Crazy Queen, Striving to Become the Most Beautiful Lady in the Harem

Second day

Zhonghe Palace

Lin Junxue was drinking tea with Li Shiwen and Zhang Yuyan when Guyu hurried in.

"Your Majesty, just now at the gate of Ci'an Palace, Concubine Chen and Concubine Liang had an argument, and Concubine Chen hit Concubine Liang. Now Concubine Liang refused to give in, and the Queen Mother got angry and reprimanded Concubine Chen. She even punished Concubine Chen in public by making her kneel at the gate of Ci'an Palace for an hour before she could get up. Concubine Liang was in Ci'an Palace, and the Emperor had not yet left court, so she didn't know about this."

Lin Junxue nodded slightly, looking calm, and continued to sip her tea.

The two of them, Concubine Chen and Concubine Liang, finally started quarreling.

Did Liang Zhaoyi do it on purpose to anger Chen Fei, or did Chen Fei lose her temper?

This is really interesting.

Zhang Yuyan touched her belly. It was already more than seven months pregnant, so it was not easy for her to go out.

Now, apart from Zhonghe Palace, she usually stays in her own palace.

"Your Majesty, this Concubine Chen has been smart and tolerant since Liang Zhaoyi became favored. The two sisters have been fighting openly and secretly, but they have been able to keep it to themselves on the surface. Why did they quarrel so fiercely in front of the gate of Ci'an Palace today? Concubine Chen even started a fight. The Queen Mother has valued Liang Zhaoyi recently. Although Concubine Chen is a concubine, she is not favored. It is not surprising that the Queen Mother helps Liang Zhaoyi. However, this punishment is a bit harsh. Concubine Chen is one of the four concubines after all. Even if she slapped Liang Zhaoyi, it would not be necessary to embarrass Concubine Chen in public like this."

Li Shiwen also spoke

"Sister Yuyan is right. Even if Concubine Chen was really angry and beat Concubine Liang Zhaoyi, she was not in the right. But the Queen Mother punished her to kneel at the gate of Ci'an Palace for an hour, which was too severe. Concubine Chen cares most about her face. Today, she has completely lost it. But the Queen Mother was the one who issued the order, so Concubine Chen can only accept it."

Lin Junxue put down the teacup

"These days, Liang Zhaoyi is in the limelight, and Chen Fei has been trying to avoid her. Although she also gets angry at the servants in the palace, she doesn't dare to make a big fuss. Since she has been so tolerant, today, Chen Fei hit Liang Zhaoyi. This matter must not be that simple."

Zhang Yuyan said, "Your Majesty, those concubines in the harem who want to rise to the top are just trying to win the emperor's favor and provoke the concubine to take action. Although Liang Zhaoyi was slapped, if she can win the emperor's favor, it will be a good deal."

Li Shiwen frowned

"But kneeling in this icy and snowy place for an hour, the Concubine will probably be seriously ill when she returns home, as the cold air will enter her body. The Queen Mother's punishment is really harsh. After being forced to kneel, she will probably lose half her life."

Lin Junxue looked out the window. Although the snow was lighter, the day was getting colder.

With ancient medical treatment, even a minor cold could kill people.

Lin Junxue said calmly, "The Concubine Chen has been punished to kneel for an hour. I, as the Queen, cannot pretend that I don't know. I should go to Ci'an Palace to take a look. You two should go back to the palace first. Yuyan, your belly is getting bigger. Be careful when you go back. You don't need to come to pay respects these days."

Zhang Yuyan and Li Shiwen looked at each other, stood up, and left.

Lin Junxue changed her clothes, took a sedan chair, and went to Ci'an Palace.

It had snowed last night and the ground was very slippery, so the eunuchs carrying the sedan chair had to be very careful.

Therefore, when we arrived at Ci'an Palace, some time had passed.

When Lin Junxue got off the sedan chair, she saw a man kneeling on the ground at the entrance of Ci'an Palace.

He huddled up, his cloak covered with a layer of fallen snow.

Because of the Queen Mother's punishment, no one dared to step forward, and from a distance, they looked extremely pitiful.

Danzhen stepped forward to support Lin Junxue

"My Lady, where is the Concubine Chen?"

Lin Junxue walked forward step by step, came to Sun Manrou's side, and stopped.

Sun Manrou knelt for a while and her body became stiff.

She turned her head with difficulty and looked at Lin Junxue. She couldn't even raise her hands. Her voice was trembling and her teeth were chattering.

"Your Majesty, you came to see me having fun. You must be very proud to see me being punished to kneel today."

Lin Junxue lowered her head, looked at Sun Manrou, whose face was pale from the cold, and spoke slowly.

"What is there to be proud of? In this harem, all the flowers are in bloom today, and tomorrow, the fire will boil. Why am I laughing at you? You should think carefully about why you were so impatient that you were angered by Liang Zhaoyi and started a fight at the gate of Ci'an Palace. And why the empress dowager punished you so severely, kneeling for an hour, do you think it will cost you your life?"

Sun Manrou was awakened, her eyes suddenly widened and her teeth clenched.

She was enraged by the bitch Sun Qing, and the Queen Mother immediately stood up for Sun Qing.

OK, OK, these two are really vicious women.

Lin Junxue looked at Sun Manrou's face and curled her lips.

After today, as long as Concubine Chen is not dead, she will regard the Queen Mother as her eternal enemy.

The Concubine will bite the Queen Mother to death

Even if she was brainless, she still had a position, and she guessed that Xie Yu chose to start with Liang Zhaoyi and would eventually remove the military power of the Sun family.

In order to show his benevolence, he would also keep Sun Manrou as his concubine.

Show the world that he is a benevolent monarch.

Lin Junxue looked at Danzhen, and Danzhen stepped forward and put the white fox fur coat in her hand on Sun Manrou.

Sun Manrou was stunned and looked at Lin Junxue in disbelief.

"You, Queen, if you help me at this time, aren't you afraid of offending the Queen Mother?"

Lin Junxue's gaze fell on Sun Manrou's face, like the cold frost in winter, very indifferent.

The brilliance between his eyebrows is so compelling that one dares not look directly at him.

Sun Manrou's heart trembled

When

The queen can make people afraid and terrified with just a glance.

That kind of confidence in controlling everything has long been beyond the reach of others.

Next second

Lin Junxue's words completely shocked Sun Manrou

"If I were afraid, I wouldn't have come today. You should think carefully about how you are going to explain to the Emperor when he comes later. If the Emperor still has sympathy for Liang Zhaoyi, will you, the Concubine Chen, still have a chance to survive?"

Sun Manrou's pupils shrank

After Lin Junxue finished speaking, she walked into Ci'an Palace. Danzhen leaned over, helped Sun Manrou up, and whispered in her ear.

"Empress Chen, I will help you up. She asked me to tell you that since you have been kneeling for so long and suffered so much, you should think carefully about how to win the emperor's pity for yourself, instead of being stepped on by Concubine Liang and unable to turn over."

"My lady, I will help you in."

Ci'an Palace

When Lin Junxue walked in

Sun Qing was sitting next to the Queen Mother and acting coquettishly, and the two looked very close.

They looked more like a mother and daughter, and Queen Lin Junxue seemed like an uninvited guest.

"May the Queen Mother be blessed with good health"

The Queen Mother paused for a few seconds deliberately, and said indifferently, "The Queen is here. It's cold today. What is the Queen doing here?"

Sun Qing greets

"I pay my respects to Her Majesty the Queen."

Lin Junxue sat down and spoke

"Liang Zhaoyi, get up!

"Mother, I saw the Concubine Chen kneeling at the gate of Ci'an Palace. It was cold and snowing heavily. Even if the Concubine Chen made a mistake and made you unhappy, Mother, the Concubine Chen is pampered and weak. I'm afraid she can't stand kneeling for too long."

The Queen Mother sneered

"The Queen, are you asking this even though you already know the answer?"
