The reborn beauty is pregnant again and again

Chapter 509: The Scheming Black Lotus Daughter Vs the Noble and Arrogant Prince 36

Jiang Nanqiu sat quietly in the sedan chair leading to the palace. Since Chief Steward Wang whispered to her not to look around too much, she sat upright and let the sedan chair bump back and forth. After about a quarter of an hour, the sedan chair finally stopped on the palace road.

Steward Wang personally lifted the curtain for Jiang Nanqiu and said with a smile, "The Xianfu Palace where the Imperial Concubine is is in the front. Madam needs to walk down to the ground herself for this section."

So, Jiang Nanqiu and Yu'er walked out of the sedan chair one after another.

In front of the sedan chair was a bedroom with carved railings and jade bricks. Inside and outside the bedroom were planted gorgeous and splendid jade trees. From a distance, the entire courtyard looked like a scene of colorful fallen petals.

Jiang Nanqiu knew that Concubine Shen was favored by Emperor Zhang of Han, and even the Empress had to avoid her.

Although she didn't understand the reason why Concubine Shen summoned her, she had a plan in mind. Whether Concubine Shen wanted to punish her or win her over, she had to play dumb and avoid the topic.

"Madam, you come in." At this time, the smiling butler Wang also walked to the door of the bedroom in Xianfu Palace and bowed to Jiang Nanqiu.

Jiang Nanqiu returned a half-bow, and even though he was very uneasy, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and walk towards the bedroom.

In the bedroom filled with fragrant aroma, Concubine Shen sat on a high seat, with a screen of birds paying homage to the phoenix behind her, which was flamboyant and unrestrained. Four senior palace maids lined up on the left and right of Concubine Shen, looking at Jiang Nanqiu who had just entered the palace like guardians.

Jiang Nanqiu just lowered her head and stared at the blue lotus pattern on the floor tiles. Manager Wang led her to Concubine Shen. Without Concubine Shen's approval, she didn't dare to look up and look at the furnishings in the bedroom.

At this time, Concubine Shen, who was in a high position, was also looking at Jiang Nanqiu carefully.

Jiang Nanqiu just lowered her head, revealing only her fair and smooth forehead above her thin willow-shaped eyebrows. Just a quick glance was enough to show her pure and extraordinary beauty.

"Get up."

Concubine Shen glanced at Jiang Nanqiu with a dull look, and then called her up from her kneeling position.

Jiang Nanqiu stood up, and only then did he have the leisure to look at the furnishings and utensils here. The first thing he saw was the white bird facing the phoenix screen behind Concubine Shen, and then the red coral fire tree on the antique shelf. The rest of the furnishings were also luxurious and precious. It can be seen that the rumors outside are true, this Concubine is indeed deeply favored by the emperor.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Jiang Nanqiu stood up and stood alone in the main hall of Xianfu Palace. Royal Concubine Shen had no intention of asking the palace maids to bring a stool for Jiang Nanqiu.

She looked down at Jiang Nanqiu, her elegant face revealing a cold expression. The long silence brought the atmosphere in Xianfu Palace to its lowest point.

A powerful concubine like Concubine Shen would have some cruel means to control a woman of humble origin like Jiang Nanqiu. However, Jiang Nanqiu just lowered her eyelids calmly and sat in Xianfu Palace.

Concubine Shen didn't say anything to her, and she was happy and at ease. After looking around the furnishings in the palace, she withdrew her gaze. In this case, Concubine Shen couldn't remain silent any longer.

"These days, many young and promising men have emerged in and outside the palace. Not only do they have good family backgrounds, they are also very good-looking." Concubine Shen spoke coldly, but her words left Jiang Nanqiu confused.

No matter how outstanding the men inside and outside the palace are, what does it have to do with her, Jiang Nanqiu?

Jiang Nanqiu didn't understand what she meant and didn't dare to answer Concubine Shen rashly.

Seeing that she was unwilling to take the bait, Concubine Shen said more bluntly, "My daughter has taken a fancy to your husband. She is a spoiled child, and she has never failed to get what she wants. If you are willing to leave me, I will give you enough gold, silver and jewelry to live a prosperous life, and then choose a husband for you that suits your heart and mind."

Concubine Shen believed that the conditions she proposed were flawless. If Jiang Nanqiu was more knowledgeable and sensible, he would agree to it happily.

However, what she didn't expect was that this concubine's daughter of humble origins was actually quite courageous.

Facing her relentless pressure, her fair and beautiful face showed no sign of nervousness. She even frowned and asked herself, "What do you mean, Imperial Concubine? I am your husband's wife, who was married to you through three matchmakers and six engagements. If there are no seven grounds for divorce, how can I ask to be divorced?"

Having said this, Jiang Nanqiu has clearly revealed his attitude.

Concubine Shen was startled at first, then she sneered and said, "You are not willing to accept my toast, so you have to drink the penalty wine."

Jiang Nanqiu was extremely surprised. She never thought that Concubine Shen had summoned her to the palace just for Jing Anzhi.

Princess Qixia has taken a fancy to Jing Anzhi? No wonder Princess Qixia made such a big fuss for Jing Anzhi during the polo match that day? Concubine Shen actually forced her to give up her position as the principal wife? Even though she is a powerful concubine, she should act in a reasonable way. Forcing a concubine to give up her position is really too shocking. Even if it spreads outside the palace, there will be loyal people who speak up for her.

Jiang Nanqiu stood in this cold and solemn palace. Although she was facing Concubine Shen's relentless pressure, she did not have the slightest intention of retreating.

First, she had finally managed to get closer to Jing Anzhi, so she would not fail at this critical moment. Second, Concubine Shen was bullying others so much that if she gave in easily, she would not only lose her own face, but also the dignity of the entire Zhenguo Mansion.

Jiang Nanqiu believed that Concubine Shen would not dare to publicize the matter publicly, and at most would only dare to threaten and bribe her behind her back, forcing her to leave Jing Anzhi on her own initiative.

In this way, Princess Qixia can legitimately become Jing Anzhi's successor, and Concubine Shen and the Sixth Prince will not be caught up in public opinion. If Jiang Nanqiu is knowledgeable and sensible, he should also agree to Concubine Shen's request.

She could not only get a valuable dowry, but also marry a handsome young man in the capital. It was simply the best of both worlds.

Concubine Shen looked at Jiang Nanqiu coldly, and really didn't understand why she was so stubborn and refused to nod.

"As the sage said, only by helping others achieve their goals can one be considered to have done good deeds and accumulated virtue. Qixia is pleased with the prince of the Duke of Zhenguo, and compared to a concubine's daughter of humble origin like you, the princess can bring him a lot of help. If you are willing to abdicate and let others take over, I will give you the red coral fire tree on the antique shelf." Concubine Shen gritted her teeth and threw out a bigger chip.

The red coral fire tree was a rare treasure that was brought as tribute. It was said that the Empress liked it the most, but the Emperor gave it to Concubine Shen. For this, the Empress was very angry. But Concubine Shen didn't care about this small pot of red coral fire tree at all. For her daughter's lifelong event, she was even generous enough to give it to Jiang Nanqiu.

After all, money moves people.
