Chapter 15 The Crown Prince's Concubine

The extremely oppressive atmosphere was broken by this hurried voice, and the queen breathed a subtle sigh of relief.

After letting out a gentle breath, the Queen softened her voice and said, "Let him in."

"yes."

Xiao Changhai quickly stepped across the threshold and saluted the Queen respectfully: "I have met the Queen and all the princesses."

"Mr. Xiao, please show up." The queen raised her eyes, "Does your Majesty have any orders?"

When the air became quiet, Xiao Changhai smiled respectfully and said, "I heard Miss Qinglian's message that Princess Nanyang wanted to see me, and I'm here right now."

The color in the Queen's eyes darkened, and she said with a calm smile: "Princess Nanyang has such a great reputation that even I don't dare to use Eunuch Xiao like this."

"The Empress can kill this slave." Xiao Changhai leaned over, "As long as the Empress gives orders, this slave will not hesitate to die."

That’s what they say, but it’s really just what they say.

After all, which concubine in the harem would be stupid enough to order the emperor's chief steward at will?

Xiao Changhai turned to Yan Li and saluted: "Your Highness the Princess, do you have any instructions for summoning your servants?"

Yan Li said calmly: "Please, Mr. Xiao, please go to the Ninth Prince's Mansion again and send a message to the Ninth Prince."

"Princess, please speak."

"Emperor of the South and King of the North, Lord of the East and Reserve of the West."

Xiao Changhai pondered for a while and wondered what this sentence had to do with the marriage granted by the emperor. He didn't know who the Southern Emperor and the Northern King were, and he didn't know what the Eastern Monarch and the Western Concubine were. However, Miss Yan was now the treasure in front of the Emperor, and he must not It's against her will.

So Manager Xiao quickly resigned and decided to personally go to the Ninth Prince's Mansion again - taking the rejected imperial edict and relaying Yan Li's words to Ninth Prince Mu Cang word for word.

After hearing these words, Mu Cang's expression became visibly tense: "Did Yan Li say this himself?"

"Yes, I don't dare to fool the prince. It is indeed what Miss Yan said herself."

Mu Cang's handsome face was calm, but there were some ripples in his usually indifferent eyes. He did not speak immediately and was silent for a while, "Give me the imperial edict."

Xiao Changhai almost thought that he heard wrongly, and stammered: "Wang...what did the prince say?"

"Imperial decree."

Oh, holy decree.

Xiao Changhai quickly took out the imperial edict, put it respectfully on the desk, and then resigned respectfully. He didn't even dare to ask more: "Did the prince accept the edict?"

After laying down the imperial edict, he turned around and left in a hurry, not daring to delay for a moment.

Emperor of the South, King of the North, King of the East and Prince of the West?

Mu Cang looked at the imperial edict of marriage on the desk. He released the tea cup with his slender fingers, slowly picked up the edict and unfolded it. He stared at the four words "Princess Nanyang" on the bright yellow edict and remained silent for a long time.

…

After Xiao Changhai left, there was a strange silence in Fengyi Palace for a moment.

"Do you think you can get the Ninth Prince to agree to this marriage by pretending to be mysterious?" Mu Xue snorted coldly, breaking the silence, "What a wishful thinking."

Except for Muxue, the other princesses looked at each other cautiously, lowered their eyes and stopped talking.

As concubine princesses, they have learned to watch people's emotions since they were young. Yan Li's current behavior is clearly different from the rumors. She is not afraid of the queen, the princess, the prince and the princess. No matter if she is really brainless, she will Only because of her father's pampering can the villain succeed, or if she really has the confidence to win, they shouldn't be stupid enough to cause trouble for her at this juncture.

If she wins, the person who caused trouble for her will definitely be punished by the father later. Just look at the prince and princess who are still kneeling outside.

If she loses, the Queen will not thank them for making trouble for Yan Li.

It's no good anyway.

And Yan Li looks too weird, so let’s wait and see what happens.

"Yan Li." The queen probably saw that Yan Li was determined not to take any hard words, so she had to soften her tone and said, "I know that the prince's breakup of the engagement has hurt you a lot, and you are still angry in your heart. As long as you agree to intercede with the emperor, , I will make the decision to marry you to the crown prince as his concubine, what do you think?"

The prince's concubine?

Yan Li almost laughed. She seemed to have heard a big joke. She looked at the queen with a look that was three parts cold, three parts sarcastic, and four parts incredulous: "You want me to be the prince's concubine?"

The queen frowned: "I'm not a concubine, I'm a concubine——"

"The side concubine is also a concubine." Yan Li interrupted her, "Only the Jiang family's legitimate daughter outside regards the prince as a favorite, and I'm not blind. Not to mention a concubine, not even the main wife is possible, the queen He really loves to joke."

As soon as these words came out, the queen's face turned cold to the naked eye: "Yan Li, why are you pretending to be noble? If you really don't even like the crown prince and concubine, why are you rushing to marry the Ninth Prince?"

"The Ninth Prince is the Ninth Prince. He is very different from the Crown Prince." Yan Li stood up and looked at the Queen with a downward gaze. Her voice was as cold as frost. "The Crown Prince is not worthy of being compared with him." Tian Lai novel network

After saying this, she turned around and left without even the etiquette of resigning.

The queen's face seemed to be covered with a layer of ice, and her fingers wearing exquisite armor were holding the tea cup tightly, and she could hardly help but smash the tea cup on her head.

This damn little bitch!

She must cut her into pieces and let her die without a burial place!

The princesses were silent and their faces turned a little pale. They probably had never thought that there were people in the palace who were so bold and dared to be so arrogant in front of the queen.

Is Yan Li really stupid or not?

When she stepped out of the palace, Yan Li inevitably met the eyes of Mu Xiuhan and Jiang Jingyue again. She looked at Jiang Jingyue in a good mood. In the past few days, the Crown Princess accompanied the Crown Prince to kneel in Fengyi Palace to copy the "Tao Te Ching" every day. Two hours in the morning and two hours in the afternoon. Jiang Jingyue's delicate body could hardly bear it. She was shaky and the pain was written on her face.

But she had to bear it even if she couldn't bear it. Who made her the Crown Princess?

No matter how painful it was for her to kneel, even if her knees hurt like a needle, she didn't dare to be lazy. She endured the inhuman torture and copied every word.

Even the Queen didn't dare to ask them to get up, because once it was heard by the Emperor, it was very likely that they would not even be able to keep their position as the crown prince.

Jiang Jingyue dreamed of becoming the Queen in the future. How could she watch the Crown Prince's position lose its security?

So she could only endure it, endure it strongly, endure it painfully, and endure it until the day when the bitterness was over and the sweetness came.

"The Crown Prince and the Crown Princess are truly a loving couple, sharing happiness and hardships together." Yan Li said mockingly, "It's really admirable."

After saying that, she walked away from Fengyi Palace leisurely, leaving the two people full of resentment to continue kneeling and copying books.

Bitch!

Jiang Jingyue cursed fiercely in her heart, but she didn't dare to curse out loud at all, fearing that she would destroy her gentle and lovely image in the Crown Prince's heart.

But she didn't know that no matter how gentle and considerate she acted, how affectionate she was, Mu Xiuhan, who had suffered so much these days, had no intention of looking at her at all. He was already dissatisfied with the Taifu Mansion in his heart.

If the Jiang family hadn't been unable to handle even this little thing, would he have been punished like this?
