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 66 Go to Sleep (Update at 8 AM)

Noble Consort had an oval face, her cheeks neither too full nor too scant.

The Emperor felt somewhat disappointed; the Noble Consort's face lacked baby fat, and although it looked just right, he always felt something was missing, unlike with Little Concubine whose baby fat on both cheeks could be pinched, feeling very nice.

With a hum, the Emperor walked towards the bed first.

Just then, a handkerchief fell from his embrace, fluttering a few steps before landing in front of the Noble Consort.

The Noble Consort took a careful look and saw the handkerchief was embroidered with orchids. The embroidery was neither poor nor exceptional but passable, and a pang of suspicion arose in her heart; this was not crafted by the Bureau of Palace Attendants.

Just as the Noble Consort was about to pick it up, the Emperor noticed and quickly stepped forward, picking up the handkerchief first and stuffing it into his robe.

"Your Majesty, this is..." the Noble Consort hesitated to ask.
