The naive concubine is only interested in being a bad person. Your Majesty, please change your favor

"Shufei doesn't have such a brain. It's the Queen Mother who wants to use this to eliminate you." Xiahou Xuan said in a very serious manner.

"But I don't quite understand. I was just a small noble before. Even if I am a noblewoman now, I have no family background and no high position. How could the Queen Mother condescend to deal with me? This doesn't make sense..."

Jiang Wange boldly expressed his doubts, then stared at Xiahou Xuan, waiting for him to give him an answer.

Xiahou Xuan knew that she must have a lot of doubts, but there were some things that it was not a good time to let her know.

"You should know that the Queen Mother and Consort Shu are cousins, right?"

"What? They are cousins? How is that possible! One married your father, and the other married you? This is too..."

"That's ridiculous, isn't it?"

Jiang Wange was so shocked that he was speechless. He just nodded to show that he was really shocked.

"The Queen Mother's original name was Xia Qingwan, and the Consort was Xia Qinghuan. The former was the daughter of the Xia family's direct lineage, and the latter was the daughter of a branch lineage. The Xia family is a century-old family with an unshakable position in Fengyu Country. Otherwise, do you think that if they had two daughters, one could become the Queen Mother and the other could become the Consort?"

When Xiahou Xuan mentioned the two of them, his eyes were full of disdain and contempt.

"So the Queen Mother is really only in her twenties, not just the way she looks, right?" Jiang Wange asked again.

"Xia Qingwan is one year younger than me."

Xiahou Xuan sighed. When he first knew that Xia Qingwan was going to be made queen by his foolish and incompetent father, he felt extremely horrified.

This time Jiang Wange was so shocked that he was speechless and could only stare at him with wide eyes.

"So why do you think I have so many concubines, but I have never touched any of them?"

"Disgusted? Mysophobia? Or something else?"

"First, I simply despise these mediocre women. Second, once I favor the concubines in the harem, they will definitely try their best to get pregnant with my prince. The concubines in the harem are connected to the forces of the previous dynasty. If another concubine gets pregnant with the prince, it will be fine. But if Concubine Shu gets pregnant, the Xia family will definitely take advantage of the prince. By then, the country will be unstable, and Fengyu will be in turmoil."

After hearing Xiahou Xuan's words, Jiang Wange slowly understood his deep meaning. No wonder he wanted to use her to purge the harem.

"So on the day of the selection, you were attracted by my beauty and took the initiative to propose me as your wife, so that the Queen Mother would plant a seed of suspicion. After I officially enter the palace, the Queen Mother's faction will continue to target me until I die, right?"

Jiang Wange understood it immediately.

"You've just figured it out? I thought you had already figured it out when I proposed to cooperate with you. So, Jiang Wange, I'll give you another chance. Do you choose to fight or not?" Xiahou Xuan's eyes were extremely serious, wanting to know Jiang Wange's answer.

"Is there any difference between the two?" Jiang Wange was puzzled. At this point, did she have any other choice?

"If you fight, you will be surrounded by dangers from now on, and you may even lose your life. But after the matter is accomplished, I will set you free as I promised before. If you don't fight, you will be my favorite concubine, and you don't need to worry about anything and stay by my side forever."

For Jiang Wange, fighting and not fighting are both false propositions. She is already behind bars and there is no way she can not fight.

"Your Majesty, I can only choose to fight, so please don't test me. I will definitely complete our cooperation, and please be sure to keep your promise."

Jiang Wange looked at Xiahou Xuan with clear eyes, making it impossible for him to escape.

Xiahou Xuan couldn't explain what he felt in his heart, but it seemed that he had expected her answer and was not very disappointed.

"Okay, I will."

"During this period, please protect me, Your Majesty, and don't let me get killed."

Hearing this, Xiahou Xuan couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"I won't let you die."

"Hehe, thank you very much, Your Majesty."

"Then...can I still sleep with you?"

To Jiang Wange's ears, what he meant was, Can I still sleep with you?

If it were in the past, Jiang Wange would definitely refuse outright and tell him to get as far away as possible!

But after last night, her mood changed again. Life is only a few decades long, so we should enjoy it while we can! Anyway, Xiahou Xuan is a handsome guy with eight abdominal muscles, so she won't suffer any loss at all!

"It depends on my mood. If I'm in a good mood, you can come to me. If I'm in a bad mood, I will reject you!" Jiang Wange said very freely.

Hearing this, Xiahou Xuan smiled, which meant he didn't refuse.

"Okay, I'll obey you."

The two people smiled at each other. It seemed that something was spreading between them, but they didn't notice it and let it grow. By the time they discovered it, it had already taken root and grown vigorously, and could no longer be ignored.

At this time, the two sisters in Ci'an Palace could no longer sit still.

"How can you be such a loser! I have already sent His Majesty to you, and you still let him go? Now, Jiang Wange has taken advantage of it for nothing! I don't know if His Majesty and Jiang Wange have consummated their marriage last night. If they have, then there is a possibility that she is pregnant, and I have to make other plans!"

The Queen Mother said this in great anger, not even wanting to look at Concubine Shu.

Concubine Shu was so well-reprimanded by the Empress Dowager that she dared not say a word.

After the Queen Mother's anger subsided a little, she began to explain:

"Last night, just as your majesty arrived at my palace, a palace maid came and called your majesty away. I had no way to stop your majesty, right? However, I asked someone to check the bed in the side hall, and found no signs of serving the emperor. If something really happened between the two of them last night, there would definitely be traces left in the side hall, so Jiang Wange must not have succeeded in serving the emperor."

"How is that possible? Jiang Wange drank several glasses of wine laced with strong drugs. If no one helps her relieve the effects of the drugs, she will explode and die." The Queen Mother obviously did not believe what Concubine Shu said.

"Could it be that Your Majesty used other methods to remove the effects of the medicine for her?" Concubine Shu asked again.

"No, there is no antidote for this medicine except love between men and women." The Queen Mother replied with a cold face.

Now, Concubine Shu’s face didn’t look very good either.

"After your majesty and Jiang Wange returned to Xianfu Palace last night, I guess... Queen Mother, what should we do now? We must not let Jiang Wange get pregnant with an heir to the throne!"

"Are you anxious now? If you weren't so useless, why would I have to think of other tricks to deal with Jiang Wange?" The Queen Mother gave Concubine Shu a cold look.

Concubine Shu was scolded so much that she dared not say a word. If Jiang Wange became pregnant with the royal heir first, she would definitely be abandoned by the Xia family, and the Xia family would definitely send someone else into the palace to replace her!

"I will have someone send her contraceptive soup. Don't worry about the rest. If you miss this opportunity, it will be difficult to get close to His Majesty next time. You should take care of yourself."

The Queen Mother sighed, obviously very disappointed with Concubine Shu.
