Delicate green plum dressed as the little emperor of green tea

Chapter 361 Dilemma
"What Concubine Xian is talking about, my concubine doesn't understand." Pei Wan tried her best to show her sincerity, "Maybe I have some scheming, but I never have any scheming when it comes to you."

"Concubine Xian is the person the concubine wants to befriend from the very beginning."

"Are you angry because of my talkativeness this morning? I just can't understand Concubine Qi's complacent look."

"It's nothing." Zhen Baozhu stared at her for a while, "I was just joking with you, I have nothing to do here, you can go back."

Pei Wan breathed a sigh of relief, and then stepped back.

Chunlan looked at Pei Wan's back and asked, "Is there something wrong with Pei Changzai?"

"Perhaps." Zhen Baozhu said, "You have someone stare at her, and tell me if there is anything unusual."

Chunlan took the order.

This is Zhen Baozhu's palace, so it is easy to install someone, but it is not so easy for Pei Wan to trust her.

Zhen Baozhu had nothing to do during the day, so she went to learn how to make egg tarts with Concubine Liang.

She asked curiously: "It stands to reason that the concubine's sister is also the emperor's concubine, have you never thought of competing for favor?"

Concubine Liang thought for a while and said: "In the beginning, the first emperor gave me a marriage. I married the emperor who was still a prince at that time. The emperor was young, and his status was there. He was my husband in name. If I say I didn't have any ideas, That is impossible."

"But the prince was too busy at that time, and he was really busy. The first emperor entrusted him with all the political affairs. He never stepped into a woman's boudoir for a moment, and he was not afraid of your jokes when he said it. I married him for half a year. Never saw his face."

"I even wondered in my heart, maybe this prince is too ugly to see us."

"I found out later that the prince is not ugly, but just not interested in women."

"Even after the emperor became the new emperor, this didn't change. It wasn't until my sister entered the palace that the emperor seemed to be a little more popular."

"He is a good man with nothing else in his heart. He only cares about his sister and turns a blind eye to us. That being the case, I don't have to cater to a man who doesn't care about me. After all, whether I cater to him or not, whether he likes me or not, I am Concubine."

"He is still willing to let me do business. I think this emperor is quite a nice person."

Zhen Baozhu generally understands Concubine Liang's thoughts, women who want to die for men who don't love themselves are a minority after all, and there are more women like Concubine Liang who are transparent and have their own hobbies.

Concubine Liang is like this, but what about Empress Shen?

Empress Shen looked weak and beautiful, but after becoming a queen, she was kind and magnanimous. She had never been hurt because of who Lu Zhan liked.

She is so fragile and yet so strong.

I always feel that this person is particularly contradictory.

Empress Shen has never been jealous of the concubines in the harem. Even after the Shen family fell, she was still the same as before.

She doesn't care about Lu Zhan or the queen's position, so what does she care about?
The reason why Zhen Baozhu analyzed Empress Shen was because she was kidnapped by Empress Shen and taken outside the palace to Lord Shen and the regent, so that they could use her to manipulate Lu Zhan.

If it is said that Empress Shen obeyed the will of her father and brother, but it is not that Empress Shen has never disobeyed Duke Shen before.

Zhen Baozhu always felt that Empress Shen was really extraordinary.

Until this morning, Empress Shen deliberately provoked a dispute between her and Qi Ru - although she and Qi Ru would have disputes without instigation.

When Zhen Baozhu returned to the palace, she always felt puzzled, so she simply fell asleep.

Summer afternoons are always extremely hot, and Zhen Baozhu was woken up by the heat.

The palace servant stepped forward to fan her, and Xia Lan reported by the way: "Just now the palace servant saw that Pei Changzai went to the queen's place, but he came over after a while."

Zhen Baozhu said "Yes", and she was certain in her heart that Pei Wan should be the Queen's man.

Pei Wan was worried now.

She was arranged to enter the palace by Empress Shen, but the intention of the family was only to let her work hard to gain the emperor's favor so as to support the family.

However, Empress Shen is always kind to her.

So when Empress Shen asked her to take a look at Zhen Baozhu, she agreed.

Empress Shen not only asked her to stare at Zhen Baozhu, but also asked her to find a way to make Qi Ru and Zhen Baozhu quarrel.

Pei Wan didn't want to do this.

Being in the same palace as Zhen Baozhu, Pei Wan knew more about how much the emperor valued Zhen Baozhu than others.

According to the wishes of the family, she should make friends with Zhen Baozhu.

But the queen is still a queen after all, and the relationship between Queen Shen and the Empress Dowager is also very good, so I'm afraid I can't easily offend her.

Therefore, Pei Wan thought of a compromise method, pretending to hold the injustice for Zhen Baozhu, and vomited the emperor's love for Zhen Baozhu.

Qi Ru is a simple-minded and jealous person, if he knew this, he would definitely be indignant.

Zhen Baozhu has always been a simple person, so she shouldn't be able to see that she deliberately sows right and wrong inside.

However, the facts were beyond Pei Wan's expectations, and Zhen Baozhu immediately saw that her plans were not good.

Pei Wan's mentality suddenly collapsed.

The Pei family has been sitting on the bench for many years because of the eldest princess.

During the year when the new emperor came to power, the Pei family was gradually used. If the Pei family was neglected again because of her relationship, then she would be the nobleman of the family.

Pei Wan was in a hurry, so she went to Empress Shen and said: "Empress, I'm afraid I won't be able to take on your job, just now Concubine Zhen Xian has become suspicious of me."

"What are you afraid of?" Empress Shen glanced at her, "If Concubine Xian just suspected you before, now that you come to look for me, I'm afraid she has already regarded you as her own."

"However, you were recommended by me to enter the palace, whether you work for me or not, in the eyes of Concubine Xian, you are all from me."

Pei Wan was puzzled.

"Don't worry, I will not harm you." Empress Shen showed a gentle smile, "As a queen, I am not favored by the emperor."

"Concubine Zhen Xian is deeply loved by the emperor, and concubine Qi is the direct niece of the empress dowager's mother. Although these two live under the palace, the former is unshakable in the emperor's favor, and the latter is domineering by relying on the empress dowager's power."

"I don't have any other ideas, I just want to make the two of them fight, and I just want to reap the benefits of the fisherman."

"I have never thought of becoming an enemy of the emperor. If you work for me, this harem will also benefit from you."

Empress Shen comforted Pei Wan in this way.

Pei Wan felt at ease, and when she returned to the palace, she felt anxious again.

She's just a little presence.

Behind the empress is the empress dowager, Zhen Baozhu is deeply loved by the emperor, and concubine Qi is the niece of the empress dowager's aunt.

But put her a little person on the fire to roast.

Now that Zhen Baozhu has not yet confronted the queen, given time, if Zhen Baozhu and the queen confront each other, wouldn't the first sacrifice be her who has no foundation?

Difficult, it is so difficult to be a little concubine.

Pei Wan vaguely knew that she should choose between Empress Shen and Zhen Baozhu.

But who to choose?
