The next day, the news of Liao Qing Qing sleeping in Zhengqian Palace spread through the imperial harem.

What kind of palace is Zhengqian Palace?

It is the palace where Emperor Jing Li resides.

Ever since Emperor Jing Li ascended to the throne, no imperial concubine had ever spent the night in Zhengqian Palace.

Liao Qing Qing is the first person!

Although the entire harem knew that Liao Qing Qing was Emperor Jing Li's favourite, this "favourite" didn't fade with time. Instead, he became increasingly fond of her.

Some of the imperial concubines lamented Liao Qing Qing's good fortune. Some were jealous, some were sad, and some were unrelenting.

Those would be Noble Consort Liang and Worthy Consort.

The two previously framed Liao Qing Qing's father, Liao Shi Wen. Under Emperor Jing Li's hammering, they contacted their respective families and tried their best to clear Liao Shi Wen's name. The two families secretly kowtowed until their heads were injured and gave up some power and financial resources in their hands, hoping that Emperor Jing Li would forgive Noble Consort Liang and Worthy Consort for being insensible.

It was true that Emperor Jing Li did not touch Noble Consort Liang and Worthy Consort. However, he did not pay any attention to them either.

They had no power now and only had the title of imperial concubines.

Presently, they became increasingly angrier when they heard that Liao Qing Qing was becoming more and more favoured by Emperor Jing Li. Moreover, the potatoes that Liao Qing Qing had planted became popular among the imperial officials, and the Emperor took the opportunity to propose the establishment of Liao Qing Qing as the Empress.

Establishing Liao Qing Qing as the Empress?

Noble Consort Liang and Worthy Consort were horrified when they received the news.

Noble Consort Liang even smashed a jade vase.

Her hatred for Liao Qing Qing reached an all-time high.

And at this moment, Liao Qing Qing also heard about the "establishment of the Empress".

Establishing an Empress was different from being promoted. The latter required the Emperor to do it himself, while the former had to be approved by most of the imperial officials.

After all, the Empress is the mother of the country.

Hence, it was not unusual for Liao Qing Qing to hear about the imperial subjects arguing about the establishment of the Empress.

When she looked at Emperor Jing Li, she found that Emperor Jing Li was also relaxed and told Liao Qing Qing how the imperial subjects were arguing in the imperial court. When he narrated the climax of the imperial subject's dispute, he even laughed out loud.

"...." Liao Qing Qing said, "Your Majesty, aren't you angry?"

Emperor Jing Li replied, "Why should I be angry? It is good to have some conflicts between the imperial subjects. It will be problematic if they are so harmonious."

Liao Qing Qing didn't know anything about politics, but she thought that the sight of each of them expressing their own opinions was good.

"So, Qing Qing, don't be in a hurry." Emperor Jing Li said, "Anyway, no matter how much they argue, they will all listen to me in the end."

Liao Qing Qing, "....."

"I will ask the Directorate of Astronomy to choose a good day to perform the ceremony of the crowning of the Empress. But I still felt a little regretful...."
