The virtuous concubine raised her head and looked at the emperor, her lifeless eyes shining brightly, "How could it be? Your Majesty is just too busy. The previous government affairs are important, so I am willing to wait."
His Majesty held up the concubine's chin, his smiling eyes filled with meaning, "If time were not limited, I would really like to pamper you again!"
"The days are long, and we have plenty of time." Concubine Xian shyly leaned her head on the emperor's shoulder, then raised her head and said, "Your Majesty, I thought that I had moved into Chenghua Palace, and wanted to invite the sisters in the palace to sit there. Sit down and celebrate my concubine, may your majesty allow it?"
The emperor immediately nodded and said with a smile: "What do you think it is? If you want to entertain the Sixth Palace, you can do whatever you want. Everyone in the palace will go then."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" The wise concubine smiled, and then became hesitant.
When His Majesty saw this, he immediately asked her what was wrong, and the wise concubine said: "It's okay with the others, but Concubine Ning... Isn't Sister Ning Concubine not coming? Half a month ago, I bumped into her in the newly built garden. , she won’t be angry anymore, I am really ignorant.”
As she said this, Xianbi's eyes turned red and she looked aggrieved.
His Majesty immediately began to feel distressed, "No, Concubine Ning is very knowledgeable and will not care about you. She is usually a bit domineering. If I hadn't looked at Shen'er's face, I would definitely I won’t tolerate it like this!”
As soon as the Emperor mentioned Mo Zeshen, the virtuous concubine's eyes suddenly became filled with tenderness, and His Majesty's words came to her ears again, "I don't know what's going on. Shen'er is so sensible, why would he fall in love with such a girl? It's really a shame." He is holding us back. Shen'er is sensible, and Shen's daughter-in-law is even more sensible. This is what a loving couple looks like, even I envy them."
Concubine Xian couldn't help laughing, "What your Majesty said is true. Princess Chen is really a wonderful person. She even made the facial cream for me personally, and I used it very well. Such a good daughter-in-law was hand-picked by Concubine Ning." , although she has many shortcomings, her vision is extraordinary."
The emperor felt very pleased when he saw the virtuous concubine praising Concubine Ning in various ways. He nodded, "You have always been sensible and can speak well. If everyone in the harem is as obedient and sensible as you, then the queen will have much less worries." Yes. But you are right, Princess Chen’s daughter-in-law is a good choice, but the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have a feud, and neither one pays attention to the other, which makes me a little worried. "
The emperor actually didn't know that mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were natural enemies, but there were some things that he didn't want to get involved with, let alone seeing Concubine Ning and Lu Qingtang frozen like this. Now that I happen to have a virtuous concubine by my side, why not let her wade through this muddy water.
If it succeeds, he will just give some reward to the virtuous concubine.
If it fails, no one will target him. The most they will do is scold the virtuous concubine for being pampered. When the time comes, he will come forward to defend the virtuous concubine and make the virtuous concubine rely on him even more.
Thinking of this, the emperor stopped talking and waited for the wise concubine to think about it by herself.
Soon the concubine Xian began to laugh, "Your Majesty, how about this? When I hold a banquet, I will give the facial hair that Princess Chen gave me to Sister Ning. Then I will tell my sister that Princess Chen borrowed it from me." How about giving my concubine's hand to her?"
The emperor nodded and smiled with satisfaction, "Okay, just do as my concubine said!"
Accompanied by the swaying sedan chair, Xianbi quickly returned to Chenghua Palace.
After taking a bath, the wise concubine dismissed the maid in the room. She opened the cabinet, took out a cardboard box, and took out a white pill.
Lu Qingtang told her that this can be used as a contraceptive, and if you take one pill afterwards, it will last for three days.
She is no longer suitable for childbearing at this age. If she becomes pregnant, she may die, and she can only rely on this emergency contraceptive pill to control it.
Lying on the bed, Concubine Xian didn't fall asleep for a long time. She got up and picked up the two hydrangeas in the cabinet, and her eyes began to get wet.
If it weren't for her son, she would still be fawning over someone she loved at such an age. She was really unwilling to do so.
She would never forget the look in His Majesty's eyes when he saw her when she "gave birth" to the dead baby. If eyes could kill, then His Majesty's eyes would kill you with a thousand knives.
It is said that one day brings a hundred days of kindness to a couple, but how can the royal family be so kind? In the words of others, she was lucky that she was not killed to defend the imperial power.
Now, she drags this body around just to make Concubine Ning have a hard time.
It was she who caused her to live like a walking zombie all these years, and it was she who caused her flesh and blood to be separated. She wanted Concubine Ning to return all of this!
On the third day, Chenghua Palace sent an invitation to Qingquan Palace.
Seven days later, Chenghua Palace will hold a housewarming banquet, and Concubine Ning is invited to come and enjoy it together.
Concubine Ning took the invitation without even looking at it, threw it to the ground, and said with a contemptuous smile: "You are just a temporary favor, so you dare to show off your power in front of me."
Mo Xinyuan came over and stepped on the invitation as if nothing had happened, "Don't be angry, concubine, the women in this harem are like flowers. It blooms today and fails tomorrow. It's not surprising at all. But, if you don't go , someone will definitely say that you are jealous of her."
"Am I jealous of her?" Concubine Ning sneered, "She probably doesn't know that she has a son all her life, right? How dare she be so arrogant in front of me!"
Mo Xinyuan stretched out her hand to squeeze Concubine Ning's shoulders, "It's a pity, sister. If grandma hadn't missed her, I would have been married by now."
Concubine Ning's eyes turned red at the mention of the baby who died in infancy before she could even open her eyes.
It was just that her mother's family was temporarily out of power, and these nannies and nannies made all kinds of difficulties, and even accidentally threw her daughter to death.
Originally, she had no intention of changing the child at the beginning, but when the child died, His Majesty was probably going to be angry. His Majesty did not have many children at that time. It was not until she became pregnant with the then Wang Cairen that her life became easier.
In order to cover up her sins and make herself comfortable, Concubine Ning cruelly exchanged her dead baby for Wang Cairen's son, and Mo Zeshen became her child.
The dead baby also caused Wang Cairen's status to plummet. Although his status remained unchanged, his life was completely different. Of course, these were not what Concubine Ning could consider, and she never expected that Wang Cairen would know that the baby girl was not her own as soon as he saw it.
"Other people's children are other people's. They are white-eyed wolves who have not been raised well. Although I am not as attentive to Mo Zeshen as I am to Qing'er, haven't I raised him up? But as for him, he completely ignores the affection between mother and child. He is just a bastard. Damn you white-eyed wolf!" Concubine Ning said viciously, "Look at his wife, who was also hand-picked by me, but she helped outsiders deal with me. She is just like a bunch of white-eyed wolf!"
Mo Xinyuan stretched out her hand to cheer Concubine Ning, "Don't be angry, concubine, just treat them as dead. I heard that Princess Chen is not only on good terms with Concubine Shu, but also with this newly favored concubine Wang Xian. It's really She knows how to flatter those above and bully those below, this Princess Chen is really scheming."
After hearing Mo Xinyuan's words, Concubine Ning couldn't help but look at her, her eyes gleaming with fear.
