Ever since Tianyao and Yun Chu had a long talk that night, he had never come to the Warm Heart Palace again. He only transferred Yan Mei to the Warm Heart Hall to take care of Yun Chu. Yun Chu was very happy to see Yan Mei. Yan Mei even shed tears. He touched Yun Chu's pale face and felt a wave of bitterness in his heart.
The day after Yun Chu's accident, Qing Zhu came again. She was relieved to find out that Yun Chu's fainting was just an accident. Seeing that Yun Chu seemed to be much more cheerful than before, she was secretly happy. Finally, she did not waste so many days of effort.
Empress Dowager Palace.
"In the blink of an eye, it has been almost a month since I entered the palace, but His Majesty still hasn't doted on Yan He. I really don't know what to do.”Shang Zhirong looked at Shang Rui, who had a gloomy expression on his face.
"His Majesty has also been targeting our Shang Family in the Imperial Court. Only yesterday did he take back the jurisdiction of the canal. It seems that His Majesty has made up his mind to punish our Shang family.”Shang Rui's expression turned even uglier.
"What should we do?" Shang Zhirong was at a loss.
"The most important thing is to let Yan He have a dragon descendant as soon as possible and ascend to the throne.”Shang Rui looked at Shang Zhirong and said solemnly.
"Father also knows that His Majesty is now deliberately distancing herself from Yan He. How can Yan He have the chance to get pregnant with a dragon descendant?”Shang Zhirong said with a face full of worry.
"Isn't it easy for a woman to seduce a man? As long as Yan He could put down her status, wouldn't it be just around the corner for her to have a dragon descendant?”Shang Rui looked at Shang Zhirong with a serious expression.
"But Father, you know that child Yan He better than I do. That child looks gentle and gentle on the surface, but she is very stubborn in her bones. Wanting to persuade Yan He to lower her status, it was probably not that easy.”Shang Zhirong was in a difficult position.
"That will depend on you. Didn't Yan He also cooperate well with the incident of the De Qing Hall being flooded? In my opinion, that child Yan He has feelings for His Majesty. As long as you persuade her properly, she will definitely do it. He only hoped that Yan He wouldn't fall too deeply in love. After all, falling in love with an Emperor wasn't a good thing.”Shang Rui sighed deeply.
Shang Zhirong looked at Shang Rui with a faint bitter smile on her face. Falling in love with the Emperor was indeed not a good thing.
In a side hall of the Empress Dowager Palace.
"The Empress Dowager is looking for me." Yan He entered the room in a blue palace dress. He didn't look too good.
"Yanhe, there's no need to be so polite.”Shang Zhirong waved her hand, indicating for Yan He to come over, her face full of affection.
Yan He sat down beside Shang Zhirong. "Yan He heard that grandfather came to the Empress Dowager's Palace today. Grandfather must have something to instruct you."”
Shang Zhirong looked at Yan He's sensible face and felt her heart ache. She tried her best to soften her voice."Yes, your grandfather did come today and told me something.”
"Empress Dowager, feel free to speak." Yan He said understandingly.
Shang Zhirong nodded and continued,"Yan He, you also know that our Shang Family's women's lives are destined. We are destined to be sent to the palace to serve the Emperor for the family's glory. As the daughter of the Shang Family, this is something that cannot be changed. It is also our responsibility as descendants of the Shang Family.”Shang Zhirong looked at the indifferent Yan He and continued," As the representatives of the Shang Family, our honor and disgrace in the harem is the honor and disgrace of the Shang Family. We must think of ways to please His Majesty to consolidate our Shang Family's position in the Heavenly Sun Dynasty. However, Yan He, you are the only woman in our Shang Clan in this generation. Whether the Shang Clan will be able to protect the harem or not is all up to you. Now, His Majesty is obviously dissatisfied with the Shang Family and has intentionally distanced himself from you. However, you can't accept your fate. As the daughter of the Shang Family, you must fight for His Majesty's favor. Your grandfather is already old and your father is useless. The future glory of the Shang Family depends on you. Even if he suffered some humiliation now, it was just to pave the way for future glory.”
"Yan He understands what the Empress Dowager said. What does grandfather want Yan He to do?”Yan He had an obedient expression. This made Shang Zhirong's heart ache even more, and she didn't know how to continue.
"Empress Dowager, say it. Yan He is not only Yan He, but also Shang Yan He.”Yan He looked at Shang Zhirong with determination.
"Your grandfather wants you to obtain His Majesty's favor as soon as possible, get pregnant with a dragon descendant as soon as possible, ascend to the throne, and control the harem.”Shang Zhirong looked at Yu Fu with a serious expression.
"Yanhe knows." Yan He nodded obediently and asked,"Then what should Yan He do?"
In this harem, it was either for themselves or for the family. For the latter, what was the so-called dignity?
Tian Yao had just returned from Zhaoyi Hall and was filled with joy. After not seeing Tian Chen for a few days, he had grown up a lot and became even more likable. After all, Tian Chen was Tianyao's first child. He really doted on him.
As soon as he entered the Hall of Political Decrees, he saw a woman in blue standing beside a desk. Looking carefully, it was actually Shang Yanhe, who had not appeared for a long time. Tianyao was rather surprised, but he still had a frosty look on his face that was hard to read.
"Greetings, Your Majesty." Yan He bowed. She was dressed exquisitely. It was obvious that she had dressed up meticulously.
"I don't know why Consort De has come here. Do you know that the concubines of the Political Announcement Hall are not allowed to enter without permission?”Tianyao said coldly. He didn't know what tricks the woman from the Shang Family was up to this time.
"ChenQie indeed has something to report to Your Majesty.”Yan He looked at Tian Yao and said seriously.
"All of you can leave." Tian Yao continued to look at Yan He coldly. He thought to himself, I want to see what tricks you can play.
The palace servants all retreated after receiving the order. Only Tianyao and Yan He were left in the huge Hall of Political Announcement.
Yan He dragged her exhausted body back to the Empress Dowager Palace. Shang Zhirong came up with a worried expression." Yanhe, are you alright?”
Yan He smiled and said,"Empress Dowager, ChenQie has done it, but ChenQie has a request that I hope Empress Dowager will agree to."”
"Tell me." Shang Zhirong helped Yan He to sit down at the table.
"De Qing Hall has been repaired. ChenQie plans to move back to De Qing Hall tomorrow.”Yan He said.
"En, since Yan He said it, then this widow will agree to this matter.”Shang Zhirong said with a pained expression.
"Also, can Empress Dowager please not call ChenQie Yan He in the future, but ChenQie Consort De?”Yan He said with tears in her eyes.
There were people dying every day in this palace. Some people were completely destroyed, but the most tragic thing was that only their bodies were left, wandering in this lonely palace. No one knew when it would end.
