Shui Ruo was the woman that the crown prince had taken a fancy to. Although she didn't have any influence, she couldn't lose decorum with her own son. As for Shangguan Yun, she was the woman the Crown Prince needed. If she didn't have any other choice, she didn't want the Crown Prince to marry another woman.

It was easy for the Crown Prince to be married again, but it would be hard for the Shangguan family to not hate the Crown Prince.

The Shangguan family was originally a big family. Now that they had such a large army, even the emperor had to be wary of them. The crown prince was doing well in the imperial court, and there was no lack of help from the Shangguan family. Therefore, Shangguan Yun also could not be offended.

This was precisely the reason why she sent Ling'er to the crown prince's residence. Ling'er had been by her side since childhood, and was very smart. She should know to assist the crown prince's consort.

As she thought about it, a trace of gentleness appeared on the empress's face. Looking at Shui Ruo and Shangguan Yun, he said, "Alright, you guys hurry up and prepare, don't waste your time here."

"How can it be a waste of time? It is a good thing for my daughter-in-law to be able to accompany you here. " Shangguan Yun said obediently.

Hearing this, the empress's smile became even friendlier. "Forget it, you're the only one who knows how to say it. But it's better to hurry and prepare for it. I have Ling'er to accompany me."

Ling'er? When Shangguan Yun mentioned Ling'er, her expression turned ugly. When Ling'er, who had been hiding in the corner, heard the empress's words, she immediately straightened her back and looked at Shangguan Yun a little proudly. "That's right, it's good that the empress has a servant by her side. Elder sister, you don't have to worry."

"Then, I'll have to trouble Ling'er to keep the empress company." Shangguan Yun didn't mean what she said. When she said it, she looked at Shui Long who seemed to have nothing to do with her and said: "Let's go."

Shui Long looked at Shangguan Yun who was obviously angry at the moment, but didn't say anything to her. She just obediently followed behind. In the end, the palace was not a good place to be, and she was unfamiliar with the place. If she was not with the Crown Princess, there might be some danger.

The Crown Princess was worried about the Crown Prince, so she wouldn't do anything to him. While he was thinking, Shui Ruo caught up to Shangguan Yun.

After the two of them left, the Queen's smile finally disappeared. He then viciously slapped Ling'er.

Ah!" "Empress." Ling'er was knocked to the ground and cried out in alarm, not knowing what she had done wrong.

"Don't call me this!" The empress's voice was cold.

"Empress, this servant, this servant, what did I do wrong?" Ling'er looked at the empress with an aggrieved expression.

What did he do wrong? Hearing Ling'er's words, the empress really wanted to laugh. She had originally thought that Ling Er was smart and wouldn't do anything wrong. But looking at Shangguan Yun's expression, it didn't seem like such a thing had happened.

"I asked you to come to the Crown Prince's Palace, do you really think that you are going to fight for a favor?"

The empress's voice was cold.

"Servant."

"Shut up!" The Queen interrupted Ling'er and continued, "Shui Long is the woman that the Crown Prince has taken a fancy to. I shall bear with it, but Shangguan Yun is a woman that the Crown Prince must have. But you, do you really think that I am letting you go to the crown prince's mansion to enjoy the bliss and then stirring up the miasma? "

the Queen asked.

Hearing this, Ling'er didn't dare to reply.

"What a useless thing!" In a while, I will send a palace maid to wait on you. From now on, your every move must be carefully thought through. One had to know that Shangguan Yun was the future empress, and that Shui Ruo was just a plaything to the crown prince. If you do not know your own position, then I will let other women replace you. "

The empress's attitude was cold, causing Ling'er to tremble. Looking at the empress, and thinking back to how the crown prince had treated her gently before, he closed his eyes.

"Yes, Empress. This servant will definitely not disappoint the Empress. "

In the future, when the crown prince ascends to the throne, you'll also become an imperial concubine. Although I can't help you right now, once the crown prince becomes the emperor, I'll be the empress dowager. At that time, if you give birth to a son, I'll definitely help you look after your child.

The empress's voice became gentle.

To give a sweet jujube with a slap was her usual style. However, Ling'er really did take advantage of this situation.

The current benefits were nothing at all. If the empress really could help her, then wouldn't her child become the empress dowager in the future if he were to ascend the dragon throne?

As she thought about it, Ling'er couldn't help but look forward to it. When she looked at the empress again, Ling'er's gaze turned sincere. "Empress, this servant will obediently listen to your words. Whatever you want this servant to do, this servant will go and do it."

"Un, that's more like it." The empress looked at Ling'er with satisfaction and took out a white porcelain bottle from her sleeve.

"This is?" Ling'er didn't understand.

"This is something that allows you to bear the flesh and blood of the crown prince. As long as you let the crown prince eat it, the crown prince will soon be yours." But this is not for you. " The empress's words had come and gone too quickly, causing Ling'er's heart, who was still excited, to drop to a freezing point.

"Right now, the one who needs children the most is not you, but the Crown Princess."

"Yes, Empress." Ling'er closed her eyes, suppressing the unwillingness in her heart as she spoke.

"Don't be sad, I'm doing this for your own good. I'm not sure about Shangguan Yun's position in Shangguan family, but if Shangguan Yun gave birth to the child belonging to the crown prince, the Shangguan family would definitely give their full support to the crown prince. For the greater good, you have to endure. "

The empress noticed Ling'er's unwillingness and bewitched her.

Ling'er was a smart girl. Upon hearing the empress's words, she nodded and said, "Yes, this servant understands."

"Well, then, put it away. I am a little tired, help me hammer your legs. "

As she spoke, the Queen returned to her chair and stretched out her legs, waiting for Ling'er.

Ling'er obediently walked forward and massaged the empress's legs.

In reality, the empress wasn't really tired, she was just trying to let Ling'er know who she was.

Seeing the empress close her eyes in such a state of enjoyment, Ling'er felt hatred for the empress for the first time.

She was the one who gave her hope, but now, she could see the reality clearly. She had been the vassal of the empress's plan for so many years, leading the way for her marriage in the end. She clearly knew that her highness was outstanding. As long as she was a girl, she would fall in love with her. However, she still cruelly asked her to pave the way for the Crown Princess.

As she thought about it, Ling'er's eyes reddened.

As for the empress, when Ling'er wasn't paying attention to her, her gaze landed on Ling'er's face.

That half-opened eye revealed endless ridicule.

Flying up a branch to become a phoenix? If this matter was simple, then the phoenix would not be called a divine bird. How could anyone do the position of Empress?

The Crown Prince was the future emperor, the women beside him must be outstanding. Although Ling'er was born quite well, she lacked the ability to be the Crown Prince's concubine.

It was just a chess piece. If she was a person who understood, then perhaps there would be a perfect conclusion. If she didn't understand, then she could only send it to the King of Hell. Even if she had served her for so many years, it would still be the same.

The empress was a cold woman, or perhaps it was because she was used to the cold warmth of the human world.

No matter if she was gentle or happy, the empress always had her own way of thinking.

She had never been touched by the loyal servants by her side, because that was a must. They were loyal, so she gave them a place to stay. If they were not loyal, they would die sooner or later.

In other words, to the Queen, all of this was just an equal exchange.

And to her, Ling'er was the same.

Within the empress dowager's palace, it was so quiet that even a pin drop could be heard. Ling'er had been silently thumping the empress's legs, even though her pride was assaulting her rationality.

On the other side, Shangguan Yun and Shui Long had been wandering around outside the palace ever since they had left.

After wandering around for about half an hour, Shangguan Yun didn't see anyone taking her to do anything.

"What does the Crown Princess have to say to me?" Shui smiled leisurely as he looked at Shangguan Yun.

Hearing this, Shangguan Yun felt a little awkward, she turned around and said to Shui Ruo: "Um, I, I still have some matters to attend to, you can go by yourself first. Remember, go to Zhao Yang Hall and say that the empress ordered you to get something for the banquet. "

The Crown Princess looked a bit worried. Shui You looked at her in such a manner and nodded his head: "Well then, Crown Princess, I will go first. If you're not feeling well, please call for an imperial physician. "

"Alright, I understand." Shangguan Yun forced a smile. When the water saw this, it left.

When Shui Ruo slowly walked away, the smile on Shangguan Yun's face disappeared and was replaced with seriousness.

"Ye Huangze!" Get the hell out here! "

Shangguan Yun's voice was low, but her anger was obvious. As the woman's voice faded, a man slowly walked out from the only corner of the room. Her lovely face brimmed with a brilliant smile.

"Sister Yun."

Shangguan Yun's voice was very soft and gentle.

Hearing this, Shangguan Yun's face couldn't help turning red, but she immediately remembered what she had to do. She looked at Ye Huangze in dissatisfaction and said, "Do you know that this is the palace?"

"I know. I've lived here since I was young, so I know this better than anyone." The Night Emperor's smile was harmless.

"I knew you would follow me!" Shangguan Yun was almost angered to death by Ye Huangze's reply. God knows how frightened she was when she came out of the queen's quarters and found him.

In order to make the water bored for a long time, she suppressed her worry and wandered around for an hour before she finally took the water away. To prevent her from noticing, and even feigning discomfort, damn it!

"Don't you know I'm going to have a party? You followed behind me, and now you still expect me to give such a good job to that woman. It's all your fault! " Shangguan Yun looked at Ye Huangze in grievance.

When Ye Huangze heard this, his eyes sparkled as he said, "Didn't Sister Yun want me to help you? This is what I'm doing for you. "

"Help me? Are you really not trying to harm me? " Shangguan Yun had a look of despise on her face.

"How could it have hurt you? Sister Yun has nothing to do with the feast anymore. But if something unexpected happens during the banquet on New Year's Eve, what do you think will happen? "

"The queen will blame everything on that woman!"

Shangguan Yun was not a fool. After being in the Shangguan Family for so many years and the Crown Prince's Palace for so many years, she had long seen through the struggles between women. The reason why she was helpless before was because her beloved man fell in love with Shui Ruo. It made her feel despair.

Currently, she had already arranged her heart, so naturally, there was nothing that could disrupt her thoughts.

"You couldn't have done something funny in the office, right?" Shangguan Yun looked at Ye Huangze and asked curiously.

When Ye Huangze heard this, he gave a mysterious smile and said, "A secret."

"Humph!" Shangguan Yun gave a cold snort. But unexpectedly, Ye Huangze suddenly embraced her.

"What are you doing!?" This is the Imperial Palace! " Shangguan Yun's face reddened. She wanted to push Ye Huangze away, but no matter what, she couldn't do it. Moreover, at this time, the man had already pushed her down to the ground.

"That's what I always want to do when I face Sister Yun. Regardless of whether it's the Imperial Palace or what place it is, I just want Big Sister Yun to be with me. " As he spoke, his tone was filled with grievance.

He was originally cute, but now he looked like he was acting coquettishly.

Shangguan Yun was pressed down on the ground by him, her eyes stared straight at the sky, not daring to look at the Night King Ze. This was because she was afraid that once she saw it, she wouldn't be able to stop herself from going on with him.

She could not refuse this man's love for her. After all, other than him, there was probably no other man that liked her so much.

"Ha!" I'm such a selfish person. " Shangguan Yun mocked herself.

"Yeah, big sister Yun is so selfish that it makes people hate her." Emperor Ye Ze got up from the woman's body and looked at Shangguan Yun who had a mocking expression on her face. He smiled helplessly and said, "Seeing Sister Yun like this, how could I continue to work like this?"

"You really like me?" Shangguan Yun looked at Ye Huangze with uncertainty.

"If I don't like you, why would I do so much?"
