The fleet slowly approached the shore, and Concubine Zuo, supported by the personal soldiers of the Qingzhou Palace, slowly got off the boat.

Boatloads of dowry were unloaded, and the grand scene attracted the attention of people on the dock.

The concubine on the left nodded her head and puffed out her chest, enjoying the gazes of everyone with great satisfaction. She believed that soon the news that the Qingzhou Palace would be bringing a beautiful bride to the capital would spread throughout the capital.

Jiang Xue Ning looked at her energetic appearance, and a smile appeared in her eyes unconsciously, "Concubine, you have worked hard along the way."

"Humph, if I wasn't afraid that you would be bullied, I wouldn't bother to come." Zuo Yifei proudly stretched out her hand to her, "Hold on."

Jiang Xue Ning supported her with a smile and whispered in her ear, "I have seen all the famous ladies in Beijing, but the concubines are still the most beautiful and interesting."

"That's right. I was a beauty in Qingzhou back then."

There was no awkwardness between the two of them, and they spoke as warmly as ever.

A grand welcoming banquet was held in the palace for the people from Qingzhou.

Zuo Yifei, who was always fond of drinking, didn't drink a drop of wine today. She showed a gentle smile on her face, "I dare not drink now."

Jiang Xue Ning looked at her belly which was completely invisible, and said, "Congratulations, you're going to be a mother."

Having been married to the King of Qingzhou for such a long time, even though it was a political marriage and even though she knew that the King of Qingzhou had a crush on Bai Yueguang, Concubine Zuo has always lived a wantonly and passionate life.

The concubine on the left side smiled happily, "I hope to give birth to a lovely daughter, then there will be nothing missing in my life."

As for whether she loves him or not, she no longer cares.

We had a great conversation that night.

The next day, Concubine Zuo Yi summoned two maids to the main courtyard.

Matron Gong and Matron Shang bowed to her and said, "Greetings, Madam Consort."

The concubine on the left sat lazily on the main seat, propping her chin with her hand, and said nonchalantly, "Tsk tsk, she is worthy of being a nanny from the palace, her manners are so good."

"Madams, please feel free to do as you please. I cannot accept your generous gift."

The two men stood up and raised their eyes slightly to look upward. What came into their sight was a graceful and awe-inspiring woman with slightly raised eyeliner, indicating that this woman was not someone to be trifled with.

The concubine on the left tapped the table lightly with her red nails, which made people feel uneasy. She looked at the two of them from head to toe without any courtesy.

"I heard that you were sent by the palace to teach our Xue Ning the rules?"

The concubine on the left side had come with bad intentions, and Nanny Shang spoke in a neither humble nor arrogant manner, "I am here on the orders of the Queen Mother to teach the princess the rules."

Very good, a tough one.

The concubine on the left raised her eyebrows slightly, and was very unhappy with the empress dowager who had never met her. She was a person who always protected her children, and it was impossible for someone to bully her in front of her!

She believed that she had never been a pushover. "Haha, our Xue Ning is famous in Qingzhou for her good manners. She is good at both literature and martial arts, and is proficient in conspiracy and double-dealing. She is no less skilled than men in killing people."

"Not just anybody is qualified to guide her."

These words sound harsh and are very intimidating.

Madam Gong looked down at her toes. She was just here to make a cameo appearance. Madam Shang was so angry that her face turned blue. She could only emphasize, "This is the Queen Mother's order."

"Well, the Queen Mother's orders cannot be disobeyed, I understand." The concubine on the left side said with a critical look on her face, "Then show me your skills."

"I want to broaden my horizons and see what's unique about Shengjing's rules."

Nanny Shang was silent for a while, as she was unsure of what Concubine Zuo's intentions were.

"Come on, show it."

Nanny Shang did not move, her brows furrowed so tightly that they could kill a fly. "I am also following the orders of the Queen Mother. Please, Concubine, please be merciful and don't embarrass me."

"Hey, why do I embarrass you? I'm asking you to show off your skills. If you do well, I'll be happy and give you a big reward."

For a moment, Nanny Shang felt that she was not a respected nanny in the palace, but an actor on the stage.

This concubine from Qingzhou is a little too weird.

She suppressed her anger and said graciously, "If the concubine feels that I am not qualified to teach the princess the rules, then I will leave the mansion and return to the palace immediately."

The concubine on the left is an expert in the harem, so how could she not understand her little tricks?

She said with a half-smile, "Mammy, you are joking. It is said that the cats and dogs in the Empress Dowager's palace are two points more noble than those in other places. You deserve it very much."

"How about this, I'm from Qingzhou and don't know the rules in Beijing. I'm afraid of bringing shame to the palace. Madam, please guide me first."

Nanny Shang looked at her in surprise and doubt, not daring to agree easily.

The concubine on the left side changed her expression instantly and slammed the table, angrily saying, "Madam, do you think that I am not worthy of your guidance?"

"This is not within the scope of the old slave's duties."

"I am a stubborn person, and I must have your guidance today!"

The two sides were in a stalemate, and Nanny Shang slowly exhaled, "Since the Concubine insists, let Nanny Gong give her instructions. She is the one who specializes in etiquette in the palace."

The blame was passed on unexpectedly, and Nanny Gong was the one who got shot.

Zuo Yifei stood up, walked up to her, raised her chin and said arrogantly, "I want you to teach me..."

Nanny Shang knelt down with a plop. "If this old slave has done anything wrong, I will return to the Cining Palace to receive punishment. Please don't embarrass this old slave, Concubine."

In the final analysis, she still has to be pressured by the Queen Mother.

She just felt bored, sighed, reached out and helped her up, "Hey, since Mammy doesn't like me and doesn't want to teach me, then forget it."

The moment she stood up, Zuo Yifei very skillfully threw herself at her, and she fell softly to the ground. Blood was flowing from her trouser legs, staining the corners of her trousers red!

The maid next to her immediately said, "Come here, someone is trying to murder the concubine!"

Nanny Shang was immediately arrested. She asked with trembling pupils, "This is slander, I didn't do anything!"

The concubine on the left pretended to wipe her eyes with a handkerchief, covered her belly and said, "The prince has been childless for many years, and finally had this child. I didn't expect something to happen here."

This was a blatant frame-up. Nanny Shang was so angry that she couldn't even say anything. "I didn't do anything. It was you, Concubine, who threw yourself at me."

"Humph, if the prince knew that I was in trouble, he would definitely kill you with a sword!"

Of course she had heard of the reputation of King Qingzhou, who was simply a living devil.

She tried to remain calm and said, "I have done nothing wrong. The Queen Mother and the Ministry of Punishment will clear my name."

The concubine on the left was amused. "It seems that Madam has been in the palace for too long and her brain is not working well. I said you have done it, so you have done it. Do you understand?"

She took the initiative. If things really got out of hand, the Queen Mother would not go head-to-head with the Qingzhou Palace just for a nanny.

"To the palace, if you're killed, you're killed." The concubine on the left sneered and said arrogantly, "I'm giving you a reason, which already shows that I think highly of you."

Nanny Shang took a deep breath and instantly collapsed.

It's still a long way to fight her.

High-end house fights often only require the simplest and most straightforward means.
