Chapter 165 Promotion
Chapter 165 Promotion
"Your Majesty, Concubine Yu, His Majesty didn't let you in, you can't force your way in!"
Zhang Deli quickly chased after him, but saw Yu Sheyue was stopped in front of the palace gate and stopped.
Yu Sheyue slowly raised her hand, handed the food box to a eunuch, and straightened her clothes.
"Why is Eunuch Zhang so anxious? I know my limits and cannot force my way in!" Yu Sheyue didn't even look at Zhang Deli.
"What are you talking about, Concubine Yu? How can I not be anxious?" Zhang Deli lowered his eyes and smiled embarrassedly.
Yu Sheyue glanced at Zhang Deli with an arrogant look, then turned around and shouted towards the hall.
"May your majesty be well! I have come to offer you this soup."
"Empress Yu, you are not allowed to make loud noises in Zhaozheng Hall!" Zhang Deli failed to stop them again, and sighed, feeling a little discouraged.
He can't deal with this arrogant Concubine Yu, but His Majesty may not be angry.
Let it be, Concubine Yu will have to wish her the best. Zhang Deli pretended to be compassionate in his heart, but in fact he was gloating over her misfortune.
Qin Zhi raised his eyes and looked outside the hall, then patted Bai Liangyu's face, who had his chin resting on his knees.
"Put on your cloak. It's cold outside. Come with me and take a look."
"How disgraceful it is to make so much noise." Qin Zhi's voice was not harsh.
"His Majesty!"
When Yu Sheyue saw Qin Zhi coming out, a look of joy flashed in her eyes. She flew in front of Qin Zhi and looked at him with pitiful eyes.
"Your Majesty, Zhang Deli falsely conveyed your Majesty's order and wanted to send me back. I came here at dawn. Normally, your Majesty would have finished his work by this time. How could he turn me away?"
She raised her chin with the corners of her lips slightly raised.
Yu Sheyue glanced briefly at Bai Liangyu, who was following Qin Zhi closely with a respectful and submissive attitude, and then turned her eyes away.
Qin Zhi grabbed her chin directly and rubbed Yu Sheyue's little face with the five fingers of one hand.
Yu Sheyue did not struggle, and continued in a muffled voice:
"So I am late? Your Majesty, you already have a beauty by your side, so you don't need my soup."
After saying that, she pouted her clear red lips, without moving a muscle, and put all the weight of her head on Qin Zhi's hands.
"Your concubine greets Concubine Yu." Bai Liangyu bowed with lowered eyebrows.
Yu Sheyue just stared at Qin Zhi and didn't look at Bai Liangyu.
"I don't deserve it. Lady Shu, you are so favored by His Majesty. I'm afraid it will soon become me who pays respects to Lady Shu. Your Majesty, don't you think so?"
"Are you bored in Hanzhang Palace, so you come here to ask for a title for Shupin?" Qin Zhi let go of Yu Sheyue's face, narrowed his eyes and smiled.
Yu Sheyue was stunned on the spot. She raised her voice, her eyes full of disbelief, and asked loudly:
"When did Your Majesty promote Lady Shu? How come I have never heard of it?"
Yu Sheyue had a bad feeling in her heart, which was confirmed by His Majesty the next moment.
"Just now." Qin Zhi continued with a smile.
"Your Majesty, are you doing this on purpose?" Yu Sheyue stamped her feet lightly, and the hem of her skirt rippled like water.
"What do you think?" Qin Zhi had a faint smile on his lips.
Yu Sheyue is sure that His Majesty did it on purpose. Is Bai Liangyu now on an equal footing with her?
It’s not that she was angry. In order to tease her, His Majesty directly mentioned Bai Liangyu to the position of concubine... Well, she was still annoyed, very annoyed.
But her grandmother had taught her that the rise and fall of a woman's status in the harem meant nothing and was entirely dependent on the emperor's thoughts.
Your Majesty can point to any woman in the harem and make her a royal concubine overnight, and no one will say anything. He can also send someone to hell at will.
The significance of positions, except for that of queen, is actually not that great, so you don't need to take it too seriously.
If you only focus on promotion or demotion, you will fall into the lower class. The key is how to capture the heart of His Majesty.
Seeing that Bai Liangyu was promoted to the position of concubine in just one word from His Majesty, and instantly became equal to her, a county lady from the Grand Princess's Mansion, Yu Sheyue suddenly had a more intuitive understanding of her grandmother's words.
A hint of surprise flashed in Bai Liangyu's eyes. She bowed gracefully to express her gratitude, her butterfly-like eyelashes trembling slightly with excitement.
"I bow to thank Your Majesty for your great grace. Long live Your Majesty."
Yu Sheyue snorted softly.
"Are you so anxious to confirm His Majesty's promotion? His Majesty's words are golden, are you sure you won't deny them? Also, after thanking His Majesty, doesn't Concubine Shu thank me?"
After saying that, Yu Sheyue didn't wait for Bai Liangyu's response. She stepped forward, took Qin Zhi's hands with both hands, and shook them gently.
"Stand up. Since Concubine Yu has said so, don't offend her. Just thank her."
"Thank you very much, Madam Yupin. I will find a good day to come and thank you handsomely. I also hope that Madam Yupin will not turn me away again."
Yu Sheyue ignored her and Bai Liangyu was not embarrassed.
"Your Majesty, please feel me. I came here in the biting cold wind to see you. When I arrived at Zhaozheng Palace, you asked Zhang Deli to come just to take away the red dates, barley and white fungus soup I brought with me. Not only that, you also turned me away. My hands are cold and my heart is chilled. Won't you warm me up?"
Yu Sheyue had a shy face but spoke very boldly.
"Didn't you just turn the tables and accuse Zhang Deli of falsely passing on the divine message? How did you reveal the truth while you were talking?"
"Your Majesty, can you give me some way out?"
Qin Zhi raised the corners of his lips slightly, turned around and went back to Zhaozheng Hall.
"Your Majesty!" Yu Sheyue felt really wronged this time.
"Why are you still standing there in the wind? Didn't you say it was cold? Why don't you go into the hall?"
Hearing Qin Zhi's voice, Yu Sheyue immediately forgot her grievances, bypassed Bai Liangyu and rushed in excitedly.
"Yu'er, go back first. I will visit you another day."
