Transmigrated Canon Fodder, Please Calm Down! Chapter 444

Not long after the afternoon, the rewards from Xuanyuan Mo arrived.

At that time, Tang Guo was playing mahjong with Concubine Meng, Concubine Yin, and others.

Seeing the palace maids carrying the rewarded items over, Concubine Yin sourly remarked, “Our emperor truly dotes on the Imperial Concubine.”

“Sister Yin is jealous?” Honorable Lady He smiled, “If you’re in a bad mood, let me play for a while.”

Hearing this, Concubine Yin looked wary and spat, “Sister He, it’s not that I won’t let you, but your mahjong skills are really terrible. It’s right that I don’t let you play, so you don’t lose everything to the Imperial Concubine.”

Honorable Lady He was very disappointed, “In the end, in Sister Yin’s heart, mahjong is more important.”

Concubine Yin continuously rubbed the mahjong tiles in her hand, her lips curling slightly, “At least I can win in mahjong, there’s hope. Doing other things might not yield such results… and could even lead to frustration.”

Everyone in the room understood what the “other things” were.

Having spent a long time with the Imperial Concubine, they increasingly felt that the emperor wasn’t that attractive compared to the fun things in the Imperial Concubine’s hands.

Instead of striving for favor, it was better to treat themselves well.

Playing mahjong every day, eating beauty porridge, applying the beauty masks taught by the Imperial Concubine, and returning to the palace in a good mood was much more interesting than before.

Besides playing mahjong, they also loved the books at the Imperial Concubine’s place, finding them truly amusing.

The concubines who couldn’t get to the table would read in the side hall. Having read many interesting books, they felt that fighting over a rotten cucumber was indeed meaningless.

“Forget it, forget it, I’ll go read in the side hall. I probably won’t get a turn today.” Honorable Lady He regretfully stood up, supported by a palace maid to the side hall. “I only read half of that book ‘Palace Scheming is Inferior to Beauty Care’, it’s really interesting, Kong Chai, go find it.”

“I finished that book a long time ago.” Concubine Meng giggled, shuffling tiles as she spoke, “Recently, I’m reading ‘The Buddhist Palace Concubine’s Cuisine’, it has many recipes, and I’ve been having the cook try them one by one. The taste is quite good.”

“When the cook gets proficient, I’ll send some to the Imperial Concubine Sister another day.”

Tang Guo smiled while sipping tea, “Alright.”

She communicated with the system, “Find more similar books for them.”

[Understood, host.]

The system internally clicked its tongue. Xuanyuan Mo, that green hat king, probably didn’t know that his concubines were gradually forgetting him.

Look at these first-class beauties, all day long they just want to read books, play mahjong, enjoy gourmet food, and beauty care. Their schedules were packed, leaving no time to compete for favor.

Xuanyuan Mo was clueless, thinking these concubines were suffering at Tang Guo’s place.

Actually, he didn’t know that these concubines left with red eyes not because Tang Guo bullied them, but because they lost at mahjong.

The money they had painstakingly won was lost in just two rounds, and they ended up deeply in debt. There were few who wouldn’t leave with red eyes.

Or it could be because they were fighting to read a book and left feeling frustrated after losing the scramble, which was normal.

Tang Guo glanced at the tray beside her and, after finishing a round, said, “Yun Consort, take my place. I want to see what the emperor has sent.”

Yun Consort was overjoyed and nodded quickly. She wasn’t curious about the rewards, having waited so long, she just wanted to play a few rounds. Having watched for a long time, her hands were itching to play.
