Shocked! After rebirth, my princess wants to remarry
Chapter 232: A Group of Concubine Mothers
The next morning, when Gu Qinghe woke up, Xiao Jingheng had already gone to the morning court. His quilt was lying neatly beside the bed, as if to prevent her from falling.
"Yingchun, get out some light clothes. I'm going to go exercise." Gu Qinghe looked at the bright red dress in Yingchun's hand and shook his head. "I'll wear this later."
She knew that Yingchun wanted her to wear a color that none of the concubines could wear to keep the atmosphere calm.
The idea is good, but relying solely on external appearances to convince people is not a solution.
"Yes." Soon, Yingchun brought another simple one.
After washing up, Gu Qinghe came to the place that Xiao Jingheng had asked someone to clean up earlier. It was very spacious, and there was a weapon rack carefully arranged with all kinds of swords, spears, swords and axes waiting for her to choose.
"Princess, the furnishings here are truly complete." Yingchun exclaimed in admiration. She ran to the front of the shelves, looked at each one, and suddenly pointed at a knife. "What kind of knife is this?"
Gu Qinghe took it and pulled out the blade. There was a dagger hidden inside. The dagger within the dagger, also known as the mother-and-child dagger, was a special weapon of the royal guards. The dagger could be used to attack by surprise.
"Put this away and give it to Zhang Wen later." Gu Qinghe ordered.
Seeing the Crown Princess's reaction, Yingchun stopped asking questions and directly answered yes. She stood aside and watched the Crown Princess pick up a silver spear.
After about two quarters of an hour, Gu Qinghe took Yingchun back to bathe and change clothes. He felt that kung fu had to be practiced every day.
After changing into the dress that Yingchun had already prepared, she accompanied eight palace maids, several eunuchs, and the Crown Princess's carriage to the palace in a grand procession.

The ladies in the harem had received the news a few days ago that the Crown Princess would open Fengyi Palace today, pay homage to the late Queen, and then officially take over the affairs of the harem.
At this time, quite a few concubines had gathered at the gate of Fengyi Palace, about twenty people in total, gathered in groups of three or four, chattering non-stop.
Only, Concubine Li has not come yet.
"Hey, do you think Concubine Li will come?" I don't know who started it first, but everyone started talking.
"She should come. After all, she is the Crown Princess. She should come and cooperate, right?" Yun Zhaoyi, who was bulging with a belly, said this, covering her mouth and laughing twice.
"That's hard to say. Yun Zhaoyi can't assume that Concubine Li is as easygoing as you are," said a concubine in a pink skirt. "Everyone knows that the Crown Princess went to the palace to pay her respects the day after her wedding, but was turned away at the Yufu Palace."
"Empress Li is having a headache," said Yun Zhaoyi with a smile, gently stroking her belly.
The pink concubine chuckled, "Empress Li's headache is the strangest thing. It comes too quickly and heals too quickly."
"Empress Liu, you are the one with the big mouth. What are you talking about here?" The voice of Concubine Li suddenly rang out.
The concubine in the pink skirt is the Concubine Liu mentioned by Concubine Li. Although both of them are second-rank concubines, there is still some difference between those with titles and those without, especially since Concubine Li's son is the crown prince.
Everyone immediately shut up and bowed to pay their respects to Concubine Li.
Normally, everyone was wary of Concubine Li, but after hearing that Concubine Li had an unpleasant quarrel with the Crown Princess, everyone's attitude began to soften.
After all, all the cats and dogs in the palace probably know that the Crown Princess is the woman that the Crown Prince insisted on marrying, and she has also been approved by the Empress Dowager and the Emperor, and will be in charge of the largest courtyard in the world.
However, Concubine Li chose to go against the Crown Princess. It seemed that Concubine Li was only against the Crown Princess, but in fact, she was against four people.
These concubines are all considered the Crown Princess's concubine mothers. When you are under someone's roof, you have to bow your head and of course you have to please the Crown Princess.
"Empress Li, I am concerned about you, but I am worried. If I say something that is unpleasant, please be magnanimous and forgive me." Concubine Liu said with a faint smile and bowed.
Concubine Li looked at these women and didn't like any of them. She didn't like Concubine Liu who talked nonsense, she couldn't stand Concubine Yun who was pregnant, and she was also very annoyed with the two talented women who were seventeen or eighteen years old and were recently selected.
He snorted coldly, said nothing, and stood in the crowd, waiting for the Crown Princess to arrive.
"Here she comes, here she comes, the Crown Princess is here." Someone shouted excitedly, and everyone looked over. It was the first time for most people to see the Crown Princess's true face. Previously, they had only heard that she looked like a fairy.
Looking at it today, it makes sense that the prince has to marry her. After all, a man would rather die under a peony flower and be a romantic ghost. The prince is also a man, so it is understandable.
Men can be divided into two types: those who like beautiful women and those who pretend not to like beautiful women.
Gu Qinghe helped Yingchun down with her hand, and the eunuch Zhou Qingxi, the chief eunuch of the Imperial Household Department, also bent over and came close to the Crown Princess, with the keys on his waist rattling.
In fact, the Fengyi Palace has always been guarded by the late queen's personal maid, who cleans it every day. One reason is to comfort the late queen, and the other is that when the emperor misses his deceased wife, he will come and sit for a while so that the palace will not be desolate.
"Zhou Qingxi, go knock on the door and let the ladies in to warm up for a while." After Gu Qinghe finished giving the order, she smiled and greeted the concubines present, "Greetings, ladies and gentlemen."
All the concubines, except Concubine Li, turned slightly to the side.
The reason is very simple: seniority is vulnerable in the face of power.

A few breaths later, two palace maids in their forties ran to the gate of Fengyi Palace and knelt on the ground. "Your servants are here to welcome the Crown Princess. Please forgive me for not coming from such a distance."
"It's okay, I just got here and I'm sorry to bother you mother." Gu Qinghe said, raising his hand. Yingchun and Wangchun stepped forward and helped one up each.
These two middle-aged palace maids were the personal maids of the late Queen. They had known that the Crown Princess would come today and that the concubines would also come to talk. They had heard the chattering at the palace gate, but they did not want to open the door to these women who had made the late Queen angry countless times.
Everyone has their own stance. What they want to do is to be loyal servants of the late queen. Gu Qinghe admired this quite a bit, so even though he saw their thoughts, he didn't say anything.
After a group of concubine mothers followed them into the main hall of Fengyi Palace, Gu Qinghe ordered Yingchun to place the phoenix seal on the main seat on the left, and then he bowed to it before sitting on the secondary seat.
The concubines in the harem had already taken their seats, quietly waiting for the Crown Princess to speak.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I called you all here today so that we can get to know each other. Otherwise, when you have things to deal with in the future, you won't know who to find to do the work." Gu Qinghe smiled and started the conversation.
"Even if we have never seen a person like the Crown Princess, we can still find you accurately, just like just now, we saw you at a glance." The speaker was Yun Zhaoyi, her hand still stroking her belly.
"That's right. I heard from His Majesty a long time ago that he would choose a princess consort for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who is one in a million. Today, I see that he is just as he said." Concubine Liu said with a smile.
Concubine Li wanted to roll her eyes when listening to these women talking, but she kept thinking about what the Crown Princess had said before. If she got on her bad side, she would just be making things difficult for the Crown Prince and delaying his affairs. Maybe she would not be allowed to be the Holy Mother Empress Dowager in the future...
