Quick Wear: The Enchanting Concubine, Rules of Survival and Plunder

Chapter 553 Prince Liangdi

Ha ha!

Jiang Chunxi couldn't help but sneer in her heart. Tang Xiji was really good at making big promises! However, since Tang Xiji was working so hard to make big promises, she naturally had to cooperate well.

So Jiang Chunxi then said a bunch of cheesy love words to me, which successfully made her feel disgusted.

The next morning, two concubines came to pay their respects to Xie Junwen.

That’s right, Tang Xiji not only married Xie Junwen, but he also had two concubines.

After all, as the crown prince, when he reaches a certain age, he will naturally be arranged to be served by palace maids who teach him personnel matters. These two concubines were the palace maids who taught Tang Xiji personnel matters back then. After Xie Junwen was married into the East Palace and became the crown princess, they were promoted to concubines.

Before Xie Junwen married the prince, Concubine Liu and Concubine Chen were quite favored. After all, they were the only two serving the prince at that time, so naturally he could only favor them.

However, after Xie Junwen married into the Eastern Palace, the Crown Prince never favored them again. After all, the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess were newly married at that time. No matter how anxious Concubine Liu and Concubine Chen were, they did not dare to jump out to compete for favor and offend Xie Junwen, the Crown Princess.

But who would have thought that the prince would go missing and his life or death was unknown after his trip to the south of the Yangtze River. We had been looking forward to the prince's return for a long time, and we heard that the prince brought back a mother and daughter from the folk, and that the prince and the peasant woman had been living as an ordinary couple among the folks for the past few years.

What's more, the prince actually arranged for the mother and daughter to live in Chengxuan Hall.

How could Concubine Liu and Concubine Chen sit still? Therefore, they came together early in the morning to pay their respects to Xie Junwen.

You know, over the years, Xie Junwen never asked the two of them to pay their respects. After all, there was no need. Xie Junwen didn't take them seriously at all, so naturally she didn't think of dealing with them. This is why Concubine Liu and Concubine Chen have lived well until now.

Of course, the Eastern Palace lost the crown prince, its backbone, so Concubine Liu and Concubine Chen naturally had a hard time over the years. Xie Junwen didn't intend to do anything to them, so naturally she wouldn't think of taking care of them.

Over the years, if Concubine Liu and Concubine Chen had not made some money by embroidering their works and having others secretly take them outside the palace to sell them, they would probably not even have enough food to eat. After all, this imperial palace has always been a place where the powerful are flattered and the weak are bullied. Without the crown prince as a backbone, and the crown princess not caring about them, who among the servants below would take them seriously?

"What are they here for?" Xie Junwen was sitting in front of a bronze mirror dressing herself up. She listened to the little palace maid coming in to report and frowned impatiently.

"What else could it be? It must be because of the prince's return. I couldn't sit still and came to ask you for information." Yunsu inserted a hairpin into Xie Junwen's bun.

"If the master doesn't want to see them, then I will go out and send them away," Yunxiang said, "But I think it would be good for the master to meet Concubine Chen and Concubine Liu, and let them fight with the peasant woman. After all, the master will definitely not lower himself to fight with the peasant woman, so you don't need someone to be your dog and fight with that lowly peasant woman."

"Yes! You are right," Xie Junwen said, "Go prepare some clothes and beautiful jewelry. Since you want Concubine Liu and Concubine Chen to fight that bitch, you should dress them up well. Otherwise, how can they fight that bitch?"

Concubine Liu and Concubine Chen were chosen by the Queen to be the Prince's concubines, so they were naturally beautiful, but they were still far inferior to that bitch Jiang Chunxi.

But isn't that bitch pregnant now? Then Concubine Liu and Concubine Chen will naturally have a chance to compete for the prince's favor. As long as the prince can favor them, then what the prince said last night will naturally fall apart.

"Yes, I'll prepare it right away." Yunxiang bowed and walked outside.

"Greetings, Her Majesty the Crown Princess." When Concubine Liu and Concubine Chen saw the Crown Princess come out, they both stood up quickly and saluted her.

"Get up!" Xie Junwen said in a light voice.

Concubine Liu and Concubine Chen stood up and sat down. The two looked at each other, and then Concubine Liu asked nervously, "Crown Princess, I heard that the Crown Prince brought back a mother and daughter from the people and arranged for them to live in Chengxuan Palace. This doesn't seem reasonable! After all, Chengxuan Palace is where the Crown Prince lives. How can a concubine live there?"

"Ha!" Xie Junwen sneered, "Concubine Liu has objections to the prince's arrangement. Do you want me to send you to the prince right now and have a good talk with him?"

"I dare not." Concubine Liu quickly stood up and knelt on the ground in fear.

"You are very daring, I think," Xie Junwen said in a cold voice, "You are just a concubine, yet you dare to act so arrogantly towards me. Who gave you the courage? Or do you really think that I, the Crown Princess, can be so easily manipulated?"

"Crown Princess, I know I was wrong. Please forgive me for once!" Concubine Liu kowtowed to the Crown Princess in fear. "I was just jealous and mad. That's why I dared to offend the Crown Princess. I didn't mean to be disrespectful to you!"

"I beg Crown Princess to forgive me this time for the fact that I have been well behaved over the years!"

"If it weren't for the fact that you've been law-abiding over the years, I would have had you dragged out and beaten to death just now," Xie Junwen's tone was obviously not as angry anymore. "Alright, get up!"

"I thank the Crown Princess." Concubine Liu stood up and sat down in fear, cold sweat breaking out on her back.

"I have asked someone to prepare some clothes and jewelry for you. It would have been fine before the prince was away, but now he is finally back. As his concubines, you should dress up well to please him." As soon as Xie Junwen finished her voice, Yunxiang brought out clothes and jewelry with several palace maids.

When Concubine Liu and Concubine Chen saw the clothes and jewelry in the plates in the hands of the palace maids, their expressions of joy almost overflowed.

The two of them were not the happiest about receiving so many rewards. What made them happiest was that the Crown Princess actually took the initiative to let them compete for favor.

Of course, they also knew the Crown Princess's intention. She just wanted to use them to fight against the peasant woman.

But so what?

As long as they can get the favor of the prince, they will be happy even if the princess wants to use them.

After receiving the rewards, Concubine Liu and Concubine Chen left happily. After they left, Xie Junwen had breakfast and set out to pay her respects to the Queen.

Over the years, Xie Junwen went to pay her respects to the Queen every day, rain or shine, and never slacked off for a single day.

When Xie Junwen arrived at the Queen's Palace, the concubines in the harem had already paid their respects and left.
