"Yes!" The Empress opened her eyes and felt relieved. As long as she ate the medicinal cuisine, it would be fine. Thinking of what the Empress Dowager had said when she went to Ci 'an Palace to pay her respects to the Empress Dowager, her eyes darkened.
Fortunately, she had struck first. If a small noble had given birth to the eldest son before her, she would probably not be able to sleep well.
"Granny Sun, is the palace banquet in the afternoon ready?”This was the highlight of the show, so he couldn't be careless.
"Replying to the Empress, everything is ready." Granny Sun smiled.”
"What did Gongpin do?" The Empress nodded in satisfaction and asked the restless Gongpin.
"Your Ladyship truly has divine foresight. Gongpin's Ladyship finally couldn't hold it in anymore!”
The Empress laughed.”This Gongpin is a good chess piece!
"Empress, another person has also made a move. If it wasn't for the people below being clever, I'm afraid they wouldn't have discovered any clues!”Granny Sun said in a low, mysterious voice, a glimmer of light flashing in her eyes.
"Who is it?" The Empress frowned, her face filled with shock.
Granny Sun whispered a few words into the Empress 'ear.
"It's actually her. I didn't expect that on the first day, she couldn't help it!”The Empress sneered and narrowed her eyes." Since she has made a move, let's not get involved!”
…………………………
After the morning court session, Murong Che returned to the Purple Mansion Hall and dismissed all the eunuchs and servants, leaving only Little Li behind.
Murong Che rubbed the thumb ring in his hand and narrowed his cold eyes.
No one knew why Murong Che chose Liu Weirong to be the first to sleep with him and even stayed the night, pushing her to the cusp of the storm.
He was testing her, but that was not his goal.
He once had three princes. Regardless of whether they were healthy or weak, none of them lived past the age of three.
Now he was twenty-eight years old, but he did not have a prince.
The issue of heirs was already the top priority.
The women in the harem were all restless. All the women above the Consort position had a large family behind them. Now, in the court, they could still check and balance each other, so the eldest son could not be born by any of them.
Otherwise, it would break the balance between the former dynasty and the harem.
Therefore, he chose Liu Weirong, who was extremely healthy but had no support behind her.
It would be fine if she passed his test. If not, he had other candidates.
Little Li lowered his head." Reporting to Your Majesty, after you left, the Empress bestowed a bowl of nourishing medicinal cuisine to Noble De. This servant has gone to the Imperial Academy of Medicine to inquire. There is no problem."”
"Yes!" Murong Che couldn't deny it. The Director of the Imperial Academy of Medicine had already reported this matter to him.
"The other consorts have some unusual actions, and the signs are all pointing to Noble De…"
"Don't worry about this. Let her handle it herself!”Murong Che's expression did not change as he said casually. Then, he gave an order,""Pick a clean and literate noble Momo De from the Internal Affairs Office and send him over.”
The cleanliness here meant that there was no one behind him.
"This servant obeys!"
Little Li sighed in his heart. A ruler's heart was hard to predict. He had thought that the Emperor liked Noble De, but now it seemed like that was not the case. Poor Noble De!
He had incurred the jealousy and hatred of the women in the harem for no reason!! He reckoned that the days ahead would be very exciting.
…………
Roufu Palace, Yilan Hall
White Lotus was quietly reporting Xiang 'er's problem to her. Liu Weirong's expression did not change when she heard it, so calm that it was as if nothing had happened.
Seeing this, Bai Lian frowned. If her master did not punish Xiang 'er, it would definitely cause a disaster in the future. If something happened to her master, how would she explain it to her master?
She still remembered that when Old Master assigned her to Third Miss, he had ordered that if Master was selected to enter the palace in the future, she must protect Master well and eliminate any servants who had disloyal intentions.
Of course, there was also a saying that everything was for the benefit of the young miss.
Eldest Young Miss and Third Young Miss had always given people the impression that they had a good relationship as sisters. Perhaps Old Master also thought so?
But what did she see? Eldest Young Miss actually gave Third Young Miss that kind of rouge. After using it for a long time, her appearance would be ruined. Even if she was loyal to Old Master, her current master was Third Young Miss. However, Eldest Young Miss used such a method to deal with Third Young Miss, which made her heart feel cold.
Seeing that his master did not respond for a long time, White Lotus said carefully," Master, Xiang 'er…"
Liu Weirong looked at the blooming flowers outside the window and sighed. She said lightly,""Find out if there is anyone behind her and find a reason to send her to the Punishment Division.”
The slaves who entered the Punishment Division would be skinned alive even if they did not die.
She didn't want to do this, but after hearing Bai Lian's words, she realized that Xiang 'er was a big-hearted and ambitious person. Such a servant would easily betray her master.
After a long time, she finally made up her mind to let Bai Lian set a trap for Xiang 'er and put an end to this ticking time bomb.
She laughed at herself. It had only been half a month since ancient times, but her mentality had changed so much. It turned out that she was also a ruthless woman.
Hearing this, Bai Lian looked at Liu Weirong's beautiful side profile and heaved a sigh of relief. It seemed that her master still had a sense of crisis.
"Master, isn't it a bit too urgent to send them to the Punishment Division?" White Lotus asked after some thought.
It didn't seem right for the master to send a palace maid to the Punishment Division after receiving his favor.
Liu Weirong pursed her lips and said," We have to choose the right time to act. We must hit the target with one strike. If we miss, we will retreat. So Xiang 'er cannot be left alive. Moreover, I have no connections in the palace. It's better to remove this unstable factor...""Moreover, the ownerless slaves are all watching now. Have you found out about the two ownerless slaves that were assigned to us? No!"
Which of the palace maids, eunuchs, and old women in the palace didn't have a few good friends?
This was reality. So what if she won first place? Her status was low, and she had attracted jealousy. It was hard to say whether she could avoid the framing of a high-ranking concubine. Which servant in the palace was not a shrewd person?
However, there was still a long way to go. He had just entered the palace. There was no hurry.
It needs to be planned slowly.
Therefore, the most important thing now is to get rid of the unstable factors around you and try your best to make the Emperor pay attention to you.
Murong Che was young and handsome. In the modern world, he was a rich and handsome man with power and influence. He would just take it as having another lifelong bed partner and give birth to a little bun as soon as possible.
" But, it'll be detrimental to Master's reputation…" White Lotus frowned.
Liu Weirong narrowed her eyes." Isn't it normal to dismiss a servant who has made a mistake?”He emphasized that he had made a mistake.
She had read many palace novels. Many female leads would not deal with those disloyal servants in time, resulting in a series of disasters that hurt both themselves and themselves.
Reputation? He only sent a servant away and still had to care about his reputation?
Paying too much attention to this thing would cause one to lose even more things.
After discussing how to get rid of Xiang 'er, it was almost noon. After lunch, Liu Weirong took a nap on the bed to prepare for the afternoon banquet.
As a noble, he needed to arrive at Fragrance Garden early.
In Fragrance Garden, a few unfamiliar nobles and a few low-ranking people had already arrived. When they saw Liu Weirong, they all looked at her with envy and jealousy in their eyes.
A palace maid came forward and led Liu Wei Rong to sit in front of the nobles. The nobles promised to bow to her and nodded at them before sitting down. A stranger smiled at Liu Wei Rong.
After taking their seats, the palace maids served snacks and tea.
Liu Wei Rong smiled and greeted the calm and indifferent noble beside her. She was surprised to learn that she was Noble Liu, Murong Che's concubine when he was still a prince.
With her keen intuition, this Noble Liu in front of her was worth befriending.
While chatting, she suddenly realized that Liu Guiren was unable to give birth again. No wonder she was so calm.
The two of them chatted happily. At the end, Liu Weirong said,""If you have time in the future, you can visit your sister!”
Liu Guiren nodded with a smile. She had a good impression of Liu Weirong, so she invited her to her place.
Not long after, Liu Xiangya came over. She had been carefully dressed up. Her beautiful eyes were moving, her cherry lips were smiling, and her beauty was shining. She was more beautiful than everyone else present. She walked straight to Liu Weirong's seat.
