Chapter 963

Concubine Yuan entered the palace earlier than Concubine Li, and she was a few years older. Although she was a sister, Concubine Li did not have a deep memory of her past in the Liu Mansion. In addition, Concubine Yuan entered the palace earlier, so she did not have much impression of this sister.

However, Concubine Li couldn't remember that Concubine Yuan had many things to recall, including Concubine Li likes to listen to operas. She said to Concubine Li: "I still remember that when I entered the palace, I held a banquet at home and invited a opera troupe. After the last play was finished, the opera troupe was about to leave, but you cried and didn't want to let others go. You wanted to listen to it for a few more days, and I was punished by my father. Later, the stage was also set up in the palace, and I could see that you were happy, but how could the plays in the palace be heard by us? Not to mention the days of more than 20 years. Forget it, let alone these days, the third gift my sister said was a small opera troupe. I told Your Highness the day before yesterday, and Your Highness specially found a opera troupe from the south to send it to the palace. Isn't there a small stage in Changning Palace? My sister picked it up for the past few days and listened to it in her own palace!"

Concubine Li really likes to listen to operas. She must remember the only few times she hired a opera troupe when she was a child. She couldn't listen enough. Today, the gifts from the nobleman of Yen were really delivered to her heart. Not only did she have money, but she also listened to operas. At the moment, she didn't care about the opera troupe chosen by the Eighth Prince, so she quickly asked the servant to arrange it. At the same time, she also invited Yuan Guiren again: "I'm going to hold a small banquet in the palace the next day, and my sister must come."

Yuan Guiren naturally responded, sat for a while, and saw that the stage had been set up, so he said goodbye. Concubine Li invited her to listen together, but she used the excuse to leave and said she didn't stay. But before leaving, she reminded Concubine Li: "Sister, why not invite more sisters in the palace. The banquet will be the next day, and these two days will be lively in advance. Of course, don't forget to invite the Queen. After all, Changning Palace is so close to Jingci Palace, and you can definitely hear the Queen's place where you are singing. It's not good not to invite it."

Concubine Li also thought it was the reason, so she sent a few palace servants to invite other concubines, and herself to invite the queen.

The queen had no intention of interfering with Concubine Li's affairs, but after another thought, she felt that Concubine Li was restored by the emperor's proposal, and that the emperor had arranged for the Changning Palace to move in. Although she had analyzed that the emperor was just for the sake of noble Qiyuan, she was the queen and she had to stand on the side of the emperor no matter what. Since the emperor wanted to act, she would sing with him! So she agreed to the invitation and told Concubine Li to take one step first, and she would go there later.

But when he returned to the noble Yuan who was the Cunshan Palace, the maid Yuexiu asked her: "Master is so good to treat Concubine Li. Even for the Eighth Prince, he would not even arrange the opera troupe. It's too thoughtful. I am not unwilling to see your sisters get along, but I am just afraid that the master will feel wronged."

When the nobleman Yuan heard this, he smiled sinisterly, "Don't you feel wronged, don't she want to be lively, then I will help her. I have to let her understand that even if she lives in Changning Palace and has a concubine, she will not be able to do whatever she wants in the harem. What's more, the old lady of the queen has to understand that some people have climbed up, but they are not in the same way as her."

Yuexiu naturally didn't understand what Yuan Guiren meant, but after noon that day, the queen who was sitting under the stage of Changning Platform listened to the opera understood. Since the queen sat down, the opera on the stage turned up new, and she actually sang a play where a concubine fought against the mistress. It was said that a wealthy family mistress was not favored, and the master preferred the concubine and praised it higher than the sky. The mistress was unwilling to give up and tried every means to persecute the concubine, but in the end she was still unable to do anything to get in power, which made the master even more annoyed.

There were many people coming to other shows, and the concubines in the harem were bored every day. Perhaps Concubine Li’s small palace banquet could not arouse their interest, but the audience was heard to make them feel excited. So when they invited her here, many of the palace masters came in sedan chairs.

At this moment, everyone was embarrassed to sing this opera. Except for the foolish concubine Li, who was still listening with relish, everyone else secretly looked at the queen. But seeing that the queen looked very bad, she almost exuded anger in her eyes when she stared at the actor on the stage. Her hands, which were originally easily placed on the chair, were tightly held tightly. Even the maid Fang Yi, who was standing behind her, had sunk down and even glared at the end of Li Fei.

Isn’t the mistress and the concubine in the palace the queen and the concubines? Is this Concubine Li crazy?

A little palace maid quietly reminded her master: "Let's go back, so that the queen will get angry for a while, and you will be unlucky."

In a word, it reminds many people that in front of the queen, all of them are concubines, and no matter what position they are, they are not as high as the queen. If you continue to sit here, it means that you are supporting Concubine Li, and supporting Concubine Li is now obviously going to offend the queen.

Although a concubine Li was suddenly regained the throne and moved to Changning Palace, people did not think that when the relationship between the emperor and Concubine Yun had improved significantly, Concubine Li's favor could be inserted. None of them were stupid, and they all understood that this was simply a fight that the emperor deliberately provoked. But no matter who fought with whom, it had nothing to do with them. They stayed in the harem honestly, but there was no need to get into this muddy water.

So someone stood up and quietly told the palace servants in Changning Palace that they found an excuse and went back. After this one left, the second one followed. After a while, more than half of the people left the small theater. At this time, Concubine Li was unaware of this and was still addicted to the play.

But Zuo'er, the maid standing behind her, became alert. She didn't pay much attention to listening to the opera. After all, as a servant, she had to pay attention to the needs of the master at any time and anywhere. She could not ignore the master if she was obsessed with watching the opera. That was a big mistake. So until now she has not figured out what was singing in the opera.

But when she saw these concubines leaving one by one, she felt a little panicked and felt something was wrong. She went out to inquire and asked about the maid from another palace who was familiar with her and secretly told her about the opera. Zuo'er became panicked.

When she returned, she listened carefully to the play behind her. The more she listened, the more she became more frightened. The more she listened, the colder she felt. Until the queen snorted and got up and left, she realized that something was going to happen. So she quickly pulled Li Fei's sleeve and tried to call Li Fei back to her senses from the play.

Unfortunately, Concubine Li was too immersed in the play and didn't understand what Zuo'er meant at all. She didn't even turn her head and just said, "Don't disturb me from watching the play."

Zuo'er had no choice and rushed out to send the queen, but heard the queen say, "When you go back and tell your master that if you want to live in this Changning Palace safely, you should know what your identity is, and don't forget your original name."

Zuo'er was so scared that she knelt on the ground and kowtowed constantly. She was sitting on the ground limply until the queen left. But an idea suddenly popped up in her mind - "Oh no, I've been fooled by Concubine Yuan!"

But no matter who arranged the troupe and who asked the play to sing the play, she only knew that it was Li Fei who invited her, and the content of the play made her very unhappy. Fang Yi knew what the queen was angry about, and she was also angry, but she felt that it was not something that people like Li Fei could do deliberately. She couldn't help but remind her: "Immortal Yi, is there something wrong with it?"

The queen snorted coldly, "It's strange if you don't. Haven't you heard that this afternoon, Yuan Guiren went to Changning Palace. Concubine Li has had few contacts with people for so many years, and she has just left Jingsi Palace. Where did she get the ability to invite the opera troupe from outside? But the day before yesterday, the palace servants from the other end of Cunshan Palace came to ask for instructions from this palace. It was Yuan Guiren who wanted to invite the opera troupe to the palace to sing. I think this play was specially arranged by Yuan Guiren for this palace to watch."

"She is threatening the Empress." Fang Yi sighed softly, "This time the emperor has restored Concubine Li's position. I'm afraid that the other side of Concubine Yuan will not be able to sleep."

"Don't think too simple about Concubine Li." The queen obviously counted Concubine Li as a stake. "Only a fool can be used in this way. Concubine Li is weak-hearted, but she is not stupid. She also has her own little plan. Today's play must have been arranged by Concubine Yuan at first, but Concubine Qi would not follow the flow and pretend to be ignorant and echo the show together."

Fangyi was slightly shocked. Thinking of Concubine Li again, she thought of the fact that she was a witchcraft doll that harmed people many years ago, and she couldn't help but believe in the queen's statement.

At this time, after the queen turned away, the remaining people who didn't see it at first but were embarrassed to leave could no longer sit still and stood up and left until there was no outsider in the opera hall. Then Concubine Li raised her hand and pulled down the actors who were still singing dedicatedly.

Zuo'er returned to her side and saw how she could not understand what was going on. She couldn't help but sigh: "Why is this kind of trouble? Yuan Guiren used this kind of opera to harm you. Just tell them not to sing this one. Why did he insist on letting them sing it even though he knew something was going to happen?"

Concubine Li's facial emotions were already a little distorted at this time. She stared at the stage with her silver teeth almost bitten. It took her a long time to speak, and then she heard her say, "Where are sisters? Even if she is a kiss, she would like to die! But I just want to live well, live for her and for everyone to see! I want them to know that even the queen, I don't take it seriously now! One day, my wind will inherit the throne, and by then, the whole world will be our mother and son! The old lady of the queen, don't think I don't know who she is going to. Didn't someone hand me yesterday that the queen went to ask the emperor for credit and wanted to give credit to the eighth prince. But I didn't expect the emperor to give me this credit! Zuo'er, why is this?"

Zuo'er didn't know why, so she wanted to persuade Concubine Li not to be extreme, but Concubine Li said again: "That's because my Feng'er helped the princess! My Feng'er made contributions, so the emperor sympathized with me. It has nothing to do with Zhu Kongshan!"

The Queen walked out of Changning Palace in anger, and soon someone spread to Cunshan Palace. Concubine Yuan curled her lips and smiled, saying, "If she offended the Queen, she would not be able to gain a foothold even if she was a concubine. In this harem, only by relying on my sister can she have a good life."
