You know, the rouge and powder in ancient times contained a very high amount of lead.
Not good for the baby.
"It's already this late, why hasn't the concubine come yet?"
He Xuanrong talked a lot today.
It seems that he is using this method to hide his restless heart.
The maid next to her reminded her, "Your Majesty, have you forgotten that the Imperial Concubine is unwell and someone has been sent to inform her?"
He Xuanrong: “…” Do I need you to remind me?
"Never mind, she's not feeling well. Let her rest for a few more days. She doesn't need to come to pay her respects for the next half month."
"The Queen is so magnanimous." The person who spoke was Princess Yuepin of Beiliang.
He Xuanrong smiled and said, "We are all sisters in the harem, serving the emperor together. It is only natural that we should take care of each other."
"But Yuepin...when you opened your mouth, it reminded me that your title seems to overlap with Li Fei's."
Concubine Li, also known as Zhu Xianyue, also has the character "yue" in her name.
"How about this? I'll report to the Emperor and give you a better-sounding title. How about that?"
Yuepin: "..."
Of course she didn't want to.
She is five years younger than Zhu Xianyue and entered the palace later.
Because of her performance of the song "Dance of the Bright Moon", she was cared for by Xiao Jingyi and was named Yuepin.
At first, she looked down on Zhu Xianyue.
At that time, both of them were concubines, but Zhu Xianyue did not have a title, so she was naturally inferior to her.
But now it's different.
Zhu Xianyue instantly became Concubine Li.
When you see her, you have to bow to her.
Now even the Empress is on Zhu Xianyue's side, asking her to change her title...
Concubine Yue twisted the handkerchief with her jade fingers and cursed Zhu Xianyue over and over again in her heart.
"It's up to your Majesty and the Emperor to decide. It's just a title, so I naturally have no objection."
Yuepin said this, but she was gritting her teeth.
Obviously, it was forced.
"Princess Yue is really sensible." He Xuanrong said.
She deliberately sided with Zhu Xianyue, provoking her into a fight and making her the target of public criticism.
He Xuanrong is far from being as virtuous as she appears.
Zhu Xianyue didn't say anything.
She doesn't care about that.
It's just because she is not standing high enough now, so some people still dislike her.
Once she becomes queen, these women will automatically curry favor with her.
By then, Concubine Yue might ask to change her title.
But she needs to be careful during the first three months of pregnancy, so she has to restrain herself temporarily.
Not only that, you also have to find a scapegoat to protect yourself.
So, after greeting He Xuanrong, Zhu Xianyue went to Gao Zemei's Chaoyang Palace.
…
"Greetings to Concubine Li."
"Our queen is not feeling well and is not seeing any visitors. Please go back, Concubine Li."
Zhu Xianyue was stopped outside.
Concubine Yue happened to pass by and snorted coldly, "You're just trying to please a cold butt."
She was angry, and now seeing Zhu Xianyue being stopped by the palace maids of Chaoyang Palace, she couldn't help but mock her.
Zhu Xianyue looked back and smiled gently, "Sister Yuepin, do you know what 'disaster comes from the mouth' means?"
Yuepin: "..."
Zhu Xianyue's smile was as beautiful as a flower, but she felt the biting cold wind.
Thinking of the deaths of Lamei and Dongju, the screams could be heard throughout the palace.
Concubine Yue couldn't help but shiver.
"Your Highness... Your Highness is just talking about yourself. Please don't mind me, Empress Li..."
"I am just not good at speaking. I can't say anything nice."
"I will return to Chuxiu Palace to reflect on my actions!"
Concubine Yue left as if she was escaping.
Zhu Xianyue sneered.
Haha, you bully the weak and fear the strong.
But this kind of person is also the easiest to deal with.
