Chapter 630 Wu Changzai's Tricks
Concubine Hao glanced at her and said, "Get up."
"Thank you, Lady Hao."
Looking at Concubine Hao's bulging belly, a hint of complexity flashed in Wu Chang's eyes.
Now everyone in the palace knows that although Concubine Hao’s position is not high, her body is extremely precious.
When she gives birth to a child, no matter it is a prince or a princess, he will definitely be the mistress of the palace!
Wu Changzai also often lamented the unfairness of fate!
If she was the one pregnant with the heir, His Majesty would not treat the Wu family that way, and would not treat Yaozu that way, just for the sake of the child...
If Yaozu was so weak, he wouldn't have to go to the bitter and cold Ningguta and suffer.
In the past, they were equally favored. Although Concubine Hao was one level higher than her, Concubine Wu did not need to be too afraid of her.
But now... Changzai Wu's eyes swept across Concubine Hao's belly and she sighed secretly.
Forget it. If she can’t afford to offend him, can’t she just hide away?
Wu Changzai bowed and said nonchalantly, "I didn't know that Concubine Hao was also going to come to the Imperial Garden to enjoy the flowers. I won't disturb your interest and will take my leave now."
If it were in the past, if Concubine Wu had given in, Concubine Hao would not have made things difficult for her again.
But pregnant women are emotionally unstable, especially Concubine Hao, who came to the Imperial Garden to get some fresh air today because she was angered by Concubine Wu.
What's more, the other party wanted to leave as soon as he saw her, as if she was a man-eating tiger, which made Concubine Hao even more furious!
"stop!"
Concubine Hao signaled the eunuchs to get off the sedan chair, put her hand on the back of Chu'er's hand, and slowly walked down.
Wu Changzai looked at her, suppressed her impatience, lowered her head and asked, "Does Concubine Hao have any other instructions?"
It is not that Concubine Hao is arrogant and domineering just because she has gained power. Otherwise, she would not have gone out to show off in the past few months and stayed in Shuiyue Pavilion to take care of her pregnancy.
Therefore, even though she was unhappy, she never thought of severely humiliating Wu Changzai.
But...if she was asked to let Wu Changzai go like this, Hao Guiren felt that she was holding a grudge in her heart.
She looked at the Qianqiu Pavilion not far away, and suddenly said slowly: "I heard that Wu Changzai has learned a very new trick recently. I wonder if I have the honor to see it?"
Chu'er also thought this suggestion was good.
The young lady was in a bad mood because of Concubine Wu, so it is only right for Concubine Wu to cheer her up.
Besides, the young lady just asked Wu Changzai to perform a few tricks, and she didn't bully her. Even if it got out, no one would say that the young lady relied on her pregnancy to humiliate other concubines.
Wu Changzai frowned slightly.
She was born into a family of officials, so she naturally understood that a circus performing magic tricks was a low-class business.
Just to attract your majesty's attention, nothing is too shabby.
After all, everyone in the world is his Majesty's subject, and they should make his Majesty happy. As a concubine, she has the responsibility to make his Majesty feel relaxed when his Majesty is busy with political affairs.
But...she learned magic tricks to please His Majesty, not to please other concubines.
Especially the nonchalant tone of Concubine Hao, which clearly treated her as a lowly person.
Wu Changzai felt insulted...
Seeing that Concubine Hao frowned, Chu Er immediately asked, "Why, Concubine Wu is unhappy?"
"Our young master is willing to watch your magic tricks, which is a honor for you. You are so ungrateful, are you looking down on our young master, or are you looking down on the heir in our young master's belly?"
Which palace concubine who is so reckless as to not care about her life dares to look down on the royal heir?
Tan Er pulled Wu Changzai's sleeve and whispered, "My lady, a wise man never suffers a loss in front of him..."
Concubine Hao now has a golden nugget in her arms. Who in the harem dares not to give her some face?
Especially there is an old grudge between the young lady and Concubine Hao.
What if Concubine Hao finds out and makes things difficult for you?
Obviously, Wu Changzai also understood these principles.
Although His Majesty is still interested in her, Wu Changzai knows that she has no chance of winning if she goes against Concubine Hao.
After all, in His Majesty's mind, is a concubine as important as a royal heir?
Wu Changzai forced a smile and said, "It is my honor that Lady Hao is willing to appreciate my tricks."
"Tan'er, go back to Luoying Pavilion and get the props."
Tan'er replied "yes" and did it immediately.
Seeing Concubine Wu's humble and submissive look, Concubine Hao's mood eased a lot.
If the other party could always behave like this, she would not bother to continue to embarrass Wu Changzai.
In fact... not only other people, but Concubine Hao was also very curious about how fresh and interesting the magic trick was that could attract His Majesty's attention.
If Wu Changzai's performance is really wonderful, she can enjoy it often in the future.
Luoying Pavilion is located on the right side of Jingren Palace, quite far from Qianqiu Pavilion. It took Tan'er a long time before he returned with the things.
Fortunately, during this period, Concubine Hao did not make things difficult for Concubine Wu.
"Lady Hao, I am about to start my performance."
Concubine Hao sat on a stone bench and looked at Concubine Wu with interest.
There was also some curiosity in Chu'er's eyes.
She wanted to see what means Concubine Wu used to seduce His Majesty.
Wu Changzai first stretched out her hands and showed them to Hao Guiren, and found that both her hands were empty.
Then she waved her hand and threw out countless colorful long strips of paper out of thin air. Under the refraction of the sunlight, they looked like gorgeous rainbows!
Then, Wu Changzai pulled the tails of the long and thin strips of paper and slowly rolled them into a ball in his palm.
Finally, he opened his palms and blew gently, and the colored paper strips turned into countless pieces, flying all over the sky, like a colorful rain.
At first glance, it is magnificent, as if you are in a colorful dream!
There was a flash of surprise in the eyes of Concubine Hao and Chu'er as they admired the colorful rain.
The palace servants passing by also had curious looks in their eyes.
This was the first magic trick performed by Wu Changzai, and it was so brilliant. No wonder it attracted His Majesty's attention!
Only... the maid who was in charge of cleaning Qianqiu Pavilion today, looking at the countless pieces of paper scattered on the ground, wanted to cry but had no tears...
Wuuwuwu... She had almost finished sweeping the Qianqiu Pavilion, but she didn't expect to encounter this. She would forget about leaving her shift on time today...
After a while, Concubine Hao withdrew her gaze and looked at Concubine Wu curiously and asked, "How did you do it?"
Wu Changzai said politely, "My dear Lady Hao, this is a magic trick. As for the principle behind it, I'm sorry I can't tell you."
Everyone understood that Concubine Wu relied on this to win favor. If everyone knew the principle, how could she attract the emperor's attention?
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Concubine Hao didn't want to be known as a domineering person, so she couldn't force him: "If you don't want to say it, I won't force you."
"But that's all the tricks? Are there any more exciting ones?"
