Chapter 116: People die for money

Concubine Zhen gave her mother a big gift.

"Don't spread rumors about things that don't exist."

Concubine De glanced at her and said, "If you are caught in the wrong place, I can't save you."

Especially Concubine Liang, she is a person who will explode at any time.

Cuiyin knew that she was powerful, so she quickly shut up and sat aside to help Concubine De cut the lamp wick.

The next day, all the concubines paid their respects in Yikun Palace. As soon as Concubine De walked out, she was stopped by Concubine Liang: "Sister Concubine De, do you have time to go to Shun'an Palace in my palace?"

Xijue was in a good mood today, humming a little song and entered Hexi Palace.

Jiang Xinyue had just finished breakfast and was cutting beans with scissors in the vegetable garden. Seeing her like that, she couldn't help asking, "What good news is it? Why are you so happy?"

Xi Que, who was waiting for her to ask, narrowed her eyes and looked extremely vulgar, but she didn't notice it and seemed very funny: "Your Majesty, why else can I say that bad people will definitely get retribution? Guess what big thing happened in the palace today?"

Jiang Xinyue handed the scissors to Xiao Xuanzi and touched her chin in a deep voice: "With our gossipy nature, there must be something exciting somewhere again."

"Your Majesty..."

Speaking of happiness, no one in the entire Hexi Palace was happier than Jiang Chuan.

He ran from the front hall to the vegetable garden in the backyard, ignoring Nanny Li who was holding a vegetable basket beside him, and said with excitement: "My queen, Concubine Liang beat Concubine De. Concubine De was injured and bleeding. The emperor slapped Concubine Liang in anger and called her a venomous woman. He asked the queen to punish her in Shun'an Palace to reflect on her mistakes. She..."

Jiang Xinyue and Shuangjiang had strange expressions and kept winking at Jiang Chuan, as if telling him to stop talking.

Jiang Xinyue: Be more confident. Remove the word "seemingly".

Xi Que was so angry that she was like a pufferfish. Jiang Chuan only looked at her, and she raised the wooden ladle in her hand that was used to water the fruits and rushed over, shouting: "Ah - Jiang Chuan, you stole my words, I can't forgive you."

Xi Que, a gossipy little trumpeter, must have failed to show off in front of the empress, and ended up being snatched away by herself and exposed first.

Jiang Chuan ran away, not daring to get too close to Jiang Xinyue, and walked Xi Que around the entire vegetable garden: "Auntie, I really didn't mean it, next time... next time I will let you speak first."

Nanny Li and Nanny Xiang looked at each other again. They had never seen any servants in the palace who were as willful, casual and happy as Hexi Palace.

After exercising for a while, Jiang Xinyue's forehead was sweating a little. Li Ma reminded her: "Your Highness, go back and rest! Although it is morning, the heat is the hottest in August, don't get too hot."

She nodded, wiped her face and hands with the wet towel handed to her by Shuangjiang, and returned to the main hall with the support of everyone.

"Your Highness, why did Concubine Liang fight with Concubine De? Haven't they always had a good relationship?"

Jiang Xinyue drank a sip of warm water. Outside the open door, she could see a palace maid in green clothes sweeping the fallen flowers on the ground.

She put down her teacup, looked at the little palace maid and smiled: "Of course someone told Concubine De and Concubine Liang what I said yesterday. People die for money, and birds die for food. Once there is a conflict of interest, even the best relationship will break down." If things

really get serious, how can Concubine Liang be a match for Concubine De?

At this time, Jiangchuan and Xijue had already come in. The red envelope on Jiangchuan's head showed that Xijue must be the winner.

Jiang Xinyue's smile deepened. While Nanny Li and Nanny Xiang were outside, she said, "I have said before that I don't believe in the saying that a gentleman's revenge is never too late, even after ten years. Anyone who hit me, I will take revenge today or tomorrow."

The news was deliberately leaked to Concubine De because Jiang Xinyue knew that Concubine De was not really a Buddhist concubine. How could a true Buddhist concubine protect the third prince in a harem full of crises?

She did what even the queen couldn't do. Could she be a simple person?

Empress Zhu and the others only thought that Concubine De had a good personality and a high family background, so no one attacked the third prince.

But Jiang Xinyue thought it was because Concubine De was too smart.

She was smart enough to know that with her appearance, she could neither attract the emperor's attention nor make him fall in love with her through her personality charm. She

knew what she wanted very well, and made plans for it, and she carried out her plans day by day for decades.

In the harem, there are beautiful concubines such as Li Guifei, dignified Empress Zhu, cool and capable Concubine Liang, coquettish and simple-minded Jin Zhaoyi, and lovely Zhang Ronghua...

beauties have thousands of faces and their personalities are different, but there is no one like Concubine De who is not competitive and transcendent.

So Concubine De chose this personality setting, and she has been pretending for more than ten years.

Nowadays, when talking about the good people in the palace, who doesn't think of Concubine De first?

However, on the first day Jiang Xinyue came here, she was very jealous of Concubine De.

Why did the noble lady Su who lived in Yanqing Palace have such a strong hostility towards her for no reason?

Could it be that someone had been exaggerating her favor in front of the noble lady Su, subtly making the noble lady think that her disfavor was caused by Jiang Xinyue?

Jiang Xinyue was sure that there was no one else in the harem who could do things so well except Concubine De.

It was a pity that the noble lady Su did not know that she was someone else's executioner until her tendons in her hands and feet were cut and she was sent out of the palace.

"Boom--"

"Is it going to rain?"

Xi Que and Shuang Jiang closed the doors and windows. Jiang Chuan calmed down and rubbed the red envelope on his forehead and said, "There is one more thing. I think I should inform Her Majesty. The Empress Dowager forced the Emperor to issue an edict to change Concubine Li to Concubine Li. Moreover, before dawn today, the maids of Kunning Palace forced Concubine Li to kneel at the gate of Kunning Palace and kowtow to apologize to Concubine Shu!"

Of course the Empress Dowager Wu was angry!

She wanted a grandson with Wu blood to replace the Emperor, to get rid of the father and keep the son to restore the Wu family.

After waiting for six months, Concubine Li... no... Concubine Li pushed her so hard that her dream was completely shattered.

She must want to eat Concubine Li to relieve her hatred.

But all this has nothing to do with Jiang Xinyue.

Although everyone thinks that the Jiang family is the culprit for Concubine Li's defeat, this decision was made by Emperor Xuanwu himself. As long as the emperor understands that it has nothing to do with her, it will be fine.

The misunderstanding of the public will only make the emperor feel more guilty about her. What Jiang Xinyue has to do is to turn this guilt into tangible benefits and make up for it.

Who doesn't want to be promoted to the head of the four concubines?

So what if you don't have the qualifications? Is

n't it that the harem is where the emperor likes whoever he likes can do whatever he wants?

As long as she pushes Emperor Xuanwu, it is not impossible for her to become a virtuous concubine.

As long as the emperor conferred the title on her, he would not need to worry about whether she could sit firmly in this position.
