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 169: Search for Me

After scolding her, Nanny Qi again advised earnestly and kindly, "Remember, next time, don't be so reckless, you're the master and with child, it's not worth it for you to take such risks for a servant like me. I've lived a long life and am content; my dear girl, just take good care of yourself."

At that moment, Nanny Qi appeared very kind-hearted, just like any elderly lady in a common household, prattling on about this and that, hoping that her children and grandchildren would lead good lives.

Lian Hua listened and nodded as Nanny Qi spoke, and when Nanny Qi finished, she replied, "Understood, Grandma Qi." In one ear and out the other.

Nanny Qi had come on her behalf and since she was now part of Canglan Court, she was considered Lian Hua's person; someone Lian Hua should protect, and given that she was stronger than Nanny Qi, the strong ought to protect the weak. As for what to do next time, that would be a concern for later.
