Yixiu put on a sick beauty makeup early in the morning. This makeup made her look not very good and a little weak.

He rode in a sedan chair to the Queen's Jingren Palace.

Almost all the concubines who were able to pay their respects, whether new or old, had arrived, except for Concubine Hua and the Queen.

The Queen is of noble status, so she naturally won't come out too early. Concubine Hua doesn't take the Queen seriously at all, so being late is very normal for her.

Everyone's eyes turned to the Imperial Concubine.

The Imperial Concubine already has six sons and one daughter at this age, which is really enviable.

Yixiu sat down on the chair, with Concubine Qi sitting on the chair next to her. The empty seat opposite was occupied by Nian Shilan. Concubine Duan Qi Yuebin was ill and usually would not come to pay respects to the Queen. Concubine Duan would only appear on important occasions.

Concubine Jing, Noble Lady Cao, Noble Lady Xin and others are all old-timers in the palace.

Noble Lady Qi, Noble Lady Fucha, Noble Lady Shen, Concubine Chun, and Lady An are all newcomers.

Yixiu looked at them with a hint of scrutiny in her eyes. The concubines of the Manchu army flag were indeed not as pretty as those of the Han army flag.

Han women are still more beautiful. In Yongzheng's harem, the majority of concubines were Han.

Among the concubines of the Manchu army, Concubine Qi was the most outstanding in appearance.

Yixiu admired the beauty for a while, and then the queen was escorted out.

The Queen glanced around and paused for a moment when her eyes fell on Hua Fei's empty seat.

He withdrew his gaze and looked at the face of the Imperial Concubine whom he had not seen for several months. His hands were clenched into fists in his sleeves, and his slender armor was deeply embedded in his palms. After only a few months of not seeing her, her complexion did not seem to be very good, but her beauty had not diminished at all. Instead, she had a hazy and morbid beauty. It was completely impossible to tell that she was a woman who had given birth to six sons and one daughter.

"I haven't seen you for a few months. The Imperial Concubine is still as young and beautiful as ever."

Yixiu curled her lips and smiled: "Your Majesty, you are too kind. I am not even one ten-thousandth as good as you."

Queen: "On the day you gave birth, the imperial physician came to report that you had injured yourself while giving birth to the Eighth Prince and the Ninth Princess, and that you needed the best tonic to recuperate. How is your health now? Have you recovered?"

Although the queen wished that the other party would die immediately, as a queen she still had to endure it as much as possible and appear virtuous and generous and concerned about the other party's health.

"The imperial physician has been giving me medicine, but my condition has not improved." At this point, Yixiu showed a sad look on her face, "After all, I am unlucky. I am afraid that I will not be able to serve the emperor in the future."

Yixiu lowered her eyes and raised her hand to wipe away the non-existent tears from the corners of her eyes. She didn't even need to prepare herself to get into the role.

"Fortunately, there are many sisters in the harem who can serve the emperor on my behalf."

"Is it that serious?" The Queen was surprised. Seeing the sadness on her face, the Queen felt happy and comforted her: "Go back and get some good tonics from me. Take good care of yourself and you will get better."

During Yixiu's first two births in the Qiandi Palace, Ulanara Rou was deceived several times by the other party's pretending. Every time, they thought that she was really injured, but a few years later, she was pregnant with the royal heir again.

This time she specifically consulted several imperial physicians who had examined Yixiu's pulse. All of them said, without exception, that Yixiu had injured her body during childbirth, and no amount of tonic medicine, no matter how good, would be enough to nourish her body, and she would have to rely on medicine for the rest of her life.

Concubine Hua walked into Jingren Palace with a twisted waist, bowed perfunctorily, and sat down on her seat without waiting for the Queen to speak.

"Last night, I taught Lady Shen to take care of the palace affairs and didn't rest until very late. I came to pay my respects late today. Will the Queen blame me?"

Although the Queen was accustomed to Concubine Hua's arrogance, her expression was still stiff for a moment. Facing Concubine Hua's provocation, as the Queen, she could only endure the humiliation.

The Queen took a deep breath and smiled as if she didn't care: "Of course not. It's hard for my sister to teach the newcomers about palace affairs. I can't bear it. If the Emperor knew about it, he would feel sorry for my sister."

"If you are like this, I can't ask Concubine Shen to continue to go to Yikun Palace to trouble my sister. It would be better for me to report to the emperor and ask my sister to send the palace affairs to Jingren Palace. In the future, Concubine Shen will come to Jingren Palace to learn how to manage palace affairs."

Naturally, Concubine Shen supported it. If the Queen took back the power in the palace, she would no longer have to go to Concubine Hua's Yikun Palace to suffer bullying.

The smile on Concubine Hua's lips froze, as her wish was dashed against her. She wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to take back the power in the palace, but it was impossible.

"Then there's no need for the Queen to worry about that. After all, I'm a few years younger than the Queen, still young and strong, and I have the energy to teach Concubine Shen how to manage palace affairs. But the Queen, after the New Year, will be over 30 years old, and I'm afraid she won't have that much energy to teach Concubine Shen."

The Queen could no longer maintain her expression, and said coldly: "If that's the case, why are you late every day when you pay your respects to me, Concubine Hua? Are you deliberately provoking me?"

Concubine Hua has always been proud, so how could she care about a queen who has been out of favor for many years?

Hua Fei: "I didn't do it on purpose. The Queen said earlier that she wouldn't blame me. Are you going to go back on your word?"

There was provocation in Concubine Hua's eyes, as if telling her, I did it on purpose, just tell me what you can do to me.

The Queen was furious!

Watching the two of them interacting with each other, she forgot about herself. Yixiu felt that this scene was familiar. Hua Fei had done the same thing to her original body. Could it be that now that the original body was gone, the Queen took the original body's script?

Just as Yixiu was lost in thought, Concubine Hua pointed the finger at her.

"The Imperial Concubine is really hardworking. She hurt herself in order to give birth to a child for the Emperor. I heard that the Imperial Concubine will no longer be able to sleep with the Emperor in the future."

Hua Fei's words were probably a bit gloating

Ulanara Yixiu, as long as his stomach is full, the emperor rests in Ulanara Yixiu's palace more often than in her Yikun Palace. This time Ulanara Yixiu is injured and will not be able to have sex in the future. The emperor will have more time to accompany her, how can she not be happy.

Yixiu: "It is my blessing to give birth to a son for the emperor. Even if I hurt myself giving birth to a child, I am willing to do it.

Hua Fei, on the other hand, has served the Emperor for many years but has yet to bear a child. Hua Fei needs to work harder. She can’t just occupy the Emperor’s time but fail to bear a child for him, wasting his time.”

"Having said that, I have to say a few more words to you, Concubine Hua. If you really can't have children, then don't always monopolize the emperor. Advise the emperor to visit the palace of the newlyweds. Who knows, the emperor might have a few more princes and princesses this year."

It's just that she's pregnant. It's only been a few months since they last met, but Nian Shilan has already forgotten how to attack her. If that's the case, she doesn't mind poking Nian Shilan in the lungs.

The current Yongzheng is no longer the same as when he was in Prince Yong's mansion. Prince Yong was physically strong then, but Yongzheng has gained weight and turned into a fat orange. In that aspect, he is not as good as before.

I really don’t know what Concubine Hua likes about Yongzheng, whether she likes him being old or being fat.
