Mind Reading: The Road to Dominance of the Group’s Pet Princess

In my memory, Concubine Xian was always gentle and gentle, similar to but different from Concubine De.

De Fei is gentle most of the time, but she will lose her temper once she offends someone.

But Concubine Xian was only gentle, as if she were a clay figurine who would never get angry.

Now it seems that he is probably wearing a strong mask.

The handkerchief was like a hot potato. Emperor Shun simply put down the handkerchief and went to tease his son, pretending that he didn't say anything just now.

Originally, he planned to go to Hui'an Palace to see Concubine Xian tonight, but now, he has no such plans at all.

Concubine Xian gave the veil to increase her sense of presence. She firmly believed that His Majesty would think of her when he saw the veil.

So Concubine Xian ordered the maid to dress her up and change her clothes. She also brought her sewing basket and embroidered her purse while waiting for Emperor Shun to come.

As a result, when the moon was high in the sky, no one was waiting.

Concubine Xian directly pushed the sewing basket to the ground and ordered with a cold face: "Go check and see where your Majesty is resting tonight!"

According to the usual practice, His Majesty should have come to her Hui'an Palace long ago, but until today, His Majesty has not been seen.

She could only send a veil to hint that Concubine De should be released. This move was undoubtedly a sign of weakness to Concubine De. She was already angry, but she didn't expect Emperor Shun to come before him, which made her even more angry.

After a while, the palace maid who inquired about the news came back with a pale face.

"Your Majesty, your Majesty is staying at Jinghong Hall today. I heard from the young eunuch that Your Majesty wants to spend more time with the Seventh Princess."

Concubine Xian stared at the little palace maid with cold eyes, and the little palace maid's body was shaking like a sieve of chaff.

"You're a useless piece of trash, you only know how to find out these useless information, drag me down, stick ten!"

The little palace maid was dragged down. She didn't struggle or cry. There was only numbness in her eyes.

The nun beside Concubine Xian carefully advised, "Don't be angry, or you may get angry."

Concubine Xian has a bad temper, and those who serve her have to be tight-lipped at all times. If they are not careful, they may lose their lives.

"Mommy, how can I not be angry? Du Ruoxin is really good at winning over His Majesty with a pair of children, but now I don't even take him seriously."

"I'm going to be completely embarrassed. How should the people in the palace treat me!"

Mammy stepped forward and helped Concubine Xian sit down, "My dear, Concubine De is indeed very powerful now. She has the support of Duke Du Guo in the previous dynasty, and she has children in the harem. We must not antagonize her."

Concubine Xian withdrew her hand and said, "Why, my mother's family is a majestic and loyal prince's palace. How glorious the late emperor was when he was alive. Du Guogong's palace can't compare with our prince's palace. Now I only have a prince to accompany me. I have Only if I get the emperor's son, can I compete for it, otherwise, how could the position of queen fall to me."

After receiving the news that the queen had passed away due to illness, Concubine Xian felt that she had finally made it through. With her reputation in running the harem for so many years, and with the help of the Hou family, she believed that she was the best candidate for the position of queen.

Although Concubine De had seven princesses at that time, Du Guogong's palace had just suffered a disaster, and he was guilty of collaborating with the enemy and treason. Even if he was later rehabilitated, Concubine Xian believed that there would be a gap in Your Majesty's heart for Du Guogong, and he would not reuse Du Guogong again in the future.

But what she didn't expect was that His Majesty not only did not alienate Du Guogong, but instead trusted the Duke's family more.

Until Concubine De gave birth to the eighth prince, the position of queen was still vacant.

Seeing Concubine Xian's expression, Mammy knew that she was unwilling to give in. When the late Emperor was in power, the Zhongyong Palace was prominent. As the legitimate daughter of the Marquis Palace, the empress was pampered and raised since she was a child. Even the unfavored royal princess did not dare to frighten her. of mold.

It was not until she married Emperor Shun that she tasted frustration. Neither her proud family background nor her appearance seemed to attract Emperor Shun.

"Empress, but Concubine De is indeed in power now, why don't we just wait and see."

Concubine Xian sat upright and looked at Auntie with a serious face, "Mommy, we can't wait any longer. I have waited long enough."

"I was waiting when Duan Qingqiu died, but I waited until Du Ruoxin gave birth to a prince. To this day, I still have nothing."

"If I had known today, when Concubine De was pregnant, I would have taken action to kill them!"

Grandma was so frightened that she almost flew out of her mind. She quickly looked around and said, "Mother, you can't talk about this kind of thing openly."

"When Concubine De was pregnant, it was a wise move for the empress not to take action. At that time, Jinghong Hall was guarded like an iron barrel, and even the news could not be spread. If we take action rashly, we will definitely not be able to gain favor."

Concubine Xian is not stupid, so she naturally knows not to talk nonsense. "Don't worry, Mommy. The palace people in Hui'an Palace are still confident that I can handle it. Besides, there is no one around here."

"Mommy is just too careful. I have already thought about it this time. Since I can't give birth to an heir, I can just adopt someone else's. And the Eighth Prince is young, so he is at a good age to adopt one."

"Empress, I'm afraid Imperial Concubine will not agree to this move."

"Haha, what if Du Ruoxin dies? Once she dies, who else in this palace is more suitable to raise a prince who has lost his mother than me."

As soon as he said these words, even the nanny was interested. If they could get rid of the concubine De and successfully adopt the eighth prince, then it would only be a matter of time before their empress ascended to the throne.

"Your Majesty is wise."

The two of them conspired together, and it was not until late at night that Mammy returned to the room with a nervous look on her face, while Concubine Xian lay on the bed humming a small tune and fell asleep.

In the dream, she successfully ascended to the throne and became the most noble woman in the world, inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people.

......

The next morning, when Nalan Yunsheng got up, Emperor Shun had already gone to the morning court.

Concubine De asked Xiao Anzi to send back the jade pendant left by Emperor Shun. Nalan Yunsheng was puzzled: "Concubine, did the emperor leave just this morning?"

It's strange that Concubine Xian's invitation to be favored is so obvious. According to custom, it's time for the father to go to Hui'an Palace.

Concubine De was also puzzled, but since her legs were on Emperor Shun's body, she didn't ask any questions.

"Yes, the emperor left during the morning court today."

Thinking of Concubine Xian's temperament, Nalan Yunsheng thought that she should tell Concubine De about everything, so she whispered:

"Mother Concubine, I think Concubine Xian is so scary. I once saw her order someone to break the legs of a palace maid."

"But why are the eunuchs and maids in the palace still praising Concubine Xian when they mention her?"

Concubine De pulled her daughter over with a nervous look on her face. How could her daughter see such a scene and not be harmed?

"Sheng'er, were you hurt?"

"Concubine, my son is fine. Concubine Xian did not find him."

Concubine De felt relieved and couldn't help but warn her, "Sheng'er, you can't judge people by their appearance, and you can't follow others' opinions. You are not allowed to interfere with anything that happens to Concubine Xian. You can stay as far away from her as you can. Do you understand?"

"My son understands."

Seeing Concubine De's performance, Nalan Yunsheng understood that Concubine De was not fooled by the illusion created by Concubine Xian, and immediately felt relieved.

After coaxing Nalan Yunsheng to play with her son, Concubine De called Xiao Anzi in.
