Chapter 17: A Weak Concubine's Daughter? A Brutal and Bloodthirsty Emperor Who Has No Heir



The Queen Mother did not blame Jiang Yi, but comforted Jiang Yi instead, which surprised Jiang Yi.

Jiang Yi quickly said, "The Emperor and the Queen Mother have the final say. I will not be wronged."

"Why call me Queen Mother? Just call me Mother." The Queen Mother looked at Jiang Yi lovingly, "The Emperor likes you, and I love you too."

In fact, the concubines all had petrified faces. When they first entered the palace, the empress dowager did not look like this.

Jiang Yi was obviously flattered, "How could I have deserved to be so loved by the Queen Mother?" After saying this, she burst into tears.

"You are certainly worthy." The Queen Mother patted Jiang Yi's hand. "Good boy, now both Anle and Shan'er have learned their lesson. They have privately told me how wrong they were and how they regret not being able to go back to the way they were. They will never treat you badly again. See if you can forgive them."

"Of course, if you don't want to forgive me, I can't force you to do so. After all, you are the victim, and the harm you suffered before was not light."

"I just feel sorry for the emperor. I think the emperor must be feeling uncomfortable with the situation between him and Anle."

The Queen Mother's words were very polite, and it didn't sound like she was talking to a newcomer to the palace.

But her meaning was very clear. She wanted Jiang Yi to plead for Princess Anle and Jiang Shan and ask the emperor to let them go.

The Queen Mother kept a very humble attitude, so Jiang Yi did not feel the slightest bit annoyed with her.

She thought for a moment and said, "I will find a way to calm the emperor down. I also don't want any trouble to arise between the emperor and the princess. The empress dowager loves the emperor and his daughter. She is willing to put aside the past grudge for the sake of the emperor and the princess because the emperor treats me well."

She was afraid that Princess Anle would not accept her "good intentions".

She spoke sincerely, and it was obvious that her words came from the heart. The empress dowager couldn't help but look at her with a new respect.

She looks weak, but she is actually a very generous person.

The Queen Mother smiled even more, "If Anle doesn't know what's good for him, not only will the Emperor not respond, but I won't respond either."

After talking for a while, the empress dowager felt a little tired and asked the concubines to kneel down and pay their respects.

Jiang Yi left first.

The imperial concubine winked at Lady Li, who was closest to her. Lady Li immediately stepped forward to block Jiang Yi's way and said, "This concubine greets the imperial concubine."

"Oh, Imperial Noble Consort, why are you pushing me?"

Concubine Li fell directly in front of Jiang Yi.

Jiang Yi said blankly: "When did I push you?"

Lady Li said, "You are truly worthy of being the Imperial Noble Consort personally appointed by the Emperor. You are truly arrogant and domineering. I only came to greet you out of kindness. How have I offended you that you pushed me down?"

"The Imperial Noble Consort doesn't like me. She just pushed me down today. Will she kill me tomorrow? I'd rather die by crashing my head against the palace wall today than be killed by the Imperial Noble Consort tomorrow."

With just a few words, she put a hat of domineering on Jiang Yi's head.

Seeing this, the people around also came forward to check on Lady Li's injuries.

"Miss Li, are you okay?"

"Royal Concubine, even though you are of a higher rank than us, you cannot be so unreasonable. How did Concubine Li offend you?"

"Do you know that Concubine Li was once pregnant with the Emperor's child, but she suffered a miscarriage and was injured. Since then, she has been relying on medicine to barely stay alive and can't withstand the slightest bump. Do you want to kill Concubine Li?"

All the chattering voices were attacking Jiang Yi, as if Jiang Yi was an unforgivable person.

The imperial concubine looked at this scene with great satisfaction.

The Queen Mother was afraid of things, but she was not afraid of anything.

Jiang Yi caused her daughter to be banned from entering the palace, and she would always make Jiang Yi pay a heavy price.

So what if she's the Imperial Noble Consort?

She is just a simple and naive little girl who has just arrived.

With all her years of experience in the palace, it would be very easy for her to crush Jiang Yi. Today's experience was just an appetizer.

When Jiang Yi's reputation for arrogance spread, she asked her brother to report Jiang Yi and asked all the ministers to jointly submit a petition to depose Jiang Yi and demote him to a commoner.

But the imperial concubine never thought of being the bad guy herself. On the contrary, she would speak for Jiang Yi today to establish her good reputation as a virtuous woman.

Comparing the two, the emperor naturally knew which one was better.

Thinking of the emperor's handsome profile, the imperial concubine's face showed a moment of obsession.

When the imperial concubine entered the palace, she was just the daughter of a minor official. When she saw that the emperor was handsome and extraordinary, she fell in love with him.

Later, she gave birth to the emperor's only daughter, Princess Anle, and was directly named a noble concubine by the emperor.

There have been countless concubines in the palace over the years, but the emperor only treats her a little differently.

But now there is another Jiang Yi, and the emperor punished Anle even more cruelly for Jiang Yi. The imperial concubine was speaking up for her daughter and for herself.

How could a mere concubine's daughter have the qualifications to surpass her and become the imperial concubine? She gave birth to a daughter for the emperor. What did Jiang Yi have to do with it?

The imperial concubine saw Jiang Yi surrounded by people and criticized them one after another. Jiang Yi kept defending herself, but no one listened to her at all.

The emperor's woman is a natural enemy.

These concubines were not speaking up for Concubine Li, they simply couldn't stand Jiang Yi being the Imperial Noble Concubine, and they thought Jiang Yi was easy to bully, so they used Concubine Li as a cover.

Seeing that it was almost done, the imperial concubine was about to step forward to act as a "peacemaker" when the emperor came from behind.

The imperial concubine was about to pay her respects to the emperor, but the emperor passed her by and went straight towards Jiang Yi.

Jiang Yi's red eyes immediately filled with tears when she saw the emperor. She had thought that the empress dowager might make things difficult for her, so she asked someone to call the emperor over, but she didn't expect that the empress dowager didn't make things difficult for her, but for the concubines.
