Chapter 156 - Emperor Xian had entered the palace

As Qin Luofei said this, she called for someone to bring over the wooden box in her room. Inside the box were several hundred thousand taels of silver in banknotes. It was enough for everyone to live for a while.

All the banknotes in the palace were marked, so it was unlikely they could be used by the commoners.

When the instructions were given, Qin Luofei felt her entire body go limp.

It was fortunate that she had been prepared in advance for this day.

The empress dowager wasn't someone she could manage, and she didn't want to bother with the Du Family either. Her previous life's death was also related to her, so she could just treat it as her paying back her debts.

Two days later, the late emperor led his men to attack the imperial palace, and the guards on the outskirts surrendered without any resistance.

The gates to the palace were easily opened. When the soldiers rushed into the palace, they found Concubine Qin bringing along the palace's eunuchs and maids to kneel at the sides of the palace while the Empress Dowager and the empress dowager stood at the front of the palace.

"This Dowager didn't realize that you would beg This Dowager for the lives of these servants and palace maids." The empress dowager looked at Qin Luofei and laughed involuntarily.

Qin Luofei's well-dressed face slightly lifted as she said: "They were also raised by their parents, and they were not at fault. They shouldn't have died for our sake. "Empress Dowager Xie accepted Luo Fei's request and saved their lives."

"This Dowager only agreed to give you face because you saved my son's life. This Dowager still hates you so much." Her Majesty turned her head and looked at the late Emperor on his tall horse.

The late emperor was also looking at the empress dowager. He got down from his horse and knelt on one knee. "Your son greets the empress dowager."

Before the Empress Dowager could speak, the late Emperor had already stood up.

The late emperor waved his hand and said to the eunuchs and palace maids behind the empress dowager, "This Emperor shall pardon you of your crimes. Return to your respective palaces, and don't act rashly."

"Thank you, your majesty." Those palace maids and eunuchs thought that they would definitely be massacred this time, but they did not expect that the Concubine Qin would actually go beg the Empress Dowager for them, and even send a message to the late emperor, saying that as long as the palace maids and eunuchs were released, she could send someone to open the gate and allow the late emperor to enter.

Qin Luofei silently knelt on the ground. Her waist was becoming more and more obvious, and very soon, she would be in labor.

The late emperor's gaze passed through the empress dowager and landed on Qin Luofei. His eyes gradually grew cold as he smiled. "I thought you'd already left the palace. Who would've thought I'd still be able to see Concubine Qin."

"Your Majesty is right. Unfortunately, although the world is big, there is no place for Luo Fei to live. All you can do is shamelessly continue to stay in the palace." Qin Luofei raised her eyes, looking at the emperor.

Emperor Xian raised his hand and said coldly, "Stand up! Don't hurt your son, go back to the palace! I'll send an imperial physician to treat you. "

"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. It's just that before chenqie's marriage, I would like to ask the Empress to accompany me there. I hope that Your Majesty will agree." Qin Luofei was calm and unperturbed. She did not change her appearance because of the late emperor's pardon.

Emperor Xian pondered for a moment, then said, "I give my permission."

"Thank you, your majesty." Qin Luofei stood up, and was supported back to the palace by the maid s beside her.

When Emperor Yun left the Imperial Palace, Qin Luofei had already ordered people to move all her belongings back to the original palace.

"Miss, how will you live from now on?" Xi Ling said in a sorrowful voice.

"Live as before. Daihua, you don't have to worry about me, I'll be fine. " Qin Luofei brought a few palace maids with her as she strolled around the palace.

The late emperor's concubine had not yet moved back. There were only two concubines in the past in the Emperor Yun, and this time, the Emperor Yun had left with the Honorable Zhang. The palace was left with only palace maids and eunuchs, which made it seem a lot colder.

After returning to the palace, Qin Luofei ordered her people to close the gates, and take care of all the food in the palace. Fortunately, they had prepared food, so there was no need to worry.

The next day, Emperor Xian ascended the throne of the Emperor once again, and the symbol was still the Emperor Ming.

Emperor Ming forgave the world, and did not pursue the rebellion of the other ministers.

Although the Ling Wang was extremely close to the Emperor Yun, the Emperor Ming stayed at his residence the entire time.

Her Majesty was under house arrest and could not leave the palace.

Empress Dowager disliked the noise inside the palace and moved out to live.

Only now did people remember Du Qingcheng. After he ascended to the throne of the Emperor Yun, he was forgotten by the people, and he was still alive, dying in the cold palace.

And there was also that Orchid Beauty who was beaten into the cold palace. Her elder brother followed the Emperor and was killed, so the Emperor felt very guilty.

The late emperor's concubine s, Imperial Consort Leng s, Qin Luoyu, Luo Ziyan and his Honorable Zhang s were brought back to the palace from the Ling Mansion's residence.

In the past, there were many concubine s in the palace, but now only a few remained.

However, Qin Luofei had no other intentions. She was about to have a baby.

Many people in the palace speculated that the emperor would grant her death. They didn't expect that the Emperor Ming didn't bestow her death nor summon her to his side, merely allowing her to stay in the palace.

A few carriages stopped at the western gate. A maid supported several beautiful women, one of whom was holding a child in her arms.

"I really didn't expect that we would return to the palace." Honorable Zhang reached out his hand to touch the palace wall, unable to hide the excitement in his eyes.

Consort Shu, who was carrying the baby, looked at her lazily and turned her head away.

The Imperial Consort Leng was supported here by the two palace maids, and her face carried a joyous expression. She was actually pregnant. She had only seen the Emperor for a month, yet she already had one. This was truly a double blessing.

As and Imperial Consort Leng were unsuitable to sleep together, they became favored again, and became the emperor's beloved women, full of joy and bliss.

Because Luo Ziyan had been sick for a long time, her complexion had been damaged, but after two days of love, the emperor had gradually started to look at her less and less.

She truly liked the Emperor Ming. As long as the emperor was fine, she wouldn't ask for anything else.

Honorable Zhang still could not make the Emperor Ming happy, she had already seen it through, he could only depend on the Consort Shu, and live a good life.

"I wonder how our Concubine Qin is doing?" The Honorable Zhang was one of those people who would stir up trouble for no reason.

Concubine Qin only played with her own clothes, as if she did not hear Honorable Zhang's words. No matter what, Concubine Qin was still her sister. She couldn't act against her in broad daylight, otherwise others would think too highly of her.

Luo Ziyan had always been on good terms with Qin Luofei, so she naturally wouldn't say a word. Consort Shu did not like the people of Imperial Consort Leng and Honorable Zhang, so she was too lazy to talk about it.

Imperial Consort Leng had always been a person who took action too often, she would not be as shrewd as Honorable Zhang. After all, after Honorable Zhang had spoken for so long and seen that no one paid attention to her, she also felt that her face wasn't good, and shut her mouth.

"Honored guests, let's hurry up and enter the palace! Don't let the emperor get anxious. " The young eunuch who served the emperor before was already dead, and now the Ministry of Internal Affairs was making a small circle to serve the emperor.

The Consort Shu said to the Imperial Consort Leng: "Let's enter the palace! If there's anything you want to say, go into the palace. "

The Imperial Consort Leng nodded.

Emperor Ming set up his study in the Emperor Yun's royal study. Looking at the back hall, he was somewhat annoyed, as he could never forget, Emperor Yun and Concubine Qin went in together.

"Men, redecorate this palace for me. I want all traces of the past to be wiped clean." Emperor Ming's eyes were filled with coldness.

The eunuch at his side hurriedly said, "Yes, Your Majesty."

Seeing that everyone had left, Emperor Ming's face calmed down.

Seeing the throne he had lost and regained, he actually didn't feel anything.

Emperor Yun reached out his hand to caress the dragon pattern on it, a cold smile surfacing from his lips.

The Imperial Consort Leng was still living in her original palace. The Emperor had already sent people to clean up the place before sending over ten palace maids and eunuchs to serve the Imperial Consort Leng.

Imperial Consort Leng supported the palace maid into the courtyard. The flowers and plants in the courtyard were much more exuberant than before, and the green peony bestowed by the emperor were all of excellent quality. The flowers were the size of bowls, with layers upon layers on the ground.

"Empress, I heard that only our palace has these flowers, the other emperors do not have them." The maid beside her said joyously when he saw the happiness on his face.

Imperial Consort Leng caressed the golden fingers on her hand, the bits of gems embedded into the golden patterns, it was a rich and luxurious item that only the previous empress could wear.

Imperial Consort Leng held the palace maid's hand and looked around the courtyard excitedly. The scenery in the courtyard was even more beautiful than before.

"Then where is the Concubine Qin now?"

She had thought that the Emperor would kill her, but he actually still kept her. He even had a title. He really doted on her. I heard that she had a child in her arms, too.

When the maid heard the Imperial Consort Leng's question, he quickly said, "The Empress is asking about the Concubine Qin. She came here to laugh, so she obediently moved back to her previous palace from the Emperor's imperial study. I heard that she hasn't come out from hiding in the courtyard recently. There is a woman serving two generations of kings there.

Imperial Consort Leng only felt that it was time to return her anger. She placed her jade hands on her temples and stroked her hair as she said: "She already has a few palace maids. Go and ask Ministry of Internal Affairs not to add people to her palace, do you understand?"

"Yes, Niangniang. If this servant is her, then why do you still have the nerve to add her? You should always hide in the courtyard and not come out." maid tried to please him.

Imperial Consort Leng sneered twice: "You can't become her, you can have a tenth of her, so you don't need to be my servant."

The palace maid felt embarrassed after being scolded by the Imperial Consort Leng, but he quickly tried to curry favor with him. "The Empress has taught the Empress a lesson, and this servant is loyal only to the Empress."

Imperial Consort Leng pursed her lips and laughed: "Go give her the decree, tell her that I want to meet her and ask her to come pay respects for me."

"Yes, Empress." maid withdrew.

Imperial Consort Leng secretly had a plan in her heart. This time, she must make the child in her womb come and go. Presumably, the Emperor won't blame her too much.

"Empress, there is cold air in the courtyard that is detrimental to the fetus. The Empress should still enter the palace." Another maid held Imperial Consort Leng up.

The Imperial Consort Leng nodded and then suddenly thought of something. She laughed coldly, "I heard that she begged the empress dowager to save you all. Is there such a thing?"

maid was slightly startled, then quickly reported respectfully: "We servants only know that Imperial Concubine is our master, we can't accept her kindness."
