Concubine Jia made some sarcastic remarks to the Queen in Yiku Palace, and just after seeing a little blood, she was restored to her position as a concubine.

She dragged all the concubines into the embarrassment and made it impossible for the empress to establish her authority in the six palaces by punishing herself.

It also deepened Concubine Chun and Concubine Ling's resentment towards the Queen, achieving three goals with one stroke.

After the incident, Concubine Jia pretended to be well-behaved for a while, and Yanwan was also very friendly and focused on handling palace affairs.

The harem was rarely quiet, and the emperor became more and more satisfied with Yan Wan. He felt that Yan Wan had already reached the position of a concubine and could give her some more grace.

The emperor said to Yan Wan, "I have decided to raise your banner. I will raise your Wei family from the Zhenghuang Banner Baoyi Guanling to the Zhenghuang Banner Baoyi Zuoling. Let's see who dares to use your background to make trouble in the future!"

Yan Wan was stunned. It was the first time she remembered that the original owner had a family after traveling through the book for so long.

Thinking of the original owner's declining family, his early deceased father, his gambling and biased mother, and his good-for-nothing brother, he felt sad.

Yan Wan has not forgotten how rude and greedy the mother and son of the original owner were, and she has not forgotten how the mother and son brought disaster upon the original owner!

The emperor saw Yan Wan was stunned and hesitated to thank him, so he asked, "What's wrong? Are you unhappy?"

Yan Wan reacted and knelt down to express her gratitude, saying, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace!"

"What's wrong? Why do you look so worried?" the emperor asked curiously.

The Emperor has granted the Wei family the honor of carrying the banner, and fearing that the mother and son might have to come to the palace to express their gratitude, Yan Wan felt that it would be better for her to give the Emperor a heads-up in advance.

Yan Wan said worriedly: "Your Majesty, I am naturally grateful for your grace, but Your Majesty doesn't know that my mother's family has fallen into poverty. They rely on the little help from the family and the monthly salary I earn as a palace maid to survive."

"Although I have served the emperor for many years and have received more monthly allowances, my brother is useless and only knows how to eat, drink and have fun, and my mother dotes on him. I am afraid that my mother and brother will fail the emperor's grace and do something that will embarrass him."

The emperor knew that Yan Wan had a hard time before, so it was normal for her to have such concerns. He comforted her, "Blood relations and siblings are not something you can choose. Your brother is still young. If you give him more advice, maybe he will get better in the future."

Yan Wan already had an idea, and said happily: "I understand, thank you for your advice, Your Majesty!"

That night, Yan Wan was lying on the bed with her eyes closed. The palace maid on duty thought that Yan Wan had fallen asleep and dozed off by the bed.

Yan Wan called out in her heart: "System, system? Where are you? Ben, I have encountered a problem that is difficult to solve, please come out and help me!"

Yan Wan called for a long time, and the system, which had ignored Yan Wan for several years, finally showed up.

The cold mechanical voice of the system sounded in Yan Wan's mind: "How can I help the host?"

After being away from modern society for so long, Yanwan could no longer adapt to the cold mechanical sound and suddenly felt uncomfortable all over.

Yan Wan asked, "System, you said I have three chances to ask for help. Does that mean you can help me with whatever I ask for?"

The system replied: "As long as it doesn't kill anyone and doesn't affect the course of history!"

Yan Wan was relieved and explained her purpose, "The original owner's mother and brother are both time bombs that will only cause trouble. I don't want Ruyi and the others to find my weak spot."

"I won't ask you to kill them. Can you think of a way to make them change and become a normal mother and son who can feel sorry for my efforts and share my worries?"

The system thought for a moment and said, "Yes! But the host needs to guide them well! I will gradually change their minds."

After getting the system's promise, Yan Wan was completely relieved.

Within a few days, the imperial edict to raise the flag had been passed on, and the original owner's mother and brother came to the palace to express their gratitude as usual and to visit Yan Wan.

Wei Yang and Zuo Lu kowtowed from a distance outside the Yangxin Palace, and were then taken to the Yongshou Palace by the palace servants.

Looking at the magnificent and luxurious Yongshou Palace, Wei Yang and Zuo Lu had no intention of paying attention to Yan Wan, whom they had not seen for many years. They wanted to take any treasure they saw for themselves and take it out of the palace to sell it for money when they left.

Chunchan and Lancui knew each other when they were young. They already knew the character of Wei Yangshi and Zuolu and had gotten used to the contrast.

Yan Wan sent the other palace maids to the outer hall early as she didn't want them to see this embarrassing scene.

After waiting for a long time, Wei Yangshi and Zuolu still did not stop their treasure hunt. Yanwan looked unhappy. Chunchan said, "Madam, Master Zuolu, you haven't seen Concubine Ling yet."

Wei Yang finally had time to take care of Yan Wan. Looking at Yan Wan who had become Concubine Ling, Wei Yang felt both proud and happy.

"Oh my, our Wei family's daughter is really hardworking. She has won the emperor's favor and become a concubine so quickly! Just now when Zuo Lu and I went to kowtow to the emperor, we saw that kid Ling Yunche. So he is now a guard in front of the emperor?"

"No matter if he is a guard in the cold palace or in front of the emperor, he is a servant! Mother has long said that Ling Yunche is useless, but you treated him like a treasure. Now look how good it is to be your Concubine Ling. Even our Wei family has benefited from him!"

Zuo Lu also said: "Sister, you are now Empress Ling Fei, and I am the brother-in-law of the Emperor's brother-in-law. You should ask the Emperor's brother-in-law to give me a high official title so that I can have fun!"

Listening to the nonsense of the mother and son, if others heard it, how could she live a good life? Yan Wan was almost angry to death.

Yan Wan said sternly, "Mother, Zuo Lu, please be careful with your words! The emperor is the emperor, how can he be your brother-in-law? Mother, don't mention Ling Yunche again in the future, just pretend that we never knew him!"

Zuolu has always been pampered and protected at home. Even though Yanwan is now Concubine Ling, Zuolu still does not take her sister seriously and complains to Wei Yang.

"Mother, you see, my sister has become such a big shot since she became the imperial concubine that she even dares to boss me around! Mother, you should take care of her and ask the emperor and his brother-in-law to give me a high position so that you can also become a first-rank imperial lady!"

Wei Yang thought the same thing and wanted to scold Yan Wan. But Yan Wan was not the original owner, so why should she endure this humiliation?

Yan Wan slammed the table and said angrily, "How dare you! Don't you see where this place is? How can you be so wild?! I warn you, if you keep talking nonsense like this, I will kick you out."

"Report to the Emperor again and have your status as Baoyi Guanling restored, and sever your relationship with me!"

"Have you grown up, you dead girl? I'm your mother, how dare you!" Wei Yang was stunned for a moment, then said arrogantly.

Yan Wan was not afraid of this mother and son, and shouted, "Someone, come and capture this mother and son who are disrespectful to me!"

Although the others didn't understand why, they still rushed in and followed Yan Wan's orders.

Yan Wan stood up and said condescendingly: "Your behavior will definitely bring disaster to me and the Wei family in the future. I have already reported it to the emperor. If you don't change, I will punish you severely!"

Wei Yang and Zuo Lu were held down by the people in Yongshou Palace. Yan Wan did not show any concern on her face. The two of them immediately begged for mercy in panic.

Yan Wan said coldly: "If you want to keep this wealth and glory, I should change your greedy and outspoken nature!"

"I will send someone to teach Zorulu lessons and keep an eye on you at all times. If you dare to disobey them, they will not be polite to you!"

Wei Yang and Zuo Lu wanted to refute, but for some reason they suddenly felt that Yan Wan was doing this for their own good and they must obey her.

The two were given a warning by Yan Wan in Yongshou Palace. Not long after they left the palace, several strong guards came to the palace to watch their every move.
