A fairy from various TV dramas and movies travels through time, starting with Consort Fucha.

Chapter 91 Noble Lady Fucha bestows titles upon the imperial harem.

Su Peisheng responded, then unfurled the bright yellow scroll in his hand and read aloud in a high-pitched, clear voice:

"By the grace of Heaven, the Emperor decrees: Consort Hua is hereby specially promoted to Imperial Noble Consort Hua, in recognition of her virtuous and obedient conduct."

Consort Shu was gentle and dignified, and was promoted to Imperial Noble Consort Shu.

Consort Jing was always strict in adhering to palace rules and worked diligently, so she was promoted to Imperial Noble Consort Jing.

In addition, Consort Jin was promoted to Imperial Concubine Jin, and Noble Lady Xin was promoted to Consort Xin because of her gentle and charming nature, which won the Emperor's favor.

Consort Fang was of pure and virtuous character and was promoted to Consort Fang.

Chun Changzai is hereby promoted to Chun Guiren. So be it!

Nian Shilan, Fucha Peiyun, Consort Jing, and all the other recipients of the titles rose to their feet.

They respectfully kowtowed in gratitude, and shouted in unison:

"Your Majesty, I thank you for your great favor! Long live the Emperor!"

The imperial edict from the fat orange cat really surprised everyone in the harem.

Previously, Consort Hua, Nian Shilan, longed to become an Imperial Noble Consort.

But Big Fat Orange was wary of the Nian family and dissatisfied with Nian Shilan's arrogance and domineering attitude.

She was only promoted to Imperial Noble Consort, but unexpectedly, she had only been an Imperial Noble Consort for a short time.

This time, the chubby orange cat actually bestowed upon her the title of Imperial Noble Consort.

Fucha Peiyun never expected that she, who had just been promoted to Consort Shu, would be promoted to Imperial Consort in such a short time.

Consort Jing, Consort Jin, and Noble Lady Xin were all stunned by this stroke of good fortune.

But at this moment, the person she wanted to thank wasn't the chubby emperor, but rather Consort Shu, now known as Consort Shu.

This is the benefit of aligning yourself with the right powerful figure; without Consort Shu and the others, how could they have achieved their current glory?

Consort Jin, Cao Qinmo, and Consort Xin, Lü Yingfeng, both once dreamed of becoming the head of a palace.

Unexpectedly, they achieved their wish in a very short time.

There's a reason why Big Fat Orange was so generous this time; no matter how arrogant or domineering Shilan has been over the years...

That was for other people, but for him, it was all-out effort.

He essentially killed Shilan's child back then.

And it was all his doing that made her infertile and childless all these years.

He always felt guilty towards her; after Shilan lost her memory, he always felt he had let her down.

The Nian family spent most of their fortune praying for Shilan during this period.

Those ill-gotten gains from the people should also be considered as taken from the people and used for the people.

Nian Gengyao also became much more subdued.

During this period, Shilan managed the harem more effectively than the Empress.

He didn't want to hand over the harem to the Empress again; from now on, the harem would be under Shilan's management.

After Consort Shu gave birth to a son, Consort Jing and other concubines in the harem became pregnant one after another.

Consort Jing and others all said it was a blessing for Consort Shu and her son.

Big Fat Orange thinks so too.

Meanwhile, the former Consort Shu, father Fucha Honghan, handled matters effectively, and the cement issue benefited the country and its people.

He won a lot of popular support, and this time, the big fat orange cat couldn't possibly suppress her position anymore.

In fact, Consort Shu is now the best candidate for Empress in his heart.

But he couldn't depose the empress, and he couldn't bear to part with Shilan.

They had no choice but to promote Shilan to Imperial Noble Consort and Shufei to Noble Consort, just to maintain balance.

Consort Jing and the others were already veterans in the palace, and some were even pregnant, so it was naturally inappropriate to leave them out.

However, their status would stop there from then on.

Although Fucha Peiyun and the others were surprised, they naturally couldn't miss such a good thing and immediately expressed their gratitude.

This confirms the matter.

While those whose names were on the imperial decree were happy, Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang, whose names were not on the list, felt disappointed.

Especially Zhen Huan, the Emperor had previously hinted that he would promote her to the rank of Consort after she gave birth to his child.

Unfortunately, her arrogance led to the death of her child before birth.

All of this was thanks to the Empress. If it weren't for the Empress, Zhen Huan would have long been a Consort or a Noble Consort.

This made Zhen Huan's gaze towards the Empress even more venomous.

She also regretted it, regretting that she shouldn't have pushed the emperor away time and time again after losing her child.

Of course, she also harbored resentment towards the Emperor, resenting that he had simply forgotten her.

She resented the man's heartlessness, yet she still needed him in this palace.

He used his high position to avenge his child and bring glory to his family.

The Empress found the promotions of Consort Hua and others utterly unbelievable.

Since the Empress didn't die, the Emperor promoted Consort Hua to Imperial Noble Consort.

This shows that the Emperor completely disregards her, the Empress.

From now on, she will only have the title of Empress in the palace; she will never have any real power.

Who knows, she might be deposed one day.

Today, the Emperor bestowed titles and honors upon the empress, yet she, the empress, heard not a word of it.

The conferment of the title of Imperial Noble Consort was not merely a verbal promotion; it involved the issuance of official seals, ceremonial robes, and the formal investiture ceremony.

All of this had to be prepared by the Imperial Household Department, but the Empress's spies within the department hadn't relayed a single piece of information to her.

And there are continuous happy events in the harem? What happy events? She's never heard of them.

Consort Shu and Consort Jing were only recently promoted, how could they be promoted again?

The Empress disregarded everything else and stood up to object.

When the chubby orange saw the Empress suddenly stand up to object, it frowned slightly and said authoritatively:

"What does the Empress mean by this? Are you going to disobey my decree as well?"

Upon hearing this, the Empress immediately knelt down, but still stubbornly said:

"Your Majesty, isn't this promotion a bit too hasty? Consort Shu and Consort Jing have only recently been promoted."

Why the promotion in such a short time?

Big Fat Orange snorted coldly: "The Consort Shu's family is quite capable."

Consort Jing, Consort Jin, and Consort Xin have served me for many years, and now they are pregnant again.

How could I possibly mistreat them? My mind is made up, so don't interfere.

I haven't even settled the scores with you from before, you..."

The Empress was filled with disbelief and resentment, but she could not let the Emperor say what followed.

She quickly curtsied and said, "Your Majesty, I obey."

The chubby orange snorted coldly, "This empress is indeed petty."

She used to enjoy suppressing Consort Feng. Whenever I intended to promote a Consort Feng, the Empress would always find an excuse to dissuade her.

The more the Empress acted this way, the more determined he became to promote Shilan and others.

The Empress returned to her seat, her eyes sweeping over the newly promoted concubines with a sinister gaze.

Especially Consort Hua, Consort Shu, and Consort Jing

How could Consort Shu have ever thought she was stupid and easy to manipulate?

It all started with her failed scheme to cause Empress Fucha's miscarriage at the flower-viewing banquet.

But she couldn't figure out where she had gone wrong. Could it be An Lingrong?

Unfortunately, An Lingrong was already dead, and she had no way to take action against the Fucha clan.

Pregnant? Consort Jing is pregnant? How could she possibly be pregnant?

Her body should have been ruined by the Huan Yi Xiang long ago, how could she possibly be pregnant?

Not only Consort Jing, but also Consort Jin, Cao Qinmo, and Noble Lady Xin, Lü Yingfeng,

The Empress had also secretly tampered with their bodies.

Logically speaking, these three people should have long lost their ability to have children.

But now they are all pregnant.

This sudden turn of events threw the Empress into disarray, leaving her completely at a loss.

Throughout her life, the Empress relied on her years of honed patience and forbearance.

In the face of any changes in the palace, she always maintained a calm and composed demeanor.

However, faced with this unexpected situation, her years of patience finally collapsed in an instant.

That once dignified and imposing face now held a complex expression that shifted between light and shadow.

He was sometimes angry, sometimes terrified, completely lacking his usual composure and calmness.

Everyone noticed the change in the Empress's face, and they were secretly delighted.

The Empress was adept at feigning magnanimity, but in reality, she was ruthless.

It's truly gratifying to see the Empress in such a sorry state.

Everyone couldn't help but sigh: evil has its retribution; this is the Empress's just desserts for all her evil deeds!

Consort Qi wasn't without jealousy about their promotions, but now she was terrified.

She knew she wasn't smart enough to outmaneuver these people, so she decided to stay out of it.

If only we could protect the lives of mother and child in this harem.

In the future, she will also advise the Third Prince not to think about those things just because he is the Emperor's eldest son.

From now on, stay far away from the Empress, and don't become her pawn.

The Empress Dowager, the Empress's patron, is on the verge of death; the Empress herself will not have a good end.

Zhen Huan regretted not acting sooner; perhaps she too could have been made a concubine.

But seeing the Empress's disappointment, Zhen Huan was also happy.

The ruthlessness and hatred on the Empress's face made her already haggard face look extremely ferocious.

Recalling the past, Zhen Huan couldn't help but feel puzzled.

Why did I initially think the Empress was kind and magnanimous?

How could this ruthless and unscrupulous woman be worthy of the position of empress?

However, Zhen Huan was somewhat surprised by the unexpected pregnancies of Consort Jing and others.

Fortunately, Consort Jing and others were on good terms with her, and Consort Jing's pregnancy did not pose any threat to her.

However, the Empress was the one who repeatedly framed her and was the culprit who caused the death of her daughter.

The pregnancies of Consort Jing and others may be a golden opportunity to bring down the Empress.

However, this matter requires careful consideration, as it is not the time to rush into anything.

She still has things to do tonight.

Only by gaining the Emperor's favor can one have a future.

Only then would he have enough power to avenge his poor daughter.

Thinking of this, Zhen Huan couldn't help but clench her fists tightly, her gaze firm and resolute.

Zhen Huan slowly turned her head to look at Shen Meizhuang beside her, and saw Shen Meizhuang nod slightly.

Zhen Huan quietly got up and left the banquet without making a sound.

Zhen Huan thought no one would notice her departure, but Fucha Peiyun, Nian Shilan, and others all saw her leave.

Shen Meizhuang secretly calculated the time, and when the opportunity was right, she gracefully rose.

She steadily picked up an exquisite wine glass and walked gracefully toward the large, chubby orange.

Upon approaching, Shen Meizhuang bowed slightly and said softly:

"Your Majesty, tonight is New Year's Eve, a truly joyous and peaceful day!"

The fact that Consort Jing, Consort Jin, and Consort Xin were all pregnant was a double blessing.

Your Majesty, I, your humble servant, offer you this cup in special toast, wishing you good health.

May our dynasty's imperial lineage prosper, and may our descendants continue unbroken.

As she spoke, Shen Meizhuang handed the wine glass in her hand to the big fat orange.

Seeing Shen Meizhuang's reaction, the chubby orange cat thought she was finally willing to back down.

I really like Meizhuang's integrity, but I also dislike her constant coldness towards him.

Now that the beauty has given in, Big Orange is naturally happy.

Big Fat Orange took the glass, tilted his head back, and downed it in one gulp.

Then he put down his wine glass, took Shen Meizhuang's hand, and said:

"What Mei'er says is very true, and I am very pleased. Come, sit down with me."

Shen Meizhuang said

"When I came here, I passed by the Plum Blossom Garden and saw that the plum blossoms there were very beautiful."

Would Your Majesty like to go and see it?

Upon hearing Shen Meizhuang's words, a hint of interest flashed in the eyes of the chubby orange cat.

Big Fatty Orange thought Shen Meizhuang had prepared some kind of surprise for him, and was happy to play along.

"In that case, I will go with you to take a look."

So the two prepared to go to Yimei Garden, and Fucha Peiyun, Nian Shilan, and others also wanted to go and see it.

What kind of drama are Shen Meizhuang and Zhen Huan putting on?

Consort Jing and the others are pregnant, so it's best they don't go out in this freezing weather to join in the fun.

The plum blossoms in the garden are in full bloom, their subtle fragrance wafting through the air.

Shen Meizhuang led the big fat orange tree through the area, occasionally breaking off a branch and handing it to the big fat orange tree.

Big Fat Orange was in a good mood, as if it had forgotten the unpleasantness between the two of them in the past.

When the two arrived at Yimei Garden, Big Fat Orange saw a woman in a cloak kneeling under a plum tree in the distance.

The chubby orange frowned, its heart filled with doubt.

Shen Meizhuang gently tugged at his sleeve and whispered, "Your Majesty, why don't you go forward and take a look?"

Hearing the sound of footsteps in the snow behind her, Zhen Huan quickly put her hands together and prayed devoutly.

"The devout woman Zhen is neither talented nor virtuous, and is unfit to guarantee the imperial heir."

Feeling ashamed and unable to face the Emperor

Now, the emperor's concubines are becoming pregnant one after another, ensuring the continuation of his lineage.

The believer was overjoyed and sincerely prayed for the Emperor's protection from Heaven.

May you have peace, joy, and many descendants; may your blessings last forever.

When the chubby orange cat heard the familiar voice, it knew it was Huanhuan.

Big Fatty Orange already knew that Huanhuan had finished her postpartum confinement, but her previous cold treatment of him...

He no longer had the heart to go to Suiyu Pavilion, but he wondered if Huanhuan had come to her senses yet.

Suddenly, the Plum Blossom Garden slowly brightened, and Zhen Huan was still praying.

May my wish be fulfilled; I, a devout Buddhist, vow to be a vegetarian for life.

The next part originally included the suggestion of no longer serving the emperor, a statement that Zhen Huan could confidently make in the past, employing a strategy of feigned retreat.

She dared not say those words now, and she heard many footsteps.

Zhen Huan knew that more than just the Emperor and Mei Jie would be coming.

If her words give others leverage against her, her future may be bleak.

She is no longer as arrogant as she used to be; she must proceed with extreme caution.

Nian Shilan and Fucha Peiyun walked together. "Zhen Huan keeps playing the same old tricks."

I thought she might have something new to offer, but it's just the same old prayer ritual again.

His words implied a deep disdain for Zhen Huan.

Fucha Peiyun: "As long as this move is new or effective, that's good. The Emperor is sentimental."

As long as Zhen Huan has that face, the Emperor will still remember her.

Nian Shilan scoffed, "How boring."

Big Fat Orange walked forward

"Huanhuan, is that you?"

Zhen Huan said, "I have no face to face the Emperor, I only wish to pray for his well-being."

"Does Huanhuan still not want to see me?"

Zhen Huan: "Your Majesty, my shoes and socks are wet."

The chubby orange cat said, "I remember you saying that back then."

Zhen Huan said, "Your Majesty still remembers, but I dare not remember anymore."

Big Fat Orange went over to help Zhen Huan.

"The snow is wet and cold, Huanhuan, you should get up."

The chubby orange cat held Zhen Huan's hand. "Your hands are so cold. Aren't you afraid of getting sick from the cold?"

Your body is in such a precarious state that you must not be further damaged.

Zhen Huan withdrew her hand

"Your Majesty, I am only praying for your well-being. If I have caused you any worry, it is my fault."

The chubby orange cat grabbed Zhen Huan's hand again.

Zhen Huan stood up naturally, and all the butterflies inside her cloak flew out.

Although it was night, the torches and snow made Yimei Garden as bright as day.

Red plum blossoms, white snow, butterflies, and beautiful women—such a beautiful scene is a feast for the eyes of Big Fat Orange.

Just then, a gust of cold wind swept in, and the chubby orange cat snapped out of its daze and took off its cloak.

Then it was draped over Zhen Huan's shoulders.

"If you pray for my well-being and then catch a cold, wouldn't that make me even more heartbroken?"

You smell so good, no wonder you attract butterflies even in this winter weather.
