The Story of the Charming Empress - C56

I thought to myself, because of the death of the emperor, there is a deep estrangement between me and Yang Guang, I already deeply hate his cold-bloodedness, and when he ascended the throne, there will be a large number of beauties to choose from, I only have a name that suits me, but not his heart, I no longer dare to think about the position of queen, I just hope that Zhao’er and I can live in peace for the rest of our lives.

“Does the Empress know who is coveting the empress’s position?” He saw that I was indifferent, so he added.

I have never thought about this question. Yang Guang has a lot of relationships with outsiders, but most of them are worldly women, not enough to become a concubine. I’m afraid that for now, he wouldn’t choose the Queen as his candidate, so he said:

“I’m afraid all the pretty girls in the world are coveting the position of empress. What does that have to do with me?” “After the Crown Prince ascends the throne, he will definitely select a talent that will enrich the harem. I hope that he can choose a virtuous person who will be like the late Empress Dugu, which is the fortune of my Great Sui.” Of course, one shouldn’t be as jealous as Empress Dugu. Otherwise, it would still be rare for Zhao’er and I to be safe and sound. I silently added this sentence in my heart.

“No, this humble subject is talking about the present. I’m afraid the Empress does not know that at this very moment, there is someone bewitching the Crown Prince!” He pointed in the direction of Yang Guang’s study.

“How could that be? [Didn’t the Crown Prince not leave the palace today?] I asked in surprise. Could it be that a girl had really come knocking on my door?

He harrumphed and said angrily:

“The Empress is probably still in the dark. This humble subject is patrolling the estate night and day and has long discovered that something is amiss. It’s only because the Empress has been working too hard these past few days that this humble subject does not dare to report back.” Just now, I heard it by accident, and I am even more sure that there is a mole in our house! ”

My heart sunk as I asked, “Who?”

“Chen Zhen.” He said.

The pen in my hand landed on the paper with a “plop” sound. My heart suddenly ached. I thought I had misheard, so I asked:

“Who is it?”

“If the Empress doesn’t believe it, then go take a look.” He turned and walked out of the hall.

I stood there for half a day, as if struck by lightning. Even Zhao’er didn’t move from her spot. She only tightly embraced Zhao’er with hatred in her eyes.

Chen Ho–it was indeed a friendship. It was only because he had been soft-hearted at the time, thinking that he was suspicious, and because of his compassion for her background, that he had been able to leave behind the calamity of today.

However, Chen Wu, she followed me for so many years and has actually hidden it from me for so long. Perhaps from the beginning, she and Yang Guang had a personal relationship, but because she was in the way of the Empress, she did not dare to make a fuss. Now that the Empress had passed and Yang Guang’s enthronement was already in front of them, what more did they have to worry about?

As for me, being with her day and night, I didn’t know in the slightest that her patience was comparable to Yang Guang’s.

If she wanted to be a queen, according to my understanding of Chen, I would never be able to accept her. Firstly, I am her master, and secondly, I am Yang Guangzheng’s wife and eldest son. I’m afraid she will treat me as her greatest threat.

Even if I treat her as a sister, but once mixed with power and desire, the friendship between people will turn into a sharp sword. The closer I get to someone I know, the more accurate and profound it becomes.

Yang Guang can even disregard the feelings of father and son, not to mention that I and Chen are only master and servant.

But in my heart, I know that Yang Guang would never consider Chen Zhong as a descendant, because she is a daughter of the late Southern Chen and at most a consort.

Although he was thinking about it but he was still worried about it. So he slowly walked to the study room. When the guard outside the study saw me, he wanted to go in and inform me, but I stopped him. I just walked quietly to the door and stood there.

“Your Highness, in three days, you will ascend to the throne. This servant can’t follow you around like this forever, right?”

“How could that be? “If you put up with it for a few more days, and wait for me to ascend to the throne, then I will make you a nobleman. What do you say?” Once upon a time, Yang Guang’s gentle words still lingered in his ears, but the person in his arms was no longer an old man.

“Your Highness is so petty. As long as Zhuan’er follows by your side, he won’t care about his position. It’s just a title, but if Your Highness really only bestowed him with the title of a mere noble, then I’m afraid that you’ve wronged our child.” Chen Qiaodi’s voice rang in my ears, but it pierced my heart like a sharp arrow — Son, she actually had Yang Guang’s child!

I let out a long breath to quell the burning anger in the center. Grandma said that the reason for the palace’s women’s existence was only one word: endure.

“There’s still a lot of time in the future. If you give birth to Lin’er for the sake of loneliness, do you still fear that loneliness will not seal your high position?” Yang Guang roared.

“High position? What high position? If this servant gave birth to a prince, would His Majesty bestow this servant the title of empress? “Cluck, cluck …” Chen Zhen laughed. So she really was after the position of Queen. Moreover, she dared to speak so directly in front of Yang Guang. Thus, the intimacy between the two of them had long surpassed my relationship with Yang Guang.

I felt a stifling sensation in my heart. I didn’t know when, but the center of my palm was tightly clenched. The long, white jade armor pierced my skin and a heart-wrenching pain spread throughout my body.

“How can he be so naughty? Even though it’s only three days, we can’t call him ‘Your Majesty’ so easily. The position of Empress is definitely Xiao Fei’s. Yang Guang said with a smile.

The Empress must be Consort Xiao? I repeatedly pondered this sentence, trying to figure out how much of it was true love. I wasn’t really surprised, I only thought that Yang Guang must have been extremely disgusted with me after the passing of the previous emperor, because I understood his hidden filth.

“Your Highness has truly enjoyed the blessings of being one with the people. Your servant will definitely serve Your Highness well with the princess.” But His Highness was biased, wasn’t it only the princess who gave birth to Prince Zhao? Your servant’s stomach is also the flesh and blood of His Highness. ” Chenghu pretended to be annoyed as he protested coquettishly.

“When did he become so petty? “Imperial Concubine Xiao is only a concubine and has an elder son. It is reasonable for her to be of such character that she is the perfect candidate for being the empress. She cannot be jealous, and cannot be careless.” Yang Guangyu had a slight sense of blame.

“Your Highness, don’t be angry. Your servant and princess are like sisters, how can I be jealous?” It’s just a joke today, I don’t dare anymore! ” Chen Zhen heard the reproach in Yang Guang’s voice and said respectfully.

I couldn’t help but sneer in my heart. What good luck! What a sister! Each sentence was as chilling as an iceberg, chilling to the heart.

“Esteemed wangfei!” There was a servant girl who came to deliver tea by my side. When she saw me standing at the door, she bent down and called out to me.

When the two people in the study heard the sound, their voices immediately stopped. I pushed open the door and saw Chen Zhong leaning on Yang Guang’s side. His charming eyes shifted from Yang Guang’s face to mine.

Ying Ying took a few steps forward, bowed and said:

“Elder sister.”

Elder sister? A bitter smile appeared on my lips. Did she change her words so quickly?

“Why do I sound so awkward? Don’t you think your shout is wrong? ” I said coldly. My gaze had already shifted to Chen Zhong’s lower abdomen. Sure enough, my eyes slightly bulged. I couldn’t blame her for always wearing large clothes these days. She was afraid of being hit by cold, so she was just trying to cover it up.

Seeing that my expression wasn’t good, Yang Guang stood up and walked over, and said:

“My beloved concubine came just in time. Gu was about to tell you that you and Zhuo’er are sisters. After you ascend the throne, I’ll make you my concubine. What do you think?”

“Good, very good!” My face was expressionless, but my heart was sinking little by little, gradually sinking into the endless cliff of sadness and bitterness.

Chen stood up, facing away from Yang Guang, and gently caressed his lower abdomen. He stared at me with his eyes. A trace of provocation flashed across his eyes, and he opened his mouth to speak with a smile:

“Sister, we will serve together in the future, and our relationship will be even closer than before.” Sister, we will serve together in the future, and our relationship will be even closer than in the past.

It was as if waves were rolling in my chest as I stared fixedly at Chen Zhong. After living together for several years, it was only today that I realized that her seemingly calm eyes were hiding too many things I couldn’t understand. She was so scheming that I could only look at her in another light.

His tightly clenched hands under his wide sleeves squeezed out a trace of a pale smile. His eyes swept across her lower abdomen and he said:

“I don’t dare to hold you up, but I should congratulate my sister. Since we are like sisters, why didn’t my sister tell me about this happy occasion?” When I said the word “little sister”, I felt as if ten thousand ants had drilled into my heart. I felt so disgusted that I wanted to vomit, but I could only forcefully swallow it down.

Chen Zhen’s face slightly stiffened. He raised his hand to protect his lower abdomen. Then, he began to speak in a chirping voice:

“I should have told my sister as soon as possible. It’s just that Prince Zhao isn’t feeling very well these days. Zhuo’er doesn’t dare to bother my sister.”

Yang Guang took a step forward and embraced Chen Zhong with one hand, and with the other he embraced me, and said with a smile: “I am so considerate that my beloved concubine should be happy. Now that Zhao’er is well, she will ascend the throne in three days.

Instinctively, I pulled away from Yang Guang’s arm and forced a smile.

“Yes, it’s just that my sister is now someone belonging to the crown prince, so I can’t continue staying in the side hall of my concubine. From today onwards, my sister will be staying at Zhuyun Garden.” Even if it were only three days, I would never want to live under the same roof with her again.

Chen Zhen did not move. Yang Guang frowned and said:

“Isn’t that too much trouble? “Now that he is pregnant, he should not be too tired. After three days, he should move to the Imperial Palace and live alone in another place.”

“Your Highness is right. Let me wait on you for a few more days, okay?” “In any case, before being conferred the title, Zhuo’er was still my sister’s servant girl.” Chen Wu said.

A servant? I sneered in my heart. I already have a body, so I called myself a little sister, but I still called myself a servant girl. It was really too ridiculous! However, he said:

“Sister, if you say it like that, then you will kill me. Right now, you are pregnant with a son of the emperor, what need do you have to talk about attending to him? “If there’s anything wrong with it, how can you expect me, as your sister, to handle it?”

“Don’t worry about it, don’t worry about it. It’s good enough for Gu Duo to send some men to the Yuanxin Pavilion. You can also tell Zhuo’er more about this woman’s pregnancy. She was complaining that her stomach wasn’t well just now, and I didn’t understand any of this.” Yang Guang said with a smile on his face.

“Your Highness is a man, how could he know about the matters of his daughter’s family? “It’s better if elder sister is more considerate. Zhuo’er will not understand it in the future, so I’ll have to trouble elder sister to guide him. Would elder sister be willing?” Chen Zhen’s beautiful face reddened slightly, and his charming eyes turned to Yang Guang. He then turned to look at me. His appearance was extremely innocent and innocent.

It’s a pity that the only one who can be tempted is Yang Guang, to me, the more innocent and innocent that smile is, the more dangerous it is.

“Alright, seeing the two of you get along so well, I have nothing to worry about anymore.” Yang Guang clapped his hands and smiled.

Since things had come to this, I couldn’t refuse anymore. I could only restrain my anger and force a smile as I said,

“In that case, I’ll have to trouble Zhuo’er.”
