"Miss, there's no need to feel guilty about this. What Prince Gong asked you to do is for the good of Prince Gong's Mansion.
If Prince Gong really gets what he wants, then wouldn't that honorable position also be yours?"
Lan Zhen lowered her voice, "But if Prince Gong loses and Prince Kang gets that position, then the position that originally belonged to you will become Princess Kang's!
It can be said that Princess Kang is your rival! How can you feel guilty towards your rival?
Miss, do you think this is true?"
Princess Tian Shanyue of Prince Gong was the concubine daughter of a Deputy Minister of the Ministry of War. She was brought up by her stepmother to be submissive and have no opinions of her own.
No matter what Lan Zhen said, she felt that what Lan Zhen said made sense.
After Lan Zhen said this, her guilt towards Princess Kang disappeared completely.
"Lan Zhen, you're right. I shouldn't be so soft-hearted. As for what will happen to Princess Kang and the baby, it all depends on their own fate.
Go get some water, I need to wash up."
"Yes." Lan Zhen agreed and went out.
Princess Gong sat down and thought for a while, and decided to go to Prince Kang's Mansion again in a few days.
If the prince could learn what he wanted to know from Princess Kang, he would definitely like her more!
.......
Kunning Palace.
Some time has passed since the Queen gave Princess Ning the blank piece of rice paper with her signature and seal on it, and asked her to deliver it to Princess Kang and ask her to persuade the Imperial Concubine to release Concubine Shu from the cold palace.
The queen waited and waited, but she never got the news that the noble concubine agreed and that the concubine would leave the cold palace.
The Queen was angry at first. She was angry that Princess Kang had broken her promise!
He clearly took her promise, but he didn't persuade the imperial concubine!
But after some time, the Queen suddenly felt that it was a good thing for Concubine Shu to be banished to the cold palace.
The previous Concubine Shu relied on her cousin, the Queen, to act tyrannically in the palace, and doing bad things was a common occurrence for her.
She didn't know how many times she had been kind to her!
Moreover, Concubine Shu had a loud voice and chattered in her palace every day, which gave her a headache.
Maybe she is old after all and just wants to be quiet.
Because of Concubine Shu, her health had not been very good before.
But since Concubine Shu was banished to the cold palace until now, no one has come to her palace to make trouble, and she doesn't have to go to the trouble of cleaning up the mess for anyone.
She felt that her health had improved a lot and she felt refreshed every day!
She even hoped that the imperial concubine would never give in for the rest of her life!
Concubine Shu lived in the cold palace all her life!
But this is probably unlikely.
After thinking about it, the queen called Bilan.
"Go to the cold palace and see how Concubine Shu is doing in there lately.
Then tell me everything I have done for her."
Bilan agreed and went to the cold palace.
The cold palace is located in a remote part of the imperial palace. The palace is dilapidated. Not long ago, there was a snowstorm in the capital, and half of the cold palace collapsed. A concubine and several palace maids were frozen to death.
Before banishing Concubine Shu to the cold palace, the old emperor had just ordered the cold palace to be renovated.
Shufei was considered lucky. When she was banished to the cold palace, the snowstorm had ended and the palace had been repaired, so she did not freeze to death.
The time she spent in the cold palace felt like a year.
She cursed the imperial concubine every day without stopping.
It seemed as if by cursing, she could get out of the cold palace.
As Bilan approached the cold palace, she heard the curses coming from inside.
"Zheng Qiuyan, you old bitch! I didn't poison you at all! You're such a shrew at framing me!
You framed me and put me in the cold palace. Are you happy about that?
I curse you to die a miserable death! Your son to die a miserable death! All your grandchildren to die a miserable death!
You think your granddaughter is a treasure! She's just a money-loser!
Sooner or later, you will be killed by her!
She is a jinx! A disaster! Bah! "
The blue eyelids twitched at the unrepeated curse.
She walked to the palace gate and looked at the two guards guarding the door.
"You two, does the Emperor allow Concubine Shu to insult Concubine Gui and Prince Kang's family like this?"
The two guards didn't say anything, but just opened the door and let her in.
Bilan pursed her lips and went in carrying a bamboo basket filled with food.
When the palace maid serving Concubine Shu saw that it was Bilan, she quickly opened the door.
"Sister Bilan, the Queen scolds people like this every day. I wonder if the Royal Concubine knows about this. I am very worried that the Royal Concubine will bear a grudge against me."
One of the palace maids looked pale and spoke cautiously in a low voice to Bilan.
"Don't worry, the Imperial Concubine doesn't know. This place is quite far from the Beauty Palace, and I haven't seen the Imperial Concubine send anyone here.
As long as there is no one who deliberately seeks trouble and spreads the news, the Imperial Concubine will not know."
After Bi Lan finished speaking, she continued to ask in a low voice, "Have you been cursing the Imperial Concubine and Prince Kang's family like this every day since you came to the cold palace?"
The maid nodded desperately, "Yes!"
"What else? How is your life here, Madam? Has your share been deducted?"
"How should I put it? Actually, I feel that your Majesty's life in the cold palace is not much different from before.
The allowance has not been deducted, if you must make a distinction.
Maybe the Queen can’t cause any more trouble.”
Azure: “….”
This is the first time I have seen a concubine who was banished to the cold palace but could live so well.
"The Empress is concerned about Consort Shu, so she specifically asked me to bring some food here. You can put it here while I go in to see the Empress."
Bilan handed the bamboo basket to the palace maid and went in.
It was quite warm in the inner hall, and there was a faint fragrance in the air.
Concubine Shu was lying on a soft and comfortable couch, holding a storybook in her hand. She kept cursing the imperial concubine and Prince Kang's family while reading it.
Azure: “…”
"This servant pays homage to Her Majesty the Concubine Shu."
Bilan saluted loudly, which frightened Concubine Shu so much that the book in her hand almost flew away.
"Bilan? When did you come in? You came in without a word! You scared me to death!"
Concubine Shu frowned and started cursing.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I just came in and was worried about disturbing you. The Queen asked me to bring some food to visit you. I have already given the food to the palace maids."
Bilan explained, and Shufei nodded, changed her position and lay on her side, and asked Bilan in a somewhat annoyed and sarcastic tone.
"Cousin Queen, have you finally remembered me, your cousin?"
"Your Majesty, the Queen has done a lot for you these days..."
Bilan simply recounted the incident.
Concubine Shu's temper also subsided a little, and she narrowed her eyes, "So that's how it is. Then, after all, it's just that old bitch Zheng Qiuyan and that little bitch Concubine Kang who played a trick on my cousin!
"Where's the Emperor? Does the Emperor know about this? Will the Emperor just follow Zheng Qiuyan like this? Will he have to wait until she gives in before I can leave the cold palace?!"
