prince for the Emperor as soon as possible..."

Cao Qinmo stepped forward to flatter her. During the days she had been with Concubine Duan and Zhen Huan, she had also realized that with Zhen Huan's intelligence, she would definitely not be an ordinary person in the future. But now it seemed that she was inferior to Concubine Duan, so her future was really uncertain!

"Then I'll take advantage of Concubine Cao's good words..." Zhen Huan walked forward while speaking with a smile that didn't reach her eyes.

“In fact, you and I both know that having another Ulanara clan member would be useless.

If the person who comes is kind-hearted, everyone in the harem can share her.

If she is a vicious person, there are ways to prevent her from sitting in that position.

Given the emperor’s love for Concubine Wan, I think all you need is a child…” Cao Qinmo continued to compliment her, but Zhen Huan smiled and shook her head.

"That position can never be obtained by relying on favor. You and I are now below Concubine Duan. Lady Cao should just focus on the present." Zhen Huan said, still with a faint smile on her face...

"I..." Cao Qinmo started, but Zhen Huan continued:

"I know you want Wen Yi back. As long as you assist her wholeheartedly, and Concubine Duan has the Third Prince, are you still afraid that you won't get Wen Yi back?"

"Your Majesty is right..." Cao Qinmo listened and looked at Zhen Huan with bright eyes...

"Go back, Concubine Cao. Stay with Princess Wen Yi tomorrow..." Zhen Huan said, and then walked away...

Yikun Palace.

Hua Fei went to serve the Empress Dowager in the afternoon. Before she left, the Empress Dowager said that she had already mentioned to the Emperor that she wanted to choose another suitable woman from the Ulanara family to enter the palace. When she heard this, she felt a little unhappy, but she still smiled and expressed her approval of the Empress Dowager's move.

Ever since the incident with the Nian family, the emperor has never summoned her again, nor has he come to the Yikun Palace again. Even Songzhi has only been summoned by the emperor twice. It is very difficult for her to see the emperor now, which shows that the emperor is still angry with the Nian family.

So when the Queen Mother brought up the matter, she could only hold back her anger and continue talking...

"I know my brother was indeed wrong, and he paid the price for it, but the emperor is still angry, and the queen mother wants to choose a girl from the Ulanara family to enter the palace. How should I deal with myself in the palace in the future?"

Since coming back, Concubine Hua has been sitting on the main seat in Yiku Palace with a gloomy look on her face. Now, as she spoke, tears were already welling up in her eyes.

"Your Majesty, please don't be sad about this. Our family incident just passed, so it's normal for the emperor to still be angry. After a few days, the emperor will definitely remember your kindness..."

Songzhi was trying to comfort her, and Lingzhi brought in some tea. Songzhi took it and presented it to Concubine Hua.

"Really? Can the Emperor really remember me again?" Concubine Hua looked up at Songzhi. Songzhi nodded. Concubine Hua wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a silk handkerchief and took the teacup.

"Of course. Your Majesty still has your title of noble concubine. The Emperor couldn't even bear to revoke your title. The Emperor must be thinking of his friendship with Your Majesty..." Songzhi continued to comfort her, and Noble Concubine Hua nodded.

"Having Concubine Duan and Concubine Chen in the palace is already enough of a headache. If another one comes, it will be even more disadvantageous to me..." Concubine Hua frowned slightly, feeling bitter in her heart. She put down the teacup without even drinking a sip of tea.

"I think this is a good thing..." Songzhi said as she sat on the eight-treasure stool opposite Concubine Hua and spoke to her.

After hearing this, Concubine Hua was thoughtful...
