C2785 There Had Been One

Consort Li was also a consort of the late Emperor, but she was not a very favoured consort. Not to mention comparing her to someone like Consort Wu, even if she was compared to other concubines... She was also somewhat inferior. She might not be able to see the late emperor a few times throughout the year.1

Because of this, Imperial Concubine Li's status in the harem was very low. There were many concubines in the harem, and the position of everyone was related to the degree of trust they received from the Emperor. The status of the favoured concubines was naturally high, and the unfavoured concubines... Their status was low, and even palace maid and some eunuchs looked down on them in their hearts.

And Imperial Concubine Li was such a low-status concubine. So... After Consort Wu fell, the other former emperors' concubines... They all wanted to fight for the position of the harem master, wanting their son to ascend to the throne. However, Consort Li didn't have such thoughts. Because, she knew that her position in the harem was low... In the hearts of those officials, there was no position.

However, Imperial Concubine Li's position in the harem was low but she did not receive the neglect and discrimination from palace maid and the eunuchs. This was because of Princess Qi.

Princess Qi was a special existence in the Imperial Palace and the love that the previous Emperor had for her. She had more children than him. Therefore, when the previous Emperor was still around... Princess Qi had a very high position in the harem, while Princess Qi and her Royal Brother's concubines... It was common knowledge that Princess Qi and Imperial Concubine Wu were not on good terms. The relationship between the two was very bad, and if one were to say that Princess Qi and her Royal Brother's concubines... Whoever had the best relationship would definitely belong to Imperial Concubine Li. The two of them were even like sisters.

It was also because of Princess Qi's care that this Imperial Concubine who was ignored by her, Royal Brother, could safely survive in the Inner Palace. She would not even be bullied by other Imperial Concubine and eunuchs or palace maid.

This time, Princess Qi appeared in the Imperial Palace like a divine weapon that descended from the heavens and took down Wu Yan and his daughter. After eradicating the Wu Family, Imperial Concubine Li's heart was also faintly excited. Because Princess Qi had passed by, her and her son's situation was not very good. The treatment was also not as good as before. This was also due to Noble Consort Wu.

And Consort Li also knew that Princess Qi could decide the position of the harem's master. She could even decide the ownership of the throne. It was not like she had never thought of that before. It could be said that living in this harem, even if it was the purest person from before... There were also some scheming and shrewd people. This wasn't entirely a bad thing. Without scheming and subtlety, wanting to live in this harem... It wasn't easy.

However, although Li Fei had such thoughts, but... She did not take the initiative to look for Princess Qi because she knew Princess Qi's character. The two of them had a good relationship before, but it did not involve any interests. Princess Qi was still a relatively simple person. At this time, he went to find her. It might cause Princess Qi to be unhappy, especially when the other concubines were shut out. Therefore, Consort Li also gave up on the idea of looking for Princess Qi.

However, Consort Li did not expect that Princess Qi would take the initiative to look for her instead of Princess Qi. Thinking of Princess Qi's current identity, Consort Li's heart naturally became excited and nervous.

"In this harem, other than having a good relationship with Royal Brother, I also have a good relationship with him. In this harem, other than having a good relationship with ___, I also have a good relationship with Imperial Concubine and Big Sister Li." Princess Qi said, "Now that Royal Brother has passed away, the only person I can talk to in this harem is someone else. Sister Li Fei, you are the only one. "

This was the truth. After returning to the Imperial Palace, Princess Qi found that many things had changed. She had found the feelings of the past. She understood. This was mainly because her Royal Brother was no longer around. There was no warmth here. There was only a cold and indifferent look in her eyes. She didn't like this feeling. It was also because of this that she was even more determined to leave with Huang Feng.

And in this Imperial Palace, the only one she could speak to was Imperial Concubine Li.

"If younger sister feels bored to the point of panicking, you can come and find elder sister at any time. In any case, elder sister is fine." Consort Li said. Indeed, these concubines had nothing to do to begin with. After the Deceased Emperor died, they were even more free.

"Mm." Princess Qi said, "Actually, I will not stay here for long. After the matters here are settled, I will leave."

"Leave? Where are you going?" Consort Li looked at Princess Qi in surprise and said.

News of what happened outside the pass had already spread to the Great Lu Dynasty. The Fengjue Country had already been destroyed. Princess Qi did not even marry the prince of the Fengjue Country. Therefore... She didn't need to go outside anymore. Many people, including Imperial Concubine Li, thought... After Princess Qi returned to the Imperial Palace, she would live in the Imperial Palace in the future. However, hearing the meaning of Princess Qi's words, obviously... She would not stay in the Imperial Palace.

This made Consort Li somewhat nervous and disappointed. She knew... As long as Princess Qi was here, although she might not be able to become the master of the harem, but at least, no one would dare to bully and look down on her. His own son would not be looked down upon either. However... Once Princess Qi left, her situation might worsen once again.

"I don't know either." Princess Qi shook her head. She only wanted to follow Huang Feng. Wherever Huang Feng went, she would go. She did not have a fixed goal.

However, Consort Li did not know this. She did not understand what Princess Qi meant.

"Sister Consort Li, have you ever thought of taking charge of the harem?" Just as Consort Li was thinking about what she should do after Princess Qi left... Princess Qi suddenly threw a heavy bomb at her, causing her to feel dizzy.

Although, when Princess Qi came, Imperial Concubine Li was thinking in her heart. Was Princess Qi here for the matter of the harem? If not... Could he cleverly lead her to that topic? The opportunity was right in front of her. It was impossible to say that Imperial Concubine Li was not moved. She naturally wanted to try, even if she failed. Her situation would not be any worse than it was now. After all... It was Princess Qi who took the initiative to visit, not her who took the initiative to look for her. Even if Princess Qi did not have that intention, the relationship between them would not be too bad.

However, what Imperial Concubine Li did not expect was that before she came to quickly probe Princess Qi's words, Princess Qi took the initiative to talk about this matter, shocking Imperial Concubine Li to the point of being stunned on the spot.

Princess Qi did not urge Consort Li but quietly looked at her. Consort Li quickly reacted and knew that this was a critical moment. Once she missed it, there would not be such a good opportunity anymore.

Consort Li was just about to say that she did not think about it to gain Princess Qi's favorable impression but when she saw Princess Qi's eyes, she swallowed the words that she wanted to say and changed her words, "Yes!"
