Ma'am, she only wants to be promoted

Chapter 170 Concubine Jing's Thoughts

Lu Wanning saw it as if she didn't see it, but Concubine Jing said directly: "Concubine Xi, this is the mourning hall of the empress, what are your rules?"

When Concubine Xi heard this, she was a little annoyed, and said sarcastically, "The concubine Jing is so majestic! Why didn't the empress protect the empress like this when the empress was alive?"

In the past, no matter how dissatisfied Concubine Xi was, she would not have dared to speak out directly, but now she feels that Concubine Jing is a concubine, and she is a concubine, and her status is not much lower than Concubine Jing.Concubine Jing has the eldest princess by her side, and she also has three princesses. The emperor now visits her palace once or twice a month, and concubine Jing goes to the palace once or twice a month.

She and Concubine Jing are about the same now, so there is no need for her to be afraid of Concubine Jing.

Concubine Jing narrowed her eyes dangerously, then she smiled coldly and said, "Concubine Xi, don't mess around, this is the mourning hall of the empress, and there are so many wives kneeling outside the hall who came to mourn for the empress." , I hope that as a high-ranking concubine, you can have the minimum respect for the empress, and don't lose the royal rules, otherwise..."

Concubine Jing paused for a moment, then continued: "With so many eyes staring at you, do you think the emperor can forgive you?"

Xi Concubine glanced back, at this moment the people behind had already noticed their movements, all eyes were on them.

Xi Concubine looked away, snorted coldly, and knelt up straight.

Lu Wanning burned the paper money with lowered eyes from the beginning to the end, without even raising her eyes, but thinking about the behavior of the concubine Jing in her heart.

Concubine Jing's behavior today is not like her previous style.

There was no conflict between Xi Concubine and Concubine Jing, if Concubine Jing had seen Xi Concubine break the rules before, she would never have done anything unnecessary.

Concubine Jing would do this today, probably because she felt that there is no queen, and now she is the only concubine, even if the emperor would not directly make her a queen, most of the palace power would fall on her.

She is exercising her right to manage the harem ahead of time.

Lu Wanning shook her head, although it was indeed possible, but before the matter was settled, no one knew what the emperor would do.

Concubine Jing rushed in.

A few days after the queen's funeral, concubines like Lu Wanning had to kneel in front of the coffin every day.

Even though Lu Wanning took protection, when the queen's funeral was over, Lu Wanning's knees were still bruised.

Lu Wanning herself didn't feel much, but Qingdai and Qingzhi were so distressed that they went to the imperial physician to ask for medicated oil for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis to rub on Lu Wanning every day.

Lu Wanning's knees returned to normal after rubbing the medicinal wine for several days.

There has been no other news about the death of the prince who fell into the water, and it seems that the matter has ended with An Concubine being thrown into the cold palace.

Before the prince was gone, the emperor was sad, and he didn't enter the harem for a while. Now that the queen is gone, even if the emperor doesn't have much affection for the queen now, the queen is a queen after all. It must be impossible to enter the harem for a period of time.

It was the spring of Mingde's 11th year when the emperor stepped into the harem again.

At this time, it has been almost three years since Lu Wanning entered the palace.

If there were no special circumstances in the Great Yong Dynasty, the general election would be held every three years according to the rules, and this year is the year of the general election. Once newcomers enter the palace, these old people in the harem will have more competitors.

Therefore, before the newcomers entered the palace, these old people in the harem tried their best to get more favors during this period of time.

It would be great if they could conceive a dragon heir during this period of time. Even if newcomers enter the palace, they will not be afraid of being completely forgotten by the emperor.

As soon as the emperor had the intention of stepping into the harem, all the concubines in the harem immediately followed the emperor's tracks.

Inside the Linglong Pavilion, Lu Wanning closed the book after reading the last page in her hand, took a sip of the hot tea next to her, and then asked Qingzhi who was serving beside her with some doubts, "Where's Qingdai?"

Qingzhi smiled and said: "Back to Master, Qingdai and Zhou Man went out together to inquire about news."

"Ask for news?" Lu Wanning raised her thin eyebrows with some doubts, and asked, "Ask for some news?"

"They want to see if the emperor will come to our Linglong Pavilion tonight." Qingzhi said.

Lu Wanning smiled and shook her head, "What's the point of inquiring about this? If the emperor wants to come, he will come, and if the emperor doesn't come, he won't come."

This is not the time to compete for favor.

Qingzhi looked at the indifferent expression on Lu Wanning's face, hesitated for a while, and then said: "Master, the imperial concubine is gone now, master, you have the qualifications to raise the prince, Princess Huo, and the servants are all looking forward to the master's being able to do so." A prince or princess is next to me."

Although Lu Wanning is very favored in the palace now, Qingzhi, Qingdai and others are worried that the newcomer will threaten Lu Wanning's status after entering the palace. If Lu Wanning can conceive, then there is no need to worry about the newcomer taking the emperor's favor after entering the palace.

After listening to Qingzhi's words, Lu Wanning looked down at her stomach, and said with a smile, "I'm also looking forward to having a child."

Soon, there are still two months to go, the medicine she took before will no longer work again, and it is really time to consider having a child by then.

Without the noble concubine, the Zhongyonghou Mansion has also handed over military power, and now the emperor will not want her to give birth to a child because he is afraid of the Zhongyonghou Mansion.

While Lu Wanning and Qingzhi were talking, Qingdai and Zhou Man walked in with their heads downcast.

"What's wrong with you two, why is it like being beaten by Shuang?" Qingzhi asked.

Qingdai glanced at Lu Wanning, and said in a disappointed tone: "The little eunuch from Jianzhang Palace has gone to Qingren Palace."

Hearing this, Lu Wanning smiled and said, "If you think about it this way, it's better for the emperor to go to Qingren Palace than to go to other places?"

The fact that the emperor went to Qingren Palace does not mean that Concubine Jing remains different in the Emperor's heart, but that Concubine Jing has the highest ranking in the harem now, and Concubine Jing also gave birth to the eldest princess. The emperor went to her on the first night after entering It should be in the palace too.

If the emperor went to the palace of Zheng Jieyu or Cui Jieyu tonight, it would show that the emperor treats them differently.

Qing Dai and Zhou Man thought the same, what are they anxious about now, it is not too late to see which palace the emperor will go to in the next few days.

Although the emperor went to Qingren Palace, Concubine Jing was not too happy.

Waking up early, Concubine Jing looked at herself in the bronze mirror in a daze after seeing off the emperor.

Although she is not as young as Zheng Jieyu and Zhuang Concubine, she is well maintained and there are not many signs of age on her face.

Her complexion was not much worse than when she first attacked, but the emperor seemed to have completely lost interest in her.

Last night, the emperor entered the harem after so long, and he just had a meal and talked with them simply.
