Steal my marriage? Turn around and marry the tyrant to take the throne

The emperor is also a human being, and as a human being he has selfish desires and cannot help but make comparisons.

As a woman he had favored before, Nangong Xuanyu couldn't help but think that every time he showed more favor to other concubines, Concubine Liu would start to get mad. One or two times, it was cute, but if it happened too many times, he would get impatient.

Rou Changzai is so considerate and sensible, and she also considers other concubines. In the harem, only Queen Jiang has such a broad mind.

Although Nangong Xuanyu admired her beauty, the emperor was suspicious by nature, and he could not be sure whether this beauty was fake.

He embraced Shen Zhinian in his arms and calmly tested her: "My beloved concubine is so kind, I naturally cannot let you down. I heard that you went to visit Concubine Liu in the palace during the day?"

Shen Zhinian naturally couldn't say that in order to survive in the cracks, she pretended to take refuge with Concubine Liu, but pretended to be innocent.

"Yes, the Imperial Concubine is a very kind person. She did not despise my lowly status and even rewarded me with the valuable Yuehua Brocade! I am grateful for the Imperial Concubine's kindness, so I went to thank her."

Nangong Xuanyu had always known that Concubine Liu was domineering, but that was because he had spoiled her, so he had always turned a blind eye to it. Rou Changzai was probably the only one in the harem who thought Concubine Liu was easy to get along with.

This little girl didn't realize that Concubine Liu was deliberately trying to win her over in order to win people's hearts.

Forget it, it's rare for a concubine in the harem to have such a pure mind, so let her continue to be silly and cute. Now that she and Concubine Jiang have made enemies, it's not bad that Concubine Liu is willing to protect her.

Have a good night's sleep.

The next day, Nangong Xuanyu got up to attend court. Shen Zhinian was about to get up and serve him, but was stopped by him.

"My beloved concubine has been working hard these past few days. Just let the palace servants take care of you. You can get some more sleep."

Seeing the emperor's favor towards the young lady, Handan and Fuqiu both lowered their heads with a faint smile on their faces.

"His Majesty……"

Nangong Xuanyu's words were too suggestive, and there were so many palace maids in the inner room, Shen Zhinian's face turned red.

Looking at the charming blush on her face, Nangong Xuanyu was in a good mood. Before leaving, he specifically told her: "My beloved concubine, have a good rest. I will come to see you when I am free."

The palace maids all bowed and said, "Your servants respectfully send off Your Majesty!"

The emperor's figure disappeared, and Handan and Fuqiu both breathed a sigh of relief.

Although His Majesty dotes on the young lady and has always been kind to her in Tingyu Pavilion, the pressure from the emperor is not something that ordinary people can withstand.

Soon, people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs brought a stream of rewards to Tingyu Pavilion. Everyone's face was almost wrinkled with smiles, and auspicious words were thrown out in baskets and baskets as if they were free!

After all, although Lady Rou was only a regular concubine, she was a real favorite concubine, so of course they had to curry favor with her!

Shen Zhinian understood that although many palace servants were not of high status, they could play an unexpected role at critical moments. When it comes to ruling subordinates, one must never be stingy.

She waved her sleeves and gave a generous reward. Whether it was the eunuch who delivered the reward or the palace maid of Tingyu Pavilion, they all looked beaming with joy!

It goes without saying that after being favored by the emperor for three consecutive nights, Shen Zhinian is now completely at the center of public attention. There is no telling how many people in the harem envy her.

She knew that she was hated now, and her body was really sore, so she simply stayed in Tingyu Pavilion and didn't go out. Anyway, it was the emperor's will to let her have a good rest, and no one else could find fault with it.

And... the emperor listened to her words last night. If Shen Zhinian guessed correctly, everyone's attention would soon be diverted, and she didn't want to be a sitting duck.

……

The former dynasty and the harem were closely connected, and there were never any secrets in the palace. The fact that Shen Zhinian had jumped from being the daughter of a sixth-rank official to a favored concubine had spread throughout the court and the country.

Lu family.

Shen Nanqiao was full of disbelief and felt that something must have gone wrong!

In her previous life, after she entered the palace, not only did she not receive the favor of His Majesty, but she also caused dissatisfaction among many people because of her unworthy character and was targeted every day.

How could Shen Zhinian, a lowly concubine's daughter, avoid all the traps and catch the emperor's eye? !

However, Shen Nanqiao has always been a noble person. Even if he was jealous in his heart, he would not show it on his face. Instead, he showed a look of disdain.

"A daughter of the Shen family should be as calm as a chrysanthemum, not fighting or competing. My sister has been registered under my mother's name, but she is fighting with others in the palace. It is really disgraceful and has brought shame to me and my mother!"

Lu Jianglin's sister Lu Jiangyue is only eleven years old this year, but children from poor families are sensible at an early age.

She and the concubine Rou in the palace are now related. If Rou is favored, the Lu family may benefit from it in the future, and her marriage will be even better.

Therefore, when Lu Jiangyue saw Shen Nanqiao slandering Shen Zhinian, she couldn't stand it: "Sister-in-law, Rou Changzai has become His Majesty's favorite concubine, which is only good for us and the Shen family. When you say this, it really makes people feel like the grapes are sour because they can't eat them. Tsk..."

What Shen Nanqiao hated most was someone saying that she was not as good as Shen Zhinian, so she immediately said coldly: "What do you know? I don't want to compete with a bunch of women for a man."

It was she who gave Shen Zhinian the chance to enter the palace. If she wanted to enter the palace, what would Shen Zhinian have to do with her?

She was jealous of Shen Zhinian? This was a huge joke!

Lu Jiangyue has been spoiled by her mother and Lu Jianglin since she was a child. How could she give Shen Nanqiao face? She curled her lips in disdain: "Then you just can't stand your own sister being better. You are either stupid or evil!"

Shen Nanqiao grew up in the Shen family, being loved by everyone. When someone dared to talk to her like that, her face immediately turned cold: "You still know that I am your sister-in-law. How can you be so ungrateful as to help others belittle your sister-in-law? Apologize to me immediately!"

Lu Jiangyue immediately howled at the top of her lungs: "Mother! My sister-in-law is bullying me! Wuuwuwu..."

Hearing the noise, Mother Lu quickly ran out of the house. Without even asking what happened, she started to accuse Shen Nanqiao, "Your sister is still a child. Why are you bullying her when you can't just talk to her in a nice way?"

Shen Nanqiao was filled with anger, but couldn't let go of his noble attitude to explain. He just pouted and said, "I have no way to defend myself when you say that to me."

Mother Lu and Lu Jianglin have always depended on each other. She didn't like the idea of ​​an outsider inserting himself between her and her son, and she always disliked Shen Nanqiao. But thinking of the current Lu family, which was still supported by Shen Nanqiao's dowry, she suppressed her displeasure and slowed down her tone.

"Forget it. We are all family. Why should we get upset over such a small matter? Just take out some jewelry and apologize to your sister, and the matter will be over."
