The palace of the new lotus kingdom, the Zhongcui Palace.

Noon and noon.

According to the usual practice, the concubines who have just been canonized have to go to other concubines with higher positions than her to ask for peace, and Yanyu is currently the lowest nobleman among the eleven concubines, so after the head of An read the holy decree and left, Yanyu took Phantom Lotus out alone, and visited and asked for peace in turn according to the current rank of the major concubines in the palace.

Originally, there should be a total of twelve concubines in the palace, counting the newly canonized titles, but because Concubine Qi died on the wooden beam last night, there are only eleven concubines left in the world.

Moreover, in order to avoid the spread of family scandals, the emperor deliberately ordered the blockade of Concubine Qi's attempt to kill the show girl Yanyu, and told all the people who knew last night to claim that Concubine Qi was too frightened by last night's thunder and lightning, causing her to lose her mind, so she was sent to the royal courtyard outside the palace overnight to recuperate, and then took it back to the palace after she fully recovered, so this scandal of a bad nature did not spread throughout the imperial city before dawn as usual.

The only thing that spread throughout the imperial city was that in addition to Concubine Qi Niangniang who was frightened by lightning and suddenly lost her mind, it was the Chuxiu Palace where the Queen Mother lived in the past was struck by lightning and unfortunately collapsed.

Fortunately, the master and the girl Yanyu did not die because of the collapse of Chuxiu Palace, but was blessed by misfortune, and was officially canonized as a noble person the next morning, and was also given the Zhongcui Palace, which can be regarded as a response to the old saying - if you don't die in a disaster, you will be blessed.

As for the fact that the original owner of Zhongcui Palace, Concubine Qi Niangniang, had already died, Jun Buyu also thought of the external rhetoric, that is, after a period of time, when everyone had forgotten her, he announced that Concubine Qi Niangniang died in the royal courtyard, and then buried in a beautiful manner, so this scandal was naturally covered up.

Of course, the people outside the palace can be kept in the dark, but the concubines living in the palace are well aware of last night's incident, because they have already installed a lot of secret eyeliner in the palace during the year they have been in the palace, so the slightest disturbance will reach their ears as soon as possible.

This can't blame these concubines for being too curious, or too cautious, after all, accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger, especially in this sinister harem of intrigue, deceit, and deceit, so that they can have a place to settle down and not fall victim to the palace fight.

Although these concubines are hostile to each other in order to compete for favor, and even to compete for the position of the only queen in the harem, but this time in the face of Yanyu's sudden promotion from a show girl to a nobleman, they invariably stood on the same front, that is, they collectively pretended to be sick and refused Yanyu's one-by-one visit and greetings, which can be regarded as giving the newcomer Yanyu a dismount.

Therefore, from the time of three o'clock in the morning, after the head of An left, it was already noon at this time, and Yan Yu, accompanied by Phantom Lian, continued to eat closed-door soup, and each time he stood at the door for a long time before he was told that the other party was not a guest today.

This also made Yanyu feel helpless, and it also made the upright Phantom Lotus angry.

In fact, Yanyu also went with the mentality of sincerely interacting with other sisters, and did not want to have a stiff relationship with other concubines, after all, they all live in the palace, and they don't see anyone who looks up and looks down, and it is naturally best to get along in harmony, so that everyone will not be tired, and it will not let the emperor who is worried about national affairs no longer worry about the harem.

It's a pity that it backfired, and what Yanyu, who carefully prepared the meeting gift before leaving, didn't expect that from the imperial concubine to the concubine, there were other concubines who, without exception, claimed to be ill and could not meet guests, and even another noble person of the same level as her refused to see her, which was enough to see that the other concubines did not approve of her promotion at all.

In this regard, the talented and intelligent Yanyu also quickly figured out the reason, that is, after all, she has been sick, and she has not even participated in the formal show girl selection process, so how can she serve the public?

Therefore, she was not very angry, and every time she visited a palace, she still politely asked the messenger to convey her greetings to the sisters when she left, and wished them a speedy recovery, and when the sisters were well, she would come again to say goodbye.

Due to the large size of this palace, and the fact that each palace invariably made Yanyu wait at the door for a long time before replying to the guests, it was already past noon by the time Yanyu and Phantom Lotus returned to the gate of Zhongcui Palace.

Despite this, Yanyu still did not complain about those concubines, but secretly swore in her heart that she would work hard to improve her ability and knowledge, and one day, she would convince all the concubines who disobeyed her to admit her.

Because Yanyu firmly believes in convincing people with virtue and repaying grievances with virtue, she will not do anything for the dignity of the queen like other concubines, and even destroy her conscience to kill innocents, she has her own way of doing things and the bottom line of life.

Regarding Concubine Qi's intention to kill her on the spot last night, although Yanyu didn't dare to agree, she just pretended to be dead and just wanted the emperor to demote her and punish her, and after a while, she went to enlighten Concubine Qi Niangniang and guide her to start life in the palace again, and she didn't want to get rid of Concubine Qi.

It's just that she didn't expect Concubine Qi to commit suicide directly on the spot, which also made her feel a little guilty afterwards.

It is also to remind herself again that she should be more cautious and cautious in the future, to discover such a crisis as early as possible, and to resolve it in time before the tragedy does not cause casualties, which is what she should do, and only then can she feel at ease.

Even she has some extravagant hopes that Concubine Qi is not really dead, in that case, she will definitely help Concubine Qi Niangniang change her mind, no longer do such a heartbreaking mistake, and truly learn how to live in harmony with other concubines in the palace.

Although Yanyu is undeniable that she does want to finally become the only most noble queen mother in the eyes of the emperor, she doesn't want to get rid of other concubines to achieve this goal, but sincerely influences them to become good sisters, so that everyone willingly respects her as a queen mother.

It's just that in order to do this, Yanyu understands that the road ahead is really difficult, even step by step, and it is not an exaggeration to walk on thin ice.

But Yanyu has the confidence to always adhere to the original intention of treating people with sincerity, so that he can survive well in this deep palace compound where he will never recover.

Only by surviving can she have the opportunity to return to the Lotus Immortal Kingdom, investigate her true background, and then defeat the woman who secretly framed her, regain her status as a saint, and finally live a beautiful life that only belongs to the two of them with her beloved Saint Monarch.

It's just that this is all later, and all she has to do now is to be a good nobleman and start a new life in the palace.

When Yanyu, accompanied by Phantom Lotus, visited all the other concubines and just entered the gate of Zhongcui Palace a little tiredly, he was also surprised!

Because she saw that in the courtyard at the door, all the palace maids, eunuchs and royal guards of the Zhongcui Palace were kneeling neatly.

Yanyu, who didn't know why, hurriedly went over and beckoned everyone to get up and talk one by one, and asked the reason with concern, but all the people kneeling on the ground replied that they or they all had a last resort, and begged the Lian nobles, that is, Yanyu, to raise their noble hands and let them go to the palaces of the other concubines, otherwise they would rather die here than continue to stay in the Zhongcui Palace.

After listening to everyone's pleas to force each other to death and ask to leave Zhong Cui Palace, Phantom Lian was also so angry that she scolded them on the spot or they dared to coerce their masters, and committed the following crimes.

It's just that Phantom Lian just scolded a few words, and was stopped on the spot by the empathetic Yanyu.

Because how could Bing Xue and the smart Yanyu not think that all this was masterminded by someone behind the scenes, and the bitterness that they or they had to say must have been caused by the coercion and lure of them or their families by the mastermind behind the scenes, so that there was an extremely embarrassing scene at this moment.

So Yanyu knew that if she resolutely disagreed, maybe this Zhong Cui Palace would really bleed again.

For Yanyu, she already felt deeply guilty for the death of a Qi concubine last night, so at this moment, she really didn't want anyone to be killed or injured.

After figuring out the reason, Yanyu was also empathetic, and said reasonably: "You don't need to say much, Yanyu is not talented, but you can still understand everyone's suffering." Since everyone can have a better future after leaving Zhongcui Palace, Yanyu is naturally willing to be an adult. Then please line up and go through the procedures for transferring out of Zhongcui Palace here in turn at Phantom Lotus, and leave as soon as possible. In the end, Yanyu also wants to say a word, that is, if you encounter any difficulties in the future and are willing to believe in Yanyu, you might as well come to Zhongcui Palace to find me, but if I can help everyone, I will never refuse. That's all for today's smoke and rain, and finally I wish you all a happy life that belongs to you. ”

"Phantom Lian, I'll go back to my room and take a rest, and you can come to me after you finish the formalities for everyone."

After finishing speaking, Yanyu turned around and explained to the Phantom Lotus who was still pale, and went back to the dormitory.

"This ...... Yes, Lotus nobleman. ”

Phantom Lotus hesitated extremely unwillingly, and finally replied respectfully.

Because although she felt resentful for Yanyu, she knew that Yanyu didn't like the difficult way of doing things for the strong, and she also knew that even if these people in front of her reluctantly stayed, they might not be loyal to Yanyu, so it was better to let them go or let them leave.

After all, this harem is already full of dangers, and if there are a lot of people with evil intentions around you, it will be even more dangerous.

So even if there are only two people left in this Zhong Cui Palace, she and Yanyu are safer than leaving these heartfelt people in front of you.

After thinking about all this, Phantom Lotus didn't say anything more, and immediately began to handle the procedures for everyone to be transferred out of Zhongcui Palace.

When Phantom Lotus finished the formalities for everyone and sent those people away, he was about to close the gate of Zhongcui Palace, but he saw the palace maids and eunuchs who had just left Zhongcui Palace not far away, kneeling on both sides in a panic, and shouting: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" ”

Phantom Lotus hurriedly took a closer look, only to see a sedan chair that was obviously not met by the emperor, and was being carried by eight eunuchs and slowly walking towards Zhongcui Palace......
