Chapter 123 Min Yiyi: "How dare you talk back. Who gave you the confidence to be so arrogant? Is it because the emperor likes your soup?" Concubine Chun smiled slightly but said nothing. Min Yiyi: "How about this, someone, go and ask the emperor to come over." "Yes." The little palace maid went. Not long after, Di Hanxin came over, and the concubines performed the etiquette of monarch and subject to him. Di Hanxin sat in the main seat and asked Min Yiyi with a cold face: "The queen asked me to come here, what's the matter?" Min Yiyi: "Look, Qing'er, Concubine Chun hit her head with a teacup. I fined Concubine Chun a monthly salary, but she refused to accept it. I don't know if this is some kind of privilege given to her by the emperor? Please give me some advice, Your Majesty." Di Hanxin stared at her for a while: "You called me here just to ask this?" Min Yiyi blinked a few times: "...There is something else, but I need to talk to the emperor alone." Di Hanxin turned to look at Concubine Chun: "Concubine Chun, why did you smash that girl's head?"
Concubine Chun knelt down and argued: "I was scalded by the tea and I lost my grip and hit her. It was not intentional." She started to complain directly: "It is the Queen who not only asked Concubine Rou to help a servant apply medicine, but also insisted on punishing me. What kind of ethics of respect and inferiority is this?" Min Yiyi: "You made the auspicious land of Kunhua Palace bleed. The punishment I gave you is too light. You should be dragged out and beaten with thirty boards!" "Your Majesty!" Concubine Chun pulled the hem of Di Hanxin's clothes and said with a wronged look on her face, "I thought you would like to drink the soup I made yesterday, so I got up early in the morning and asked people to prepare the ingredients for the soup, so I came a little late. The Empress was unhappy and deliberately made trouble for me. I hope Your Majesty will understand!" Di Hanxin moved his knees, pulled the clothes out of her hands, and said, "Concubine Chun, first you were late in paying respects to the Queen, then you smashed the head of the maid next to the Queen, and you still refuse to obey the Queen's discipline. What? Are you going to rebel?" Concubine Chun's face changed drastically, and she said hurriedly: "How is it possible! Your concubine...your concubine..." "Everyone, please leave." Emperor Hanxin stood up and shook his sleeves. He looked handsome and cold, and said, "The Queen is the master of the harem. From now on, these matters will be handled directly by the Queen. There is no need to look for me! Do you think I have nothing to do?" After these words were spoken, the concubines all looked unhappy. Min Yiyi: "Yes, I obey your orders! From now on, I will fulfill my duties as the queen, manage the harem well, and not let the emperor worry!" Di Hanxin said “hmm”. After everyone left, Di Hanxin looked at Min Yiyi with a cold face: "Five whole days!" She didn't go to see him for five whole days! Min Yiyi was unhappy and said sarcastically, "I have been exhausted and worried for the past five days. The emperor is enjoying himself, drinking soup here and eating meat there." "You're worrying about me?" Di Hanxin asked her, "I'm completely honest with you, but you're worrying about me? What's your shameful thing? Why can't you tell me the truth?" Min Yiyi asked him, "Then Your Majesty, please tell me the truth. Did Jia Yuanchun tell you that she was reborn?" Di Hanxin: "You really know everything!" "It seems that the emperor believes her." Min Yiyi said, "Otherwise, you can't do this to me." Emperor Hanxin: "Then tell me, is what she said true?" Min Yiyi: "Your Majesty, we can only go from today to tomorrow. If we say we can go from today to yesterday, who would believe it?" Emperor Hanxin: "So she is deceiving me? But——"
"Your Majesty!" Min Yiyi interrupted him, "If one day you went back to the past and decided to change your mother's fate, and you successfully prevented her from entering the palace, do you think you would still exist in this world?" Emperor Hanxin: "...Logically speaking, there shouldn't be any. But if I wasn't there, how could I go back and change the past?" Min Yiyi said: "A flower is a world, a leaf is a bodhi tree. There are so many mysteries in the world, and what we know is just the tip of the iceberg. I am fortunate to have a certain opportunity, and I may know a little more than the emperor in this regard. But it is only a little bit, I only know the appearance but not the essence. I only know that if such a thing really happened, perhaps at the moment you change history, you will disappear." Emperor Hanxin: "What do you want to say? I don't understand." Min Yiyi said: "I cannot tell others about this opportunity. Otherwise, I might die. My death is not a pity, but my life is closely related to the emperor, so I cannot tell anyone." Di Hanxin narrowed his eyes slightly: "So you are also a reborn person?" Min Yiyi shook her head: "I have some similarities with her, but I am not a reborn person." Di Hanxin: "Who are you?" Min Yiyi shook her head: "I dare not say it. I am afraid of death, and even more afraid... that I will never see you again." Emperor Hanxin looked at her: "...Is there really such a mysterious thing in this world? I also want to experience it, how can I do it?" Min Yiyi: "How can a person be capable of this? I am also between life and death. I don't know what divine secret has been triggered to give me this opportunity." Emperor Hanxin looked at her for a long time and said, "Is it that period of confinement that I punished you with?"
