Quickly wear salted fish, she won by lying down

In the palace, if one concubine praises another concubine for being favored by the emperor, don't think that she is sincerely praising the other. After all, they are all the emperor's women. Who can bear to be out of favor and then the emperor favors other women? Not to say that the praise is all against one's will, but at least 90% of it is against one's will.

So don't respond to this kind of talk, lest you say too much and make more mistakes.

Seeing that Linlang didn't respond, Concubine Cai thought that she was quite cautious, so she took Linlang's hand and said as they walked, "Don't think that what I said is false, I am speaking from the heart. Right now in the palace, His Majesty only favors Concubine Li. For others, if they can be favored and promoted, it's already extraordinary. Although they are not as good as Concubine Li, they are also very much loved by His Majesty. For others, let alone promotion, some can't even be favored! There is no way, now Concubine Li is the only one favored in the harem, the rest of us can only follow her and drink some soup. Some people can't even drink soup, how pitiful."

Linlang listened to Concubine Cai repeatedly saying how favored Concubine Li was and how pitiful the others were, and she instantly understood what Concubine Cai was doing.

She just said that she was just a little lady, so what right did she have to ask Concubine Cai to condescend to greet her?

Besides, there are six palaces in the palace harem, and their side is the west palace. Concubine Cai lives in the east palace. It is quite strange for her to run to the small garden behind the Zi Lan Hall in the west palace for nothing. After all, the east palace is far away from the west palace, and it is quite troublesome to run over. Normally, if people want to go out for a walk, they mostly go to the small garden behind their own palace, and will not cross the central axis to come to the small garden of another palace to play.

It's impossible to say that there is nothing wrong. It turns out that he just wants to sow discord between her and Concubine Li.

He kept telling her how favored Concubine Li was, hoping to make her hate her and eventually have a fight with her so that she could reap the benefits, right?

However, given her current situation, Concubine Cai was probably in a state of trying to get something for nothing. If she was out of favor in the future, or couldn't deal with Concubine Li, she would just say a few words and there would be no loss. If she was persuaded by her and was favored in the future, and could deal with Concubine Li, the two of them would both suffer losses, and she could kill two favored people at once, and then she would be able to reap the benefits. How great would that be.

After hearing what Concubine Cai said, Linlang pretended not to hear her instigation. She listened with a smile, and nodded occasionally, pretending to have heard it.

Seeing that Linlang didn't talk much, Concubine Cai didn't know whether Linlang was mentally ill and couldn't understand what she said, so she was still very cautious. Anyway, she was just trying to make a profit, so it didn't matter. After saying these words, she patted Linlang's hand and left.

In addition to Concubine Cai, some other high-ranking concubines also ran to Linlang and said some vague words, trying to provoke her to have conflicts with someone, but their main purpose was to sow discord between her and Concubine Li.

These high-ranking concubines have one thing in common, that is, they are not very favored, so they all want to fight with Concubine Li so that they will benefit in the future.

Linlang couldn't help but laugh when she saw the looks on these people's faces.

Of course, these people are also cunning. Every time they say something bad about Concubine Li, they just keep saying that Concubine Li is the only one favored and emphasize that Concubine Li is the only one favored. In this way, if it were someone else, they might be aroused to win by these people, thinking that if Concubine Li can be the only one favored, then so can they.

Who knows, in the future, he might really fight with Concubine Li as these people think, and both sides will suffer losses. It would be a good thing for these people to take advantage of it, and that would be stupid.

In fact, unless Concubine Li causes trouble for her, Linlang will not fight with Concubine Li. After all, her goal is to rise step by step, and then put pressure on the Second House and slap the Second House on behalf of her original self. She has no interest in fighting with Concubine Li.

Besides, she thought that the emperor liked Concubine Li so much because she was beautiful. Therefore, if you serve others with your beauty, your love will fade when your beauty fades. She didn't need to fight with Concubine Li at all. When she was promoted to a high position one day, Concubine Li would have fallen out of favor with the emperor because of her age. Would she still need to fight? However, she didn't fight with Concubine Li because she was afraid that Concubine Li would fight with her in the future. After all, if her position became higher and higher, even becoming a noble concubine or a royal concubine, and Concubine Li was still a concubine, she was afraid that she would not be able to tolerate others surpassing her and might fight with her. Then she would be forced to fight back.

As long as Concubine Li doesn't cause trouble for her, she will definitely not take the initiative to cause trouble for Concubine Li. No matter how favored the other party is, she will not be jealous enough to harm her. After all, she will not be jealous of someone who has to share a public cucumber with others.

However, not long after that, Linlang spent money again and got a chance to be favored by the emperor. She was promoted again to the sixth rank Baolin.

At this time, Concubine Liu, who had been imprisoned by the emperor for three months, was released.

Although Concubine Liu was put in solitary confinement, her servants were not, so she naturally knew what had happened in Zi Lan Palace.

I heard that during the time she was in solitary confinement, Sun Linlang was promoted two levels and is now at the sixth rank. Although it cannot be compared with her third rank, it is also scary. After all, Sun Linlang can be promoted one level every time she is favored. If this continues, sooner or later she will reach the same height as her. How can this be allowed? After all, she doesn't want to see Sun Linlang turn over and cause trouble for herself.

So Concubine Liu planned to find a way to stop Linlang from developing in this way.

Although Concubine Liu wanted to cause trouble for Linlang, she now had more important things to do, which was to deal with those low-ranking concubines who had previously reported her to the emperor for robbing money.

Linlang was promoted quickly, so she did have to deal with her, but she believed that other people would not be able to accept Linlang's rapid promotion and would want to deal with her, so she would not take action for the time being. It was okay and she could just sit back and watch the fight for a while.

It was those concubines of lower rank who sued her, but there was no one else to deal with them. If she didn't deal with them, these people could continue to live happily. How could this be possible? So after Concubine Liu came out, although she wanted to make trouble for Linlang, the most important thing to do at the moment was to make trouble for those who had sued her before.

To cause trouble for these people, Concubine Liu still had three tricks, which was to make them stand as punishment when they came to pay their respects. It happened that the weather was getting hotter at this time, and it would be very uncomfortable to stand in the sun for a long time.

Or they might beat these people up on the pretext of being impolite.

These people had long anticipated that Concubine Liu would cause trouble for them, so they were not surprised and could only endure it silently. After all, they sued Concubine Liu at that time, but the emperor did not deal with her. They knew that when Concubine Liu came out, they would suffer.

But there was no other way. They had tried every possible way in the past few months, but had not been able to leave Concubine Liu's palace and move to other palaces. Now they could only face Concubine Liu head-on and cause trouble.

Fortunately, everyone is familiar with Concubine Liu's three tricks, and as long as they are patient, they can bear it.

Although Concubine Liu started to cause trouble for these people as soon as she came out and looked aggressive, she temporarily stopped asking the people in Zi Lan Palace to pay tribute. (End of this chapter)
