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

This is good news for Shen Zhinian.

Concubine Zhou became pregnant and suddenly became the focus of the harem. Even if Nangong Xuanyu took her out of the palace, her favor was not so conspicuous.

Most importantly, Shen Zhinian was already calculating when it would be the right time to get pregnant. If she was the only one in the harem who was pregnant, she would immediately become a thorn in everyone's side.

With one more person, the concubines' attention would be diverted by half, and her safety would be better guaranteed.

Concubine Liu took in everyone's false congratulations, smiled sarcastically, and said slowly: "It is precisely because your majesty has few children that the child in Concubine Zhou's belly is particularly noble. Now the main hall and the right hall of Chengqian Palace are empty. Only Concubine Zhou lives in the left hall, and no one takes care of her."

"In order to avoid repeating the mistakes of Concubine Kang, I want to bring Concubine Zhou to live in Yongshou Palace and take care of her dragon fetus personally. What do you think, Queen?"

Everyone in the palace knew that the Imperial Concubine was domineering and jealous. She would make things difficult for any concubine who was favored by His Majesty a few times. How could she tolerate someone being pregnant with the dragon fetus?

After hearing this, everyone's first reaction was that Concubine Liu wanted to get Concubine Zhou under her nose to make it easier to get rid of the baby in her belly.

But on second thought, it seemed unlikely. No matter how domineering the imperial concubine was, she would not dare to harm the dragon fetus so blatantly.

Most of the people present were smart and they immediately understood Concubine Liu's purpose.

She has only one eldest princess. If Concubine Zhou can give birth to a prince this time, he will be your Majesty's eldest son, and will be invaluable!

By raising this child by her side, Concubine Liu's status will be elevated to a higher level. In the future, the position of Empress... the Empress will be in her pocket!

Queen Jiang naturally understood this truth. Her face darkened for a moment, and then she said earnestly, "I understand that the Imperial Concubine has good intentions. But the Imperial Concubine is in charge of the six palaces, and has many things to do. I am afraid that she will not be able to take care of the baby in the belly of the Imperial Concubine Zhou. It is safer to leave this matter to the experienced imperial doctors and nannies."

Concubine Liu glanced at Concubine Liang and said with a half-smile, "Didn't the Queen just arrange for Concubine Liang to assist me? My burden has been lightened a lot, and I have the energy to take care of Concubine Zhou. Besides, looking at the entire harem, I am the only concubine who has given birth. In terms of experience, who can compare with me?"

Queen Jiang didn't expect that she had just promoted Concubine Liang to share Concubine Liu's power, and Concubine Liu used this as an excuse.

At this time, Concubine Zhou also said respectfully: "Empress, I believe in the Imperial Concubine and am willing to move to Yongshou Palace!"

The conversation had come to this point, and even the person involved had no objection. Empress Jiang naturally could not say anything more, and nodded lovingly: "Since the Imperial Concubine has this intention, then the Imperial Concubine will trouble you to take care of Lady Zhou's heir."

This is good. If anything happens to Concubine Zhou’s child in Yongshou Palace, it will be Concubine Liu’s responsibility!

If she wants to seize the prince, it depends on whether she has the ability to do so!

Concubine Liu raised her lips slightly, with a hint of provocation in her eyes: "Your Highness, you are too polite. Since Your Majesty trusts me and has given me the power to assist in managing the six palaces, I will naturally share your worries."

It is the Queen's responsibility to take care of the harem and share the worries of the Emperor. When Concubine Liu said this, she undoubtedly did not take Queen Jiang seriously.

Facing her provocation, Queen Jiang remained calm and said with a smile: "Your Majesty has no prince yet. If Noble Lady Zhou can give birth to a son this time, you will be a hero of the entire Great Zhou! Not only the Noble Concubine, but I also want to thank you."

"Fanghua, take the red coral from my storeroom to Yongshou Palace and give it to Concubine Zhou."

"Slave, you obey!"

Everyone knows that the red coral collected by the Queen is a tribute from the West Sea! Who would have thought that she would give such a valuable gift to Concubine Zhou, which shows that she really values ​​this baby!

At this moment, the jealousy in everyone's eyes could hardly be hidden. If looks could kill, Concubine Zhou would have been stabbed into a sieve long ago!

Shen Zhinian sat in a chair and watched the show quietly. He couldn't help but sigh that Queen Jiang's trick of praising to death was really good!

Concubine Zhou had already caused countless jealousies because she was pregnant with the heir to the throne. How could the women in the harem sit still when she praised Concubine Zhou so highly? By the way, she could also stir up trouble between Concubine Zhou and Concubine Liu.

However, Concubine Zhou didn't notice these twists and turns at all, and said with joy: "Thank you, Queen, for your kindness!"

Concubine Liu narrowed her eyes and her face darkened.

How could she not hear that the old woman, the Queen, was mocking her, saying that she had only given birth to a princess. If Concubine Zhou gave birth to a prince, the eldest princess would be nothing.

But Concubine Zhou is such a fool, she is so short-sighted that she can be blinded by the little favors from Queen Jiang!

If she hadn't considered that he was still useful, she wouldn't bother spending time on this idiot!

"It's getting late. I still need to order someone to move Concubine Zhou to another palace. I'll take my leave now."

Concubine Liu stood up, bowed perfunctorily, and left with a cold snort. Concubine Zhou followed immediately.

In this round, Queen Jiang still had the upper hand.

She smiled and waved her hand, saying, "Okay, I'm tired too, so all the sisters can go back."

Everyone stood up and bowed respectfully: "Your servant/concubine takes your leave!"

In a blink of an eye, only Liu Ruyan remained in Kunning Palace.

These people were all her and Queen Jiang's confidants, so she stopped pretending: "Queen, this child of Concubine Zhou..."

It was clearly an extremely weak face, but the words she spoke were chilling!

Queen Jiang glanced at Liu Ruyan and said, "It has only been half a month since Concubine Kang had a miscarriage. If Concubine Zhou also loses her heir, it will surely cause His Majesty to be furious. The gain will not outweigh the loss. Don't do anything yet."

"Anyway, she has moved into Yongshou Palace. If anything happens to her in the future, it will have nothing to do with us."

Liu Ruyan understood that Queen Jiang's intention was to find a suitable opportunity to frame Concubine Liu.

"Yes."

She suddenly stood up and knelt on the ground, begging, "Empress, ever since Concubine Kang had a miscarriage last time, His Majesty has been suspicious of me."

"For more than half a month, I have tried everything but have not been able to see Your Majesty. If this continues, Your Majesty will definitely forget about me. I beg the Queen to have mercy on me..."

There was a flash of impatience in Queen Jiang's eyes.

She has always disliked useless people. If it weren't for the fact that Liu Ruyan had a really beautiful face and some potential, she would have regarded her as an abandoned pawn long ago.

"Who told you to be so careless that Concubine Rou found out about your personal maid? You also said that His Majesty was suspicious of you. If I were to get involved with you again at this time, wouldn't that make His Majesty suspicious of me?"
