Chapter 1 The Royal Concubine
"Spread your legs!"
A cold voice sounded, Shen Lingshu opened her eyes, and saw an old nanny in palace dress, with cold hands touching her body.
"you……"
As soon as Shen Lingshu opened her mouth, someone covered her mouth. She struggled, and a maid came on each side, holding down her hands and feet. Only then did she realize that she was actually naked.
“Second Miss Shen, cooperate a little, and you will suffer less!”
The old lady's hands touched her all over, especially the places that she was too embarrassed to talk about. It was like she was going through a gynecological internal examination. The rough movements made her so painful that she couldn't think.
She was like a pig or sheep waiting to be slaughtered until the process was over and the nanny left, throwing her clothes at her.
"Shen Lingshu, you have a great figure, a plump pelvis, and a good appearance for a boy!"
As the nanny's announcement sounded, Shen Lingshu put on her clothes expressionlessly, but her mind was in a mess. She had entered a book, no, a drama!
She is about to star in "The Legend of the Harem". When she accepted the role, she felt that the growth line of the second female lead was very good. Although she is only a second female lead, she also started as a cannon fodder female supporting role, survived nine deaths, and ascended to the throne of queen!
No, to be precise, she is the target queen who is specifically there to take the bullet for Bai Yueguang!
She gave birth to seven children in ten years, but all of them died in intrigue!
Her life was a sad one. She was in her thirties and her body was as frail as an old man. She had been a reproductive tool all her life. She enjoyed the position of queen but did not get any dignity at all.
She tried very hard to survive...
“Miss Shen, I’m sorry for the offense.”
Behind a screen, her elder sister Shen Lingyi also arrived for the physical examination.
The nanny who was cold just now now had a smile on her face and her actions were gentle, which was a world apart from her.
They both have the surname Chen, one is the legitimate wife and the other is an illegitimate child, and they flatter the powerful and look down on the weak.
Chuxiu Palace.
Shen Lingshu looked at this quaint house, but his heart kept sinking.
"Congratulations, Second Miss Shen. Concubine Rou has ordered Second Miss Shen to enter the Linwang Mansion to serve the prince."
When Grandma Gao announced the good news, Shen Lingshu instantly smiled like a flower and handed the purse she had just prepared to Grandma Gao: "Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty."
Grandma Gao took the reward money calmly and said, "The sedan chair will be here soon."
"Thank you, Madam Gao." Shen Lingshu quietly stuffed another purse into her pocket.
After Grandma Gao left, Shen Lingshu turned around, and the smile on his face disappeared instantly.
According to the original plot, after entering the mansion, she was to be given a flower petal bath by Concubine Fang to cleanse her body. Unfortunately, she was given a drug that could make people infertile!
"Congratulations, sister, you have entered the Lin Wang Mansion as a concubine. You must serve His Highness the Lin Wang well in the future and do not bring shame to the Shen family."
A charming voice sounded, Shen Lingshu turned around, Shen Lingyi in a pink palace dress was as innocent and charming as described in the script, she was spoiled when she grew up!
If she hadn't emphasized the pronunciation of the word "concubine", and if it weren't for the gloating look in her eyes, others would probably have thought it was just a deep sisterly love.
"Congratulations to my sister for entering the Crown Prince's Palace as a concubine."
Shen Lingshu lowered his eyes and congratulated. The heroine was timid in the Shen family.
"You should be congratulated. Unlike concubines, concubines are included in the imperial royal family."
Shen Lingyi leaned over and talked about the difference between a concubine and a concubine in her ear. She looked at her with a boastful look on her face and said with regret: "In the future, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us sisters to meet each other."
A concubine in a royal palace doesn't even have the right to return to her parents' home.
"My sister is about to enter the Linwang Mansion. Unlike me, I have to go home tomorrow to prepare my dowry, so I won't be with her for now."
When Shen Lingyi talked about her dowry, there was a look of superiority in her eyes. So what if she is beautiful?
Wasn't it just carried into the palace in a sedan chair?
Shen Lingyi paused, turned around and said, "By the way, I wish my sister a quick pregnancy, and a mother will be honored by her child."
Everyone in the whole country of Mu Ning knew that Prince Lin had no heir. In the huge backyard of the palace, there were at least eight concubines and maids given by the Emperor and Concubine Rou, but none of them gave birth to children.
Shen Lingshu looked at her back with a sullen face, a hint of sarcasm at the corner of her lips. Wait until the prince knows that Shen Lingyi is not his savior?
When the crown prince is deposed and reinstated twice and is finally imprisoned, I hope Shen Lingyi can still smile.
…
Linwang Mansion, Qiutang Courtyard.
"Beautiful lady Hai, please be kind, concubine."
"Shen's daughter, please be kind, Concubine."
Hai Jiaren and Shen Lingshu bowed and greeted Concubine Fang, who had the highest status in Prince Lin's Mansion.
"Look up."
Concubine Fang's cold voice sounded.
Hai Jiaren and Shen Lingshu both raised their heads slightly.
Sitting in the main seat, Concubine Fang was wearing a purple long dress with hundreds of butterflies on it. Her ink-black hair was tied up in a high bun, and her head was full of pearls and jade, making her look rich and elegant.
Concubine Fang looked at the two of them.
Hai is plump, with a thin waist and big hips, and it is obvious that she is good at giving birth.
News came from the palace about Shen Lingshu, who was suitable for men...
Concubine Fang paused while holding the teacup and took another look. This person looked like the late Princess Lin, with eyes and eyebrows that were 50% similar?
Concubine Fang took a sip of tea, collected her thoughts, and said, "Now that you have entered Prince Lin's mansion, the most important thing is to serve the prince well and get pregnant as soon as possible."
"Madam Gui, take Madam Hai and Madam Shen to the side to bathe and cleanse themselves, and serve them well."
Concubine Fang gave the order, and she said with a smile: "Since you are going to serve the prince, you must use the best. A flower petal bath with a fragrant aroma will surely please the prince."
"Thank you, Concubine."
Hai Jiaren stood up with a look of joy on her face.
"Thank you, Concubine."
Shen Lingshu lowered her eyes, and heard Aunt Gui's voice in her ears: "Two concubines, please come this way. The jasmine flower is for Concubine Shen, and the rose flower is for Concubine Hai."
In the side hall, separated by a screen, there are two bathtubs filled with the scent of jasmine and roses, filled with hot steam and a fragrant aroma.
“It smells so good.”
Hai Jiaren took a deep breath and praised, "Madam Gui, thank Concubine for me. I love roses the most."
Hai Jiaren secretly stuffed some silver into Gui Mama's pocket. Gui Mama said coldly, "Madam Hai, there's no need for the silver. It will cause misunderstandings."
“…”
Hai Jiaren was holding the purse, and her hand suddenly froze.
"Undress, get on the bed, and have your body examined."
When Aunt Gui's cold voice sounded, Hai Jia saw the maids coming over to take off their clothes. Hai Jiaren tightly protected herself and asked, "Aunt Hai, the palace has already examined her."
"This old servant wants to check whether the two concubines have had their periods. Otherwise, how can I serve the prince properly?"
Nanny Gui winked at the maids, and Hai Jiaren had her clothes taken off by the two maids, one on each side.
"I didn't come to the sun."
Hai Jiaren's face turned as red as a cooked shrimp. After a while, even her bellyband was gone. When the cool breeze blew, even the July weather gave her goose bumps.
"Whether he has come or not, I have to come and see for myself."
Aunt Gui's hand touched it from top to bottom...
Shen Lingshu even saw Aunt Gui touching and pinching her as if to humiliate her, and Hai Jiaren was so embarrassed that she burst into tears.
"Madam Shen!" After examining Hai Jiaren, Nanny Gui looked at Shen Lingyi beside her. The two maids were staring at her covetously.
Shen Lingshu undressed directly: "I can do it myself."
The bright red bellyband, embroidered with mandarin ducks playing in the water, made her skin look whiter than snow.
Hai Jiaren, who was putting on her clothes, watched this scene and hugged her clothes tightly, her nails digging into her flesh. With Shen Lingshu in front of her, was there any chance for her to stand out?
