Chapter 209: Bed Climbing Palace Maid 23
"Haha!" Jiang Chunxi laughed sadly, "Wei Yan, you still want to disgust me. If you really love me, how could you betray me?"
As she spoke, Jiang Chunxi wiped away her tears and said, "But what you said is true. I only have one way to go now, so I will do my best to win your favor. Otherwise, I will fail you, Wei Yan, in your support."
Jiang Chunxi approached Wei Yan and whispered in his ear, "After all, the Emperor favored me because of Eunuch Wei, so how can I disappoint Eunuch Wei?"
After he finished speaking, Jiang Chunxi quickly distanced himself from Wei Yan, looked at Wei Yan with a sneer and disdain, and continued walking forward.
Wei Yan's heart was broken at this time. Jiang Chunxi's words were like a sharp blade, piercing his heart into pieces.
But who could he blame? He was the one who lost Chunxi. Although Wei Yan hated Yingrui to death, he knew in his heart that he should hate himself the most and should die the most.
As soon as Jiang Chunxi returned to Taiji Hall, he went to find Aunt Fang and stopped Wei Yan from following him.
What could Wei Yan do? He naturally did not dare to make Jiang Chunxi unhappy again. He obediently retreated and went to arrange a place for Jiang Chunxi to live.
Since Chunxi has been favored by the emperor, it is naturally not appropriate for her to continue living in her previous residence.
Jiang Chunxi used to live in the same room with Yinhan and Yinman.
"Aunt," Jiang Chunxi squatted in front of Aunt Fang, her head on her thighs and cried bitterly, "I thought I would never see you again. You don't know how scared I was when I was taken to the Chen Fei Palace."
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid," Aunt Fang stroked Jiang Chunxi's head distressedly, "With Auntie here, there's no way I'd let anyone harm you."
"But Chunxi! What do you think about serving the emperor in the future? You were able to leave the palace of the Concubine Chen. I think the emperor has seen you. With your appearance, the emperor will definitely take you into the harem."
"I don't know," Jiang Chunxi said with tears in her eyes. She looked up at Aunt Fang helplessly, "Aunt, I don't know what to do. You know that Chunxi doesn't want to be the emperor's woman at all. Chunxi just wants to be with you forever and be filial to you."
"Alas!" Aunt Fang sighed distressedly, her eyes welling with tears, "If you become the emperor's concubine, won't you be able to be filial to me just as well? Chunxi, aunt knows that you must not have let go of Wei Yan in your heart yet, but since the emperor has already fallen in love with you, you must let go of Wei Yan and can't let Wei Yan control your emotions anymore."
"Of course, since Wei Yan, that bastard, betrayed you, you can't let him off so easily. Just let him escort you on your future path. He owes you this, so he must plan for you in every way, even if it means costing him his life. That's only natural."
"But..." Jiang Chunxi couldn't stop crying, "But I don't want to have anything to do with Wei Yan anymore. I don't want him to protect me, and I don't want his life. I just want to stay away from him and stop him from disgusting me."
"Why are you so stupid?" Aunt Fang said helplessly, "With your personality, if Master Wei Yan and his apprentice didn't help you, I'm afraid I can't protect you alone. This harem is like a den of dragons and tigers. If you don't pay attention, you will be crushed to pieces."
"So you must listen to me. You must use Wei Yan for your own benefit. Take advantage of his guilt towards you and make him fight for you by any means necessary. Since you are destined to become the emperor's concubine, you must try your best to take a gamble."
"So throw away your innocent and kind nature. You must know that being kind in the harem will only make you die faster. Sometimes, just because you don't harm others doesn't mean that others won't harm you. Not only will they harm you, they will also harm the people around you. If you don't want to watch your aunt being harmed by others one day, then you must listen to your aunt, understand?"
"I understand. I'll listen to my aunt," Jiang Chunxi nodded. "I'll listen to my aunt. Whatever my aunt wants me to do, I'll do it obediently. I will never let my aunt be harmed by anyone."
It was worth her planning for so long. Rather than taking revenge on Wei Yan, she wanted Wei Yan to work for her.
The next day, when the emperor was leaving court, Jiang Chunxi held a cup of tea and handed it to the emperor: "Your Majesty, please have some tea."
The emperor's eyes fell on Jiang Chunxi's pair of jade-white hands. Not only was she beautiful, but her hands were also unmatched by any other concubine in the harem.
"You used to work in Taiji Palace, so I think you shouldn't have any difficulty adapting to working in Taiji Palace again," the emperor took a sip from his teacup, and then continued, "Why don't you dare to look up at me? Are you so afraid of me?"
"Your servant... Your servant..." Jiang Chunxi's voice was afraid at first, but then she mustered up the courage to say, "Your servant is afraid. How can I not be afraid of the majesty of the emperor?"
"Oh!" The emperor smiled faintly, "Because you were afraid of me, you were transferred to the flower room. If Concubine Chen hadn't brought you to Chonghua Palace, I would never have known that Taiji Palace had a beautiful maid like you."
"Your Majesty," Jiang Chunxi knelt down in fear and trepidation, "This is all my fault. It has nothing to do with Aunt Fang. If Your Majesty wants to punish someone, please blame me. Don't blame Aunt Fang. I beg Your Majesty."
As he spoke, Jiang Chunxi kowtowed heavily.
The emperor frowned and said, "Did I say I would question you? Come on, get up quickly! Don't ruin your pretty face."
Jiang Chunxi raised her head and looked at the emperor in disbelief, as if she was surprised that the emperor would be so magnanimous as to forgive her.
The emperor laughed at Jiang Chunxi's incredulous look: "Why, do you think I am a tyrant?"
Jiang Chunxi hurriedly shook her head: "Although I have never seen the emperor before, I know that he is a good emperor who works hard and loves his people. I just didn't expect that the emperor is so kind and doesn't blame me at all."
"It seems that you are very clear about what you did wrong." The emperor said with a smile:
"Yes!" Jiang Chunxi nodded seriously. "I relied on my beauty to leave Taiji Palace and work in the flower room. To put it mildly, I am too self-righteous. To put it more seriously... it is... it is..."
Jiang Chunxi looked so frightened that she didn't dare to say anything more, and she also looked ashamed.
"Hearing what you said, it seems that I should indeed arrest you and punish you," the emperor said with a smile, "Then I will punish you by making you serve me well! Now come and help me press my head."
During the morning court session, the emperor still feels dizzy from the noise from the court officials. So even though he is attracted by Jiang Chunxi's beauty, he really doesn't want to do anything to her now.
