Raising a concubine under her nose, the reborn mistress marries the prince

"The cold palace? You said that Concubine Mei was banished to the cold palace?" Concubine Zheng widened her eyes, her face full of disbelief. She could never have imagined that the once glorious and beloved Concubine Mei would end up like this.

Madam Zheng nodded and said in a low voice, "That's right! Now she can no longer be called Concubine Mei. She has been demoted to a noble lady, and a noble lady who has been banished to the cold palace."

Concubine Zheng frowned and asked in confusion: "What did she do during this period of time? Why did she suffer such a change?"

Madam Zheng quickly replied, "I heard that Concubine Mei was in charge of arranging accommodations for the ladies who came from Nanning. Madam, tell me, could it be that she accidentally offended the Emperor because of this assignment?"

Concubine Zheng shook her head slightly and analyzed thoughtfully: "I don't think so. Concubine Mei placed those women in a more remote corner of the palace. Logically, the emperor should not have too many objections to this. Have you ever seen the emperor go there?"

Madam Zheng thought about it carefully, and then replied: "Your Majesty, I have never seen the emperor set foot there."

Concubine Zheng continued, "The reason why the emperor took all these women into the harem was because he was worried that they would pass on information outside. And Concubine Mei put them together, maybe it just met the emperor's wishes."

“If that’s the case, then why did the emperor banish Concubine Mei to the cold palace?” Nanny Zheng was still puzzled.

Concubine Zheng sighed and said helplessly: "Alas, I can't figure out the emperor's thoughts. These past few days, I have been worried, thinking that the emperor would come to settle accounts with me. Who could have expected that the emperor would not even set foot in my palace."

Madam Zheng bowed slightly and said softly, "My lady, in my opinion, this may be a good thing.

However, Concubine Zheng did not directly respond to Nanny Zheng's words. She just frowned slightly, her eyes flickering, as if she had many doubts and worries in her heart.

All along, Concubine Zheng always had a vague feeling that the emperor seemed to have noticed what she had done.

Whenever she thought of this, her heart would involuntarily hang in the balance, as if it would fall into a bottomless abyss at any time.

She lived in fear all day, always worrying that the emperor would suddenly attack her and put her in an irretrievable situation.

However, what Concubine Zheng never expected was that when the emperor finally woke up from his coma, the first concubine to be punished was not her, but Concubine Mei!

When she heard the news, Concubine Zheng was stunned at first, and then she couldn't help feeling an indescribable sense of relief.

It seems that the emperor has not yet obtained solid evidence to convict her, otherwise, given his character, he would never let her go easily.

Just when Concubine Zheng was secretly rejoicing that she had escaped a disaster, Emperor Rong Sheng had already dealt with Concubine Mei in a swift and decisive manner.

With the fall of Concubine Mei, the entire palace instantly fell into chaos because it suddenly lost the person in charge.

Just when everyone was feeling anxious about this, the emperor made an unexpected decision - he actually handed over all the power over the six palaces to Concubine Jing!

When Concubine Jing received this decree, she was flattered.

She stared with wide eyes in disbelief at the eunuch who came to deliver her imperial edict, and was unable to utter a word for a long time.

She really couldn't understand why she had the merit to receive such great favor from the emperor? Moreover, he continuously handed good things to her.

At the same time, even Concubine Zheng, who always thought highly of herself, felt that something was wrong.

She stared at Concubine Jing closely, trying to find clues from her every move and every word, to figure out what tricks Concubine Jing had played behind the scenes to win such favor from the emperor.

Unfortunately, no matter how hard Concubine Zheng racked her brains to guess and analyze, she was never able to solve the mystery.

However, Concubine Zheng was completely unaware of this at this moment.

It turned out that the reason why the emperor treated Concubine Jing so differently was due to a strange and profound dream.

In that illusory dream, when Concubine Jing learned that the emperor was poisoned, she cried so hard that her heart was broken.

At that time, everyone around fled because they were afraid of Prince Jin, only Concubine Jing stayed by the emperor's side and took good care of him.

Concubine Jing was also executed for angering Prince Jin.

Although Concubine Jing was unaware of the emperor's poisoning, the emperor firmly believed that if he encountered any misfortune in the future, Concubine Jing would still guard him without hesitation and take care of him to the best of her ability.

Concubine Jing has always been famous inside and outside the palace for her indifferent, peaceful and non-confrontational character.

She was like a solitary orchid, not competing with other flowers for beauty, but possessing her own elegance and purity. She had never actively sought for rare jewels or noble status, because she had deep respect and love for the emperor in her heart and did not want to cause him even the slightest trouble.

Concubine Jing had been familiar with historical books since childhood, and she was well aware of the truth that "serving the emperor is like serving a tiger."

The intricate and treacherous power struggles in the palace are daunting for ordinary people, but she can handle it calmly.

However, the years of hardship have not changed her kind and innocent heart. She is like a bright lamp, silently emitting warm light in the dark palace, and always caring and loving the emperor.

How could Emperor Rong Sheng not feel extremely lucky when faced with such a gentle, considerate, understanding woman who treats him wholeheartedly?

In this palace world full of intrigue and scheming, this sincere and pure emotion is as precious as a rare treasure.

It was like the warm sun in winter, penetrating through layers of haze and shining on Rong Shengdi's already broken heart, bringing him a touch of warm and bright sunshine and soothing his exhausted soul.

Therefore, Emperor Rong Sheng wanted to give her the best.

The completely different circumstances of Concubine Mei and Concubine Jing left everyone puzzled.

But what happened next was even more unbelievable.
