Chapter 771 The Palace Maid's Revenge 3
Chapter 771 The Palace Maid's Revenge 3
"Boom!"
As soon as the queen returned to her palace, she smashed two vases fiercely: "Bitch, bitch, relying on the emperor's favor, the bitch Jiang Chunxi really doesn't take me, the queen, seriously."
"Your Highness, calm down," said Tian Ma, the empress's trusted nanny and her wet nurse, with concern. "If you get yourself mad over a lowly maid, then that lowly maid won't benefit you, right?"
"Let me tell you! You shouldn't have come up with such an idea. You clearly know what the emperor thinks of that slave, and you still want the emperor to grant her a marriage with Doctor Zhu. Isn't this obviously going against the emperor and making him angry?"
"Besides, she is just a woman. Even if she looks like a fairy, the emperor is unlikely to be so crazy as to depose the queen. You don't need to take that slave seriously at all."
There are so many women in the harem, it's impossible to be on guard against them. After all, as an emperor, the thing he has the most is beauties. Whether it's the maids in the palace or the beauty pageant held every three years, there are plenty of beauties for the emperor to choose from.
So Nanny Tian really couldn't understand why the Queen was so wary of Jiang Chunxi.
"Mammy, you don't understand," the queen said bitterly, "I can ignore the fact that the emperor favors other women, but I will never allow other women to occupy the emperor's heart."
"What's more, that slave girl not only won the emperor's heart, but the queen mother also loved her very much. If that slave girl gave birth to a child in the future, there would be endless troubles."
Although she has no children yet, the queen has her eyes set on the throne and will never give it up to anyone else.
Of course, the most important thing is that the Queen loves the Emperor deeply. She can tolerate the Emperor having countless women, but she cannot allow any woman to enter the Emperor's heart. That's why she regards Jiang Chunxi as a serious threat and wishes to get rid of her lowly maid as soon as possible.
"But the emperor obviously favors that slave girl. Even if the queen can't tolerate that slave girl, what can she do?" Nanny Tian said, "I think the most important thing for the queen right now is to have a child as soon as possible. Otherwise, even if the queen gets rid of that slave girl, it might just be a waste of money."
"After all, many of the concubines in the harem have long disliked that slave girl and wish to get rid of her. If Your Majesty gets rid of that slave girl, wouldn't others applaud and reap the benefits?"
"Your words give me an idea," the queen sat down on the couch in deep thought, "Since there is no way to marry that slave, why can't I kill someone with a borrowed knife? Concubine Jin seems to be a little bit arrogant recently because of her pregnancy."
"Oh!" The Queen sneered, "She relied on her pregnancy to pay her respects to me, and even dared to mock me for being infertile. I originally wanted to get rid of the baby in her belly, but now it seems better to let Concubine Jin deal with that bitch, killing two birds with one stone."
Concubine Jin was a princess from a small foreign country. She was said to be here for marriage, but in fact she was just a tribute.
But Concubine Jin had no awareness of being a tribute. She thought very highly of herself and felt that her birth was extremely noble and that being a small concubine was an injustice to her.
Concubine Jin had only been in the palace for half a year. When she first entered the palace, she was only given the title of noble lady. She was given the title of Concubine Jin after she became pregnant. Since she was given the title of concubine after she became pregnant, Concubine Jin has become even more arrogant and dared to openly challenge her, the queen.
It's not that the queen can't tolerate others having children. After all, she doesn't have any children yet. If she can't tolerate others getting pregnant and having children, and there are no cries of children in the harem, then everyone will probably be suspicious of her as the queen.
Therefore, over the years, the queen would not take any action against any pregnant concubine in the harem as long as they did not dare to challenge her by taking advantage of their pregnancy.
Over the years, the Queen had only taken action against two concubines who were ignorant of the consequences, causing them to have miscarriages. When Concubine Jin dared to provoke her as the Queen during her visit to pay her respects, the Queen had already arranged to have the baby in her belly aborted.
"But Concubine Jin is very stupid," Nanny Tian frowned and said, "I'm afraid..."
"Stupidity also has its advantages," the queen said coldly, "because stupid people do things without considering the consequences."
"Pass the message down and have someone say some more words to stir up trouble in front of Concubine Jin. I believe Concubine Jin will definitely give me a surprise."
The people in Concubine Jin's palace were naturally spies planted by the Queen, and that spy was quite trusted by Concubine Jin and was a young eunuch beside her.
At the same time, Jiang Chunxi was admiring the flowers in the imperial garden, accompanied by two eunuchs and two palace maids.
In the original owner's previous life, her food and drink were better than those of ordinary concubines.
And if it was Jiang Chunxi, it would be even more incredible.
You could say that! Jiang Chunxi's food and daily necessities were better than those of the Empress. The Emperor would always give her the first thing he had. Whenever the Imperial Household Department received any good things as tribute, whether they were food or daily necessities, they would always give them to Jiang Chunxi first.
As for the servants, they were even more indispensable. The people serving Jiang Chunxi were as many as the main concubines in a palace.
I have to say here, didn't the original owner blame the emperor? After all, if the emperor hadn't granted the marriage, the original owner wouldn't have married Doctor Zhu.
That’s not true. In the original owner’s previous life, the emperor asked for the original owner’s opinion. After the original owner nodded in agreement, the emperor issued an imperial decree to grant the marriage and even prepared a generous dowry for the original owner.
As for whether it would be too unfair for the original owner to marry a royal physician, this question naturally did not exist. After all, the original owner was just a palace maid. No matter how different she was in the eyes of the emperor and the empress dowager, it could not change her origin.
If the original owner were really to be married to a wealthy family, that would be harmful to her, so marrying a royal physician was not really a downgrade for her.
"Isn't this Miss Chunchun?" Just then, Concubine Wang came over holding the child.
The child in Concubine Wang's arms is her daughter, who is only five months old.
Concubine Wang was the daughter of a general. Her father was a general with military power. She was conferred the title of concubine and brought into the palace three months after the emperor and the empress got married. So Concubine Wang could be considered an elder by the emperor's side.
Although she had been in the palace for many years, Concubine Wang only gave birth to a daughter at the beginning of this year. Concubine Wang had no ill will towards Jiang Chunxi and was a rare clear-headed and insightful person in the harem.
"I pay my respects to the Imperial Concubine." Jiang Chunxi bowed to Imperial Concubine Wang with a smile.
"Miss Chunxi, please stand up quickly! I cannot afford your salute, otherwise if the emperor finds out, he will give me a hard time." Concubine Wang said jokingly, and she didn't really mean anything sarcastic when she said this.
