Royal daughter-in-law makes money

Chapter 199

When they thought of this, they all stood up in a panic.

Concubine De, Concubine Shu and Concubine Rao all saw the panic in each other's eyes.

At this moment, there was only one thought in the minds of several people: retreat first!

After all, they wanted to find a concubine for the prince, but they did it without his knowledge.

As they were about to leave, they bumped into the prince who had just entered.

"Prince!" Several concubines could only nod awkwardly at the prince.

"Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!" Zhang Qiaoqiao quickly knelt down and saluted the Crown Prince.

Seeing that Zhang Qiaoqiao was so understanding, Concubine De nodded with satisfaction.

However, Zhang Qiaoqiao was thinking that in this palace, she did not seek to attract much attention, but only wanted to not cause trouble to her parents.

"Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!" Qin Suqing saw Zhang Qiaoqiao saluting, and she quickly knelt down and saluted the Crown Prince.

"Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!" Lin Zhuyue saw the other two people saluting the Crown Prince, so she also knelt down to salute the Crown Prince, but her voice was a little softer, making it hard for people not to notice.

After the ceremony, Lin Zhuyue raised her head and secretly glanced at the prince. Her heart was pounding. She felt that the prince was exactly the kind of husband she wanted.

"I don't know what brought all the ladies to my East Palace today!" The prince glanced at them and said slowly.

"It's not that the Crown Princess is pregnant, I'm afraid she'll be bored, so I came here to keep her company." As the one with the highest rank among the few people, Concubine Rao quickly spoke with a smile.

"Your Highness is thoughtful, but the Crown Princess is pregnant and needs to rest. Please go back!" The Crown Prince said as he ordered everyone to leave.

After hearing this, Lin Zhuyue became a little anxious.

She knew that her aunt wanted to marry her to the prince as a concubine.

But what she didn't understand was that the prince was standing right here, so why didn't her aunt talk to him directly?

Instead, why do you have to go around the Crown Prince and talk to the Crown Princess about this?

Zhang Qiaoqiao, who was standing by, felt relieved when she heard what the prince said.

As long as the prince is unwilling, her aunt cannot force him no matter how willing she is, and she herself is not willing either.

"Crown Prince, I came here today because I want to tell the Crown Princess something. Now that the Crown Princess is resting, it's just as well to tell you, Crown Prince." Concubine De was unwilling to miss this opportunity and spoke directly.

She thought about this matter and realized that if the Crown Prince agreed to it himself, even if the Crown Princess was unhappy, she could not stop her niece from entering the Eastern Palace.

"Oh?" The prince looked at Concubine De, thinking that Concubine De was really bored. She couldn't take care of her own son, but she was meddling in his affairs.

Chu Haojue was indeed following behind the prince, looking forward to the show. He carefully looked at the women brought by the concubines and found that each of them had her own merits.

However, Chu Haojue noticed that the look in the eyes of the woman brought by Concubine Rao when she looked at the prince was as if she wanted to eat the prince.

Chu Haojue thought that if this woman entered the Eastern Palace, the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess would have a hard time in the future.

"Crown Prince, the Crown Princess is now five months pregnant. You need a few people to serve you. How about my niece?" Concubine De pulled Zhang Qiaoqiao aside and introduced her to the Crown Prince.

Zhang Qiaoqiao's face was full of black lines, feeling very embarrassed.

The prince looked at Zhang Qiaoqiao who was standing beside him.

He looked at Concubine De again.

"Does Defei think this girl is suitable?" The prince did not say yes or no, but asked Defei directly.

"Don't worry, Your Highness. My niece is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. She likes to read books every day. She is very knowledgeable and well-mannered!" Defei praised again hurriedly.

Lin Zhuyue on the side pushed Concubine Rao unwillingly.

I hope Concubine Rao can say a few good words for her.

"Prince, if you are not satisfied with the niece of Concubine De, you can also take a look at my niece Zhuyue. Zhuyue is beautiful and is the perfect match for you, Prince!" Concubine Rao said unwilling to be outdone.

"Your Highness might as well take a look at Suqing. Suqing is kind and gentle, and treats people kindly. I think she will be able to take good care of the Prince and the Princess!" Concubine Shu pulled Qin Suqing aside and said to the Prince.

The prince breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that as a grown man, he couldn't stand being bothered by these concubines, not to mention that the Crown Princess was pregnant. How could she bear it if these people disturbed her like this every day?

"Sisters, instead of staying in your own palaces, you have the leisure to come here and disturb the Crown Princess's rest. If this disturbs the imperial grandson in her belly, I wonder if you sisters can bear the consequences?" The Queen walked in from behind and asked with a dark face.

A few people didn't expect that even the queen would come today, and their faces became even uglier.

"Mother!" The prince quickly stepped forward and supported the queen.

"Greetings, Her Majesty!" Chu Haojue also quickly bowed to the Queen.

"Greetings to Her Majesty the Queen!" Several girls quickly bowed to the Queen.

When they saw the queen coming, some were happy and some were sad.

"Greetings, Sister Queen!" Several concubines looked at the Queen coming and could only bow to her unwillingly.

They all understood that since the Queen was coming today, this plan was likely to fail.

"How come you have become so independent recently? You didn't even tell me about such a big thing?" The Queen looked at the Crown Prince and accused him.

In fact, the Queen was not talking about the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess, but was accusing those concubines of being ignorant and actually plotting against her son.

"Please forgive me, mother. This is my fault!" The prince was actually very upset. He did not expect that the Crown Princess had endured so much silently.

As the husband of the Crown Princess, he did not even protect him from these troubles.

The prince felt very guilty when he thought that the Crown Princess had to deal with these unruly concubines while she was pregnant.

"It's indeed your fault. As the husband of the Crown Princess, you don't even have this little ability. How are you going to protect the Crown Princess and the children from wind and rain in the future?" The Queen accused the Crown Prince.

After all, she had experienced this kind of thing before, and she understood better than anyone that a woman is more vulnerable when she is pregnant.

She also has to deal with women who want to climb into her husband's bed and those who want to force people into their palace.

"Sister Queen, the Crown Princess is pregnant now and can't take better care of the Crown Prince's daily life. It would be better to take a concubine for the Crown Prince!" Concubine De stood up and said with an expression that she was doing the Crown Prince's best.

The queen looked at Concubine De beside her and wondered if the two skinny horses she had given to the eldest prince were not enough.

Otherwise, how would Concubine De have time to jump around in front of her son and daughter-in-law.

"Miss Zhang? Miss Lin? Miss Qin? I heard that you want to be concubines to the prince?" The queen ignored the self-righteous Concubine De, and instead asked several girls one by one by name.

The three people who were named looked at each other.

They didn't expect that today they would not only meet the Crown Prince, but also the Queen.

However, when faced with the Queen's words, the three of them had to think carefully before answering.
