Chapter 151: Obedience Test, Concubine Hua's Sarcasm
"Also, since Concubine Qi is under house arrest, there is no need to follow the rules for a concubine. Give her the rules for a noble lady instead."
The emperor looked at Fu Cha Zhixi, whose face was pale, and couldn't help but reach out to smooth away the other's frown.
"Yes, I will do it right away."
Su Peisheng lowered his head, hiding the surprise in his eyes, and bowed respectfully.
He didn't expect that Concubine Xiang now had such a status in the emperor's heart. Even with Concubine Qi, the emperor did not show any mercy.
After all, everyone knows that Concubine Qi values the Third Prince the most. Now that the Third Prince has been taken away from her, the punishment is even more terrible than being demoted.
What's more, she was only given the share of a noble lady named Concubine Qi, which was a demotion of two levels. She just still had the title of a concubine.
Xiangpin's pillow talk was really powerful. She just cried in front of the emperor, but the emperor treated Qifei, an old lady who had accompanied him for many years, so cruelly.
However, Concubine Xiang had indeed suffered a great injustice, so it was understandable why the emperor would do this.
Su Peisheng regretted again that he made the decision too hastily. If he had known that Xiangpin was so favored, he should have moved Jinxi to Chengqian Palace.
When Fu Cha Zhixi woke up again the next day, he felt his eyes were dry.
Yuhu quickly realized that the queen had woken up, and quickly poured a cup of water at a suitable temperature and handed it to the queen.
"You are awake, Madam. The old lady has already had breakfast and is walking in the yard."
"is it?"
"Did you sleep well last night, mother?"
Fucha Zhixi asked with some concern.
"Don't worry, Madam, she rested well, but she went to bed early last night, so she woke up early today."
Upon hearing this, Yu Hu quickly explained.
"That's good. Has the emperor left?"
Fucha Zhixi asked.
"The Emperor left a long time ago, but before he left, he told the servants not to wake the Empress too early, saying that the Empress needed to rest more since she was pregnant."
Yuhu said with a smile.
"My queen, do you know what the emperor said when you fell asleep last night?"
Yuhu looked at Fucha Zhixi mysteriously and said.
When the emperor gave orders to Su Peisheng last night, he did not let the servants who served him personally to leave, so she, Suqin and Aunt Fangqiu all knew the orders given by the emperor.
"What did the Emperor say?"
Fu Cha Zhixi was pretending to be asleep at first last night, perhaps because of her pregnancy, but later she actually fell asleep in the emperor's arms.
As for how she got to bed and what the emperor said, she knew nothing at all.
Yuhu smiled and told him everything the emperor had said last night.
Fu Cha Zhixi never expected that the effect of her performance last night would be so good. Although the emperor did not punish Concubine Qi directly, taking away the Third Prince and reducing her allowance were much more serious than punishment.
Especially the Third Prince. Everyone knows that the Third Prince is the person Concubine Qi values the most. The Emperor's move is enough to make Concubine Qi heartbroken.
"Your Majesty, you see, the Emperor still values you."
Seeing that Fu Cha Zhixi did not show any joy on his face after hearing this, Yu Hu spoke tentatively.
"Your Majesty, perhaps you value me, but this value is based on my understanding."
"If I had not obeyed the emperor and tried to force him to seek justice, how could the emperor have done this?"
Fu Cha Zhixi thought very clearly. She had always felt that the emperor was trying to PUA all the women in the palace and test their obedience.
"Miss."
The smile on Yu Hu's face subconsciously disappeared. She didn't expect Fu Cha Zhixi to react like this, and for a moment she didn't know what to say.
"This is a good thing. This way, Concubine Qi can calm down for a while."
Fu Cha Zhixi smiled and looked at Yu Hu and spoke.
"That's what the queen said."
Yuhu spoke up.
"In half a month it will be the princess' birthday. She is the youngest child in the palace. Turning one year old is a big day and we must celebrate it properly."
The Queen looked at the concubines who were seated down, and her eyes inadvertently glanced at Concubine Hua.
Seeing that she was dressed much more low-key than before, I couldn't help but sneer in my heart.
"Your Majesty's meaning is very simple. This birthday happens to be held in this garden. Although it cannot be compared to the palace, it still cannot be too simple. It must be lively and exciting."
The Queen had a tolerant and loving smile on her face, and anyone who saw her would praise her as being like the mother of the nation.
"I have already given instructions to the people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs to carefully prepare Wen Yi's birthday banquet."
"Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty. I, your concubine, would like to thank you on behalf of the princess."
Although Concubine Cao was still dressed in an old-fashioned way and looked gloomy, the smile on her face made her look more radiant.
She had never expected that her daughter Wen Yi, who was just a princess, could be so valued by the emperor. This made her even more determined to earn more favor for Wen Yi so that Wen Yi could live a decent life like she does now.
"Lady Cao, you have given birth to a child for the Emperor and you are a meritorious service to the royal family. You don't have to do this."
The queen smiled and waved to the kneeling Concubine Cao, signaling her to stand up.
"Now that the emperor has few children, all the sisters present here should serve the emperor wholeheartedly and do their best to give birth to children for him as soon as possible."
"You are all old people in this palace, but the new concubine Xiang is pregnant with a dragon child. You should work harder."
The Queen never forgets to arouse the hatred for Fucha Zhishila, and at the same time, she attacks Hua Fei crazily using the issue of offspring.
You have to know that among these old people, Concubine Hua, as the most favored concubine, has not conceived a royal heir for so many years. This alone is enough to break Concubine Hua's defense.
"The emperor doesn't have many children, but isn't there one in this garden?"
Hua Fei naturally knew that the Queen's words were not well-intentioned. While she was jealous of Xiangpin, she couldn't help but mock her.
"Empress Hua, you can't say that."
Seeing that the atmosphere in the room suddenly became stagnant because of Concubine Hua's words, Concubine Cao had no choice but to remind her in a low voice.
"Why can't I say this? Everyone thinks this is a taboo, but I don't think so."
Not only did Concubine Hua not restrain herself at all, she also deliberately turned up the volume to ensure that everyone could hear her voice.
"Hua Fei, there are some things that the Emperor doesn't like to mention. Do you really have to mention them?"
The Queen interrupted Hua Fei with a frown on her face.
The Queen naturally knew that the Emperor disliked the Fourth Prince, and as his wife she also disliked the child.
"Empress, even though the Fourth Prince's biological mother was a lowly maid, the Fourth Prince is still the Emperor's child, and he is the Third Prince's biological brother anyway."
