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 97: Servant Misses You So Much

The Emperor became more and more uneasy, feeling an urgent need to check on her, as he could not be at peace without seeing for himself.

He decided he would discreetly visit, just to take one look, and if he saw she was unharmed, he would leave.

When Zhang Qing heard His Majesty calling, he hurried in to help His Majesty change into casual clothes, thinking that His Majesty was feeling restless and unable to sleep, wanting to go out for a stroll.

After changing clothes, he heard His Majesty tell him,

"Zhang Qing, carry the lantern and lead the way to the Imperial Prison." His Majesty spoke and then led the way out of the sleeping chamber first.

Zhang Qing gaped in astonishment, his face a picture of shock. Was His Majesty going to visit Young Master Lian? This was indeed the first time in many years. He had never before seen His Majesty show such partiality!

The Emperor walked out of the sleeping chamber, noticed no one had followed, and called out impatiently, "Zhang Qing."
