Chapter 47

"If the Queen saw this, I'm afraid she would be heartbroken."

When the Queen heard what Concubine Gao said, she felt a little dissatisfied. Her aunt said that Concubine Gao seemed to be trying to seize power.

She thought her aunt was talking nonsense, but now it seems that Concubine Gao is no longer the Concubine Gao she used to be.

That's right, now that she is the only one in the world, how could things be the same as before?

For her, the emperor couldn't even wait for three years and directly gave priority to Concubine Gao's family.

"It's kind of the Imperial Concubine to feel sorry for Ping, but she should come and tell our Empress." The aunt was also in the room. A woman like Imperial Concubine Gao was not a good person at first glance.

No matter how I explained it to Her Majesty, she always said that Concubine Gao didn't have such thoughts.

Now the fox's tail has finally been revealed.

Concubine Gao squinted her eyes and said softly, "Your Majesty, the aunt next to you seems to be a little unruly."

"The master is talking and you interrupt. Is this the rule taught by that aunt?"

The aunt didn't expect that Concubine Gao would dare to scold her directly in front of the Queen, which was very unruly.

"Your Highness..."

Concubine Gao made a hushing gesture to silence everyone, her brows furrowed slightly. "Your Majesty, you've been so busy lately that the palace staff have become lazy."

The Queen was unhappy when she heard Concubine Gao scold someone twice.

"My aunt is just telling the truth. You don't have to keep staring at me like that."

Concubine Gao knew that she shouldn't speak like that.

But what Tian Ping promised to tell her that day still affected her.

In fact, some things require evidence.

"Why does the Empress get angry over an unruly servant? I've never seen anyone around me like the aunt around the Empress. When the master is talking, the servant can interrupt at will."

It had nothing to do with her, but she had to pick it out to show off.

Aren’t the queen’s servants still servants?

When the aunt heard the Queen's support, she immediately trembled. "Your Majesty, forgive me, I am sorry. But the Imperial Concubine, speaking like this, shows no respect for others."

"The Empress is the master of the harem, and the Imperial Concubine..."

Concubine Gao was the type of person who pretended not to hear what was said behind her back, but she had seen it many times when people talked about her to her face since she was a child.

She grew up later, and during this period of time, she communicated a lot.

"Empress, I just said that you, a palace maid, have poor manners, and now you are taking advantage of the power of others and lecturing me again."

"I am also a noble concubine appointed by the emperor. She is just a servant. Even if she is a servant of the empress, she has no right to say this." Concubine Gao's voice turned cold.

There was a hint of anger on her face, a bit like a peony covered with a layer of ice and snow.

The Queen was dissatisfied with the Imperial Concubine, "Imperial Concubine, please stop talking."

"Empress, you're really protective of your good dog." The imperial concubine blurted out sarcastically, "It seems I still have to talk to the Queen Mother. Everyone around the Empress is so unruly."

"Noble Concubine!" The queen's gentle expression disappeared and she looked cold.

Concubine Gao didn't care at all, and even looked at her nails provocatively. The new nails she had done yesterday were peach pink and looked very beautiful.

I remembered what Concubine Jing said, "Dressing up beautifully is just for men to see? If you dress beautifully yourself, wouldn't it be pleasing to the eye?"

"Your Majesty, I'm listening."

The queen's chest was rising and falling rapidly. She was panicked when she heard the imperial concubine say that she wanted to ask to see the queen mother.

She had never been afraid before.

But now, she was terrified.

The imperial concubine really dared to do such a thing. In the past, she never fought for anything and always lived in peace in her own corner.

Now the imperial concubine is like a completely different person.

The aunt didn't dare to speak anymore. When she heard the Queen Mother's two words, she automatically knelt on the ground.

How come the imperial concubine has now learned to do such despicable things as reporting?

The Queen said sternly, "Noble Consort, you are now increasingly disregarding me. I didn't hold you accountable for what I promised you, but you are trying to find fault with me. It seems that I was wrong about you before."

Concubine Gao's eyes were clear and bright, like the surface of a lake on a spring day. "Your Majesty, there's no need to flatter yourself."

"What Ping promised was originally due to the Queen's failure in managing the harem. I helped the Queen clean up the mess, and you're still not satisfied."

"Not only did you allow a slave to humiliate me, but you also wanted to join forces with this dog slave, one white-faced and the other red-faced, to accuse me of usurpation."

As Concubine Gao spoke, she looked at the Queen again, her eyes full of understanding. "Is it me who is overstepping my bounds, or is it this servant who is overstepping his bounds? The Queen knows it perfectly well."

The Queen was furious and slammed her hand on the table. "My Royal Concubine, who gave you the courage to speak to me like that?"

"I am the mistress of the six palaces, and you are but a concubine. How dare you offend me?"

Concubine Gao admired her beautiful nails indifferently.

"Really? I am the emperor's concubine, and you are the emperor's empress. Aren't we both the emperor's servants?"

She knew what the queen cared about, so of course she stabbed her in the heart.

The queen glared at him and reached out to hit him.

Concubine Gao even deliberately turned her face towards her, smiling provocatively, "Empress, are you going to hit me?"

The queen didn't dare, because she was a virtuous queen, a gentle and dignified queen.

This is already a misconduct nowadays.

Yuzhu just went to the back room to get something, and when she came back she saw this scene.

She immediately went to hold the queen's hand.

When Concubine Gao saw Yuzhu appear again, she had just sent her in and went to the back. Now when she came back, the war was already raging.

He advised the Queen: "Your Majesty, if you have anything to do, just tell the servants to do it. Why bother to go and get it yourself?"

Concubine Gao uttered a "huh" sound, and then she still had that same "what can you do to me" expression on her face.

As Yuzhu spoke, she brought over a plate of snacks from the table next to her.

"Your Majesty, this is the snack you want, right?" If the Queen took action today, the news that the Queen slapped the Imperial Concubine for no reason would spread.

Not just in the palace.

The Empress's reputation has already been questioned by outsiders because of Concubine Jia's incident. Now that it happens again, I'm afraid those people will take it seriously.

Concubine Gao looked at Yuzhu. She came too quickly and wanted to provoke the queen to see what the emperor was thinking.

Now it seems that I still have to find another opportunity.

The queen was held tightly by Yuzhu's hand and could not move at all.

"Get out!" The queen calmed down a little, then shouted harshly.

Concubine Gao stood up, bowed gracefully, said goodbye, and then went to find Yu Suisui.

Why did they look for Yu Sui? Of course, they hoped that Yu Sui would say a few good words about him when he met the emperor.
