Dethroned the Crown Princess? Then she became your mother

Zhang Tianai bowed politely, with proper manners and proper etiquette.

"No need to be so polite." The imperial concubine looked at her with a haughty gaze, as if she were just an insignificant passerby. "There is no need to be so polite to me. The emperor is here, you just need to know the etiquette."

Her eyes were fixed on the emperor, as if the emperor was her only focus.

Zhang Tianai stood up and responded silently in his heart.

"Why is the emperor here today? I didn't know that the emperor was coming. I have been feeling uneasy since the emperor left last night." The imperial concubine held the emperor and asked with a bit of coquettishness.

Upon hearing this, the Queen also interrupted, "Yes, Your Majesty, if you have any errands, just leave them to me." There was a hint of interruption in her words.

Murong Shuo didn't say much, just glanced at them lightly.

"Your Majesty has come here to visit everyone. All the sisters are very happy about this. Your Majesty, please take a seat first and let the sisters greet you one by one."

The Queen spoke in a magnanimous tone, her eyes sweeping over all the women before gracefully stepping aside.

The imperial concubine took the lead again, approached the emperor, and said in a sweet voice: "I am willing to serve the emperor." Her body moved closer.

Murong Shuo looked at her and nodded slightly.

The imperial concubine then led the emperor to the inner room.

But the queen stopped them first.

Her behavior was still virtuous: "Your Majesty, you are going to..." Murong Shuo nodded to her, but seemed puzzled why she stopped him. Wasn't he traveling with the imperial concubine?

He chose to sit aside with the imperial concubine.

The concubines once again turned their eyes to Murong Shuo.

The same is true for Concubine Shu.

Only Zhang Tianai was left alone.

She did not act immediately on the Queen's order.

"Sister Zhang, what are you still doing standing there? Come here too." The Queen looked at Zhang Tianai, her eyes complicated.

Zhang Tianai thanked him but did not go over immediately.

"Come to me." Murong Shuo spoke again, his deep eyes fixed on Zhang Tianai.

He held out his hand to her and called.

All eyes were on her.

Zhang Tianai seemed unconcerned, as if she was unaware of the gazes from around her. She walked weakly through the crowd and approached him.

"From now on, you must live in harmony with everyone, and they will all give in to you. Now you have met the queen." Murong Shuo said gently to Zhang Tianai.

Then he turned to the other women and said, "This is Zhang, from outside the palace, who once saved me."

Murong Shuo clearly conveyed the instructions for action to everyone. His tone was firm and clear, allowing everyone to understand what they should do.

His hand gently held hers, and Zhang Tianai lowered her head, a sickly blush on her face. Her beauty was heart-warming, and it added a bit of shyness.

The Queen's gaze also fell on her, and the imperial concubines stared at the newly promoted "Good Concubine".

Murong Shuo's gaze moved among the crowd.

The Queen echoed, she understood the Emperor's intention - "This is natural, my sisters, right? The Emperor said that anyone who saved him is his savior, and ours as well."

The emperor's actions made the woman's status higher in public.

This was to elevate her status and protect her in the palace. He even had to come forward to defend her, so that everyone would understand the importance of this woman and fear that she would suffer the slightest injustice.

Zhang Tianai's appearance obviously changed the atmosphere in the palace, and everyone's faces changed slightly.

Murong Shuo said no more.

Zhang Tianai seemed to have something else to say, but was interrupted by the imperial concubine's actions.

The imperial concubine picked up the teacup and handed it to the emperor's lips with a smile. Other women followed suit.

The queen saw it and glanced at Zhang Tianai again.

Zhang Tianai asked the Queen why she was looking at her, but the Queen could no longer keep her smile and looked a little embarrassed.

Murong Shuo took the imperial concubine's teacup, clinked glasses with hers, drank it, and smiled at her.

As for the other women, his expression was not so good, and he just asked them to go back and sit down. Seeing this, the Queen immediately signaled to Concubine Lan and Concubine Shu.

Although there was a hint of hesitation in Concubine Shu's eyes, she did not want to anger the Emperor, so she did not move.

Lanpin stood up. Her temperament was not delicate, but a kind of cold beauty.

Just as she was about to speak, Murong Shuo just glanced at her and didn't say much, which made her and the concubine standing beside her feel a little embarrassed.

Zhang Tianai clenched her teeth. She didn't want to look at Murong Shuo.

There are many women in the palace, and at this moment he seems to be surrounded by flowers.

She had never seen such a scene before when she was the Crown Princess, but now she witnessed it with her own eyes.

She wondered why he was still looking at her, was he asking her to go over and join those women?

She chose to ignore him and turned away.

Murong Shuo stared at the bricks on the ground, trying to calm his restless mood caused by anger.

He noticed that the woman next to him didn't look at him, and he couldn't help but frown slightly, feeling a little unhappy.

However, his attention was cleverly diverted when the imperial concubine approached intimately, and then when another woman approached.

The air is filled with rich fragrance, which makes people intoxicated.

Murong Shuo couldn't help but snort and said again: "Get out of the way."

There was undeniable authority in his voice.

Zhang Tianai also smelled the mixed scent of various spices, and the rich fragrance made her feel a little suffocated.

She couldn't help but wonder if the emperor could tolerate such a fragrance.

The queen's eyes swept across the crowd and finally fell on Zhang Tianai who was standing alone.

She felt a stir in her heart, and felt that the Zhang in front of her had a striking resemblance to someone.

"You." The queen called softly, her eyes revealing an indescribable sense of familiarity.

The more I look at her, the more I feel that Zhang Tianai resembles the former Crown Princess.

An inexplicable emotion surged in the Queen's heart, and she spoke gently, "Sit down."

Zhang Tianai responded flattered, and then sat down at the Queen's gesture.

Just when Zhang Tianai was about to calm down, the imperial concubine's voice sounded again softly, with a hint of charm.

This made her unable to help but look over there again, and she found that the Queen was also looking at this side.

The women who had previously tried to approach the emperor were pushed to the back.

"Your Majesty," another woman called out to the Emperor, trying to squeeze in front of the Imperial Concubine and the Emperor.

The Queen smiled and said, "Your Majesty, the sisters miss you so much. You must spend more time with them when you have time."

There was a magnanimous temperament in her tone, but in Murong Shuo's eyes, it was just a facade.

Murong Shuo nodded slightly. He did not pay too much attention to the women who wanted to get close to him.

He waved his hand lightly, and the women were skillfully pushed away.

His gaze turned back to the imperial concubine and he continued talking to her.

During the conversation, he suddenly stood up and said, "I have some official business to attend to. I'll excuse myself first."

The queen and the other women were speechless for a moment and could only watch him leave.

The imperial concubine held the emperor's hand tightly and said, "Your Majesty, please wait a moment."

Murong Shuo whispered to her, "I do have something important to attend to, and I can't stay here long. You all should go back."

After saying that, he turned around and prepared to leave.

At this moment, the Queen suddenly said, "Then Sister Zhang, please stay and talk to us."

She smiled at Zhang Tianai, as if telling her to stay and observe everything carefully.

Zhang Tianai felt mixed emotions and wanted to express his wishes.

But the Queen was thinking: I am the Queen, I will definitely declare this territory mine without hesitation!

In the end, Murong Shuo nodded and agreed to the Queen's proposal, leaving Zhang Tianai to spend time with everyone.

The queen's words revealed her dissatisfaction with the emperor, and the imperial concubine also echoed the queen's words, expressing her dissatisfaction with the emperor.

Deep in the imperial concubine's heart, her curiosity about this woman, Zhang, seemed to grow stronger.

She wanted to observe the woman carefully, perhaps she could find something from her.

Zhang Tianai felt the change in the atmosphere around her.

She thought about it for a moment and decided to follow the emperor.

At this moment, Murong Shuo's gaze was fixed on Zhang Tianai like a sharp sword.

He seemed to know her hesitation and reluctance, so he urged: "What are you waiting for?"

"Your Majesty," Zhang Tianai felt happy after hearing this. She raised her head and her eyes met the emperor's.

She replied softly, "Oh, are you calling me? Okay, I'll be right there." Then she took a step and walked towards the emperor.

The Queen spoke again, her voice revealing an indescribable tension and anxiety.

She didn't want Zhang Tianai to leave, and even reached out to try to pull her back.

However, it was all too late, Zhang Tianai had already walked to the emperor's side.
