Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
In Zhuyou Palace.
Grand Consort Yu still didn’t know what had happened.
She was looking at the yellow bronze mirror and getting the palace maid behind her to dress her up.
This palace maid was the person she had previously a.s.signed to forge the fake key.
“Grand Consort, your hair is black and shiny. You look really pretty.” In order to curry favor with her, the young palace maid quickly praised her.
Before she came to serve Grand Consort Yu…
She was just a palace maid in charge of sweeping the floors.
It wasn’t easy for her to get a chance to get close to her master. Of course, she couldn’t let go of this good opportunity.
The little palace maid even dreamed of how the Grand Consort Yu would become the empress dowager that His Majesty respected in the future.
By then, she could become the head palace maid by her side with her current merits!
At that time, they would definitely be more arrogant than the other two maids working under n.o.ble Consort Qiao—Wanyin and Wanxuan!
With this thought in mind, her mouth became even sweeter.
Grand Consort Yu enjoyed it very much. She pursed her lips and smiled brightly.
“When the previous emperor was alive, he also liked to praise my black hair the most. He once said that it was smooth and had a l.u.s.ter like satin.”
The little palace maid praised endlessly, “You and the late emperor are so loving. This servant is envious when I hear that!”
The idiom that the palace maid used was originally meant to describe husband and wife.
This was the thing Grand Consort Yu regretted the most in her life.
Even when the late emperor was on his deathbed, he refused to confer her the t.i.tle of Empress!
Although she was unwilling to admit it, the former emperor had always had the former Empress Chi in his heart.
Therefore, after Empress Chi died, no one else took the position of Empress.
Grand Consort Yu chuckled. “What’s the use of the late emperor doting on me? I’m old now, so I have to listen to His Majesty for everything.
“However, although I raised His Majesty for a few years, he wasn’t born from my stomach after all. There’s still a barrier between us.”
Gu Yihan was no longer the child who could be easily deceived by her.
After many years of political polishing, this child had already become a terrifying emperor.
Grand Consort Yu could not help but feel a little regretful.
Why didn’t she work harder back then and ruthlessly crush Gu Yihan’s heart?
He had clearly developed a violent personality.
Even if he became the emperor, he would still be a tyrant that everyone hated!
However, in recent years, his reputation among the commoners had become better.
No one hated him anymore.
Instead, he praised his firm and unyielding methods, allowing the citizens of Great Qi to live a more stable life.
Grand Consort Yu sighed.
Now that things had come to this, they could only get along in a roundabout way.
Sooner or later, Gu Yihan would have to give up the throne to her son!
The little palace maid flattered, “His Highness has already brought the private treasury’s key that the Grand Consort asked this servant to make to the Jinluan Hall today.
“This servant believes that under the witness of all the civil and military officials, His Majesty would understand that His Highness is the brother who was as close to him as a family.
“At that time, His Majesty will naturally remember your kindness, Grand Consort. The late Empress has been dead for so many years. His Majesty has always hated the late Empress for wanting to kill him and frame you back then.
You’re his biological mother!”
Hearing these words, Grand Consort Yu was very happy.
In the bronze mirror, Grand Consort Yu, who had taken good care of herself, had small eyes.
However, the light emitted from them carried a ruthlessness that was determined to win.
She curled her lips slightly and smiled.
“You’re right. I’m his mother!”
“Madam Chi, just watch carefully. Since I can pull you down from the position of Empress, I’ll naturally make your son lose the throne!
Grand Consort Yu was in a good mood and covered her mouth to smile.
However, at this moment, the young eunuch’s panicked voice came from outside the door—
“Grand Consort, there’s bad news! The imperial guards have taken His
Highness into custody and brought him back! “
