Quick Wear: The Enchanting Concubine, Rules of Survival and Plunder

Chapter 608 The Miserable Palace Maid 1

"Master, the food sent by the imperial kitchen today does not even have a single meat dish. There are only two plates of yellowed vegetables and tofu. How can you eat such a meal?" Jiang Chunxi looked at Concubine Zhen in front of her, who was as calm as a chrysanthemum, and her eyes were almost rolled up to the sky.

The original owner was a loyal servant, and the master she served was the emperor's true love. Of course, this true love was very watery.

After all, Zhenfei was not the only one favored in the harem. When other concubines were favored, the emperor was very generous and rewarded them with all kinds of good things.

But when it came to Zhenfei, she had nothing but some free love poems written by the emperor. Yet Zhenfei regarded them as treasures, thinking that the relationship between her and the emperor was unmatched by any other concubine in the harem, and that the emperor's favor towards her was unique.

Of course, if it were just that, it wouldn't be a big deal. After all, Zhenfei's status was there, so even if she didn't receive any reward from the emperor, her life wouldn't be too bad.

But who made Zhenfei like to commit suicide?

She was always showing off her temper with the emperor, making him angry and neglecting her. Whenever Zhenfei fell out of favor, the Imperial Household Department would start to make things difficult for her, not only deducting her allowance, but also making her food worse.

As the master, Concubine Zhen could still eat the food no matter how bad it was, but the servants under her were not so lucky. They had to eat rotten food.

The original owner's body was destroyed in this way, but she remained loyal to Concubine Zhen. No matter how Concubine Zhen was framed and was once demoted and imprisoned in the cold palace, she always stayed with Concubine Zhen and never thought of betraying her master.

Later, Zhenfei was cleared of the charges, released from the cold palace, and named a noble concubine by the emperor. The original owner felt that her hard days were finally over.

But who would have thought that Concubine Zhen was no longer as indifferent as a chrysanthemum and was willing to fight in the palace. However, in order to frame the queen, she sent the original owner to the eunuch in the queen's palace to humiliate her in exchange for the other party's betrayal of the queen and help her overthrow the queen.

At this time, although the original owner had resentment in her heart, her loyalty to Concubine Zhen did not change. She kept fantasizing that she could just endure it a little longer, and once Concubine Zhen overthrew the Queen, she would be free.

You know, eunuchs can be very cruel when torturing women. Ever since the original owner gave herself to the eunuch in the Queen's palace, she would be tortured half to death by him every time she went to see him.

As for the original owner's experience, Zhen Fei simply told her lightly to be patient and that after she overthrew the queen, she would not let her suffer such pain again.

But after Zhenfei overthrew the queen and took the throne as she wished, she did not think about helping the original owner to take revenge, but instead reused that dead eunuch.

Moreover, she didn't allow the original owner to serve her, and told her to be a good wife to the eunuch and serve him well.

In short, they gave up on the original owner, treated him as a rag, and kicked him away when they felt that he was no longer of any use.

The original owner's faith collapsed at that moment. She didn't expect that her loyalty to her master would result in such a result.

Later, the original owner hanged herself. It’s not that she didn’t think about revenge, but she knew very well that she didn’t have the ability to do so because Zhenfei was already the queen at that time.

The most important thing is that Concubine Zhen no longer trusts her and will not let her serve closely anymore, or in other words, she will not let her get close at all. Under such circumstances, how can the original owner talk about revenge?

As for the eunuch who humiliated her...

It's not that the original owner didn't want to kill him, but she had seen through the ugly face of Concubine Zhen at that time. She knew that if she killed the eunuch, Concubine Zhen would be very happy.

Or maybe Zhen Fei wanted her to kill the eunuch, so she stopped letting her serve him closely, so that the original owner would not be able to survive and die together with the eunuch.

The original owner's wish was very simple, which was to take revenge on Concubine Zhen. She wanted to let Concubine Zhen also taste the pain of being tortured by eunuchs.

"Just make do with it!" Concubine Zhen put down the pen in her hand with a calm expression, "The Imperial Household Department has always flattered the powerful and bullied the weak. This is not the first time that something like this has happened. Just bear with it and it will pass. There is no need to worry about losing face."

Jiang Chunxi really wanted to scold Zhenfei.

As long as you can have clean meals, you don't have to worry about anything. It's really easy to say.

"Master, you can't say that," Jiang Chunxi said, "The Ministry of Internal Affairs believes that you are a calm person, so they dare to bully our Liuli Palace. However, there is one thing I don't understand. Logically speaking, you and the emperor have a childhood sweetheart relationship, and the emperor has always doted on you."

"Even though the master always quarrels with the emperor, the emperor always bows to the master first. So I can't understand why the Ministry of Internal Affairs always dares to make things difficult for our Liuli Palace after the master quarrels with the emperor. Do the servants in the Ministry of Internal Affairs think that the master is easy to bully, or do they think that the master has completely fallen out of favor every time the master quarrels with the emperor?"

"In short, I think this matter is very strange. If they say that no one from the Imperial Household Department told them anything, I don't believe it. Besides, the only person who can order those servants from the Imperial Household Department around is the Emperor, besides the Empress."

"But the Queen has always been virtuous and kind. Everyone in the palace knows that the Queen is a rare and virtuous queen. It is impossible for her to do something that would cause the Ministry of Internal Affairs to make things difficult for our Liuli Palace. Therefore, I am wondering if it is the Emperor..."

"Impossible," Concubine Zhen's face turned ugly, and she no longer looked calm. "Chun Xi, what's wrong with you today? How dare you even make up stories about the emperor? Don't you understand the relationship between the emperor and me after serving me for so many years?"

Yes, the original owner was a servant who had served Concubine Zhen since she was a child. She was brought into the palace from Concubine Zhen’s natal home. Now it has been just one year since Concubine Zhen entered the palace, and the original owner is only sixteen years old.

"Don't say such things again in the future," Concubine Zhen's expression softened, "otherwise, I will punish you."

"Yes." What else could Jiang Chunxi say? She originally wanted to make things difficult for Concubine Zhen, but looking at Concubine Zhen's expression, it was obviously useless.

After all, the current Zhenfei is very good at brainwashing herself, and she is very sure of how much the emperor loves her.

Of course, Jiang Chunxi couldn't understand the emperor's train of thought. If the emperor loved Zhenfei, he would say that! But what he did was not the case. The concubines in the harem could see that the emperor's love for Zhenfei was just that.

But only Zhenfei could not see it. Instead, she thought that the emperor's special treatment of her was a manifestation of his love for her.

Can you say that the emperor didn't love Concubine Zhen? But after Concubine Zhen was imprisoned in the cold palace, he tried his best to clear Concubine Zhen of the charges and released her from the cold palace. After Concubine Zhen overthrew the queen, he made her the queen.
