Chapter 614 The Tragic Palace Maid 7
Because the Queen Mother fell asleep early last night, the servants serving her naturally did not wake her up, which is why the Queen Mother only now knows what happened in the Glazed Palace last night.
"Ridiculous, ridiculous," the Queen Mother said, looking very angry, "How could such a ridiculous thing happen?"
"By the way, do you know whether the emperor has punished Concubine Zhen? Don't tell me that Concubine Zhen did such a thing, but the emperor didn't punish her at all."
The Empress Dowager hated Concubine Zhen very much.
Zhenfei's aunt was the late emperor's concubine, Concubine Yu, who was also the late emperor's favorite concubine. The late emperor not only favored Concubine Yu, but also treated Concubine Yu's family well. Not only did he confer a title on Concubine Yu's father, a fifth-rank official, but he also allowed the women from Concubine Yu's family to enter the palace freely.
It was under such circumstances that Concubine Zhen came into contact with the Emperor. When the Empress Dowager found out, her son had been seduced by Concubine Zhen. But the Empress Dowager could not get angry at the time, because the late Emperor was still hanging on. What would the Empress Dowager do if Concubine Yu whispered in the late Emperor's ear because of the quarrel between Concubine Yu's niece and her son, causing the throne to fall into the hands of other princes?
Let me ask you this, doesn’t Concubine Yu have a son?
Haha! How could the Queen Mother, who was the Queen at the time, allow a concubine to give birth to a prince?
Therefore, someone killed Concubine Yu's fertility early on, and as soon as the late emperor died, the empress dowager sent Concubine Yu away with a glass of poisoned wine, and created the illusion that Concubine Yu committed suicide by drinking the poisoned wine in order to pursue the late emperor.
I thought! I finally became the empress dowager, so I should have no worries, but I didn't expect that my son insisted on letting Zhenfei enter the palace, and even carried her in through the main gate of the palace in the phoenix carriage of the imperial concubine.
If it weren't for Zhenfei's inferior background, her son would have given the position of queen to Zhenfei.
The Empress Dowager was naturally opposed to it, and even threatened to sentence Concubine Zhen to death. This forced her son to back off again and again, and in the end, he could only give Concubine Zhen the position of a concubine.
The Empress Dowager kept her word and did not take action against Zhenfei after she entered the palace. After all, she did not want her son to hate her as a mother because of a woman.
However, after Concubine Zhen entered the palace, the Empress Dowager became confused.
The Empress Dowager had witnessed how the late Emperor doted on Concubine Yu, but why did her son's doting on Concubine Zhen seem so fake?
Of course, what confused the empress dowager the most was that Zhenfei did not think there was any problem. Instead, she felt that the emperor's favor towards her was different from that towards others, and the relationship between her and the emperor was unmatched by other concubines.
In the end, the Queen Mother concluded that there was something wrong with both of them.
"Empress Dowager, the Emperor just left Zhenfei's palace in a rage last night, and he really didn't punish her. I heard that Zhenfei went to pay her respects to the Queen as if nothing had happened this morning, and now she is kneeling in the Queen's palace as if punished." Madam Yun, the Empress Dowager's confidant, said:
Someone had already come to the Empress Dowager's palace to report what had happened in the Queen's Palace that morning, so Nanny Yun quickly told the Empress Dowager about Concubine Zhen's punishment.
After hearing what Madam Yun said, the Queen Mother's face naturally became very ugly: "I knew it, that bitch Zhen Fei is very ambitious. A concubine position can't satisfy her at all, but she is so good at annoying people. Her ambition is clearly shown on her face, but she still pretends to be noble and says that she doesn't care about the position."
"Go and convey my imperial decree, saying that Concubine Zhen has offended the Emperor and is demoted to Concubine Zhen..." As she spoke, the empress dowager felt that it was too easy for Concubine Zhen, "No, just demoting her to Concubine Zhen is still too easy for that bitch, let's make her a noble lady! Demote Concubine Zhen to a noble lady and let her move out of the main hall of the Glazed Palace."
"Empress Dowager, should we discuss this with the Emperor?" Madam Yun said, "Otherwise, if the Emperor knows that you demoted Concubine Zhen, he will feel sorry for her and get angry with you again. What will we do then?"
"What should I do? I am the empress dowager. Can't I deal with a concubine in the harem?" the empress dowager said angrily. "If the emperor really loves that bitch Zhenfei, then let him come to me to question me. Then I can ask the emperor if it stinks and disgusts him to be shit on by Zhenfei. Do you need me to prescribe a medicine for Zhenfei so that she can shit on the emperor again?"
Is the Queen Mother still afraid that her son will come to her to question her?
However, based on the Empress Dowager's understanding of her son, she knew that he would not confront her for Concubine Zhen. After all, his love for Concubine Zhen was just that.
It was also because of this that the Empress Dowager did not destroy Concubine Zhen's fertility. Otherwise, if Concubine Zhen really made the Empress Dowager feel threatened, she would definitely destroy Concubine Zhen's fertility.
After hearing what the empress dowager said, Nanny Yun naturally stopped trying to persuade her and immediately went to the Queen's Palace to convey the empress dowager's order.
When Nanny Yun arrived at the Queen's palace, all the concubines were still there. After all, since they could see Concubine Zhen kneeling as punishment, everyone naturally wanted to take a good look.
After hearing what Nanny Yun said, Concubine Zhen started blinking again, and then she kowtowed respectfully to express her gratitude, as if she did not take her demotion to a noble lady seriously at all, maintaining her noble character.
Nanny Yun looked at Concubine Zhen with complicated eyes.
To be honest, Nanny Yun has never seen a concubine like Zhenfei in her decades in the harem. If it were the harem of the late emperor, a concubine like Zhenfei would have died several times already, and there is no way she would be alive and well and annoying people.
So, Zhen Fei was lucky. The concubines in the emperor's harem were not as cruel as the concubines in the previous empress's harem. This allowed Zhen Fei to live well and disgust people.
As soon as Nanny Yun left, Concubine Hui couldn't help but speak up: "The Queen Mother is the Queen Mother. This move directly made Concubine Zhen become Zhengui. Now there is no Concubine Zhen. From now on, there will only be one Zhengui in the palace. Zhengui is also the first concubine to be demoted. Does this count as a skill?"
"Haha! What kind of skill is that?" Rong Fei sneered. "The greatest skill of Zhen Fei is that she dares to poop on the emperor. Such a feat is unprecedented and will never be repeated. If it can be recorded in history books, Zhen Fei will be remembered for thousands of years."
"Alright," the Queen frowned and said, "Did Concubine Rong not take my warning to heart? If you really want to die, then go to the Emperor and say it now, so that you won't get others into trouble because of your careless words one day."
"I was wrong, Queen, please calm down." Concubine Rong said with an embarrassed expression:
The Queen glanced at Concubine Rong with dissatisfaction, and then continued: "Okay, let's all go!"
Since the Queen had said so, no matter how much the concubines wanted to stay and continue to laugh at Concubine Zhen, they had to leave with their maids.
