Reborn to marry the emperor, I just want to confuse the emperor and seize the throne

The noise from the palace maid outside was so loud that it couldn't be stopped. It was so sudden that even Nanny Wang didn't dare to kick the maid out, because her young mistress was the prince's favorite.

Jiang Fenghua pushed Xie Shang and thought about what Nanny Wang said during the day. She also knew which palace the palace maid outside was sent from.

"Is Concubine Zhu Liangdi seriously ill? Your Highness, why don't you go and see her?" Jiang Fenghua said.

The next moment, Xie Shang said in a deep voice, "Tell her to stop shouting. I'll be there later."

"Yes." A respectful voice came from outside.

Xie Shang got up and put on his clothes, but Jiang Fenghua just lay on the bed and didn't get up to serve him, staring at his face with her beautiful eyes.

Xie Shang took the initiative to explain, "I'll be back soon, Ruan Ruan goes to sleep first. Zhu Liang Di has been in poor health since her miscarriage and has frequent abdominal pains. I should go and take care of her."

"I will ask the imperial physician to take a close look at her tomorrow. I hope she doesn't develop any chronic illness, which will make it difficult to treat in the future," she said with concern.

"Okay." Xie Shang said.

Just as Xie Shang left, Nanny Wang slipped in. She saw Jiang Fenghua's face was flushed and her clothes were half open, and she understood immediately.

Nanny Wang said, "The Crown Princess didn't know how to keep her and let her succeed. I am so angry."

Jiang Fenghua's eyes were slightly cold, "Why are you angry? His Highness has already said that she seems to be seriously ill, so of course we have to comfort her."

"It would be better if she really died of illness, but it's a pity that she was pretending." said Nanny Wang.

"Forget it, Madam, you should go to bed early! It's so late, we can talk about it tomorrow." Xie Shang spoils the Zhu family, but she will not spoil Zhu Zhenzhen. Let's wait and see!

As expected, Xie Shang did not come back that night. Perhaps because Lady Zhu was seriously ill, he stayed in Yuling Palace to accompany her to recuperate.

Jiang Fenghua slept enough yesterday and got up early today.

Early in the morning, she went to Kunning Palace to pay her respects to the Queen.

When the Queen heard that Jiang Fenghua was waiting outside the palace, she also got up and dressed. In fact, Queen Cheng would go to the Qianqing Palace early every morning to have breakfast with the Emperor.

Seeing Empress Cheng, Jiang Fenghua bowed respectfully and said, "Your daughter-in-law pays respects to your mother."

"No need to be polite! Sit down." Queen Cheng said. Jiang Fenghua is now a favorite of the emperor. The emperor praises her, so even if Queen Cheng wants to act like a mother-in-law, she has to consider Jiang Fenghua's current status and position first.

"Thank you, mother." Jiang Fenghua sat down slowly and said, "My daughter-in-law brought you some folk cakes. Please try them and see if you like them."

Nanny Wang brought the food box and presented it personally.

Emperor Cheng took a bite and praised, "It is indeed soft, glutinous and refreshing, sweet but not greasy."

"As long as mother likes it." Jiang Fenghua greeted, and then said, "I came here for another matter. I want to ask mother for her opinion. This year, for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's birthday banquet, I want to hold it in a grand manner. What do you think, mother?"

Xie Shang had never had a grand birthday banquet since he was a child. Empress Cheng was naturally happy that her son's birthday banquet was taken seriously. "Just do as Ruan Ruan wishes! The birthday of the Crown Prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty cannot be shabby. Last year he didn't celebrate much, so it's not too much to hold a grand one this year. It's just the right time to make the palace happy. Maybe the emperor's illness will be cured."

"My daughter-in-law meant the same thing." Jiang Fenghua agreed, "It just so happens that that day is also the first birthday celebration for Xi'er and Hongyou. It's a triple celebration, so we must make it a lively one."

Speaking of the little grandson, Empress Cheng was naturally happy. "As long as the ladies give birth to heirs, the Eastern Palace will be really lively. With children, there will be hope and expectation."

"Yes, I have asked Nanny Wang to arrange for the ladies to sleep with me. There are still several ladies in the East Palace who have not slept with me. His Highness has recently favored some ladies." Jiang Fenghua said, "I have one more thing to do. I am also undecided. Please give me your advice, mother."

"What's the matter?" Jiang Fenghua's attitude of reporting everything made Queen Cheng feel very important, and she liked it very much.

"The Eastern Palace's Tang Liangdi and Gao Liangyuan are both pregnant at the same time. I originally thought that there was a concubine position in the Eastern Palace. Whoever of them gave birth to an heir first would be given the position of concubine. However, now that Miss Zhu is deeply loved by His Highness, I don't know whether I should give this concubine position to Miss Zhu..."

Queen Cheng said in a deep voice, "Based on the rank and the contributions you have made to the royal family, who should sit in this position, Zhu Zhenzhen or Tang Qianran?"

Jiang Fenghua said respectfully, "Zhu Liangdi and Tang Liangdi are both second-rank officials, but they entered the palace together. In terms of contribution, Tang Liangdi is naturally the one who has made the most contributions. After all, she will soon add an heir to the royal family, and she deserves the position of concubine."

Jiang Fenghua thought: The Zhu family's plan to get the position of concubine will fail. Queen Cheng will definitely not give the position of concubine to a woman who cannot bear a child. She has supported Tang Qianran for a long time, and the Tang family has also made a lot of offerings to Queen Cheng. Queen Cheng will definitely give her the position of concubine.

Let the Queen be the villain!

Sure enough, the Empress's decree appointing Tang Qianran as the Crown Prince's concubine reached Tang Liangdi's palace in the afternoon.

Tang Qianran's belly is already showing, and the position of concubine falling on her is simply a godsend.

So she gave a generous reward to the servant who delivered the imperial edict.

People are in high spirits when good things happen to them. Tang Qianran was named a concubine, so naturally she wanted to show off everywhere.

On this day, the young lady of the East Palace went to the Chenxi Palace to pay her respects again. After Concubine Tang and Concubine Song became equals, their disagreement was shown on their faces and neither of them would give in to the other.

Zhu Zhenzhen just couldn't stand the way these mean people succeeded. Relying on their favor, they didn't take the two concubines seriously. The daughter of a dignified censor actually forgot the etiquette of hierarchy in the Eastern Palace.

She just walked away with her willow waist twisted. Tang Qianran was supported by a palace maid and stood in front of her. She coughed lightly, "Zhu Liangdi."

Finally, Zhu Zhenzhen was still unwilling to give in and said, "I pay my respects to Concubine Tang."

Tang Qianran had been used as a pawn by Zhu Zhenzhen before, and she remembered it in her heart, "Miss Zhu, please don't be polite!"

She added, "I heard that Miss Zhu has been feeling unwell recently, and the imperial doctors in the palace have been running to Yuling Palace. Could it be that Miss Zhu has morning sickness and doesn't know it?"

Zhu Zhenzhen was so angry that she clenched her fingers when someone stepped on her sore spot. Hatred rose from the bottom of her heart. Looking at the lotus pond next to her, she wanted to push hard. If Tang Qianran fell into the pond while pregnant, she didn't know if she could save the baby.

She winked at her trusted maid. Tang Qianran had been on guard against her. Immediately, the trusted maid also stood in front of her and said, "What are you doing? Do you want to harm Concubine Tang? The concubine's belly is very precious. If the Empress knows that someone wants to harm the heir, you will be in trouble."

After being frightened like this, Zhu Zhenzhen's confidants dared not act recklessly and quickly stepped aside.
