Consort Cui had been favored for many years and had plenty of good things to her.
But choosing something that Pei Huanyue would like is not easy, and some things are not suitable as gifts.
Moreover, with the current emperor keeping a close eye on the Crown Prince, Pei Huan Yue's satisfaction is unimportant; what matters is the emperor's delight upon hearing the news. Sending Pei Huan Yue away is ultimately a way to curry favor with the emperor.
Princess Huayang had plenty of good things. When she married, her dowry was truly magnificent, stretching for miles.
Later, Princess Yongjia couldn't compare to her and was incredibly jealous.
Princess Huayang had always done well, so when her grandmother passed away, she was given many gifts.
While Consort Cui was waiting to deliver the gifts, she received the firsthand gossip from Consort Di.
Princess Huayang blinked. The Empress must be furious when she receives the news.
Putting everything else aside, Qing'e defied the Empress and is becoming increasingly favored; no one can swallow this insult.
Consort Cui said in a low voice, "I didn't lose back then."
Lady Dong won against Empress Mingde in the Eastern Palace, but now she has lost to her daughter-in-law in the Central Palace.
The sound of wind and rain seemed to drift in from the chaos of war in the central palace; it was truly chaotic.
Princess Huayang was anxious because Empress Dong had been empress for many years, but the crown prince was not in her hands.
In fact, if Lady Dong hadn't acted that way, she might have become Empress Dowager and still have favored her own son.
But things aren't always like that. She also had to take care of the entire Dong family.
Dong could become Empress Dowager, but Di's nephew would definitely take better care of the Di family in the future.
Princess Huayang offered a suggestion: "Send more gold and silver. The Pei family is in decline and they aren't really good to Qing'e. Qing'e will have many expenses in the future, so sending gold and silver is the most practical thing to do."
Consort Cui nodded, "Gold and silver are easy to give."
Pick out some jewelry, silk, and some gold and silver—that would be wonderful.

Zichen Palace.
Now only the current emperor and the crown prince remain.
The father knows that he is taking a concubine today, but he is unwilling, and his father is not forcing him.
If the Crown Prince treats Consort Di better today, she will become even more arrogant.
A eunuch entered and quietly told the Empress about the trouble in the palace.
Looking at her son now, she was reminded of his mother. When Consort Di was in the Eastern Palace, things were quite stable.
He respected his first wife, but unexpectedly lost two sons in a row, leaving him without a legitimate heir and his position unstable, which made him somewhat resentful.
Now that he's getting old, he sighed to his son, "I've let your mother down."
Xie Zhou hurriedly apologized on behalf of his mother.
Today, he spoke earnestly to his son: "Your wife is a good woman; don't let her down."
Yes, Xie Zhou kowtowed to his father and promised.
This Pei family is different from the previous one; this one is indeed good.
They actually want a divorce? We'll settle this score later.
I now think that the Pei family is very cunning, so I won't interfere in the young couple's affairs.
Another eunuch came and whispered, "Consort Di is blocking the entrance to Qing'e Palace."
The emperor was so angry he was speechless. How dare a concubine storm Qing'e Palace on her very first day in the palace?
Xie Zhou knelt down and kowtowed to his father, the emperor.
He waved his hand, that was enough. He had probably figured out what was going on with Lady Pei and was guessing he was going to teach Consort Di a lesson.
As long as no one is killed, I don't care.
The emperor then sent someone to deliver a message: "I have something to do with Erlang."
There were so many things to do that Consort Di dared to storm the Zichen Palace.
The eunuch quietly withdrew, thinking to himself that Empress Pei was not someone to be trifled with! Although it was also the Emperor's dissatisfaction with Di Baose.
**
Even the rain couldn't stop countless eyes from staring at the Eastern Palace, wishing they could climb over the wall, crack some melon seeds, and join in the commotion.
Previously, everyone knew that Miss Di and Miss Pei were the two beauties of Sheng'an.
They also knew that Miss Di's status was higher than Miss Pei's, but in other aspects they were evenly matched.
While Miss Di is still throwing a tantrum, the Crown Princess has already ascended to heaven in a magnificent manner!
As news of the Zichen Palace spread, everyone was both amazed and shocked!
Lady Pei destroyed the Pei family. What kind of person does that?
Empress Pei almost forced a group of high-ranking officials to lose face. How could she do such a thing?
Consort Pei even criticized the Empress. What kind of person does that?
People say she's unfilial and disrespectful, but as long as the saint protects her, everyone else remains silent.
The difference between Consort Pei and the Empress is that the Empress throws a tantrum and threatens to die, while Consort Pei chooses to cultivate herself and pray for His Majesty's well-being. That is the difference.
The Empress is still throwing a tantrum, so who cares whether Consort Pei is respectful or not?
Now, let's see the ultimate showdown between the two beauties of Sheng'an!
I wonder if Consort Di can bring down Consort Pei?
If that doesn't work, then Consort Pei's position will be secure.
Therefore, this was a battle of extraordinary significance.
Therefore, it has attracted widespread attention.
Huan Yue returned to Qing'e Palace, and having done some activities, he planned to eat a larger meal for dinner.
She's a patient now, so naturally she can eat and sleep well. As for Pei Bo being beaten, he'll be sent back to the Pei residence. The Emperor ordered him to be beaten; what can Huan Yue's wife do?
The bride is considered to be from Chengxiang Palace, so she's keeping quiet here to give them face.
Unexpectedly, what Di Baose liked was: Come on, let's have some fun together!
She was a concubine, and since the situation wasn't right, she planned to make a scene herself!
Huan Yue was in a real bind.
Huiqing also had a headache, but she quickly started dressing up the Empress.
Chaoyun went to the front to prepare. Since Consort Di insisted, everyone should play with her.
At night, the wind and rain were heavy. Huan Yue vaguely heard someone banging on the door. Were they planning to break in?
Huan Yue asked, "Neither the Di family nor the Zheng family produces military generals, right?"
Huiqing remained silent.
Huan Yue reassured him, "Fortunately, the pot was filled with meat."
The palace maid corrected, "It's the meat that's rotted in the pot."
Huan Yue praised, "You understand better than that piece of meat."
The little palace maid was terrified; if Di Baose found out, he might skin her alive.
However, no one should care about this place.
