Chapter 626: Reinstated

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The emperor refined medicinal pills to live forever in order to enjoy his blessed life. He had not chosen an heir for many years because he was longing for imperial power and was unwilling to let go.

Consort Xu had taken a step too quickly, causing the emperor to be suspicious.

In Yongning Palace, when Imperial Consort Xu found out that the emperor wanted to summon her, her heart skipped a beat. She did not dare to delay and quickly dressed up before going to the imperial study.

Along the way, Imperial Consort Xu felt very uneasy and had to ask Eunuch Zhu about it.

However, Eunuch Zhu was too tight-lipped and only said, “I’m not sure either. When the Imperial Consort sees the emperor, she’ll naturally know.”

After offending that person, he still wanted to escape unscathed?

She was asking for trouble!

Consort Xu’s left eyebrow twitched violently. At this point, she wouldn’t confuse her left eye with her left eyebrow. She didn’t know if it was true that her left eye was twitching.

But!

Her left eyebrow must be twitching out of danger!

Consort Xu rode the carriage all the way to the imperial study uneasily. The carriage stopped. Auntie Ye helped Consort Xu down and followed Eunuch Zhu into the imperial study.

Eunuch He waited until Imperial Consort Xu’s carriage arrived at the imperial study before carrying the tray into it.

The emperor was leaning against the dragon throne, taking a nap. When he saw her enter, he frowned. “Why were you gone for so long?

Eunuch He walked over quietly and placed the tray on the small table. He held the box containing the medicinal pills in his hand and bent down to hand it over. “The medicinal pills that just came out are still warm.”

There was no need to say anything else. The emperor understood that he had been delayed because he was waiting for the medicinal pills. Hence, his expression softened a little, and he swallowed the medicinal pills and water.

As soon as the medicinal pills entered his stomach, the emperor felt his tired body regain its strength.

At this moment, Eunuch Zhu’s voice came from outside. “Your Majesty, the

Noble Consort is here.”

The emperor sneered. “Come in!”

When Imperial Consort Xu entered the imperial study, she quickly bowed

The emperor had just taken the pills and his entire body was burning. He was flustered. He grabbed the memorial in front of him and threw it at Consort Xu’s face. “Kneel!”

“Your Majesty.” Imperial Consort Xu’s legs went limp and she knelt on the ground. Immediately, tears welled up in her eyes as she said in a sorrowful voice, “I…

The emperor stared at Consort Xu with his red eyes. “Send the phoenix seal to the Longevity Palace and hand it over to the Empress Dowager. You!” He slowly stood up and pointed at Consort Xu. His dark purple lips turned cold. “You’ll be punished with half a year of silver. The palace’s allocation will be halved and you’ll be grounded for three months.” He looked at Consort Xu’s shocked eyes. “Since Third Prince fell into the water and damaged his body and needs to recuperate, it’s good that he’s recuperating in the palace. Without my permission, you’re not allowed to step out of the palace door!”

Imperial Consort Xu’s body went limp as she explained miserably, “Your

Majesty, I don’t know what mistake I made to provoke you…’

The emperor was so frustrated that he was sweating. He panted heavily through his nose and glared at Consort Xu with red eyes. He was furious.

“Don’t you know? You covet my empire. Do you also want me to die early? Are you also wishing for my death in private? Are you cursing me too? You b*tch…”

His roar was like a beast’s, filled with ferocity. He stared fixedly at Consort Xu, wishing he could pounce on her and tear her apart.

Imperial Consort Xu looked at the emperor in horror. Her eyes were dark and wide, and they were shockingly red. There was a strange flush on both sides of his face, making his face look even more distorted, as if he wanted to eat someone.

“Your, Your Majesty, I’m innocent…” Imperial Consort Xu’s body fell back. She placed her hands on her back and cowered in a sorry state, wanting to escape.

She had long heard that every time the emperor took a pill, he would be delirious, angry, and temperamental for no reason.

At this moment, Eunuch Zhu, who was guarding outside the imperial study, knocked on the door lightly. “Your Majesty, Auntie Dan Hong from Yi Kun Palace just came over and asked me to send a message to the emperor. She said that the Empress misses the milk cake that Consort Lu made back then.”

The furious emperor sneered. “If she wants to eat it, let Concubine Lu make it for her. She even came over to bother me with such a small matter.”

At this point, he seemed to have recalled that Concubine Lu had been sent to the cold palace and had even been conferred the title of Concubine Lan. However, everyone in the palace addressed her as Concubine Lu.

The emperor glanced at Consort Xu, who was in fear and trepidation. He couldn’t help but think of his first wife, who cursed him to die early at all times. He had originally thought that Consort Xu was still considered obedient, but who knew that she was also a b*tch with ulterior motives? Among the women in the palace, only Concubine Lu had followed him the longest.

Other than Ning Yuanbo’s residence, Concubine Lan had indeed never bothered him all these years.

The emperor sneered. “Someone, send my decree. From today onwards, Concubine Lu will be reinstated as Concubine Lan…

At this moment, Concubine Lu, who was in the cold palace, was holding a teacup and listening to the little palace maid report the commotion in the palace.

She was wearing a light green soft Yanluo style outfit. There was a deeper meaning behind it. Since she entered the Cold Palace, she should act like a

Concubine of the Cold Palace. It’s better to be plain than show off and anger everyone.

However, even a light color could not suppress her beauty.

Concubine Lu had been with the emperor from the very beginning. When she was Secondary Concubine Lu, she was already glorious and doted on. Later on, after the emperor ascended the throne, she rose from a concubine to an imperial consort. She even took charge of the phoenix seal and governed the harem.

Even after entering the Cold Palace, she was a huge force with deep roots who could still control the lives of those people, forcing them to continue working for her and not dare to betray her easily.

Moreover, as long as the Second Prince did not fall and Concubine Lu did not die, it was only a matter of time before she made a comeback.

After the little palace maid finished reporting, Concubine Lu i s lips curled up.

“Your scheme is quite good. If it weren’t for the fact that Ning Yuanbo’s Residence had long become enemies with the Yu Residence back then, I would have given Eldest Miss Yu the position of the main concubine.”

In the palace, a child’s status depended on its mother. Consort Xu was the head of the concubines and was in charge of the Phoenix Seal. She had the backing of the Xu family and thought that the Third Prince’s status was the most important. Although she knew very well the value of Eldest Miss Yu, she couldn’t bear to give her the position of the main concubine. Instead, she wanted to use her reputation as the eldest daughter of the first wife who had passed away and was carefully raised.

Three years ago, she indeed did not take Eldest Miss Yu seriously.

However, things were different now. There was a drought everywhere in the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the treasury was empty. The Yu and Xie Residences were ultimately a little eye-catching.

Concubine Lu felt a little regretful, so she changed the topic. “It’s just that she’s not as good in the end. Is she a spy? She’s just like the emperor. She doesn’t know the emperor better than me. Does she think that the best time for the Third Prince to take over is when I enter the Cold Palace and she’s in charge of the phoenix seal?”

The little palace maid lowered her eyes and did not dare to speak.

“Idiot.” Concubine Lu gently lifted the lid of the teacup. Her fingers loosened, and the lid was placed back on the teacup with a clang. “She thinks she’s me.. Why didn’t she stay in the Orchid Palace? Why did she come to the Cold Palace to be a concubine?”
