Dongfang Wuche, you were born stronger than me. You know absolutely nothing, so what right do you have to advise me?!

The Fourth Prince strode away. Dongfang Wuche said that there was nothing he could hide from him, and most of the time it was just a feint. All the private soldiers under his command were secretly raised, and they weren't even raised under his identity. He didn't believe that Dongfang Wuche knew even this.

Now the only option is to strike first and take action against Father Emperor!

When Qiao Qiu learned that the Fourth Prince had begun to make his move, she did not intervene but remained inactive.

She had to wait for an opportunity, a suitable opportunity to deliver a fatal blow to the Fourth Prince.

...

The Emperor has recently been particularly fond of Consort Yi, and he visits her almost every day.

This angered the other women in the harem. Although the Empress did not say anything, Yu Honghua, who lived in the Empress's palace, noticed it.

When you meet Qiao Qiu, tell her about this.

Qiao Qiu roughly understood what was going on, but she felt a little uncomfortable about Yu Honghua suddenly getting close to the Empress. After all, the Empress was not Dongfang Wuche's biological mother, and Yu Honghua had no reason to curry favor with her.

Regardless of the undercurrents of conflict behind the scenes, good days have arrived.

On the fifth day of the sixth lunar month, the Eastern Palace was decorated in red. Qiao Qiu and Yu Honghua wore formal attire, with elaborate dresses and robes that made them look beautiful and noble.

After offering sacrifices to Heaven at the ancestral temple and registering Yu Honghua as a citizen, they rode in a grand procession in a luxurious carriage, parading through the streets before finally returning to the palace to pay homage to the Emperor and Empress.

The ceremony was over, and Yu Honghua was able to move into the East Palace openly and legitimately that night.

Originally, the Crown Princess had her own private palace, but Qiao Qiu ignored that and simply had Yu Honghua live with her.

In the Eastern Palace, she was the most powerful, and her word was law!
