Chapter 544 Special Bathtub
Chapter 544 Special Bathtub
Shen Zhinian never thought that "ambition" was a derogatory word. From the perspective of Concubine Liang, what she did was not wrong, and it was even beautiful.
But... there is only one queen. Since the two of them are rivals, she will naturally be on guard against Concubine Liang.
Shen Zhinian looked at Chen Yangming and asked calmly, "Why did you come to Zhongcui Palace today?"
Although Chen Yangming was promoted by Concubine Liang, he did not show it outside and was very respectful to Shen Zhinian: "In reply to Concubine Xian, I am here to bring you a reward under the order of His Majesty."
"Someone, bring all the things up!"
As the eunuchs behind him responded "yes", many treasures were brought to Shen Zhinian.
Chen Yangming introduced with a smile: "Your Majesty gave the Concubine Xian a emerald brocade feather satin cape, a gold flower inlaid turquoise pendant, a cloisonné enamel lotus pattern hand warmer, a pair of jade drop earrings, and a hollow carved jade hairpin..."
The dazzling array of treasures is dizzying.
The last one was a big item, so Chen Yangming kept it a secret and said with a smile, "The rest are like this, please come and check it out yourself, Madam Xianfei."
Several young eunuchs worked together to lift up the thing covered with red silk.
Everyone's eyes fell on it, with a hint of curiosity in their eyes.
Even Shen Zhinian's curiosity was aroused. With Handan's support, he walked forward with a smile and uncovered the red silk covering it.
The next second——
she:"……"
The palace maids who served closely in Zhongcui Palace all had subtle expressions, and they were having a hard time holding back their laughter.
Ahem... They can't laugh and can't be disrespectful to His Majesty and His Majesty.
Chen Yangming and the others were confused, but he was still introducing it diligently: "Madam Xianfei, this bathtub was ordered by His Majesty himself and specially made by the Ministry of Internal Affairs."
"It is made of the finest wood. Not only is it three times the size of an ordinary bathtub, but it is also inlaid with pearls, gems, etc. It is extremely gorgeous!"
"Although there is no hot spring in Zhongcui Palace, it shows how much His Majesty loves the Concubine Xian!"
Shen Zhinian was obviously thinking of some memories. She was usually calm and composed, but at this moment her expression was indescribable.
enough!
If Chen Yangming continued to talk, she would really lose her temper...
The emperor’s bad taste!
But Shen Zhinian couldn't explain this matter clearly, so he could only wave his hand and said, "Okay, I know."
"Carry it to the bathroom."
Chen Yangming and the young eunuchs from the Imperial Household Department didn't understand. If His Majesty had granted any other concubine such a bathing tub, they would have been overjoyed. But why did Concubine Xian have such a subtle expression?
However, they did not dare to ask, so they could only respectfully answer "yes" and carefully carry the bathtub in.
After this episode, Chen Yangming bent down and said, "If the Concubine Xian has no other instructions, I will take my leave first."
Shen Zhinian waved his hand, indicating Fuqiu to reward them, and then went into the inner room.
The people who served closely knew everything about what happened in the bathroom...
Although they didn't say anything at this time and there was no other expression on their faces, Shen Zhinian still felt embarrassed and ashamed...
Nangong Xuanyu ah Nangong Xuanyu!
She felt itchy just thinking about it!
……
The Concubine Shu went to the Yangxin Palace many times to ask for an audience, but was always turned away by His Majesty. The atmosphere in Yongshou Palace was very depressed these days.
The concubine Shu had a gloomy face all day long, and the palace servants who served her were all very cautious, fearing that they would do something wrong and make the concubine Shu angry, and then they would suffer from it...
The only thing that makes people sigh is that because she has fallen out of favor, Concubine Shu no longer has the confidence to be arrogant and domineering. Even if she doesn't like some palace servants these days, she has not ordered them to be executed.
Because she was afraid that if this matter reached His Majesty's ears, His Majesty would dislike her even more...
Even so, Concubine Shu's hot temper is not something that ordinary palace servants can bear!
Especially when she heard that His Majesty did not see her yesterday, but went to Zhongcui Palace to favor Concubine Xian, and asked the Ministry of Internal Affairs to send countless rewards to her early in the morning, Concubine Shu was furious and had a big tantrum in Yongshou Palace!
"Bitch!"
"Bitch!!"
"Liang Fei is a whore, Xian Fei is also a whore!!! She dared to replace the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs who was promoted by me! She is like a foxy woman, seducing Your Majesty all day long!"
The palace servants were so frightened that they knelt on the ground and dared not say a word.
At this time, the eldest princess came in from outside with Chu Xiyan. She saw the broken porcelain on the ground and the gloomy face of Concubine Shu.
It wasn’t the first time that the eldest princess got angry, but she was still scared, worried, and heartbroken.
She took a few steps forward and came to the side of Concubine Shu, holding her legs and shaking: "Yun'er pays respects to mother!"
"Mother, please don't be unhappy, okay?"
Concubine Shu was reluctant to vent her anger on the eldest princess, but she really couldn't be happy at the moment, and had no intention of coaxing the eldest princess: "Yun'er, mother is fine, you go down and play first."
The eldest princess had a worried look on her little face, but she didn't know what to do.
Chu Xiyan had been standing behind her, and her eyes flashed when she saw this scene.
She had always known that the only person who could execute Concubine Shu was His Majesty, so she had been lurking in Yongshou Palace, trying to secretly collect evidence of Concubine Shu's crimes.
But... although she serves the Grand Princess, there are so many confidants around Concubine Shu who do not trust her.
Chu Xiyan felt that this might be the opportunity she had been waiting for!
If she can help Concubine Shu regain the favor of His Majesty, she will definitely become a trusted person around Concubine Shu.
In this way, it would be much easier for her to collect evidence of Concubine Shu's crimes and then join forces with Concubine Xian to bring her down!
Thinking of this, Chu Xiyan took a step forward and knelt on the ground: "I am willing to share the worries of the Concubine Shu!"
Shufei is only gentle to the eldest princess. When she is in a bad mood, she will not be nice to other people.
He immediately glanced at Chu Xiyan coldly, and said in a chilly tone: "What a big tone!"
"I don't know how a little maid like you can help me share my worries?!"
When the others heard Concubine Shu speak in this tone, they were all trembling with fear, but Chu Xiyan's voice remained calm: "I know that what the queen is thinking about is how to regain the favor of His Majesty."
"I am willing to lend a helping hand to you, Madam!"
Concubine Shu sneered, and a hint of murderous intent flashed across her eyes when she looked at Chu Xiyan: "I like smart people, but I don't like those who are smart!"
"Why do you think you have such ability?!"
Cuizhu scolded from the side: "Xiyan, if you have something to say, just say it!"
"If you can really help the Queen, the Queen will certainly benefit from you. Otherwise, if you act cute and clever here, you will only seek your own death!"
