Chapter 1990 The Battle Between Wives and Concubines

"Madam, I've heard that the Guanyin Bodhisattva who grants children at Tantuo Temple is extremely efficacious. Let's donate more money for incense oil so that your monks can burn more incense oil for this Guanyin Bodhisattva," Shuzhen said softly, seeing that Yiergenshi beside her was still praying and muttering incantations.

Irgen is now full of suspicion and distrust towards Ulanara Shuzhen. This is because she was initially flattered by her, but later learned her true colors, and therefore she especially dislikes her and is unwilling to even speak to her.

Throughout the journey, whenever Irgen saw Hongshi talking to Ulanara Shuzhen with his head down, she felt uneasy. Hongshi didn't know why Irgen had suddenly turned into a jealous woman. Before, she was clearly charming, cute, gentle, and kind, but now she had become suspicious, willful, and even a bit unreasonable.

"Go donate yourself," Irgen replied coldly, continuing to chant sutras silently in his heart with his eyes closed.

"Madam, what's wrong? Did I do something wrong and offend you?" Seeing that Irgen was wary of her, Shuzhen pretended to be guilty and said with a wronged expression that was almost in tears.

"Stop pretending. In front of the Bodhisattva, you dare to put on a gentle and virtuous act? Aren't you afraid the Bodhisattva will blame you?" Irgen opened her eyes and looked at Shuzhen with disgust.

Shuzhen didn't know how Irgen had figured it out. She had always been very cautious in front of her, so how could Irgen have seen through her?

"Madam, what are you saying? I don't understand," Shuzhen said, looking at Irgen with innocent eyes.

"Stop pretending. The master isn't here. Aren't you tired of acting?" Irgen glanced at her a few times, then refused to open his eyes again, but still maintained a reverent Buddhist posture.

Seeing that Irgen no longer trusted her, Shuzhen had already gone through several thought processes. Her face, which had just been humble and respectful, had now changed to a calm and scrutinizing expression.

The two women remained kneeling, their posture unchanged. Hongshi stood by the incense burner outside, watching the two kneeling figures from afar, completely unaware of the conversation the two women had just had.

"How did you know, Madam?" Shuzhen decided to stop pretending in front of Irgen and changed her voice. In fact, this was her real voice. In the past, in order to show that she was weak and humble, she would speak in a high-pitched voice, but now her tone was low and completely different.

Sure enough, Irgen was startled by the voice in front of him, and suddenly opened his eyes to look at the woman beside him.

"It was all an act, after all. I already know, so why do you need to know who it is?" Irgen involuntarily slumped to the side and slumped to the ground.

Seeing her reaction, Ulanara Shuzhen smiled contemptuously and said, "Madam, you might as well pray to the Bodhisattva to help you conceive the master's legitimate son as soon as possible, otherwise I'm afraid I'll beat you to it."

At this moment, what Irgen was most afraid of was being told that she had no children, and now, hearing Ulanara's provocation, her face turned pale and she said, "Aren't you afraid that I will tell the master? Your usual gentleness is all an act."

“If you want to go and say it, Madam, go ahead. I can tell you, the Master won’t believe you. If you don’t believe me, Madam, go ahead and try,” Shuzhen said provocatively.

Irgen glared at her angrily, then grabbed her cheongsam and scrambled to her feet. She rushed out from inside, and Chunqin, seeing her mistress emerge, hurriedly went to greet her, saying, "Madam!"

Standing outside, she hadn't heard the conversation between Irgen and Ulanara, so she naturally didn't know why Irgen looked so panicked.

Ignoring Chunqin's questions, Irgen rushed towards Hongshi.

"Second Master!" Irgen called out.

Hongshi had his back to Irgen when he heard her voice behind him, so he turned around to look at her. He saw that she looked panicked, as if she had just encountered something frightening.

"What's wrong?" Hongshi asked instinctively.

“My lord, you must believe me, won’t you?” asked Lady Irgen.

"What's wrong?" Hongshi didn't understand why Yiergen, who had just been offering incense, would come and say such things to him.

“My lord, Ulanara is no good. Just now she told me that she would definitely bear a child before me. She always pretended to be weak and docile, but that's not how she really feels,” said Irgen. Chunqin, who was following behind her, was alarmed when she heard Irgen say this: How could she say such a thing in front of the lord?

As expected, Ulanara also rushed out, her face full of anxiety and timidity, and said, "Madam, don't worry, I will never give birth to a child before you. Don't worry that I will steal your chance to give birth to your eldest son."

Irgen glanced back at Ulanara and angrily slapped her across the face, landing a solid blow to her left cheek.
