The night grew deeper, and the Emperor's thoughts were like the twinkling stars in the night sky, intertwining brightness and dimness. In the harem of the Zhou Dynasty, this seemingly tranquil place was filled with hidden currents, with every corner hiding unknown secrets. 0
 
A cold light flickered in Han Yu's eyes: "Although Su Wanrong is Su Wanyi's sister, every step she takes seems to tread on my heart. Despite her medical skills, I cannot allow her to overstep her bounds in the harem." 0
 
 
Physician Fu lowered his head in thought and slowly spoke, "Your Majesty, Su Wanrong is indeed exceptionally intelligent, but she always remembers the grace of the dragon in her actions in the harem. Moreover, her care for the Empress may simply be out of sisterly affection." 0
 
Han Yu pondered, "Sisterly affection... I once believed in it as well. However, I must consider the overall stability of the harem. I have also heard of Su Wanyi's weakness. In the past three years, although the Job's tears she consumed have a cold nature, I have also secretly instructed her." 0
 
 
Physician Fu looked up in surprise, then immediately lowered his head, his expression difficult to read. 0
 
Han Yu continued, "Don't be nervous, Physician Fu. I trust you. Since the tragedy of Chen Feng'er Queen, I have been unable to let go. Su Wanyi, as the instigator, her fate was already sealed. I do not want the harem to repeat the same mistakes, but I also cannot allow anyone to challenge my authority." 0
 
 
Physician Fu replied softly, "Your Majesty's far-sightedness and wisdom are deeply admired by me. I will closely monitor every change in the harem and report to Your Majesty." 0
 
Han Yu stood up, his gaze like the deep night sky, "This harem must be mine. Su Wanrong and Su Wanyi are just pawns. I will personally control this chess game and ensure that everything is within my grasp." 0
 
 
Physician Fu nodded with deep respect, "Your Majesty is wise, I will do my utmost to assist." 0
 
As the night deepened, the doors of the study slowly closed, concealing the conspiracies and power struggles within. 0
 
 
The harem of the Zhou Dynasty remains a seemingly tranquil but turbulent world, where every character plays their role in the vortex of power, whether as a ruler or a pawn. 0
 
 
In the palace of the Zhou Dynasty, with the warm spring breeze and the blooming flowers, the atmosphere became complex and tense due to the joyful news of Lady Chu Fang'er. 0
 
Chu Fang'er, a third-ranked beauty whose appearance closely resembled the late empress, is expecting the heir to the throne, quietly causing a stir in the harem. 0
 
 
One day, Su Wanrong took a walk in the imperial garden, pondering repeatedly about the Emperor's special attention to Chu Fang'er and her own situation. 0
 
Her steps came to a halt in front of a quiet pavilion, where she gazed alone at the reflection on the lake, with a hint of confusion and contemplation in her eyes. 0
 
 
At this moment, Xiao Yan approached quietly and saw the master's melancholic expression. She asked softly, "Master, are you worried about Lady Chu Fang'er?" 0
 
Su Wanrong sighed softly and nodded, "Yes, Xiao Yan. Ever since Chu Fang'er became pregnant, I have noticed a change in the Emperor's attitude. His unquestionable favoritism towards her will undoubtedly disrupt the balance in the harem, which worries me." 0
 
 
Xiao Yan The eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she said in a low voice, "Master, as the lord of the harem, the emperor has always valued your opinions and decisions." 0
 
Su Wanrong Shook her head slightly, with a pensive look in her eyes, "The emperor's thoughts are unfathomable. Although he appreciates me, in the end, I am just in charge of the affairs of the six palaces. The emperor's heart may have long belonged to someone else." 0
 
 
At this moment, a senior imperial physician hurried into the palace and greeted Su Wanrong with a bow: "Second-rank noble consort, the Emperor has issued an edict summoning you to attend to Lady Chu Fang'er and ensure the safety of her pregnancy." 0
 
Su Wanrong was intrigued and asked, "I will comply with the edict. May I ask the physician if the Emperor's special concern for Lady Chu Fang'er is due to her carrying the imperial heir?" 0
 
 
The imperial physician considered for a moment and replied in a low voice, "In response to Empress Second-rank's words, His Majesty does indeed attach great importance to Consort Chu Fang'er's pregnancy. It seems that His Majesty hopes to ensure the smooth birth of the heir through this pregnancy." 0
 
Su Wanrong understood in her heart that the Emperor's intention was not just to have a child, but also to consolidate his power and influence through this child. 0
 
 
Her face revealed a faint smile, but it was bitter. "Physician, you have worked hard. Go back and tell the emperor that I will do my best to ensure the stability of the harem." 0
 
The physician nodded, leaving behind a look of relief, and then hurriedly left to carry out the emperor's orders. 0
 
 
Su Wanrong looked at the back of the imperial physician, her thoughts surging like a river. She knew deep down that although she held the position of a Second-rank concubine in charge of the affairs of the six palaces, in the heart of Emperor Han Yu, she might just be a pawn, a piece used to maintain the balance of the harem. 0
 
Returning to her own palace, Su Wanrong sat quietly by the window, gazing at the moonlight outside, her thoughts tangled. She recalled her journey of rebirth, from a fourth-rank Yonghua to a Second-rank concubine in charge of the affairs of the six palaces, every step taken as if walking on thin ice. Now, she must face even more complex situations - the emperor's thoughts, the power struggles within the harem, and her own future. 0
 
 
At this moment, Xiao Yan gently knocked on the door and entered, seeing the master silently gazing at the moonlight. Unable to bear it, she softly said, "Master, you should pay more attention to rest. The affairs of the harem are complicated, but they should not be borne by you alone." 0
 
Su Wanrong turned around and showed a faint smile to Xiao Yan, "You are right, Xiao Yan. But in this harem, who can truly relax? Even the emperor has his difficulties and worries." 0
 
 
Xiao Yan lowered her head, her eyes revealing worry and respect: "Master, no matter what, your health is the most important. I will be by your side, no matter what happens, I will support you." 0
 
Su Wanrong felt a warmth in his heart, reaching out to gently pat Xiao Yan's shoulder: "Thank you, Xiao Yan. With you by my side, I am already content. No matter what the future holds, we must walk forward with strength." 0
 
 
At this moment, there were faint footsteps outside the palace, and a palace maid hurriedly came to report: "Second-rank noble lady, there's an urgent matter! Lady Chu Fang'er suddenly fell ill, and the emperor has ordered people to search for you everywhere." 0
 
Upon hearing this, Su Wanrong's expression changed, and she immediately got up, saying, "Take me to see her." 0
