Chapter 253: Angry to the point of vomiting blood

After the emperor finished praising Princess Xueyan, he looked at Chang Liangyuan. He remembered her as Chang Liangyuan because she was the niece of the empress and the legitimate daughter of General Chang.

It’s only been a month since the last incident, and I can’t forget it even if I want to.

Before Chang Liangyuan entered the palace, the empress praised her for her proficiency in music, chess, calligraphy and painting.

Today's sight is no different.

Out of consideration for the empress's face, the emperor said nothing and turned back to the Fengyi Palace.

Even if the emperor said nothing, Chang Liangyuan had lost all her face, and the image of a talented woman that she had established before had now collapsed.

Those who usually flatter and curry favor with others turned around and flattered Princess Xueyan.

"Princess Xueyan is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. She is even better than the rumors say."

"That's right. Princess Xueyan is of noble status and outstanding talent. She is not comparable to ordinary people."

Xueyan had a gentle smile on her face and was used to compliments.

Chang Liangyuan almost vomited blood. These people had praised herself in the same way at the beginning. She turned around and said to another person, "How disgusting!"

Concubine Xu was extremely excited. "She claimed to be proficient in everything from music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and she acted like a talented woman every day. Now she has fallen flat on her face!"

Shen Chuwei glanced at them for a few seconds and then looked at Concubine Xu. She was the most excited one.

It still doesn't affect her eyelids fighting each other~

Xiao Jinyan glanced at Xueyan. She was surrounded by people. Sometimes having more women can be useful.

Shen Chuwei was still thinking about sleeping for a while leaning on Xiao Jinyan's arm. Just as she closed her eyes, a familiar voice came from above her head: "Let's go back first."

After Xiao Jinyan finished speaking, he took the still sleepy Shen Chuwei and left Yu Garden.

Shen Chuwei instinctively followed his pace, and after a few seconds she realized that she could go back to sleep, and she was instantly overjoyed.

Concubine Xu was looking very proud. She turned to look at Shen Chuwei and wanted to say something, but the living person beside her disappeared.

"Where is Shen Liangdi?"

I looked around and saw two figures not far away.

Xiao Jinyan led Shen Chuwei towards the East Palace.

In Concubine Xu's eyes, it was Xiao Jinyan who dragged Shen Chuwei away.

“This is another violent tendency.”

Tao Chenghui turned his gaze back to Xu Cefei after hearing this, his eyes full of confusion, "Who has violent tendencies?"

Concubine Xu pulled Tao Chenghui and pointed at the two figures that were already far away, and said in a low voice: "His Highness has a violent tendency. Look, he used violence to drag Shen Liangdi away."

Tao Chenghui took a look and said, "It doesn't look like it!"

Concubine Xu stared at the two people's clasped hands and said seriously, "Look carefully, is your Highness's hand holding Concubine Shen's hand?"

Tao Chenghui nodded, "I saw it."

Concubine Xu said: "This is evidence of a tendency toward violence."

Tao Chenghui turned his head and looked at Concubine Xu, "Why do I feel like it's His Highness holding Concubine Shen's hand?"

Concubine Xu was stunned for a moment, then stared at the two people's hands, and suddenly became a little uncertain, "...Is there, is there?"

After Xueyan got rid of them, she turned around to look for Xiao Jinyan, but couldn't find him after searching for a while. "Where did your highness go?"

Concubine Xu saw Xueyan looking for the prince and walked over, swinging her handkerchief, "Princess Xueyan, the prince is a very busy man. The sisters don't usually see him. He must be busy with official business right now."

Xueyan retracted her gaze and looked at Concubine Xu. She had the highest position in the Eastern Palace, which she had learned in the past few days.

"Is he so busy?"

"Of course. If you don't believe me, ask the sisters. It is common not to see His Highness for ten days or half a month." Concubine Xu glanced at the sisters present and said it with certainty.

Xueyan looked at the sisters present, all of them were beautiful women with outstanding looks.

Xu Chenghui raised his handkerchief and wiped away his tears. "It's been two months since I last saw His Highness. If it weren't for today, I don't know how long it would take to see him again."

"It took me a month and a half to see His Highness, and I was only able to see His Highness at lunch today." Li Liangyuan sighed.

Xue Yan's eyes were full of doubts, and then she looked at Concubine Xu, "What about you? When can you see His Highness?"

Concubine Xu held up Fu's temples, feeling somewhat proud, "I am different from them. I am a concubine, so it will only take three to five days."

Concubine Xu did not lie, she indeed only saw His Highness once every three to five days, and every time she went to the Hehuan Palace to have a private chat with Shen Chuwei, she was interrupted by Xiao Jinyan, which made her teeth itch.

Xue Yan looked at Chang Liangyuan again, "Then what about Chang Liangyuan? She is the Queen's niece, can she see His Highness every day?"

Chang Liangyuan, who was about to leave, was suddenly called. She paused, deciding to turn a deaf ear and leave.

Concubine Xu glanced at Chang Liangyuan and saw through her thoughts. She shouted at the top of her voice, "Chang Liangyuan, Princess Xueyan wants to ask you how often you can see His Highness."

Chang Liangyuan was so angry that her teeth were itching. She had been under house arrest for a month. This was something that everyone in the palace knew, but Concubine Xu still asked questions knowing the whole story!

Concubine Xu did it on purpose to embarrass her.

Chang Liangyuan resisted the urge to curse and turned to look at Concubine Xu, only to see that she was looking at her with a smug smile on her lips.

No matter how dignified and elegant she was, she could not control her emotions. She wanted to slap Concubine Xu twice and let her embarrass herself on purpose.

Concubine Xu raised her chin and said, "You're unhappy, right? Come on, come and hit me if you have the guts. If you dare to touch a hair of mine, I will let you stay in Xiaoxiang Pavilion for a month. No, one month is too cheap for you. I'll let you stay in Xiaoxiang Pavilion for three months!"

Chang Liangyuan suppressed her dissatisfaction and looked at Princess Xueyan with a faint smile, "Princess, your highness is the crown prince. There are so many women in the East Palace. Your highness is busy every day. It is normal that you can't see them. It has nothing to do with your status."

Chang Liangyuan deliberately emphasized the last sentence, implying that even if you are a noble princess, so what? Even if you marry into the East Palace, His Highness may not necessarily favor you!

Although Concubine Xu dislikes Chang Liangyuan, she also agrees with her point of view, so Princess Xueyan, you'd better give up as soon as possible!

Xueyan smiled faintly, "What Chang Liangyuan said makes sense, so Chang Liangyuan hasn't seen His Highness for a long time. It seems that His Highness doesn't like Chang Liangyuan."

When Chang Liangyuan heard this, she felt as if she was in a sore spot and almost vomited blood and died.

Concubine Xu raised her handkerchief to cover her mouth and laughed secretly, "Princess Xueyan is so smart."

Chang Liangyuan was so angry that her heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys all ached. She could no longer bear it and left in anger.

On the way back

Tao Chenghui leaned close to Concubine Xu and whispered in her ear, "This Princess Xueyan is not simple."

Concubine Xu asked curiously, "Why is it not simple?"

"Princess Xueyan is only fifteen years old, but she is proficient in everything from playing the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. She speaks calmly and patiently. Even Chang Liangyuan is not as good as her." Tao Chenghui was born in a merchant family. He followed his father to see countless people, so he had some vision in judging people.

"What are you afraid of? If Princess Xueyan really wants to marry His Highness, Chang Liangyuan will be the first one who is unwilling. She is so scheming. Last time, she almost caused me and Shen Liangdi to get into trouble. I don't believe she will be willing to let Princess Xueyan take away the position of Crown Princess this time."
