The imperial concubine is charming and charming, and only seeks power and wealth
Chapter 32: What he said about not being lustful towards women is all fake.
Madam Qian was slightly startled by her gaze, and her movements unconsciously stopped. She asked cautiously, "But what I said was wrong?"
"...No," Jiang Lingyue smiled slightly, retracted her gaze, and said, "Go on."
These days she has been wondering who Nanny Qian belongs to.
On that day, she was promoted to Wanyi and hurriedly moved to another palace. In just half a day, the servants assigned by the inner court and the other concubines were unable to interfere.
And among the three concubines who have the ability to place people.
Concubine Hui and Concubine Shu were obviously not Madam Qian's masters.
Before, Jiang Lingyue guessed that she might be Concubine Xian's person.
Unexpectedly, her master seemed to be... Qi Junyi?
It seems that he is not too defensive against her.
Did he think she was an ignorant girl, so he didn't cover it up carefully?
Jiang Lingyue had no way of knowing, but she was indeed surprised.
After all, she remembered that in her previous life, Qi Junyi rarely interfered in the affairs of the harem. His attention was all on the court. He rarely came to the harem, let alone arranged his own people around the concubines.
However, the person had changed so much after being reborn that this little change didn't seem to be a big deal.
Nanny Qian was right. In the current situation, she really should remain unchanged in the face of ever-changing circumstances.
Qi Junyi has always been a thoughtful person, and every step he takes has his purpose. At the moment, it seems that his purpose does not harm her, so she just needs to wait and see.
The plan to make friends with Concubine Xian was decisively cut off before it was implemented.
This is fine, since she isn't too keen on trying to get close to her fans anyway.
After all, with her current status and favor, there are many concubines of lower rank who want to get close to her.
There were only five main concubines in the harem before, and they already had their own entrenched camps.
As a newly emerged favorite concubine, she had an unstable foundation and no allies in the harem, so she needed manpower.
It just so happened that new beauties from the selection were entering the palace, and Qi Junyi had not even visited a few of these newcomers yet.
Previously, he would invite someone to sleep with him in Chengming Palace every ten days or half a month. Although the chances were smaller, with the example of Concubine Zhao, there was always hope.
But for so long, all the love and favor was on her alone, and no one else could even see the emperor.
Once the heat of this election has died down, it will be even more difficult for these newcomers to come to the fore.
Just as Jiang Lingyue expected, Ning'an Palace was extremely lively in the next few days.
The girls who can participate in the election are all noble ladies carefully cultivated by their own families. They have a strong ability to observe words and expressions, and they know how to advance and retreat appropriately and understand the overall situation.
They are willing to praise you, so they are willing to be humble. Every word they say makes people feel like they are in the spring breeze and feel very comfortable.
Jiang Lingyue knew that their purpose in being friendly with her was just to survive better in this harem.
However, if concubines of low status want to survive better in the harem, they must obtain the protection of their superiors.
Of course it would be best to gain the emperor's favor.
It just so happened that Jiang Lingyue felt that the favor she received was too eye-catching, and she hoped that others could get some of it, so she did not act like a favored concubine and make things difficult for others.
After a few days, everyone became more familiar with each other.
In fact, for Jiang Lingyue, these were all acquaintances from her previous life.
However, after she was promoted to Jieyushi in her previous life, her health became increasingly weak, and she rarely interacted with the concubines in the palace, let alone asked others to curry favor with her and form an alliance with her. Even after she became a noble concubine, she did not have a single person of her own in the harem.
this life……
Jiang Lingyue leaned back in the soft chair, her eyes lazily sliding over the girls below who were as fresh and tender as flower buds. When they fell on Lady Zhao, her eyes froze slightly.
As the first concubine to bear the dragon heir, Concubine Zhao in her previous life did not leave any impression on Jiang Lingyue.
Because she died too early, so early that Jiang Lingyue was still a talented person when she died.
In this life, she visited him almost every day, and Jiang Lingyue became more familiar with her.
This was a quiet girl, even a year younger than her. She was gentle and taciturn. If no one talked to her, she could sit there in silence for a whole day.
It's only been two months since I was pregnant, and the baby hasn't settled down yet. Logically, I should be staying in my bedroom to take care of the baby...
Jiang Lingyue knew clearly what Concubine Zhao's intention was in making friends with her.
Maybe he really wanted to find a loving adoptive mother for his unborn child.
Although the baby in her belly was the first heir to the throne, and was precious, the emperor was still young and in the prime of his life. All the women in the harem were looking forward to giving birth to a child for him, and in the future there would be a second, third, and even countless children.
The premise that a mother is honored by her son is that princes are rare, so they are naturally precious. However, in most cases in the harem, it is actually the son who is honored by his mother.
Being raised by a favorite concubine, not to mention other benefits, just the fact that he has more opportunities to show up in front of the emperor is conducive to cultivating the relationship between father and son.
It's understandable that Lady Zhao wants to find a favored adoptive mother for her child, but...
Thinking about the man in Shaoguang Palace who had been coveting the child in Concubine Zhao's belly for a long time, and yet she came to her every day, fearing that others didn't know her intentions, Jiang Lingyue felt a headache again.
Just as she raised her hand to rub her brow, Li Cairen, who was sitting below her, asked with concern, "Does your Majesty have a headache?"
"It's nothing," Jiang Lingyue waved her hand, "I just haven't had enough rest these past two days."
Li Cairen disagreed and said angrily, "When it comes to your Majesty's health, even the smallest matter is a big deal, not to mention that poor sleep can easily lead to excessive liver fire, and once liver qi is blocked..."
"Stop!" Jiang Lingyue's head hurt even more. "I can't stand being naggard. Stop talking."
Li Cairen looked embarrassed and stopped talking.
Seeing this, the other concubines couldn't help but cover their lips and laugh.
They were all girls who grew up in wealthy families and were only sixteen or seventeen years old. They had not even served the emperor in bed yet. Even if they had some little thoughts, they were still very immature.
Compared to Concubine Hui and the others, Jiang Lingyue felt much more relaxed when interacting with these girls.
Suddenly, Lady Zhao, who had been silent for a long time, said, "I have a recipe in my home that can help you sleep. If your Majesty doesn't mind, I would like to give it to you."
"Sister Zhao is thoughtful." Jiang Lingyue nodded indifferently.
In fact, it wasn't that she couldn't sleep, she was just too exhausted to have time to sleep.
...Come to think of it, she hasn't had breakfast for almost half a month.
Jiang Lingyue never thought that one day she would be afraid of the dark.
The talk of not being greedy for women, being calm and self-controlled, dignified and upright, and as pure as jade is all fake.
The real reason was the indulgence in recent days, and she could no longer bear it.
Jiang Lingyue glanced at the sky. The days were long and the nights were short in summer, but the sun was already setting, and the sunset glow dyed half the sky red. It was almost time for dinner, and her heart began to pound.
The people below were paying close attention to her actions. When they saw her looking outside the hall, they thought she was reminding everyone of the time, so they stood up tactfully and wanted to say goodbye and leave.
It has long been no secret in the harem that His Majesty comes to Ning'an Palace for dinner every day.
If they stayed, they might be able to see His Majesty, but they would probably offend the Concubine Jieyu.
They knew the difference between trying to win the emperor's favor with their beauty and offending the favorite concubine, and which was more serious.
They were so sensible of the current situation, but Jiang Lingyue said, "No rush."
As she spoke, she looked at Concubine Wei beside her and said with a smile, "Since I was in my boudoir, I have heard that you have amazing dancing skills. I wonder if you would be willing to perform a dance for me."
Jiang Lingyue never thought of monopolizing the emperor's favor.
The harem is full of flowers, and the emperor treats all of them with favor. With the guilt of her past life and her identity as the substitute of the emperor's lover, she becomes a unique existence, ensuring her long-lasting favor. This is the situation that Jiang Lingyue wants to see.
Now these concubines who have not yet slept with her want to rely on her. They come to Ning'an Palace every day to show their loyalty to her and make her feel comfortable physically and mentally. It is time to let them taste some sweetness.
This Concubine Wei had a particularly outstanding figure among all the concubines, and her face was as beautiful as a flower. Most importantly, Jiang Lingyue remembered that this Concubine Wei had been favored in her previous life.
After all, she had served in the emperor's bed, so she was not unknown to Qi Junyi. Compared with others, she was better off.
Lady Wei, who was suddenly called, was stunned at first, but then she couldn't hide her joy and agreed.
His Majesty will arrive at any time at this time. Asking her to dance at this time is not because Concubine Jieyu wants to see it, but clearly because she wants His Majesty to see it.
The queen is trying to promote herself.
After coming to this conclusion, Concubine Wei's eyes were filled with gratitude, and she bowed respectfully: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Li Cairen beside her also hurriedly stood up and offered herself, "Dancing without music is too bland. I am willing to accompany Lady Wei in the music."
It was rare for her to be so ambitious, Jiang Lingyue waved her hand and agreed.
