Wife Hua

Chapter 486 The Harem
The news quickly spread outside the palace. It is said that the emperor celebrated his birthday with Zhao Wang and Zhao Niangniang as if they were a family.

The emperor's words that Zhao Wang most resembled him were indispensable.

The false and true news caused many interested people to look sideways. No matter whether the emperor really valued Zhao Wang or not, the weak Zhao Wang's strength has risen greatly, and he already has the capital to compete with the prince and Qi Wang.

If Zhao Niangniang ascends to the post, the position of the prince will be very embarrassing.

I thought that the white lady who had the best chance broke so many porcelains because of this news. Almost all the porcelain in the palace had to be replaced. After closing the palace door, the white lady scolded Zhao in front of her cronies. Son, what kind of sick child, what kind of black-hearted dirty words blurted out, comparable to a street woman cursing.

Fortunately, she was still sane and didn't bring the maid to quarrel with Zhao Niangniang.

Who the emperor favors, even the former empress can't control, the concubines in the harem can only be company with envy and jealousy, trying their best to please the emperor.

They used to be able to complain to the queen mother, but now the queen mother's influence on the emperor is not as good as that of the princess, or even Princess Anle... There are concubines who claim to be smart, especially concubines who have a princess. The daughter told her that she must perform well in the women's school, strive for the approval of the eldest princess, and befriend Princess Anle.

"Mother, I am the emperor's daughter!"

"The Seventh Princess used to say this a lot before, but now Princess Anle is still the most favored princess by the emperor. Not only was the Seventh Princess killed by the prince, but there is no Seventh Princess in the clan anymore."

No matter how docile and kind a princess is, she has the arrogance of a proud daughter of heaven. The sixth princess is not as favored as the seventh princess, and she is one year older than the seventh princess, but she has been living in the shadow of the seventh princess. Their mother and daughter helped, and the seventh princess died. She thought her chance had come, but the truth was that she still had to please other girls.

"You want to be queen too?"

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

The birth mother, Concubine Qi, hurriedly covered the mouth of the sixth princess, looked carefully, and said softly: "I only gave birth to you, and you are not the most favored concubine. No matter what happens, the next position will not fall on my head. You must remember Don't talk nonsense, and provoke the taboo of the nobles above, I can't even keep you, talking nonsense in the palace will kill you."

The sixth princess pulled down her birth mother's hand, and fear flashed across her eyes. The seventh princess, who was so glorious, died suddenly, and her death was ruined. It was enough to warn the girls living in the harem. His bloodline is on the sidelines.

"I didn't expect you to have great fame, but I just thought that you are already old. I am afraid that you and your grandfather's family alone will not be able to choose a good son-in-law. Don't curl your lips at me. Not all boys with outstanding character are willing Princess Shang's."

Concubine Qi poked her daughter's mouth where she could hang the oil bottle, and sighed: "I'm not sure that I will let you get close to Princess Anle, am I? If you don't change your temper and be sincere to Princess Anle, how can she do that?" Help you? Why don't you stay away from her, so as not to upset Princess Anle with your inappropriate words and deeds."

"Mother, I'm the princess, princess! Even when the seventh sister was still alive, I didn't show weakness in front of a courtier. Doesn't the father have a daughter? Or does the father regard Princess Anle as a substitute for Young General Mu?"

The sixth princess covered her mouth, and carefully tugged on Concubine Qi's cuff, "Mother, I know I was wrong."

"I'm different from those who use their daughters to get close to Princess Anle. I only hope that your father can choose an excellent consort for you. Your father has always stared at Princess Anle. If you are best friends with her, your majesty There is always a chance to see you and remember your marriage, instead of letting the courtiers casually slap you up and assign you to an incompetent dude. You have seen the son-in-law of your aunts. They are some trash who are just waiting to die, relying on the support of the princess mansion."

"I know my mother is doing it for my own good, but I'm just a little bit unwilling."

"You always look for the good, so naturally you won't be reconciled." Concubine Qi, who had experienced the ups and downs in the harem, thought clearly, and said softly: "Most of my former playmates can only be matched with people from the market, and I am better than them." It’s so much better. Although battles are inevitable in the palace, you have to be careful every step of the way, but you can be well-clothed and well-fed, surrounded by servants to serve. It is said that the palace is a dirty and shameful place in the world. It is the envy of women who cannot enter the palace. How can the beauty of the harem be rich and honored by those who have never seen the sky and riches?"

"Do you have the chance of Princess Anle? Do you have her hard work? Do you have the riding and shooting skills of Princess Anle, who is not a weak man?"

"..."

The sixth princess was thoughtful, and Concubine Qi raised her hand and gently stroked her daughter's forehead, "Mu Hua has suffered more than our mother and daughter combined. When you are surrounded by servants, she is suffering. You, as a princess, are suffering. When she was flattered by others, she was despised by others for her inability to argue. If you haven't suffered from her, and if you don't have her opportunities, don't be jealous of her current status. "

"I've asked about Mu Hua. She is very sympathetic to other girls, and she doesn't ask all girls to be like her. Mu Hua's temperament is the most suitable for being friends. You don't have to worry about being by her side at all. You treat her as a follower, she is different from the Seventh Princess. If you look at Mu Hua with a normal heart, you will fall in love with her."

Concubine Qi saw that her daughter listened to it, and there was a reassuring tenderness on her lips: "The emperor likes to dote on Muhua very much, even better than your princess. We don't need to know the reason why the emperor did this. You just need to remember that I love you." Yours, I look forward to seeing you well, you are my mother's baby!"

The sixth princess had red eyes and approached her mother's warm embrace, feeling her mother's hand gently caressing her back, and said sullenly, "At least I'm better than Mu Hua."

"Ok?"

"I have a mother, but she doesn't have mother's love. Even if Mu Qi continues to marry his wife, the wife who comes in later is not her real mother!"

When Concubine Qi heard this, she immediately felt relieved, she looked outside, the night was heavy, she must be very happy and proud, there is only one man in the harem, who would not want the emperor to pamper him more.

She was not able to think so clearly at the beginning. The accumulated loneliness has made her lose any ambitions and extravagant hopes. Her daughter was always by her side.

The emperor naturally rested in Zhao Niangniang's palace, and after a night of favor, Zhao Niangniang was like a moistened flower, as if she had returned to her girlhood, serving the emperor with all her heart and tenderness.

It wasn't until the emperor left that Zhao Niangniang gradually lost her tenderness, and said softly to the servant who congratulated her: "Don't be too happy, the emperor may not be willing to make me the queen!"
