The Demon Lord Forced to Marry the Female Leader

Chapter 9: Concubine Qiu's Scheming to Take the Top

The harem has been very lively these days. Concubine Xi Hui has become more and more arrogant since she gave birth to a prince. The harem is her world. However, the teaching nanny beside her finally used her to get to the top, and she did it when Concubine Xi Hui was at her most vulnerable. She stepped on Concubine Xi Hui's face. Concubine Xi Hui hated her privately.

The eunuch said that when the emperor went to visit Concubine Xi Hui and her child, he stayed in Concubine Xi Hui's Xi Yu Palace. However, Concubine Xi Hui was weak after giving birth and had not been able to sleep with the emperor for a year. So when Concubine Xi Hui had dinner with the emperor that night, Concubine Qiu, who was still a servant, took the opportunity to dress up brightly and beautifully. She inserted a few beautiful begonias in her hair bun and was charming in her every move. Without Concubine Xi Hui's permission, she went forward to pour tea and serve food to the emperor. The powder she applied had the effect of bewitching the emperor. The emperor was in a trance and felt that this woman was really a beauty in the world. Then he asked Concubine Xi Hui who she was, and then he made her a concubine and gave her the Qiutang Palace. In order not to spoil the emperor's fun, Concubine Xi Hui had to bite her teeth and swallow her grievances. She smiled and said that she was originally a beauty found for the emperor, and today the emperor happened to see her. It was really a perfect match!

Later it was heard that Concubine Qiu was swinging on the swing in the back garden, and the emperor even pushed the swing for her himself. The two of them wrote poems to each other on a daily basis and their love was very harmonious.

Concubine Qiu was favored, and even more popular than Concubine Xi Hui! From then on, Concubine Xi Hui became a laughing stock. The palace maids and eunuchs talked about it secretly. When Concubine Xi Hui heard about it, she caught two young palace maids and beat them to death on the charge of gossips. She then threw them into a mass grave outside the city. Only then did the matter stop.

One day, when Concubine Xi Hui was drinking tea in the courtyard, she heard the news collected by the eunuch and smashed several sets of tea sets in anger. No matter whether they were given by the emperor or tributed from foreign countries, as long as they hit Concubine Xi Hui's anger, they were all broken into pieces. Concubine Xi Hui would beat and scold the servants to vent her anger. The palace maids in her palace were replaced batch after batch, and now they were all ugly and old. She personally selected the palace maids, and all the young and beautiful palace maids were sent out by her! To prevent future troubles!

After hearing this, Concubine Qiu sneered a few times and said:

"She is such a good-for-nothing. She doesn't even have the magnanimity to do this. She throws things around after just a few words. No wonder the emperor doesn't like her. If I give birth to a little prince in the future, she will be so angry that she will hang herself!"

After that, she gently stroked her belly. She had taken a lot of medicine to regulate her body recently. She must give birth to a prince for the emperor! By then, her position will be more stable. Her eyes were full of ruthlessness and ambition. She glanced at the little eunuch kneeling on the ground and said to him threateningly:

"Just tell her what she said. If you dare to get even one word wrong, I will smash your mouth, break your legs and throw you out of the palace to become a beggar! I want to see what else she can throw this time!"

The young eunuch tumbled and crawled back. It turned out that it was Concubine Qiu who took the initiative to spread these words to Concubine Xi Hui, which made Concubine Xi Hui furious like a mad dog, biting whoever she saw. Everyone avoided her, including the emperor. After the young eunuch spread these words, he was also randomly dealt with by Concubine Xi Hui, and his life was lost in vain in the struggle between the two concubines.

Later, Qiutang Palace summoned people from the Imperial Hospital to take Concubine Qiu's pulse, and news came out that she was indeed pregnant and liked to eat sour food. It was said that it was a son.

Concubine Xi Hui knew what was going on when she heard the imperial physician's announcement. She was so angry that her nose was almost crooked. She smashed everything in the room and threatened fiercely:

"Every one of them is a hassle. The previous one hasn't been killed yet, and now this bitch is pregnant. They all want to get a piece of my son's empire, but they're dreaming! Go to hell! Go to hell!"

From then on, the two of them were at loggerheads with each other, determined to compete with each other on everything.

Chu Wan Ning sighed after hearing this. She had long seen that Concubine Qiu had bad intentions. She didn't know if she would bear a grudge when she expelled her. Concubine Xi Hui was also stupid. If she kept such a person around, she would be cheated. Now, there was another thorn in the harem. Concubine Xi Hui was mad at her every day. She was of humble origin and had limited self-cultivation. She smashed things in the palace every day, beat and scolded servants. The palace was full of smoke and gunpowder. Every time she saw the emperor, she would cry and complain. The emperor now had a headache when he saw her, so he avoided her. He turned around and went to Concubine Qiu's palace. Concubine Qiu was the best at relieving his worries, and being with her was the most relaxing.

Without the emperor's favor, Concubine Xi Hui became even crazier, and even tried to murder Chu Wan Ning and Crown Prince Chu Wan Jun. Fortunately, Chu Wan Ning was thoughtful and did not eat out randomly. She also set up a small kitchen in their own courtyard, and asked people she trusted to cook whatever they wanted to eat.

She heard from the eunuch Jinbao in her palace that the medicine that Concubine Xi Hui gave Concubine Qiu contained some ingredients that were bad for the fetus, in an attempt to make Concubine Qiu have a miscarriage without anyone knowing. However, Concubine Qiu was very cautious and refused to eat anything Concubine Xi Hui gave her, so she failed.

Chu Wan Ning listened to Jin Bao's stories every day, just like listening to a story book. Every time after school, she and Xiao Yu would eat melon seeds while listening. After listening, she would have dinner with Xiao Yu. The crown prince Chu Wan Jun would always appear at Chu Wan Ning's door during dinner. He knew that Chu Wan Ning and Xiao Yu always secretly prepared delicious food.

Princess Pingyu and her partner had a brilliant idea and asked the small kitchen to cook delicious food that was not available in this place. Chu Wanjun liked Princess Pingyu's storytelling and also loved to join in the fun with her, and they grew up in this noisy and noisy way.

Sometimes Chu Wan Ning was a little helpless, and just laughed at Xiao Yu, "Just obey my brother, you will be the queen in the future!" After hearing this, Xiao Yu rushed over to cover her mouth, and said while covering it, I only regard him as my brother, don't talk nonsense, what if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince misunderstood! Chu Wan Ning glanced at Chu Wanjun, and squinted her eyes to signal Xiao Yu, motioning her to look over there. When Xiao Yu turned around, she saw that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had red eyes, and tears as big as beans were about to roll out. He looked very sad. Xiao Yu immediately softened her heart and went over to wipe the tears of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, while wiping, she said: "Ah, Your Royal Highness, don't be sad, it's all Xiao Yu's fault. Xiao Yu speaks without restraint. Whoever can be favored by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a blessing from the previous life. It's just that Your Highness is still young, and it's not the time to consider such things. Maybe you will meet someone you like in the future..."

"Are you done?" Prince Chu Wanjun stared at Xiaoyu and said.

Xiaoyu looked confused and nodded.

"You are the one I love. I don't want anyone else but you. I want you to be my queen." His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said firmly.

Xiaoyu blushed, "But, but, I only treat you as my little brother..."

"I'm His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, there's nothing in the world that I can't get. We are almost the same age, why do you treat me as your younger brother? I like you, so you can be my Crown Princess." Chu Wanjun said angrily, using his status to put pressure on her.

"..." Xiaoyu was suddenly speechless. How could she tell him that she had traveled through time and space? She was in her twenties. Would she be considered crazy?

Chu Wan Ning noticed that the atmosphere was not right, so she quickly asked them to sit down and eat hotpot. Chu Wanjun was so angry that she left without eating, leaving Chu Wan Ning and Xiao Yu staring at each other. "You should also persuade your brother. Don't you know my situation? What will happen to him if we go back one day?" Xiao Yu said helplessly.

Chu Wan Ning was already laughing so hard that she couldn't straighten her back. Seeing Xiao Yu's embarrassed look, she found it more and more amusing. "Why don't you stay and be his wife!" He teased her, but she couldn't laugh anymore the next second. Xiao Yu said, "Don't tease me. Can't you see that your childhood sweetheart, the guard Fu Qian, likes you?"

"Ah? Really? I just think of him as a kid's brother, a big kid adopted from outside..." Before she finished speaking, she saw Xiaoyu rolling her eyes at her. She stopped laughing. It turned out that they were similar. What if she went back one day, what would happen to Fu Qian? It would be better for him to find someone from the same world to marry!

……

In this way, a long time passed, and Concubine Qiu gave birth to a little princess for the emperor. Although the emperor had no complaints and loved the little princess very much, Concubine Qiu herself was very upset. She did not care about the little princess and wanted to have another prince. However, there was no movement in her belly in the past few years.

After Concubine Xi Hui found out that she was giving birth to a princess, she laughed for three days and three nights. Even in the middle of the night, one could hear Concubine Xi Hui laughing at Concubine Qiu. The sound was so loud that it seemed to penetrate the thick palace walls and reach Concubine Qiu's ears.

Those in the harem who were vassal of Concubine Qiu quickly turned against her, and all the power in the harem was returned to Concubine Xi Hui's hands.
