Chapter 235 The Concubine's Tolerance
Zhao Xi frowned slightly, quite surprised.

The East Palace is not any other place. His Highness the Crown Prince lives here. It is not surprising that someone from the palace is sent here.

Is it...

"First the Empress Dowager sent people over, and then His Majesty also sent people over." Nanny Sun said in a low voice, "Not only that, Marquis Pingyuan also came over in person."

Zhao Xi slightly pinched the tea tureen, skimmed off the foam from the tea leaves, and asked in a deep voice, "What's going on?"

Grandma Sun considered her words: "It's still about Fang Jieyu."

Fang Jieyu...

Zhao Xiwei thought of those beautiful eyes, and inevitably, those bloody eyeballs immediately popped up in his mind.

A burst of stomach gas came up, and she raised her sleeves to cover her face.

Sun Nanny's face turned pale, and she quickly reached out to caress Zhao Xiwei's back, and said softly, "Would you like to invite an imperial physician to take a look?"

"It's okay, it's okay." Zhao Xiwei resisted the urge to vomit and drank a big mouthful of tea, "Go on."

Sun Nanny's eyes flickered, and she said in a low voice: "Concubine Xian has moved to Youyue Palace."

Zhao Xiwei suddenly raised his head: "What?"

The empress concubine suddenly moved to another palace, which actually meant being thrown into the cold palace.It's just a little more decent than being in the cold palace.

Naturally, the emperor would not anger the concubine Xian for such a trivial matter. There is only one person who would do this, and that is the crown prince Li Xuanye.

But because of her affairs, the concubines in the harem were thrown into the cold palace, wouldn't this be too much?
Grandma Sun met her gaze and nodded: "I heard from people in the palace that His Royal Highness originally asked His Majesty to take away the title of Concubine Xian and be demoted to the rank of concubine...but the Empress Dowager went there in person. Only Zichen Palace kept the position of Xianfei."

Zhao Xiwei's heart couldn't be described as shocked at this time, it was as if the sky was falling apart, she was speechless for a long time while holding the tea.

No matter how close Nanny Sun is to herself, she still belongs to the eldest princess. The eldest princess is the only child of the empress dowager.

No matter what, there are some things that she is not suitable to say to Nanny Sun.

"Then what happened to Marquis Pingyuan today? Could it be that the Pei family is involved in this matter?" Zhao Xiwei thought for a moment, then slowly started another topic.

"Princess Concubine, you don't know anything about the situation in the palace." Sun Nanny's face was troubled, and her voice was somewhat hesitant: "Concubine Xian and Concubine Noble have been at odds for a long time, but Concubine Xian is deeply loved by the Empress Dowager. Most of the power in the hands of the imperial concubine has been divided. Now that the concubine Xian has moved to another palace, it is a great opportunity for the imperial concubine to seize power."

"Oh..." Zhao Xiwei nodded lightly.

The Marquis of Pingyuan is the natal family of the noble concubine, and at this kind of time, he wants to see His Highness the Crown Prince because he wants to throw an olive branch and take the opportunity to seek benefits for himself.

Seeing Zhao Xiwei's calm expression, Nanny Sun couldn't help feeling a little anxious, and raised her voice slightly: "Crown Princess, think about it, if the noble concubine wants to join hands with His Royal Highness, what is the easiest and most worry-free way?"

Zhao Xi raised his eyebrows slightly, seeing that Nanny Sun didn't answer.

Even if she had already guessed some words, she couldn't say them casually.

"The princess is a smart person, there are some words that don't need to be explained too clearly."

Grandma Sun sighed, "You have met the second young lady of the Pei family, she is very straightforward and transparent, but her temperament is a bit arrogant, but after all, she has known His Highness the Crown Prince since she was a child. Whether it is hunting or kicking, Miss Pei's figure is not missing. Although you are loving and harmonious with the prince now, you can let the servants say something presumptuous. to the point..."

Nanny Sun revealed a worried expression as she spoke: "If Pei's family sends their daughter in at this time, you..."

Nanny Sun swallowed the rest in moderation.

Zhao Xiwei stared at the tea in his hand, thinking about these words carefully.

She remembered the first time she met Pei Zhenzhen.

She was dressed in a red dress like fire, a pair of dark braids, and a dazzling red eyebrow on her forehead.

As Nanny Sun said, she is a clear and transparent woman.

In terms of background, Pei Zhenzhen is really the concubine of the Hou family, but she is just a concubine of the Xiang family.

In terms of family background, the Pei family holds military power, the noble concubine is in charge of the harem, and her father was seriously injured, so whether she can stand up is a problem.

In terms of love, Pei Zhenzhen has been in and out of the imperial palace since she was a child, and is familiar with the princes and princesses, and she has only been married into the eastern palace for a few days.

No matter which one it is, Pei Zhenzhen's advantage is much better than his own.

What Sun Nanny was worried about was not unreasonable. If the Pei family sent their daughter to the East Palace at this time, she really would not have any ability to compete with him.

But what can she do?
Zhao Xiwei rubbed his fingers lightly on the edge of the teacup. After thinking for a long time, he still raised his eyes to look at Nanny Sun: "His Royal Highness is the crown prince of a country. It is impossible for me to be the only woman. As a princess, I naturally You must have the bearing of a princess."

She smiled slightly, as elegant as a orchid under the moon: "Today there is the Pei family who wants to send their daughter in, and tomorrow there will be Yang family, Zhou family, Wu family, Zheng family, Han family, Shen family... The world is so big, women There are so many, if I don't have this preparation, how can I live in the East Palace for a long time."

A couple for life is what many women want in their hearts.

But my mother exhausted her whole life of suffering, but she didn't get a good result.

She has experienced too many hardships in life and witnessed too many changes in human relationships, so she never had this idea.

What's more, the person she is marrying now is the prince, and she is the princess.

It is even more impossible to have such a naive thought.

She never thought about being the prince's sole favorite.

He couldn't help thinking of the second wife Yuan Shi in the mansion. The husband had a concubine outside, and the first thing he thought of was dividing the family property, instead of complaining about how to fight with another woman.

On this point, she still admires Yuan Shi quite a bit.

The reason why she has always been thinking about running the tea shop is because she wants to have such a way out - when one day, if Li Xuanye turns his back on anyone and abandons or neglects her for the sake of a newcomer, she still has her own things to do , backed by its own industry.

Nanny Sun looked at Zhao Xiwei in surprise, trying to find some other emotions on her face.

She was still sitting upright in her seat, wearing a dark blue dress, which was a calm and slightly dull color, but a lot of effort had been made on the fabric, the texture was smooth with fine luster, and it was ingenious. The ground is threaded with pearls and embroidered with vivid peacock feather patterns.

As the breeze blew, the sleeves fluttered gently, and the brilliance flowed, like moonlight shining on the water surface, sparkling stars.

Grandma Sun remembered a night many years ago, she was sitting on the stone steps of Ganlu Hall, looking up at the night sky in the palace in boredom.

The Milky Way is silent, the water waves are faint, and the moonlight falls on the glazed tiles of the palace, exuding a bright and clear brilliance.
