Quick Wear: The Female Supporting Character's Counterattack
Chapter 14 Pregnant
The news that Xianxian was named a beauty soon spread throughout the palace. When Concubine Zhen found out, she was so angry that she couldn't eat.
You know, she was still thinking about giving birth to a prince, but she never expected Concubine Yuan to pop up.
Concubine Zhen glanced at Princess Fuhua in the cradle, and then murmured unwillingly.
"The eldest prince must come out of my belly, and no one can stop me!"
There was ambition and determination in her eyes.
Liu Zhen came to Lingyue Palace at night. Xianxian changed out of her maid's clothes and Aunt Bai put on a pink long dress for her, making her look particularly cute.
There was a blush on her face, making her look like a beautiful flower.
"His Majesty."
Liu Zhen stepped forward and took up her little hand. Xianxian did not struggle, but just trembled slightly twice, and her beautiful collarbone was obviously attractive.
"Are you afraid of it?"
Seeing the shyness on Xianxian's face which was not in line with her usual expression, Liu Zhen felt his chest getting hot.
Xianxian plucked up the courage to look Liu Zhen in the eye, then shook her head gently, and she took the initiative to fall into Liu Zhen's arms.
"Your Majesty, I am not afraid. Since the first day I met Your Majesty, I have already fallen in love with Your Majesty. Now I cannot leave Your Majesty anymore. As long as I can be with Your Majesty, I am not afraid of anything."
At this moment, Xianxian's words were sincere, as if she was going to take out her heart and put it in front of Liu Zhen to prove herself in the next second.
Xianxian doesn't love Liu Zhen, but Sang Xianxian loves Liu Zhen, and this sincere love belongs to Sang Xianxian.
Liu Zhen hugged Xianxian tightly, "I understand. I will protect you in the future and won't let others bully you."
The emperor's words should be believed, but not completely disbelieved. Xianxian understood this very well, but she acted very moved.
Liu Zhen was very happy that night. When Xianxian woke up the next day, Liu Zhen was gone.
He had already gone to court, but before he left he instructed his wife to take good care of Xianxian and not to disturb her. If she overslept, there was no need to pay respects to the Queen.
Xianxian just felt sore all over, but she still let Aunt Bai clean up for her.
"Before His Majesty left, he told me not to go and pay my respects to the Queen. I'd better take a day off."
Looking at the marks on Xianxian's body, Aunt Bai felt a little distressed. She was really worried that Liu Zhen would hurt Xianxian by using too much force.
However, Xianxian rubbed her temple and said lazily, "Aunt, this is my first day as a beauty. I still have to do my surface work well, just to avoid giving people a chance to talk about me."
"What's more, the emperor's favor is like flowing water. I didn't know the etiquette today and didn't go to pay my respects to the queen. The queen won't show any emotion on her face. But in the long run, this will eventually become a topic of criticism against me."
"On the first day after receiving the Queen's favor, it is a rule left by our ancestors to pay respects to the Queen. My foundation is not stable now, so I need to be more careful."
Only then did Aunt Bai realize that it was the love and consideration Liu Zhen showed for Xianxian that made Aunt Bai feel that Xianxian could disregard etiquette.
"This servant is really confused, but the beauty sees things clearly."
Just like that, Xianxian arrived at the Queen's palace to pay her respects on time. The moment she stepped into the palace, all the women fell silent and just looked at Xianxian in a daze.
The woman had a slender figure, and wore a pink and white long skirt, a jade tassel tied around her waist, and two white jade bracelets on her wrists, which made her skin look white and glowing.
All the women in the palace were not as tall as one of her fingers, which made the concubines feel a sense of crisis.
Xianxian completely ignored the gazes of others and just walked forward and saluted with a smile.
"I pay my respects to Her Majesty the Queen and wish Her Majesty eternal happiness and peace."
Her voice was soft and clear. Even though Gao Liumin didn't like her, she still put on a show of being polite.
"Miss Yuan, please get up. Yesterday was your first time sleeping with me. You must have worked hard. Please sit down."
Xianxian likes to act, but that doesn’t mean she is really afraid of Gao Liumin. She just stood up and found her seat to sit down, then she adjusted the Dongzhu earring on her earlobe with her hand.
Dongzhu has always been the symbol of the queen, but Liu Zhen gave Xianxian a pair of Dongzhu earrings, which were a rare pink color.
"Serving Your Majesty is my duty, and it is not hard."
When Gao Liumin saw Xianxian's earrings, her smile froze slightly, but she quickly reacted and looked normal again.
Gao Liumin and Xianxian had just had an unpleasant argument yesterday, but today Gao Liumin still had to greet her with a false smile.
However, Xianxian was too lazy to argue with her. She just put away her smile and lowered her eyes lightly.
Shufei couldn't stand Xianxian's pride, so she started to make fun of her background as a palace maid. Xianxian then looked up at Zhenpin.
"Your Highness Shufei has been in the palace for so long, don't you know that Your Highness Zhenpin was also a maid? You have offended many people with this."
These words made Zhenpin's face change suddenly, but she said nothing, just turned her head and looked away.
After just a few words, Concubine Shu dared not say anything more. You have to know that Concubine Zhen has Princess Fuhua, who is the only child in the palace.
Liu Zhen felt so much pain that it felt like her eyeballs were being stabbed. They dared to stab Xianxian, but they didn't dare to stab Zhenpin.
Xianxian is afraid of Gao Liumin because she is the queen. As for other people, Xianxian doesn't take them seriously at all.
When it is time to fight back, fight back without mercy.
Seeing that Xianxian was not falling behind, Gao Liumin no longer had the idea of watching the show.
"The time is almost up. Go ask the Queen Mother if she will accept an audience today."
The Queen Mother didn't like noise, so sometimes she refused to let concubines pay their respects so as not to disturb her mood. Gao Liumin would send a eunuch to ask in advance.
As expected, the empress dowager also refused the concubines' greetings this time. Gao Liumin nodded and asked the eunuch to leave.
"The Queen Mother needs to worship Buddha today, so please go away, sisters."
"In that case, I will take my leave first."
Xianxian raised her hand and asked Aunt Bai to help her up. Then she bowed to Gao Liumin, glanced at the women around her, and left in a swagger.
"How could she be so rude?"
Concubine Shu said in disbelief.
You should know that apart from Concubine Zhen who gave birth to Princess Fuhua, Concubine Shu was the most respected among the concubines.
Even Concubine Shu didn't dare to be so rude. The Queen just said that they could go, and the next second Xianxian left boldly.
According to the rules for the concubines to leave, they should have bowed and left in order of their rank, but Concubine Yuan actually walked in front of Concubine Shu.
Gao Liumin didn't say anything, but Concubine Zhen looked at Concubine Shu and said softly, "After all, Lady Yuan has just been favored, so it's normal for her to be a little arrogant."
"What Zhenpin said is right, Shufei, don't take it to heart."
She was clearly speaking in support of Concubine Yuan, but it made Concubine Shu even angrier.
By the time Concubine Shu walked out of the palace, her chest was heaving with anger.
"She is just a little beauty, yet she dares to be so rude to me. The Queen is really unruly and even speaks for that beauty Yuan."
Shufei's maid comforted her gently, and only then was she able to control her temper.
At this time, Xianxian had already returned to Lingyue Palace, and Aunt Bai helped her sit down.
"My beauty, you have offended Concubine Shu badly just now."
Xianxian shook her head gently, "I'll offend them if I do. Anyway, as long as I gain favor and climb up, I will offend everyone in the palace."
"What the beauty said is very true. With three thousand favors, there are also three thousand resentments. A man is innocent but guilty of possessing a treasure."
As soon as Liu Zhen finished his court session, he went to Lingyue Palace. The two of them stayed together tightly together and naturally stayed overnight.
In the following days, Liu Zhen completely ignored the other women in the palace and only stayed in Xianxian's palace.
Now Zhenpin was panicked. After paying her respects, she stayed to find Gao Liumin.
"Empress, that Concubine Yuan is so abominable. She actually took possession of Your Majesty!"
Before Princess Fuhua was born, the most favored woman was Concubine Zhen, who was the apple of Liu Zhen's eye.
But since she gave birth to Princess Fuhua, Liu Zhen became busy and rarely entered the harem.
Gao Liumin looked at Concubine Zhen and whispered, "You have Princess Fuhua as your child, why are you so flustered?"
How can you not panic?
Concubine Zhen also wanted to give birth to Liu Zhen's eldest son before anyone else.
Seeing that Xianxian was monopolizing Liu Zhen, she naturally became anxious.
"Has your majesty visited the princess this month?"
In response to Gao Liumin's question, Concubine Zhen nodded with a grim expression.
Liu Zhen visited the princess every three days, but he never stayed overnight in Zhenpin's palace. He would leave after visiting the child.
Gao Liumin sighed and said, "You have so many opportunities, but you can't seize them yourself. It's useless for you to find me."
Even though she and Liu Zhen have been married for so long, the two of them are still just chatting under the quilt.
However, Gao Liumin was proud of her position as the main wife and disdained any behavior of vying for favor. She knew very well what she wanted. As long as she was the queen, no one in the palace would surpass her.
Concubine Zhen looked at Gao Liumin unwillingly, but finally left with gritted teeth.
Within a month, Xianxian was promoted to Jieyu and kept the title Yuan.
Now Xianxian became even more arrogant. She became more perfunctory when paying her respects to Gao Liumin. If anyone dared to make sarcastic remarks, she would fight back without hesitation.
Whether it was Concubine Shu or Concubine Zhen, they could not get any benefit from Xianxian at all.
As the days passed, Xianxian knew the plot well and knew clearly that Zhenpin was not ordinary.
How could Concubine Zhen be a real little white rabbit if she was able to be promoted to Imperial Concubine in the plot?
As soon as Xianxian woke up from her nap that day, Aunt Bai came to her side.
"Jieyu, something dirty was found in the palace."
"what?"
"A secret medicine. I asked a familiar imperial physician to check it out. It is a sinister and harmful substance. If a woman comes into contact with it for a long time, it will affect her lifespan and her offspring."
Xianxian paused and asked, "Where did you find this dirty thing?"
"The inner chamber of the Concubine."
Xianxian, who was dressing up, narrowed her eyes, then looked at Xiaoluzi beside her and gave instructions.
"Keep a close eye on the palace and find the person who sent the dirty stuff to me."
Originally, there was no dirt in Lingyue Palace. When Xianxian first moved in, she checked everything inside and out.
But before going to bed yesterday, Xianxian always felt a faint fragrance. She didn't like incense, so she naturally noticed that the smell was wrong.
As expected, the fragrance is a dirty thing that affects people's lifespan and offspring. Isn't it because of this that the original body in the plot gave birth to three daughters who died young and died early?
Letting Xiao Luzi investigate is to let Manager Li know about this matter. There is no need for Xianxian to say more in front of Liu Zhen herself, as someone will help speak for her.
In less than half an hour, Liu Zhen came without changing out of his court robes, and Xianxian fell into his arms, wiping her tears.
She said delicately, "Your Majesty, someone wants to harm me."
Looking at the pitiful appearance of Xianxian with tears in her eyes, Liu Zhen frowned and said coldly, "Investigate."
"Yes."
Manager Li took his men to search Lingyue Palace thoroughly, and soon a bag of dirty things was found.
Aunt Bai only found the dirty things and didn't take them all out. Only when Liu Zhen's own people found and took them out, would they be the real dirty things.
