Crazy Queen, Striving to Become the Most Beautiful Lady in the Harem

Chapter 332 Everyone’s reaction

Lin Junxue picked up the handkerchief from Danzhen's hand, leaned over, and carefully wiped the sweat off Xie Yu's head.

"Your Majesty, it was I who asked Danzhen to get the incense specially prepared for you by the Imperial Hospital to calm your nerves. I saw that you haven't had enough rest recently, so I wanted to let you sleep a little longer."

Xie Yu's eyes fell on the incense burner, then he retracted them and took Lin Junxue's hand.

"You are so considerate, Jun'er. I slept really well. This incense is very effective in helping me sleep. I'll use it from now on."

Lin Junxue smiled slightly and said softly, "Okay, since the emperor likes it, I will ask the Imperial Hospital to send some more."

Xie Yu nodded "OK"

Afterwards, Lin Junxue personally helped Xie Yu get up and put on the dragon robe, and then the two of them had dinner together.

Tonight, Xie Yu stayed in Zhonghe Palace again.

Second day

When the concubines came to pay their respects,

Lin Junxue told the concubines that the Queen Mother would return to the palace from Yushan in ten days.

Recently, all palaces have to make preparations. The top priority is to welcome the Queen Mother back to the palace and to redecorate the Ci'an Palace.

Upon hearing that the Queen Mother was returning to the palace, the concubines had different reactions, and most of them were surprised.

When the Queen Mother went to Yushan to worship Buddha, she made a harsh statement that she would not return to the palace until five years later.

Sun Manrou and other old people in the palace all knew about this matter.

It has only been more than three years now, why is the Queen Mother coming back?

Lin Junxue took in everyone's expressions and saw Zheng Jin was obviously surprised.

With a curled lip and a slightly deep look in his eyes, Zheng Jin didn’t know that the Queen Mother was going back to the palace?

It seems that the Queen Mother really only regards Zheng Jin as an insignificant chess piece.

If the Queen Mother really values ​​Zheng Jin and wants to recruit her for her own use, she would want to train her to become the second Chen Xier.

The Queen Mother will definitely tell Zheng Jin that she will return in ten days so that Zheng Jin can make preparations early.

Last time, if Zheng Jin had succeeded in framing her with witchcraft, perhaps the Queen Mother would have supported Zheng Jin, but he failed.

In the eyes of the Queen Mother, Zheng Jin is just a useless chess piece, and she probably doesn't want to use him anymore.

Lin Junxue cast her eyes towards Chen Mi. She saw the hesitation for a second clearly and understood clearly.

People who should have known that the Queen Mother had returned to the palace did not know, while people who should not have known the news received the news.

Thus, Chen Mi's transformation seemed to be related to the Queen Mother.

When the Queen Mother returned to the palace this time, it turned out that the person she really valued was not Zheng Jin, but Chen Mi.

I just don’t know what the Queen Mother used or what she promised Duke Chen?

Why did Chen Mi agree to send a letter to the palace to compete for favor?

It's really interesting.

If Chen Mi really formed an alliance with the Queen Mother, then she and Chen Mi would be doomed to fight to the death.

Lin Junxue glanced at Zheng Jin again, whose expression suddenly changed. He was a little stupid, but not completely stupid.

It seems that Zheng Jin has figured out that he has become the Queen Mother's abandoned child.

Sun Manrou said, "The Queen Mother is coming back? Then, Princess, are you coming back with her?"

Sun Manrou has a bad relationship with the eldest princess because the eldest princess looks down on Lin Junxue as the queen.

Naturally, he also looked down on Sun Manrou, who came from a military family, and disliked her for being uncouth and born in the wild land of the northwest.

In fact, the eldest princess herself was a mediocre person, accustomed to extravagance and debauchery, and had no intention of practicing music, chess, calligraphy and painting.

The Queen Mother doted on her children so much that she indulged them and did not discipline them.

Therefore, Sun Manrou often suffered from the eldest princess, but she dared not speak out.

As long as the Queen Mother is alive, no one would dare to touch the Princess.

Lin Junxue said calmly, "Of course, the eldest princess followed the queen mother out of Kyoto and went to Yushan for more than three years. This time when the queen mother returns to the palace, the eldest princess will return with her."

Hearing that the eldest princess would also come back with them, Sun Manrou and some of the concubines looked a little unnatural.

What kind of person is the eldest princess? With all the romantic affairs she has committed, who in Kyoto doesn't know what kind of person the eldest princess is?

Back then, the eldest princess made such a big fuss about the Buddha's son. Even if the emperor and the queen mother wanted to help cover it up, how could they stop the people from talking?

Private discussions have been flying around for a long time. The common people don't know the details, but everyone in the court knows about this matter.

Lin Junxue said nonchalantly, "Okay, today, I will inform you all to go back and get ready. If there is nothing else, you can all leave."

During the brief moment of paying respects, Lin Junxue could feel the resentment of the concubines sitting below.

In the entire hall, only Zhang Yuyan and Li Shiwen were in a good mood.

The other concubines were filled with resentment, but Lin Junxue just pretended not to see it.

If she has any grievances, go find Xie Yu. She won't tolerate these women.

After all the concubines left, Lin Junxue left Zhang Yuyan alone.

in the courtyard

Lin Junxue stood by the pond, watching the koi carps rushing in and scrambling for food.

"Yuyan, in two days, the emperor will issue an edict to confer you the title of Huipin. The ceremony will be held in the next few days. You should be ready. Before the empress dowager returns to the palace, Yuyan, you must take the position of Huipin."

Now, in this harem, Shiwen, and Yuyan are hers and are close to her.

Before the Queen Mother returns to the palace, she will definitely find out the situation in the harem.

Therefore, the higher the position they stand, the better they can protect themselves.

If Yuyan's promotion is delayed until the Queen Mother returns to the palace, who knows what unexpected events might occur?

The empress dowager could control concubines of lower ranks at will, but if they were concubines of higher ranks, she could no longer beat, kill or punish them at will.

Now, Shiwen has the prince by her side, and Yuyan has become Concubine Hui.

So, even if the Queen Mother wanted to do something to the two of them, it wouldn't be that easy.

Zhang Yuyan took the fish food from Danzhen's hand and stepped forward.

"My lady, is your situation like this after the Queen Mother returns to the palace?"

Lin Junxue glanced at Zhang Yuyan and was still a little surprised.

Yuyan was much smarter than she thought, as she could see clearly the antagonistic relationship between her and the Queen Mother.

Lin Junxue's expression was calm and her tone was very calm.

"It's a tough battle where you don't know who will win or lose. If you win, you live; if you lose, nothing is left."

Zhang Yuyan showed some surprise on her face.

She had never seen this side of the Queen since she entered the palace.

Winning or losing means life or death

It seems that there are many unknown things between the Queen Mother and the Empress, otherwise the Empress would never have such an attitude.

Zhang Yuyan thought about it and spoke with a firm tone.

"Your Highness, I will always stand by your side. As long as you need me, I will do my best. Your Highness, you are not alone."

Lin Junxue turned to look at Zhang Yuyan, who had a serious face, and curled her lips.

"Don't worry, even if I have to fight against the king of heaven, I will not admit defeat. I will win and I will keep winning."

Zhang Yuyan looked at Lin Junxue with admiration and couldn't help but sigh.

"Your Highness, I feel that you are trapped in the harem. You should be like your father and brother, fighting on the battlefield and becoming a heroic female general. The harem is a place that has trapped you after all."

Lin Junxue raised her eyes and looked at the sky in all directions. The sound was gone.

"This palace not only traps me, but also traps too many women."
