I insist

Chapter 278: Regaining Favor

Whenever the emperor had free time, he would spend it with Consort Li, leaving Consort Lin alone in the palace, longing to see the emperor every day and feeling resentful.

"Someone, go and fetch Song Miqiu from the Imperial Hospital for me!"

Looking at the palace maid, Consort Lin's tone was extremely unfriendly. The palace maid trembled and ran towards the door, afraid that if she was delayed, she would be scolded by Consort Lin again.

Lin Fei is currently looking for a place to vent her anger, and she doesn't want to run into the line of fire.

The palace maid secretly sympathized with Song Miqiu, knowing that she would surely be subjected to Lin Fei's abuse upon her arrival.

Song Miqiu was about to lie down and take a nap when a palace maid hurriedly knocked on her door.

"Imperial Physician Song, Consort Lin requests your presence," the palace maid said softly.

Song Miqiu looked utterly helpless; who knew what kind of trouble this Consort Lin would cause this time?

I knew nothing good had ever happened to me in the past.

"understood."

After responding, Song Miqiu opened the door and followed the palace maid to Consort Lin's palace.

Consort Lin lay on the couch, looking at Song Miqiu with a gloomy expression.

Upon seeing this expression, Song Miqiu knew that Consort Lin was definitely looking for trouble.

"You good-for-nothing Song Miqiu, do you even know how long it's been since the Emperor summoned me!"

Consort Lin stood up angrily and pointed at Song Miqiu.

Song Miqiu thought to himself, "It's all for the emperor again. He really goes to great lengths for the emperor."

"Your Majesty, do not worry, I have a solution."

In order to appease Consort Lin, Song Miqiu had no choice but to quell Consort Lin's anger first.

"What can you do?"

Upon hearing that Song Miqiu had a solution, Consort Lin's anger subsided considerably. Thinking that Song Miqiu had a way to see the Emperor, she stopped making trouble.

Song Miqiu thought for a moment.

Consort Lin was quite beautiful, so the Emperor's refusal to come was simply a matter of men's tendency to tire of the old and crave the new.

"Your Majesty, you always dress up beautifully when you meet the Emperor. This time, dress simply, as if it were the first time you met him. If the Emperor sees you as you were before, he will surely feel guilty."

Song Miqiu told Consort Lin about the plan she had come up with.

Lin Fei looked at Song Miqiu with some doubt, and was reluctant to write it down, thinking that it could be done so simply.

"Are you sure this will work?"

Consort Lin looked at Song Miqiu with some disbelief, sat down on the stool, and took a sip of the tea on the table while pondering.

"Whether it works or not, Your Majesty can give it a try."

It's common for men to be fickle and easily bored, and Song Miqiu believed that this was definitely possible.

"Alright, I'll give it a try first. If it doesn't work, you'll be in for a world of hurt."

Consort Lin spoke coldly to Song Miqiu in a harsh tone.

"Your Majesty, if this does not work, then punish me."

Song Miqiu sighed; this Consort Lin was not easy to serve.

Consort Lin realized she shouldn't have been so harsh on Song Miqiu, so she softened her tone and said, "If His Majesty really notices me, you will naturally receive your due rewards."

Consort Lin, hoping to gain the Emperor's favor, naturally became much more accommodating.

Then, a palace maid presented dazzling jewels to Song Miqiu, who was surprised that Consort Lin was so generous.

"Let's go!"

Consort Lin waved her hand, instructing the palace maid to give the items to Song Miqiu.

The palace maid immediately understood.

Song Miqiu immediately took the things, eager to leave this place as soon as possible.

The women in the palace are all eccentric; they have plenty of good food and fun, yet they insist on staying with one man.

Song Miqiu quickened her pace and hurried back to her residence.

Night fell, and a gentle breeze was blowing.

Consort Lin had already found out that the Emperor would definitely pass by here. Consort Lin was dressed in simple plain clothes. The gentle breeze made the fabric of her clothes flutter in the wind, and the strands of hair at her temples were blown in front of her.

Her evening attire was too simple; she wore no makeup. In addition, Consort Lin was naturally beautiful, and the moonlight bathed her, making her an exceptionally attractive beauty.

The emperor was just passing by when he saw this scene and was immediately flustered.

Take a closer look.

"Isn't this Consort Lin?"

The Emperor felt a surge of warmth in his heart. When he first met Consort Lin, she was just like that, so delicate and fragile that he wanted to protect her. It had been so long since he had seen her.

"Yes, my beloved concubine?"

The emperor hurried toward Consort Lin.

Consort Lin was overjoyed when she heard the Emperor's voice.

Thinking of Song Miqiu's words, he quickly calmed himself down and lowered his voice: "Your Majesty."

The voice was so sweet and soothing, which made the emperor even happier.

"My beloved concubine, it has been so long since I've seen you. Is it my fault?"

The emperor stepped forward.

Consort Lin bowed slightly, looking pitiful upon seeing the palace.

"I am already overjoyed to meet Your Majesty here. I only hope that Your Majesty will be blessed with great fortune and that the country will be peaceful and prosperous. How could I dare to be angry with Your Majesty?"

Consort Lin spoke tactfully and generously.

Upon hearing this, the emperor was overjoyed.

"Consort Lin is so sensible. I have indeed neglected you during this time. Don't worry, I will make it up to you."

How could Consort Lin not understand the implication?

"Your Majesty, I am already extremely fortunate to have Your Majesty's favor. How could I possibly monopolize Your Majesty's love? Besides, Consort Li is more beautiful than me."

Consort Lin leaned sweetly against the Emperor's chest.

Upon hearing Consort Lin's words, the Emperor felt even more that Consort Lin was sensible.

Ultimately, she hadn't done well. Because of Consort Li, she neglected Consort Lin. No matter how beautiful Consort Li was, she wasn't as sensible as Consort Lin.

The Emperor held Consort Lin even tighter.

Consort Lin was overjoyed.

It seems that Song Miqiu's method was quite effective.

That night, the emperor stayed with Consort Lin. Consort Lin thought that Song Miqiu was indeed quite capable, and it seemed that this person should be kept around.

During this period, the emperor, thanks to Consort Lin's understanding nature, came to spend the night at her place every day.

Everyone in the palace knew that Consort Lin had once again gained the emperor's favor.

As the emperor visited more frequently, Consort Lin was no longer satisfied. In order to secure her position in the harem, she naturally conceived a child during the period of his favor.

After all, having a child is essential for security. Consort Li was already pregnant, but her own belly wasn't showing any signs of pregnancy, which made Consort Lin feel disappointed again.

How can I have a child? Consort Lin stroked her hair and fell into deep thought.

Looking at herself in the mirror, she suddenly thought of Song Miqiu again, and her gaze immediately darkened.

"Someone, go and summon Song Miqiu to me."

After much thought, Consort Lin realized that only Song Miqiu could help her.

The palace maid ran off to find Song Miqiu, filled with fear and trepidation.

Song Miqiu was looking through medical books when she saw the familiar palace maid from last time, and naturally she knew who she was.

This time, it was Consort Lin who sent someone to look for her again.

She felt disgusted, but she didn't show it on her face.

"Imperial Physician Song, Imperial Physician Song." This time, the palace maid's tone was less urgent than before, and rather sympathetic. "Consort Lin requests your presence."

"You may go back now, I will be there shortly." Song Miqiu said helplessly.

He immediately put down his medical book and picked up his medicine box; in the palace, one truly has no choice but to follow one's own will.
