Concubine's true colors

Chapter 540
Regardless of his humble status, Su Qin pointed at Empress Xue and yelled constantly as a mere concubine.

Even though the Empress Xue is gone now, the status of the Queen Mother of the Eastern Palace is still there, and Su Qin's practice of no palace rules really made Zhou Xianrui extremely dissatisfied.

But after Zhou Xianrui's cold gaze was felt and seen by Su Qin, her voice stopped abruptly, and she gradually realized that she seemed to have lost her status.

Fearing that it would leave a bad impression in Zhou Xianrui's heart, Su Qin immediately thought of it as soon as he rolled his eyes.

Then, after a heart-piercing cry, Su Qin immediately clutched his three-month pregnant abdomen, rolled his eyes and passed out directly.

Su Qin, who is usually a little clever and knows how to fight for favor, don't look at her choice of pretending to be unconscious, which is a bit old-fashioned, and it is a common trick for concubines in the harem.

But don't forget that she is pregnant now, so Zhou Xianrui's heart tightened involuntarily, and he quickly stepped forward to help her up.

After all, the royal family has always put children first, especially Zhou Xianrui now has no other children except a daughter.

As an emperor, if the number of heirs is thin, it will even affect the restlessness of the previous dynasty.

So even if Zhou Xianrui didn't have Su Qin's place in his heart, he had to take care of her pregnant body.

As for Su Qin, who seemed to be in a coma at first, but was held in Zhou Xianrui's arms, she immediately woke up, snuggled into his arms and said with a delicate expression:

"Your Majesty, what's wrong with me? Why did Qin'er fall into your arms? It must be because I thought of my father just now, and I lost my temper for a while because of my grief. That's why I passed out for a short time. After all, the concubine is still alive If you have to accommodate the little one in your belly, your body will always feel very tired, and even your emotions will be difficult to control yourself. If the concubine has just said something inappropriate, or has done something that His Majesty finds displeased, Your Majesty For the sake of our unborn child, don't be as fussy as Qin'er."

At the end of Su Qin's words, Lihua burst into tears with rain. Xiao Jinxuan, who was standing not far away, saw this scene, but a sneering smile slipped quietly from the bottom of her eyes.

After all, Su Qin fainted one moment, and woke up immediately after being hugged by Zhou Xianrui the next moment.

Xiao Jinxuan could tell that the other party was just pretending all of this just by looking at her.

And when Xiao Jinxuan really didn't want to look at Su Qin's pretentious look, and turned her head away.

It was only now that she saw Shen Wenqing standing beside her, and now her expression was full of loneliness.

Xiao Jinxuan believed that not only could she see Su Qin's obvious act of competing for favor and pretending to be insane, Shen Wenqing who had lived in the back residence of Prince Rui's mansion for so many years would not be deceived either.

Therefore, Xiao Jinxuan knew in her heart that the other party was feeling lonely. She, sister Shen, was probably feeling aggrieved because she had no children, so she could only watch Su Qin and the others conceive, and also felt uncomfortable and aggrieved by using this to invite favor.

The relationship between Xiao Jinxuan and Shen Wenqing, when Prince Rui's Mansion fell, the two of them had experienced life and death together, and they had always been extremely close and harmonious.

So just now, Xiao Jinxuan saw that Queen Xue's matter had not been completely dealt with. Originally, she didn't want to pay attention to Su Qin's hypocrisy, and wanted to quickly deal with the matter of Fengxiang Palace.

After all, how Zhou Xianrui's concubine invites pets has nothing to do with her, and she really can't do anything to interfere.

But if Su Qin did it, Shen Wenqing would be wronged and feel uncomfortable.

Xiao Jinxuan, who has always been extremely protective of those around her, can't see it.

But at this moment, Su Qin still didn't know how to restrain himself. Empress Xue's business hadn't finished yet, and she still nestled in Zhou Xianrui's arms with an aggrieved expression.

One moment she said she had a headache, another moment she said that the child had kicked her in the stomach, and she really regarded the people around her as nothing.

Therefore, whether it is to stand up for Shen Wenqing or not to delay the affairs of Empress Xue, things will change.

Xiao Jinxuan didn't want Su Qin to waste time endlessly, so she couldn't help but said with a cold smile:

"Since Concubine Su feels unwell, she shouldn't have come here with His Majesty just now. Now this is not a place where you, a pregnant person, should stay, and the people serving on both sides of you are all dead. The master is so uncomfortable that he still doesn't help him down and asks the imperial doctor to make a good diagnosis and take care of his pulse. After all, Su Concubine fainted, and only His Majesty can hold her to wake up. Such a strange problem, I don't know if it is caused by the child in his arms, or It's really hypocritical for pregnant people to be so precious."

Xiao Jinxuan's insinuation of Su Qin pretending to be unconscious is self-evident, but everyone present can't hear it.

This time, he was lying in Zhou Xianrui's arms, feeling that he had succeeded in a trick, but Su Qin, who was so proud of himself, couldn't bear it anymore.

In the past, she really respected Xiao Jinxuan and intended to show her affection.

But after she became pregnant, she couldn't help feeling that her status had increased a lot, so she became a little defiant.

Therefore, it can be seen that Su Qin, who has always been servile in front of Xiao Jinxuan in the past, this time retorts very hard and directly:
"Concubine Xiao's lesson is that it is the concubine who is not good at herself and has not taken care of her body. But the concubine's fragile body is pregnant with dragon species. Your Majesty loves the concubine and takes care of it. Concubine Xiao felt that Su Qin was too delicate. The empress was in charge of the harem, so Su Qin naturally did not dare to disobey everything she said. Even if she felt wronged in her heart, or even hurt the fetus in her womb, the concubine would never dare to say a word of complaint. "

Su Qin didn't dare to fight with Xiao Jinxuan, but he was full of complaints, implying that the other party bullied the concubine, but he also expressed it clearly.

And when Su Qin finished speaking, he repeated his tricks and covered his slightly protruding abdomen.

After glaring provocatively at Xiao Jinxuan, Su Qin waited expectantly for Zhou Xianrui to defend her.

After all, since she became pregnant, even though Zhou Xianrui had a cold temper in the past, at this moment, he is still quite obedient.

Basically, the other party would nod and agree to her request, so Su Qin felt that since Zhou Xianrui cared so much about his offspring, he would definitely make the decision for her this time.

But just when Su Qin was thinking about how Zhou Xianrui would reprimand Xiao Jinxuan, suddenly she felt that the embrace behind her disappeared.

Then, before Su Qin came over anyway, Zhou Xianrui, who had already handed her over to the two maids, pulled away and stood beside Xiao Jinxuan, immediately frowned and said:

"Jinxuan's words just now are exactly what I thought in my heart. Concubine Su, you have indeed made a contribution in finding the evidence of the Four Kings' Rebellion this time, so I also agreed to bring you here at your request. But your behavior just now Excessive, this physical discomfort is still holding on to the theory endlessly, but does not know how to care about the fetus in the womb, it is indeed too refined and arrogant. And Jinxuan just said a few words to you, if Concubine Su is angry because of this, she may even You also threatened to hurt the child in your womb, so I think it is really not suitable for you to come out. From now on, staying in your bedroom and recuperating until you give birth is probably the most suitable method for you to conceive. Wen Qing, you immediately Take Su Concubine down, and don't let her stay here to continue disturbing the overall situation."

In fact, Su Qin pretended to be unconscious, how could he hide it from Zhou Xianrui's eyes.

He didn't say anything just now, he was just accommodating that the other party was pregnant and didn't want to worry too much about it.

After all, the fetus in Su Qin's womb is Zhou Xianrui's flesh and blood. He is calm and resolute, but in fact he is not a loving father.

Therefore, Zhou Xianrui does not recommend pretending to be confused and coaxing Su Qin to make the child in the other party's stomach grow better.

However, Su Qin's small means of fighting for favor should be done in moderation. If you blindly think that you are pregnant because you are pregnant, then Zhou Xianrui is not a faint king, and naturally he will not condone the other party's reckless behavior.

Especially when Su Qin came to the end, he pointed the signs directly at Xiao Jinxuan in his words.

In Zhou Xianrui's heart, Su Qin was just a substitute for his indescribable feelings for Xiao Jinxuan from the beginning to the end.

In Zhou Xianrui's eyes, since his love for Xiao Jinxuan is unacceptable, what he can give her is absolute rights and status in the harem.

Anyone who dares to challenge this slightly, he will never allow it.

As for Su Qin who was already waiting for a good show, she was looking forward to seeing how Zhou Xianrui reprimanded Xiao Jinxuan.

But after waiting and waiting, she really didn't expect that what she waited for was that she herself was ordered to ground herself.

And no matter how stunned Su Qin was by this blow, Shen Wenqing, who has always been the most serious situation, has already ordered someone to support her, and the group left without any delay.

Actually speaking, since Su Qin pretended to be in a coma, she was almost forcibly taken away by Shen Wenqing now.

Although she had a verbal argument with Xiao Jinxuan during this period, it didn't take long to go back and forth.

Moreover, during the time just now, Su Qi and others also captured all the people in Fengxiang Palace who still had the strength to resist.

And there are guards and Yeying warriors here, roughly looking at there are more than a hundred people.

Maybe it was the matter of Su Qin just now, Zhou Xianrui always felt a little sorry, so he, the king of a country, could make a decision, but he still asked Xiao Jinxuan at the side for advice:

"Jinxuan, you are in charge of the harem now, so I want to hear your opinion on how to deal with the people in Fengxiang Palace."

Xiao Jinxuan, who had already had a grudge with Empress Xue to the point of death, had been staring at each other in the harem for so long, and now she had a chance to completely bring down the empress dowager.

Moreover, Xiao Jinxuan is well aware of the fact that weeds can't be burnt out and can be regenerated by the spring breeze. Naturally, she will not show mercy at such a moment.

After all, if you show too much kindness to the enemy, it is very likely that you will harm yourself in the future.

Xiao Jinxuan had personally experienced this suffering in her previous life, so she would never make such mistakes in this life.

So after seeing Xiao Jinxuan calmly glanced at the people in Fengxiang Palace, her voice was indifferent, and she said very coldly:

"Returning to Your Majesty, according to Jinxuan, the Empress Dowager Donggong intends to change the baby to disrupt the royal family's lineage, but no one in Fengxiang Palace has reported this matter. This does not mean that they are all kept in the dark, but that they are all committed to guarding against it." Just don’t report the secret. So Fengxiang Palace should immediately send the servants to the guards to the Ministry of Punishment. Even if they are tortured, they must tell the truth. Especially the aunt in charge of the courtyard, Zuo Wen, must not be tolerated. As long as she still has breath, she must try her best to pry her mouth open. As for the Queen Mother Xue, putting her in the sky prison will only cause turmoil and criticism from the front and rear palaces, and even the people. Taking off her phoenix robe, enclosing Fengxiang Palace and listing all the evidence of crimes, and proclaiming it to the world, she will be dealt with according to the laws of the country, Jinxuan thinks this arrangement will be more appropriate."
