Chapter 1570 The Concubine is Jealous

After a while, the emperor's headache eased. He frowned slightly and said calmly, "You don't need to worry about Princess Shuya's marriage. I have already found a suitable candidate for her. People should not be too greedy and want the best of everything. The general and Princess Fuxia have known each other since childhood. They are childhood sweethearts and have a deep relationship. They are both rare talents. This marriage was also obtained by the general with his illustrious military exploits."

When the imperial concubine heard this, her heart tightened, but she still asked unwillingly: "Who does the emperor plan to marry our Shuya to?"

When the emperor heard this, a warning flashed in his eyes. He stared at the imperial concubine and said coldly, "I am the emperor, Shuya is my daughter, and she is a princess. As a princess, she should not only enjoy the royal family's supplies, but also shoulder the responsibilities. Even the marriage of Anle Junjun, as my granddaughter, was arranged by me personally. Imperial concubine, what do you think of my arranging a marriage for Princess Shuya?"

The imperial concubine was frightened by the emperor's words. She knelt down and saluted, saying with great fear and trepidation: "I dare not! It's just that I am too concerned. Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"

The emperor looked at the imperial concubine's frightened expression, and his expression eased a little. He waved his hand to let her get up, and then said earnestly: "I know you love Shuya, but there are some things that you and I cannot worry about. Shuya's marriage is related to the stability of the court, and I must consider it carefully. I hope you can understand my difficulties."

The imperial concubine nodded, indicating that she understood the emperor's meaning.

She knew that her behavior just now was a bit extreme and might cause the emperor's dissatisfaction.

So she stood aside obediently and said no more.

The emperor sighed and continued, "Shuya's marriage is decided by me. I have chosen a suitable prince consort to ensure her happiness. You will know in a few days. You don't have to worry too much. Just take good care of Shuya."

The imperial concubine responded and then quietly withdrew, her heart filled with worry and uneasiness.

She didn't know who the emperor would marry Shuya to, and whether her happiness could really be guaranteed.

However, she also knew that she could not change the emperor's decision and could only pray silently that everything would go well.

Led by the palace maid, Ye Zifen slowly returned to the palace where she temporarily lived.

At this time, the food on the table had been removed and the entire palace seemed exceptionally quiet.

Although there were many people standing there, no one dared to make the slightest sound.

Ye Zifen blinked her eyes gently, and after looking at everyone, she said softly: "Only two people will stay to keep watch, and the rest of you can retreat!"

The palace maids responded in unison, and then, except for the two who stayed behind, everyone else walked out of the room one by one with light steps.

Ye Zifen sat quietly on the small couch, her back still as straight as a pine tree.

The palace maids who had retreated lowered their voices and whispered to each other in the room where they were resting.

Palace maid A said with envy, "I never thought that this Princess Fuxia would have such good manners! Even a princess who grew up in our palace might not have such excellent manners. From a distance, she is truly extremely noble!"

Palace maid B nodded with lingering fear and said, "Yes, when the emperor lost his temper just now, I was so scared that my heart began to tremble. But Princess Fuxia pretended that she didn't see anything. She was so calm and composed, even more so than the imperial concubine!"

Palace maid Bing retorted disapprovingly: "Of course, after all, the one who made the emperor angry was the imperial concubine, not Princess Fuxia, so she naturally has nothing to be afraid of."

Palace Maid A wiped the tea stains off the table and recalled with emotion: "Ever since I was transferred to this palace, I knew that Princess Fuxia's status was not ordinary. Look at the furnishings in that room, which one is not a priceless treasure! I heard that these were sent by the imperial concubine, and the original intention was to win over Princess Fuxia. Unfortunately, I saw that Princess Fuxia didn't even look at them, and seemed to have no interest in these things at all."

When Maid B heard this, she stopped what she was doing and said with sudden realization, "That's right. The emperor values ​​Princess Fuxia so much that he even gave her the original Rui Palace. How could she care about those things? Moreover, with the emperor's love for her, I'm sure the things he gave her as a reward would not be few."

Palace maid Bing came forward and said, "I heard that the imperial concubine wanted us to go to the general's mansion as a dowry. We must serve her well in the future, and maybe we can get some benefits. It's a pity that we didn't get to spend the night together today, otherwise we could have kept in touch with her."

This is not just one person's idea; everyone present has the same idea.

At this moment, Zhang Gaoyi had returned to the General's Mansion, and Madam Qi also returned with him.

After entering the gate of the General's Mansion, Zhang Gaoyi gathered all the servants in the mansion to a spacious place.

Then, he pointed to Madam Qi and said to everyone, "This is Madam Qi. From now on, her words will be as important as mine. In the next few days, Madam Qi will stay in the General's Mansion and personally handle all matters here to welcome the upcoming Princess Fuxia. Three days later, we will officially marry Princess Fuxia into the mansion. By then, I hope everyone can work together to complete this important task."

Everyone turned their eyes to Aunt Qi, their hearts full of curiosity.

Nanny Qi was dressed in simple servant's attire, but for some reason, she was able to receive such special treatment from the master.

Madam Qi bowed slightly, with a smile on her face, and replied softly, "General, you are so polite."

Afterwards, Zhang Gaoyi also clasped his fists in return to show his respect.

Then, Madam Qi turned around and said to the servants of the General's Mansion standing at the bottom of the stairs: "Thanks to the general and the princess's trust, I will be responsible for managing the General's Mansion and handling matters related to marrying Princess Fuxia. We will be very busy in the coming days, so no one will get a moment's rest. However, as long as we get through these few days smoothly, everyone will get a corresponding reward."

Her voice was clearly heard throughout the courtyard, and every word she said struck everyone's heartstrings like a heavy hammer.

Upon hearing the news, the servants showed complicated expressions on their faces.

Some were surprised, some were excited, but more of them were a nervous anticipation.

After all, for these servants, being able to participate in the preparation of such a grand wedding not only means a great responsibility, but also an honor.

The rewards became the motivation for them to work hard.
