Entrusted by others to be loyal, Concubine Jiang always remembered Xiaojiu's agreement with the Tao family in Northern Xinjiang.
Pulling Tao Shu out of the quagmire of competition for favor is difficult to say and easy to say.
There is nothing more shocking than the living examples around us. Even those who dote on someone like her will also be questioned, ignored and even accused by the emperor.
The favor of an emperor is like a fierce flame. If you think about it, you will be in danger of being burned.
After seeing what happened to her with her own eyes, Tao Shu could understand some things.
Tao Shu was silent for a long time, and then said: "The emperor is also an ordinary person. When the bottom line is touched, of course he will be angry and ask questions. You can't use this to test him."
Jiang Zhao shook his head and said, "The emperor holds supreme power, how can he be an ordinary person?"
The emperor was already the emperor. Having the supreme imperial power and being able to control the lives of others already meant that he was no longer an ordinary person. How could Tao Shu still see it this way?
"Besides, why am I testing him? What is there to test about human nature and bottom line?"
No one can withstand temptation. Concubine Jiang knew this very well. She just wanted Tao Shu to understand that the emperor's favor was all illusory and could disappear at any time.
She sighed and said, "But don't you think it's strange? The emperor has always been so fond of me, but he would be so suspicious of me and so angry because of a report or a letter?"
Tao Shu did find this strange, but she never thought to ask.
After all, this hurt Jiang Zhao's heart too much.
Since the other party said so, she asked directly: "Indeed, why is this?"
Of course she knew that the emperor's favor was unreliable. Needless to say, the love faded and the love faded. Even if she was still young and the family was still strong, just like Concubine Shu, she would suddenly fall from the clouds into the quagmire.
But this concubine should not be Jiang Zhao.
Jiang Zhao had been the only one doting on the harem for so many years, and the emperor loved him unparalleled. Even though the emperor was angry, he treated Jiang Zhao like this because of this...
If you think about it carefully, even if Jiang Zhao is favored by no one, once something happens, she will be no different from other concubines to the emperor.
This made her suddenly frightened. Even a favored person like Concubine Jiang was like this, so what would happen to the other concubines?
It will only be worse than Jiang Zhao.
She wanted to say something else, but seeing Concubine Jiang looking a little tired, she changed her words and said, "There are still differences. If it were me or someone else who had done this, they might have been sent to the Yeting Bureau."
However, the emperor fled in despair when facing Jiang Zhao, and only ordered Jiang Zhao not to leave Fuqing Palace.
To put it bluntly, the emperor was very kind to Jiang Zhao - of course this was probably the result of Jiang Zhao's careful calculation.
Concubine Jiang nodded and did not deny it: "You said so, and that's true."
Seeing that she was not very interested, Concubine Tao Xian asked puzzledly: "You deliberately did such a thing and deliberately angered the emperor. Are you really not afraid of falling out of favor?"
In her opinion, the emperor's favor is the most important. Jiang Zhao was granted the title of noble concubine, and His Highness Chang Ding's treatment was comparable to that of a prince.
Even better than the prince.
All this was because Jiang Zhao was favored.
How could anyone in this world think that the emperor's favor is too great?
When Jiang Zhao does this, if she is not careful, she and the people around her will fall into the abyss.
In Concubine Tao Xian's view, this was too risky and unnecessary.
What she was more worried about was that if the emperor was really determined to question Jiang Zhao, what would Jiang Zhao do?
People like Jiang Zhao, like the most delicate flowers, cannot bear the slightest bit of wind or rain.
Concubine Jiang saw the worry in the other person's eyes, and her mood finally lifted a little. She smiled and said, "I have been favored for more than ten years, so it would be nice to taste the feeling of falling out of favor. Besides..."
"Isn't there still Concubine Xian? Think about it, even if I am grounded by the Emperor, Concubine Xian will take care of me, right? I won't be short of food and clothing."
She was born into a wealthy family,
He has been favored since he was a child, and there are very few unpleasant things, let alone being wronged.
Except for being included in the palace, she is not allowed to make the decision.
Even after entering the palace, she was still the one who was favored by all, let alone after the emperor ascended the throne.
She is only a concubine after the queen, and she is also a merchant. Who can see her and not let out a cry of envy?
She knew that she was favored, and she also knew that the daughter she gave birth to was loved by the emperor. However, this kind of favor and love was too much, which always made her feel fearful.
She knew full well that in the end all of this would be lost.
But how to lose the law is something that can be planned.
For her, falling out of favor is not terrible as long as she doesn't lose her life.
What's more, Xiaojiu is about to enter the top three martial arts fields, and the Jiang family has also opened up a business route in Jiannan Road...
Everyone tied to her favor is already standing on the edge of the cliff. qδ
What she needs most now is to fall out of favor.
What she needs most is for the emperor to abandon her. Only in this way can she and Xiaojiu truly have no fear of their lives.
Just as the courtiers looked down upon her, she came from a merchant background and knew best what was best for herself.
Whether it was when she first entered the palace or now, she always felt that it was the stupidest and most uneconomical thing to completely pin her life on another person.
She also knew that what she could see clearly, other concubines in the palace might not be able to see clearly.
In the past, she had no contact with the concubines in the palace, and she didn't bother to care whether they saw clearly, but now that she was entrusted by Xiaojiu, she might give Concubine Tao Xian a hand.
It was all for the sake of his children, and it was not easy for Tao Jingyuan in Northern Xinjiang.
"..." Upon hearing this answer, Concubine Tao Xian was speechless for a while.
She wanted to sarcastically reply, but for some reason, she couldn't.
Although Jiang Zhao sounded like he was joking, she could sense a hint of sincerity in it.
She couldn't help but think of Jiang Zhao's question just now: Could it be that all these years of love are fake?
Is there a possibility that Jiang Zhao was not acting when he asked this question, but was speaking from his heart?
She opened her mouth to speak, looked at this unparalleled beauty, and nodded: "Okay, if the imperial concubine is really rejected by the emperor, I will never let you starve and freeze."
When Concubine Jiang heard this, she rolled her eyes and said with a smile, "Then thank you first, Concubine!"
At this time, Concubine Tao Xian thought Concubine Jiang was just joking.
Unexpectedly, the emperor would actually question Concubine Jiang!
That night, an edict came from the Zichen Palace, saying that the imperial concubine had offended Long Yan and deprived Concubine Jiang of her title of concubine and demoted Concubine Jiang to concubine Jiang!
As soon as these words came out, Concubine Tao Xian accidentally broke her favorite jade Ruyi in Jiayi Palace, and the harem felt like a sudden earthquake.
Concubine Jiang was demoted to concubine Jiang? How can this be?
"First update!"
