Pampered Consort of the Fragrant Orchard

“Leng San, have our men been arranged on the inside?” Leng Er asked.

“They have already quietly infiltrated throughout last night and the previous night. Security is too stringent, so there aren’t many of them, but it should still be enough to delay them for a while.” Leng San answered.

After all, the entire palace was now filled with the Empress Dowager’s people, so their people were far fewer in number.

“As long as they can delay them. When the army enters, block them off,” Han Mingyi instructed calmly.

“How will we get in now?” Leng Er asked.

They had only just returned, so he and Leng Yi had briefly assessed the general situation, but didn’t know much about the details.

“We’ll walk in,” Han Mingyi said, striding towards the entrance of the palace.

Leng Yi and Leng Er thought that Han Mingyi was planning to fight his way in and quickly followed. However, as they were about to draw their swords, Han Mingyi walked in unimpeded, right in front of them.

The guards by the gate seemed as if they hadn’t seen them at all!

The entire way into the palace, Leng Yi and Leng Er felt a bit dazed. Could those people have been Master’s men? But they didn’t look like it!

Seeing Leng Yi and Leng Er’s confusion, Leng San smiled, “Did you guys not smell a fragrance when we passed through the palace gate?”

“There did seem to be a faint fragrance.” Leng Yi observed.

“That was Illusory Incense.”

“Illusory Incense? How did you guys get your hands on Illusory incense?” Leng Er asked in surprise.

Illusory Incense was a poison refined from a plant called the Illusion Flower. It could make an individual hallucinate for a short period of time, immersing them in an illusion and rendering them unable to see anything around them. So, because the guards had been caught in an illusion, they had no reaction to Han Mingyi walking directly by them.

However, this Illusion Flower was extremely rare, so Illusory Incense was accordingly even more rare. They previously had never seen Han Mingyi with this poison, and didn’t know where he had obtained it from.

“It was obtained by chance.” Han Mingyi said lightly. “Leng San, Leng Wu, you go contact our people. Everyone else, follow me to the imperial study.”

Taking advantage of the dark of the night, Leng San and Leng Wu left. Han Mingyi and the other few quietly approached the imperial study.

“Master, we’ll be able to live here from now on.”

Inside a consort’s residence, Fan Nuo’er and Wang Ze stood in the main hall. Looking at the extravagance of the hall, they were on the verge of drooling.

“As long as Prince Ren ascends to the throne tomorrow, you will be Consort. In time, you will be the Empress! Hahaha! At that time, Master will have to bow when he sees you.” After Wang Ze finished speaking, he even bowed to Fan Nuo’er.

“Nuo’er has all of this because of Master’s achievements.” Fan Nuo’er hurriedly went to support Wang Ze back up. “Without Master, Nuo’er would not be here today.”

“Nuo’er, how is it, do you like it here?” Han Minghong’s voice came from outside, followed by his bright yellow figure walking in.

“Greetings, Your Majesty.” Fan Nuo’er and Wang Ze curtsied and saluted Han Minghong as if he were Emperor.

“Nuo’er, quickly get up, be careful of this Emperor’s child.” Han Minghong stepped forward to help her up, just as if he was already an emperor. He looked at Fan Nuo’er and asked, “How is it, do you like it here?”

Since Fan Nuo’er had entered Han Minghong’s harem, with the help of Wang Ze’s tutelage, she had quickly captured Han Minghong’s heart. In just a short period of time, she had edged out all the other concubines, becoming the sole person in his favor for the past three or four months and even conceiving Han Minghong’s flesh and blood.

Although Han Minghong had always had concubines and side consorts, for some unknown reason, very few had ever conceived his child. Even if they had, they would miscarry in the first trimester. And so, up until now, he still didn’t have a child.

After Fan Nuo’er had become pregnant, her status in Prince Ren’s manor soared, and even the Empress Dowager didn’t object to giving her a consort position when the time came. Han Minghong was increasingly doting on her, giving her whatever she wanted.

Although he still thought his favorite was Du Xiaoli, it didn’t stop him from doting on other women.

So when Fan Nuo’er said she wanted to come to the palace today, he hesitated but agreed, calling in Wang Ze to make it easier to take care of her.
