After His Majesty's rebirth, he personally taught the queen to abuse the scumbag

Chapter 15 High Fever

The news that Cheng Mingran had returned to Lianyi Palace quickly spread throughout the harem. When everyone heard the news for the first time, they suspected that they had heard it wrong.

What does His Majesty mean? Why did he suddenly bring Cheng Mingran back? Not only that, they all heard about what happened in the court today, but His Majesty didn't use this as an excuse to punish the Cheng family?

And Concubine Xian... because she tortured Cheng Mingran, she was not only confined and caned, but also demoted. In addition, they just heard that Yun Chongyi seemed to have offended Cheng Mingran today, so His Majesty ordered twenty slaps on the face.

You must know that Yun Chongyi has been in favor in recent days. The key is that her father is the general of Huaihua, and he was chosen by His Majesty to fight against the Cheng family. So what is the meaning of her current behavior?

"Empress, the reason why Concubine Shu was banished to the cold palace was because she plotted to murder the royal heir. Now that Your Majesty is releasing her like this, it's probably a bit inappropriate, isn't it?" It was Concubine De who spoke first.

"Yes, Your Majesty, if you do this, won't the harem be in chaos in the future?" Chen Xiurong also began to speak.

Queen Chi Yue sat upright on the high throne. Her eyes were solemn and majestic, and when they fell on the people below, they revealed endless wisdom and decisiveness.

The gorgeous palace dress sparkled brightly under the light, and it complemented the pearls and diamonds on her head, emitting a dazzling brilliance.

Her face was as calm as water, as if all the disturbances could not break her inner peace. Listening to the noise below, she never interrupted.

"Your Majesty," a palace maid came in from outside.

"What's the matter?" The queen's voice rang out, and everyone looked towards the door.

"His Majesty just sent someone to ask Your Majesty to prepare for the Queen Mother's return to the palace." The maid reported with her head lowered.

There was silence in the audience, and even the Queen was a little surprised: "What about the Queen Mother's return to the palace?"

Four months ago, the Queen Mother was implicated by the Cheng family, so she went to the temporary palace outside the palace.

"The Empress Dowager is coming back? Did His Majesty say so?" Defei asked.

"I don't know, but the palace maid who came to deliver the message to His Majesty did say so," the maid replied.

When the Queen Mother left the palace, His Majesty said, Queen Mother, you are not allowed to return to the palace unless it is an important festival. Although he said so, everyone knew that His Majesty had no intention of letting the Queen Mother return to the palace again.

"When will the Queen Mother return to the palace?" asked the Queen.

"The Empress Dowager has not yet set out. It will probably take at least a month at the earliest," the maid replied.

One month? What on earth does His Majesty want to do? Not only did he release Cheng Mingran, but now he wants the Queen Mother to return to the palace?

"Okay, I understand. You can leave now," said the Queen.

The maid bowed and left, but even though they had left the palace, the concubines could not remain quiet.

"Your Majesty, what does your Majesty mean?"

"How long has the Empress Dowager been out of the palace? Is there anything important going on in the palace recently?"

"Yes, Queen, why did the Queen Mother come back so suddenly?"

The Queen was also somewhat helpless: "Well, His Majesty has his own intentions, so just say less. It's a good thing that the Queen Mother is back, we are already a family."

Concubine De rolled her eyes and said, "Your Majesty, what you said is true, but who doesn't know about the relationship between Your Majesty and Your Majesty the Queen Mother?"

"De Fei, please be careful with your words," the Queen frowned.

Concubine De was not convinced: "Alright, it's all my fault. The Queen is the mother of the country and the model of the harem. Naturally, it is not for me and others to comment on her at will. I am not feeling well today, so I will return to the palace first."

After saying this, Concubine De stood up from her seat and left Fengqi Palace without looking back. She was the daughter of Grand Tutor Zhou and the teacher of His Majesty. She had a distinguished family background and a straightforward personality. She did whatever she wanted in the harem and even dared to ignore the Queen.

"Sister Defei is still the same as always. How dare you ignore the Empress?"

"The father of Concubine De is your majesty's mentor. Your majesty indulges Concubine De. What can we say?"

"If you ask me, the Queen is just too kind-hearted. How can the Queen tolerate Concubine De being like this?"

"The Queen is very kind-hearted and generous. She is worthy of being the Queen chosen by His Majesty."

Chi Yue couldn't tell whether she was happy or angry when listening to what the people below said. She was the daughter of the Minister of Revenue, and before entering the palace, she was a model of a lady from a noble family in the capital.

Later, she was chosen by Ji Lingzhou during the selection of concubines and given the position of the principal wife. She was canonized as the queen as soon as she entered the palace. In the many years since she became the queen, she has been self-disciplined and magnanimous, and she has played the role of the queen to the fullest.

"Defei has a straightforward personality, and Your Majesty probably likes her personality. It's not a big mistake after all, so there's nothing to worry about." The Queen smiled gently.

"Well, it's getting late today, sisters, please go back to the palace early." The queen was ordering everyone to leave.

Everyone was a discerning person, so they naturally wouldn't stay here forever, so they all stood up and said, "I'll take my leave."

After everyone in the hall had left, Chi Yue was helped back to the inner hall by her trusted palace maid Qing He.

"Have someone prepare a bowl of ginseng soup later. I'm going to see His Majesty." said the Queen.

"Yes," Qing He agreed, and also said, "Is the Queen concerned about what the ladies said today?"

Chi Yue nodded gently: "I am the queen, and I have to say what I need to say. No matter what, Your Majesty must have a reason to release Concubine Shu this time, otherwise these people in the harem will probably make a fuss for a while."

Qing He nodded: "Your Majesty, please don't take it too seriously with His Majesty, so as not to upset His Majesty."

The Queen sighed, "Don't you know this even if others don't? How much affection can His Majesty have for me as a husband and wife? It's just a show. I'm the Queen, what else can I ask for?"

"I was wrong." Qinghe lowered her head.

The queen was helpless, and then she remembered something and said, "Have you arranged everything for Concubine Shu? Have the palace maids sent them there?"

"The Ministry of Internal Affairs sent the people there, but His Majesty asked those who previously served in Lianyi Palace to go back," Qinghe said.

"Since your majesty has made arrangements, then we should do as your majesty says. You should also pay more attention and make sure no one takes advantage of it," said the queen.

"Yes, we servants don't need to worry, Your Majesty," Qinghe said.

The queen nodded and said nothing more.
