Meanwhile, back in her palace, the female protagonist felt annoyed and resentful as she thought about the attacks she had suffered from the concubines in the harem in recent days.
Complaining to the Emperor was to no avail; the Emperor kept telling her to endure it and did not intervene on her behalf.
Although I understand the Emperor's actions, I still feel some resentment in my heart.
"Your Majesty, please don't be angry. If the Emperor finds out, he will be heartbroken," Qin Yin, the palace maid who was close to the female lead, said worriedly.
“If His Majesty cared, he wouldn’t have stopped coming for so long,” the female lead said calmly.
"Your Majesty, the Emperor is only doing this for your own good. If the other concubines in the harem knew that the Emperor loved Your Majesty so much..."
"That will definitely attract a lot of attention and criticism."
"Although the Emperor did not come, he still sent many rewards in private."
"His Majesty still cares for the Empress," Qin Yin comforted him.
After hearing Qin Yin's words, the female protagonist's expression improved, and she was no longer as gloomy as before.
"This servant knows that Your Highness has not been having a good time these days and has suffered grievances, but this is only temporary. Once the Emperor has all the power in his hands, then the harem will be under Your Highness's control."
"At that time, those concubines who bully Your Majesty will be at Your Majesty's mercy," Qin Yin said fiercely.
A look of longing crossed his face.
"That's true. It's not worth confronting them now. We can repay them a hundredfold in the future."
"That's more like it. Your Majesty should be patient for now and take revenge later."
"At that time, it will just be a matter of Her Majesty's word."
Upon hearing this, the female protagonist's anger subsided somewhat.
Consort Jing, Consort Shu, Noble Consort Mo, Noble Lady Li...
Just wait and see.
After returning to the palace, Mo Qian collapsed onto the soft couch.
He was holding a storybook in his hand.
Upon seeing this, Tingzhu looked somewhat helpless.
However, he then felt relieved.
In the past, the master devoted himself to the emperor, spending his days either cooking for the emperor or figuring out the emperor's preferences.
She was heartbroken and saddened once she learned that the emperor had chosen someone else as his concubine.
Nowadays, the master is not as attentive to the emperor as before, and no longer does anything wrong for the emperor. Even if he is a bit lazy and reads some storybooks, he is much better than before.
"Master, it's been so many days, you should get down to business." Xiao Bai was speechless when he saw Mo Qian's lazy and listless appearance.
"It's being processed, it's being processed," Mo Qian said casually when she saw something interesting.
"Master, I didn't see you doing anything, I only saw you reading storybooks all day long," Xiaobai said with a cold laugh.
"No, your master is working hard too," Mo Qian said, taking a break from reading her storybook and looking up.
He looked very disapproving of what Xiaobai said.
"Where's my master, Little White? What did he do?" Little White said speechlessly.
"You'll find out later," Mo Qian said mysteriously.
"Tch~"
"Alright, alright, I'm not teasing you anymore."
"There is indeed something I need you to do," Mo Qian said seriously.
"What is it?" Xiao Bai asked seriously after seeing Mo Qian's serious expression.
"You should stick this loyalty charm on the palace maid who serves the lady's meals."
"Have her sprinkle some of this powder on the female lead's meals each time." With that, Mo Qian took out the talisman and powder from her spatial storage.
"Master, what is this powder?" Little White asked with a curious look.
"You'll find out later," Mo Qian said with a playful expression.
"Hmph, Master is so mean, he didn't even tell Little White."
"Stop being silly and get to work." Mo Qian shivered several times and her face darkened when she heard Xiao Bai's affected voice.
"Okay." After saying that, Xiaobai left.
Mo Qian watched Xiao Bai leave, and the corners of her mouth curled up.
What she had Xiaobai put on the female lead wasn't poison, but rather something to whet her appetite.
The thought of the once delicate and graceful heroine transforming into a robust and muscular man fills me with anticipation.
A short while later, Xiaobai returned.
"Master, master, the matter is done." Little White looked like it was about to be praised.
"Hmm, Xiaobai is really amazing." Mo Qian said with a smile.
"It's just so-so." A slight blush appeared on her face.
One month later,
"Qinyin, has the meal been delivered yet?"
The female protagonist clutched her stomach, enduring her hunger as she asked.
"Your Highness, I sent someone to urge them, and it will be delivered soon," Qin Yin then said.
"Um."
Not long after, the meal was served.
After seeing the table full of delicacies, the female protagonist disregarded everything else and began to eat them one by one.
After I stopped being so hungry, I ate at a slower pace, but I didn't stop using my chopsticks.
Qin Yin, standing to the side, looked somewhat worried.
In the past, her mistress would only eat a small half bowl.
But lately, I don't know if it's because I'm holding back my anger or for some other reason, but my appetite has increased a lot, and I can eat two bowls at each meal.
At first, she was pleased to see that her mistress was eating more than before.
After all, because she used to eat too little and too bland food, her body was somewhat weak.
However, although her mistress is now much stronger than before, she has also become a bit plump.
She tried to persuade her, but the empress, whose appetite had already been whetted, couldn't control herself.
In addition, there were sycophants who flattered the Empress.
At present, the Empress has not yet realized that she is different from before.
It was also because of the Empress that she was punished by being confined to her room to reflect on her mistakes, which prevented outsiders from finding out.
