Main character: The outwardly cultured and divinely empowered, cold-hearted female lead vs. The self-taught, passionate, and wife-chasing male lead.
Huan Yue died and transmigrated into a swe...
Today, in the rear hall of the Qing'e Palace.
Di Baose came to do needlework, and Gong Fengyi and the others came to join in the fun.
Now there's also the Central Palace group, so the place is large but still quite lively.
As everyone watched the eunuch run away, they were filled with surprise and doubt when the Empress suddenly kicked him!
Di Baose felt as if she had been kicked to the ground and had to be helped up by a palace maid to stand up. She looked at the eunuch lying on the ground and wondered if he was dead or not.
Huan Yue felt as light as if he were about to fly, and his kick didn't miss. He landed firmly on the ground.
She raised her hand to support her head.
"Your Majesty!" A young palace maid rushed over anxiously!
"Your Majesty!" The little maids rushed over, all of them outstanding students from the drama school.
Huan Yue, his head throbbing, ignored it and pointed sternly at the eunuch on the ground, saying, "Send this to the Emperor! I suspect he's not clean!"
What?! Yu Yan was shocked!
But Yu Yan was clever; he noticed the change in expression on the face of the person from the Empress Dowager and knew what was going on.
This matter has escalated significantly! Yu Yan reacted quickly, realizing that listening to the Empress was the right thing to do, and ordered people to carry the eunuch away.
The people in the central palace realized what was happening and tried to stop them.
Huan Yue turned around, stared at them, and twitched her leg under her skirt.
The people in the palace were trembling, not knowing whether they would survive this kick.
How did such a wicked person end up in the Eastern Palace? Empress Dong has really shot herself in the foot.
"Wait a minute," Huan Yue instructed, "Have Your Majesty personally copy 'Rules for Women' and 'Admonitions for Women' a thousand times, so that you can set an example for the ladies of the court. Remember to send one hundred copies to the Crown Prince's Palace on the first day of next month, so that the Crown Prince's Palace can follow Your Majesty's example from now on."
One of the palace maids reacted quickly: "Why should Her Majesty copy it by hand?"
Huan Yue said, "Why make Lady Dong the Empress? Everyone else has done it, is she bored? She should set an example by example. If she's too idle, she should copy the 'Treatise on Response and Retribution' a thousand times and present it to the Empress Dowager."
Di Baose has a kind of confusion: Who am I? Where am I? What am I hearing?
Sunny accepted it quite well.
This is truly Lady Pei; she has arranged everything in the inner palace with perfect clarity.
If that eunuch is truly corrupt, the Empress is probably doomed.
Sunny can then relax and stay in the Eastern Palace.
A group of people from the central palace somehow left the eastern palace.
Anyway, Huan Yue had already entered the study and continued writing poetry.
Perhaps flying more often will make one ascend to immortality; her flying white is even more ethereal.
Outside, Di Baose finally calmed down.
Although she wanted to be empress, she had awe for the current empress and wanted to be like her because she thought the empress was powerful.
I never expected Pei Huanyue to be so fierce!
Di Baose felt that wanting to watch a good show was a bit foolish.
Even if she didn't want to admit it, everyone thought she was stupid, and it was infuriating! Even needlework couldn't appease her!
Zhu Jin made a sarcastic remark: "People are not the same. Being the Crown Princess is not easy. With the Di family to rely on, you can live a good life anywhere. There's nothing you can do even if people laugh at you, because they still have to respect you out of respect for the Di family. So, don't let the Di family give up on you, and think things through before you do anything."
A gust of wind blew, and Di Baose felt a little desolate.
She can only do needlework for Pei Huanyue here. The Di family has probably given up on her.
Sunny said, "Women have it tough. So many are used or abandoned by their own families. Isn't that the case for the Empress? The Pei family always holds her back. How difficult is it for the Empress? But who does she blame?"
Di Baose snorted, she didn't complain, she just hit him.
That's not what Sunny meant. They deserved to be hit. Some masters just take their anger out on others.
Yu Yan returned.
Everyone noticed that his expression wasn't quite right.
Di Baose asked anxiously, "What did the sage say?"
Yu Yan kindly told her, "Have the Empress do as our Lady says. The court audience the day after tomorrow is cancelled. On the first day of next month, I will personally review the Empress's copy of 'Rules for Women' and 'Admonitions for Women.' I also ordered Princess Yongjia to copy them with the Empress, a thousand times each."
Di Baose was so frightened that he sat down on the ground.
A thousand times, what do people do?
And it's only two or three days until the day after tomorrow, and only a few days until the first day of next month? How can you finish copying this thousand times in just one or two months?
It's clear the emperor is furious!
Huiqing felt that it was wrong for the Empress to have an unclean eunuch, and also because the Empress had previously complained that the Emperor was too old and incapable.
Not directly deposing the empress is still a big step.
How could Dong have the audacity to allow others to copy "Admonitions for Women"?
A palace attendant came over and whispered, "Her Highness the Imperial Concubine has ordered all the women in the Pei household to copy 'Rules for Women' and 'Admonitions for Women' a thousand times each."
Di Baose felt that after all the commotion, Pei Huanyue had nothing to do with it.
Zhu Jin looked at her and said, "Maybe it'll be your turn next time."
Di Baose was startled! Enraged and embarrassed, she demanded, "Whose maid are you?"
Zhu Jin said slowly, "I'm doing this for your own good. Look at Wei Zhi in the court, he's always causing trouble for the Emperor."
Di Baose said, "Why doesn't Wei Zhi mention Pei Huanyue?"
Zhu Jin said, "With your disrespect for the Empress, Lord Wei should be the first to reprimand you. Do you think Lord Wei can just say whatever he wants, and that the Emperor would listen to him? Even the Emperor can listen to people's opinions, so how can you compare to the Emperor?"
Di Baose remained silent.
**
Anxingfang and Pei Mansion.
Qinglong Hall seems to be the same as before; that's just how the Pei family is.
The Li family is old, so they generally won't touch her.
Because they were going to the palace to pay homage to the Empress, a group of people were here, all excited and nervous.
Li sat there, her expression not very pleasant.
The others didn't dare to provoke her, so they discussed what to wear when they entered the palace, making sure they dressed up beautifully to uphold the reputation of the seven young ladies of the Pei family.
Otherwise, with spring so beautiful, there would be nothing for them to do.
Although they received invitations, wherever they went, there was always a group of people laughing at them.
It's truly unexpected that Pei Huanyue betrayed the Pei family.
Pei Huanyue may seem to have a saint protecting him, but how can a saint protect his daughter-in-law?
It's only temporary; the future depends on the Empress.
Besides, Pei Huanyue hasn't had a child yet, and there's a long road ahead.
But those watching the show, like Pei Huanyue, were only concerned with the present.
The Pei family had no choice but to plan for their future.
Pei Huanying watched Pei Jinnu sitting to one side, lost in thought, and couldn't help but sneer. Even if the Empress sent her to the Eastern Palace, the Crown Prince wouldn't like her. Pei Huanyue was so powerful; dealing with Pei Jinnu would be a piece of cake.
Pei Jinnu frowned.
She knew the road ahead would be difficult, but she had to keep going.
Besides, she is familiar with Pei Huanyue. Even if something happens in the future, Pei Jinnu and Pei Huanyue will be on the same side.
Pei Jinnu and her mother already knew about Chang Ziyu.
If it weren't for Chang Ziyu, she wouldn't have been able to enter the Eastern Palace.
Once inside the Eastern Palace, everyone naturally relies on their own abilities, just like Pei Huanyue now.
Pei Jinnu harbored envy, admiration, and ambition to replace him.
Pei Huanzhao strode in.
Li glanced at him. What's wrong?
Pei Huanzhao was very agitated: "I've been dismissed from my post."
Li Shi didn't take it seriously; his position wasn't that important anyway.
Pei Huanzhao looked at everyone in Qinglong Hall and asked in surprise, "You all don't know?"
A daughter-in-law hurried in to give a reply.
Pei Huanzhao then realized that the people from Kunyu Palace had been delayed on their way, or they were deliberately trying to make a fool of themselves.
