Half a year ago, there was a coup d'état in the County Lord Nan, where the throne was seized. The Prince Cheng and his subjects were all sent to prison, and only four hours ago, the Emperor returned to the palace and rescued them from prison. The empress dowager is not the mother of the County Lord Nan, so it is normal for her to be wronged in the palace. When Feng Langyue heard Luo Xue ask about it, he finally told her about what happened in the palace half a year ago.

"So such a big thing has actually happened. But just now, I saw the emperor being extremely good to the County Lord Nan, it didn't seem like anything happened at all?" Luo Xue was stunned, she really did not expect such a huge thing to happen in the palace. Just now, seeing how Helian Yichen and County Lord Nan were chatting happily, it did not seem like something like a brother seizing the throne had happened at all.

"This subject isn't too sure about that. I should have dealt with it first, Your Majesty." They had followed beside the emperor for many years, and did not dare to speculate too much about his unfathomable skills. They believed that the emperor must have made the County Lord Nan submit, otherwise, how could he have taken the throne back without even moving a soldier.

"That's right, but returning the County Lord Nan to the throne is the wisest choice, luckily the Emperor is no longer the tyrant, otherwise I'm afraid his life would not be safe." Hearing this, Luo Xue's mood was especially at ease. Looking at how Helian Yichen and the County Lord Nan were getting along with each other just now, Helian Yichen had really changed a lot, at least he was more magnanimous than before.

"Mm, this subject feels …"

"How dare you, who are you people? You dare to walk freely in the palace?" Luo Xue and Guard Feng were heading to the Soaring Dragon Palace, but who would have thought that they would meet the County Lord Nan's Consort, the Empress a few hours ago?

"Princess, this is the Empress Dowager. There isn't any place in the imperial harem that the Empress Dowager can't reach." Feng Langyue guarded in front of Luo Xue, and vigilantly looked at County Lord Nan's wife. It was as if she still didn't know that County Lord Nan had already handed over the throne.

"Guard Feng, didn't you just get sent to hell by the emperor? Why was he out again? And who is this woman? " The County Lord Nan Concubine sized up Luo Xue. The current Luo Xue who was dressed in modern attire and had a ponytail was completely different from the way she was when she was an empress in the past. It was no wonder she could not recognize her.

"County Lord Nan's Consort, this subject has already said that this is Empress Dowager. Please give way, Consort Wang." Feng Langyue was a little nervous as he looked at the group of covetous women in front of him.

"Langyue, you can leave for now. I'll tell you." Luo Xue knew that the men here were all very big men, so it would be difficult for Feng Langyue to face off against a group of female disciples.

"Who are you? I am the queen." The County Lord Nan Concubine's face was dark as she angrily stared at Luo Xue.

I am Situ Luoxue, and a year ago, the Emperor and I left the palace. Now that we are back, the County Lord Nan has voluntarily returned the throne to us. From the looks of it, the Princess does not seem to know this name. With just a few words, Luo Xue had made the situation clear.

"Impossible, Situ Luoxue. I just saw the emperor this morning. It's only been a few hours, how could the emperor …"

"If wangfei doesn't believe me, you can come with me to the Long Xiang Hall to see what is going on." Luo Xue didn't want to argue with her. Firstly, it was meaningless. Secondly, as long as they went to Long Yi Hall, everything would be clear.

"How dare you talk to Empress Dowager like that, someone, slap your own face!" County Lord Nan Concubine did not say anything, but the palace maid beside her was putting on a show of might.

"Little girl, it's not up to you to decide. Step down, Princess Consort. Let's go." Luo Xue's gaze alone was enough to scare palace maid. Here, she had nothing to be afraid of. These women were all paper tigers, she was not the least bit worried.

"Has the Supreme Emperor truly returned?" Although County Lord Nan's Consort was angry, she was not an idiot. Currently, in the imperial harem, there was someone who dared to swagger like that and speak to her without any worries; I believe there was no one else other than Situ Luoxue.

Moreover, even Helian Yichen had come out. What did this mean, was Helian Yichen really back? Did the emperor just give up the throne like that?

"I didn't expect that after only a year of not returning, I would become the Emperor. Then, wouldn't I also become the Empress Dowager?" Luo Xue was startled, then burst out laughing.

"Situ Luoxue, I won't play games with you. Once we reach the Long Xiang Hall, I will ask the Emperor for an explanation." The Queen glared fiercely at Luo Xue, and then raised her head and said, "Let's go to the Long Xiang Hall."

"That... May I ask how many concubine s are there in the harem, and how many talented people are there? " Luo Xue looked at the huge group of imperial concubines behind County Lord Nan and asked curiously.

"Why do you ask?" County Lord Nan looked back at Luo Xue vigilantly.

"Hehe, I was purely curious. Actually, what I wanted to ask was, where did the concubine of the Supreme Emperor go?" Xiao Xue did not care about how many women there were in the County Lord Nan. She only cared about the women that Helian Yichen had doted on in the past. Although some of them left the palace, the stubborn ones stayed in the palace.

"Other than a few who left the palace, the others stayed in the rear palace and became concubine of the new Emperor." County Lord Nan Concubine said unwillingly.

"If that's the case, then if County Lord Nan moves back to the Duke Palaces, do you mind if they go back together with you?" Luo Xue was a little frightened, she did not expect that not only did the County Lord Nan seize Helian Yichen's throne, even the women had to accept it, this kind of custom was really not good.

"Situ Luoxue, too... Helian Yichen is really back? " When County Lord Nan saw Luo Xue's calm face and thoughtful expression when she mentioned the second wife, he couldn't help but believe in her.

"Of course, we went back to the palace together. With me here, he will naturally be here as well. Actually, it's not that easy to be a queen, right?" Luo Xue pointed, and the topic turned to the second wife.

She did not wish for those women to stay in the palace. Firstly, she was not so generous as to give her husband to others, and secondly, she was not interested in keeping the women who spent all their time thinking of putting her husband to bed. If one day, someone used a trick to seduce Helian Yichen and she became pregnant with him, it would be a huge problem for her.

Since she had already used the County Lord Nan, if he was willing to take her away, then it would be for the best. It would also prevent her from thinking too much about how to make the arrangements for the imperial concubine.

"Situ Luoxue, if the Emperor really gives up the throne, don't even think about sending the women from the harem back to the Duke's Palace." The County Lord Nan's Consort finally understood. Since Situ Luoxue didn't want them, then she would naturally not want them anymore if she wasn't the empress.

The Prince's Mansion was so vast, they could raise so many women, let alone those who were jealous. No one would foolishly send a bunch of beauties to their husbands.

"Hehehe, wangfei really likes to joke around. But since she's been favored by the prince, she should follow him back." Luo Xue chuckled. She would not just think about it, she would do it.

They could have married after leaving the palace, could have returned to their families, they were unwilling to leave, but they had caused her and Helian Yichen a headache. Since it was such a situation, it was better to go with the flow and send all the women out.

"Although the prince has doted on them before, they are the emperor's women after all. Since the emperor has returned, naturally, they should …"

"Cough, wangfei, you don't have to say it like that. Things can be returned to their rightful owners, how can this person be?" Luo Xue interrupted the wangfei's words. This thing could be said to be returned to its original owner, but this woman was different. How could she return it?

"Hmph, stop daydreaming anyway, I won't agree." The County Lord Nan's Concubine snorted.

"Hehe, if you really can make up your mind, I will naturally think of another way to get rid of them." Luo Xue smiled. She was a woman, the County Lord Nan was the same, and the harem was the same. She would not do anything that would make it difficult for a woman.

"If you can make the decision, then I can make the decision." The County Lord Nan insisted.

"I don't want to make the decision. If Helian Yichen really wants to keep them here, I won't stop them. I'll just leave." Luo Xue shook her head. She didn't want to be like these women and dress up for a man. She only wanted that man to look back at her so she wouldn't mistreat herself like this.

"You … Situ Luoxue, you have such big words. It's normal for a man to have three wives, four concubines, let alone the emperor. When the Duke was still the Duke, she had heard that the Emperor had crippled the imperial harem for the Empress. Now, the Empress had said as if it was only natural that the Emperor would have no other woman, and the same woman, how could she not be jealous?

"Relax, don't be too sad. I believe that in the near future, the Emperor will change the situation of a man's three wives and four concubines. So, wangfei doesn't need to worry too much." Luo Xue looked at the wangfei and could not bear to do so. As a result, she walked over and pulled her hand.

She knew that this day was inevitable, but she was afraid that it wouldn't be that quick. Helian Yichen had a lot of things to take care of, so how could he deal with the matter of husband and wife that was hard to say.

Of course, this was only secondary. If he was to practice monogamy like the current people, he would most likely be opposed by many people.

"Situ Luoxue, I think you're crazy. How could the emperor …"

"Empress Dowager, we have already reached the Long Xiang Hall. Should we report this to the Emperor first?" The two women, as they chatted along the way, had unknowingly arrived at the Long Xiang Hall. According to the rules of the palace, they had to first ask for instructions from the Emperor.

"There's no need. Let's just go in. His Majesty and His Highness probably won't say anything shameful." Luo Xue was the first to step into Long Xiang Hall, but County Lord Nan Concubine was a little burdened, not daring to take another step.

"This servant greets Empress Dowager. Thousand years old, thousand years old." As soon as Luo Xue stepped into the hall, the palace maids bowed to her.

"No need, the emperor is inside." Luo Xue waved her hand. Coming back from modern times, she was not used to these etiquette, especially when it was the kind of people who would kneel to her at every turn.
