In the Hall of Mental Cultivation

Xiao Rui asked how the investigation into Concubine Xia Luxi was going.

Xia Lu replied, "Your Majesty, we are investigating. It seems that it was not done by the Queen, but the person behind it has not been identified yet..."

Xiao Rui waved his hand and said, "Then you can leave first. Come back and report to me when there is progress."

Xia Lu took a few steps back and said, "Yes, I will take my leave."

Xiao Rui was in a great headache. Since it wasn't the Queen who did it, then who could have done it?

At this time, Shen Chang was carrying cakes to visit the emperor in the Yangxin Palace. Xiao Rui heard footsteps and thought it was Song Qingwan coming.

Xiao Rui raised his head happily and said, "You are finally here~" But what caught his eyes was Shen Changzai

"How did the emperor know that I was coming?" Shen Changzai thought that the emperor was worried about her, so she said shyly.

"I guessed it," Xiao Rui casually explained.

"Your Majesty has not visited me for a long time. I wonder if you still remember me." Shen Chang said, half-heartedly.

Little did they know that Xiao Rui would naturally remember her. Wasn't the matter of Concubine Rou Ye Xinting planned by Shen Chang?

"I remember!" Xiao Rui said word by word.

"Then can Your Majesty come to Xiwu Palace to see me tonight?" Shen Chang asked expectantly.

"I will go, you can leave first," Xiao Rui said calmly

"Yes, Your Majesty, please remember to eat the cakes and pastries." Shen Chang did not forget to turn around and add before leaving.

Xiao Rui nodded, and Shen Chang left.

Xiao Rui picked up the cake from the plate, looked at it, then put it down again and called out to Xiao Fuzi outside the door, "Xiao Fuzi, take it down and feed it to the dog."

Xiao Fuzi came in humbly and took the cake out. He secretly broke off a piece and tasted it. He muttered in confusion, "This is not bad. What's wrong with the emperor..."

night

Shen Changzai's father had made great contributions in the previous dynasty. Although Xiao Rui was reluctant, he still came to Xiwu Palace.

"The Emperor has arrived!" Xiao Fuzi shouted

Although Concubine Rou, who was sitting in the main hall, was mad at the emperor, her heart still beat a little when she heard the emperor arrive. It had been so long since the argument in the Yangxin Palace, and he had never come to see her once.

Is it time to lower your status and beg for peace? Concubine Rou couldn't help but think

Concubine Rou stood up and looked out the door. She thought she would wait until the emperor came to her place to renew their past relationship, but unexpectedly she saw the emperor go into the side hall and go to Shen Chang...

Concubine Rou came back to her senses and sat back down on the chair in a daze. The maid Qinxiang saw Concubine Rou was so sad and comforted her, "Your Majesty, don't worry about it. Maybe if you just lower your head, the emperor will still love you as before~"

Concubine Rou glanced at Qinxiang and said, "Why is it me who has to bow my head? I have been framed. What have I done wrong? Not only did the emperor not side with me, he also went to the bitch who slandered me."

Qin Xiang said hesitantly, "My Lady, but he is the Emperor..."

Concubine Rou said firmly, "I will not bow my head. Unless the emperor bows his head and comes to me, I will never bow my head!"

Qinxiang saw that Concubine Rou had made up her mind and could only sigh helplessly.

In the side hall

Shen Changzai stood up in gorgeous clothes to greet the emperor. "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you~"

Xiao Rui said, "Get up."

When Shen Chang stood up, he saw Concubine Rou turning away in disappointment from a distance, and he felt very proud.

Xiao Rui: "Your father has made great contributions this time. He asked if you were well in his memorial."

Shen Changzai said with a smile, "I'm sorry to make you laugh, Your Majesty~ My father has always loved me at home, so when I entered the palace, he couldn't help but miss me~"

Although Shen Changzai easily resolved the issue, Xiao Rui understood that Shen Changzai had not been favored since entering the palace. Zhao Yunshan's implication was simply to point fingers at him.

Xiao Rui said expressionlessly, "I plan to promote you to noble status and hold the canonization ceremony with Concubine Ru during the Mid-Autumn Festival."

After hearing this, Shen Changzai immediately stood up and saluted excitedly, "Thank you, Your Majesty~"

Xiao Rui said, "It's okay, get up and wait for me to rest."

Shen Chang nodded shyly and then took off his clothes piece by piece...

Day 2: Fenghua Palace

Lady Shen is in high spirits when she is happy. As soon as she arrives, she is congratulated by all the concubines.

Ling Xiangxiang said, "Congratulations, Sister Zhao! My father has made great contributions in the previous dynasty, and I have been promoted in the harem. It's really a coincidence that all the good things have happened at the same time~"

Shen Guiren said, "Thank you, sisters~"

Concubine Lan looked at Song Qingwan and said, "Noble Lady Shen is a woman of great virtue and beauty, and it is only a matter of time before she is promoted to a higher rank. She is not like some people who have to rely on some tricks to be promoted!"

Song Qingwan pretended not to notice the look in Lan Fei's eyes. Lan Fei didn't mention her by name, so she wouldn't take it personally.

Seeing that Song Qingwan had no reaction, Concubine Lan added, "Is that right, Concubine Song?"

Song Qingwan looked at Concubine Lan and said calmly, "If Concubine Lan said yes, then it is."

After Concubine Lan provoked Song Qingwan, she started to talk to Concubine Yu Yin and Yang. "I am really happy for Sister Zhao. The Emperor immediately promoted her. It is better than those who lost their children to get the position!"

It was obviously referring to Concubine Yu. She had a miscarriage that day and the emperor took pity on her and gave her a title.

When Concubine Yu heard Concubine Lan talking about how she lost her child, she turned pale with anger. "Concubine Lan, you!"

The Queen then said, "Princess Lan is rude. Go back and reflect on your mistakes. Everyone else can leave if you have nothing else to do."

Concubine Lan walked away in a huff. Concubine Shen caught up with Concubine Lan. The two of them were talking quietly as they walked...
