Chapter 323 The 3rd Prince's Mistake
Chapter 323 The 3rd Prince's Mistake
Shen Zhinian said: "The best way to deal with the enemy is to defeat them without bloodshed."
She and Concubine De fought to the death, and it was bound to leave traces.
Firstly, it would easily affect her image in Nangong Xuanyu's mind; secondly, she might be caught by someone else; thirdly, if they were fighting each other and someone else took advantage of the situation, wouldn't it be a loss?
Sun Changzai gradually understood: "Liu Changzai was poisoned by Concubine De, but Concubine Liang was made to bear the blame, which led to Concubine Liang being imprisoned by His Majesty and not allowed to leave without the emperor's order."
"Sister Roupin, what you mean is that if Concubine Liang knew that the real culprit who harmed her was Concubine De, she would definitely not let her go!"
"When they bite each other, we won't have to spend any effort to see Concubine De get into trouble!"
Shen Zhinian nodded: "Not bad."
It was already late, and the two exchanged pleasantries for a while. Then Concubine Sun stood up and said, "Sister Roupin, you are still pregnant, so you should go to bed early. I will take my leave."
After she left, Shen Zhinian instructed: "Tomorrow, secretly invite Concubine Kang to meet at the stage in Shufangzhai."
Shufangzhai is located in a remote area and is now empty. Meeting there can avoid being seen.
"Yes!"
……
The next day.
It was just as Shen Zhinian had guessed.
Su Quanye is the emperor's man, so it is impossible to continue the investigation.
Regarding what happened in Chengqian Palace last night, the Ministry of Punishment finally believed that Yuzhu accidentally got her makeup on the drum, and in order to avoid punishment, they deliberately involved Concubine Zhou.
With Yuzhu being beaten to death, the case was closed.
After the news spread, people had different opinions.
Some people think that Yuzhu is really bold. Not only did she do something wrong, but she also slandered others.
Some people think that the Ministry of Punishment must have received instructions from His Majesty. To put it bluntly, His Majesty favors the Imperial Concubine and does not want people to continue to investigate Concubine Zhou.
It seems that although Concubine Wen is the most favored in the six palaces, Concubine Gui still occupies a very important position in His Majesty's heart.
Some people think that there might be someone else behind the raindrops.
However, no matter what they thought in their hearts, the emperor had already made the final decision, and no one was so blind as to dare to continue to hold on to it.
Tai Chi Hall.
Jiang Wange sat in a chair sulking.
Although she had known for a long time that men in ancient times believed that having three wives and four concubines was a normal thing, especially for emperors.
So she has tried her best to convince herself not to care about Nangong Xuanyu's three palaces and six courtyards, as long as his heart is with her.
When his feelings for her grow deeper, he might disband his harem for her, just like in the novels and skits.
After all, those women are hotels, only she is home.
But Jiang Wange never expected that Nangong Xuanyu still cared so much about Concubine Liu!
To her, this feeling is like her husband is married to her but she still can't forget his ex-girlfriend. It's really like eating a fly!
At this time, Mo Yun walked in with a look of joy on her face: "Good news! Madam, the Duke has brought good news!"
Jiang Wange glanced at her coldly and scolded, "Can't you see that I'm in a bad mood right now?! What good news are you talking about here? Are you deliberately trying to annoy me?!"
Seeing the fierce look in her eyes, the palace servants were so scared that they knelt on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, calm down!"
Jiang Wange sat in the main seat, looking down at them, and her mood suddenly became complicated.
When she first entered the book, although she knew that the ancient society was clearly divided into classes and it was very stupid to talk about equality here, she grew up in modern society after all, and every time she saw a large group of people kneeling to her, she still felt a little uncomfortable.
But... since when did she not only gradually get used to it, but also unknowingly put herself in the position of the master?
Could it be...that she has really been assimilated into ancient society?
Jiang Wange thought about it and felt that there was nothing wrong with this.
If she were reincarnated as a palace maid, a slave in a wealthy family, or a poor woman, she would definitely miss the good things in modern society where everyone is equal and has enough food and clothing.
But she dressed as a superior!
Living a life of luxury, with servants at your service, and being favored by the six palaces, a large group of people are respectful to you wherever you go. Isn't this better than working as a social animal 996 every day after graduation in modern society, being pua by the boss, and not making much money?
Thinking of this, Jiang Wange's brows relaxed, waved his hand to signal them to get up, looked at Mo Yun and asked: "Tell me, what's the good news?"
The rhythm of ink, the shadow of paper, the style of the brush and the feeling of the inkstone all have the same feeling.
When they were first assigned to serve the Empress, she was actually quite approachable, unlike the other high-ranking masters in the Duke's Mansion who made them very afraid.
Because of this, their attitude was somewhat insolent when they first accompanied the Empress into the palace.
But as the empress became more and more favored and acted more like a master, they gradually developed a sense of awe towards her.
Mo Yun lowered her head and handed over the box in her hand, saying respectfully, "Your Majesty, the Duke followed your suggestion and used the hot pot recipe you provided to have his men promote hot pot in several restaurants under the Duke's Mansion."
"It's just as you said. No matter whether it's the dignitaries or the common people, no one has ever seen such a novel way of eating."
"Especially since you are His Majesty's favorite concubine, everyone heard that hotpot was invented by you. Regardless of whether they like it or not, they all went to support you for the novelty! It hasn't been long since then, and those restaurants have made a lot of money!"
"This box of banknotes was sent to you by the Duke."
Jiang Wange opened the box and took a look. She smiled so hard that her eyes curved and the depression in her heart disappeared.
"Of course you can make money by following the method I told you!"
After all, it was the restaurant under the name of the Duke of Zhenguo Mansion that promoted hot pot, not those small vendors who started from scratch. And she, the most favored Concubine Wen in the six palaces, was the best spokesperson for hot pot!
Jiang Wange felt more and more that she was indeed the chosen heroine!
Seeing that she was in a good mood, Mo Yun took the opportunity to remind her, "Your Highness, the Duke also said that the most important thing for you now is to get pregnant with an heir! After all, there is already a third prince in the harem, and Concubine Rou and Concubine Zhou are pregnant again."
"The Third Prince is the eldest son. He has an advantage since birth. You can't fall too far behind..."
Jiang Wange sneered disdainfully: "Tell father not to worry about the third prince."
She knew it as soon as she saw the third prince yesterday!
Small eyes, wide-set eyes, flat nose, and eyes slanting upwards, isn’t this the standard appearance of a Down syndrome child!
A mentally retarded person with Down syndrome, who drools when he grows up in ancient times when medical technology was backward, still wants to compete for the throne?
