Xin Changzai has always been good at talking. After she finished speaking, she pulled Jingpin and Zhen Huan away, without giving Fucha Guiren a chance to talk back.

Noble Lady Fucha glared at their backs angrily, and Bai Yu advised her: "Don't be angry, my lady, they are just jealous of you."

Noble Lady Fucha snorted, "Of course I know, especially Concubine Xin. Who doesn't know that? She gave birth to a daughter for the Emperor, but she is still a Concubine, with a lower rank than me. Seeing that I will be promoted to a concubine after giving birth to a child in the future, she is naturally jealous."

Looking around the entire palace, the only one who dared to talk about promotion was Noble Lady Fucha.

She was pregnant and should have kept a low profile, but she offended many people during this period.

Bai Yu just watched and didn't try to persuade her.

The flower room still cultivated green chrysanthemums this year. When the queen saw it, she sighed, "Last year, the flower room also cultivated a few pots of green chrysanthemums, but Shen Da Ying liked them, so the emperor gave them all to her. By the way..."

The Queen turned to Concubine Hua and said, "I remember that Concubine Hua ran into the servant who was delivering green chrysanthemums to Concubine Shen in the Imperial Garden, right?"

When mentioning last year's Green Chrysanthemum, Concubine Hua got angry. It was simply a shame for her, but the old woman, the Queen, had to bring it up in front of so many people!

Concubine Hua rolled her eyes and said, "So what if green chrysanthemums are precious? Last year, she was a newly favored noble lady, but this year, she has become a concubine imprisoned in the Chrysanthemum Hall. I don't care about green chrysanthemums or not. In my opinion, the bright red chrysanthemums are more beautiful. Just like life, it should be vigorous and exciting."

"I'm afraid some people say the grapes are sour because they can't eat them." At this time, Noble Lady Fucha was supported by Bai Yu and walked over. She was now full of the Queen's kindness to her. They were all from the Manchu army, so naturally they couldn't just watch Concubine Hua being so arrogant. In addition, she was pregnant now, so no matter what, the Emperor would not punish her, and Concubine Hua would have no way to deal with her.

Hua Fei turned sideways and said, "I see that someone has become arrogant because of her favor. She is so excited every day because she is pregnant that she doesn't even care about her social status. If she gives birth to a prince, won't you be able to ascend to heaven?"

Noble Lady Fucha choked. Indeed, even if she was more arrogant now, it couldn't change the fact that she was still just a small noble lady.

"Okay, we are all sisters from the same family, why say these things?" The queen spoke up to mediate.

Hua Fei despised the Queen's hypocritical behavior the most: "Even if the Queen is partial to Noble Lady Fucha, she can't ignore the rules, right? After all, I am an old servant of the Emperor, and I am also a concubine. I have been in charge of the six palaces. Even if Noble Lady Fucha is pregnant, she is just a little noble. How can the Queen think that this is the right attitude to talk to me?"

The Queen looked at her and didn't want to say anything more. Besides, she really didn't like Noble Lady Fucha's arrogance.

Xia Dongchun and noblewoman Borjigit stood aside without saying a word. They both just wanted to enjoy the flowers in peace and then go back.

But there are people who don't want her to have her wish come true.

Concubine Cao seemed to be indifferent: "Empress, Concubine Hua, let's not talk about these unhappy things while we are enjoying the flowers today. I heard an interesting story these two days and I was just thinking of telling it to you."

"Oh? What's the matter?" The Queen looked at Concubine Cao, her eyes full of suspicion. Based on her understanding of Concubine Cao, how could Concubine Cao interrupt for no reason if she had no purpose?

"I also heard about this from people's idle chatter. It was said that some concubine in the previous dynasty drank a lot of tonics after she became pregnant. Every time she felt discomfort in her stomach, she asked the emperor to see her. Who would have thought that the imperial physician found that the concubine had eaten too much." There was no sign from Concubine Cao's expression whether she was secretly mocking Concubine Fucha.

"Oh? There is such a ridiculous person?" The Queen seemed unaware that Noble Lady Fucha had previously been diagnosed by the Imperial Physician as having overeating.

After all, Noble Lady Fucha found the incident embarrassing, so she naturally wouldn't let anyone spread it.

"Yes, when I heard about it, I was also surprised and amused." Concubine Cao covered her lips.

"In my opinion, this is a stupid thing done by a stupid person." Hua Fei plucked a flower and played with it in her hand. "Only those who are not confident of their own favor will do everything possible to keep the emperor. If it is like me, even if I don't have children, what's the harm?"

These words were spoken quite arrogantly, and the queen's face turned cold for a moment.

"Where did you hear this joke, Sister Cao?" Noble Lady Fucha was anxious. She was afraid that people would know that she was the one who ate too much. "Besides, I think it's okay to take some supplements when you are pregnant. Otherwise, you will be like Princess Lingyuan. If you are not careful-"

The words were on the tip of Fucha's tongue, but she suddenly realized that she should just think about it in her mind, and it would be inappropriate and against the rules to say it out loud, so she took them back.

But how could the people present not understand what she meant?

Isn’t it just that Princess Lingyuan is weak and will die if she’s not careful?

This touched Xia Dongchun's bottom line. She had planned to wait for it to end quietly, but who knew that the anger would burn herself and curse her daughter like this!

"Why is Noble Lady Fucha so anxious? Sister Cao was just telling a joke. Ah, could it be... that you were the one who ate too much and then used the excuse of fetal discomfort to invite the Emperor?" If Xia Dongchun really had a sharp tongue, she should not be underestimated.

Without waiting for Noble Lady Fucha to say anything, Xia Dongchun sneered and continued, "Oh, I forgot, if my Ling Yuan has any illness, it is also thanks to you, Noble Lady. After all, weren't Ju'er and Sang'er by your side sent to the Ministry of Punishment because of this?"

Although Xia Dongchun knew that these two things were probably unrelated to Noble Lady Fucha, she had to expose the matter in front of everyone because Noble Lady Fucha had offended her.

"You!" Noble Lady Fucha's face turned red, "You slandered me!"

"What are you saying, Noble Lady Fucha? How dare I slander you? After all, you are pregnant now, carrying a dragon fetus. You are so precious that even when you are full, you have to ask the emperor to come over to see you." Xia Dongchun rolled his eyes at her, "Who dares to slander you, Noble Lady?"

Noble Lady Borjigit was also very angry, but when she heard this, she couldn't help laughing. Dongchun's little mouth seemed to be filled with poison. Noble Lady Fucha was probably going crazy with anger.

Noble Lady Fucha was really going crazy.

But before she could say anything else, the Queen spoke up, "Come on, Noble Lady Fucha, you should be more restrained in what you say. The princess is the Emperor's daughter, can you just talk about her casually? What you said just now was too inappropriate, no wonder Noble Lady Zhao was upset."

Noble Lady Fucha had no choice but to shut up.
