Chapter 135 The Emperor's Favored Concubine is Heartbroken (31)
What surprised her the most was that her sister actually had such means and cunning.
At the beginning, she didn't want to enter the palace to help Ye Junchen rebel, so she let Shen Qingjiao be her scapegoat.
Unexpectedly, on the first day she entered the palace, my sister was named Concubine Rou by the Emperor, and now she has become a noble concubine and has overthrown the Queen!
Such favor made her regret having tricked Shen Qingjiao into meeting Ye Junchen.
However, Shen Wanyi felt much better when she thought about the fact that Shen Qingjiao was secretly doing something treasonous which could cost her her life.
So what if my sister is so successful now?
When the conspiracy is exposed in the future, Ye Junchen will definitely cut off all ties with her, and her sister won’t even know how she died!
Thinking of this, Shen Wanyi felt relaxed all over.
My sister is a short-lived creature, why should she envy her?
At this moment, Shen Wanyi suddenly noticed that the third prince was looking at her.
Shen Wanyi sneered and looked at the third prince with disdain, with undisguised sarcasm in her eyes.
Bah, barbarians are barbarians. It must be that Xirong is too poor and shabby, and there are too few beautiful women, so the third prince is staring at her.
That’s right. In a place like Xirong, people are hungry and cold, and there is a lot of wind and sand. How could they see a beauty like her?
Just now, Helian Yu felt that Prince Anling's personal maid had angry eyes and was staring at Concubine Shen. He felt a little strange and looked at her a few more times.
However, the maid noticed that he was looking at her and looked back at him with an extremely sarcastic look.
Helian Yu sneered in his heart, pulled the corner of his mouth, and bowed to Ye Junhong who was on the high seat, "Your Majesty, I have just learned an idiom and I find it very interesting."
Ye Junhong admired Helian Yu's love for Central Plains culture.
Hearing this, he couldn't help but smile, "What words did the third prince learn? Please tell me."
Helian Yu said, "The idiom is '东效西颦'. According to legend, the beautiful Yue country girl Xi Shi often covered her chest with her hands and frowned because of the pain in her heart."
"When the ugly girl next door saw this, she thought Xi Shi was very beautiful, so she also followed her example of covering her chest and frowning. Then everyone realized that the ugly girl looked even uglier by doing this."
Having said this, he suddenly turned to look at Shen Wanyi, smiling with some ill intent.
Shen Wanyi's heart skipped a beat, wondering why the Third Prince suddenly looked at her.
Thinking back to what he had just said, Shen Wanyi had a bad feeling.
As expected, Helian Yu pointed at Shen Wanyi and asked in a serious and meticulous manner, "The maid's clothes seem to be very similar to those of the imperial concubine?"
However, just after he finished saying this, he sighed again and shook his head slightly.
"But what does it matter if the clothes are similar? Her appearance is much worse than that of the Imperial Concubine. In my opinion, if the Imperial Concubine is compared to Xi Shi, then the maid is the ugly one."
Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes immediately looked back and forth between Shen Wanyi and Shen Qingjiao.
The dresses they wore were all silver-red gauze skirts with golden peach blossom branches all over them.
However, the imperial concubine’s dresses were all made in the palace, the fabrics were of higher quality, the gold threads were clearly visible, and they were extremely dazzling.
In addition, the dress was well-cut, which made the imperial concubine's waistline look particularly graceful. At first glance, she looked like a fairy from heaven who had descended to earth.
But let’s take a look at the personal maidservant beside Prince Anling.
The dress she wore was in no way comparable to the imperial concubine's palace dress. The fabric and cut were so different that it looked like something from a street stall.
Besides, the imperial concubine has fair skin and an extraordinary appearance. There is a huge difference between the maid and the imperial concubine.
Sure enough, what the third prince said was right. If the imperial concubine was Xi Shi, the personal maid beside Prince Anling would be an ugly woman!
Everyone whispered among themselves.
"That maid is indeed far inferior to the Imperial Concubine."
"Yes, she really brought shame upon herself by daring to wear the same dress as the Imperial Concubine."
"The Third Prince has learned idioms very well. He uses the phrase '东习西颦' very well!"
"In my opinion, the maid must have offended the Third Prince, so the Third Prince took the opportunity to mock her."
Shen Wanyi felt extremely embarrassed as she felt the disdainful gazes coming from all directions.
She called out to Prince Anling in a low voice, "Your Highness, that barbarian actually laughed at me in public. I am your maid. How can you save your face if he does this? You must teach him a lesson..."
Ye Junchen looked displeased and raised his hand to stop Shen Wanyi from continuing.
"You are just my maid now. Everyone will just laugh it off and it will be over. No one will take it to heart. You don't need to be nervous."
Ye Junchen naturally would not be easily instigated by Shen Wanyi's words.
In fact, from beginning to end, he never thought about standing up for Shen Wanyi.
Just imagine, if he openly clashed with the three princes of Xirong for a maid, everyone would just think he was mentally ill and he would become the topic of conversation after dinner.
Besides, he had not planned to bring Shen Wanyi to the banquet.
It was only after Shen Wanyi begged him repeatedly and tried every possible means that he became so annoyed that he reluctantly agreed to let her stay by his side as a personal maid.
Seeing that Ye Junchen refused to speak for her, Shen Wanyi could only remain silent and lower her head.
For some reason, Ye Junchen has been in a bad mood recently and seems to be slightly impatient with her.
Therefore, she couldn't show her temper, lest she anger Ye Junchen and end up losing more than she gained.
Above the high position.
Shen Qingjiao didn't react much to Helian Yu comparing her to Xi Shi and Shen Wanyi to an ugly woman.
Anyway, she won't be the one to be embarrassed.
Then, Helian Yu made a request to Emperor Ye Junhong, asking if he could stay in the palace for a while. He wanted to take this opportunity to learn martial arts from the generals in the palace.
Ye Junhong is in a good mood today.
Without giving it much thought, he agreed with a wave of his hand and immediately ordered the eunuch Wang Mingqing to notify the Ministry of Internal Affairs to arrange accommodation for the third prince.
After getting the answer, Helian Yu felt relieved and secretly glanced at Shen Qingjiao again.
In fact, saying that he wanted to learn martial arts from the generals was just an excuse.
He stayed, but wanted to find an opportunity to meet and chat with the imperial concubine more often.
He likes to be with smart people.
After all, if he returned to Xirong immediately, he might never have the chance to see Concubine Shen again.
The banquet was halfway through.
Shen Qingjiao suddenly felt a little full. After reporting to Ye Junhong, she stood up and walked out of the hall, intending to take a walk along the lake.
Seeing her sister leave, Shen Wanyi thought for a moment and said to Ye Junchen, "Your Highness, I haven't seen you for a long time. I want to talk to you."
Ye Junchen nodded silently.
By the lake, under the shade of trees.
Shen Qingjiao walked slowly, feeling the cool breeze, which was very comfortable.
The system suddenly spoke, "Host, the original owner's sister Shen Wanyi is here to see you."
Then, a slightly resentful female voice came from behind, "Sister, when that barbarian mocked me for being an ugly imitator, why didn't you speak up for me?"
Shen Qingjiao turned around suddenly.
She smiled lightly, looked directly into Shen Wanyi's eyes, and said solemnly, "Because, my sister is very busy."
Shen Wanyi was stunned.
As a noble concubine who is high up in the sky, my sister has palace maids and eunuchs to serve her no matter what she wants to do. She has very little time to spare. What is there for her to be busy about?
After thinking about it, Shen Wanyi still couldn't figure it out, so she could only bite the bullet and ask, "Sister, what are you busy with?"
Shen Qingjiao smiled slightly, "I'm busy drinking tea and eating snacks."
