Chapter 167: Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace: Call me Empress Dowager! (17)

"Thank you for the praise, Your Majesty, but this is not my sole achievement. It is all thanks to Chunchan and the others who have worked day and night. I have only fulfilled my duty as a mother." Lin Qinghe said modestly, not taking credit for it.

"Okay, okay, everyone in the Yongshou Palace deserves a reward." Hongli said with a smile.

"Your servant/slave thanks the Lord for His grace." The palace maids and eunuchs of Yongshou Palace knelt down happily to express their gratitude.

It's good to follow Concubine Ling. No matter what benefits come, I will never forget them.

After seeing the emperor off, a cheerful atmosphere filled the room. The servants in Yongshou Palace worked even harder because they had been rewarded.

Lin Qinghe sat quietly by the window, the embroidery needle in her hand moving across the soft cloth, making a slight sound as the needle passed through the cloth.

Her embroidery skills were not very good and she could only do simple mending of clothes.

These embroidery works were something she had figured out bit by bit after coming to this world. Now she could only embroider some not-so-delicate clothes for Yongcong.

Compared to the palace maids who were proficient in embroidery, her embroidery skills were much worse. Looking at the green bamboo that was gradually taking shape under her hands, Lin Qinghe curled her lips slightly, "Chunchan, I'm afraid the palace will be lively again during the New Year."

Chunchan, who was rewarded, had curved eyebrows and a smile as bright as a spring flower. "My dear, is there anything you want to eat? I will ask the kitchen to prepare it right away."

Lin Qinghe's eyes flickered. She thought for a moment and said, "I'll make some Eight Treasure Ruyi Cake, some green vegetables, and a portion of roast duck later."

The liveliness she was talking about was not the ordinary liveliness. Hailan has been very restless recently...

Lin Qinghe thought of what her spiritual sense had seen Concubine Yu doing recently, and couldn't help but put down the embroidery in her hands.

By the way, her title “Yu” has been revoked, and now she can no longer be called Yupin, but Haipin.

Who hosted this New Year's banquet?

It is Concubine Chun Su Lujun.

The current Queen Fucha Langya has passed away for some time, and naturally the concubines with high positions in the harem all want to compete for that position.

Su Lujun gave birth to four children, three princes and one princess, namely the third prince Yongzhang, the sixth prince Yongrong, her daughter Princess Heshuo Hejia Jingyan, and her adopted son, the eldest prince Yonghuang.

It is understandable that she wants to compete for the position of queen.

Moreover, because of Lin Qinghe's arrival and interference, Ruyi's camp was disrupted. Su Lujun was not framed by Hai Lan like in the original novel, and the third prince and the eldest prince were not rejected by the emperor at the queen's funeral.

Recently, Yupin has been very close to Jiapin. These two people with bad intentions are just trying to muddy the waters of the harem. (Both of them were demoted in Chapters 6,7 and .)

However, their calculations might have been wrong. They actually wanted to cause trouble for the Third Prince at the New Year's banquet. They really have no memory.

"Yuchan, get ready. I want to go to Zhongcui Palace to sit for a while tomorrow." Time passed quickly and the sun went down soon.

In the plot, Su Lujun is not a very intelligent person. Since the death of Fucha Langya, she has become a popular candidate for the position of queen.

Many concubines in the harem went to flatter Su Lujun in Zhongcui Palace, and Su Lujun has become more and more arrogant in recent days.

It was precisely because of these things that the emperor became suspicious.

After sunset, the night surged up and permeated like ink, dyeing the whole world into a deep black. The moon hung high in the sky, casting its cold light and covering the earth with a layer of silver gauze.

Another night passed, and on the second day, Lin Qinghe brought Yuchan to Zhongcui Palace.

"Noble Concubine Ling has arrived~" the young eunuch at the door announced loudly.

"Why is Concubine Ling here?" Su Lujun was a little surprised. She stopped what she was doing and hurried to greet her.

After all, everyone in the harem knew the title of Imperial Concubine Ling. She was favored by the emperor and was promoted to Imperial Concubine in a short period of time. She was also entrusted by the deceased Queen Fucha Langya to take care of the Seventh Prince.

The Seventh Prince is a legitimate prince, so Lin Qinghe is also the best candidate for the position of Queen.

"Sister, please don't blame me for bothering you. I just came to see you." Lin Qinghe said with a smile.

"Come and sit down." Su Lujun invited Lin Qinghe to sit down. They chatted for a while and then Lin Qinghe explained the purpose of their visit.

"Sister, the New Year is coming soon, we have to prepare well for the banquet."

"Of course. I wonder why Concubine Ling is here?" Su Lujun asked.

Lin Qinghe looked around and dismissed all the palace servants, "Sister, there are some things I have to say."

"My sister recently received news that someone at the annual banquet wanted to harm the Third Prince."

"What?" Su Lujun was a little flustered. She couldn't help but mutter, "What should I do?"

She stepped forward and held Lin Qinghe's hand tightly. "Where did you hear this news from, can you tell me?"

"It's Concubine Hai and Concubine Jia." Lin Qinghe pondered for a moment, "Concubine Hai has always had a good relationship with my sister, so it's natural that you don't believe it."

"But she has long wanted to harm her sister."

"Whether you believe it or not, let's set up a trap for me. If Haipin and Jiapin do something bad, you can be warned. How about that? To put it another way, you won't lose anything, right?"

Lin Qinghe convinced Su Lujun with just a few words. Seeing her nod doubtfully, Lin Qinghe smiled.

"Can I trust you, Concubine Ling?" Su Lujun seemed a little hesitant.

Lin Qinghe reached out and held her hand back, "Just trust me, I have no intention of harming the child."

"...Okay." Su Lujun nodded and agreed, as if she was convinced by Lin Qinghe.

After Lin Qinghe left, Zhongcui Palace suddenly closed its doors to visitors for a few days. She was obviously a little flustered. Concubine Ling said that Hai Lan would harm her child.

But...how is this possible?

Hai Lan was so gentle and treated her as a sister. Su Lujun couldn't help but think of the time they spent together with Ruyi.

She knew a little about what happened to Ruyi, and now she couldn't help but sigh when she thought about it.

Although she has no intention of harming anyone in this cannibalistic harem, it is inevitable that other people may have such bad intentions.

She also knew why Concubine Jia and Concubine Yu were demoted. Wasn't it because they wanted to murder the Seventh Prince and were retaliated against after being discovered by Empress Fucha?

Thinking of this, Su Lujun became alert and decided to listen to Concubine Ling and do as she said.

Don’t be afraid of ten thousand, but be afraid of what happens?

She doesn't want anything to happen to her son!

Just like that, Su Lujun, frightened by Lin Qinghe's words, closed the door and refused visitors for a few days.

The wind is biting and cold, but this cold air cannot stop people from welcoming the New Year with enthusiasm and joy. As time goes by, the New Year is approaching.

Lin Qinghe gently put the tiger-head hat on Yongcong's head, and patted the head of her son in this world.

Yongcong wore a tiger-head hat and had a bright smile on his face.

"Your Majesty, the time has come. We should go." Chunchan said hurriedly after she had done Lin Qinghe's makeup.
