Chapter 787 The Palace Maid's Revenge 9
"You are useless," the queen pointed at the concubines with a grim face, "I have been supporting you all these years, but when we really need you, none of you can do anything."
"Seeing me being humiliated by Concubine Chen again and again, I guess you all feel very happy in your hearts!"
"Your Highness, if you insist on saying that, I will not accept it." Concubine Chun had already been resentful of the Queen, and after hearing what the Queen said, she could no longer hold back her resentment. "You can blame me for being useless, but you cannot question my loyalty to you."
"For your sake, I was demoted to a noble lady by the Queen Mother. If this is not enough to express my loyalty to you, then doesn't it make me question whether the master I follow is worthy of my loyalty?"
Although Wu Da Ying didn't say anything, the expression on her face said it all.
It’s okay for Concubine Lan and the others, but she and Concubine Chun were demoted by the Empress Dowager because they defended the Empress. Why did the Empress scold her and Concubine Chun as well?
"Slap me in the face." The Queen said angrily:
"Pa pa!" Nanny Tian immediately stepped forward and slapped Concubine Chun twice. "Concubine Chun, you should be aware of being a dog. Don't say that the Queen did not wrong you. Even if the Queen did wrong you and took it out on you, as the Queen's dog, you should be grateful and thank her for her kindness."
Forget about Concubine Chen, Concubine Wang and Concubine Su, but who is Concubine Chun? How dare she question the words of the Empress?
You know, if it weren't for the support of the Empress, Concubine Chun would probably still be a low-ranking concubine.
When Concubine Chun first entered the palace, she was just a minor concubine, and she was not very favored by the emperor. If she had not taken refuge with the queen, even if Concubine Chun gave birth to a princess, she would not have been able to be named a concubine. After all, she was just the illegitimate daughter of a fifth-rank official.
She has no background and is not favored. Even if she gave birth to a princess, what good is it? Without the support of the Queen Mother, could she have become a concubine at such a young age?
It's just a pity! Not long after taking the position of concubine, she was demoted to noble lady.
"I know I was wrong." Chunpin said humiliatingly while covering her face which was hurt from being hit. It was because she didn't have the confidence to fall out with the Queen.
"Get out of here, all of you." Looking at these pieces of trash, the queen became more and more angry.
After Concubine Chun and the others left, Nanny Tian looked at the Queen distressedly and said, "Your Majesty, if you are really upset, just cry it out! Don't hold it in like this, I am really worried about your health."
"Cry," the queen sneered, "I won't cry. Why should I cry?"
"Mammy, I really want to kill that bitch, Concubine Chen, at all costs!" The Queen's expression was extremely cold. "That bitch, Concubine Chen, is really capable! She has bullied me again and again. She treats me as a soft persimmon and believes that I will not do anything to her!"
"Your Highness, please don't be impulsive," Nanny Tian quickly advised, "Given how much the Emperor loves the Concubine now, if something happens to her, wouldn't the Emperor be furious and investigate thoroughly?"
"Your Majesty, didn't you ask Imperial Physician Zhu to prepare the medicine?" Nanny Tian came to the Queen's side, hugged her and comforted her, "Just be patient and wait for Imperial Physician Zhu to prepare the medicine. As long as the fertility of Concubine Chen is cut off, then Concubine Chen will not be a problem. A concubine who is destined to be unable to give birth to a child, so what if she is arrogant and domineering?"
"This woman's blooming period is only a few years. Even if the emperor treats the concubine differently, when the concubine is old and ugly, he can only give her a little bit of favor."
"Without the Emperor's favor and without the child, when the time comes, it will be up to Your Majesty to decide how to deal with the Concubine Chen. After all, the Empress Dowager is old, and it is uncertain whether she can live to that time."
The Empress naturally knew what Nanny Tian meant, but she really couldn't bear to endure Concubine Chen for so long. She was so angry at this moment that she wanted to kill that bitch Concubine Chen at all costs.
However, the queen still had her rationality. Even if her reason was burned by the fire of anger, she still calmed herself down with her strong willpower.
Jiang Chunxi had just been confined to her room by the Queen, but at noon, the Emperor came to Luanfeng Palace to have lunch with Jiang Chunxi, which made the Queen's punishment of Jiang Chunxi seem like a joke.
However, the Queen had anticipated such a result, otherwise she would not have said those words to Concubine Wang. So when she learned that the Emperor had gone to the Luanfeng Palace, the Queen had an expression of "as expected", but she was not angry.
"Your Majesty, I am smart, aren't I?" Jiang Chunxi looked at the emperor with a look of seeking credit, "In order to avoid getting up early to pay respects to the Queen, I went all out on the Queen in the morning, forcing her to punish me. This is the punishment of house arrest that I have always dreamed of."
The emperor looked at Jiang Chunxi helplessly: "I really don't know what to say to you, you! You are just fooling around."
"I just don't want to get up so early in the morning to pay my respects to the Queen. How can this be called nonsense?" Jiang Chunxi said aggrievedly. "When I lived in the Qinzheng Palace before, I always got up early when the Emperor was about to leave the court."
"But after becoming the emperor's concubine, I have to get up early every day, dress up and go to pay my respects to the queen. It's not so bad now in the summer, but if it's winter, I will have to get up from my warm bed before dawn every day and go to pay my respects to the queen in the cold weather."
"Your Majesty," Jiang Chunxi felt more and more aggrieved the more she spoke, "Why do I feel that being a concubine is not that good at all? It's even worse than when I was a palace maid?"
"Otherwise, you should depose me and let me return to the Qinzheng Palace to be a maid!"
"You! The more you talk, the more ridiculous it becomes," the emperor said, looking helpless to Jiang Chunxi. "Okay, okay, stop talking in anger and eat quickly! Otherwise, the food will get cold."
"Hmph!" Jiang Chunxi still looked unhappy, but when the emperor personally fed her soup, she obediently opened her mouth and let the emperor feed her.
That night, the emperor naturally rested in the Luanfeng Palace as expected. For the next seven days, he kept flipping over Jiang Chunxi's green card. It was not until the eighth day that he flipped over other people's green cards. He never went to the Queen's Palace once.
Not to mention the Empress Dowager, who sent people to deliver rewards to Jiang Chunxi every day. In short, the mother and son made the Empress look so embarrassed.
To be honest, the Queen is actually quite miserable when she encounters a mother and son like the Queen Mother and the Emperor.
But you reap what you sow. You can only blame the queen for not being able to tolerate the original owner in her previous life, and causing great harm to the innocent original owner.
