Royal daughter-in-law makes money

Chapter 200

As soon as the Crown Princess came out, she heard the Queen ask the three women whether they were willing to be the Crown Prince's concubines?

The Crown Princess clenched her fists, fearing that those women would become the Crown Prince's concubines, and also worried that the Queen would think she was not magnanimous enough.

"Tell the Empress whatever you think!" Defei pushed Zhang Qiaoqiao, who was still in a daze, and said.

Concubine De thought that Zhang Qiaoqiao would definitely be willing to be the prince's concubine. After all, this was the best marriage Zhang Qiaoqiao could get.

"Aunt, what should I say?" Zhang Qiaoqiao was still a little scared. After all, the most important noble person she had ever met was probably her aunt. Now she suddenly met the Queen Mother, and she was nervous and excited.

"Your Majesty, I am willing to be the Crown Prince's concubine!"

Before Zhang Qiaoqiao could stand up and answer the Queen, Lin Zhuyue couldn't wait to kneel down in front of the Queen and speak.

"Your Majesty, the Queen, will make the decision!" Qin Suqing knelt down in front of the Queen and said after seeing Lin Zhuyue finish speaking.

The queen did not answer the two of them, but instead looked at Zhang Qiaoqiao who was still hesitating.

"Miss Zhang, what about you?" asked the queen.

The Crown Princess outside the door clenched her fists and felt very nervous.

She wondered if after today, there would be one more woman in the East Palace.

Maybe there is more than one, after all, there are two spots for the Crown Prince's concubines.

"Empress, no matter what I said, you and the Crown Prince will not blame me and my father?" Zhang Qiaoqiao asked uncertainly.

"No matter what you said today, I and the prince will not blame you, nor will we blame your father." The queen thought that this girl might not be happy to be her son's concubine.

However, if this girl really dared to say that she was unhappy, she would actually think more highly of her.

Chu Haojue also looked at Concubine De in surprise, wondering if there really was such a conscious girl in their Zhang family?

Everyone turned their eyes to Zhang Qiaoqiao, and even Concubine De beside her couldn't understand what her niece wanted to say.

"In reply to the Queen, I do not want to marry the Crown Prince as a concubine!" Zhang Qiaoqiao knelt down and said without thinking.

"What nonsense are you talking about!" When Concubine De heard what Zhang Qiaoqiao said, her face turned black with anger.

She was kind enough to arrange it for her, but this person was so ungrateful that he said he was unwilling to do it.

As long as the Queen agrees today, she might be able to become the Crown Prince's concubine. What a good marriage this would be.

Besides, with her helping her son with things in the East Palace in the future, how much trouble could she save?

Even if I can't help her son, at least I can get some benefits for him.

But that damn Zhang Qiaoqiao actually said she didn't want to.

If she doesn't want to, what about her son?

"Defei, since the girl doesn't want to do it, why do you force her?" The Queen did look at Zhang Qiaoqiao with admiration. She didn't expect that there were still sober girls in this day and age.

Thinking of this, the queen felt that she could find a good family for the little girl from the Zhang family.

"Empress, it is said that children's marriage is decided by their parents and the matchmaker. I have asked my brother and sister-in-law for their opinions on this matter!" Defei said quickly.

"Aunt, you asked my mother and me to come to the palace today, but you didn't tell us what was going on!" Zhang Qiaoqiao said again to sabotage her.

Her parents didn't want her to marry into the palace.

Zhang Qiaoqiao thought that her aunt wanted to marry her into the Eastern Palace, but she didn't ask them whether they were willing or not.

When the Queen and the Crown Prince saw this, they understood that this was probably just Defei's wishful thinking.

The prince knew in his heart that the girl from the Zhang family did not want to be his concubine willingly, but was tricked into the palace by Concubine De.

The Crown Princess outside the door breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this. Although there were two other women here who were willing to be the Crown Prince's concubines, there was always one less opponent.

"What do you think about this matter, Prince?" The queen looked at Lin Zhuyue below, then looked at Qin Suqing, and then asked the prince beside her.

"Mother, I don't want to take a concubine!" The prince didn't say much, but just spoke frankly.

He doesn't want to take any concubine. Don't think he doesn't know how tired his father is from dealing with all the concubines every day.

Defei wanted to say something, but then she remembered that her niece had already refused to be the prince's concubine, so it would be useless for her to say anything.

"Defei, Shufei and Rao Guifei are really thoughtful!" The Queen looked at them and said helplessly.

"The prince is the future crown prince, and we just want to help him share his worries!" Concubine Rao said quickly, but she was also very nervous. If the prince was unwilling to take a concubine, then it was hard to say whether this matter could be accomplished.

"Empress, I saw that the Crown Princess was pregnant and was worried that she wouldn't be able to take good care of the Crown Prince, so I thought of doing something for him." Concubine Shu said quickly.

"Please punish me, Your Majesty. I have violated the rules and taken over your robes!" Defei could only say reluctantly.

"Mother, how come you have time to come to the Eastern Palace today?" The Crown Princess' voice was heard outside the house.

The Crown Princess knew that she couldn't hide outside forever, she still had to come out and face these things. Besides, the Crown Prince had just said that he was unwilling to take a concubine, which made his attitude clear.

She also knew the prince's backyard, and she would definitely not be the only princess in the future.

Moreover, the royal family had an ancestral rule that after she became pregnant, a suitable woman should be arranged for the prince to enter the Eastern Palace.

She had always known about this, but had never done anything about it.

First, she herself didn't want to.

After all, who wants to share their husband with others?

Second, since neither the Emperor nor the Empress mentioned this matter, she pretended not to know this rule.

But she also knew that if the prince ascended the throne as emperor one day, she would definitely have to face many women.

"Why don't you rest for a while? Are we disturbing you?" The Queen asked the thin Crown Princess with concern.

Seeing that the Crown Princess looked unhappy, he thought to himself that these blind people must be bothering her.

"Mother, I woke up from my sleep and heard the servants say you were coming. They are so mean. They should have woken me up when you came." The Crown Princess said quickly.

"Okay, I told them not to wake you up. Now that you are pregnant, you can rest for a while, which will be better for you and the baby!" Then he patted the Crown Princess's hand and comforted her.

The Crown Princess, who was originally in a complicated mood, calmed down unusually. She knew that what she had to do now was to wait for the Queen and the Crown Prince to bring this matter to an end.

The Crown Princess sat obediently beside the Queen with her head lowered. She did not look at the concubines, nor did she salute them.

"Greetings, Crown Princess!" Zhang Qiaoqiao first bowed to the Crown Princess, then stood aside obediently without saying anything.

The Crown Princess was stunned at first, then she remembered that this was the girl who had just said that she didn't want to marry the Crown Prince.

The Crown Princess nodded and said nothing.

When the other two saw Zhang Qiaoqiao bowing to the Crown Princess, they could only bow to her reluctantly as well.
