Shocked! After rebirth, my princess wants to remarry

Concubine Li unconsciously replied "Yes." Then she took two steps back and said nothing more.

After a while, I finally realized why the Crown Princess treated me like this. Even the little respect she had shown me a few days ago was almost gone.

Gu Qinghe scolded Concubine Li, then looked at Concubine Wu, who was smiling calmly. "Since we are good sisters, why didn't you intervene after witnessing such a thing? Why did you keep smiling while watching Concubine Yun bleed and cry?"

When Lady Wu heard this, the smile on her face froze. She smiled to show her inner peace and to indicate that this matter had nothing to do with her.

Unexpectedly, the Crown Princess would ask about her expression. It turned out that a woman who could attract the Crown Prince's attention was indeed attentive and extraordinary.

"I heard from the imperial physician that Concubine Yun would be fine if she took good care of her pregnancy. I felt relieved, and my face relaxed too." Concubine Wu quickly found the right words, and after she finished speaking, she smiled on purpose.

In Gu Qinghe's opinion, this smile was a provocation to him. This beauty who had never existed in his previous life was really interesting. Was he sure that he didn't dare to confront her because of the Grand Princess's Mansion behind her?

She also chuckled twice, and just as she was about to speak, she heard the Queen Mother's voice, "Concubine Wu, the child in Yun Zhaoyi's belly, whether it's a prince or a princess, is your master. The master is not completely out of danger yet, and you're laughing?"

Upon hearing this, Concubine Wu quickly knelt on the ground and said, "Your Majesty the Queen Mother, please understand. I am still young and cannot control myself well."

The Empress Dowager snorted and said nothing more.

Concubine Wu knelt there, watching the Crown Princess walk step by step to stand before her. "Concubine Wu, please get up quickly. You are still young. How could the Empress Dowager bear to let you kneel like this?"

"Thank you, Crown Princess." Lady Wu bit her lower lip and stood up. Then she heard Zhang Jinbao coming back. "Crown Princess, I have asked people to write down the words of the maids one by one."

Yingchun took the three pieces of paper and handed them to the Crown Princess. After reading them, Gu Qinghe found the crux of the problem.

"Before the banquet began, Concubine Wu's mother spoke to Concubine Li, who embarrassed her. During the banquet, Concubine Wu again talked to Concubine Li about the baby in Concubine Yun's belly." Gu Qinghe watched and summarized it for the Empress Dowager.

The Empress Dowager listened and glanced at Concubine Wu. "And then, Concubine Li, did you go to speak to Concubine Yun?"

"Yes," Concubine Li replied in a low voice, "Your Majesty, I really didn't mean to do that. It was just that Yun Zhaoyi was speaking wildly and was about to leave after she finished her words. I was so angry that I tried to stop her. I definitely didn't touch her."

Concubine Li spoke her heart out in one breath, but the Empress Dowager and the Crown Princess didn't react at all, just nodded slightly.

"Princess, I'm tired now." The Queen Mother said lightly.

The Empress Dowager just wanted to get this dirty business over with as soon as possible. As for Concubine Wu's background, she didn't care. So what if she was the Grand Princess? She was just the Emperor's aunt, while she was the Emperor's biological mother.

Who is she supporting? Just a beautiful woman...

Needless to say, Concubine Li's performance was outstanding. She was able to live in the palace for so many years thanks to the fact that she gave birth to the prince...

Gu Qinghe knew that she had to come to a conclusion. "Lady Wu, this matter was caused by your instigation. Concubine Li is also responsible."

Concubine Wu's eyes widened. The Crown Princess actually put the biggest hat on her head. Isn't this protecting Concubine Li?

"Crown Princess, I don't accept this." Concubine Wu said, "There's always been a conflict between the two of them. Someone even saw them arguing with each other before."

"You can go find Father again." Gu Qinghe replied with a faint smile, "I'm just discussing the matter at hand. I'm only talking about the incident where Concubine Yun saw blood today."

At this time, Concubine Li was looking at Concubine Wu with resentment. It was really hard to guard against her.

"I don't have the right to demote you, so I'll ask you two ladies to reflect on your mistakes behind closed doors, copy Buddhist scriptures, calm your minds, and gain wisdom," Gu Qinghe said. "Send half a year's fine to Consort Yun. Pregnancy supplements cost a lot of money."

Concubine Li felt that when the Crown Princess talked about "opening wisdom", she was looking at her. Was she a very stupid person in her eyes?

However, it sounds like the Crown Princess thinks this matter should be abdicated. How bold!

"Grandmother, how about we deal with it this way first?" Gu Qinghe leaned over and asked.

The Empress Dowager nodded, and the Crown Princess did what she could. "Alright, just be anxious for now. If you're not convinced, go and cry to the Emperor."

After saying that, the Empress Dowager helped Nanny Lin to stand up, "Crown Princess, let's go too."

Concubine Wu watched the Empress Dowager and the Crown Princess walk away before she stood up and slapped her maid. "Are you telling everyone everything?"

"My beauty, I didn't say anything. It was the eunuch beside the Crown Princess who came to confront her according to the time. If it doesn't match, we have to repeat it until it matches." The maid felt aggrieved.

There is no possibility of collusion, so naturally only if everyone tells the truth can it be consistent.

Ping'er walked to Concubine Li's side and supported her arm, "Your Majesty, let's go back."

In Ping'er's opinion, the Crown Princess did not directly ask Concubine Li about her responsibilities, which meant that she was protecting Concubine Li, not to mention bothering to ask Concubine Wu.

Although the Crown Princess is young, she is calm and decisive in her decisions, and is not afraid of offending others. Perhaps she is the kind of person who is born to be the master?

Gu Qinghe first accompanied the Empress Dowager back to Yongshou Palace. After the Empress Dowager was seated, she knelt on the ground and apologized, "Please forgive me, Grandmother. I failed to host today's banquet and almost caused my father to lose a child."

The Empress Dowager personally helped the Crown Princess to her feet. "Nothing is foolproof. You did a great job. You were decisive and impartial."

Gu Qinghe heard this and said, "Favoritism? Concubine Li?"

"Fortunately, nothing serious happened. But even if something did happen, it's not your fault. Masters all have their own servants. If you don't take good care of your master, the first ones to be beaten and killed will be the servants around them."

"If you go to a banquet and quarrel with others, you can't blame the host." The Queen Mother said with a faint smile.

"Thank you, Grandmother. I will pay more attention in the future."

The Queen Mother hummed softly, "Try your best. The harem is full of endless fighting. As long as there are many people, it is inevitable."

"Yes, granddaughter-in-law has learned a lesson." Gu Qinghe nodded.

The Queen Mother laughed when she heard this. "What do you want to learn? You are the only one who has the crown prince. Who do you want to deal with?"
