Even though Song Yunqian and Chen Yuanqing were monarchs, their words were already filled with hostility, and Chen Yurou, who was being protected by Chen Yuanqing, was crying. It was just that she kept looking at Song Yunqian with deep emotions, that infatuated look of hers always made Wen Yi think of the days when Chen Yuzhu was poisoned.

In the end, she still couldn't bear to let Chen Yurou do as she pleased, even if she was the man she liked.

Song Yunqian looked at Wen Yi when he heard him, his eyes filled with annoyance, but Wen Yi only smiled and lowered her head. If possible, she did not want Song Yunqian to go, but Chen Yuanqing would not let it go so easily.

"Master Wen is only in charge of the affairs of the phoenix imprint. I never thought that it would be like General Chen, who likes to meddle in my family's affairs." Song Yunqian angrily stood up and walked towards the entrance of the palace. Wen Yi breathed a sigh of relief and said softly to Chen Yuanqing, "Bring Imperial Concubine Rou to the Ruyi Temple, the Emperor has already gone."

Chen Yuanqing had already made preparations to bring his sister to the Li Palace. While he was waiting for Song Yunqian to make a decision, he had even thought of ways to force Song Yunqian to marry his sister himself.

Watching Chen Yuanqing's back as he disappeared from the great hall, the empress dowager took Wen Yi's hand and said softly, "If Your Majesty is going to attend the Consort Competition, then your majesty must stay in the New Consort Hall tonight."

Wen Yi only nodded, she knew of this rule, that's why she asked Song Yunqian to go over. She knew very well that only she could persuade Song Yunqian.

Song Yunqian accepted Chen Yurou because he wanted to win over Chen Yuanqing. If the two of them were to clash swords with each other over a Concubine Ceremony, then the gains would not make up for the losses.

"I have truly wronged you. If it wasn't for the previous emperor leaving behind such a mess, the emperor wouldn't have … sigh." Thousands of words were spoken, but in the end, all that was said was a long sigh.

"Majesty, trust us, everything will be fine. Everything will be fine." Wen Yi rarely heard the empress dowager's emotional words. Sensing the empress dowager's love, Wen Yi held her hands tightly, promising her in a serious and sincere manner.

However, making everything better was destined to be a long road, and there were too many ups and downs on this road. These twists and turns filled every little detail of their lives.

When Wen Yi arrived at the Ruyi Palace in the evening, Song Yunqian and the other palace concubines had all arrived. Song Yunqian sat at the seat in the middle of the hall with a cold expression, and the Imperial Concubine Rou was seated beside him.

Wen Yi slowly walked over to pay her respects. Song Yunqian merely nodded lightly, his expression still ice-cold, as if the rumors were really true. Between him and Wen Yi …

The concubines naturally paid attention to the interaction between the two of them, but Wen Yi didn't mind. She stood up and sat on his left side without waiting for Song Yunqian to speak, then smiled and looked at everyone around him.

Only then did everyone stand up, under the lead of Ke Er and the Noble Consort Lan, the recently sealed Imperial Concubine Rou was no exception. She stood up slowly beside Song Yunqian, and just as she was about to walk towards the side of the group, her arm was grabbed by a big hand.

"Today is your good day, you don't have to bow to her." Song Yunqian's words were light, but they still made the palace concubines who had already stood up feel extremely jealous.

Wen Yi only sneered at Song Yunqian, but at the moment when Song Yunqian held onto Imperial Concubine Rou's arm, Imperial Concubine Rou's face had already turned completely red. She looked at Song Yunqian shyly, then looked at Wen Yi helplessly.

"What do you think she's doing? "The harem is still my harem." Seeing Chen Yurou looking at Wen Yi, Song Yunqian's anger became even stronger, and she shouted loudly.

The group of palace concubines all turned to look at Wen Yi when they heard him, but Wen Yi's expression was indifferent, as if she did not care at all about what Song Yunqian said.

If it was said that the rumors of the Imperial Concubine Liang being favoured had caused them to fear the Emperor, then Song Yunqian's actions today had undoubtedly made their hearts boil.

The Emperor really pitied women other than Wen Yi. There was now a conflict between the Emperor and Wen Yi.

The Emperor really does not stand guard for the Master Wen anymore. Before, there was the Imperial Concubine Liang, but now there is one, so will their spring still be far off?

"Since this is the empress dowager's harem, then there's no need for all of you to pay your respects to me. I am only here to settle matters with the Flying Dragon Sect. When the matters of the Flying Dragon Sect are over, I will naturally leave." After Wen Yi finished speaking, she stood up and slowly walked toward the entrance of the hall.

"Stop." Wen Yi shouted angrily at Wen Yi, but upon hearing her words, she immediately stopped, smiled, and asked Song Yunqian: "May I ask what your majesty has taught me?"

"You stay." Song Yunqian's low voice seemed to be able to freeze people, but everyone could see the disgust in Song Yunqian's eyes.

"Flying Dragon Sect Lord has no obligation to cheer the Emperor on." The corner of Wen Yi's mouth carried a hint of a mocking smile, but Song Yunqian looked at Wen Yi and smiled as he said: "But our Imperial Concubine Rou was given to us by our Sect Leader of Flying Dragon Sect; since you are the matchmaker for Rou'er and me, how can you miss this Feast of Consort."

Wen Yi did not speak, she turned and returned to her seat, but there was no trace of the faint smile on her face. She only looked coldly at the people around her, while Qian Shan behind her glared at Song Yunqian.

Song Yunqian ignored them and continued to chat with Imperial Concubine Rou in a low voice while looking deeply at Imperial Concubine Liang. Ke Er, Noble Consort Lan and the other unfavored imperial concubines also spoke fawning on the Emperor, happily toasting the Emperor, and Song Yunqian accepted them all. However, amidst the laughter of the concubines, he would always look in Wen Yi's direction absent-mindedly.

Wen Yi sat there indifferently the entire time, she didn't seem to have any sort of sadness on her face.

Ke Er also looked at Wen Yi from time to time. If she had doubts deep down in her heart yesterday, then she would completely believe it today.

"Previously, I was confused, thinking that she was the only good woman in the world. Only now do I know that besides her, all the best women are in the world." Song Yunqian was drunk, the words that he said were like daggers that pierced Wen Yi's heart, yet they were also like fireworks that blossomed in the hearts of the women who had all sorts of thoughts.

She said to Song Yunqian with a bland smile, "The one who is confused is not only you, I also thought that you were the best man in the world. But look at yourself now, what difference do you have between that and those loose, unruly sons of bitches? Song Yunqian, you really disappoint me, Flying Dragon Sect."

Wen Yi stood up and left as soon as she finished speaking. Song Yunqian was just about to speak when he saw Qian Shan suddenly turning his head to wait for Song Yunqian, saying, "Your Majesty, you will regret treating our Sect Master like this."

After she finished speaking, Qian Shan caught up to Wen Yi's hurried footsteps, but before Wen Yi could walk out of the hall, she heard a loud sound from behind, and someone fainted.
