Rebirth: Qingying comes back to reorganize the harem

-

"What a bastard!?"

After hearing the news from his subordinates, the emperor frowned and stood up from his chair in astonishment. His eyes widened slightly due to extreme anger, and he asked in an unbelievable tone:

"You said that Concubine Jia has only given birth for a day, but she has ignored her own body and ran all the way after Prince Yu left the capital? She really has Prince Yu in her heart!"

The emperor's voice was full of surprise and dissatisfaction when he spoke at this time.

Then, the emperor slammed the table in anger, his eyes wide open, and shouted:

"How shameless! As a noble lady, she actually brought shame to me and the Qing Dynasty in the harem!"

The emperor's face turned red with anger, and his hands were clenched into fists. If the emperor had not still had some rationality, he would have wanted to drag Jin Yuyan over and beat her to death with a stick.

However, before the emperor's anger over Jin Yuyan chasing Prince Yu around the palace subsided, new news came.

Jinzhong, who was standing below, knelt down nervously and reported to the emperor:

"Your Majesty, this is bad. Concubine Jia has just given birth less than a day ago and she has been running around like this. She is too excited and has now suffered heavy bleeding and has been carried back to Qixiang Palace. Concubine Jia has been in a coma and seems to have not woken up yet."

The emperor suppressed his anger and listened to what his subordinates said. His face became even gloomier, his brows furrowed even tighter, and a trace of unrestrained murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

Just as the emperor was thinking about how to deal with Jin Yuyan, a eunuch came hurriedly:

"Your Majesty, I just received a message from one of my subordinates who traveled a thousand miles to deliver news that Prince Yu had just left the capital and had people transport all the tributes that had been prepared long ago to the Qing Dynasty. The amount is several times that of previous years, and there are also several tonics that can prolong life."

The emperor's expression changed slightly, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. Perhaps he had not expected that Prince Yu was so skillful, but he was indeed very satisfied.

The emperor slowly lowered his hand, which was originally raised in the air, and his fingers trembled in the air, as if he wanted to accuse something, but in the end, the corners of his mouth twitched and he sighed helplessly.

The emperor's eyes became complicated as he looked at the memorials on the desk. He was angry and helpless. He was silent for a moment, then waved his hand gently and said:

"Forget it. After all, the Yu clan is now part of the Qing Dynasty. I cannot make things difficult for a clan that is dependent on the Qing Dynasty. But since Concubine Jia is so concerned about her mother's clan, she must be a sentimental person. In consideration of her contribution to giving me the birth of the Seventh Prince, I will choose a date to promote Concubine Jia to Concubine Jia and Concubine Hai to Concubine Lan. This will be a blessing for Concubine Hai and the unborn baby."

"Yes, I will go to each palace to announce the good news."

When Li Yu heard that Hai Lan, who was on good terms with the Empress, was canonized as Concubine Lan by the Emperor, she was genuinely happy. Concubine Lan was on good terms with the Empress and always respected her and never looked down on her, which was already a rare occasion for her.

The reason why the emperor conferred the title on Jin Yuyan was entirely because of her membership in the Yu family, but for Jin Yuyan, it was already a pleasant surprise.

However, Ruyi was a little surprised that the emperor conferred the title of Lanpin on Hailan in this life. After all, the emperor gave Hailan the title of Yu in her previous life. For some reason, the emperor directly gave Hailan the title of Lan in this life. But it didn't matter.

If I were still worrying about every decision of the emperor like I did in my previous life, I would have been unable to sleep day and night.

Anyway, they were both conferred titles by the emperor, which was earlier than the day when the emperor conferred titles on Hailan in the previous life, so it was considered a good thing.

Therefore, Ruyi naturally wanted to gather her good sisters in the harem together.

However, when she saw Hailan get the ninth chicken leg with her own eyes, Ruyi couldn't help but frown. Hailan's diet had been strictly controlled by Gao Xiyue throughout her life. Logically, there should be no chance for her to drug anyone. How could Hailan eat so much when she was only in the second half of pregnancy? She would probably suffer again when she gave birth in the future.

Ruyi calmly placed several refreshing vegetarian dishes in front of Hailan and told Gao Xiyue,

"Xiyue, Hailan is pregnant now. Although we can't deprive her of food, she can't eat too much either, uh..."

Ruyi looked up at Gao Xiyue, who was in almost the same position as Hailan, holding a chicken leg in her left hand and a piece of fish in her right hand. She rarely felt a deep sense of powerlessness.

I have been busy teaching Gao Xiyue how to check her daily meals recently, and I forgot that Gao Xiyue is the person who loves to eat the most.

It's just that Gao Xiyue has good skin. When she was pregnant with Jingfu, she was very careful and didn't let Gao Xiyue eat too much. But Gao Xiyue's belly was as big as a ball when she gave birth.

But in the end, Gao Xiyue didn't get any lines on her belly.

-

In the end, Ruyi really didn't want Hai Lan to have a belly full of stretch marks in the late stages of her pregnancy, so she decided that Gao Xiyue and Hai Lan would not have to come to Changchun Palace except for breakfast, but for the other two meals.

Hailan looked at her favorite cherry chicken on the table with some grievance, watched it with her eyes wide open, swallowed a few times, and finally turned her eyes to the vegetarian dish brought to her by her sister, the Queen.

Forget it, they are all vegetables, just eat them if you can.

Hai Lan didn't know what was wrong with her. She had never been greedy for these foods before, but since she became pregnant, it was fine in the early stage, but in the middle stage, five or six months, she was really greedy. If it weren't for the Queen sister who intentionally stopped her, she might have eaten four or five meals in one meal.

Oh, it seems that I am pregnant with a little greedy cat.

If it weren't for the fact that the Emperor now attaches great importance to Hai Lan, sometimes he would even ask someone to bring Hai Lan to the Yangxin Palace for the Emperor to see after dinner. Otherwise, even when the Emperor settled her down at night, Ruyi would want to stay by Hai Lan's side.

I don't want Hailan to have stretch marks on her belly, not just for the sake of gaining the emperor's favor in the future, but I simply hope that Hailan can stay this beautiful forever.

Ever since Hai Lan became pregnant, she was canonized as a concubine by the emperor. Now she even has a title, which makes Zhang Minmin suddenly dissatisfied.

After all, Zhang Minmin was once one of the emperor's favorites in the harem, and she even gave birth to a prince for the emperor. However, the emperor never mentioned promoting her to a higher rank, which really made her feel dissatisfied.

Although she was born in a brothel, she entered the palace as a member of the Empress' mother's family. Now it seems that the Emperor is so cold to her, so he must not have much love for the Empress either.

"My dear, the Second Prince wants to see you. He said he brought you some top-quality incense. I'm sure you will like it."

"Humph, he's just a prince whose mother just died, yet he's so eager to send me something. If you don't know, you might think I want to adopt him as my son."

Zhang Minmin raised her head somewhat proudly. Although she expressed her disdain for Yonghuang in her words and deeds, her proud look clearly showed that she was very satisfied with Yonghuang's flattery.

"If Madam Zhang is willing to be Yonghuang's support, Yonghuang will also be willing in his heart."

Zhang Minmin looked at the maid who was serving her with dissatisfaction, and slapped her without hesitation, scolding her,

"What's the point of giving you so much food every day! You can't even guard the palace gates. You are such a useless bunch. Get out now!"

"Yes."

Zhang Minmin has a weird temper. When she's in a bad mood every day, she always smashes things around the house and even scolds people. So when Zhang Minmin gives an order, the people in the house run out with their heads down without any hesitation.

Yonghuang looked at the cleaned house immediately and was a little confused about Zhang Minmin's plan. The emperor had taken extra care of him because of his mother's accidental death, but now his brother Yongqi was back.

The Emperor Father once again focused all the attention that he had finally paid to himself on his so-called eldest son, his elder brother, even though his own talents were not much worse than his elder brother's.

However, because his mother was not the emperor's principal wife, he was not valued in the emperor's heart.

Thinking back, I was the first prince of the twins, a boy and a girl, among all the Emperor's children. Even the Imperial Observatory said that my future destiny was extremely noble. However, my status as a bastard's son was enough to suppress me.

Emperors in history were never necessarily the eldest sons of their royal father. Moreover, for the sake of his royal father's favor, he even solved the problem of his own mother. No matter what, he would not let go of the opportunity to seize the throne.

However, the concubines who are slightly favored in the palace now either gave birth to a prince or are on good terms with the empress. Now, only Zhang Minmin, who came from a humble background, is slightly to his liking.

The most important point is that Zhang Minmin is not as devoted to her imperial father as other concubines. If he can win Zhang Minmin's heart, it will be a great advantage for him in the future.

This was also a bad strategy that my mother taught me. However, there is one thing I may not want to admit, and that is that I also secretly like women like Zhang Minmin.

Zhang Minmin looked at the wooden box in Yonghuang's hand with charming eyes, but did not say anything. Yonghuang immediately handed the wooden box to her with tact, and then bent his waist until he could not bend any further.

"This is Yonghuang's gift to Empress Zhang. If Empress Zhang is happy, Yonghuang's hard work these days will be meaningful."

Yonghuang is handsome, inheriting half of the looks of the emperor and half of Fucha Zhuying. He has both the handsomeness of a man and the elegance of a woman. If Zhang Minmin meets such a man outside the palace, she is self-aware and is afraid that she will definitely win him over.

It's a pity that now she is not a prostitute at all, but the emperor's concubine, and the man in front of her is also the emperor's son. If she commits incest, her good days will be over.

So when Zhang Minmin accepted the wooden box sent by Yonghuang, she snorted coldly, no longer looked at Yonghuang, raised her hand to see him off,

"Well, it's getting late today, Second Prince, please go back. I already know what you mean."

"Of course. Yonghuang is very grateful to Empress Zhang. When my mother was in the cold palace, she received the favor of Empress Zhang. When my fourth brother enters the academy in the future, Yonghuang will definitely provide him with more opportunities in front of the emperor. Yonghuang will not disturb Empress Zhang today. Yonghuang takes his leave."

After Yonghuang finished speaking, he turned around and prepared to leave.

However, when Zhang Minmin saw Yonghuang leaving without saying anything, she shook her head in annoyance. She was just saying it. After all, who doesn't like to be with a handsome man?

They were just staying together, and they didn't do anything excessive. Moreover, the emperor favored the concubines in the harem every day, and each day was different. This month was almost over, and the emperor didn't even think of me for a single day.

Since the emperor doesn't care about me at all, how can I expect myself to stay with such a heartless man like him all day long.

"Please wait a moment, Second Prince. Madam Zhang's feet have been particularly sore and swollen lately. I am of low status, and the princes and nobles in the palace look down on me. If Second Prince can find the South China Sea pink pearls for Madam Zhang and grind them into powder to apply on her feet, it will surely heal faster. At that time, I will certainly take care of you more. After all, I used to be good friends with your mother, so I will naturally not bear to see you alone in the harem."

As Zhang Minmin spoke, she pretended to accidentally lose her balance and fell forward.

Zhang Minmin counted to three silently in her heart. When she counted to the third time, she found that the surroundings were suddenly filled with a pleasant bamboo fragrance. It turned out that Yonghuang, in order to protect her, actually hugged her by the waist.

Zhang Minmin felt the pleasure of being held steadily by the man. Ever since the emperor sprained his waist twice in a row last time, he could no longer hold her. Even when she was close to the emperor sometimes, she would be pricked by the beard he specially grew on his face, which was really unromantic.

But that was the emperor, the supreme ruler, and she naturally did not have the courage to refuse the emperor's approach. But now that she was suddenly picked up by Yonghuang, Zhang Minmin's already restless heart was instantly agitated.

This is what it feels like to be young!

In fact, if you calculate their ages, Yonghuang is only one year younger than Zhang Minmin. The close contact between the two made Yonghuang, who was originally ready to take the initiative, start to blush.

Yonghuang felt that his psychological quality was still too poor, otherwise he should have said something to ease the atmosphere at this time. However, he didn't know what to say so as not to be so presumptuous.
