Peerless Consort Wants to Divorce - C441
These concubines in the harem who had been ignored by Song Yunqian for so many years were unwilling to leave. After all, there were not many opportunities for them to get so close to the Emperor, but since Song Yunqian had spoken, they could only leave.
Only Noble Consort Lan stayed by her side with a face full of worry, as if she hadn’t heard Song Yunqian’s words.
“Noble Consort Lan, you should go back as well. When Imperial Concubine Liang wakes up, we will tell him that you are very worried.” Song Yunqian’s words were straightforward, he never would have thought that the Noble Consort Lan, who normally had a very low sense of presence, would actually become the last one to leave.
Although the relationship between Noble Consort Lan and him had always been good, it was not to the extent that it would go against his will.
“Your Majesty, Chenqie and Imperial Concubine Liang’s relationship is the best. She’s still unconscious, Chenqie …” When Noble Consort Lan raised her head to look at Song Yunqian, her eyes were filled with tears, as if she was worried for Imperial Concubine Liang.
That kind of gaze was something that Song Yunqian was once familiar with, the same as when Yang Luofan looked at him many years ago, filled with anticipation.
However, after going through the blue sea, all of these clumsy tricks no longer stirred the slightest bit in his heart.
Maybe waking up the ruler of the world, the drunk sleeping beauty’s knees were the ideal of most men in the world, but they were not his. He only wanted to be together with Wen Yi and live the rest of his life comfortably.
As long as he had Wen Yi, all the other beauties were nothing more than roadside landscapes to him, he had given his all to Wen Yi, he could no longer give any of them to anyone else.
“I know you’re very worried, but I want to accompany her alone.” Towards this woman that had intentions towards him, Song Yunqian would not hesitate to be frank and honest with him. He just wanted Noble Consort Lan to know that he didn’t like her presence here.
Although the Noble Consort Lan was not favoured, she was still the person with the highest position in Song Yunqian’s imperial harem before Ke Er entered the palace.
But he didn’t expect that before he had even made a move, the outcome was already decided.
Her heart ached so much that she almost wanted to cry.
She would never have imagined that the happy future her father had described to her would be like this.
“Your Majesty, Chenqie …” Noble Consort Lan stood up with a face full of grievance. She still wanted to speak, but before she could say anything, Song Yunqian took the lead and said: “You did a very good job before. If you want to be our imperial concubine, then don’t act recklessly.”
This was Song Yunqian’s final warning.
Because of Wen Yi, she had always treated women with more respect than others. This was also the reason why he had never been fortunate enough to have a harem in all these years.
Actually, as long as he was willing to, with flowery words and gentle words, he could make many women in the palace his servants, and then he could use the imperial harem to change the situation. However, he had always disdained using such methods.
However, this did not mean that he did not have to use it. If it really crossed his bottom line, then he would absolutely not show mercy.
The Imperial Concubine Liang was a good example.
Noble Consort Lan was a smart person, she immediately understood what Song Yunqian meant, and the tears in her eyes gushed out.
“Your majesty, the Chenqie also wants to be this imperial concubine. But if the Chenqie continues to be the same as before, what is the ending for the emperor to be on good terms with the Chenqie?” Noble Consort Lan finally mustered the courage to ask softly.
Noble Consort Lan had obviously used all of her courage. After she finished speaking, she stubbornly stood there with her head lowered, waiting.
“At the very least, the one waiting for you won’t be a lonely cold palace.” Song Yunqian said to Noble Consort Lan seriously.
Noble Consort Lan raised her head, looked at Song Yunqian, and asked word by word, “What if Chenqie wants the Emperor to grant her love?”
Noble Consort Lan’s words were spoken boldly but Song Yunqian did not expect it. He raised his head, smiled at Noble Consort Lan, and said softly: “Then it will depend on how many sacrifices you have made for us.”
“Then Your Majesty, the family of Chenqie …” The joy in Noble Consort Lan’s eyes became even stronger, and after hesitating for a moment, she asked.
“The Noble Consort Lan wants too much. There aren’t so many two things in the world, and furthermore, your parents have long sacrificed you for the family’s power. They are still worth you …” Song Yunqian sighed from the bottom of his heart.
He knew about Noble Consort Lan’s situation before she entered the palace that Noble Consort Lan had already been engaged to his cousin ever since he was young. It was just that unlike Liang Gui, her cousin’s family was in decline, but the two of them had been in contact and Noble Consort Lan had always wanted to marry his cousin.
However, she didn’t expect that her father would ignore her engagement and send her to the palace.
It was also because the Noble Consort Lan’s heart belonged to someone, that Song Yunqian made her his imperial concubine. It was because he was confident that she wouldn’t pester him like other women.
Originally, seeing that she had settled down in the palace and did not collude with Liang Gui, Song Yunqian already had the thought of letting her succeed. It was just that he had always been looking for an opportunity, but didn’t expect …
“This Chenqie understands. This Chenqie does not ask for your forgiveness for their crimes. They are my parents after all. If that day really comes, I hope that the Emperor can spare their lives.” There was no longer any persistence in Noble Consort Lan’s words. She had already lost all feelings for the family that had destroyed her love, and this request of hers could be considered as fulfilling her duty as a daughter. As for the final result, it was still left to fate.
“As long as you pay the price, I will do as you wish.” The meaning behind her words was still the same as before, but Noble Consort Lan was also clear that the price that she had to pay should be very, very big, to the point that she herself might not be able to bear it.
“Since Chenqie has something she wants from Your Majesty, she has decided to be ordered by the Emperor. Chenqie is willing to be her lackey, and once everything is settled, I can grant you a marriage.” Noble Consort Lan kneeled on the ground devoutly as she pleaded.
“In a few days, you will become my most beloved imperial concubine. When that time comes, you can be arrogant and despotic, and you can act as you please without a care in the world. This emperor …” Song Yunqian didn’t know how to continue, he only looked at Noble Consort Lan with a questioning face.
“The Chenqie will do as the Emperor wishes, but at that time, Sect Leader Wen Yi will suffer a little grievance …” The Noble Consort Lan was a smart person, after hearing Song Yunqian’s words, she knew that she had to become a target of the harem. But for the things that she wanted, she had to do them.
“Zhen will tell her. You have to stop at enough, just in case you hurt her …” Song Yunqian was still worried as he told her this. Seeing Song Yunqian being so nervous, the smile on Noble Consort Lan’s face became wider.
“It’s even better to hurt Clan Master Wen Yi, she can recover from her injuries naturally, wouldn’t it be better to avoid the complicated matters and people in the palace?” Noble Consort Lan suggested softly. When Song Yunqian heard this, his face was filled with surprise.
“You are quite smart, but you cannot injure her. If you injure her, naturally, there will be people who will suffer even more injuries.” Song Yunqian warned her seriously. He felt that it was necessary to let Noble Consort Lan know that there were some things that she couldn’t do willfully or casually.
“Chenqie feels that it is wise to negotiate such conditions with the Emperor.” Seeing that Song Yunqian was tangled up on Wen Yi’s safety, Noble Consort Lan could not help but sigh, as the envious look in her eyes could no longer be concealed.
