An Lingrong's Rebirth: Changing Fate from the Suiyuxuan

Chapter 242: Congratulations

"My lady, please don't be too sad..."

In Jingren Palace, Jianqiu saw that the Queen had been depressed since Yongzheng issued the imperial edict, so she tried to persuade her, hoping that she could cheer up.

"sad?"

The Queen murmured to herself, and then burst into laughter, "Haha, why should I be sad? This is not the first time that the Emperor has done this. If I were sad every time, wouldn't I have to die?"

"How can the Queen say such a thing?"

Jianqiu's original intention was to cheer up her master, but she didn't expect that her words not only failed to have a good effect, but made the queen even more unhappy.

Thinking of this, Jianqiu knelt down quickly, "My Queen!"

"Okay, stop talking nonsense."

The Queen interrupted Jianqiu's apology and then asked, "How is Concubine Chun?"

Ever since Chun'er last met the Queen at the Locust Gate and offered some "suggestions", the Queen once again looked at him with a different eye.

Then, the Queen not only asked Jianqiu to send back the two old maids who had served Chun'er, but also instructed Jianqiu to find some reliable people to take good care of Chun Changzai.

In the Queen's view, it doesn't matter if he is young, because he will be useful in two years.

Therefore, Jianqiu did not dare to be careless. During this period, she followed the Queen's request and had people carefully train Chun Changzai to make sure she became someone who could satisfy the Emperor.

"I will follow your Majesty's orders and will not slack off in the slightest!"

Jianqiu reported the results of her "hard work" to the queen one by one. Seeing that the queen looked normal, she felt slightly relieved.

If the Empress' attention can be diverted through Chun Changzai, that itself is a good thing!

"Well, continue to teach her, but don't rush it!"

After listening to Jianqiu's words, the queen finally nodded, showing a hint of satisfaction, but at the same time she did not forget to remind Jianqiu to avoid being "hasty".

"Don't worry, Madam. I know what I am doing and will not lose my composure."

Jianqiu remembered the queen's instructions, and seeing that the queen had no other instructions, she went to do other things.

"and many more!"

At this moment, the queen suddenly called out to Jianqiu.

"Does your Majesty have any other instructions?"

Jianqiu stopped and turned to look at the queen, waiting for further instructions from her master.

"I remember that Concubine Qi has not been feeling well these past two days. Please go to Changchun Palace and bring two boxes of the newly-tributed Dong'e Ejiao so that Concubine Qi can replenish her blood. Also, tell Concubine Qi that I will take care of the Third Prince and she only needs to focus on recuperating."

The queen took off the golden armor inlaid with fine pearls and jade and placed it on the table beside her. After saying this, she slowly laughed.

"Yes, I understand!"

Jianqiu knew that the Queen and Concubine Qi both had high hopes for the Third Prince Hongshi.

However, unlike Concubine Qi who only knew how to urge her son to make progress in the hope that he would be favored by the emperor one day, the Queen's plan was very clear.

The empress knew that she was no longer at the right age to have a baby. In addition, she had almost no favor from Emperor Yongzheng. Even if she wanted to have a child, it would be as difficult as ascending to heaven.

As Hongshi grew older, he was one of the few sons of the emperor, and Concubine Qi's origin was more noble than the mothers of the Fourth and Fifth Princes.

In this situation, the queen had no other choice but to support Hongshi!

Therefore, now that Nian Shilan is a threat again, the Queen naturally has to start making plans for the future.

"Concubine Qi is dull, and the Third Prince isn't smart either, but... it's fine this way."

Looking at Jianqiu's departing figure, the queen murmured to herself, "Being too smart is not a good thing!"

……

Just as the news that Concubine Hua was re-granted the power to assist in managing the six palaces swept across the six palaces, Cao Qinmo suddenly knocked over the tea in her hand.

Even though the scalding hot tea spilled on her hands, she seemed to be oblivious to it, as if she didn't feel any pain. Her expression was extremely ugly.

"My lord! Your hand!"

The palace maid who was in charge of serving on the side was shocked when she saw this scene.

"hiss……"

When the palace maid shouted, Cao Qinmo also felt the pain in her hand. At this time, she took a breath, but still shook her head at the palace maid, indicating that she was fine.

She was in a state of confusion, but after being splashed with scalding tea, she regained consciousness.

"Hey, what should I do?"

Cao Qinmo never expected that Concubine Hua, who was thought to have been alienated by Yongzheng, would suddenly make a comeback.

The power to assist in managing the six palaces is enough to challenge the authority of the queen!

The reason why Concubine Hua was so arrogant before, besides because she was favored by the Emperor, wasn't it because she held great power?

After the Emperor eliminated Hua Fei's power on the pretext of something, although Hua Fei was still in favor, she was not so confident when arguing with the Queen.

Now that Concubine Hua has regained power in the palace, it means that she will soon return to her old ways.

"No, we still have to go there quickly!"

Cao Qinmo knew that she had made a wrong move. She thought that Concubine Hua was no longer capable, so she could join forces with Zhen Huan to fight against Concubine Hua.

Now that the situation has taken a dramatic turn, she naturally has to hurry to Yikun Palace.

Regardless of whether Concubine Hua had already noticed any signs of trouble, she was originally someone close to him. After Su Peisheng announced the matter to the six palaces, she did not go to Yikun Palace to congratulate him. Her intention to betray was too blatant!

However, the moment she stepped out of the palace gate, Cao Qinmo became hesitant again.

"Little Master, what's wrong?"

Her maid looked at the stunned Cao Qinmo, not understanding what he was thinking.

"No, we can't go now!"

Cao Qinmo shook her head, not caring about the palace maid's puzzled look. She turned around and went back to the room to search for a while. Finally, she found a box and muttered to herself, "It's all thanks to you!"

After saying that, Cao Qinmo put the small wooden box in his arms and walked out again.

……

The Yikun Palace welcomed a great celebration, so it was naturally decorated with lights and lanterns. At the same time, the concubines rushed forward to congratulate, and it was extremely lively for a while.

In addition to the concubines, there were countless palace maids and eunuchs working in various places who came here one after another to pay their respects to Concubine Hua.

It was said to be a visit to pay respects, but the main purpose was to make his presence felt in front of Concubine Hua so that the lady would be familiar with him, which might bring him benefits in the future.

When Cao Qinmo came over and saw this scene, he was very glad of his decision.

Fortunately, she chose to come, otherwise this matter would be really hard to say.

When Cao Qinmo thought of the things in the box in his arms, he felt certain in his heart, and then he walked into the Yikun Palace with his head held high.
