Quick Wear: After the charming host got pregnant, the boss spoiled her like crazy

Chapter 242: Cold-blooded and Domineering Emperor Without Heir x Delicate and Pregnant Concubine 34

The Queen Mother An's intimacy with Shen Nian made the Queen's jealousy even deeper.

She was obviously the empress dowager's niece, but the empress dowager didn't treat her half as affectionately as she treated Shen Nian.

"Mother, my sister Qingpin has made great contributions in raising an heir. Isn't the position of a concubine too low?"

When the queen spoke, the concubines who belonged to the queen's party naturally responded positively to her call.

"Yes, Queen Mother, it's time for Concubine Qing to advance in status."

The first person to chime in was Concubine Chang, who had already been very close to the Queen when she was still in the boudoir.

"Your Highness, this suggestion is a good one. It is a happy event that Concubine Qing is pregnant, and it is even happier if she is promoted to a higher position. The palace hasn't been lively for a long time.

It’s time to add some joyous events to liven things up.”

It was rare that Chen Jinxuan did not go against the Queen, but instead followed her wishes.

The queen closed her eyes in annoyance and did not respond to Chen Jinxuan.

The more the Queen Mother listened, the more she thought it was feasible, "De Fei is right.

"Wang Ma, please tell His Majesty now that I want to be promoted to the position of Concubine Qing, and ask His Majesty to issue an imperial decree."

Nanny Wang took the order and immediately went to the imperial study to convey the Queen Mother's intention to His Majesty.

After hearing this, Ling Yu pondered for a moment and said, "Since the Queen Mother has this intention, I will obey it. Pass on my decree to promote Concubine Qing to concubine, give her the title 'Qing', and give her the red jade coral tree as a reward."

Nanny Wang received the order and returned to the Empress Dowager's palace to convey His Majesty's will.

When the Queen Mother heard this, she smiled with satisfaction and said, "Qing Fei, this name is good. It not only shows her stunning beauty, but also reflects the royal nobility."

Concubine Qing, with just a smile, is the most beautiful thing in the world.

This was the original intention of Ling Yu giving Shen Nianqing this name.

The concubines congratulated Shen Nian one after another, and Shen Nian politely thanked them one by one.

Of course, the Queen asked for the position of concubine for Shen Nian not to let her enjoy unlimited glory.

As the saying goes, if you want to kill someone, you must first make him crazy. This is the queen's real intention.

She wanted to personally kick Shen Nian off the platform during her coronation ceremony and ruin her reputation.

So that Shen Nian and other people in the palace can see clearly what it means to see the Queen's majesty and not allow anyone to provoke her.

When Shen Nian heard the decree conveyed by Nanny Wang, he felt both grateful and surprised.

She knew that this was the trust and appreciation of Empress Dowager An and the Emperor, and she had to work harder to live up to this favor.

"Thank you, Queen Dowager, and thank you, Your Majesty." Shen Nian knelt down and kowtowed deeply.

Queen Mother An looked at Shen Nian with loving eyes, and said:

"Shen Nian, you are a good kid. I believe you are capable of this position."

Shen Nian raised her head, with a determined light in her eyes, and said:

"Empress Dowager, Shen Nian will definitely live up to your expectations and do his best to serve the royal family loyally."

Queen Mother An nodded, and then said to Nanny Wang:

"Madame Wang, go and make arrangements so that Shen Nian's imperial concubine ceremony will be held in a grand manner."

Nanny Wang took the order and went to make arrangements immediately.

Shen Nian stood up, her heart full of gratitude and determination. She knew that from now on, she would shoulder more responsibilities, and she had to be more cautious and work harder.

The queen watched all this from the side. Although she was dissatisfied, she had no choice but to endure it.

She knew that Shen Nian's consecration ceremony would be the key moment of her plan. She wanted to make Shen Nian look bad in front of everyone to consolidate her position.

…………

After leaving Yongning Palace, Shen Nian, accompanied by Chen Jinxuan, went to the Imperial Garden to get some fresh air.

"What do you think about the Queen's move, Sister Qingfei?"

Chen Jinxuan kicked the pebbles on the road without any dignity, and turned her head to ask Shen Nian what he thought.

"It's impossible for the Queen to be so kind to me. The only explanation that makes sense is that the Queen is planning to attack me during the ceremony of conferring the title of Consort."

Shen Nian was not worried about what the Queen would do. He would fight back against the enemy with his own army and block the water with his own earth.

Whatever tricks the queen came up with, she would just follow them.

"That's right, but it will be very interesting then."

There was some excitement in Chen Jinxuan's tone, she could hardly wait to see the Queen being humiliated.

Shen Nian smiled slightly. She knew Chen Jinxuan's character. Although she had decided to leave the palace, her temperament was still straightforward. She always had a relaxed attitude as a bystander towards the intrigues in the palace.

"Sister Jinxuan, you are always so optimistic. However, I also believe that no matter what the queen plans, I can handle it."

Chen Jinxuan stopped, turned around, looked at Shen Nian seriously, and said:

"Sister Qingfei, you are the smartest and strongest woman I have ever met. I believe in you, and you will definitely be able to get through this difficult time."

Shen Nian looked at Chen Jinxuan with gratitude. She knew that although Chen Jinxuan was about to leave, the friendship between them was sincere.

"Thank you, Sister Jinxuan. I will be careful, and you should take care of yourself too."

The two continued to stroll in the imperial garden, enjoying this rare tranquility.

Although Shen Nian was a little worried, she also understood that no matter what the road ahead was like, she would face it bravely.

Chen Jinxuan looked at Shen Nian with some reluctance in her heart. She knew that Shen Nian was about to face a difficult struggle, but she also believed that Shen Nian had enough wisdom and courage to deal with it.

"Sister Qingfei, no matter where you go, I will cheer for you."

Shen Nian nodded. She knew that no matter what the future held, she would always remember this friendship, this rare warmth in the palace.

When they reached the lake, seeing the willows swaying in the wind, Shen Nian asked Chen Jinxuan as if he remembered something.

"Sister Jinxuan, how much do you know about Concubine Shu's fake pregnancy?"

Chen Jinxuan paused, "Why are you asking this? Are you suspicious of something?"

“I wouldn’t say I’m suspicious, but the more I knock on it, the weirder it seems.

First of all, Concubine Shu's false pregnancy was planned by someone. The person behind the scene might have bribed the imperial physician who diagnosed Concubine Shu's pulse, making Concubine Shu mistakenly believe that she was pregnant.

Secondly, the person behind the scenes not only wanted to get rid of Concubine Shu, but also used Concubine Shu to drive Concubine Li crazy as well.

In this harem, I can't think of anyone else who has the ability to bribe the imperial physician without being noticed by anyone, and who knows the concubines so well, except her."

"You mean, you suspect the person behind this is the queen?"

Chen Jinxuan took a big step back and hit her back against the willow tree. She felt a cold sweat breaking out on her back.

She only knew that the queen was always cruel, but she never expected her to be so cruel.

Shen Nian was much calmer than her. She stood in front of Chen Jinxuan and said, "Sister Jinxuan, we have to dethrone the queen in the upcoming ceremony."

"But behind Concubine Qing's sister, the Queen, there may be the Emperor turning a blind eye and condoning her."

The queen repeatedly harmed people, but the emperor turned a blind eye and did not really punish her except for warnings.

"I know, but this time I want to make a bet with you, Sister Jinxuan."

Shen Nian also leaned against a willow tree, skipping stones he had just picked up on the water.

"What are you gambling?"

The wind blew the edge of Shen Nian's skirt, and her black hair fluttered in the wind. On the woman's beautiful face, there was a bright and confident smile.

"I'll bet that the emperor will stand on my side this time."

A stone was thrown from her hand, creating six amazing water circles on the lake.

The little white fox whistled to congratulate her. Chen Jinxuan stood there in a daze. For a moment, the amazement in her heart was so great that she could not even describe it in words.

She is so crazy. She is worthy of being the woman that Chen Jinxuan fell in love with at first sight.

"So what can I do for you?"

Chen Jinxuan had promised her, and she would feel guilty if she didn't do something.

Shen Nian patted her shoulder and said, "Sister Jinxuan, please insist that the death of Concubine Shu was caused by the Queen. For the sake of our sisterhood, you should seek justice for the unjustly killed Concubine Shu."

"that's it?"

“Yes, that’s all.

Okay, Sister Jinxuan, I saw Commander Cheng. I think he has something to say to you, so I won’t bother you for now.”

After saying that, she waved her hand and left gracefully.

"Hey, you don't seem to be heading towards Zhaohua Palace. Where are you going?"

Without even turning her head, she said, "Go find a capable assistant for you, Sister Jinxuan."

Chen Jinxuan stood there in a daze, thinking over and over again, but still had no idea who the right-hand man she was talking about might be.

Shen Nian's steps were brisk. She knew that her plan had been arranged and now she just had to wait for the opportunity to come.

She walked through the imperial garden and headed towards Zhaohua Palace, but in her heart she was thinking about how to find a capable assistant for Chen Jinxuan.

Shen Nian knew that although Chen Jinxuan was about to leave the palace, she still had deep feelings for the palace. She hoped that Chen Jinxuan could have someone she could trust to help her fulfill her last wish.

Shen Nian already had a candidate in mind. She knew that person not only hated the Queen to the core, but also had a strong family background and could help Chen Jinxuan complete her plan.

She quickened her pace, her heart full of anticipation. She knew that as long as everything went according to plan, she would be able to protect herself and help Chen Jinxuan realize her wish.

Shen Nian's figure gradually disappeared into the depths of the imperial garden, leaving only Chen Jinxuan standing there in deep thought. She didn't know what Shen Nian's plan was, but she believed that Shen Nian would succeed.

In this struggle in the palace, Shen Nian is already prepared. She will use her wisdom and courage to face everything that is coming.
