The princess sneered and fiddled with the Buddhist beads in her hand: "Even if Chen Wei gave birth to a child, with her background, she can only be a concubine. Is it possible that she can be a concubine?"
The children of a concubine must be raised by the princess.
By then, the princess will deliberately use some means to turn Shen Wei's son into a timid and cowardly waste.
"Master, you are smart." Nanny Liu said as she applied medicine to the princess, "There is another troublesome matter. Miss Ye from Jiangnan sent news that she has gone to her relatives in Yanjing and does not want to enter the palace as a concubine."
The princess' fingers that were fiddling with the Buddhist beads paused.
Ye Qiu Shuang actually doesn't want to be a concubine?
The princess was upset. She had originally planned to bring Ye Qiushuang to the palace during Shen Wei's pregnancy to disrupt Shen Wei's emotions.
Pregnant women are emotionally fragile. Shen Wei would definitely be sad and haggard if she watched the prince being affectionate with other women, which would affect the health of the fetus in her belly.
There will definitely be problems with future childbirth.
The princess used the same method when dealing with the pregnant concubine Liu Qiaoer. As a result, Liu Qiaoer had a difficult delivery and the son she gave birth to still cannot speak. Liu Qiaoer's body was damaged and it took her two full years to recover.
The princess shook her head calmly: "Since she doesn't want to, I won't force her. Madam Liu, go find another suitable woman - the daughter of a minor official, a farmer, a merchant, or even an actor or actress, but don't look for a daughter from a famous family."
Although Prince Yan was known for his coldness, he was still in a high position of power, and many officials still wanted to send their daughters to him.
The princess does not allow daughters from prominent families to come to the palace as this would threaten her position.
Madam Liu nodded happily: "I will do it when I return home."
The princess thought of Shen Wei's current glory, and the corners of her lips curled slightly: "With the Queen's reward and attention, if Shen Wei has any brains, she will try her best to grab the Queen's rope and work hard to climb up."
...
The carriage returned to the palace, and the princess supported Nanny Liu and walked back to Kunyu Courtyard.
Unexpectedly, at the gate of Kunyu Courtyard, he saw Shen Wei who had been waiting for a long time.
It was dark and the lanterns at the gate of the yard were lit. Shen Wei was wearing a gilded purple dress, holding a palace lantern in her hand, and behind her were two heavy boxes.
"I pay my respects to the princess." Shen Wei knelt down and saluted, her eyes falling on the princess's knees.
Look at the way the princess walks, she is limping. Shen Wei pondered secretly, was she punished to kneel in the palace?
The Queen and the Princess don't seem to have a good relationship.
That's a good thing. The Queen and Princess Yan were not on good terms, so Shen Wei had an opportunity to take advantage of it.
The princess did not expect Shen Wei's visit, and raised her eyebrows slightly: "You are so glorious today, and you are pregnant and rewarded by the queen. You should recuperate in your room, why are you running to my place?"
Chen Wei's thin body trembled slightly, and she said uncomfortably: "Reply...Reply Princess, I received a lot of rewards today...I..."
He stuttered and took a long time to finish a sentence.
The princess said impatiently, "You should be happy to receive a reward."
Chen Wei shook her head fearfully: "I was very happy when I received the reward, but after returning to the palace, I felt more and more uneasy. When I was a child, I sold vegetables with my mother and earned 20 coins. I put it under my pillow at night, but it was still stolen. I received so much money today, I was so scared that I couldn't sleep, afraid that the money would be stolen again... After thinking about it, I decided to give all the rewards to the princess for safekeeping."
The princess didn't expect her to say such a thing and was stunned for a moment.
Aunt Liu beside her almost couldn't help laughing.
As expected, she was a peasant girl who had never seen the world. Even after receiving a huge reward from the Queen, she was actually afraid that it would be stolen.
Ridiculous, ridiculous and short-sighted.
The princess was also confused by Shen Wei's outrageous behavior. The princess thought that since Shen Wei had received the attention of the queen, she would definitely be very proud and climb up along the rope of the queen.
But Shen Wei didn't seem to have thought about climbing onto the Queen's big ship...
So stupid.
Shen Wei was enjoying great glory today, and the princess was secretly jealous. But seeing Chen Wei's useless and cowardly look, the princess laughed in her heart.
With Shen Wei's short-sightedness, even if she was given a mountain of gold and silver, Shen Wei would not be able to keep it.
The princess said helplessly, "The Prince of Yan's mansion is heavily guarded. No one has the guts to steal the Queen's reward. Take the box back and keep it safe."
Chen Wei held the palace lantern and hesitated: "Yes... yes..."
Princess: "It's cold at night, go back and rest. If the baby in your belly dies at the gate of my courtyard, where can I go to seek justice?"
Chen Wei could only bow her head in dismay: "Well... well then. I will move the boxes back and buy some rat poison and insect repellent. We can't let rats and insects chew through the silk and jewelry."
Shen Wei asked Rong Mama and others to carry the box back to Liuli Pavilion.
The princess watched Shen Wei leave at the gate of the courtyard, and she was full of doubts - the prince was unparalleled in the world, how could he fall in love with such a short-sighted and empty-headed woman?
Could it be that the prince likes this type?
After thinking for a while, the princess told Aunt Liu: "The new concubine you go to find can't be too smart. It's best to find a dull and simple woman with low vision."
Madam Liu smiled and said, "Princess, I understand what you mean."
Just find a substitute similar to Shen Wei, it's very easy.
...
Shen Wei returned to Liuli Pavilion with two large boxes.
She personally supervised and asked Rong Mama to put the box back into her small treasury. Looking at the increasingly full treasury, Shen Wei showed a happy smile on her face.
It feels good to have money.
"Master, why do you want to carry the box to the princess?" Madam Rong couldn't understand.
Shen Wei took a sip of the sour citrate water and said slowly, “Lower the princess’s guard.”
The princess looked down on her and didn't take her seriously, so Shen Wei wanted to take advantage of this mentality.
The princess looked down on her, and Shen Wei understood this. It’s like if you tell the richest man Jack Ma that a farmer has opened a supermarket in the village and that the supermarket’s business will threaten Jack Ma’s huge business empire, do you think Jack Ma will pay attention?
People never care about the threat of ants.
At least in the princess's eyes, Shen Wei is an ant. Shen Wei's existence does not threaten the princess's position.
Shen Wei smiled lightly and said:
"I have to gain a firm foothold in the palace before the princess wakes up."
