imperial concubine

Chapter 129
The reason why Su Wan lowered her head was not because what the second concubine said just now shocked her, but because Su Wan wanted to take this opportunity to cover up the appreciation in her eyes.

The second concubine is the only force in the palace that can compete with the crown prince, so it is not beyond Su Wan's expectation to have such thoughts.It's just that the second concubine dared to talk to herself like this, without a bit of responsibility and courage, she couldn't do it at all!

After contemplating for a while, Su Wan raised her head and said to the second concubine: "What the second concubine said is very reasonable. However, Su Wan has just entered the palace, how can I make the water for making tea?"

Seeing Su Wan asking, the second princess smiled triumphantly.Su Wan's mentality is the same as when she first entered the palace. Although she is smart, she lacks insight into the situation. As long as she wins her over now, she will definitely get another general in the future!
Thinking of this, the second princess said to Su Wan: "If you want to make the water for making tea, you must have a big fire to support it. Although my sister has just entered the palace, one of the two fires in the palace already has water on it. My sister doesn't know, does she?"

In this harem, only Concubine Shu and Empress are the two powers.One of the water on the fire obviously refers to His Royal Highness.The second concubine's words are undoubtedly explaining to Su Wan that you can only rely on yourself now.

After Su Wan thought about it carefully, she frowned and said to the second concubine: "Sister-in-law also knows that on the night of the Nobile Night Banquet, my sister snatched this nobile from the eldest lady of the original family. Today in Kunning Palace, Concubine Shu The empress is also very dissatisfied with me. Under such circumstances, how can I participate in these two fires?"

On the night of the Nobile Night Banquet, Yuan Yilan followed Concubine Shu's order to make trouble, but she didn't want to kill Su Wan halfway and mess up the situation they had worked so hard to make.Concubine Shu was of course somewhat dissatisfied with Su Wan.

Hearing Su Wan's words, the second concubine smiled and said to Su Wan: "Sister, don't worry. Concubine Shu has her own sister-in-law. I will explain it to you. My sister is waiting for the good news in Yiliang Palace."

If Su Wan was willing to be drawn over by him, Concubine Shu would naturally not be angry with Su Wan because of those trivial things at the Nobile Night Banquet.After all, Concubine Shu has been contending with the Queen in the harem for many years, and it is clear which is more important.

Su Wan knew in her heart that as long as she told Concubine Shu about this matter, Concubine Shu would definitely settle down with her.Since the second concubine wanted to sell her favor with a few words, she followed suit.

Thinking of this, Su Wan stood up and said to the second princess: "The younger sister thanked sister-in-law here first. My sister-in-law's kindness today will definitely be remembered by my sister in the future."

The second concubine sitting at the top smiled and nodded, knowing that Su Wan had agreed to stand by her side.Although it was just an empty promise for her now, he would naturally tie her to him slowly in the future.

So the second concubine picked up the tea bowl and said to Su Wan: "My sister is so strange, I just invite her to play the piano and drink tea. Why should my sister care about such trivial matters? Come, drink tea."

The two exchanged pleasantries for a while in Shangjin Palace. Su Wan knew that she had finished what she had to say, so she found a pretext to get up and leave, "Sister-in-law, there are still some unfinished business in Yiliang Palace, so my sister won't bother you." .”

This reason was used by the fourth prince when he left Kunning Palace this morning. At this time, Su Wan told the second prince and concubine that it was still so useful, although he didn't know whether it was true or not.

The Second Prince naturally knew that Su Wan's words were an excuse, but now she really needs to go back and discuss with the Fourth Prince carefully.It would be great if the Fourth Prince could be temporarily pulled over.

Su Wan got up to leave, and the second concubine sent her out of the door.Looking at Su Wan's chariot walking away, the second prince who hid just now came from one side and said, "Xiaodie, does she intend to join us?"

The second prince had some rifts with the fourth prince before, and in the end the second prince put the fourth prince to the brink of death.Today, the second concubine told the second prince that she would win over Su Wan.Although the second prince didn't believe it, he invited Su Wan over.

Hearing the second prince's words, the second prince concubine smiled, "Don't worry, Your Highness. Although this Su Wan is smart, she doesn't know much about the situation in the palace. This is the perfect opportunity to win her over. If she gets familiar with the situation in the palace in the future , it will be difficult and difficult to win over."

With Su Wan's intelligence, if he hadn't deceived her that she was not familiar with the situation in the palace, he might not be able to shake her mind in such a short period of time, let alone win her over to his side.

Seeing the smile on the face of the Second Prince Concubine, the Second Prince gently grabbed her hand, "My family Xiaodie is the smartest, since Xiaodie said yes, then of course it is possible."

Speaking of this, the second prince paused, "It's just that this Su Wan had a rift with the eldest cousin before, and it also ruined the matter of the concubine mother. I don't know how you feel about concubine mother when you win her over?"

Su Wannai is a talented woman with a gold hairpin, which is well known in the palace.On that day, Su Wan was hand-picked by Yun Jingya at the Nobile Night Banquet, and this was something that the empress mother had always been a little bit upset about.

Hearing the second prince's words, the second concubine smiled and said, "Your Highness, don't worry. I'm the one to discuss the matter with the concubine mother. Presumably the concubine mother will not hate Su Wan just because of a trivial matter. What's more, now that Su Wan You have to rely on it."

Originally, the plan for the Nobile Night Banquet was just to vent her anger on the mother and concubine, but now it would be great if she could use such a small matter to draw Su Wan over.What's more, even if you can't pull it over, if you make friends with Su Wan now, maybe you can use it in the future.

Seeing that the Second Prince was so confident, the Second Prince looked at her with a doting smile and said, "Xiao Die is really my good helper. Thanks to Xiao Die's help this time, we were able to bring the Fourth Prince over as a weapon. "

Regardless of whether Su Wan sincerely took refuge in him, or temporarily made false promises to him, as long as the fourth prince was still alive, the second prince would not be able to treat Su Wan sincerely.After all, that chair has everyone salivating.

Hearing the second prince's praise of herself, the second concubine smiled lightly, "This Su Wan is quite intelligent. If she wasn't for the fourth concubine, she might be our right-hand man."

There was a bit of regret in her tone.After all, Su Wan is now the fourth prince's concubine, but with this status, it is doomed that the two parties can only be a temporary alliance, and they will definitely part ways in the future.

The second prince clenched the catkin in his hand, and said affectionately to the second prince concubine, "Xiaodie is indeed my good wife. Xiaodie will think of everything before me. With Xiaodie, I really have a lot of thoughts left." .”

The second prince concubine smiled shyly and leaned on the second prince's shoulder.Seeing her leaning on his shoulder, the second prince looked into the distance with both eyes, his thoughts were like a sea, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Su Wan returned to Yiliang Palace, where the fourth prince was waiting for her.Seeing Su Wan walking in, he quickly asked, "Sir, how did you go with the second princess when you went to Shangjin Palace this time?"

At this time, the fourth prince had already cast his eyes on Su Wan, and was fully prepared to follow Su Wan's plan.The first step in Su Wan's plan is to take refuge in the second prince's side.This is the first step of the plan, and it is no wonder that the Fourth Prince is concerned about it.

Looking around at the maids who hadn't retreated, Su Wan said indifferently: "You all go out. My Palace and His Highness have something to say. No one is allowed to enter the palace without my Palace's order."

Only then did the fourth prince remember that just now he was concerned about whether Su Wan's trip would be successful, but he forgot to dismiss the surrounding palace people.If the matter between himself and Su Wan was spread by these people, the consequences would be disastrous.

After the palace people around stayed away, Su Wan smiled and said to the fourth prince: "Your Highness, don't worry. This time the second prince and concubine really wanted to win me over. But, I didn't agree."

Just now in the Shangjin Palace, although Su Wan expressed willingness to obey the orders of the second princess, both of them knew in their hearts that it was just an empty promise and it was useless at all.

Hearing Su Wan's words, the fourth prince frowned and said: "Mr. told me before leaving that if you want to have a chance in the future, you have to take advantage of the second prince and the prince. But such a good opportunity just now, why would Mr. Is it unacceptable to push it?"

If it was according to Su Wan's plan, at this time Su Wan should have reached an agreement with the second princess to help each other.However, everything was ready, but Su Wan rejected the proposal in the end?
Su Wan sat down, poured herself a cup of tea, and said to the fourth prince: "First, although the person in charge of the second prince seems to be the second prince's concubine, the only one who can really call the shots is Concubine Shu. So No matter what the result of the discussion between me and the second concubine is, it doesn't matter. Only after Concubine Shu nods, can we truly take refuge."

The fourth prince nodded when he heard the words. Although the second prince concubine has a great reputation in the palace, for those of them who know the behind-the-scenes things, Concubine Shu is the real head of the second prince family.

Seeing the fourth prince nodding, Su Wan went on to say: "Secondly, if the second concubine raises the question, we will agree. It would seem that we are a little impatient. Only if we can hold our breath, we will not be easy to be used by them in the future."

Hearing Su Wan's words, the fourth prince nodded frequently.In this plan, what he was most worried about was being used as a spear by the second prince.If that's the case, I'm afraid that instead of damaging the second prince's strength, he will fill in all his family background.

After pondering for a while, the fourth prince said to Su Wan: "Since this is the case, should we take the initiative to make friends with the second prince in the palace now, or stand still and wait for news from them?"

From the moment Su Wan came back, every move of Yiliang Palace will be closely watched by all forces in the harem. If you want to express your attitude, now is the best opportunity.

Su Wan took a sip of the tea and let out a comfortable breath. This is the tea she brought from home. Although it is not as good as the second prince's concubine, she still prefers her own tea in comparison.

Putting down the teacup in his hand, Su Wan said to the fourth prince: "Of course not. Now the second concubine wants to win over the Yiliang Palace. If we take the initiative to show our favor now, wouldn't it be self-defeating? It's good to hold back at this time, it won't be long." God, Concubine Shu will invite us."

Hearing Su Wan's words, the Fourth Prince was skeptical, but Su Wan got up and left the main hall.The quiet room that the fourth prince promised her before has been prepared. Today is a tiring day, fighting wits in the Kunning Palace in the morning, and wrestling in the Shangjin Palace in the afternoon. Even Su Wan is a little tired.

As Su Wan expected, the next day, Concubine Shu sent over an invitation card, inviting the newly married fourth prince and concubine to go to her to enjoy the miraculous skills.
