Chapter 360: The Concubine Who Was Buried with the Emperor VS The Ruthless and Romantic Emperor 8
Yu Yao's eyes moved, her eyebrows and eyes were smiling, and she curled her lips and chuckled: "How dare I be jealous of the emperor? The emperor is the emperor, and there are three thousand beauties in the harem. If everyone is jealous, then I will be jealous to death, right?"

After hearing her words, Emperor Jing laughed out loud, looking extremely happy. He let go of the hand that was hooking her chin and gently scratched the tip of her nose. "Your little mouth is getting better and better at talking. Well, I'll just do as you say."

An Hai, the head eunuch of the Jingshifang, saw the interaction between the two and secretly glanced at Yu Yao with a look of scrutiny.

The word of mouth in front of the emperor was very tight, and not a single piece of information was leaked.

Judging from the emperor's attitude towards this palace maid, it is obvious that they have been good to each other for a long time.

I’m afraid there will be another master in this harem.

An Hai didn't know Yu Yao's true identity, nor did he recognize her. He just thought she was a palace maid serving in front of the emperor, or a palace maid in the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

I was thinking about it and decided to ask someone whether I should prepare the green card in advance.

Judging from the emperor's attitude, he will be hanged sooner or later.

Emperor Jing had no idea what An Hai was thinking. He flirted with Yu Yao for a few words, then let her go and looked at the eunuch, "Present it."

When An Hai heard this, he knew that the emperor was going to flip the cards. He breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly asked the people behind him to pass the green card over.

Emperor Jing's eyes swept across the rows of green-headed cards, and finally stopped on the green-headed cards of Concubine Zhen and Concubine Li, as if he was struggling to decide who to choose.

Yu Yao saw it and glanced at the two green cards inconspicuously. Seeing the words "Zhen Fei" and "Li Fei" engraved on them, she knew that these two were favored.

Zhen means treasure, which shows how special this woman is in Rong Yuan's heart.

Li means beautiful. She must have a good appearance, otherwise she would not be worthy of the title Li.

She thought that Emperor Jing would turn over one of the two, but he glanced at the green cards of the two and actually turned over Yunpin's green card, "Let's go to her tonight, go to Yunpin."

She didn't know who Concubine Yun was, nor did she know much about Emperor Jing's harem, but the fact that she was the first to sleep with the new emperor at the beginning of his reign was enough to show that this person was no ordinary person.

Yu Yao didn't understand the reason, but the people in Jingshifang understood it a little.

Concubine Yun's appearance was not outstanding, she could only be considered dignified. She was not favored by anyone on a daily basis. She was a low-key person and never made enemies with anyone. She seemed to be unknown.

But she was the only one among the emperor's many women who had ever made him happy.

Although the child miscarried within three months, it at least proved that Concubine Yun was fertile.

Who made the emperor over 20 years old? Not to mention having children, he doesn't even have a daughter. Fortunately, the emperor is young, otherwise the royal family would have written a memorial to urge him to do so.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

An Hai responded respectfully and quickly left with the people from Jingshifang.

Yu Yao didn't feel disappointed. Anyway, she didn't like Emperor Jing and had no plans to conquer him.

In the eyes of Emperor Jing, her demeanor looked like a forced smile. He couldn't help but feel pity for her. He gently took her hand and said softly, "Go back first. I will grant you a position tomorrow."

Although she knew that Emperor Jing would give her a position sooner or later, she was still very happy to hear it. She bowed and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

When Emperor Jing saw her like this, his heart softened a little. He pulled her hand over, gently spread out her palm, and wrote the word "noble lady" on her palm with his fingertips.

He stared at her with a smile and asked softly, "Do you like it?"

Feeling the warmth of my palm and the touch of the words, I knew that he had written the word "noble man", which also meant that he wanted to confer the title of noble man on himself.

Yu Yao lowered her eyes slightly. Although the noble lady was of the sixth rank, she was still a low-ranking concubine.

But for her status, it's already pretty good.

When the original owner first entered the late emperor's harem, she was a concubine. Even if she lived until the late emperor's death, she was only a talented person.

"I thank the emperor for his grace. I will do my duty and live up to his grace."

She pulled her hand back, bowed again, and spoke excitedly.

Emperor Jing was very satisfied with her attitude. After saying a few words, he let her leave.

She bowed, then tactfully left Emperor Jing's bedroom and returned to her residence.

This night, many people in the harem were destined to be unable to sleep. The concubines in the harem were all looking forward to it, wondering whose name would be turned over first after the emperor ascended the throne and mourned for the rest of his life. As the first person to be turned over, the meaning was definitely different.

It was not until the imperial edict came and the Fengluan carriage went to Yunpin's Chenxiang Palace that the concubines in the harem knew that the emperor had turned over Yunpin's nameplate.

The concubines gnashed their teeth, countless vases in the palaces were broken, and there were constant curses.

Yingyue Palace.

Concubine Li's palace was extremely luxurious. The lights in the palace were bright, reflecting Concubine Li's charming and beautiful face, like the most dazzling moon in the night sky.

She was wearing a gorgeous palace dress embroidered with golden lotus flowers, which swayed gracefully with every step, showing the elegance of a stunning beauty.

She opened her red lips slightly, but the words that came out were as cold as the coldest winter day, piercingly cold.

"What a Concubine Yun, relying on her beauty, she dares to show off in front of me. How dare a concubine who has never given birth to an heir to the throne steal my limelight."

There was a fierce flash in her eyes and her voice was gnashed with teeth.

"Snapped"

A beautiful piece of carved porcelain was smashed to pieces by her.

Seeing this, Cuiwei, the personal maid, carefully stepped around the porcelain fragments on the ground and stepped forward to comfort her:

"Your Majesty, please calm down. Concubine Yun was once pregnant with an heir to the throne, but unfortunately she was unlucky and could not keep the child. The Emperor picked her because he thought she could give birth. As long as Your Majesty is pregnant, and with Your Majesty's favor, she will be the first person in the harem in the future."

After hearing Cui Wei's words, Concubine Li narrowed her eyes slightly, her long eyelashes casting a shadow under the candlelight, "What you said makes sense. I have been drinking this pregnancy medicine, but why is there no movement in my stomach?"

She gently stroked her flat belly, a sad look in her eyes.

Without offspring, all the favor you have is useless. Not only will your beauty fade, but your favor is also easy to lose.

Once the emperor passed away, all the concubines without children would be buried with him.

No matter how glorious your life was, the result will be the same.

This is the ancestral rule of the Daqian Kingdom, and no one can change it.

Cuiwei looked at the empress's sad and lonely eyes, and whispered, "Empress, maybe you can ask the imperial physician to re-prepare the prescription, or do more adjustments in diet. I heard that the new chef in the imperial kitchen said that he is quite knowledgeable about health-preserving diets, and maybe he can make some dishes that help conception."

Hearing this, Concubine Li nodded slightly and said, "You are a very thoughtful girl. You can arrange it tomorrow."

Zhenfei's Ningshuang Palace.

Zhenfei was extremely beautiful, with skin as white as jade, a delicate and small oval face, and eyebrows as dark as distant ink, slightly raised, carrying endless love.

Beautiful, fragile, passionate, and unforgettable at first sight.

She sat upright on an exquisitely carved chair, her face looking somewhat pale.

In her hand, she held an exquisite jade bowl, which contained black pregnancy-maintaining medicine.

She frowned and drank the bitter medicine in one gulp.

After drinking the medicine, she placed the medicine bowl heavily on the table and snorted, "That Yunpin is really lucky. Her appearance is not even good enough in the harem, but she is favored by the emperor."

The personal maid Xiang Guo came forward and said carefully: "Don't be angry, Madam. The situation in the palace has changed. Madam, you are young and beautiful, and the emperor is very kind to you. You definitely have a better chance of giving birth to a child than Concubine Yun."

Concubine Zhen bit her lip and said, "Hmph, I hope so. Go and get the Buddhist scriptures that I copied some time ago and send them to the Empress Dowager's Cining Palace. Then tell her that I pray for the Emperor and the Empress Dowager every day."

It would be fine if it was Concubine Yun tonight, but that bitch was pregnant after all.

But if that bitch Concubine Li gets ahead of her next, she will become the laughing stock of the harem.

When Xiangguo heard this, she understood the queen's intention and said respectfully, "Yes, queen."

He quickly retreated to do his work.

In a courtyard near the side hall of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, Yu Yao knew nothing about these things and didn't care.

After she came back, she washed up and soon fell asleep, sleeping soundly.
