"Yesterday, Concubine An and Concubine Rong were also frightened and almost wrongly accused by that bitch. I'll give you two vases each as a reward to calm you down."
An Binrong's eyes lit up when she agreed. The Imperial Concubine actually gave them something as a reward? This was the first time in history.
The imperial concubine was arrogant and jealous, and she wanted to kill all the concubines, but she actually gave them rewards.
This made them feel like they were being treated specially and were a little surprised.
He immediately smiled and kowtowed to express his gratitude.
Jiang Yan's face turned pale and blue. The imperial concubine called her a bitch in person, but she didn't dare to refute.
She could only watch helplessly as the two vases that belonged to her were divided up.
She just felt that today was the saddest day since she entered the palace. She was humiliated and looked down upon by others.
These people were bullying her in their words and deeds.
But what Xu Jinyi said next caught her off guard, and she even felt like she was being roasted on fire.
"I did something wrong before. As the emperor, Your Majesty should treat everyone equally and let my sisters have children for the royal family."
"I am the sinner, and that is why the Emperor still has no children. Now I finally understand."
"Starting tonight, all the sisters will take turns to sleep with me. Let Concubine An start first."
"I hope you will serve His Majesty well in the future and work hard to give birth to a prince. I will notify you on time on the day of the person who will sleep with him, and strive to ensure that His Majesty receives all the love he deserves."
The concubines looked at each other with wide eyes, their faces filled with flattery, and then they all knelt down to express their gratitude.
Maybe it was because she was used to treating people harshly, but now that the imperial concubine spoke like this, people felt that she was very kind.
So those who expressed their gratitude actually had some sincerity in their heart.
After all, the imperial concubine's status and family background are there, and they can never surpass her.
She monopolized His Majesty, and the concubines could only stay alone in their empty rooms every night.
Everyone thought that His Majesty did not favor them because of the Imperial Concubine, but they did not know that the Imperial Concubine was as healthy as they were.
Jiang Yan widened his eyes and gasped for breath, not understanding how things had turned out like this.
Doesn't the Imperial Concubine love the Emperor very much? Doesn't she not allow anyone to sleep with her?
How could this happen? Why would someone suddenly be arranged to sleep with him?
Isn’t she afraid that the emperor will no longer favor her?
Jiang Yan was not only panicked, but also stood there in a daze.
If the imperial concubine really arranged for someone to sleep with her every night, what would she do? Could His Majesty resist the daily temptation?
Then wouldn't he be able to come to her every night? What if he couldn't help himself... What if another concubine got pregnant...
The more Jiang Yan thought about it, the more frightened he became. He spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted.
Xu Jinyi covered her mouth and nose in disgust: "It's really unlucky. You have polluted my palace. Let's leave it at that for today. Concubine An will dress up nicely tonight, and then we can all go back."
After everyone left, Qing'er spoke with a puzzled look on her face: "Your Majesty, why are you pushing His Majesty away? What if they give birth to the eldest prince first?"
"Aren't you afraid, Your Majesty, that His Majesty will favor someone else? In the future, when you are in the palace..."
Xu Jinyi pursed her lips and smiled: "Afraid? Even if I am not favored, who can bully me?"
When Xier thought of the Xu family's status, she was speechless for a moment. Her queen's status was indeed unshakable.
"But aren't those two vases the Empress likes? How can we give them away?"
Xu Jinyi looked at the innocent Qing'er. It seemed that although she was loyal, she was not very smart.
But sometimes being too smart can be a bad thing.
"What do you think of His Majesty's treatment of me?"
"Very good. His Majesty has given Her Majesty gifts these past two days and often comes to eat with Her Majesty. He treats Her Majesty very well."
"Then take a look at this entire palace and think about what His Majesty has rewarded you with."
"Think again why he never stays here?"
Qing'er is not a fool. She is not stupid enough to be arranged by Mrs. Xu to be her personal maid.
After Xu Jinyi's reminder, I immediately understood.
She glared at him with a look of panic: "Your Majesty? Did His Majesty deliberately put you in this position of influence? To make you the object of jealousy of these concubines?!"
Thinking about the past few years, Qing'er gasped: "Your Majesty, you are so sincere to His Majesty. Why?"
Xu Jinyi said sarcastically: "Why? For his true love."
In fact, once some things are pointed out, the truth of those things will easily come to light.
Qing'er immediately thought of Concubine Jiang, who had her own unique school of thought.
Concubine Jiang was a breath of fresh air in the harem. She didn't care about anything and never got involved in harem disputes.
It seemed as if she didn't care about the emperor at all. Even when she was assigned to Changqiu Palace, which was the farthest away from the Yangxin Palace, she never complained.
But if you think about it carefully, Changqiu Palace is as big as the imperial concubine's palace.
Thinking about it, Qing'er almost shed tears for Xu Jinyi: "Your Majesty, what should we do? How could the emperor treat you like this? If this is really the case, what should we do in the future?"
"What to do? Of course, retaliate."
Xu Jinyi took out a handful of gold leaves and handed them to Qing'er: "Go to the Xinzheku and retrieve all the people I brought as dowry."
Qing'er's eyes lit up: "I'll go right away."
Not long after Qing'er left, Liuxiang came in to report that her mother had arrived.
Knowing that her mother's arrival might be because of the three letters, she got up and went out to meet her mother.
"Your humble servant pays homage to—"
"Mom, why are you still bowing? Why are you and I being so distant?"
"Liuxiang, go to the Imperial Household Department and get a box of fine tea."
"Yes, my lady."
Liuxiang originally wanted to stay and listen to what the two of them were talking about, but she had no choice but to leave.
After the outsiders were gone, Madam Xu took Xu Jinyi's hand and sat down: "Yier, what's the matter with the letter? Is the emperor treating you badly? What did he do?"
Early this morning, her brother and son rushed back from the military camp and told her the contents of the letter.
Ask her if something happened, otherwise why she suddenly stopped supporting the emperor's faction.
They were also asked to find excuses to bring down those who had been promoted to the position and belonged to the emperor.
Xu's mother was immediately very worried, fearing that her daughter would be bullied in the harem, so she hurried over.
Looking at her mother's caring eyes, Xu Jinyi felt warm in her heart.
Get everything out of the way.
Hearing this, Xu's mother was so angry that she fell backwards, her vision went dark, and she almost fainted.
"What?! How dare the dog emperor do this? Well, my Xu family has done so much for him, and yet he is just feeding an ungrateful wolf."
"Isn't he afraid that my Xu family will bring him down?!" Xu's mother was furious, and her tone was cruel, as if she wanted to kill someone.
"Your mother originally disagreed with your entry into the palace, and the dog emperor dared not treat you well and resorted to such despicable means to plot against you."
"The dog emperor must be tired of living, isn't he? I knew he wasn't a good man, but you still insisted on entering the palace."
Xu's mother was so angry that she slapped Xu Jinyi.
