Chapter 281: Assistant to the 6th Palace, angry at rumors
There is no use thinking too much. The emperor himself is now under the control of Nian Gengyao. Once the emperor deals with Nian Gengyao, I think her father will be able to resume his post.
After all, it seemed that the emperor did not agree with the contents of the memorial, he was just forced to do so.
"The Emperor has turned over your name card today, so you must dress up nicely."
Chuntao on the side spoke up.
"I just went to Suiyuxuan. Sister Wan looked very sad, but I can't help her with this kind of thing. Seeing her like this makes me sad too."
An Lingrong spoke with a sigh as she carefully traced her eyebrows with an eyebrow pencil.
"It is normal for Concubine Wan to feel upset because her father was demoted. I'm afraid many people are secretly laughing at Concubine Wan behind her back. Only you, my young master, still care about Concubine Wan's hardship."
Chuntao took over the conversation and spoke.
"When I first entered the capital, I didn't have much money on me. If it weren't for Lady Wan who felt sorry for me and asked me to take me to the Zhen Mansion to take care of me, I wouldn't have had such an easy life back then."
"What's more, although I became good friends with my sister after entering the palace, I was not as close to Concubine Wan and Concubine Hui, but they did help me a lot."
"So I am grateful to them in my heart. Moreover, when my father was in trouble before, although Concubine Wan and Concubine Hui didn't help me much, at least they have been helping me find solutions. Now that Concubine Wan's father is in trouble, I can't just turn my back on them."
"Even if I can't help much with this matter, I can't just step in and step on her. If there is a chance, I am willing to say a few words for her in front of the emperor."
Now that An Lingrong has been with Fu Cha Zhixi for a long time, her mentality has become calmer. She is no longer as cautious and sensitive as when she first entered the palace.
A sincere friendship can give people great courage and strength. An Lingrong gained the trust and friendship from Fu Cha Zhixi, so naturally she would not keep worrying about whether Zhen Huan was sincere to her.
She thought that Zhen Huan did have feelings for her, but this friendship was certainly not as good as the friendship between her and Concubine Hui.
"My Lord, you are too kind."
Chuntao shook her head helplessly and said.
"It's nothing, it's just a matter of words."
"Besides, even if I want to plead for Lady Wan, I won't be so stupid as to say this when I know the emperor is unhappy. I have to find a good time when the emperor is happy before I speak."
An Lingrong looked at Chuntao and spoke with a smile.
"Anyway, the young lady is pregnant now, so you have to consider the baby in your belly more when you speak and do things, and you must not anger the emperor."
Chuntao looked at An Lingrong with some concern and said.
Gyeongin Palace
"Now that spring has finally arrived and the weather has warmed up, you must be feeling better now."
The emperor looked at the queen and spoke with concern.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern for my health. I am feeling much better now."
"What's more, now that Concubine Hua, Concubine Xuan, and Concubine Jing are managing the harem for me, I can have a little more free time, and my body will naturally recover slowly."
The Queen took the Emperor's sincere concern very seriously. She looked at the Emperor with a smile and spoke.
"You still have to take good care of your body. Now that Concubine Hua and the others are in charge of the harem, there hasn't been any trouble. I think you can rest a little easier now."
The emperor spoke to the queen.
"Hua Fei has assisted in the management of the six palaces. Jing Fei is also an old lady in the palace. She is familiar with the affairs of the harem. I didn't expect that Xuan Fei has not been in the palace for long. She can handle the affairs of the six palaces with ease at such a young age. I really admire her."
The Queen seemed to have unintentionally pointed out that Concubine Xuan had outstanding abilities.
After all, compared to Concubine Hua, someone like Concubine Xuan who doesn't cause trouble is better.
The Queen was not willing to confront Concubine Hua directly. Now that Zhen Huan was at a disadvantage because of her father's incident, the only person who had the confidence and strength to confront Concubine Hua was Concubine Xuan.
"Although Concubine Xuan is a little young, she is from the Fucha clan after all. She has learned the housekeeping from Fucha Fujin. In addition, Concubine Xuan is very smart and can naturally help you manage the harem."
The Emperor was generous in praising Concubine Xuan, which made the Queen unable to control her discomfort and jealousy.
She felt uncomfortable that the Emperor valued Concubine Xuan so much, and she was jealous that she had almost everything she desired.
Whether it is a good family with deep roots or the emperor's favor, they are things she wants but does not have.
"Concubine Xuan has made great contributions to the epidemic. Concubine Hua has also made great efforts. In addition, Concubine Hua has become more docile and cautious now. It is better to let the three of them help you manage the harem. You can also take this opportunity to take good care of your body."
This was also one of the purposes of the emperor coming here today. After all, the right to manage the harem belongs to the queen. What's more, the queen has been much more honest and well-behaved after the previous incident. So he came here specially to tell the queen in person, which saved the queen's face.
"Your Majesty is the boss. I will obey your Majesty."
The Queen was not too surprised by this result. After all, Concubine Hua was so powerful now, and it would be difficult for the Emperor to take away the power from Concubine Hua.
What's more, the power in the palace was not all given to Concubine Hua alone. After all, Concubine Xuan and Concubine Jing shared some of the power. In this way, it was not so easy for Concubine Hua to place her own people.
"Your Majesty, there is a rumor spreading in the palace right now. When I first heard it, I was also shocked. I didn't know whether I should tell Your Majesty. But if I don't tell Your Majesty, I am worried that this matter will get bigger and bigger."
The queen looked at the emperor hesitantly, with an embarrassed look on her face.
"What rumor?"
The emperor couldn't help but frown and subconsciously looked in the direction of Su Peisheng.
What is Su Peisheng up to? Even the Queen knows about this rumor, but Su Peisheng has no idea about it at all.
Su Peisheng was also a little confused when he heard this. Recently, there was a lot of fuss in the palace about the incident concerning Concubine Wan's father. Apart from that, he hadn't heard any other rumors.
"Your Majesty, when I heard about this rumor, I immediately found the person who spread it. Although I didn't find out who started it, I was able to control the rumor, so it didn't spread widely. It can't be considered that Eunuch Su was derelict in his duty if he didn't know about it."
Seeing this, the queen smiled and explained for Su Peisheng.
Su Peisheng gave the queen a grateful look.
