"Empress, I trusted you so much that I entrusted the entire harem to you, and this is how you treat my concubines? You have truly disappointed me." Emperor Yuanwu sighed deeply.
"Your Majesty." The Empress grabbed Emperor Yuanwu's arm with one hand.
Emperor Yuanwu calmly withdrew his arm: "Empress, please explain the fire at Yikun Palace tonight. Since this cloak has been in Wen Hui's possession, then who was wearing it?"
"Your Majesty, it's not Wenhui. Wenhui has been with me all night." The Empress's already pale face turned even paler.
"The Empress has too many worries every day. From today onwards, the affairs of the harem will be handed over to Consort Shu. Consort Liang and Consort Zhen will assist Consort Shu in managing them." Emperor Yuanwu was relieved.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty," the Empress said, as if she wanted to say something more.
Just as Emperor Yuanwu was about to get up, he heard Mu Qianqian's inner thoughts.
Father, please don't be soft-hearted.
To consolidate her power, this empress did many unethical things.
Many princes and princesses had previously been nearly killed by her.
"The Empress should stay in Yikun Palace and reflect on her mistakes," Emperor Yuanwu said, then stood up and walked towards the door.
I spent the whole night tossing and turning.
The Empress Dowager was also exhausted.
She handed Mu Qianqian into Consort Shu's arms.
"Respectfully seeing off the Empress Dowager, respectfully seeing off the Emperor..."
Everyone stood up.
One by one, they left Kunning Palace.
Consort Zhen watched Consort Shu's departing figure and quickly chased after her, calling out, "Sister."
Consort Shu suddenly stopped in her tracks.
"I misunderstood you before, please don't take offense," Consort Zhen said apologetically.
"What are you saying, little sister? I must thank you for helping me clarify things today," Consort Shu said softly.
"My sister didn't do anything," Consort Zhen said somewhat embarrassedly. "I was just telling the truth."
"Sister..." Before Consort Shu could finish speaking, many concubines surrounded her.
"Is this the Seventh Princess?"
"This seventh princess is so beautiful, with rosy cheeks and chubby cheeks, she's so cute."
"My sister is so lucky to have both a son and a daughter now."
"Not only does he have both a son and a daughter, but he also enjoys the Emperor's favor. It's truly enviable..."
Those concubines who used to avoid Consort Shu when she was in trouble now fawned over her, seeing that she had been granted the power to assist the six palaces.
"Ah... Achoo!" Mu Qianqian couldn't help but sneeze.
no way.
She is allergic to green tea.
I can't stand even a little bit...
Achoo!
Just when Consort Shu didn't know how to escape.
Mu Qianqian sneezed twice, which gave her a reasonable excuse: "Sisters, I'm so sorry, the Seventh Princess may have caught a cold. I'll take her back to the palace first."
The next day.
Mu Junhan arrived at Qiluan Garden with great interest: "Mother, have you heard? Father is going hunting on the Bashang Grassland and wants me to go with him."
"Look at you, a child your age, how come you're still so immature?" Consort Shu was sitting in the courtyard looking at the account book, her gaze unconsciously falling on Mu Junhan's waist.
She didn't even wait for Mu Junhan to react before tearing the sachet off his waist.
"Mother!" Mu Junhan exclaimed in surprise, his expression flustered as he tried to snatch it away.
Consort Shu raised her hand and moved the sachet to the other side.
She noticed this sachet when Mu Junhan came last time.
This time, she was determined to see exactly what was inside the sachet...
