Chapter 1589: Entanglement of love and hate (1)

Xu Qi ‘an handed the little mare to the palace guards and went straight to the Imperial Palace. He went to the forbidden area of the palace-the harem.

The harem used to be a forbidden place for men. Even the inner palace guards could not approach it. Only women and eunuchs could move around in the harem.

But now, for Xu Qi ‘an, the harem was a place where he could enter and leave as he pleased, and he did not have to worry about the anger of the next emperor.

Even if the next emperor was angry, he would be angry for another reason.

Speaking of which, with such a phenomenon of frequent changing of emperors, the harem will most likely become a mess. Fortunately, Emperor Yongxing has only been the Emperor for less than three months, and huaiqing is a woman.

Thinking of the beautiful girls in the harem, Xu Qi ‘an couldn’t help but think of this question.

It could be said very responsibly that if the world was at peace after Emperor Yongxing ascended the throne, then it would not be long before those concubines left behind by yuan jing would become Yongxing’s playthings.

In fact, he had already succeeded.

The cause of the fu Fei case was that Yongxing had drunk a little wine and was then invited by the young Palace maid of Fu Fei’s Palace to be a “guest,” which led to the follow-up Fu Fei case.

Xu Qi ‘an did not believe that Yongxing did not miss his father’s concubine.

In the harem, probably only the Empress Dowager and Noble Consort Chen, two existences with transcendent status, could avoid such a fate.

And if the one to ascend the throne this time was not Huai Qing, but the fourth prince, then the concubines in Yongxing’s harem, the young and beautiful, would certainly not be able to escape the old pattern and would become the new King’s Toys.

There were many similar examples in the history books. It was common for the Emperor to snatch his daughter-in-law, younger brother’s wife, sister-in-law, father’s woman and so on.

Soon, they arrived at jingxiu Palace. The old eunuch guarding the door was trembling with fear. His voice trembled as he said, ”

“Xu, Xu yinluo, please come to the inner hall for a while. This, this servant will go and inform the Grand consort …”

After the extraordinary warrior nodded, the eunuch lowered his head and led the way without even daring to breathe.

Xu Qi ‘an entered the inner hall. As soon as he sat down, the eunuch returned and bowed.

“The Imperial consort Dowager has invited Xu yinluo into the room to talk.”

Xu Qi ‘an immediately stood up. He didn’t let the eunuch lead the way. He walked around the front courtyard with ease and familiarity and came to the elegant courtyard where Consort Chen lived.

The yard was not big. There were a few bare trees on the south side and a flower bed next to the trees. On the west side was a small pond with turtles and koi fish. On the north side was a two-story building that was painted red.

The courtyard was empty. There were no Palace maids or eunuchs busy with work.

Xu Qi ‘an walked through the courtyard and the threshold. In the living room, she saw the mother and daughter sitting on the soft couch.

Other than a personal Palace maid of Lin ‘an, there was no one else in the room.

Consort Chen was as beautiful as ever. A gorgeous headdress was inserted in her complicated bun, and she was wearing a well-cut and exquisite brocade dress. She was in her forties, and there were faint crow’s feet at the corners of her eyes, but it did not damage her appearance.

Instead, it had a special, indescribable charm.
