"It's not easy for your Majesty to keep pregnant. You can send the princess to my place and let her play with Jiangjiang."
Empress Duan said with a smile, "They miss each other after not seeing each other for a few days, especially after they learned to talk. Le Wen would keep saying 'Jiang Jiang Long, Jiang Jiang Short' while playing."
"The same is true for the general."
Passing by a large flower garden, Queen Duan stopped, pointed at a peony flower, and asked the palace maid to pick it.
What Sheng Xiyan didn't expect was that the queen took the peony flower and actually pinned it on her head.
"This red peony is bright and elegant, and it suits Sister Sheng very well."
Sheng Xiyan thought of the peony flower that Xuan Ling had pinned for her that day, and the people in the palace said that peony flowers were exclusive to the queen, so she felt a little embarrassed.
Especially when facing such a gentle and virtuous queen.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. I don't have a sister. If I did, she would definitely be as gentle as the Empress."
Queen Duan was very happy when she heard this and walked forward again, with Sheng Xiyan carefully supporting her.
After walking around for a while, pregnant women tend to get tired, so Sheng Xiyan respectfully escorted Queen Duan onto the phoenix chariot.
The two people on the other side of the garden had been staring at it for a long time.
Concubine Jia stamped her feet and said, "The Queen actually gave a peony flower to a concubine under the Nine Concubines. This is too disrespectful!"
Concubine Liang would not miss any opportunity to make Concubine Jia lose control, and fanned the flames, saying, "That's right, the Queen is used to being a coward. Sister Luan, you are the one who is generous. The peony flower should be given to your sister."
When Concubine Jia saw the Queen leave, she shouted, "I'm going to give this ignorant bitch a good fight!"
Concubine Liang immediately said, "Oh, my stomach is uncomfortable. I have to go back to the palace immediately. Sister Luan, please don't be soft-hearted and deal with this vixen."
She held her belly and left the garden with the help of a palace maid.
Sheng Xiyan and Hua Xia quickly walked out of the imperial garden. Seeing Concubine Jia coming towards them with a fierce look, she almost wanted to hold two big swords in her hands to match her indignant expression.
"This concubine greets the Empress Jiafei."
Concubine Jia approached and ripped off the red peony on Sheng Xiyan's head, saying sarcastically, "You lowly thing, are you worthy of wearing such a beautiful peony?"
He threw the peony flowers onto the ground and stomped them hard with his Dengyun shoes until they were crushed to pieces.
Sheng Xiyan smiled, her calmness making Concubine Jia seem like she was just being ugly.
The most frightening thing in an argument is encountering an opponent like this: one is jumping up and down and almost getting angry to death, while the other is surprisingly calm.
Sheng Xiyan was not angry at all. She even stepped forward and took Concubine Jia's hand in a friendly manner, praising her: "Concubine Jia's hands are so beautiful. The color of the nail polish she chose makes her fingers look even more rosy and delicate. Even this golden gem armor makes your hands look even more beautiful than snow."
The flattery suppressed Jia Fei's anger. She loved being praised for her beauty the most.
He snorted coldly, "Really? You have quite a bit of vision."
Sheng Xiyan said sincerely, "Empress Jiafei is a beauty, comparable to Chang'e, but sometimes she is easily taken advantage of by others. I really feel sorry for her."
Concubine Jia was confused and shook her hand away. "What do you mean? Speak human language."
Sheng Xiyan smiled faintly and said, "Just now, I saw you and Concubine Liang together, why didn't she come over?"
Concubine Jia thought about Concubine Liang and wondered if she had a stomachache. Qiulin, who was standing next to her, couldn't bear it any longer and stepped forward to remind her, "Your Majesty, the wind is blowing. Let us accompany you back."
Sheng Xiyan leaned forward as if to whisper something, and said mysteriously, "Empress Jia may not know yet, but the Emperor has already asked Empress Liang to assist in managing the six palaces."
Upon hearing this, Concubine Jia raised her eyebrows, "Why does she do that?"
"I'll take my leave."
Sheng Xiyan took Hua Xia out of the imperial garden and could imagine the crazy look of Concubine Jia behind them.
"No, I have to go find my aunt. I have to help manage the six palaces!"
Concubine Jia impatiently got on the picking stick and rushed to the Cining Palace.
Hua Xia covered her mouth and laughed, "My lady, this trick of yours is really effective. Not only does it prevent Concubine Jia from getting angry at you, it also alienates her relationship with Concubine Liang."
Sheng Xiyan knew that Xuan Ling did not let Concubine Shu assist in managing the six palaces because Concubine Shu had just bullied her.
"Let them fight and make a fuss, then they won't have time to pick on me."
Concubine Jia went to the Cining Palace and cried, which gave the Empress Dowager a headache.
"Aunt, please tell the Emperor to let Luan'er assist in managing the six palaces. Isn't it okay for me, Aunt, to love Luan'er the most?"
She lay on the empress dowager's knees and cried, "Liang Fei has been chosen, Luan'er is not convinced, aunt!"
The Empress Dowager was annoyed by the noise and ordered, "Give the sandalwood and purple jade pendant fan that the Emperor sent the other day to Concubine Jia."
After a while, the sandalwood purple jade pendant fan was presented. Concubine Jia took it and admired it. "Thank you, aunt. It's hot now, Luan'er hung it on the fan to add more luxury."
"Go back, I'm tired."
Concubine Jia got something good, and seeing that the Queen Mother was unhappy, she didn't dare to pester her any further, "Luan'er, I'll take my leave."
After she left, the Queen Mother teased, "Who did she inherit this stupidity from?"
The head nanny consoled her, "Empress Jia, you are just a bit naive."
The Queen Mother complained, "A promising young woman has been misled by the Su family. With her current condition, even if the throne of the harem's mistress is handed to her, she won't be able to keep it. She can only endure it until the right time comes for her to rise to prominence."
"How can you be so simple-minded? I'm so angry." The Queen Mother was depressed and felt that she had given up on her career.
Although the Empress Dowager was over forty years old, she was naturally beautiful, with skin so smooth and graceful that it looked elegant and graceful. When she was young, she was obviously a stunning beauty.
Even her figure is not bloated. If someone didn't know her, they would think she was someone's elegant mistress.
In Zhongcui Palace, Concubine Shu was furious when she learned that Concubine Liang was going to assist in managing the six palaces.
