Chapter 251 Demoting Wife to Concubine 28
"Shenpin is so shameless," Jiang Chunxi walked in from outside at this time, "you said it as if the position of queen is something you disdain to have, so you gave up the position of queen."
"Why are you here?" The emperor looked at Jiang Chunxi and asked:
"Your Majesty, how dare you ask me this?" Jiang Chunxi said angrily while looking at the emperor. "Have you forgotten what you promised me? Is Concubine Shen really that important to you? If so, then there is no need to send her out of the palace. Your Majesty can do whatever you want to her, just like before! Anyway, I am too lazy to worry about you anymore, or I might be pissed off to death by you one day."
"What unlucky words are you saying?" The emperor frowned and said, "Okay, I was wrong, isn't that enough? Stop being angry."
Shen Jingyao looked deeply shocked. She really didn't expect that the emperor would be so humble to Jiang Chunxi. The way they got along was no different from that of an ordinary couple.
"Your Majesty, what's the point of knowing you're wrong now?" Jiang Chunxi was so angry that her eyes turned red. "I knew that Concubine Shen would kill your offspring, and I finally asked you not to see Concubine Shen. Fortunately, God has mercy on me and let the concubines in the harem get pregnant."
"But you, on the other hand, have forgotten the pain after the wound has healed. I have repeatedly warned you not to see Concubine Shen, lest anything happen to the dragon fetus in the pregnant concubine's belly. But you, on the other hand, promised well, but still ignored my words. If there is any problem with the dragon fetus, I will never forgive you."
When the emperor heard what Jiang Chunxi said, he regretted it so much, but he really didn't want to come to see Shen Jingyao, but was forced by the queen mother: "It's not that I want to see Shenpin, but my mother used filial piety to force me to come to see Shenpin for the last time."
When Jiang Chunxi heard what the emperor said, she immediately turned her anger on Shen Jingyao: "Shen Concubine is really capable. She can make the Queen Mother disregard the safety of the heir for you. I can't help but wonder if you cast some kind of evil spell on the Queen Mother. Otherwise, how could the Queen Mother treat you, her niece, more than her own sons and grandsons?"
"If the Imperial Concubine insists on saying this, then I really have nothing to say," Shen Jingyao sneered, "By the way, I have just told the Emperor that you already knew that the Emperor had given you the sterilization drug."
Jiang Chunxi's pupils trembled at first, and then her face turned ugly: "Concubine Shen is still trying to cause trouble. Do you think I can believe you just because you said that? I married the emperor when I was 18 years old. I don't say I know the emperor 100%, but I believe that the emperor will never do such a shameful thing as giving his wife sterilization drugs, because that is simply not something a real man can do."
"Your Majesty," Jiang Chunxi then looked at the emperor nervously, "Do you think what I said is true? Shenpin just lied to me in order to alienate our relationship."
Seeing Jiang Chunxi like this, the emperor was naturally heartbroken, and at the same time he was very annoyed that he almost fell into Shen Jingyao's trap.
"I didn't give you sterilization drugs. I want to have a child of our own more than you do. How could I give you sterilization drugs? I don't want to do such a shameful thing as giving sterilization drugs to my first wife."
Jiang Chunxi was obviously relieved, and a smile immediately appeared on her lips. She looked at Shen Jingyao very proudly: "It seems that Shen Concubine is really going to be disappointed. Your calculations will only be in vain."
Shen Jingyao looked at Jiang Chunxi with some admiration.
This acting skill is truly amazing, and Shen Jingyao has no choice but to admit defeat.
"Since the Imperial Concubine has chosen to believe the Emperor, what else can I say?" Shen Jingyao suddenly had a new idea. She looked at the Emperor and said, "My cousin is so lucky to have a wife like the Imperial Concubine who trusts you wholeheartedly. I originally wanted to alienate the relationship between you and the Imperial Concubine, and maybe I could use you to help me get rid of the Imperial Concubine. But I didn't expect that the Imperial Concubine would not be fooled at all."
"Unlike cousin," Shen Jingyao said sarcastically, "Although cousin said he didn't believe me just now, I can see that cousin took my words to heart. Compared with the trust that the Imperial Concubine has in you, your trust in the Imperial Concubine is a little bit worse."
She wanted to see how far Jiang Chunxi could go, and she must not let her down, otherwise she would probably die with regrets in the underground.
Although Shen Jingyao also hated Jiang Chunxi, the person she hated the most in her heart was still the emperor. It was for this reason that Shen Jingyao changed her mind.
"That's enough," Jiang Chunxi looked at Shen Jingyao impatiently, "I've exposed your lies, but you still refuse to give up and want to alienate the relationship between me and the emperor. Do you really think you are Zhuge Liang in the world?"
Then Jiang Chunxi looked at the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, let's leave quickly! If we stay any longer, I'm afraid I'll vomit blood from anger."
"Why do you have such a bad temper?" The emperor held Jiang Chunxi's hand, "You never think about your own health. You are always so angry. I am really worried that one day you will get yourself into trouble."
"That's all the Emperor's fault," Jiang Chunxi said as she and the Emperor walked out hand in hand. "If the Emperor were less angry with me, would I be so angry that I would do something bad?"
Shen Jingyao stared blankly at the backs of the emperor and Jiang Chunxi as they left, then smiled bitterly: "It's not unfair that I lost! Compared to the Royal Concubine, I am still far behind."
"My queen, are you okay?" Xuan Chun looked at her master with concern.
"When a man is about to die, what else can I do?" Shen Jingyao said self-deprecatingly, "You guys should hurry up and pack up! Once you're done, the three of us, master and servant, can set off together."
As she spoke, Shen Jingyao began to look around the furnishings in the palace. It seemed as if she had never taken a serious look at the palace she lived in.
The emperor and Jiang Chunxi left Chenyou Palace and returned to Jiang Chunxi's Changning Palace together.
When the two men finished washing and were getting ready for bed, they heard the eunuch's panicked voice outside.
At the same time, six pregnant concubines all had miscarriages without any warning, which was very similar to the scene that occurred at the empress's coronation ceremony a few years ago.
Jiang Chunxi's legs went weak in an instant and she almost fell to the ground. If Chenxi hadn't been quick enough to hold her up, she would have really collapsed to the ground.
The Emperor's condition wasn't much better, he was completely stunned.
"Your Majesty, it's bad. Concubine Shen and her servant have set themselves on fire. The Chenyou Palace is on fire." Another eunuch ran in in panic to report:
"That nemesis of Concubine Shen!" Jiang Chunxi shouted in grief and indignation, "She is determined to take the heir with her even at death. How can such a vicious woman be so cruel?"
"Puff!" As soon as the words fell, Jiang Chunxi spat out a mouthful of blood and then fainted.
