After Yu Ying'er's rebirth, she became addicted to teasing Concubine Hua

"You are honest." The emperor said this without any emotion, and it was unclear whether he was happy or angry. "What's your name?"

"My humble name is Yu Ying'er." Yu Ying'er only answered the emperor's question while kneeling without being humble or arrogant, her beautiful face full of admiration and worry.

"It is really fate that you have heard this poem. There are already enough plum blossoms in Yime Garden, but I lack a touch of plum fragrance. You will stay and serve me in the future." The emperor liked Yu Ying'er and she was well-behaved, so he gave her such a favor.

Yu Ying'er was somewhat disappointed that she failed to replace Zhen Huan and didn't even get an official concubine. However, she didn't dare to complain at all. She just listened carefully to Qi Qi's instructions, thanked her, and then withdrew politely. This move is called retreat in order to advance.

Su Peisheng stepped forward to congratulate him. Yu Ying'er's eyes flickered slightly, and she quickly took out two silver coins from her sleeve and stuffed them into Su Peisheng's hands, smiling sweetly: "Thank you, Eunuch Su, and please have some tea."

The emperor was playing chess inside, so he couldn't pay attention to what was happening outside, so Su Peisheng simply accepted the silver nude pieces and said a few polite words. Su Peisheng didn't really need the two silver nude pieces, but he felt that Yu Ying'er was not an ordinary person, so accepting the silver nude pieces was a good deal.

Since then, Yu Ying'er successfully entered the Yangxin Palace and became a maid serving the emperor, with a single bedroom. Although it was not as big as the collective bedroom in Yimei Garden, it was better for single people to live in, spacious and bright.

"Qiqi, why should we try to please that rootless thing for no reason?" Yu Ying'er always felt bad about the two silver coins she had handed over. That was half a month's salary for her, and she was very unhappy about giving it to Su Peisheng for nothing.

Qiqi taught him, "You can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a lamb. Su Peisheng is the chief steward in front of the emperor after all. It will do more good than harm if you have a better relationship with him."

"What does that have to do with sacrificing a child to catch a wolf? I don't have a child, so why would I try to catch a wolf?" Yu Ying'er showed a clear and stupid look, her head full of doubts.

"Um... don't worry about it. If you want revenge and want to complete the task, you'd better follow me and listen to me." Qiqi knew that Yu Ying'er was stupid, but she didn't expect that she was so stupid and didn't know it.

Yu Ying'er nodded honestly and didn't dare to speak.

Yu Ying'er was in charge of serving the emperor's tea and snacks. Under Qiqi's guidance, she would occasionally sing a few lines of Kunqu opera, and would hum softly when there were people around, so as to give Su Peisheng the impression that she could sing for fun and relieve his boredom. In this way, if there was an opportunity in the future, Su Peisheng would think of her first.

Qiqi said that she was not the queen, but a concubine, so she did not need to act in a pretentious manner, but only needed to do her best to seek benefits for herself. Therefore, in addition to the vague hints, Yu Ying'er also followed Qiqi to learn how to read and take care of her body, skin and appearance, etc., which was bound to increase her value.

Qiqi always reminds Yu Ying'er that opportunities always come to those who are prepared. Maybe you were not able to use it when you were prepared, but you can still use it in the future.

Yu Ying'er also said that she is the one who can endure hardships the most. As long as Qiqi is willing to teach, she is willing to learn. As long as it can make her life better, she is willing to try anything.

Yu Ying'er is slow to think and stupid, but she is obedient.

On that day, Su Peisheng walked up to Yu Ying'er with a serious face. At that time, Yu Ying'er was drying tea leaves.

"Yu Ying'er."

Hearing Su Peisheng's call, Yu Ying'er immediately stopped what she was doing, turned around and asked gently and respectfully: "Eunuch Su, what do you want me to do?"

"I heard that you are good at singing Kunqu Opera?" Su Peisheng asked while practicing Tai Chi with him, pretending not to know, his mind was changing.

Yu Ying'er replied, "I have learned Kunqu Opera since I was a child. I cannot say that I am proficient in it, but I can sing two pieces completely."

"Well, that's good. You follow me." Su Peisheng looked at the inner room of the Palace of Tranquil Longevity and finally made up his mind.

Su Peisheng walked in, motioned Yu Ying'er to kneel outside the cubicle, and sang his best song.

Yinzhen, who closed his eyes and let Su Peisheng massage his temples, seemed to be relieved by the fresh music. His frowning brows were unconsciously smoothed because of his worries, and he seemed to be really enjoying it.

The trivial matters in the harem, the miscellaneous affairs of the court, the threats from Nian Gengyao and Longkodo all kept the emperor busy for a moment. Only the song allowed him to relax for a quarter of an hour, making the emperor even more fascinated.

"Who is singing this song?" Yinzhen asked after the song was over.

Su Peisheng hurriedly informed the emperor, but his heart was beating fast.

"I never thought you could sing Kunqu Opera." Yinzhen's mind flashed back to the beautiful face and admiring expression of Yu Ying'er when he first met her, and he seemed to have some ideas in his mind.

Yu Ying'er answered through the wind, "I have learned two songs from my father since I was young. With the advice of Eunuch Su, I will sing them for His Majesty. I hope it can relieve His Majesty's boredom."

Having gained an advantage, he naturally did not forget to inform the emperor. This was also due to the contribution of Eunuch Su, and there was absolutely no reason for him to want to enjoy it all alone.

Yu Ying'er kept Qiqi's words firmly in her heart and dared not forget them at all.

Hearing this, Yinzhen didn't know what he was thinking of, and he laughed: "Come in and sing another song for me."

After receiving the order, Yu Ying'er did as she was told.

In terms of scheming, reading and literacy, she was a little behind, but when it came to singing, she thought she was as good as anyone.

The songs were sung one after another without any repetition, and Yu Ying'er's throat became a little hoarse from singing, which added a bit of charm to her and made her very attractive.

Yinzhen's eyes flashed with an obscure light, and he didn't want to embarrass Yu Ying'er, so he immediately gave her some tea. Then he watched Yu Ying'er drinking it bit by bit like a kitten, and saw satisfaction on her face. He even thought that this girl was not greedy, and he was very satisfied. When he thought of his inner throbbing, he made up his mind.

"Su Peisheng, the imperial maid Yu Ying'er is very much to my liking, so I hereby confer her the title of concubine and grant her the right to live in the west side hall of Chuxiu Palace." Yinzhen was quite patient with women who were willing to spend time and effort to win his favor. As long as he liked her, whether she was a palace maid or a concubine was just a matter of a word from him.

Yu Ying'er heard this, thinking that her first title was one level higher than her previous life, she was overjoyed and immediately knelt down and said, "I accept your order. Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Su Peisheng, choose a maid for Yu Ying and place her in Chuxiu Palace first." Yinzhen waved his hand and generously let Yu Ying'er leave.

After leaving the Yangxin Palace, Su Peisheng said with a smile: "Congratulations, young lady."

"I should thank Eunuch Su. If it weren't for Eunuch Su's support, Ying'er wouldn't be where she is today. Ying'er will definitely never forget Eunuch Su's kindness." Yu Ying'er tried hard to control her expression and read the manuscript given by Qiqi very seriously. She found it very tongue-twisting.

Su Peisheng laughed happily, and the wrinkles on his face became more obvious with his smile. He quickly appointed a maid to serve Yu Ying'er and took Yu Ying'er to familiarize herself with Chuxiu Palace.

Soon, the news that Yu Ying'er was canonized as a concubine spread, and Yu Ying'er also brought a little maid rewarded by the emperor to the west side hall of Chuxiu Palace, which had already been tidied up.

Since she was originally a member of the palace, and more importantly a palace maid, there was nothing for her to pack. Therefore, Yu Ying'er just followed Qiqi's instructions and gave instructions to the palace maids and eunuchs in the west side hall, and then went to the east side hall to pay a visit to Concubine Xin.

Yu Ying'er was not very happy when she thought about the unpleasant things she had done with Xin Changzai in her previous life. She also felt that Xin Changzai was only one level higher than her and there was no need for her to pay her a visit.

Naturally, Qiqi criticized this idea again.

When she arrived at the East Side Hall, she reported and then stepped into the hall. She looked over the screen curtain and saw Concubine Xin who was embroidering clothes. The clothes looked like those for a little girl, so she guessed they were prepared for the eldest princess.

"I promised Yu Ying'er to meet Concubine Xin." Yu Ying'er was very well-behaved, not at all showing any sign of being arrogant just because she was the new favorite.

Perhaps because Yu Ying'er looked quite pleasing, and Xin Changzai had no intention of competing for favor, she did not embarrass Yu Ying'er. She put the cloth in her hand back into her pocket and said, "Sister, please get up quickly and serve tea."

Yu Ying'er took a sip and praised, "Sister, this tea is really delicious, but it doesn't seem like the tea you drink in the palace, does it?"
