Chapter 86 Stunning

One's background is there, and background is often related to knowledge. For people like that, their future achievements are extremely limited.

Don't look at the glory now, but how long can the emperor's favor last? There is never a shortage of glorious concubines in this palace, and there will only be a constant supply of new glorious concubines.

The emperor might find the porridge and side dishes delicious for a while, but what really makes people feast on them is the delicacies from land and sea.

However, neither Nanny Chang nor Nanny Yan would have dreamed that while Concubine Chen was of humble origin, her knowledge was not limited...

The Queen Mother shook her head gently. "That Concubine Chen is indeed very scheming. No wonder Zhixue is no match for her. I always feel a little uneasy."

Nanny Chang smiled and said, "If you really don't like her, just make her disappear. Anything can happen in this palace..."

The Queen Mother had considered it before, but after a moment of hesitation, she gave up and said, "Never mind, it hasn't come to that yet."

The emperor is already very dissatisfied with the Fu family and Zhixue. Right now he is in high spirits pampering Concubine Chen, so it’s better not to spoil his fun.

Nanny Chang is right. Just treat her like a whetstone. I hope Zhixue can grow up and stop being so impulsive and willful.

Even the queen mother couldn't protect her all the time.

Three days later, Fengwu Palace paid its respects.

Xu Lanshan dressed up deliberately.

Since there is no way to hide it anymore, then don't hide it.

She deliberately wore an orange-red palace skirt embroidered with pomegranate flowers in gold and silver threads. The pearl hairpin on her bun shone brightly, and the tasseled hairpin made of red gold and kingfisher feathers held pearls and was light and agile. The teardrop-shaped red jade earrings made her skin look even whiter like snow and porcelain.

When Xu Lanshan appeared in Fengwu Palace, her stunningly beautiful face, without any concealment, was revealed in front of everyone. Concubine Deng, Concubine Rou, Concubine Fang and others who had already arrived were all stunned, as if they were dazzled.

Even Lady Bai, who knew Xu Lanshan's beauty, was surprised - she knew she was beautiful, but she didn't know she was so beautiful.

Lady Song gritted her teeth, clasped her hands tightly, and her eyes were filled with madness.

Her heart was screaming wildly.

This bitch! This bitch actually deceived her! She had never even looked at her straight in the eye. In her impression, this bitch always hunched her shoulders and was timid. She didn't even dare to raise her head when she saw her.

But it turns out that it was all fake! Fake!

If I had known that she had such a face, I would never have tolerated her and would have destroyed her to prevent any future troubles.

No wonder Concubine Lian said she was blind, she really was blind!

She should have thought of this when the Emperor praised her hands... How could she not have thought of it even then? How could this be...

Concubine Lin, Concubine Yu, Concubine Shu, Concubine Lian and others arrived one after another. When each of them saw Xu Lanshan, they all showed a look of surprise. Even Concubine Mei, who was usually cold and aloof, couldn't help but look at Xu Lanshan again, and a little surprise appeared in her eyes.

Xu Lanshan noticed, and thought to herself, she was really beautiful! Even Meipin, who was so cold and seemed to care about nothing, couldn't help but feel emotional. Shouldn't she be proud for a moment...

Concubine Lian stared at her with hatred to the core. The three big words "fox spirit" were clearly revealed in her eyes, and she wished she could carve them on her forehead.

Well, Concubine Lian, who was already eager to get rid of me, is now going to fight to the death.

The most embarrassed person was Concubine Song, especially the look that Concubine Lian gave her... Even Xu Lanshan couldn't help but feel a little sympathy.

What surprised Xu Lanshan was that although the concubines changed their expressions and looked at her unfriendlyly, no one mocked her.

Since there was no ridicule and she could save herself some trouble, Xu Lanshan was quite happy.

How could she know? The concubines were so shocked and shocked by her outstanding and stunning appearance that they lost all confidence. How could they have the leisure to mock her?

When the queen came out, she couldn't help but look a little surprised.

She had actually seen Xu Lanshan's beauty, but it was still nothing compared to how beautiful Xu Lanshan looked now after she had dressed up so deliberately.

After all the concubines paid their respects, the Queen smiled and praised: "Noble Lady Chen is indeed beautiful. The Emperor has a keen eye for talent!"

Concubine Lian sneered: "You are so secretive and shameful. I don't know what your intentions are!"

Xu Lanshan was not afraid of Concubine Lian. She raised her eyes and said, "Please rest assured, Concubine Lian. I will not get in your way no matter what!"

"You! Humph, you're just so sharp-tongued! That's all you have left!"

"I am naturally not as capable as your Highness."

"presumptuous!"

"Alright," the Queen frowned and glanced at Xu Lanshan, "Just keep quiet."

This noble lady, after all, had become frivolous due to her favor, and now she was gradually losing her mind. But it was also good this way, as such people were easier to control.

"Noble Lady Chen is beautiful, and all of you sisters are not bad either. Spring orchids and autumn chrysanthemums each have their own strengths. The Emperor naturally loves all of you equally. You sisters should all be more attentive so that the Emperor can see your good qualities!"

The concubines smiled and agreed, but each had their own thoughts in their hearts.

"Alright, everyone, go away." The Queen also felt that Xu Lanshan was a bit annoying, but she was also afraid that others would get jealous and do something to her, angering the Emperor. If that happened, she would be held responsible for mismanagement, so she scolded her a few times: "We are all sisters, each with our own strengths. We should live in harmony, and this is what the Emperor would like to see. Don't blame me for not reminding you, but don't do anything impulsively. If you anger the Emperor, it will be too late to regret it!"

The concubines subconsciously looked towards Xu Lanshan, each feeling a pang of sadness in their hearts. After all, she was the Empress, so virtuous! These words clearly protected Concubine Chen.

Concubine Yu couldn't help but said with a half-smile, "Don't worry, Empress, I'm not stupid and won't eat Concubine Chen! Concubine Chen has such good fortune. It's not enough that the Emperor dotes on her, the Empress also protects her like this! Needless to say, I'm a little jealous!"

All the concubines laughed lightly.

The Queen also laughed and scolded: "You are just a chatterbox. Jokes are jokes, but you all know what's going on. All right, go!"

"Yes, I will take my leave."

After leaving Fengwu Palace, Concubine Yu suddenly stopped as she passed Xu Lanshan. She raised her hand and lifted her chin, carefully examining her features. She then chuckled, "She is truly a beauty. Not only is her appearance beautiful, but her skin as white as snow is truly rare. No wonder the Emperor loves her! I'm envious of her just by looking at it! I wonder how Concubine Chen maintains her beauty?"

Xu Lanshan thought to herself, I can’t tell you that this is all thanks to the system!

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty has not taken good care of me. It has always been like this..."

Concubine Yu smiled and said, "That's natural beauty! Lady Chen is indeed blessed!"

After saying that, he looked at her deeply and walked away.
