Chapter 11: The Emperor Without Heirs VS the Beautiful Concubine (11)



After Madam Gu handed the prescription to her daughter, she took out a stack of banknotes and stuffed them into her hand, saying, "This is what your father and mother gave you. Don't let yourself be wronged in the palace."

"Although you are a noble concubine, you must have a share of the profits if you want to use it. If you exceed the amount, you have to spend money."

"Take this money. Don't think that there is no money spent in the palace. You won't be worried if you have money in your hands." Mrs. Gu warned.

Although Mrs. Gu's family was not a merchant family, her aunt married a merchant family, and her maternal grandfather's family was also a merchant family, so Mrs. Gu actually had quite a large dowry.

Her family background is indeed not as good as the Gu family, but in fact, in terms of money alone, her family is not much worse than the Gu family.

When she got married, her parents gave her a lot of dowry because she married into a wealthy family like the Gu family.

Later, she managed the business well, and the dowry under her name and the properties under the name of the Gu family brought in a lot of income, so she was able to give her daughter more than 100,000 taels.

Madam Gu looked at her daughter with pity and said, "Originally, Mother had prepared a large dowry for you, hoping that when you got married, you would be given a large wedding gift."

"But now you..." Mrs. Gu did not explain, but Wushuang knew what she meant.

Although she entered the palace as a noble concubine, she was not the legal wife after all. There was no wedding, so she definitely had no dowry.

When she entered the palace, her family gave her tens of thousands of taels of silver notes to bring into the palace, and the rest were some clothes and her daily necessities.

She didn't bring the dowry that her parents had prepared for her.

Wushuang smiled and patted his mother's hand, saying, "Don't feel sorry, mother. The dowry you prepared for your daughter will definitely be of use."

After all, she is going to be the queen, so of course her dowry must be delivered to the coronation ceremony.

Mrs. Gu understood what her daughter said, and her original regret was reduced a lot.

"The other ladies in the palace didn't give you any trouble, did they?" Madam Gu asked softly, "Only Noble Concubine Ming, did she give you any trouble?"

It was really surprising that the most popular candidate for queen ten years ago was only given the position of noble concubine when she entered the palace.

Over the past ten years, many people have hoped that Concubine Ming would become the empress, but Dongfang Che refused to make her the empress on the grounds that she had no children.

Mrs. Gu was worried that her daughter would be embarrassed by Concubine Ming.

Compared to her daughter who had just entered the palace, Concubine Ming had been in the palace for nearly ten years. She must have a lot of things to do in the palace, and she must have few staff.

If Concubine Ming, who has a deep background in the palace, were to deal with her own daughter, it would not be so easy to resist.

Wushuang smiled and said, "Don't worry, mother. No matter how powerful Concubine Ming is, can she compare to the Empress Dowager?"

That person is the champion of palace fighting. If Concubine Ming wants to go beyond the Empress Dowager and touch her precious grandson, she should consider whether her ability is really that strong.

"Mother, it's rare for you to come to the palace. Please accompany your daughter for a walk. Mother, you can stay and have lunch with your daughter later, or you can rest in the palace tonight?" Wushuang said.

"I can have lunch with you, but I won't stay overnight in the palace." Madam Gu refused.

"Your father is waiting for me at home. I have to go back and tell him the news about you, so I won't stay in the palace."

The main reason is that Madam Gu heard that His Majesty often stayed at her daughter's Yunqi Palace recently. What if she stayed at the palace and ran into His Majesty?

Let’s go home.

Wushuang and Madam Gu left Yunqi Palace and came to the Imperial Garden with a large group of palace maids and eunuchs.

Although Dongfang Che's harem is relatively small, there are only five people above the rank of concubine, and only three among the nine concubines. The rest of the lower-ranking concubines add up to only a dozen or so.

But there were many palace maids and eunuchs serving in the harem, and the imperial garden in the palace was also very beautifully maintained.

Wushuang likes the environment of the Imperial Garden very much. As a pomegranate spirit, she has a natural liking for plants.

"Oh, how come the Imperial Concubine has the leisure to come out and stroll around the Imperial Garden? Isn't the Imperial Concubine newly pregnant? For the sake of the dragon heir in her belly, shouldn't she be resting in bed?"

Wushuang was enjoying the flowers with Mrs. Gu, but then a stupid guy jumped out and provoked her.

Wushuang looked back and didn't recognize him.

Since he is someone you don’t know, there is no need to pay attention to him.

The woman who spoke in a yin-yang voice was very angry when she saw that she ignored her. She said, "Your Highness, how frivolous you are! I have even greeted you, and yet you are so arrogant?"

Mrs. Gu was unhappy when she heard someone mocking her daughter and wanted to speak out.

Wushuang stopped her, turned around and looked at the woman and asked, "Who are you?"

When the woman heard her first question was who she was, her expression became even uglier.

Imperial Concubine Gu is indeed frivolous and arrogant.

If such a woman really gave birth to a prince and became the queen, would the other concubines still have a good life?

The woman looked at Wushuang's belly with a gloomy look, wondering why Wushuang didn't have an abortion earlier?

"The Imperial Concubine is indeed so high and mighty that she doesn't even know who I am. I am Concubine Meng." said the woman.

"Jieyu?" Wushuang smiled when he heard that.

"Then do you know what my identity is?" Wushuang asked.

Meng Jieyu said, "Of course I know, you are the Imperial Concubine."

"Since you know this, you should understand that I am a First-Rank Imperial Concubine, and you are only a Third-Rank Imperial Concubine."

"Who gave you the guts to contradict me?" Wushuang looked at Concubine Meng seriously and asked, "Concubine Meng has been in the palace for several years, how come you haven't even learned the palace rules?"

"What? According to Concubine Meng, when I, the imperial concubine, see you, the concubine, do I have to bow and kowtow to you?" Wushuang asked with a cold face.
