Chapter 316 Domineering
Swish.
Chen Tang's face instantly darkened.
Ginkgo's heart trembled, and she became worried, "Princess Qi was fine just now, why did she faint?"
Although they knew that the baby in Princess Qi's belly was most likely the child of the Marquis of Changping's son, Concubine Ye and the King of Qi did not know that. They were deceived by the Marquis of Changping's son and they treasured the baby in Princess Qi's belly very much. If anything went wrong, they would definitely put the blame on the princess.
Nothing good happens when you meet the Princess of Qi. We've all been avoiding her, but she still comes to the Jingyang Palace. She's so annoying.
Chen Tang was not sure whether Chen Xian was really fainted or just pretending. After all, Chen Xian had had a miscarriage before. She must be worried about the accident of the second master and the second wife. It is possible that she had a miscarriage. Of course, it is also possible that she was pretending.
The news that she, the Princess of Qi, fainted outside the Prince of Jingyang's Palace would definitely spread widely.
No matter how Chen Tang thought about it, he felt that Chen Ying was more likely to be pretending. He couldn't use the old lady to suppress her and vent the anger of the second master and the second mistress, so he wanted to use the emperor and Concubine Ye to deal with her.
It's really a good plan.
Chen Xian came to look for her. She fainted in Prince Jingyang's Mansion. Chen Tang had to ask about it, so she could only turn around and go to the outer courtyard. However, when she arrived, Chen Xian had already been taken back to Prince Qi's Mansion by the maid.
Wutong Courtyard.
In the inner room, the old lady leaned on a large pillow. Her face was not as pale as in the previous few days, but still very haggard.
This time, the fake illness turned out to be a real illness, which caused great damage to the body. If I don’t take good care of myself for a period of time, I will not be able to recover.
The maid brought the medicine forward, but the old lady was afraid of taking it. It was only after Madam Wu persuaded her for a long time that the old lady agreed to take the medicine.
The old lady was so thirsty from the persuasion that she picked up the medicine. Just as she was about to drink it, the maid came in quickly and said, "Old lady, the Princess of Qi is here to see the Crown Prince's Consort. The eldest and second girls hid behind the rockery to eavesdrop, but were discovered by the Crown Prince's Consort. She pretended to see a snake to scare them. The second girl was so frightened that she hit her head and the eldest girl cut her hand..."
The more the maid reported, the lower her voice became. The old lady's face turned pale and she threw the medicine bowl in her hand onto the small table. Most of the medicine spilled out and she almost broke the bowl as well.
Mother Wu wanted to drag the maid away and beat her. She had finally persuaded the old lady to take medicine. Couldn't she wait until the old lady took the medicine before reporting anything?
The same thing happened to the eldest and second girls. Not only did they eavesdrop, but they were also discovered and hurt themselves. If the matter gets out of hand, even if the old lady doesn't punish her, the princess will have to punish her too.
Not only does the old lady need to be punished, she also needs to be punished severely.
Last time, Concubine Jiang and the Second Wife donated money and lost face for the Jingyang Palace. The old lady treated them with care, which made the prince dissatisfied. He punished Concubine Jiang and the others to copy the family rules in the Buddhist temple for three days. It was obvious that he felt that the old lady's punishment was too light.
I've made this mistake once, how can I make it again?
The old lady punished Xie Yan and Xie Wei to reflect in the Buddhist temple for seven days.
Just as the punishment was over, a maid came in and reported to the old lady, "The Princess of Qi fainted at the gate of the palace and was carried back to the palace."
The old lady's unhappy mood improved a little after hearing this.
She can't do anything to the Crown Prince's Consort, but there is always someone who can take care of her.
The Princess of Qi wanted to ask a favor, but the Crown Prince's wife refused to go to the Qi Palace, forcing the pregnant Princess of Qi to go in person. The charge of disrespecting the Crown Prince's wife was enough to make the Crown Prince's wife suffer.
…
Chen Tang knew that Concubine Ye would definitely cause trouble for her, but she was not too worried.
The baby in Chen Xian's belly is her amulet. Chen Xian will not let anything happen to the baby in her belly. Concubine Ye believes that Chen Xian is destined to be the mother of the country. She has high hopes for the baby in her belly and will not harm her grandson. As long as the baby in Chen Xian's belly is fine, it is not a big deal.
Besides, even if the child was gone, it couldn't be blamed on her. She didn't do anything to Shen Xian. When Shen Xian came to Jingyang Palace to find her, she didn't even give her a sip of tea. She didn't take Shen Xian seriously. But the relationship between her and Shen Xian was not simply the relationship between the Crown Prince's Consort of Jingyang and the Princess of Qi. It didn't make sense for her to go to Qi Palace when she was in a bad mood and the Princess of Qi ordered her to do something. Even if she complained to the Emperor, it didn't make sense.
Chen Tang was fearless, but she was quickly picked on. She and Xie Guimo were only halfway through their lunch when Si'er came in quickly and said, "Crown Princess, the Emperor wants you to come to the palace."
He actually passed the news to the emperor.
Chen Tang put down her chopsticks and was about to stand up, but Xie Guimo stopped her and said, "Once you enter the palace, you don't know when you will return home. It won't be too late to finish your meal before entering the palace."
Chen Tang said, "It's not good to keep His Majesty waiting..."
Xie Guimo said, "I will accompany you to the palace."
Shen Tang sat back decisively.
She was confident that she could handle this matter, and with Xie Guimo accompanying her, she didn't have to worry.
He finished the remaining half bowl of rice, rinsed his mouth, and got up with Xie Guimo.
When they arrived at the gate of the palace, the carriage was already waiting there.
The two of them rode in a carriage and entered the palace without any obstruction. After getting off the carriage, they went straight to the imperial study.
As soon as I walked outside the imperial study, Queen Xu also came. No need to ask, she was definitely here to help Chen Tang. The last time Shen Tang helped Princess Gu'an with advice, Queen Xu hadn't even thanked Chen Tang properly yet.
If you meet someone, you must greet them politely. However, before Chen Tang could bow, Empress Xu helped her up and said with a smile, "No need to be polite. Go see the emperor first."
Imperial study.
The emperor sat on the dragon throne and Concubine Ye stood beside him.
When Chen Tang walked in, she received a look that seemed to want to torture her to death.
Chen Tang stepped forward, but before he could salute the emperor, Concubine Ye's cold eyes swept across Chen Tang's face, and then looked at the emperor, "The Crown Princess of Jingyang has a ruddy complexion, and she doesn't look ill at all. Princess Qi wanted to find her, but the Crown Princess of Jingyang ignored her, forcing Princess Qi to go to the Jingyang Palace even though she was pregnant, and she was so angry that she fainted in front of the gate of the Jingyang Palace. The Crown Princess of Jingyang despised the Crown Prince's wife so much, if she is not severely punished, it will not be enough to enhance the prestige of our royal family!"
Before Chen Tang could speak, Empress Xu walked up to the emperor and said, "What Concubine Ye said is too overbearing. The second young master of Pingyuan Marquis's Mansion and the second brother of the Prince of Jingyang's wife were assassinated and fell off a cliff. No one can find him alive or dead. It is understandable that she is in a bad mood.
Under such circumstances, let alone if the Princess of Qi has something to ask, even if I have something to ask her, she would be considerate.
Besides, everyone in Kyoto knows how the Second Young Master Shen ended up wandering outside. Concubine Ye would not be unaware of this. I am really curious. Princess Qi knew that the Crown Prince's Concubine was in a bad mood, but she still insisted on seeing her. What urgent matter is this that requires her to find the Crown Prince's Concubine of Jingyang? ”
Concubine Ye had a very long face.
From the moment she saw Empress Xu, Shen Tang and Xie Guimo come in together, Concubine Ye knew that Empress Xu was here to help Shen Tang.
He really will spare no effort to win them over!
