Chapter 209 (2/2)

”You don't have to worry. Concubine Chen is gentle and generous. She is the closest person,” Luo Ninghai said with a smile. ”But she is really powerful. Sometimes the emperor can't control her, let alone our concubines who are lower than her.”

Shen lvxiu said with a serious face: ”we have a low score, but the empress is not low. You are the person in charge of the Phoenix seal. Naturally, the imperial concubine is even more powerful. Not to mention that she treats people harshly, and you are heavy and generous. The sisters prefer to get along with the empress. The emperor often goes to the empress's palace. How can you not be better than the imperial concubine.”

Luo Ninghai was very happy to hear it. He made a hissing gesture and said with a gentle smile, ”you should keep your voice down. If others heard it and spread it to the ears of Huayang palace, the imperial concubine would kill two birds with one stone.”

Shen lvxiu quickly kept silent, lowered his voice and said, ”the concubine doesn't want to annoy the imperial concubine. If she punishes the concubine with the palace, it's terrible.”

”Don't be afraid, the emperor will speak for you.”

Shen lvxiu glanced, ”but concubines can't compare with the empress. They have a low status and are despised by noble concubines.”

”If you care about your identity, others will naturally look down on you. You have self-esteem and self-confidence, and others don't dare to underestimate you,” Luo Ninghai smiled and patted her hand. ”If the imperial concubine is only the position of the imperial concubine, her mother's family is still a criminal minister, so don't say anything about your identity. As long as you serve the emperor well, everything will be fine.”

Shen lvxiu opened his eyes and asked in a low voice, ”if the imperial concubine is a sinner... Why would the emperor let her...”

Luo Ninghai's lips bent into an interesting arc, ”this palace is not clear. It's always inconvenient to know what's going on between the emperor and the imperial concubine. Don't be too curious. Be careful to touch the emperor's mind.”

Zhuang Youyi scooped a bowl of soup for her and put it aside. ”This is the black chicken soup stewed in a variety of lang. what do you think?”

”You have a good mouth. You drink this and that every day,” Jiang Jinwen said with a long smile. ”How are you getting along with Prince Chun these days? He said he wanted to go with me. He must have met him secretly again.”

Zhuang Youyi bowed her head and smiled, but didn't mean to take her words. ”I heard that you quarreled with Ru imperial concubine in front of the emperor a few days ago in order to help beauty Shen speak, and won.”

”It's not to help beauty Shen. She and I have no reason. Why should I help her? I just can't see the style of the imperial concubine and say a few fair words for the imperial concubine,” Jiang Jinwen raised her eyes and looked at her. ”The people in the palace spread the word so quickly. I didn't expect you to hear it in a moment.”

”In such a lively scene, the other party is like a imperial concubine. No one in the palace will know,” Zhuang Youyi said with a slight smile. ”Haven't you waited on your bed yet?”

”No, the emperor seldom comes to me. He has stayed with beauty Shen these nights,” Jiang Jinwen shook her head, ”but it's good. I'm not ready yet.”

Zhuang Youyi's eyes flashed a strange light, ”I want to go to Prince Chunqin's house through the secret road.”

Jiang Jinwen's hand holding the spoon stagnated and looked at her suspiciously. ”It's good for you to meet Prince Chun in the secret way. Why do you have to go to his palace? It's too eye-catching and easy to be seen by others.”

”Prince Chun didn't promise me either. He was just imagining himself,” Zhuang Youyi smiled bitterly. ”He and I drank a little wine and said something these two days.”

Jiang Jinwen looked at her with a smile, ”then your wish is to come true. If Prince Chun can come out of the palace, let the emperor let you out of the palace.”

”What's your wish?” Zhuang Youyi smiled down and glanced at her faintly. ”I said a lot with Prince Chun, but it's about you.”

Jiang Jinwen was stunned. She smiled awkwardly and said, ”what do you and Prince Chun say about me? Say something about yourself.”

”If I didn't happen to live in Penglai hall and find the secret way under the wrong circumstances, Prince Chun might not know me at all,” Zhuang Youyi said with a gentle smile. ”You can be regarded as an opportunity between Prince Chun and me.”

Jiang Jinwen put down the spoon, pushed open the bowl and looked at her with a dignified look. ”Did Prince Chun tell you something? You look very wrong now.”

Zhuang Youyi bit her lower lip and said in a slightly complaining tone: ”I thought you were just a matchmaker's words and an appointment with his parents. I didn't expect that he liked you. He said he fell in love with you at first sight...”

Jiang Jinwen's eyes darkened. ”I'm telling the truth. I've never seen him before. As for what he thinks, I don't know.”

Zhuang Youyi's lips closed into a line, ”he obviously still likes you.”

”How is it possible,” Jiang Jinwen unexpectedly raised her eyebrows and sighed, ”how many years have passed. He is a prisoner trying to usurp the throne, and I am the emperor's min Jieyu. How can he still like me.”

”Do you know why he didn't listen to the advice of his staff and insisted on rebelling against the usurpation of the throne,” Zhuang Youyi couldn't help but increase her volume and looked at her with red eyes, ”because your father withdrew his marriage and he wanted to prove his strength, so he rebelled against the usurpation of the throne...”

Jiang Jinwen was stunned for a long time, her lips grew up slightly, and she sneered: ”it's ridiculous. Power is everyone's desire. Why should he be connected with me? Does the crime of trying to usurp the throne lie with me?”

Zhuang Youyi looked at her in silence and said, ”don't you have any interest in him?”

”Moved? I haven't seen him before my engagement. My father just wants to become a royal family, just like I'm a princess in the palace today,” Jiang Jinwen snorted coldly. ”If you like him, you can rest assured to act and don't care too much about the past between us.”
