Quick Transmigration: The Supporting Character Just Wants to Die a Natural Death
Chapter 16 The Princess Consort is Virtuous and Kind
"Your Majesty, wake up."
Yao Feiran opened her eyes. The whole room exuded elegance and nobility. The ornaments on the table looked very valuable, and wisps of smoke rose from the exquisite incense burner.
Several women dressed in light green ruqun (traditional Chinese dresses) were lying beside her bed, with the woman in the front crying the most tragically.
This is the ancient world.
The original owner's name was Lin Feiran, the Princess Consort of Chen. She originally had a son and a daughter, but unfortunately, her son died from an epidemic some time ago. The original owner sat on the bed all night without sleeping and finally fainted.
According to the deduction, after losing her son, the original owner's personality changed drastically. She then became disgusted with the women in the royal palace who had children and became a master of abortion.
After Prince Chen ascended the throne, the original owner of this body became increasingly arrogant and even harmed many concubines. When Zhao Yunshu exposed him, Prince Chen was finally disappointed and sent the original owner away with a cup of poisoned wine.
Finally, Zhao Yunshu's son ascended the throne, and she was honored as Empress Dowager, enjoying a life of wealth and honor.
It seems that Zhao Yunshu is a person with great fortune.
"Your Majesty, you've finally woken up."
The maid who cried sincerely by the original owner's side was named Chun Tao. She had been with the original owner since childhood and was also a servant of the Lin family. She was extremely loyal.
The original owner's only son died, which caused her personality to change drastically. Another reason was that her body could no longer conceive, which was tantamount to a death sentence for women in ancient times.
Yao Feiran breathed a sigh of relief. Not having to have children was good, and the original owner already had a daughter. As long as she didn't make any mistakes, no one could shake her position.
Moreover, this body is only in her early twenties, with a noble status, and Prince Chen Xie Che respects her greatly. If the original owner hadn't repeatedly courted death, Zhao Yunshu wouldn't have been able to sway her in the slightest.
"Chuntao, I'm alright now."
Chun Tao's face lit up with surprise, just then a nanny came over with a beautifully made-up girl.
The girl, who looked two or three years old, ran over to Yao Feiran's thin body and burst into tears.
"Mother, please don't get sick. They all say you're going to leave Wan'er."
Yao Feiran glanced at Granny Zhou beside her, who immediately knelt down and said, "This servant doesn't know which damned people were gossiping in front of the princess."
"Get up."
Yao Feiran has been ill for several days, and everyone in the mansion already knows about it. It is estimated that Xie Wan overheard the discussions about it.
Speaking of which, Xie Wan, as Xie Che's eldest daughter, should have been pampered all her life. However, after the original owner of the body passed away, Xie Wan naturally hated Zhao Yunshu and did some irrational things, framing Zhao Yunshu many times. Zhao Yunshu took the opportunity to whisper in her ear and sent Xie Wan away for a political marriage.
"Wan'er, your mother is all better now. Don't cry anymore. Remember to eat well, okay?"
Hearing her mother's gentle voice, Xie Wan finally calmed down. Just then, a shrill sound came from outside.
"The Prince has arrived!"
Then, a tall man dressed in blue-black brocade walked over. He had a handsome face and an indifferent expression. Yao Feiran's expression instantly turned sad, and tears streamed down her face. She looked even more frail and pitiful.
Seeing Yao Feiran's haggard face, Xie Che felt bad. This was his eldest son, who was clever and intelligent. He had placed great hopes on him, but he died of illness.
"Your Highness, please rest well. You still have Wan'er."
"Yes, it's just that I'm having trouble getting out of here, which has caused Your Highness some worry. Wan'er is also my child, and I will try my best to pull myself together."
The original owner didn't usually care much about Xie Wan, thinking she was just a daughter who would eventually get married. However, Xie Che disliked this attitude of the original owner. He had very few daughters, so he cherished them all the more.
Seeing the original owner of this body trying to suppress her grief, and seeing that she was less cold than before and was gently comforting Xie Wan, Xie Che was somewhat surprised, and then felt even more pity for her.
In the original storyline, the original owner resented Xie Che for failing to protect Xie Yi properly and remained indifferent to him.
Yao Feiran knew this was just a plot device, since the original owner's son died of illness, which had nothing to do with anyone else. He was outstanding and the eldest son of the legitimate wife, so he had to give way for Zhao Yunshu's son.
Yao Feiran thought to herself that Zhao Yunshu felt that her status was too low and that she was avoiding the limelight and did not want to have children, so she had been drinking contraceptive soup for several years. During these years, due to the original owner's ruthless methods, the concubines framed each other, and Xie Che's offspring basically died for various reasons, leaving only a princess.
Since she is a princess, she is naturally responsible for having many children in the harem, the more the better, since they will all have to call her mother anyway.
After Zhao Yunshu's son is born, there will be at least dozens of people in the line. By then, we will be able to find an heir who is better than Zhao Yunshu's son. Even if we don't find one, as long as he is not stupid, Yao Feiran will push him to take the position.
Because Zhao Yunshu may seem simple, but she is more ambitious and ruthless than anyone else. This princess is the biggest obstacle to her becoming empress dowager, and she must be eliminated as soon as possible.
Although Yao Feiran disliked Xie Che, she couldn't be as rigid and domineering as the original owner of the body, insisting on putting on airs as a princess. After all, this was an ancient world where most women were appendages of men. Xie Che, a man obsessed with the throne, was a man of his word and didn't like others going against his decisions.
After that, Xie Che often came to see her. Seeing that Yao Feiran was taking care of Xie Wan and doing her best in life and studies, the two became more and more harmonious. Yao Feiran thought that she should be able to get out of her grief, so she began to reflect on her actions every morning and evening.
Currently, there are six women in the royal palace besides the princess: three concubines, two wives, and one secondary consort.
According to the plot, there can only be four wives and two concubines. These positions should be filled as soon as possible, and it would be best to choose some obedient people.
Looking at the women in the backyard, their expressions varied and they each had their own thoughts. Concubine Luo Yuqin, the legitimate daughter of the Minister of Revenue, was nowhere to be seen.
In this backyard, there are always arrogant people, and Luo Yuqin is one of them. The original owner of this body hated her to the core, but Wan Feiran didn't care.
No matter how domineering she is, she is still in charge of the backyard, and her weaknesses are too obvious. This kind of person is the quickest to be eliminated.
"Sister, I went to bed late last night and woke up late."
Luo Yuqin was dressed in a rose-red palace gown, her head adorned with jewels and hairpins, and she walked with a swaying gait, looking every bit the villain.
"It doesn't matter, as long as it can produce offspring for the Prince."
Luo Yuqin cursed inwardly for her pretentious act. Back then, she had miscarried because she ate cold foods, which caused her infertility. She guessed that the princess was deliberately saying this to provoke her.
However, the princess's only legitimate son died, and she was probably even more heartbroken than she was.
Yao Feiran looked at the women in the backyard one by one until she saw a woman in a pale yellow dress looking at her timidly.
Concubine Yueling was two months pregnant but did not know it. Because she bumped into Luo Yuqin while walking, Luo Yuqin punished her by making her kneel for an hour, causing her to miscarry and faint.
There are too few offspring in the harem; they must be kept, otherwise she, as the princess, would be incompetent.
"Moon Concubine, you stay."
Yue Ling was so frightened that she thought she had offended the princess and knelt down on the ground with a thud.
"Your Majesty, spare my life!"
