After Hua Rong possessed Consort Mei's body, besides dealing with Xiangcao, she acted entirely according to Consort Mei's personality for the next period of time.
Every day when he went to the Empress's palace to pay his respects, he would argue with the concubines, perfectly embodying the arrogant and domineering image of a favored concubine.
When leaving the house, he would find any excuse to make the concubines who had served him kneel on the ground.
Then, sitting on the sedan chair, she only needed to leave a beautiful silhouette for everyone to see.
She spent several days in the palace before finally meeting Emperor Chengqian for the first time.
This was not the first time Emperor Chengqian had stayed at his place.
It was only because Emperor Chengqian was busy dealing with disasters in the west that he did not come to the inner palace.
This was also the first night that Emperor Chengqian visited the inner palace after a long absence.
We've arrived at Consort Mei's Hidden Plum Palace.
This alone is enough to demonstrate Emperor Chengqian's affection for Consort Mei.
Although this fondness is mixed with other things.
At this time, Emperor Chengqian was still very young. He was handsome and elegant, and had cultivated the etiquette of a monarch over a long period of time.
To be honest, if a young girl saw him, she would definitely be the first person she saw.
Consort Mei did indeed have feelings for Emperor Chengqian.
However, when she realized that Emperor Chengqian treated her no differently than anyone else, she completely gave up hope.
She may have loved Emperor Chengqian, but her feelings were mostly driven by scheming.
She wanted Emperor Chengqian to believe that she loved him, so that her family and herself could be safe.
She was raised in a traditional noble family and understood that as long as her family was good, she would not suffer any grievances in the palace.
Similarly, if she is well in the palace, her family will also benefit.
However, Emperor Chengqian turned around and left as soon as he entered Huarong Palace.
Hua Rong: "..."
It wasn't that Emperor Chengqian was angered by her.
She hasn't done anything yet!
Rather, Emperor Chengqian had official business to attend to.
However, Hua Rong was not in a hurry about immortality.
Her gaze fell on a corner of the palace, and a smile appeared on her lips.
The "Cangfang Pavilion" has twenty courtyards, and each courtyard houses two concubines who have not yet been favored by the emperor.
Liu Yiyi was very unfortunate to become one of them.
She looked up at the sky-blue embroidered curtain with withered lotus flowers, and continued to stare blankly.
She knew that if she didn't leave the entertainment industry, she would eventually face retribution.
She should have left the industry the moment she realized she had become a tool for those people to make money, evade taxes, and launder money.
Why wasn't it refunded?
Is it the fans' adoration, or are they blinded by the glitz and glamour of the industry?
Even Liu Yiyi herself couldn't explain it.
Some things are like a quagmire; once you get in, you can't get out of it.
I don't know if the evidence will be made public after I die.
She hopes it still is.
At least if those people get their comeuppance, she'll feel a little better.
"Crack!"
A sharp impact brought her back to her senses.
She turned her head and saw the palace maid Ruhe, who was serving her, slamming the copper kettle filled with hot water onto the table.
Judging from the sound just now, Liu Yiyi knew that Ruhe had failed to get hot water again.
She's throwing a tantrum!
She sat up and looked at Ruhe with a cold expression.
Ruhe felt a chill run down her spine from her gaze, but the grievances she had suffered recently made her feel confident!
"Why are you looking at me, Miss Liu? If it weren't for you offending Consort Dong, we wouldn't even have hot water!"
She plopped down on the stool, showing no sign of being a servant.
"Anyway, I'm not going to ask for hot water. Even though I'm a servant, I don't want to be treated like this!"
Liu Yiyi struggled to sit up, leaned against the headboard, and said indifferently, "Then please have Miss Ruhe pour me a glass of cold water."
Ruhe's face stiffened, feeling awkward, as if Liu Yiyi was openly mocking her.
However, he still deftly poured Liu Yiyi a glass of water.
The cool water made the pain in Liu Yiyi's knees less noticeable.
She looked at the simply made cup in her hand and fell into deep thought.
Her current identity is Liu Yiyi, a beauty presented by a small vassal state of the Great Zhou Dynasty to Emperor Chengqian of Dongyue.
Like the other beauties who did not serve the emperor, she only received the rank of a tenth-grade concubine.
There were ten people in total who came from the Great Zhou Dynasty like her.
Of them, only four had already been chosen to sleep with the emperor.
Unfortunately, one of the concubines, Dong Zhenzhen, did not get along with the original owner of the body.
Unfortunately, Dong Zhenzhen was the most favored of the four beauties who had already served the emperor.
In just three months, he has risen from a tenth-rank official to a sixth-rank talented woman.
This favor is truly immense!
After Dong Zhenzhen took over, she did not forget her old rival, the original owner of the body, and took good care of her.
Not to mention hot water, the food we've been eating these past few days is even worse than what the palace servants have received.
Just two days ago, they even found a reason to punish the original owner by making him kneel for four hours.
Upon returning, he was unable to get out of bed that very day.
The original owner of this body just left like that, which benefited her, who was already a ghost.
Liu Yiyi wasn't afraid of Consort Dong, after all, no matter how difficult she made things for her, she wouldn't directly take her life.
In name only, they are all people of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
What she's thinking about now is how to rise to power.
The original owner's face was no less beautiful than her previous life's.
In addition, she lived a life of luxury, and her figure and skin were of the highest quality.
Some people even don't need to get hyaluronic acid injections in their faces because of their natural good looks.
There's no need to regularly have surgery or undergo minor cosmetic procedures on your face.
With a face like that, it's naturally much easier to rise to power.
