"Since the Imperial Concubine feels that it is a good idea to persuade the Emperor to treat everyone equally, then you can go and tell the Emperor. I am already busy enough on weekdays and I am not interested in such trivial matters.

Someone, send Concubine Tong away. I'm still looking at the account books and don't have time to chat with you. Please ask Concubine Hui and Concubine Rong to come over. There are too many things to do, and I can't handle it alone."

If Mu Sili hadn't been pregnant, she would have asked her to come along. With strength in numbers, they would definitely be able to finish looking through the account book quickly.

Concubine Tong was simply in disbelief. She had clearly come to ask her to persuade Kangxi to treat everyone equally, so how did it become her turn to ask her to do the persuasion?

She was just a noble concubine, and it was the queen's job to admonish Kangxi. If she really did so, she would be accused of overstepping her authority.

She could do this before there was no queen, but now that there is a queen, if she does this again it would be tantamount to challenging the queen's authority. Who in their right mind would do this?

"Your Majesty, you are joking. It is only right for you to advise the Emperor. I dare not interfere in his affairs.

You also know that the Emperor dotes on Concubine Chen very much. It was fine before because there was no Empress to advise him. You can't blame others.

But things are different now. Since the Emperor has made you Empress, you should exercise your rights as Empress and put everything back on track."

The queen frowned and looked at her. Did she treat everyone in the palace except her as fools?

She could even say such words. No wonder she was becoming less and less favored. If it weren't for the Tong family's face, if it weren't for the fact that she was a member of the Tong family, could she have become a noble concubine?

I used to think she could be my rival, but now it seems that I overestimated her. If she had no fault, the position of imperial concubine would have accompanied her throughout her life. Unfortunately, it seems that she can't keep this position of imperial concubine.

"Noble Concubine Tong, the Emperor has his own considerations for me becoming the Empress, but the Emperor did not make me Empress so that I could meddle in his private affairs.

If you want to take care of the emperor's affairs so much, then go and tell him yourself. I have to say that the harem is busy with miscellaneous affairs and I don't have time to deal with these trivial matters.

Everyone in the palace knows that the emperor dotes on Concubine Chen and even gives his legitimate son to her to raise. She is pregnant, so why should I go against her?

No wonder the emperor has never thought of making you the queen. Now it seems that I know the reason. How can you bear the burden of the queen when you only care about vying for favor?

I still say the same thing. If you want the Emperor to treat everyone equally, go to the Palace of Heavenly Purity and ask him to do it yourself. I will not be your pawn and speak for you."

Concubine Tong felt like the Queen had broken off relations with her, and she didn't understand why she did this.

It is obvious that Mu Sili's favor is of no benefit to them, and they should unite to deal with her. Why do they look like they despise her?

"Does the Empress really want to go against me? If I were the Empress today, I would definitely speak up for the sisters in the harem."

"Even if you're not the Queen, you can still speak for them. Imperial Concubine, please step aside. I don't have the time to waste talking to you."

The Queen was obviously getting impatient. If Concubine Tong didn't leave, she was going to have someone kick her out.

"Since Her Majesty has said so, it would be a bit annoying for me to continue staying here. I hope Her Majesty can stick to her original intention and act in this way even when she completely falls out of favor."

Fall out of favor? It is impossible for her to fall out of favor. As long as she sits firmly on the throne of queen and manages the harem properly, Kangxi will not abolish her position as queen.

Not only that, even if she didn't have a son, as long as she treated Mu Sili, the favorite concubine, well, Kangxi would definitely treat her with respect for her sake.

She has already reached a position that others will never be able to reach in their lifetime, so why should she ask for more? If her greed leads to losing everything she has now, wouldn't that be a big loss for Wei Dafa?

Seeing that she no longer paid attention to her, Concubine Tong left Kunning Palace angrily, and the news here also reached the ears of Kangxi.

"It seems that I made the right choice for this queen. At least she is truly on my side. At first, I thought she would listen to the imperial concubine's advice and ask me to treat her equally. I didn't expect that I was overthinking it.

Since she is so sensible, I will give her some respect and go to Yiku Palace to tell Concubine Chen that I will go to Kunning Palace to have dinner with the Queen and will go back to accompany her later.

Oh, and go to my private vault and select two rare items for her. Make sure she knows I'm just dining with the Empress and won't be staying in Kunning Palace."

Liang Jiugong rolled his eyes at him. Since the emperor didn't want her to misunderstand, why did he go to Kunning Palace to have dinner with the queen?

The Queen was always understanding and could be appeased by just giving her a heads up or giving her some jewelry. There was no need to go in person.

"I understand."

When Mu Sili learned that Kangxi was going to Kunning Palace to have dinner with the Queen, she calmly accepted the fact. The Queen gave her face, so she naturally would not slap her in the face.

Besides, Concubine Tong was hoping that she and the Queen would have a quarrel. How could she possibly embarrass the Queen at this time?

"Tell His Majesty that I am fine here. If it's too late, don't come. It's tiring to go back and forth. I won't be angry with him over such a small matter."

"Your Majesty, if your words reach the emperor's ears, he will think that you don't care about him anymore. How about changing your words?"

Mu Sili was speechless. Did he want her to wait here obediently? Impossible. She was so spoiled that she would serve him when he came and sleep when he didn't come. It didn't matter.

But Kangxi doted on her alone, so she couldn't show it too much. So after thinking about it, she decided to let Liang Jiugong watch and tell him. After all, she was a concubine and had to rely on him for the rest of her life.

"You know the emperor's temper best. You can do whatever you want later. Just let the emperor know that I will not be angry with her."

"Yes, I will complete this task well."

As soon as Liang Jiugong left, Zi Yuan helped Mu Sili to take a walk in the Imperial Garden. The imperial physician had said that taking more walks during pregnancy would be beneficial for later delivery.

The news that Kangxi was going to Kunning Palace to have dinner with the Queen spread throughout the harem in an instant. Not long after Concubine Tong returned to Chengqian Palace, she walked out with a sarcastic look on her face.

Didn't Mu Sili rely on Kangxi's favor to disrespect her? Now she went to her and mocked her. Did she really think he would always dote on her?

There is no one in this harem who is truly favored forever, so she is waiting to see her retribution.

In the Imperial Garden, before Mu Sili could see whether the peony in front of her was in full bloom, Concubine Tong arrived.

"Sister Chen Fei, you still have the leisure to look at the peonies here. Why don't you look at the beautiful and fragrant peonies? Well, the position of empress has become the Nianhulu family, what do you have to do with it?"
