In order to eat, I signed a contract with the system

The plot has inertia. In this life, Zhen Huan has one less Huanbi and one more Chen Qing by her side. Fortunately, Yu Yin doesn't know. If she knew, she would have dragged Zhen Yuandao out and given him a good scolding.

He brought a good illegitimate daughter back home but didn't give her an identity. Instead, he asked her to be a maid for the legitimate daughter. She was allowed to be a maid, but he insisted on giving her a name like "Jia Mai", as if he was afraid that others would know from the name that she was not a real maid. It's disgusting.

Because of a few casual things Wen Yuan did when she first entered the palace, her character was exposed. Everyone in the harem knew that although she was a little arrogant and simple, she was indeed simple-minded and had no brains. Even the emperor knew that she could only compete for favor and talk with everyone, and she had no ability to do any other calculations.

Therefore, apart from the Queen secretly continuing to send infertility items to Chuxiu Palace and Concubine Hua occasionally scolding her, she did not suffer any other hardships. Everything developed as it did in the plot. Shen Meizhuang, the noble lady Shen, took over the power of the palace and was regarded as a thorn in the side by Concubine Hua, who often called Shen Meizhuang over to humiliate her under the pretext of teaching her the power of the palace.

Although Zhen Huan had already slept with the emperor in this life and did not stay in the Sui Yuxuan without going out, Concubine Hua's torture still had nothing to do with her. After all, Zhen Huan was favored, and although Concubine Hua hated her, she did not dare to do anything too much, so Shen Meiyu was still the only one who was tortured by Concubine Hua.

In this life, Noble Lady Fucha was not favored, and Concubine Hua was too lazy to care about her. Wen Yuan had a high status and was favored and did not interfere in the palace power. Concubine Hua looked down on her and was too lazy to torture her. Only Shen Meizhuang had to bear everything.

As the New Year was approaching, a palace banquet was held in the palace. Zhen Huan had no excuse to leave and go to the Plum Garden to make a wish, but the Emperor was still aroused by the longing for her by a bottle of red plums at the banquet, so he stood up and left the banquet and walked towards the Plum Garden.

In the plot, the red plums were specially prepared by the Queen, just to let Zhen Huan come out to check and balance Hua Fei, but for some reason in this life, even without the Queen's order, the bottle of red plums still appeared at the banquet. The Queen wanted to follow the Emperor but was rejected, so she had no choice but to ask Prince Guo to quietly follow and protect him.

Wen Yuan only wanted fame and fortune, and had no feelings for the emperor at all. Long before she entered the palace, Yu Yin had told her all the right and wrongs between the emperor and Empress Chunyuan, the emperor and the current empress, and Empress Chunyuan and the current empress.

Therefore, seeing the emperor's behavior of "seeing things reminds me of someone", Wen Yuan expressed that she didn't understand but respected it. Anyway, today was the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and the emperor would not come to Chuxiu Palace anyway, so no matter where the emperor planned to go or what he planned to do tonight, it had nothing to do with Wen Yuan.

Just because Wen Yuan doesn't care doesn't mean that others don't care. Concubine Hua couldn't help but want to follow the emperor but was rejected. She drank wine and complained to herself in anger.

Zhen Huan also noticed it, but she didn't understand what happened. However, out of habit, she still silently kept in mind the fact that seeing red plums would make the emperor lose his composure. She planned to find out after the night banquet what special meaning red plums have in the emperor's heart. Maybe she could use it in the future!

On the second day of the night banquet, the plots such as "I am a palace maid who wet my shoes and socks" and "He is the prince who took the baby elephant" were missing, but there was still a new girl named Yu Guan who could sing Kunqu in the palace. In just a few days, this girl became Yu Da Ying and was very favored.

Last night, Shen Meizhuang and Yu Da Ying met on a narrow road in the palace where the road was blocked by heavy snow. Yu Da Ying was so arrogant because of her favor that she asked Shen Meizhuang, a noble lady, to give way to her, but Shen Meizhuang chose to endure it in silence.

Wen Yuan was very disdainful when she heard about this. She had always looked down on Shen Meiyu and Zhen Huan. Not only did she take her position as a matter of course when they paid their respects for the first time, she also always acted as if everyone else relied on their family background and beauty, while only they were favored because of their talent and temperament.

Every time they spoke to Wen Yuan, they always used a tone of admonition and persuasion, as if Wen Yuan was a rude person who didn't know etiquette, and only they were well-behaved and polite. However, Wen Yuan seemed smart but was actually not good at speaking, and she really couldn't beat those two people in an argument. When she thought of such a scene, Wen Yuan couldn't help but grit her teeth in anger.

"Humph, a bitch is a bitch. No matter how nice she sounds, isn't she still a coward? She was actually frightened by a newcomer. A noble lady gave way to a maid. It's funny to think about it!"

It's not just Wen Yuan. Except for Jingpin who lives in the same palace with Shen Meizhuang, and Zhen Huan and An Lingrong who are good friends with Shen Meizhuang, all the women in the harem are secretly making fun of Shen Meizhuang.

After learning about this, Shen Meizhuang was so ashamed that she didn't go out for several days. But she could soon breathe a sigh of relief, because the scene in the plot where An Lingrong "returned the jade intact to Zhao" was staged as expected. Now An Lingrong became the one that everyone in the harem laughed at. This fact made An Lingrong, who was already ashamed and angry, silently hate Shen Meizhuang.

The relationship between An Lingrong and Shen Meiyu was originally very fragile, and they basically relied on Zhen Huan to act as a link between them. When they first entered the palace, Shen Meiyu and the others were put under house arrest, but their root An Lingrong was fine.

Such a contrast made Shen Meizhuang somewhat dissatisfied, and she even suspected deep down that An Lingrong was secretly laughing at them behind their backs. For this reason, even though she knew that An Lingrong and they were an agreed ally, it was still difficult for Shen Meizhuang to put aside her pride and truly interact with her.

Later, because An Lingrong had not yet entered the emperor's bedchamber, Shen Meizhuang and the others were able to regain their face through An Lingrong, and gradually acted like true sisters.

Shen Meizhuang's obvious psychological expression was clearly understood by the always careful and sensitive An Lingrong. However, for the sake of her beloved sister Zhen, An Lingrong chose to swallow all the grievances.

Now because of her own affairs, Shen Meizhuang's affairs became a thing of the past and no one mentioned them anymore. An Lingrong not only secretly hated her for stealing her beloved Miaoyin, but also felt resentful towards Shen Meizhuang and Zhen Huan who pretended to comfort her.

No matter how favored Madam Miaoyin is now, Wen Yuan has no interest in caring about it at all.

According to Yu Yin's plan, after the New Year, Wen Yuan will be sixteen years old and can get pregnant and have children. Now all the bad things sent by the Queen to Chuxiu Palace have been cleaned up by the two capable palace maids Nuanchu and Xiuxia. Those that can be replaced have been replaced, and those that cannot be replaced have been directly put into the warehouse to collect dust.

Not only that, Wen Yuan had been taking care of her body since before entering the palace, and her journey of recuperation never stopped even after entering the palace. However, in order not to be discovered by others, Wen Yuan adopted the method of food supplements for recuperation instead of drinking any pregnancy-maintaining medicine.

Although Yuyin no longer has a medical system in this life, she still knows the modern scientific method of calculating the ovulation date, and she has taught this method to Xiuxia a long time ago.

After Wen Yuan entered the palace, the dates for her vying for favor were almost always timed with her ovulation period. The rest of the time, Wen Yuan just went with the flow. If the emperor was coming, she would receive him well and make him happy. If he didn't come, she would visit him everywhere according to her mood, working hard for the future of her children.
