Rong Fei is not honored

Originally, they thought that Nianhulu and Tonggiya would be different. After all, they were the future queens. How could they be the same as them, the concubines?

However, since Niohuru entered the palace, she was treated the same as them, being treated coldly and ignored, which made the concubines very unhappy.

So what if she has a good family background? So what if she might be the future queen? Isn't she still as unpopular as them?

Everyone was jealous of Concubine Rong and wanted to take her place, but no matter how much they hated her, they dared not actually attack Zhong Cuigong.

Those who dared to take action all "died of illness" quietly.

Now that they saw that the future queen was treated the same as them, their hearts felt twisted and unbalanced.

Especially on the first day when he saw Tong Jia enter the palace, the Emperor not only did not stay in Chengqian Palace, but instead rested in Zhongcui Palace. The anger that had been pent up in his heart finally disappeared.

Tong Jia, who was venting her anger, learned that several concubines came to visit. She first frowned impatiently, and then secretly resented why only a few concubines came.

At this time, Tong Jia had completely forgotten that even though she enjoyed the status of a concubine, she was ultimately just a small concubine.

Tong Jia asked someone to clean up the floor, and then she walked to the main seat in the main hall and sat down, sitting upright, waiting for several people to come and greet her.

After Zhao Jia and the other concubines went in, they found that the other party not only did not come to greet them, but did not even show any intention of standing up, so they felt a little unhappy.

Originally they wanted to praise Tong Jia and curtsy to please her, but now they were not in the mood to do so, so they just bowed slightly and got it over with.

Tong Jia had long regarded herself as the queen, and felt that the only thing she lacked from the Kunning Palace was an imperial edict.

Tong Jia, who was already unhappy because her cousin did not come to her palace last night, was even more furious when she saw that a few mere concubines dared to "bully" her like this.

Tong Jia wanted to explode directly, but was stopped by Tong Ma Ma beside her.

Tong Jia was not the kind of person who didn't know what was good for her. She knew that Tong Ma was originally a servant of her aunt and later served in the Qianqing Palace. Tong Jia was able to listen to her advice to some extent.

Concubine Zhaojia was not blind, so she naturally saw the interaction between Tong Jia and the nanny beside her, and she felt even happier.

It seems that this Tonggiya is even more stupid than I thought.

If used properly, Tong Jia's identity as the Emperor's cousin could become a powerful weapon.

I just don't know who is more important in the Emperor's heart, Concubine Rong who has a son and is favored, or the cousin who may become the queen.

Thinking of this, the smile on Concubine Zhaojia's face became more sincere.

"Please forgive me, sister. We should have been very respectful to you when we met you, but the order has not been issued yet, and we are afraid that it will bring you trouble."

Although the people following Concubine Zhaojia were dissatisfied with Tong Jia's arrogance, they also knew that they would not be able to offend her in the future, so they began to agree.

After these words were spoken, the anger on Tong Jia's face dissipated a little.

That's true. At this moment, I am just a concubine. If I receive a generous gift from others and my cousin hears about it, what should I do if he misunderstands me and thinks I don't know the rules because of a few ignorant people?

Seeing that her own princess calmed down after a few words from Concubine Zhaojia, Nanny Tong sighed secretly. It seemed that the Tong family had raised the princess too naive.

After clearly sensing Tong Jia's change of mood, Concubine Zhaojia smiled and complimented her a few more times, then talked about some well-known palace rules. After noticing Tong Jia's impatience, she stopped talking in time and changed the subject:

"I am only a concubine, so I don't know as much about the palace as my sisters Rong Fei and Hui Fei do.

In fact, it is reasonable to say that they should have informed you of these things, but Sister Rong Fei has been unwell recently, so she was unable to come to see you in time. Please don't worry!"

Concubine Zhaojia's superfluous last sentence made Nanny Tong frown.

Tong Jia was already dissatisfied with this seductive woman who had bewitched her cousin. When she learned that her cousin did not come to Chengqian Palace when she entered the palace yesterday because he wanted to accompany Rong Fei, she hated him.

After hearing what Concubine Zhaojia said, she could not stop feeling disgusted with Concubine Rong.

"Suspicious? Why should I be suspicious? Concubine Rong is just a concubine. Even if I want to know about the situation in the palace, I will naturally ask my cousin. What does it have to do with her?"

Tong Jia's words were very impolite. Not only did she despise Rong Fei from the standpoint of the main wife, she also did not take all the concubines in the palace seriously.

The expressions of Zhao Jia and the other concubines were a little stiff. Rong Fei was a concubine, so what were these concubines without any rank? A concubine?

What's hateful is that Tong Jia is still just a concubine like them. She is not even as good as Nianhulu, who has been granted the title of concubine by imperial decree. What is there to be so arrogant about?

If such a person were to become the queen, would there be any hope for them to survive? I'm afraid that by then, it would not be any easier than living under the Hesheli family.

Although Concubine Zhaojia came here today just to use Tonggiya to deal with Concubine Rong, and her words just now also contained hints of provocation, but when she heard Tonggiya's impolite words, she was still so angry that she clenched her fists.

After taking a few deep breaths, Concubine Zhaojia managed to suppress the anger in her heart, and said with a forced smile:

"Having said that, isn't this the respect that should be shown?

Back then, on the day Sister Niuhulu entered the palace...I spoke out of turn."

Concubine Zhaojia hurriedly stood up and admitted her mistake, saying, "I did say the wrong thing, but I absolutely did not mean to sow discord. Sister Rongfei has been feeling unwell since last month, and it was not something she pretended to do to target you."

Nanny Tong had been watching Concubine Zhaojia putting on an act from the very beginning. She just felt that her own princess was a member of the Tong family and a blood relative of the Emperor, so it was her duty to please these people no matter how hard she tried. So she did not interrupt Concubine Zhaojia.

But now that Concubine Zhaojia had clearly begun to stir up trouble, how could Nanny Tong remain silent? She began to explain, "Indeed, the news of Concubine Rong's illness has spread everywhere, and even the Cining Palace and Shoukang Palace have sent people to visit her.

Nanny Tong's original intention was to subtly remind her master that Concubine Rong was indeed ill, otherwise wouldn't she be deceiving the Grand Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager?

It's not worth taking such a big risk just to give your master a warning.

Unexpectedly, Tong Jia Shi didn't understand what Tong Ma Ma meant at all, nor did she think about it in that way. She snorted coldly:

"Since she's sick, she shouldn't continue to dominate her cousin. If her dragon body is damaged, she would deserve to die a thousand times.

"She doesn't know the rules, it's only because my cousin and the Empress Dowager are soft-hearted that they allow her to be so ignorant. How can she raise a prince well with such behavior?"
