After the emperor said this, the people around him suddenly became quite cold and looked at each other.
Although they have mutual interests involved, they only have one thought in their minds this time: the emperor is no longer the same emperor as before.
She is now decisive and resolute in her actions and never changes her mind.
As for why the previous emperor did not do this, it was because he had no one to please him. People said that there were three thousand beauties in the harem, but he only had a few and he didn't like any of them at all.
Such a little Qiao Yege really touched the emperor's calm heart.
Concubine An's eyes flashed, she was startled, took two steps on her knees, and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, you can't lock me up. Have I done anything wrong? Why do you have to lock me up?"
"What's the point of me being a concubine for such a long time? I didn't enter the palace to stay alone in an empty room! I came to give birth to your children!"
When Concubine An said this, the Emperor chuckled and waved his hand, signaling the head nanny and Eunuch Li to send Concubine An to the center of the courtyard.
He didn't want to waste any time talking to Concubine An.
And the rules he set can never be changed.
The head nanny called some people and went over to grab Concubine An. Naturally, Concubine An struggled.
He had been severely punished by Shu Fei before, and not only did he not have much strength left, he was also in a very embarrassed state.
At this time, a palace maid rushed up and grabbed her, but she could not struggle anymore.
She looked at the emperor with pity and said in a hoarse voice: "Your Highness, why do you treat me like this? If you don't like me, you shouldn't have let me stay with you! You brought me into the palace, but you don't care about me at all. What are you doing? Where do you put me?"
Every word hurts my heart!
It’s a pity that the emperor just waved his hand and walked away slowly.
Qiao Yege followed the emperor anxiously.
After the emperor left, the head nanny and eunuch Li took away Concubine An, who was still howling like a ghost.
Shu Fei was quite proud. Although she did not take away Concubine An's title this time, she did punish this woman. Her life became more miserable, but she was secretly laughing.
The Queen Mother stretched her back, but her face showed no expression. Seeing Shu Fei's smug look, she coughed lightly and said to her, "Ms. Shu, you have always been an honest person in the harem. But today you actually got involved in the affairs of the harem. Tell me, who asked you to do this?"
The Queen Mother is not a fool. How could she not see this?
Shu Fei quickly adjusted her expression, knowing that her expression of gloating might be a little obvious and was discovered by the Queen Mother.
However, Shu Fei also knew that talking too much would lead to mistakes, so she said to the Queen Mother: "Your Highness, how can I not get involved in these affairs in the harem? I am also a woman. Besides, I have long disliked Concubine An. Just like what the emperor said, what achievements has she made? Why can she be a concubine?"
The Queen Mother was drinking tea with her head down, but when she heard Shu Fei say this, she paused for a moment, then looked at Shu Fei with some curiosity.
This girl was famous for her frankness. She said whatever she wanted to say, and the Queen Mother knew it a long time ago.
But what happened yesterday that made Concubine An and Concubine Shu start to express their feelings?
Are you starting to make moves on the position of Queen in the harem?
Although the Queen Mother was a little surprised, she returned to normal in an instant.
Her Yun family is no longer like it was before. No more women will be sent to the palace, so she no longer knows who will be the queen in the harem.
However, the relationship between her Yun family and the An family has always been bad, so instead of letting Concubine An sit on the throne of queen, it is better to let other women sit on this position.
Anyone can do it except Concubine An.
Thinking of this, the Queen Mother chuckled, and a barely perceptible cunning appeared on her old face.
"Although you have good intentions, you still need to train more in the methods used in the harem. Just relying on this tactic of killing one thousand enemies and injuring eight hundred of your own is still a little bit lacking."
After saying that, he waved his hand, signaling Shu Fei to leave quickly.
Shu Fei immediately realized what the Queen Mother meant and raised the corner of her mouth.
The Queen Mother thought that Shu Fei's actions were child's play.
But in fact, Shu Fei knew clearly that being the Queen Mother was not a good method, and the reason she could sit on the position of Queen Mother was because of the child in her belly, right?
However, Shu Fei did not say much, but just walked away slowly with her maid.
Here, the emperor walked in front and Qiao Yege followed behind. Qiao Ye could clearly feel that the emperor was in a bad mood.
It must be because the emperor confessed his love to Qiao Yege again, but was still rejected.
The relationship between the two seemed to be a little awkward in an instant, and Qiao Yege wanted to say something to ease the atmosphere.
However, when she thought that she had already rejected the emperor, she should not try that trick. She should be like a white lotus, getting in front of the emperor and telling him that there was no possibility between them, while at the same time trying to make the emperor obsessed with her.
What should she do?
Seeing that Qiao Yuge, who was walking behind him, had no reaction at all, she just lowered her head, and she looked a little aggrieved. The emperor walked in front of her, pursed his lips, and said to her: "Your expression is as if I have wronged you. What's wrong? Have you figured it out?"
Qiao Yege raised his eyes, full of apology.
"Your Highness, I am just a maid. I have been taken care of by Your Highness and have always caused trouble for Your Highness. I think I can no longer shamelessly enjoy Your Highness's care. Please treat me like an ordinary maid."
The emperor had his hands behind his back, his expression was already quite cold, but after hearing these words, he opened his mouth, and it was hard to tell what expression was on that handsome face, it was as if there was sadness and disappointment.
If the emperor has a good attitude, then that is true, but this is not a reason for Qiao Yuge to trample on his feelings.
No matter how open-minded a man is, he cannot bear being rejected by the woman he likes.
Qiao Yuge regretted it after she said this, but she knew she had no choice.
Because of family reasons, she could not marry the emperor.
Since this is a relationship with no result, don't give yourself hope, and don't give the emperor hope.
The emperor was silent for a long time, as if he was slowly accepting this situation. Finally, he nodded and said to Qiao Yuge, "Okay, in this case, I respect your choice."
