On the other side, Consort Qi couldn't hide the joy on her face when she saw Yinzhen coming over.
She did genuinely want to help Zhao Chang with that matter; otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to imitate him so perfectly. However, she didn't expect it to have such a good effect.
Consort Qi thought that Yinzhen would go to Zhao Chang's place! Unexpectedly, Yinzhen had not forgotten her.
"Greetings, Your Majesty. May Your Majesty enjoy boundless blessings and peace."
Yinzhen took Qi Fei's hand and helped her up.
"Get up."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
The two entered the house, and Consort Qi, being thoughtful, led Yinzhen to reminisce about the past and mentioned the Third Prince. Yinzhen then stayed that night.
Yinzhen went to Consort Qi's place. Upon receiving the news, Consort Zhao belatedly realized that she might have been used and became very angry.

Zhao Changzai's eyes lit up: "You mean you want me to show weakness to Consort Qi, and then have Consort Qi push me in front of the Emperor?"
"After all, Consort Qi has served the Emperor for many years. In terms of understanding the Emperor, even the Empress cannot match her. If you can receive Consort Qi's guidance, it will be just around the corner for you to be favored."
