Chapter 428 It's not important anymore
"You!" Concubine Qian Shu stood up: "Shen Chuliu, why do you always make things difficult for me?"
"Then why do you say that?" Shen Chuliu looked over with cold eyes: "I will never forget that incident in my life."
Concubine Qian Shu was also filled with anger when she thought of that incident: "It was just a child's tantrum. You... do you still remember what you did to me back then? I'm generous and don't care about it, but you are not satisfied?"
"A child is angry? Are you saying that your son pushed my son into the lake because he was angry? Then I almost beat you to death because he was angry. I admit it." Shen Chuliu said calmly: "I advise you not to mention this matter. Your son is not a child anymore. What's the point of mentioning such a character?"
"The Queen has arrived."
The two of them didn't say anything, but Concubine Qian Shu was really angry.
The Queen had completed her routine inquiries, and Concubine Qian Shu was the first to take her leave.
The Queen didn't care, but now Concubine Qian Shu also tasted the hardship of life.
Even though she was still the highest-ranking concubine, it was not the past after all.
Fortunately, there is still the Second Prince, otherwise she doesn’t know what to do.
After the meeting, Zhen Chongyi was called away by Empress Dowager Li.
In Ci'an Palace, Zhen Chongyi was slapped hard in the face.
"Queen Mother..."
She fell to the ground and covered her face.
"You are so capable, so brave, and so cunning!" Empress Dowager Li was very angry.
"Empress Dowager, I...I..."
"You are the ones who make the decisions for the Li family now. It has nothing to do with me now, right? Ah?" Empress Dowager Li was so angry that she wanted to hit me again, but Nanny Hua stopped her.
"Master, please calm down. Your health is more important."
Empress Dowager Li was helped to sit down and pointed at Zhen Chongyi on the ground: "Do you know what you did? Huh? Idiot! Why did I think you were better than Feng Suxin? You are the same idiot!"
"Aunt, I was wrong, I was wrong, aunt..." Zhen Chongyi burst into tears.
"You are wrong. How did you go wrong?" Empress Dowager Li scolded, "You are so short-sighted!"
"It's me... I shouldn't have harmed the Queen, wuwuwu... But the Emperor never doted on me, I... wuwuwu, I just wanted to do it for Jue'er... wuwuwu..."
"Idiot! You killed the queen, so you can become the queen? Why? Ah? Why? What else does the Li family have besides a duke? Is it your father who is capable, or your uncles who are born out of wedlock? Or are your brothers promising? Or do you only think about me, the queen mother?"
"The Feng family couldn't even get a position as a legitimate wife for Feng Suxin, and you can do it?" Empress Dowager Li's chest heaved with anger.
"Of course I want you to be the queen, but why do you do these things now? Don't you know that no matter what happens to the queen, the army of Chao can come in immediately! They are eager to make a move and want to fight. What if they find out that the queen is dead? Isn't it a ready-made excuse? How can you be so stupid?"
"I...our Dayi Dynasty is also...also very powerful..." Zhen Chongyi really had never thought about this.
"Well, you are really amazing. Although I have this selfish intention, I dare not ask the world to work for me, but you dare to do it! You dare to do it?"
"Empress Chongyi, what are you talking about? Look how angry you've made the Empress Dowager." Nanny Hua said hurriedly.
"Yes, I was wrong. Please calm down, Your Majesty. I will never dare to do it again in the future. Please forgive me." Zhen Chongyi said hurriedly.
Queen Mother Li calmed down and regained her composure: "I can't help but mention you for this matter. I can't let the Li family get into trouble. Remember, next time you dare to do something behind Egypt's back, I don't mind sending you off in person."
"When Feng was alive, she was willing to do anything for her family. That was because she had no children. As for me, the emperor is my first priority. The Li family comes second. Don't put the cart before the horse. As long as I am still the empress dowager, the surname Li in the harem must be taken from me first."
Zhen Chongyi quickly responded with a yes and didn't dare to say anything else.
However, Empress Dowager Li didn't want to say anything more and just told her to leave.
"Master, please explain this matter... to the emperor. Aren't you being wronged?" said Nanny Hua.
"What's there to explain? I'm a member of the Li family. If I explain myself clearly, what will the Li family do? I'm the only one who will bear the responsibility for this matter." Empress Dowager Li smiled faintly: "My niece is confused."
"Then...shouldn't we ask the women of the Li family to come in and give them a try?" said Nanny Hua.
"Of course. If they don't accept it, they can just live a life of idleness." Queen Mother Li snorted, "They are courting death!"
"Master, don't be too angry. Your health is important. I think Empress Chongyi understands." Nanny Hua advised with a smile.
"Understand? Even if you understand, it's too late. Just wait and see. There was supposed to be a promotion after the mourning period, but this time it has nothing to do with her. Just wait and see, this time when the promotion comes, I'm afraid the newcomer will suppress her."
"Luckily, Lao Jiu also went to school, so she wouldn't be a bad example. I was blind before and thought she was capable."
Nanny Hua could only persuade her, thinking that no matter how capable someone was, if they couldn't make any progress after all these years, they would be of little use.
Besides, with the Queen Mother as support and a prince...
Only unloved...
What a pity, it has become like this.
Zhen Chongyi returned to Shuyuxuan and went into the inner room and started crying.
Her nurse felt sorry for her and consoled her, "What the Queen Mother said makes sense. After all, the Queen's status is different."
"When I entered the palace, I wasn't aiming for the position of queen. But look at me now. How does the emperor treat me? How does he treat the ninth prince? The positions of concubines are almost full, and I'm still Chongyi. How can I not be anxious?" Zhen Chongyi cried.
"My dear young lady, you have suffered." The nurse wiped her tears and said, "But you have to be well. You can't be like this with the Empress Dowager. How can life in the harem be easy? Haven't we seen a lot of it in these years? Look at your life in a similar position? What kind of life do you live? What kind of life do you live? What kind of life do you live? What kind of life do you live? What kind of life do you live?"
Zhen Chongyi stopped crying and said, "What the nurse said is right."
"My dear master, please don't cry. Fortunately, you are still young. You will have a little prince or princess in the future. You will have a good life. The Queen Mother will definitely take care of this matter for you. Nothing will happen."
Zhen Chongyi took a slow, deep breath and said, "I understand. Let me wash my face."
Soon, she washed her face and re-dressed herself, and it was no longer obvious that she had been crying.
In Taiji Palace, Qi Yixiu listened to Chusi's reply.
He smiled sarcastically and waved his hand to tell him to stop talking.
It doesn’t matter whether it was the Queen Mother’s intention or Zhen Chongyi and the Li family’s intention.
But they are really good at plotting.
