Chapter 711 The Tragic Concubine 8
Chapter 711 The Tragic Concubine 8
After Chengpin's death, time seemed to have been accelerated by pressing a shortcut key, and suddenly it came to ten years later.
Although the emperor had not favored Jiang Chunxi in the past ten years, no one in the palace dared to look down on Jiang Chunxi, because whenever there was any good thing, the emperor would have someone send it to Jiang Chunxi's palace.
So what is unclear about this? It's not that Concubine Jiang fell out of favor, but that Concubine Jiang unilaterally did not want the emperor's favor. However, the emperor was not angry and was trying his best to please Concubine Jiang.
As for why Concubine Jiang did this, it was naturally because the emperor was protecting the murderer. The child who was instructed by Concubine Cheng to kill Concubine Jiang's belly was the queen. In order to protect the queen, the emperor caused Concubine Jiang to break up with the emperor unilaterally and was unwilling to accept his favor anymore.
"The royal concubine has arrived."
That morning, Concubine Jiang came to pay her respects to the Queen with an arrogant step again.
Over the past ten years, the Queen had endured so much anger from Jiang Chunxi that one could tell just by looking at the white hair on her head.
"I am not late, am I?" When Concubine Jiang walked in, the Queen was already sitting in the main seat, which meant that Jiang Chunxi was late for paying her respects.
The concubines at the scene were no longer surprised by such a phenomenon.
Jiang Chunxi did not bow to the Queen, but went straight to her seat and sat down. She no longer took the Queen seriously and was too lazy to even do the most basic superficial things.
As for Jiang Chunxi's provocative behavior, the Queen couldn't even get angry anymore.
After all, the Empress Dowager and the Emperor were helpless with Concubine Jiang, or rather, they both favored Concubine Jiang. Even her father wrote to her, telling her not to take Concubine Jiang's provocation seriously. So what could the Queen do? She could only relax and not bother with Concubine Jiang.
But some things cannot be solved by just relaxing your mind. If it worked, the queen wouldn't have been so angry that she had white hair.
"Since Imperial Concubine Jiang knew she was late, why didn't she leave earlier?" the Queen said coldly. "I have already said that if Imperial Concubine Jiang doesn't want to pay her respects to me, she doesn't have to. I don't have to ask you to pay your respects to me."
"You can't say that," Jiang Chunxi said with a smile, "If I don't come to pay my respects to Her Majesty the Queen, then I won't have many opportunities to cause trouble for Her Majesty the Queen."
"That won't do. You know, my only pleasure right now is to cause trouble for the Queen. If even this little bit of pleasure is reduced, then life will be too boring."
The veins on the back of the Queen's hand popped out, showing that she was pissed off by Jiang Chunxi again: "I am so honored. I didn't expect that Concubine Jiang's life depends on me."
"That's right," Jiang Chunxi nodded in agreement, "So your majesty, please live well and don't let me piss you off so easily. I can't even imagine how I would collapse if the queen was pissed off to death by me. I might even die with you."
"Alas! The fate between us is really that of life and death. Don't worry, Queen! Even if you die, I will not let you go. Don't think of ending your own life just to escape me. Do you think that if you die, I will not be able to trouble you anymore and can do nothing to you."
"Anyway! Your Majesty, please don't have such naive thoughts, lest you end up in a situation where your death is in vain and it is even more annoying. Wouldn't it be frustrating even as a ghost?"
"That's enough," the Queen looked at Jiang Chunxi with her eyes blazing with fire. "After you dared to curse an entire country like this, Concubine Jiang is really becoming more and more lawless. You really think that I can't do anything to you, right?"
"Empress, I've heard your words so many times that my ears are almost callused," Jiang Chunxi rolled her eyes at the Empress with disdain, "You say you're not tired, but you should also consider whether I'm tired of listening to you!"
"Be good, listen to me. Use new words next time, or I will be really unhappy. Once I am unhappy, I am afraid I will say something even more irritating, and make you spit blood in anger, which is not good."
"Alas!" Jiang Chunxi shook the fan in her hand and said hypocritically, "I am too kind. Facing the enemy who killed my son, I still offered words of care. I don't think there is another kind person like me in the world."
The Queen no longer had the energy to argue with Jiang Chunxi.
Is arguing useful?
She had already said that she had not harmed the baby in Concubine Jiang's belly, but the problem was that Concubine Jiang never took her words seriously.
"I feel unwell all of a sudden. Let's all go!" The Queen said, holding her forehead with her hand.
"The Queen's patience is a little low today!" Jiang Chunxi taunted, "She can't stand it after just a few words."
"Alas!" Jiang Chunxi sighed again, and then stood up. "It seems that it's no good when you get older. You can't refuse to accept your age! The Queen is the best example."
"Haha!" After saying that, Jiang Chunxi laughed arrogantly and left.
The concubines quickly stood up, saluted the queen, and left quickly.
No one dared to say anything about the feud between the Queen and Concubine Jiang. At the beginning, some people were not afraid of death, such as Concubine Shu...
But what's the result?
As a result, not only was he severely punished by Concubine Jiang, but he was also ignored by the Emperor for half a year. From then on, no one dared to say anything.
What's more, the queen is not a good person. If she hadn't killed the baby in Concubine Jiang's belly, would Concubine Jiang have been fighting with her to the death?
And the most important thing is that no concubine in the harem has been pregnant for so many years. Everyone has long suspected that the queen had drugged them, which led to no one getting pregnant.
What does this mean? It means that the queen herself cannot give birth, but she is unwilling to let others give birth. However, no problems can be found in their bodies, and there is no evidence to prove that the queen drugged them.
So! The concubines in the harem were very angry about Concubine Jiang's behavior of angering the queen. They didn't think Concubine Jiang's behavior was excessive at all. They even hoped that Concubine Jiang would anger the queen to death.
Of course, not all concubines thought this way, and this person was the queen's concubine sister.
However, in order not to arouse other people's suspicion, the queen's half sister would naturally not stand up to speak for the queen. The two sisters usually had little interaction with each other. The queen treated her half sister no differently than she treated other concubines.
Therefore, the relationship between the two sisters never aroused suspicion from others, and even Jiang Chunxi had never doubted anything. After all, in the original owner's previous life, the queen's concubine sister did not enter the palace.
