Professional Ethics of a Concubine

"Is this important to the princess?" Fang Yunyan also looked at her and asked.

"It's okay, I just asked you casually." Ling Yue smiled and said no more, "It's getting dark, Master Fang, please go back home quickly."

Fang Yunyan wanted to say something but stopped himself. He stared at her deeply, bowed to her and refused to leave.

If you know it's impossible, you shouldn't provoke it.

Ling Yue stared at him until he walked a long way away before she withdrew her gaze and turned to look for her mother.

My father suddenly has a new son. For such a big thing, he should first inform my mother and ask her not to get involved.

She doesn't have any brothers from the same mother, so who sits on that position in the end has nothing to do with her, Ling Yue, or her mother.

But Ling Yue knew that there would be no peace in the palace tonight.

-

The Queen knew that Xie Jin was the prince from what the Emperor told her in person.

After hearing this, the queen's defense broke down immediately, and she tried hard to force out a gentle smile.

"Your Majesty, you must be joking with me. How is this possible? Thank you, sir..."

"I am just informing you, not asking you to question me. I will announce it to the world tomorrow. Please inform the Ministry of Internal Affairs and prepare all necessary items."

The emperor said with a cold expression.

After saying this, the emperor left without staying to comfort the queen or giving any further explanation.

Seems particularly ruthless.

In fact, at the beginning, the emperor still respected the queen. Although he did not love her, he still had some feelings for her.

However, over the years, the things the Queen had done, such as harming concubines and offspring, controlling the Crown Prince, and seizing all kinds of power and interests for her family, had exhausted the love between them.

Especially in the matter of the Crown Princess, he had clearly warned her not to let the Crown Prince marry the girl from their Chen family. However, the Queen still used some means to make the Crown Prince marry her niece.

Therefore, the emperor not only felt disgust towards the queen, but even thought about deposing her many times.

He kept her because she had been well behaved in recent years, and also because he didn't want to depose the crown prince. She was the crown prince's biological mother and should maintain her dignity.

Otherwise, if he wanted to depose the queen, he could justify it by citing all the unscrupulous things the queen had done.

As soon as the emperor left, the queen completely turned into a wolf. Her face was distorted and full of hatred and resentment. There was no trace of her gentleness and dignity.

She wished she could tear down the entire palace, but smashing it could not quench her anger, and she gritted her teeth and cursed the emperor again and again.

Every servant in the palace wished they could crawl into the ground for fear that they would be operated on by the Queen.

The emperor has no affection for the empress, and the same is true for the empress.

She now hopes that the emperor will die soon so that her son can take the throne and she can become the empress dowager.

This beautiful day is getting closer and closer. The prince has grown stronger, has the support of important ministers, and the assistance of the Chen family.

As for the other two princes, Prince Rui and Prince Qi, although they are somewhat threatening, they are nothing to be afraid of.

There are also two underage princes who have not yet been crowned kings. Their mother's families are also powerless and they are not eligible to participate in the fight for the throne.

The position of the crown prince is very stable, just waiting for the emperor to kick the ball.

But, suddenly, the eldest prince appeared!!!

He is not just some unknown guy, but Xie Jin, the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard!

The Queen's murderous intent towards Xie Jin instantly overflowed.

-

There are no secrets in this palace. Once something gets out or a little bit of information is leaked, the masters in the palace will soon know about it.

The news that Xie Jin was a prince was naturally a huge shock.

However, for some women in the harem of low status, no matter how big the thunder is, it has nothing to do with them, and they are not qualified to speak about it at the table.

However, there is a person who is not a concubine, but her relationship with Xie Jin is not simple.

When she heard that Xie Jin was a prince, she reacted greatly.

This person is Concubine Li. Not only is she pregnant with the prince's seed, she is also due to give birth in two months. Moreover, her sister Yao Yinyin was once Xie Jin's concubine!

But that was before.

Yao Yinyin had already buried herself in the family temple. Although she was not dead, she was almost as good as a dead person.

If Yao Yinyin was fine, once Xie Jin's status as a prince was restored, with the face of her father and Concubine Li, she would definitely be able to become a concubine!

By then, Concubine Li could still praise her sister for her keen eye for identifying a gem. She said that she had been determined to become Xie Jin's concubine, and that she had found a treasure by accident.

But now... Lipin let out a sigh of relief.

She touched her round belly and knew that even if she gave birth to a prince, she would not be qualified to compete for anything because she was too young.

If Xie Jin can take that position in the future, it should be better for them and their son than for others.

Lipin was wondering if it was time for her to pave the way for herself and her children and surrender to Xie Jin?

-

The next day.

At the beginning of the morning meeting, the emperor asked the eunuch to announce the imperial edict, conferring the title of King Jing on Xie Jin.

"Jing" means beautiful, glorious and precious. This word is enough to show how much the emperor values ​​Xie Jin.

After hearing this title, even though the prince had learned the news last night and had made sufficient preparations, his face still twitched several times and the anger in his heart increased.

He tried hard but couldn't muster even a festive smile.

But no matter whether the prince was happy or not, the matter was settled.

Xie Jin was named Prince Jing, Zhang Jingyi became Princess Jing, and Ye Qingzhi was also named concubine.

After the court meeting ended, the Duke of Zhenguo walked outside in a daze, and his colleagues around him all smiled and congratulated him.

The Duke of Zhenguo hurriedly put on a smile to deal with them, but in addition to joy, he felt more regret in his heart.

I regret it so much!

Because of the substitute marriage incident, he and his son-in-law Xie Jin have always had a bad relationship!

The fact that Xie Jin became the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard was enough to make him regretful, but he never imagined that he was actually a prince!

When the old Marquis Jiangyang came to ask for his legitimate daughter in marriage, how come he was so stupid as to agree on the surface, but turned a blind eye and let his legitimate wife do such a despicable thing!

I regret it, I regret it!

The Duke of Zhenguo returned home full of regret and immediately lost his temper at his wife, calling her stupid, evil and blind.

Sun was confused and angry at his scolding. She didn't want to endure it anymore and was about to scold him back. Then she heard her husband say,

"The emperor announced something today. Xie Jin is the eldest prince and he will be named Prince Jing."

Sun,...

Everything went dark before her eyes and Sun almost fainted.

Ouch, it’s no use, I’m having a myocardial infarction.

The illegitimate son whom she looked down upon back then was actually the eldest prince, and the immense wealth and honor slipped through her fingers.

Oh, why is she so stupid!

"Jingyi is now Princess Jing, and it is inappropriate for her biological mother to be a concubine. I want to promote her to a co-wife. You should prepare for this."

The Duke of Zhenguo left after saying this and went to look for Zhang Jingyi's biological mother.

Sun covered her aching chest, feeling angry and regretful, and actually fainted...
