Palace Fighting: Naive Concubines' Ascent to Power

In the first episode, Little Palace Maid Lian Hua, holding tea leaves, thought to curry favor with Zhaoyi. The Emperor intercepted her halfway, and before she could react, he hijacked her tea leaves, leaving her bewildered. In the second episode, she wanted to curry favor with the Noble Consort. During the Noble Consort's birthday feast, she hadn't even presented the meticulously prepared tea leaves before the Emperor seized them, leaving her aggrieved. In the third episode, she had just sneaked out with the Palace Maids to pick bamboo shoots, planning to go back and cook something delicious when the Emperor burst out of nowhere wanting to freeload a meal. If it wasn't tasty, he would punish her, she managed to barely pass muster by exerting all her energy. Before she could feel relieved, the Emperor told her he was also staying to sleep! This time, he was thoroughly taking advantage of her, enjoying free food and lodging without the slightest intention of rewarding her. At night, the more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt. All the silver she had saved up in earlier years had been used to sustain the Emperor. Now that the money was gone, she feared being punished for not being able to support him in the future. The more she thought, the sadder she got, her tears plopping down, which woke the Emperor sleeping beside her. In a flurry, the Emperor consoled her, "There, there, don't cry, don't cry. I haven't even had time to reward you, how could I punish you!" After much consoling, and finally with his promise to provide for her sustenance, she turned her tears into laughter. The Emperor breathed a sigh of relief. This Little Concubine would need to be favored properly from now on—he dared not make her cry again. →→【This story has concluded, thank you for reading】→→ New book recommendation: "Consort of the Roll-Royce is Here, Run!"—It's a good read!

Chapter 41 Xu Zhaoyi

Lian Hua, still with redness in her almond eyes, raised her head blankly to the newcomer, her tear stains already dry.

It turned out to be Xu Zhaoyi.

All she did was smile at the lifting gaze of Lian Hua, her valiant face softening a bit as she helped the bewildered Lian Hua up with one hand.

Xiao Qing, standing nearby, thought Lian Hua might be harmed and hurriedly tried to protect her young master.

Xiao Qing was distressed, she had watched the banquet unfold by her young master's side, watched her young master being ridiculed, watched her kneel and cry, unable to do anything but forcefully hold back her tears and follow in kneeling and bowing, unable to offer any help.

With everyone else already dispersed, she did not know what this consort intended to do with her young master and impulsively tried to intervene.

Xu Zhaoyi noticed Xiao Qing's movement and spoke, "You needn't worry, I won't harm your mistress."
