In this way, you can reap the benefits without having to take any action.
Her calculations were as good as ever.
However, she miscalculated.
When this plan was laid out to let Xiao Yan push Concubine Liang completely onto the path of a favored concubine, he guessed that the women in the harem would not be content, and would not sit idly by and wait for death.
She didn't want to get involved in this mess, so the best thing to do was to avoid it. And the confinement was her best excuse. Behind closed doors, let them fight as they pleased. She just had to guard her own little piece of land.
Didn't Xia Yuwei want to be a favorite concubine? Then let her do it. Let her enjoy the glory of being a favorite concubine, while also bearing the dangers that come with being a favorite concubine.
Without Bei Yutang as a shield and Nan Shaotian's protection, she wanted to see if she could withstand a group of ferocious women.
During this period, Xia Yuwei was in great glory.
That day, Jinchai walked into the palace with a bad look on her face. Even though she tried her best to cover it up, she still couldn't escape Bei Yutang's eyes.
"What's wrong?"
Jin Chai wanted to say it was fine, but when she met Bei Yutang's eyes, she immediately confessed obediently, "Your Majesty, I just went to the imperial kitchen to get some red date cakes. I ran into Xia He from Hanxuan Palace. She said her majesty wanted some too, and she snatched it from me. Your Majesty, I was useless. Please punish me."
Jinchai knelt before her, her eyes slightly red. This was the first time she had encountered such a thing since following the Empress to Chenxiao Palace. Concubine Liang was only a concubine, while her mistress was a noble concubine, a rank higher than hers.
She has just been favored, but she doesn't take the empress seriously. She is so arrogant.
Jin Zhu looked at her master with some concern, and couldn't help but glare at Jin Chai, who couldn't hide the truth. What if the queen got angry? Now was not the time to confront Concubine Liang.
Bei Yutang didn't react much, her expression indifferent, "It's just a cake, just think of it as a gift from me to her. You've been wronged today."
Bei Yutang took off the bracelet in her hand and put it on her.
Jinchai looked at her in surprise, "My Lady."
Jinchai was extremely touched. The queen did not blame her, but gave her such a precious bracelet. She was really flattered and deeply moved.
"Alright, for the time being, we should avoid anyone from Hanxuan Palace we come across. You two should tell everyone below to be on the lookout."
"yes."
Bei Yutang looked at the expressions of the two before they left, and a faint smile appeared on her lips. Fortunately, there was the golden bracelet. This girl saw things more clearly than the golden hairpin.
As soon as the two of them walked out, Jinchai said indignantly, "Are we really going to be suppressed by Concubine Liang?"
The golden bracelet poked her forehead angrily, "Fool. If the queen doesn't fight now, she will fight."
"What do you mean?" Jinchai's face was full of question marks.
"Concubine Liang may seem to be in a good position now, but she still needs to be able to stand her ground. For so many years, the master has seemed to be in a good position, but she has suffered countless plots. Do you still remember the incident with Nanny Wang? She almost cost the master her life. If it weren't for the Marquis and the General, the master would have been eaten alive by the women in the harem.
Now that Concubine Liang has gained favor, she's become so arrogant. Do you think all the concubines in the harem are vegetarians? It's the best choice for Your Majesty to stay in the palace right now."
Jinchai understood a little, "I understand."
"So, it's right to listen to the master. Concubine Liang's complacency won't last long." Jin Zhui said firmly.
