Rebirth as Princess Jin again

The sound of broken porcelain came from Concubine Chen's palace, followed by Concubine Chen's angry voice: "Get out of here, everyone!"

The palace people trembled and retreated from the palace one by one. When they saw Situ Xue who happened to enter the palace, they all knelt down and saluted: "See the eldest princess!"

Situ Xue frowned and his expression turned pale.

"Mother and concubine, what's going on?"

The nun who was personally serving her had a scratch on her forehead and her hair was messy. She stroked her forehead and softly replied: "The imperial concubine is in a bad mood today. The princess will go in soon and give her some guidance!"

Situ Xue walked into the palace and saw the mess all over the palace. She stepped over the debris, stepped forward and held Concubine Chen's hand to sit down, and said with a smile: "What's wrong with Concubine Chen today? She's so depressed, but The affairs in the harem are complicated, are you tired?"

Concubine Chen stared at her for a long time with deep eyes: "Xue'er, I want to ask you something, and you must answer it honestly!"

Situ Xue's expression was startled, then she smiled and said, "Just tell me what my mother and concubine wants, but what else can my daughter hide from her mother and concubine?"

"I heard that Prince Jin's family was hit by a carriage when they went out to play. Was it you who did this?"

Situ Xue's eyes turned cold. She thought she had done it perfectly. Even the person who instigated this matter was hired temporarily. Even though she spent a lot of money, she would never be found. She smiled as before and took the opportunity to He picked up the teapot next to him and poured a cup of hot tea to Concubine Chen: "Where did you hear about this, concubine? My son has stayed in the mansion all day and has never gone out. What's more, what should I do if the Jin Dynasty's family is traveling? Would you know?"

Concubine Chen sat upright and did not take the tea. She just stared at her with burning eyes: "Really? Did you know that today the emperor has taken back the power of managing the harem, and then Concubine Shu took over the affairs of the harem? This is not a border town. Don’t think that no one will know what you are doing outside. Do you really think how your father got the throne? Can you hide this from his spy?"

After a long silence, Situ Xue put the tea cup in her hand on the table, stroked her sleeves and said, "Even if the daughter did this, does the mother-in-law really think that it was only because of the daughter that the father took back your The right to manage the harem?”

Concubine Chen looked at her coldly: "What do you mean by this?"

Situ Xue said calmly: "Mother, you are old, and my father is also old. My father is a wise king. Situ Jin has now helped him calm down the border, and the hidden dangers left by the previous dynasty have also been eliminated. Now the world is peaceful. He is no longer We need to rely on the power of the harem to balance the previous dynasty. Situ Jing also gained the appreciation of his father during the border town incident, so naturally his mother and concubine no longer have to be obedient in the harem."

"Don't forget, Concubine Shu is the eldest daughter of the former Taifu. Her identity and status are much more noble than that of the concubine. Do you think that if my father were to become the queen at this time, would he choose you or Shu? Concubine?"

What Concubine Chen cares about most is her own life experience. She does not have a strong maternal clan, and her mother's status is low. This is the only thing that makes her unable to hold her head high in the palace. No woman in the harem is not a member of the family. She is wealthy, but she is the only one who serves others with her beauty. As she gets older, her face also has traces of time. Now that her biological daughter has personally removed this fig leaf, how can her face look good?

She had a sullen face and stared at her biological daughter in front of her: "You mean your father's move today is to pave the way for Concubine Shu to ascend to the throne?"

Situ Xue nodded: "Concubine Mother has a delicate mind, so she can naturally see through this level. Is Concubine Mother really willing to be inferior to others and be a shrunken noble concubine for the rest of her life?"

Concubine Chen frowned and said, "But once your father becomes emperor, he will also decide on the candidate for the crown prince. Situ Jin is now in the limelight, and we can't compete with him."

Situ Xue said coldly: "Even if he becomes the prince, can't he be pulled down from the prince's position? As long as he has not ascended the throne, nothing can be generalized. The mother-in-law has two sons, so she has more than others. There is a 10% chance of winning, why not go for it? How can being a queen be as satisfying as being a queen mother?"

"Queen Mother?" Concubine Chen murmured these two words. She stared blankly at the daughter in front of her, as if she didn't recognize the person in front of her. The daughter who used to be so obedient by her side seemed to have changed. people.

Situ Xue continued: "My mother and concubine also saw the fate of the former prince. Although he is not the father's biological son, he was raised by his father's side. The father was merciless in dealing with him. You are still intoxicated in this My father loves you, but does he really love you?"

"I also saw it with my own eyes when Concubine Xian was the mother-in-law. At that time, the emperor gave all his love to Concubine Xian so that she could not see the beauties in the harem for several months. But later, the queen just provoked Xian Concubine a little bit. The concubine became the most unmentionable existence in his eyes, and even the seventh child was abandoned, but after all, the seventh child had a powerful uncle who could save him from the deep palace, which is why he has achieved what he has today."

"What's behind the concubine? Don't forget that your grandfather is just a minister of the Ministry of War now. After so many years, even if the concubine is favored in the palace, your biological mother is still a concubine. You have no backer. Only if you are strong can you protect our siblings."

Concubine Chen took a breath and said slowly: "But if this matter fails, how will we deal with it?"

Situ Xue looked at Concubine Chen with firm eyes: "We will not lose. Have you forgotten, concubine? When I gave the account book to my father, I told you that the amount of gold in the account book was very different. Concubine I really thought that Zhou Wei and I had been together for many years. Why must I kill Zhou Wei before he surrenders to Situ Jin?"

Concubine Chen's heart skipped a beat and she asked in disbelief: "You... do you have that gold in your hands?"

Situ Xue smiled and nodded: "That's a mountain of gold. The amount is beyond everyone's imagination. What's more, I kidnapped the women and children Zhou Wei was raising outside. It was not only the place where Zhou Wei raised his wife. , or where he hides the gold. In addition, we have been operating in the border town for many years. I naturally have to make some plans for myself, and those secrets are only known to me now. Those words that Zhou Wei has not yet said will forever become If you keep the secret, no one will know it again.”

"Everyone thought I was ruthless and wanted to kill Zhou Wei and his woman and child. In fact, I was just acting in a show, because Zhou Wei's secret must be known to the woman and child. I could only do it with my own hands in front of everyone. Only by killing them can Situ Jin and Situ Jing be trusted, and only then can these secrets never be known to outsiders."

Concubine Chen never expected that her daughter would suddenly tell her all this. She stroked her chest, finding it difficult to accept this fact.
