After the concubines left, Concubine Yu was left alone in the Yiku Palace.

Rong Pei complained angrily, "Empress Ling is too arrogant. She dares to disrespect the Empress. The Empress must not tolerate her any longer!"

Ruyi was also very angry and said, "How dare Concubine Ling, a concubine with no family background and no children, to contradict me like this!"

Concubine Yu had not said a word just now, but was actually observing the other concubines. Seeing Ruyi's angry look, Concubine Yu hurried to calm her down.

"Sister, calm down. Concubine Ling is always pretending to be respectful, but today she acted out of character. It's really strange. This is probably Concubine Ling's conspiracy. Could it be that she wants to tell the emperor so that he can punish Rong Pei and make the decision for her?"

Ruyi calmed down and said, "The emperor will leave the palace to worship his ancestors in the near future. I am still in confinement and cannot accompany him. If your guess is correct, then the emperor must not know what happened today."

Rong Pei said: "I will block the news right away and also say hello to Li Yu."

Yupin was still a little worried, "Sister, you finally gave birth to a legitimate son, but Concubine Ling rushed to cause trouble at this critical juncture. We have to be on guard."

Ruyi has many rivals in the harem, such as Concubine Jia and Concubine Chun, but the one she hates the most is Concubine Ling.

Ruyi was angry and worried when she heard this. "Today, Concubine Ling compared me with Empress Xiaoxian everywhere, as if I couldn't compare to Empress Xiaoxian. She took advantage of the fact that she came from Changchun Palace and didn't take me seriously. She even dared to question me like that. How hateful!"

Yupin was thoughtful and guessed, "Sister, although Concubine Ling has no children yet, she is so favored that it is only a matter of time before she has children. The emperor misses Empress Xiaoxian, and she came from Changchun Palace. The emperor also asked her to help sister with palace affairs."

"Once Concubine Ling has a prince in the future, who is ten years younger than you, she might threaten the status of the twelfth prince! Didn't you say that the emperor is leaving the palace to worship his ancestors? He will definitely not be back in a short time. Why don't you seize Concubine Ling's power at this time?!"

Ruyi agreed with Yupin's words. Rongpei hated Li Changzai for embarrassing her and complained, "Li Changzai usually looks honest, but I don't know when she got in touch with Lingfei. Usually, she didn't say anything when Ke Guiren mocked her. Why did she suddenly refute today?"

"I think Concubine Li must have done this on purpose, just to make Concubine Ling embarrass the Empress in front of all the concubines!"

Yupin also nodded, "Li Changzai is also restless."

Ruyi has decided to severely punish Concubine Ling and Concubine Li to defend her dignity in the harem and the status of the twelfth prince!

The emperor was about to leave the palace, and Jinzhong took the opportunity to rush to Yongshou Palace.

"My Lord, when such a big thing happened, why didn't you tell Chunchan to tell me? Do you really want me to worry?"

Yan Wan leaned back on the recliner and asked, "Why, did the emperor know?"

Jinzhong shook his head. "The emperor is busy preparing for the ancestor worship and doesn't know what happened in Yikun Palace. I heard that someone from Yikun Palace came and told my master not to let the emperor know."

Yan Wan raised her eyebrows, "Oh? Didn't the Queen want to punish you and your disciple last time? Why did you ask Li Yu for help this time? Did Li Yu agree?"

Jinzhong sneered, "Master, don't you know who the Queen is? Isn't it that Imperial Doctor Jiang is still working in the Yikun Palace? My master doesn't want to give in to others, but to others. But in my opinion, my master is about to reach the end of his patience."

Yan Wan knew that Yupin stayed in Yikun Palace that day, and she must have been plotting something bad with Ruyi. They asked Li Yu to block the news, probably because they wanted to take advantage of the emperor's absence to find fault and punish her and Li Changzai.

Judging from the time, the fifth princess is probably already in Ruyi's belly. In the original book, it was because Yihuan committed suicide by burning herself and Ruyi was frightened that the fifth princess suffered from heart disease.

I wonder if the Fifth Princess will suffer from heart disease in this life?

Yan Wan asked, "How do you think the Queen and Concubine Yu will deal with me?"

Jinzhong said: "It's easy to punish Concubine Li, just find any excuse. But since your mistress is favored and powerful, she will definitely find a way to remove your power to handle palace affairs first, so that the queen can control you."

Yan Wan chuckled, "In the past few years, I have helped the Queen deal with palace affairs. Although I only deal with trivial matters, I can see the Queen's level. Jinzhong, if I let go of everything, can we still live in peace like now?"

Jinzhong felt that Yanwan was born into the palace and could do anything. The queen only knew how to ride on horses and walls, so how could she have the talent to be a housekeeper for her master?

Jinzhong smiled and said, "Of course not. What do you want to do, Master?"

Yan Wan: "She can do whatever she wants, and I can take a break. I want to see how she can manage the harem, will it be peaceful or chaotic?"

Jinzhong said, "I am leaving soon. I am afraid I will not be able to see you for a while. You must be careful when dealing with the Queen and Yupin in the palace alone."

"If there is anything, just let me know. Even if I am thousands of miles away, I will find a way to help you and prevent the Queen and others from bullying you!"

Yan Wan looked at Jin Zhong's sincere and reluctant eyes, and her heart was moved. Who would have thought that in the palace and in the other world, the person who cared about her the most and could help her the most was actually a eunuch!

Yan Wan raised her arm, and Jin Zhong quickly helped her up. Yan Wan nodded and said, "I will take care of myself, and you should take care of yourself too."

Jinzhong was very happy to receive Yanwan's concern and said, "In a few months, it will be the Mulan Autumn Hunt. The emperor will definitely take you there. Then you can leave the palace and relax."

Speaking of Mulan's Autumn Hunt, Yan Wan instantly thought of Ling Yunche. In the original book, Ling Yunche saved the emperor who was injured by an assassin while chasing a wild horse in Mulan's enclosure.

Only then did he regain the emperor's favor and returned from Mulan Paddock to serve in the Palace of Tranquil Longevity.

Although Ling Yunche was sent to the Old Summer Palace by the emperor in this life, there is still a three-year period between Ling Yunche and Ruyi.

Yan Wan felt that now that Ruyi had given birth to the twelfth prince and her position was secure, she would definitely find a way to transfer Ling Yunche back.

Ling Yunche can come back, but she can't let Ling Yunche return to the palace in glory!

Yan Wan suddenly thought of her adopted brother and asked, "By the way, how are my mother and Zuo Lu?"

Jinzhong said, "My Lord, rest assured. The old lady and Master Zuolu have changed a lot and made great progress. Not only the master and An Da we sent over, but even the neighbors are full of praise for them."

"Master Zuolu is not young anymore. He has studied for several years. When the emperor comes back, you can ask for a job for him."

Yan Wan already had an idea, "You are right. The Mulan Autumn Hunt is coming soon. You should ask Zuo Lu to practice horse riding and archery more. Maybe he can win the emperor's appreciation!"
