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

Chapter 246: Cold-blooded and Domineering Emperor Without Heir x Delicate and Pregnant Concubine 48

Concubine Li and Chen Jinxuan looked at each other and both of them put away their hostility.

"I thought Sister Defei had always been aloof from worldly affairs and would not get involved in this fight."

Concubine Li was really curious.

After all, the former Concubine De always used poor health as an excuse to turn down many invitations to competitive occasions.

Over time, she thought that Concubine De was really like that.

I didn't expect that you really can't judge a person by his appearance.

"Then I thought Sister Li Fei would be crazy for a while, but I didn't expect her to recover so quickly."

When the word "crazy" was mentioned, Concubine Li still felt a sense of injustice in her chest.

It was clearly the Queen who harmed people, but they still lived a carefree life without any worries.

It actually made her feel worried, frightened, and guilty.

If she doesn't get rid of this anger, Zhao Minying will not be a human being anymore.

"Why on earth did you join forces with Concubine Qing? Also, are you sure that Concubine Qing will win this game?"

After all, the empress has remained in the imperial palace for many years, and the emperor has contributed a lot to this.

What's more, the Queen Mother will definitely protect her niece.

Concubine Li felt that Shen Nian’s chances of winning were not that great.

"Because I believe in her. There is only one winner in this game, and that person must be Concubine Qing Shen Nian."

Shen Nian's confident and unbridled look also infected Chen Jinxuan. Now Chen Jinxuan was mysteriously confident about Shen Nian.

No one can say anything that Shen Nian is not capable of.

Concubine Li was defeated by her blind worship and did not argue with her. She pulled her to the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests.

The white jade steps in front of the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests are very long. It has rained in the palace recently. Although the jade steps have been carefully wiped by the eunuchs and palace maids, they are still a bit slippery when people walk on them.

Shen Nian was helped by the palace servants to the stairs, where he saw a tall and slender figure standing there.

Ling Yu was wearing a dragon robe and a crown on his head. He looked handsome and majestic, and his aura of dominating the world became more and more obvious.

"I see you, Your Majesty."

Shen Nian saluted Ling Yu with the standard etiquette of a palace concubine. She bowed gracefully and her movements were elegant and dignified.

Ling Yu walked up to her, his tall figure enveloped her, and he reached out to help her up.

"No need to be so polite. I allow you to be proud of your favor."

Shen Nian was helped to stand up by him, and their clasped hands were hidden by the wide sleeves.

Shen Nian secretly pressed his hand and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness."

Ling Yu held the hand of his favorite concubine and walked towards the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests with Shen Nian.

The Empress Dowager, the Empress, and all the concubines were waiting in the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests. The Empress's face was so gloomy that it seemed as if thick ink could drip out of it.

Your Majesty is afraid that Shen Nian will slip when climbing the jade steps, so just send a eunuch to help him.

But His Majesty was unwilling to do so and actually went to help him himself.

Obviously, the only one who is qualified to walk side by side with the emperor is the queen.

Shen Nian is just a concubine. Why does she have such great favor and why can she be helped up the stairs by the emperor?

The queen's heart was filled with jealousy and dissatisfaction. She watched Ling Yu personally help Shen Nian walk up the stairs, and a strong feeling of unwillingness surged in her heart.

A hint of gloom flashed across her eyes, but she quickly regained her composure. She knew that in such an occasion, she had to maintain her demeanor as a queen.

The Queen Mother watched all this with a smile on her face. She was not surprised by Shen Nian's favor.

She knew that Shen Nian was smart and virtuous, and she believed that Shen Nian could be a good wife to Ling Yu.

The other concubines were secretly speculating in their hearts. They were envious and jealous of Shen Nian's favor. Some of them began to think about how to get Ling Yu's favor.

Ling Yu and Shen Nian walked into the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests. Ling Yu's gaze swept over everyone present, his eyes revealing an unquestionable majesty.

Shen Nian maintained a dignified posture, she knew that her behavior represented the image of the royal family.

Led by the Queen, all the concubines saluted Ling Yu.

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. Long live the Emperor."

"Flat body."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Ling Yu took the main seat, and Shen Nian also found his seat and sat down.

Perhaps because she received special care from Ling Yu, she was seated very close to Ling Yu and right next to Chen Jinxuan.

Chen Jinxuan sat down and winked at Shen Nian, who gave her a playful smile in return.

Concubine Li had not appeared in public for a long time. Her seat was far away from the main seat. The concubines around her looked at her, each one surprised and curious.

"Isn't Concubine Li crazy? Why is she here to attend the ceremony of becoming a concubine?"

The young concubines were whispering to each other, puzzled by the appearance of Concubine Li.

The Queen's gaze stayed on Concubine Li for a moment, then shifted away indifferently.

Bitches are hard to kill. She thought she was dead a long time ago, but she didn't expect that she could still appear in front of people so brazenly.

Ling Yu cleared his throat and began to announce the decree to confer the title of consort.

"I hereby announce today that Shen Nian is promoted to Consort Qing and given the title 'Qing' in recognition of her contributions to the royal family."

Shen Nian stood up and saluted Ling Yu, but he was thinking about the upcoming challenge in his heart.

At the ceremony of conferring the title of consort, a barely perceptible gloom flashed across the queen's eyes. She knew that Shen Nian's promotion was not what she wanted, but she had to remain calm and not let her emotions show.

Chen Jinxuan was observing quietly from the side. She knew that there were more stories hidden behind Shen Nian's promotion.

Concubine Li was secretly thinking about how she would expose the Queen's conspiracy at the concubine-conferring ceremony and seek justice for Concubine Shu's injustice.

The atmosphere in the entire Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests was solemn and tense, and everyone was waiting for the climax of the ceremony of conferring the title of consort.

After Ling Yu conferred the title on Shen Nian, the Queen Mother bestowed many rare treasures on Shen Nian to show her love. Only after all this was done, the palace banquet truly began.

The sounds of stringed instruments and orchestras rang out, and dancers in pink stepped lightly into the hall to dance.

The dancers had graceful figures and beautiful dance moves, like fairies descending to earth, bringing the atmosphere of the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests to a climax.

Chen Jinxuan secretly winked at Concubine Li, and Shen Nian put down the teacup in his hand with a crisp sound.

Like some kind of code.

Concubine Li immediately covered her head, as if she had seen something extremely terrifying. She half ran and half crawled to the center of the hall.

The sudden change frightened everyone. Ling Yu stood up and led Shen Nian directly behind him.

"Concubine Li, why are you so disrespectful in front of the palace?"

The Queen acted like the mistress of the harem and asked Concubine Li about the reason.

Concubine Li curled up on the ground and struggled in pain. "Your Majesty, I just saw the ghost of Concubine Shu again. Concubine Shu said that the person who killed her is in this hall."

Her voice was trembling, filled with fear and anxiety.

Ling Yu frowned, he looked around and his eyes finally fell on the queen.

"Queen, what's your explanation for this?" Ling Yu's voice carried a hint of unquestionable majesty.

The Queen's face changed. She didn't expect Concubine Li to attack at this time, but she quickly regained her composure.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Li has been feeling unwell recently. I'm afraid she is not in her right mind, which is why she said such things."

It is common knowledge in the palace that Concubine Li has gone crazy, there is nothing much to say.

The Queen immediately asked Xiao Fuzi to drag Concubine Li away.

However, Concubine Li suddenly became sober, her eyes were firm, and she refuted clearly:

"Your Majesty, I am now very sober. Sister Shufei said that the one who killed her was the high and mighty Empress."

As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the entire Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests suddenly became tense. Everyone's eyes were focused on the Queen and Concubine Li, waiting for the Queen's response.

"Concubine Li, do you know how serious a crime it is to slander the queen of a country?"

"I am not afraid. I just want justice for Sister Shufei."

Concubine Li was not afraid of the Queen's threats at all.

Seeing that the time was almost right, Chen Jinxuan walked to the hall and knelt down.

"Your Majesty, I was afraid of the Queen's authority and dared not speak the truth.

Now, seeing that Li Fei's sister is not afraid of power and is only willing to seek justice for Shu Fei, I feel deeply ashamed.

I am willing to testify that the Empress has wrongly murdered Consort Shu, and I beg Your Majesty to severely punish the Empress."

Chen Jinxuan kowtowed.
