After Jiang Jiang sent Fu Yao away, the empress dowager saw her and remembered how she had been humiliated by the emperor in front of the younger generation the other day, so she didn't want to keep her any longer.
After returning to Chuxiu Palace, she was wondering what Fu Yao's last words meant.
In this dynasty, concubines were not considered the proper masters of the palace, and when they met nobles, they still referred to themselves according to the names they used in the boudoir.
It shouldn't be that she violated any taboo in the way she addressed it.
While he was thinking, Yu Zhiqing came over and asked, "Did the Emperor and the Queen Mother give you any trouble today?"
Jiang Jiang shook his head and laughed, "I just went there for lunch, what else could I possibly cause trouble for?"
Overturn the table?
Yu Zhiqing felt relieved when she saw that there was no expression of grievance on her face. She couldn't help but click her tongue in her heart. She just didn't know that in the previous life, after the sent-in concubine died an accident, the Jiang family and the empress dowager simply stopped acting and sent people to the harem directly to be brought before the emperor.
They treated the emperor as a breeding ground for the Jiang family.
An emperor in power is like a sharp weapon that has seen blood. How can he tolerate them doing evil in front of him?
So someone died in the Empress Dowager's palace that day.
Thinking of the panic-stricken harem at that time, Yu Zhiqing couldn't help but tremble.
"The Emperor's strange illness... everyone in the palace knows about it. What good is it to eat with him?" Yu Zhiqing lowered her voice mid-sentence, as if she was afraid someone could hear her. She couldn't help but say to Jiang Jiang, "If you're not careful, you'll break a taboo. You might even lose your head and not even know why you died."
"Unfortunately, since you were taken away today, there have been many sour comments in the palace."
Jiang Jiang: “…”
Jiang Jiang said sincerely: "If they are jealous, they can try it themselves."
When Yu Zhiqing heard this, she knew that she had also experienced the emperor's illness in the past, so she couldn't help laughing out loud.
"That's right. Let those jealous people go there and they will behave themselves." She took out a book from the cabinet beside her. There was something written in black and white on it.
Jiang Jiang turned his face to the side at the right time to avoid seeing her privacy.
Yu Zhiqing placed the thin paper in front of her and said, "Here is the list of the concubines who spoke ill of me yesterday."
Jiang Jiang: “?”
Seeing the other person's surprised eyes, Yu Zhiqing laughed awkwardly: "I have a bad memory. I always have to repay kindness and revenge."

If it was because of the Empress Dowager that Jiang Jiang was summoned by the Emperor last time, the other beauties in Chuxiu Palace would have had time to inquire about the news or feel indignant.
The next day, she was sent to the Yangxin Palace by the emperor again, and they didn't know how to react.
What to do? She has already caught the emperor's eye. Can they still stop him from summoning the concubines?
Only Yu Zhiqing told Jiang Jiang her survival tips as if the sky had fallen.
Inside the Hall of Mental Cultivation.
The fragrance of ambergris slowly rose from the incense burner and turned into a wisp of white smoke.
Looking at the girl standing there like a wooden man, Fu Yao just felt funny. What if he could eat people?
"Come forward, didn't you say you could do massage?"
He had a headache as usual, and when the pain was unbearable, what came to his mind was not killing, but a beautiful face.
So the scene before our eyes happened.
Fu Yao leaned against the dragon couch, his slender fingers tightly gripping the armrests, his knuckles turning blue and white from the force.
Fine beads of cold sweat oozed from his forehead, sticking a few strands of scattered black hair to his pale skin, which glowed sickly in the candlelight.
