Although the Queen secretly cursed Concubine Qi for being stupid, she said calmly:
"Sister, you just moved to Suiyuxuan not long ago, and now you want to move to Yongshou Palace. This will make the emperor suspicious. You should live in Suiyuxuan for the time being. When the time comes, I will naturally help you ask the emperor to move out of Suiyuxuan."
The Queen said on the surface that she wanted to help Concubine Qi, but in fact she told herself in her heart that she would not help her go to Yongshou Palace, what a foolish woman! But Concubine Qi was her tool after all, and she would appropriately help her gain some opportunities to be favored by the Emperor.
Concubine Qi felt that what the Queen said made sense, so she nodded and said, "Your Majesty, what the Queen said is absolutely right!"
After Concubine Qi finished dressing the Queen, she chatted with her for a while. Before leaving, the Queen rewarded Concubine Qi with some jewels. Concubine Qi left Jingren Palace very happily.
Concubine Qi sat in a sedan chair, carried by four eunuchs in front and behind, and walked along the palace road. Jingtai, the personal maid beside her, said to Concubine Qi very happily: "The Queen is so kind to you, and she has thought of everything for you."
Concubine Qi said proudly: "It's not for anything else. The Queen and I are both Manchu military flags, so naturally we are treated more kindly."
Jingtai replied: "That's one thing. The young lady is favored by the emperor, so the empress will inevitably try to win over the young lady."
"I'll pick out the best of these things the Queen has awarded me and send them to Imperial Concubine Xi. It's also a token of my appreciation for our friendship." Imperial Concubine Qi felt in a very good mood at the moment.
Although she had noticed that Concubine Xi was deliberately distant towards her, her status was lower than hers, so she still had to try to please her. Maybe she could use her to her advantage in the future.
Concubine Qi couldn't help laughing out loud as she thought about it. At this time, Concubine Hua came towards her. She was sitting in a sedan chair that was more luxurious than Concubine Qi's. She just happened to see Concubine Qi's smug look and her shrill laughter.
Ever since Concubine Qi entered the palace, Concubine Hua had been somewhat displeased with her. As soon as she entered the palace, she acted very arrogantly, as if only her family was good. At the same time, she was particularly close to Zhen Huan.
In order to get close to Zhen Huan, Concubine Qi asked the Emperor to let her move into Sui Yuxuan. Everyone knew her purpose, but no one told her that Concubine Xi was about to move into Yongshou Palace. It seemed that everyone was making fun of Concubine Qi.
And today, Concubine Hua happened to meet Noble Lady Qi on the palace road. Judging from her direction, it was obvious that she had just come out of the Queen's Jingren Palace. She was really attentive.
What Hua Fei can't stand the most is trying to please both sides, trying to please Concubine Xi on the one hand and the Queen on the other. If she happens to run into someone trying to please the Queen, she must teach him a lesson.
At this moment, Concubine Qi was immersed in her own fantasy and did not notice that the person coming towards her was Concubine Hua.
Suddenly, a palace maid's voice came from the front of him: "How dare you! Who is so bold as to not greet the Empress Hua without paying respects?"
This scolding brought Concubine Qi back to her senses instantly. She looked carefully and found that it was Concubine Hua, Songzhi, Zhou Ninghai and others standing in front of her.
Her heart tightened, knowing that she might be in trouble this time. She didn't want to conflict with Concubine Hua in the first place. Although Concubine Hua's family was in decline and Nian Gengyao had retired to his hometown, Concubine Hua's position was still there. There was no need to please her, and even less to offend her.
Concubine Hua looked at Noble Lady Qi calmly, with an aura of majesty that came from not being angry.
Concubine Qi quickly got off the sedan chair, lowered her head, and bowed respectfully, saying, "Your servant pays respect to Her Majesty Hua Fei! I didn't know it was Her Majesty Hua Fei who came, please forgive me!"
Concubine Hua said coldly: "Who did I think it was? It turned out to be Concubine Qi! She was in such a hurry that she didn't even know I was here. Are you in a hurry to reincarnate?"
Concubine Qi lowered her head, not daring to look Hua Fei in the eye, and answered cautiously, "To answer your Majesty Hua Fei, I just came out of the Queen's Palace and was about to return to the palace."
Hua Fei sneered, her tone full of sarcasm: "Oh? I see. It seems that Concubine Qi has been very busy lately, busy trying to curry favor with the Queen, and she doesn't even take me seriously."
After hearing this, Concubine Qi's face changed, and she quickly explained: "I have absolutely no such intention! I just went to pay my respects to the Queen according to the rules, and I have no other thoughts."
Hua Fei was unmoved, and continued to sneer and sneer: "Humph, don't think that I don't know the little thoughts of you people. You think you are someone important just because you have surrendered to the Queen, hehe~~~."
Concubine Qi was so frightened that she trembled all over and quickly knelt down to beg for mercy: "Please forgive me, Concubine Hua! I never had such thoughts!"
As Concubine Hua looked at Concubine Qi kneeling on the ground, she felt more and more disgusted.
She decided to teach Concubine Qi a lesson and let her know who was the real master of the harem.
So, she sneered and said to Concubine Qi: "Since you forgot to perform the ceremony just now, I will punish you to kneel here for two hours."
After saying that, Concubine Hua said to the palace maids and eunuchs, "Let's go."
Concubine Qi knelt on the spot, lowered her head, dared not speak, and the corners of her mouth trembled uncontrollably. This Concubine Hua relied on her higher status than herself and deliberately made things difficult for her, punishing her to kneel on the palace road for two hours, which really pissed her off.
Fortunately, it was winter and she was wearing thick clothes, so her knees could still hold up, but it couldn't last for two hours. In addition, it was freezing cold in that winter, and she was shivering with cold before an hour had passed.
Jingtai, who was standing by, was anxious and distressed. He was almost crying and didn't know what to do.
Jingtai cursed angrily in a low voice: "My lady, this Concubine Hua is too much. If you kneel down like this, how can your knees bear it?"
After listening to Jingtai's words, Concubine Qi felt even more aggrieved. She had been pampered at home since she was a child, and had never been punished like this. Thinking about it, Concubine Qi actually started to cry.
She cried and muttered, "I can't swallow this anger. I must tell the emperor and let him make the decision for me."
Jingtai nodded, bent down to wipe the tears from Concubine Qi's face, and said, "My lady is right. We can't just let it go."
Concubine Qi nodded and said, "Yes, let's go find the emperor now. I want to tell him everything that happened today."
Two hours later, Concubine Qi finally felt relieved and couldn't wait to get up. Jingtai hurried forward to help Concubine Qi up, but because she had been kneeling for too long, her legs were numb, and as soon as she stood up, she fell back to the ground.
Jingtai said in panic: "My lord, please slow down."
Lady Qi glared at Jingtai and angrily scolded him, "Useless! Did I not give you food? Or did you do it on purpose?"
Jingtai immediately knelt on his knees and said, "Please calm down, my lady. I didn't mean it. Please forgive me!"
