Chapter 336: Disaster Relief
Chapter 336: Disaster Relief
Liu Yiyi never expected Qin Liuse to be so bold, because of her she just couldn't believe it. Who would want to have the favor of Emperor Yongjia shared with others?
Liu Yiyi took a breath, and with a look of sadness and tears on her face, she began to play the victim, "Sister is favored by the emperor, so naturally she doesn't care about these things, but as an elder in the palace, sister should think about us younger sisters with lower positions."
"If the emperor always favors newcomers, then what chance do we old people have? Sister, don't just think about your own virtue. You should also consider the feelings of us younger sisters."
Listen to what is said, how touching and tragic.
Liu Yiyi was almost in tears. She had just been instigating Qin Liuse and provoking her to be the bad guy, but when she saw that this trick didn't work, she turned around and imposed her own pain on her.
In fact, whether a concubine is favored or not depends entirely on her ability. What does it have to do with Qin Liuse who Emperor Yongjia favors or not?
She couldn't hold Emperor Yongjia hostage and order him to go to someone's room to do something.
Liu Yiyi also used the same trick she used in front of men, pretending to be pitiful and miserable, on Qin Liuse.
According to Qin Liuse's personality, he actually didn't bother to care about these things, but Liu Yiyi had too many past events, and he had set traps for her in the past. When Qin Liuse thought of those little grudges, he couldn't help but feel a little funny in his heart. If he didn't take the opportunity to give her a taste of his own medicine, he would be sorry for her for bringing it upon herself.
Qin Liuse straightened her face and said, "Sister, what you said is wrong. In this palace, there were beauty pageants every year in the first few years before the emperor ascended the throne. Even after these three years, there were beauty pageants every two years. Fresh flowers were sent in every year. How can we control these... so-called newcomers?"
"Instead of thinking so much, it is more important to think about how to please the emperor and how to keep his heart."
"The Emperor is not a vulgar person who only looks at age. Just look at the concubines in the harem. Among the four concubines now and the second-rank concubines below, none of them are young."
"They all followed the emperor from the palace. Even if there are newcomers, they can't take over the positions of the old people in the palace."
Qin Liuse's words pushed the responsibility back onto Liu Yiyi herself.
Qin Liuse could see clearly, so he naturally would not be pushed around by Liu Yiyi.
If they were really fooled by her, Qin Liuse would become enemies with everyone younger than them, which would be totally unnecessary.
"Sister, this..."
Qin Liuse's words were flawless. He didn't flatter the older ones, nor did he look down on the younger ones, so Liu Yiyi couldn't find any loopholes.
Hearing Qin Liuse say this, Liu Yiyi's aura weakened a little.
She also didn't expect that the Qin Liuse, who used to be so easy to talk to, would be so difficult to talk to now.
But returning without any gain was not what Liu Yiyi had planned.
When she met Qin Liuse today, she said these words in order to flatter Qin Liuse. Unexpectedly, not only did she fail to do so, but Qin Liuse outwitted her and ended up flattering herself.
Liu Yiyi was not discouraged. She put on a face that looked like she was laughing at a joke and said to Qin Liuse, "I just heard someone say that when the emperor went hunting in autumn last year, the daughter of the owner of the hunting ground wanted to follow the emperor into the palace."
"I don't know why, but she didn't come back later. I thought, maybe there were too many men going on the autumn hunt, and the emperor was in a hurry, so he didn't succeed. Otherwise, we would have one more sister in the palace."
Liu Yiyi continued, "We went back to visit the snow disaster victims. We went to so many places and spent so many days there. The emperor didn't bring any maids with him. Who knows, he might bring one back this time. I heard that Jin is a land of beauties."
Qin Liuse smoothed her cloak, stood up, and said calmly, "I know what you said. But the daughter of the owner of that field was a little girl, and she was wishful thinking. The emperor had no intention of bringing her into the palace. But you don't have to worry, sister, the emperor naturally has his own plans."
Liu Yiyi's words were hit back by Qin Liuse again.
She didn't expect that Qin Liuse also knew about this kind of thing, because she thought that the emperor would definitely not tell her about this kind of thing, but she didn't expect that Qin Liuse knew it better than her.
For a moment, Liu Yiyi began to act pitiful again. She lowered her head, pouted her lips, and acted very pitiful. "But if there are new people coming in, the emperor will ignore us."
Look at how pitiful she is. I feel sorry for her even more.
The word "we" also included Qin Liuse.
But Qin Liuse was too lazy to get on the same boat with her. Seeing her like this, he was really annoying, so he said coldly, "What's the point of you telling me this? The one who sleeps with you is the emperor, not me. If you have any opinions, you can ask the emperor yourself when he comes back tomorrow."
Qin Liuse said bluntly, "I only take care of the harem for the emperor, but I don't care about what happens in his room. You don't have to come to me for these things."
Liu Yiyi didn't expect Qin Liuse to suddenly become so fierce, and she immediately became scared.
In fact, Qin Liuse was not fierce, but his face was a little cold, and his tone of voice was firmer and colder. But for someone like Liu Yiyi who was used to pretending to be weak and pitiful, Qin Liuse's tone was fierce.
I just regret that Emperor Yongjia was not present, otherwise he could have seen what kind of person Qin Liuse is!
Liu Yiyi was unhappy because her wish was not fulfilled, but she didn't dare to look at Qin Liuse, let alone get angry with her.
Because of things like sowing discord, she only dared to do it secretly because of her low position. If she were asked to fight Qin Liuse head-on, she would never dare to do so.
So for a moment, hearing Qin Liuse being so firm, he sniffed, as if he had been bullied.
"My sister is not good at talking, so please don't bother with her. I just hope that this time the emperor comes back without any beautiful women, so that my life and yours can be better."
Qin Liuse glanced at her without wasting any more words, nor did he want to pay any attention to her.
Seeing that she didn't accept the challenge, Liu Yiyi knew that her plan for today had failed. She had no choice but to leave in disarray.
She only secretly hated that it would be better for Emperor Yongjia to bring back a woman who was more youthful and beautiful than her, Qin Liuse, and pamper her to the sky, so that the Imperial Concubine would know what it felt like to be out of favor.

Ever since they returned to the capital from their villa on the outskirts of the capital, it seemed as if there was a hole in the sky and it snowed every day.
The situation here in Beijing is relatively okay. It has been snowing for about half a month and there are fewer snowflakes.
But it was said that the snowflakes were getting bigger and bigger in one place all around, so Emperor Yongjia did not return from his disaster relief inspection until almost mid-December.
