Marrying Wife and Concubine Together: After Rebirth, I Remarried the Scumbag's Father on the Sp

Zhan Yan frowned and asked, "Empress, did you not understand what I just said? I said that the Marquis' Mansion does not need anyone to take care of the chores. How many times do you want me to repeat it?"

The queen widened her eyes in shock. Normally, Zhan Yan was quite kind to her, but now, he looked like he was going to call her to account!

He, he is so brave!

She immediately scolded him, "Zhan Yan, how can you not know how to appreciate kindness? I added people to your mansion for your own good. How can such a huge mansion be left empty? Besides, Cheng Lingzhi, as your concubine, can also help you expand your Zhan family. Why can't you understand this?"

Zhan Yan curled up the corners of his lips in sarcasm. No wonder Wanwan became estranged from the queen. Now it seems that she really has evil intentions.

It’s a pity that Wanwan’s sincerity was wasted. The queen really didn’t deserve it.

He calmly asked, "May I ask, Her Majesty, does Wanwan know that you are planning to send me a concubine?"

When the queen heard his softened tone, she thought he must have compromised.

After all, what man doesn't like young women?

Cheng Lingzhi is young and has a lively and smart appearance, so it is impossible for Zhan Yan to look down on her.

He must have refused on purpose just now, just to pretend!

Thinking of this, the Queen narrowed her eyes and smiled, "Of course Wanwan knows. She also said that she must let me choose an extremely outstanding noblewoman for you. That's why I found Miss Cheng. I guarantee you will be satisfied!"

Zhan Yan didn't expect that Wanwan also knew about it, but he didn't believe that Wanwan would agree to him marrying a concubine.

Even if he really said that, he would definitely be the one to refuse.

He immediately spoke, "Thank you for your kindness, Queen, but I really have no intention of marrying a concubine. As for this Miss Cheng, if she is really as good as you say, why not let her stay in the palace to serve the Emperor and help you share your worries?"

The queen's face turned ashen with anger. How dare Zhan Yan reject her mercilessly?

She spoke subconsciously: "Zhan Yan, you should know that I am the queen of the current dynasty. As a subject, you must accept the concubine I send you. Otherwise, it would be disrespectful to the royal family!"

Zhan Yan narrowed his eyes. Was she going to use her status as queen to pressure him?

The emperor wants to watch the show again?

Emperor Sheng'an, who was sitting beside the empress, shuddered at his dissatisfied look. He sullenly rebuked, "Empress, you're going too far. Since Marquis Zhan Yi doesn't want you to give him a concubine, why are you using your status to force him to do anything?"

The Queen complained, "Your Majesty, I am doing this for his own good. Isn't it a wonderful thing to have a gentle and virtuous girl to help him look after the Marquis's residence and share the responsibilities of the harem with Wanwan?"

Emperor Sheng An frowned and glared at her: "You have to choose someone he likes for his own good. If he doesn't like her, and you insist on forcing her on me, it won't be a good thing at all. I'm afraid it will only create a rift between him and me!"

Zhan Yan immediately spoke up, "Your Majesty is right. However, apart from Wanwan, I don't like any other woman in this world. Please, Your Majesty, please stop randomly matching people up with each other, as this will hurt both you and others!"

The Queen was immediately filled with anger and resentment. She complained, "Zhan Yan, are you threatening me?"

Zhan Yan bowed and said, "I dare not. If there is nothing else, I will take my leave!"

After saying this, he turned around and left quickly without paying attention to the emperor and empress's reactions.

Emperor Sheng An couldn't help but sneer at the Empress: "Now you're satisfied, and Zhan Yan has made me resentful of him too. Are you going to give him a concubine?"

The Queen explained with a guilty conscience: "Your Majesty, I just hope someone can share his worries. I really mean well!"

Emperor Sheng An said coldly: "You know better than anyone what you are thinking. I am tired, please leave!"

The queen felt ashamed, but she had no choice but to leave quickly with Cheng Lingzhi.

When she returned to Weiyang Palace, she swept all the tea bowls on the table to the ground.

She yelled angrily, "Zhan Yan, you don't know the current situation. I'm offering you a concubine, how can you refuse? What qualifications do you have to refuse?"

Cheng Lingzhi huddled beside him trembling with fear, not daring to say a word.

The queen took a few quick breaths before gradually calming down.

She turned to look at Cheng Lingzhi: "Now you have seen that I wanted to give you to Zhan Yan as his concubine, but he refused!"

Cheng Lingzhi is not a fool. She has seen the queen in her most miserable state, so she can only follow her until death.

She ignored the debris on the ground and knelt down with a plop, saying, "Your Highness, I am willing to serve you like a slave. As long as I can help you, I am not afraid of going through fire and water!"

The Queen nodded in satisfaction. She quickly stepped forward and helped Cheng Lingzhi up. "There are debris on the ground. Why are you kneeling? Are your knees injured?"

She spoke cautiously, "It's no problem. I have thick skin and flesh. When I was in the mansion, I was taught the rules by the mistress for a long time, so my knees are covered with calluses. It doesn't hurt at all!"

The queen sighed helplessly, "You are also unfortunate. I originally thought that I could find a good family for you, but I didn't expect that he would reject you. He is blind and can't see your obedience and charm, Miss Cheng!"

Cheng Lingzhi said anxiously, "Your Majesty, there's no need to worry about me. Since Marquis Zhan Yi didn't like me, then I must not be good enough!"

The Queen said with a complicated expression: "As long as Lin Yiwan is around, Zhan Yan will not see the good in any woman!"

Cheng Lingzhi was immediately horrified. What did the Queen mean by this? Could it be that she wanted Lin Yiwan's life?

She didn't dare to think further!

The Queen spoke to herself, "Lingzhi, before entering the palace, you should have heard that my Second Prince was burned. If Lin Yiwan hadn't chosen to stay with the Princess and her daughter, he wouldn't have been injured so badly!"

Cheng Lingzhi softly consoled her, "Don't worry, Queen. The Second Prince is blessed with a long life and will surely recover!"

The Queen gave a bitter smile: "How can my Yu'er be alright? His face has been burned. From now on, he will be an ugly freak, and he will never have a chance to be crowned the emperor again!"

Cheng Lingzhi bit her lip hard. Even though she was eloquent, she didn't know how to persuade the queen.

I can only remain silent!

The Queen quickly spoke up again: "In fact, I know very well in my heart that even if the Emperor doesn't say it, in his heart, he also blames her a little, so this evil person has to be done by me!"

There was a fierce struggle in Cheng Lingzhi's eyes. This was her chance to become a superior person. As long as she worked for the Queen, why would she have to worry about not being able to gain a foothold in the capital?

More importantly, she really wants to marry Zhan Yan!

The man was so charming that every gesture he made attracted him deeply.
