Chapter 220 Making Trouble
Concubine Yu didn't know why she stopped. She just felt like there was a thorn in her throat that was stuck and very uncomfortable. The name of this thorn was Chen Qing.
The emperor's favoritism was so obvious, so obvious that Concubine Yu, who had pretended to be obedient and suppressed herself for so long for the sake of the third princess, was almost unable to bear it.
She didn't even care that the emperor promoted Concubine Chun instead of her, or rather, a voice had been ringing in Concubine Yu's head since the empress announced that Shen Qing was going to be promoted.
There was a voice in her head that kept saying, The emperor is too partial, the emperor is too partial!
How could she be made a concubine when she has no children and cannot give birth to any children?
And somehow, Concubine Yu felt that it was not surprising that Concubine Chun became Concubine De and Concubine Shun became Concubine Shun. These two were promoted under certain names, but what was the reason for Shen Qing's promotion? Was it because of her meritorious service to the emperor?
Doesn't this tell everyone that she was promoted because of the emperor's favor?
It gave people the impression that the emperor wanted to promote Shen Qing, but promoting only her would be too conspicuous, so he simply made a big fuss about it. Otherwise, Shunpin would only be promoted to the rank of concubine even if she gave birth to the eldest prince, so why was she pulled out?
She just didn't want to admit it, didn't want to admit that the emperor really liked Shen Qing, and wasn't just bewitched by Shen Qing.
But now reality slapped her in the face again.
Concubine Yu just stood there, and the other concubines passed by one by one, not daring to say anything. In short, unless Concubine Yu called out to them, they just passed by and didn't dare to stay.
The same was true for Chu Linglong. She was traveling with Concubine Zhou, and she felt a little scared when she saw Concubine Yu's appearance. In fact, she had seen Concubine Yu caring about her child, and when she saw Concubine Yu's appearance at this moment, she suddenly felt a sense of sympathy for some reason.
She must like the emperor very much, right?
Shen Qing was too favored, so she was fine. She and Xuanyuan Ling didn't see each other much, so even if she was pregnant, her expectations of the emperor were just the usual expectations of the emperor. She had never treated Xuanyuan Ling as an ordinary man from the beginning, and it was still the same now. Although she didn't have a good impression of Shen Qing, she didn't hate him either. It could only be said that Shen Qing was too favored and had outstanding looks. And now that she was pregnant, she had to be on guard, right?
Chu Linglong's attention to Concubine Yu only lasted for a moment. Since she was pregnant now, she naturally would not join in on such things.
Chen Qing came out and raised an eyebrow when he saw Concubine Yu's condition. Concubine Yu had fallen out of favor and after the death of the Second Prince, there was only the Third Princess. She didn't dare to do anything for the sake of her children, so she had been quiet for a long time.
Of course, Shen Qing also saw that her face was getting gloomier day by day. Shen Qing felt that she was a little depressed, but there was no psychologist here. This palace was really not a place for people to stay. No matter what kind of personality came in, they would often be assimilated unconsciously.
Concubine Yu was domineering from the beginning, and she had not forgotten the hatred of being almost beaten to death by her.
What does it mean that she is blocking the way now?
What's going on? She's going to be crowned a concubine, so can Concubine Yu beat her again?
Shen Qing thought it was ridiculous. Could Concubine Yu still have this opportunity now?
So just go around it if you need to, and you can stay here if you want.
So, under Wan Zhao's relieved eyes, Shen Qing bypassed Concubine Yu.
Then Concubine Yu suddenly woke up: "Concubine Xi!"
Shen Qing paused: "Empress Yu, things are different now, you should think more about the third princess."
What she meant was that she should stop doing it.
Concubine Yu froze in place when she called out the three words "Third Princess". She suddenly felt that Shen Qing might instigate Xuanyuan Ling to do something to the Third Princess. Now the Third Princess was everything to her, how could she still think about this?
"Little bitch!"
Concubine Yu shouted and rushed forward. Wan Zhao had been on guard for a long time and could not take care of anything else. He could only stop Concubine Yu. Shen Qing could not be in trouble at this moment, otherwise everything would be over!
Chunhua on the other side had already been alerted by Concubine Yu's condition, and now she was standing in front of Shen Qing.
Chen Qing looked at Wan Zhao's appearance and thought that Concubine Yu at least had a loyal servant. At this time, Jin Zhi from the Queen's Palace came out: "Concubine Yu, in front of Fengyi Palace, your behavior is against the rules!"
Concubine Yu looked at Jinzhi and became even more furious: "The Queen is such a fool. She is in such a state and still wants to support this bitch. Don't worry, she will be killed by this bitch and you don't even know it!"
Jinzhi couldn't stand hearing someone talking about the Queen like that and her face immediately turned bad. The Queen hadn't left in the first place, and was actually not far away, listening. It was natural that someone would report Concubine Yu standing at the door. She just came to see, but it was not easy for her to show up. As a result, Concubine Yu's words were shouted loudly, so she naturally heard it.
Her face immediately darkened. Of course she chose not to listen to Concubine Yu's words. She was angry that Concubine Yu had really slapped her in the face. How dare she call her a fool in front of her palace gate?
As if she was dead?
So the Queen couldn't help it anymore. She walked to the gate without her usual gentle demeanor and looked at Concubine Yu coldly: "Concubine Yu, you are too presumptuous! Jealousy is a taboo for women in the palace. I have seen you haven't learned a lesson in these days. Now you dare to be so presumptuous at the gate of Fengyi Palace. I think the punishments I gave you in the past were too lenient, so you still don't remember what to do and what not to do. I will report today's matter to the Emperor, you just wait for his decision!"
Concubine Yu was so anxious and angry that when she heard that the Queen was using the Emperor to pressure her, she couldn't bear it any longer. Looking at the Queen's face and Shen Qing's face in front of her, her eyes went dark and she fainted before she could say anything.
Wan Zhao was startled and supported Concubine Yu: "My Lady!"
Everyone around was shocked.
No one in the palace didn't know about the grudge between Concubine Yu and Shen Qing, but after that incident, Concubine Yu fell out of favor and Shen Qing didn't hold a high position, so it was good that there was no tit-for-tat when they paid their respects. But now it's really different.
Concubine Yu has fallen out of favor, and Concubine Xi is about to be promoted to a concubine. This situation is very different from the time when Shen Qing was unable to even resist. It is really a matter of time.
To Shen Qing, Concubine Yu fainted because she was angry. She didn't care because she had the Queen anyway.
She still relied on the Queen, so she bowed to the Queen and was about to leave. Seeing Shen Qing's expression, the Queen even said soothingly: "Don't worry about this matter, you won't be wronged in vain."
Chen Qing: “…” For a moment, she really felt that it was really miserable that the queen was kept in the dark and agreed to make her a concubine, and now she could come to comfort her, and her conscience would hurt.
But if she didn't lie to the Queen, she would be a murderer. The Queen did it all for her, and she used her as a pawn to deal with Concubine Yu, right? So the Queen should continue to be kept in the dark.
