When Father Wu was called by his name for the first time at the court meeting, the skin on his face trembled.

He was restless today, troubled by Wu Qing's affairs.

I was not paying attention and missed the emperor's question.

Seeing that he hadn't spoken a word, Wu's father's superior glanced at him coldly.

Shangguan reminded quietly: "The emperor asks you where the supervision system in the capital is flawed."

Father Wu gritted his teeth and spoke a long paragraph.

The general idea is that there is nothing wrong with the capital's supervision system in general, all officials are diligent, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. Under the emperor's wise rule, the country will definitely get better and better.

Although his words were sincere, they were empty and made the emperor frown.

After hearing this, all the officials showed contempt.

Last night, the Emperor killed a group of Xixia forces lurking in the capital. Not only did he eliminate nobles and several eunuchs, he also caught up with the officials who were secretly colluding with Xixia.

The emperor mentioned this matter today because he hopes Father Wu can give some suggestions on this.

However, his answer was disappointing.

The emperor originally thought that Wu Qing's father would be a useful person. Even if he did not have Wu Qing's supernatural powers, he should know some political affairs.

Now it seems that only Concubine Wu has something magical about her.

The emperor impatiently asked him to go down and asked Qin Lixue for his opinion.

Qin Lixue was appreciated by the emperor for his contribution in drought relief and promoted to the Ministry of Revenue. Now he is a seventh-rank official like Wu's father.

Qin Lixue's father was a censor. When answering, he cited many examples from his father's reign, which made the emperor nod frequently.

The emperor was very pleased with him and praised him a few words before letting him leave.

Amid all the envious, jealous and hateful eyes, Lord Qin, who is handsome in appearance and has a bright official career, is actually far less calm than he appears to be.

Before the court meeting, he also heard the news about Wu Qing's promotion to Wu Guiren.

When he heard the news, his first reaction was not joy, but shock.

After the shock, Qin Lixue felt an indescribable anger in his heart.

He once thought that Wu Qing was deeply in love with him, so he felt guilty towards her.

Now it seems that she is just a fickle person.

Qin Lixue couldn't help feeling disappointed.

He even asked someone else to bring the letter into the palace for him!

Thinking of the affectionate scene between the two of them before Wu Qing entered the palace, Qin Lixue's face became even gloomier.

Even with his beloved wife in his arms, he could not forgive Wu Qing's betrayal.

The outside world is in turmoil, and Wu Qing is the only one who is bored.

Wu Qing stood in the yard and looked at the sky for a long time.

Time passed slowly in silence, and she finally rolled up her sleeves.

So what if you become a noble person?

Concubine Lin still didn't allow her to go out.

Concubine Lin said: "You act impulsively and recklessly. Now that the Queen is ill, it is my responsibility to keep an eye on you to prevent you from causing any more trouble."

Wu Qing: [I understand. The Imperial Concubine doesn’t want me to have any contact with the Queen.]

[I am now a noble lady, my status has become higher, and the imperial concubine wants to pull me into her camp even more. ]

Wu Qing squatted down and joined the servants in the yard, pulling weeds with everyone amid the puzzled looks of others.

[So boring, so suffocating. ]

[I can't get out, and I can't die. 】

[The queen is ill, the selection has been postponed, and the heroine can only enter the palace next month. What is the difference between this place and prison? ]

"Wu Qing."

After finishing her messy palace affairs, Concubine Lin stepped out of her room to get some fresh air. Unexpectedly, she saw Wu Da Ying, who was busy pulling weeds among the palace maids and eunuchs.

She called out to her, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. She really didn't know where she got so much energy to do all that every day.

Do all the fairies in the sky have so much energy?

When Wu Qing saw the imperial concubine, her eyes lit up and she blushed as she said, "Your Highness! Do you want to come and weed? It's very relaxing!"

She exercised for a while and her face became rosy and full of vitality.

Concubine Lin looked at Wu Qing's messy hair and muddy dress, paused for a moment, and politely refused.

"...No, you can play by yourself."

After hearing this, Wu Qing casually wiped his clothes, leaving green stains all over his body, and started pulling weeds again.

Seeing how devoted Wu Qing was, the servants were happy to share the burden with her and did not express any dissatisfaction with her joining.

Qingfang walked up to her and reminded her in a low voice: "Madam, the servants seem to like Concubine Wu very much."

Concubine Lin listened attentively: "Hmm?"

Qingfang continued: "I have found that many people have been praising Concubine Wu in private, saying that she is kind and sincere. Is this a bit...inappropriate?"

The servants of the imperial concubine should naturally put the imperial concubine first. How can they have a good impression of a noble?

If Concubine Lin and Wu Da Ying had a falling out in the future, wouldn't it be a big problem if these servants became disloyal?

Concubine Lin nodded, her tone calm as water: "I know, let them go."

Wu agreed to be so innocent and naive, and there was nothing wrong with accommodating him.

Not only the servants in Linhua Palace, but the imperial concubine herself likes her very much.

During the long days of intrigue, Concubine Lin felt very relieved when such an innocent person suddenly appeared.

Concubine Lin called Wu Qing over.

Wu Qing obeyed obediently, tidied up his appearance, and then ran to Concubine Lin.

Concubine Lin said, "I have something to tell you."

"The Queen has been seriously ill recently. In order to pray for the Queen, the Emperor has issued an order, ordering all the concubines in the palace to chant sutras and pray for the Queen."

"Among them, the Emperor asked me to select ten other blessed people to go to the Huguo Temple to burn incense and pray for the Empress's speedy recovery."

Concubine Lin smiled and asked, "I want you to accompany me, are you willing?"

Wu Qing responded excitedly: "Go, of course I'll go!"

[I can finally go out! My dear concubine, I love you! ]

[This is the Huguo Temple! The base of the Golden Lotus Society! ]

[I also want to see what Master Tongguang looks like, hehe. ]

Golden Lotus Society?

What?

Concubine Lin raised her eyebrows slightly, wondering why Wu Qing was so excited.

[I don't know who will go to Huguo Temple this time. It would be more lively if Concubine Sun and Concubine Ning were there. ]

[In order to have a child, Concubine Sun stole jewelry from the palace and sold it, donating ten golden Buddha statues to the Huguo Temple.]

[And Ningpin's ex-boyfriend... well, I can only say that it's not easy to endure humiliation and bear heavy burdens. ]

Concubine Sun secretly sold jewelry?

Ningpin's ex-boyfriend?

Concubine Lin changed her mind and added these two people to the original list.

She would never admit that she was just there to watch the fun.

After knowing that she was infertile, Concubine Lin's mentality changed drastically.

In the past, when she saw the young and beautiful concubines in the palace, she would quickly feel jealous.

But now, she can look at them calmly.

Instead, the imperial concubine hoped that they would quickly give birth to an heir to the throne so that she could take the child in and raise him herself.

[For such a big event, the Emperor will also go, right? ]

【My knife is thirsty. 】

Wu Qing is still thinking about assassinating the emperor?

Concubine Lin shook her head and pretended to be regretful, saying, "It's a pity that the emperor is busy with government affairs and cannot go with us."

Upon hearing this, Wu Qing's face suddenly fell.

[…Damn it!]

[Oh my god, I've been here for a month and I haven't seen the emperor yet! ]

[Is it possible only if the emperor picks the winner?]

Concubine Lin: "Time is tight, go pack your things. I won't help you."
