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 151 Inescapable

Xiao Jizi swallowed his saliva, feeling extremely ominous.

Lian Hua had the same premonition. The senior lady in front of them seemed intent on chasing away those who weren't members of this courtyard, then closing the door to deal with the family's disgrace.

She grew fearful, stealing glances at Xiao Jizi, her eyes asking what to do. Sensing her gaze, Xiao Jizi gently shook his head.

All Lian Hua could do was shrink her neck and pretend to be a partridge.

Nanny Qi noticed their subtle movements and called out indifferently, "Master Lian."

"Ah, here!" Startled by the call, Lian Hua quickly straightened up. It was her turn, her turn—what awaited her!

Huaqing Palace.

The Noble Consort returned to the hall, feeling a tightness in her chest, suffocated with discomfort.

For many years in the Harem, she had nearly feared no one. Even when she had bowed to the Favored Concubine during the Late Emperor's time, it wasn't out of fear but forced by the situation.
