Chapter 228 I told you to shut up, are you deaf?
Wen Chuyun's face tilted to one side due to the slap, and a fishy-sweet taste came out of his mouth.
She suppressed the pain and anger, swallowed the blood, and continued, "Madam Jin Fei, Concubine Zhao is pregnant again. If she gives birth to twins, or a princess, the emperor will surely love her even more. By then, how much do you think you will have a foothold in the harem?"
"I told you to shut up, are you deaf?" Jin Weige was like crazy, slapping Wen Chuyun twice in a row, "You are just a little concubine, and you dare to come to me to laugh at me, you deserve to die!"
Wen Chuyun staggered after being beaten. She raised her hands to cover her face, took a few steps back, and steadied herself. "I didn't come here to be beaten. Madam Jin Fei, don't you want to think of a way to deal with Concubine Zhao? If she gives birth to this baby smoothly, I'm afraid she will control the harem!"
Jin Weige raised his hand high, and it froze in mid-air. After a long time, it slowly fell down, "Everyone, step back!"
Seeing this, the maids serving around were so frightened that they dared not breathe. They lowered their heads and quickly retreated.
In the blink of an eye, only Jin Weige and Wen Chuyun were left in the hall.
Jin Weige stepped forward, grabbed Wen Chuyun's chin, lifted her face up, and said word by word, "Tell me, what do you want to do?"
"My Lady Jin, I just want to cooperate with you." Wen Chuyun was forced to look her in the eye. "Besides Concubine Zhao, the Emperor favors you the most. As long as Concubine Zhao gets into trouble, the responsibility of raising the prince will most likely fall on you. By then, no matter whether you will have your own children in the future, the prince will treat you as his mother. He is still young and cannot remember many things. If you teach him carefully, he will naturally become close to you. This is a great opportunity, my Lady!"
When Jin Weige heard this, her face suddenly changed. Without thinking, she slapped Wen Chuyun again and angrily cursed, "Are you cursing me that I can't get pregnant?"
The continuous slaps finally made Wen Chuyun completely angry. "Madam Jin Fei, if you don't want to cooperate, forget it. Although the emperor loves you, he won't watch me get beaten for no reason! If the emperor hears what you did to me today, it won't be good."
"You dare to use the emperor to threaten me? All right, I want to hear how you plan to deal with Concubine Zhao!"
Jin Weige had some idea in mind.
When she thought about Concubine Zhao losing power in the future and having to raise her children by herself, she felt a sense of pleasure and couldn't help but want to continue listening.
"This is the Queen's idea. The Queen will have to discuss the specific plan with you in person."
"After all this time, you're just a runner. Okay, go now." Jin Weige waved her hand. She had taught Wen Chuyun a lesson today, and after hearing such interesting news, she felt much better.
Wen Chuyun left feeling aggrieved, because it was her low position now.
The position of concubine and the position of imperial consort seem to be only one level apart, but the gap between them is like a chasm.
Tishun Hall.
Bai Wutong was playing with Yunhe and Yunxi.
The innocent laughter of the little ones echoed throughout the palace, adding a rare warmth to the palace.
Chan'er walked forward quietly, leaned close to Bai Wutong's ear and whispered a few words.
Bai Wutong remained calm, with a gentle smile on his face, and called the nurse, "It's getting late, we should send them back for a nap."
After the others left, Bai Wutong's smile instantly disappeared. "What on earth does this Wen Chuyun want to do? She met Concubine De, Concubine Hui, and Concubine Jin. She was always sneaky, afraid that others would know. Could it be that she is trying to win over people and deal with me?"
Chan'er looked worried, "My queen, although you are now a concubine, the only true friend in the harem is Concubine Duan. What if they really unite to deal with you..."
"It doesn't matter. They want to join forces, but I won't let them do so. Go and prepare some gifts, and I'll go to see Concubine De. Wen Chuyun went secretly, but I'll go openly. No matter what Concubine De and I talk about, Wen Chuyun will definitely think about it carefully if she knows it."
"Also, tell the imperial kitchen to prepare more nourishing food for Concubine Wen. Look at how thin she is. This body is not conducive to pregnancy or detoxification. After each meal is delivered, have the people from the imperial kitchen watch her and make sure she finishes eating. Tell them it was my idea!"
Bai Wutong gently stroked her belly and stood up. "I am an exception, but she is not so lucky!"
As for the emperor, he knew that Concubine Wen was poisoned, so he naturally avoided her and dared not have any close contact with her again.
Since he couldn't touch her, he wouldn't pay too much attention to her every move, so Bai Wutong wouldn't have to be so cautious in his actions.
In the afternoon, after Bai Wutong had carefully dressed up, she boarded the sedan chair with a dignified manner, and, surrounded by a group of palace maids and eunuchs, she swaggered towards Concubine De's palace.
Although both Defei and Bai Wutong were concubines, Defei's title was slightly higher in rank.
But according to palace rules, she had to go out and greet him in person.
The two met at the palace gate and greeted each other.
"Sister Zhao Fei, what brings you here today? This is your first time visiting my palace."
"Yes, sister. I have always wanted to visit you, but I was not feeling well these days, so I kept delaying. Now that the beginning of spring is approaching, I specially prepared some small gifts for you to express my gratitude."
Concubine De raised her eyebrows slightly and said half-jokingly, "Why does my sister have to go here in person to deliver the gift? You are pregnant with the heir of the emperor. If something goes wrong in my palace, I really won't be able to explain myself."
"Don't worry, sister. The emperor is considerate of me and has specially sent a lot of people to protect me. I'll be fine." Bai Wutong smiled and waved his hand. He turned to look at Chan'er and ordered, "Chan'er, hurry up and bring up the things I carefully prepared so that you can have a good look at them."
Chan'er quickly agreed and directed the eunuch beside her to carry several exquisite boxes in front of Concubine De.
When the box was opened, there were a dazzling array of items inside, each of which was a rare treasure.
De Fei took a closer look, and a trace of amazement flashed in her eyes. These good things were rarely seen even by her. She couldn't help but sighed, "The emperor really loves his sister. Look at these things. I don't even have many of them in my palace."
Bai Wutong said generously, "If you like it, come back to me and pick one."
"Then forget it." De Fei sat on the couch, "Sister, please sit down. I won't make tea. Although I don't mean to harm you, it's not certain in my palace."
