Got it, this guy's here to poach our employees!
Jian Yang gave him a meaningful look.
Wow, bro, you've managed to steal from the emperor's wife!
This person is either incredibly brave or has cerebral palsy!
No normal person would do something like that.
However, it's not entirely incomprehensible.
After all, Prince Chen was born to Consort Hui, and was not a sibling of the Emperor.
In addition, it is said that Prince Chen was slightly better than the emperor in both wisdom and ability, and was even more favored by the late emperor.
But the emperor had a stroke of luck; he caught the eye of the Prince of Dingbian and was put on the throne.
King Chen must be resentful...
However, Jian Yang had no interest in seizing power.
She just wants to be a salted fish.
She was just very curious as to why Prince Chen wanted to win her over.
She leaned closer to Prince Chen and asked in a low voice, "I am already the Empress, second only to the Emperor. I wonder what else Your Highness Prince Chen can offer me?"
Prince Chen's eyes lit up, and he immediately thought that his plan to win him over had worked. He was overjoyed and said, "I can give you the merits of your father and brothers for generations, the unparalleled glory of your family, and an unshakeable position!"
oh.
It turns out it was all just empty promises.
Jian Yang suddenly felt completely drained.
If Prince Chen had promised her 50,000 taels of gold, she would have sold the dog emperor outright.
After all, it doesn't matter who you work for, right?
As an employee, of course I'll do things for whoever pays the most.
But who knew that this Prince Chen would be so stingy!
They just talk empty words to fool people.
Jian Yang decided to teach him a lesson.
"Your Highness, I need to administer acupuncture to you, which may be a little painful."
Prince Chen did not receive a reply from Jian Yang, but he was not in a hurry. He simply nodded and smiled, saying, "Thank you for your trouble, Your Majesty."
Jian Yang didn't respond. Although she smiled gently, she was ruthless in her actions.
We specifically target acupoints that cause intense pain!
That was incredibly fast, ruthless, and accurate!
Even a grown man like Prince Chen was finding it difficult to withstand this kind of torture, which resembled that of Rong Momo.
Even if he were an idiot, he could tell that Jian Yang was doing it on purpose!
But he could endure it.
Even in the most painful moments, you can still face life with a smile.
So what followed was one of them desperately stabbing and the other laughing nonstop.
The concubines, unaware of the true situation, only felt that the way the Empress was administering acupuncture seemed to exude a fierce aura...
I couldn't help but silently vow in my heart that I would never provoke this wicked woman again!
Only Consort Yu thought differently.
She witnessed firsthand the feud between Jian Yang and Prince Chen today, and knew that this was clearly a blatant act of revenge.
But the sight of Prince Chen smiling more and more affectionately filled her with immense heartache!
Her beautiful eyes were fixed on the two of them, her nails digging deep into her flesh without her noticing.
Half an hour later, Jian Yang finally got tired of playing.
King Chen was also pricked like a hedgehog by him.
His body was covered with countless needle marks.
Even if it were Rong Momo herself, she would have to admit defeat.
Taking advantage of everyone's inattention, Jian Yang sprinkled the antidote into the water.
The snow-white powder quickly dissolved in water and was then absorbed by King Chen.
This is actually the real way to detoxify.
As for acupuncture, it really was an opportunity for revenge.
"If you soak for another half an hour, His Highness Prince Chen will surely recover."
Jian Yang casually uttered these words, then leisurely led a group of palace servants and concubines away from the side hall.
When the emperor and empress dowager learned that she had successfully cured Prince Chen's strange illness, they naturally praised her highly.
But this did not diminish Jian Yang's determination to resign.
Just kidding, managing the harem was already hard enough.
If everyone comes to her for a minor ailment like a headache or fever, she'll be exhausted!
No, I have to resign. Nothing I say will work!
"Empress, what reward do you desire?" Just as Jian Yang was internally ranting, the Empress Dowager suddenly asked.
Jian Yang was about to blurt out the word "resign," but then she thought that if she said it, she would definitely lose her head.
So she obediently replied, "Your Majesty, I have heard that Physician Wang of the Imperial Hospital is skilled in massage. It just so happens that my shoulders and back have been a little uncomfortable recently. I hope that Your Majesty will grant me permission to have Physician Wang treat me!"
That's a very skillful way of putting it.
While it appeared that she was asking the imperial physician to treat her, she was actually subtly expressing that she was overworked and unwell!
Presumably, the Empress Dowager and the Emperor, being shrewd individuals, would understand the unspoken meaning behind her words.
Sure enough, the dog emperor probably knew that he had been exploiting her a bit too much lately, so he very considerately turned to the Empress Dowager and said, "Mother, the Empress has been working too hard lately and should take a rest."
The Empress Dowager nodded and said to the nanny behind her, "Go to the Imperial Hospital and convey my decree that Imperial Physician Wang should pay his respects to the Empress for the next three days."
This means giving her three days off!
Jian Yang was so happy she almost jumped up from the spot.
At least this mother and son have a conscience!
...
Although the emperor did not assign Jian Yang any extra work in the past three days, the concubines in the harem were restless every day.
They're always bickering or arguing, making a big fuss over the smallest things!
It's incredibly annoying.
The emperor's precious holiday was ruined by his concubines!
She was so angry she wanted to tear her hair out, and naturally she blamed the dog emperor for it.
On the night the holiday was about to end, Lianxia suddenly ran excitedly into the bedroom.
Jian Yang, who was taking a break from her busy schedule to do yoga, saw her like this and asked in confusion, "Is a dog chasing you?"
Lianxia shook her head and said, "Your Majesty, Prince Chen sent several boxes of rare treasures from his residence, which are currently placed in the front hall!"
