Liu Yun was making tea. When he heard Gu Qiang's words, he slowly raised his head, "This..." Liu Yun had never been exposed to these things, so naturally he didn't know what to say to Gu Qiang, "Liu Yun I don’t quite understand this, but the princess should believe that the prince has his own destiny and will definitely come back safely.”
"That's true. I believe that the prince will come back safely."
Ever since she became pregnant, Gu Qiang's sense of smell has become extremely sensitive, and she could smell a strange aroma even from this distance.
"This is..." Gu Qiang raised her head and immediately saw a large group of people walking towards this side. Judging from their colorful costumes, they must also be Shen Zhongbai's concubines. To be honest, she was indeed not at all. Not wanting to have anything to do with Shen Zhongbai's concubines, he quickly gave Liu Yun a secret wink, and before they came over, the two of them had better leave.
"When did such a fairy-like beauty come to this palace?" Although Gu Qiang had already seen them and did not want to have any direct conflict with them and wanted to leave, it seemed that it was still a step too late. These people had earlier In one step, I discovered my own existence.
The leader was a relatively plainly dressed woman. Although Gu Qiang felt familiar, she could not remember who this person was. Liu Yun secretly came to Gu Qiang's ear and said, "Master, that is the daughter of the governor of the capital. …”
"Capital Governor?" To be honest, Gu Qiang actually had a little impression of this official, but she didn't expect that the man who wanted to marry her back then even had a daughter of the same age as herself. Fortunately, she didn't get married at that time. Ye's treacherous plan, otherwise, how could he still be sitting here talking to his daughter today
"Hey, sister, don't you know? She is the ninth prince's concubine. The ninth prince has just left for the war. For some reason, the ninth princess entered the palace, hahaha..."
This kind of sarcastic ridicule has been lingering in Gu Qiang's ears. To be honest, she had already expected such a situation, but she didn't expect that she had deliberately avoided these women, but she still couldn't escape. After such a thing, dealing with one Gu Zhihua was enough for me, but now there are so many women here, how can I have the energy to deal with them
"The Ninth Princess is so nice and rude. We are already standing here. Could it be that the Ninth Princess doesn't even say hello?" These women were talking to themselves, which made Gu Qiang feel a little irritated. "If you want to drink, Tea, I do have freshly brewed fine tea here. If you just say something neither salty nor bland in this place, then I have to say goodbye." Gu Qiang really doesn't have the energy to spend all day with them. If a woman with nothing to do in the deep palace engages in verbal quarrels, if she can stay away from her, I will never want to get close to her.
The daughter of the leading Yin of the capital seemed a little dissatisfied with Gu Qiang's indifferent and distant attitude, but it was hard to say anything. After all, Gu Qiang was the ninth princess. According to seniority, they were all Shen Zhongbai's concubines. Call her Gu Qiang. Auntie Huang is also reasonable. If Shen Zhongbai knows that they are deliberately provoking trouble, I am afraid they will be fined and grounded again.
"It seems that all the sisters in the palace have been extremely idle recently. You even formed a group to come to the Imperial Garden to quarrel with the Ninth Princess. It seems that you are idle and have nothing else to do." Shen Qiangwei's voice The recognition was very high. Even if he only heard the voice, Gu Qiang knew exactly who the person was.
The daughter of the governor of the capital seemed to be reluctant to salute Shen Qiangwei. Shen Qiangwei didn't care about the disdain in his eyes at all. After all, Shen Qiangwei still had the final say in the entire harem. Shen Zhongbai All the power was given to Shen Qiangwei, and even if they were dissatisfied, they could not say anything.
"My sister doesn't dare."
"I don't dare. I think there is nothing that An Gui people dare not do, right? Do you know that the emperor is considerate of the fact that the ninth prince is away at war, and the ninth princess is pregnant now, and there is no caring person around to take care of him, so he The idea of bringing the Ninth Princess to the palace is not what An Guiren thinks. I wonder if An Guiren has ever thought about it. If this word reaches the ears of the emperor, what will the emperor think of An Guiren?" Maybe it is. Because she was born outside the palace, Shen Qiangwei didn't show any mercy to these women when she spoke. Those women who were dressed in gorgeous clothes saw that the momentum was not right, and quickly dragged the leading woman away together. If this continues, I'm afraid all of them will be punished by Shen Qiangwei.
As soon as Gu Qiang saw that her crisis was over, she left in no hurry. She turned around and sat down again. She made a cup of tea and tasted it slowly. "The imperial concubine is really the master of this harem. What do you say?" She is so majestic, it seems that I should thank the imperial concubine today."
Although he didn't know why Shen Qiangwei helped him, after all, Gu Qiang saved herself a lot of trouble because of Shen Qiangwei's intervention, so it was okay to say thank you.
"The Ninth Princess must be overthinking it. It's not been a day or two since I established my authority in this harem. Seeing these women not obeying the rules, I naturally want to reprimand them, but I'm not doing this for the sake of the Ninth Princess." Shen Qiangwei was not polite and sat directly opposite Gu Qiang, holding up the tea cup.
Gu Qiang didn't expect Shen Qiangwei to have a good attitude towards him, but to be honest, Shen Qiangwei may not really want to help him, "Anyway, thank you for having Concubine Shen here today, otherwise, I might have to fight with these people I’ve been struggling with this for a long time.”
Shen Qiangwei picked up the tea cup and drank it all, "Gu Zhihua came to see me, but I didn't agree to her. It's not that I don't want you to leave. In the entire palace, maybe the person who wants you to leave is I, but Gu Zhihua doesn't know that the reason why I can always stay with the emperor is because I am obedient."
"So, is it Shen Zhongbai who asked you to come here this time?"
"Ninth Princess, in this palace, it's best not to call the Emperor by his name directly. In short, I didn't do what I did today to help you deliberately, and you don't have to express any gratitude to me. It's you who should Be careful about your own sister, lest you die in her hands one day without knowing it."
"Thank you very much, Concubine Shen."
How could Gu Qiang not know that he should be more careful with Gu Zhihua? Gu Zhihua was the person he could see most clearly in the entire palace. In order to paralyze Gu Linjiang, Shen Zhongbai always put Gu Zhihua in a low position. The low position gave him hope of moving up, but he would always be just a concubine with a lower status than Shen Qiangwei.
Gu Zhihua treated him like that yesterday because he was afraid that he would tell Shen Zhongbai about her life experience. Gu Qiang also understood that telling Gu Linjiang about this matter and telling Shen Zhongbai about it were two completely different results. If Shen Zhongbai found out, this would be the crime of deceiving the emperor, and everyone in his family would be executed. If Gu Linjiang found out, maybe there would be a chance for this matter to turn around.
After Gu Zhihua knew that Gu Qiang was in charge of her, he did not appear in the same place with her again according to what Care Qiang said, but she was still not reassured, so she sent Feixue to follow Gu Qiang secretly. Around Qiang, perhaps it was because Gu Qiang was not very vigilant about the palace. For two days, he did not notice his every move. In fact, he was being watched by others.
Feixue saw Gu Qiang and Shen Qiangwei sitting opposite each other and drinking tea. They didn't dare to get too close, but it could be seen that the two of them seemed to be chatting about something. Feixue didn't dare to delay in any way and hurried He returned to Gu Zhihua's palace and told Gu Zhihua about the incident.
"Are you serious? Did you really see Gu Qiang and Shen Qiangwei sitting together and discussing something?" For some reason, after Gu Zhihua heard the news, he suddenly felt his eyebrows twitching. After a few moments, if Gu Qiang told Shen Qiangwei directly about this matter, wouldn't Shen Qiangwei not tell the emperor
Gu Zhihua suddenly became upset, "Are you sure you read it correctly? Did you see what Gu Qiang and Shen Qiangwei were talking about?"
According to common sense, the last time Gu Qiang attacked, he should have had some conflicts with Shen Qiangwei. She still clearly remembered that Shen Qiangwei deliberately asked Gu Qiang to see the Liu who was being groomed. Concubine, I always thought that Gu Qiang would remember this incident forever. How could this happen
When the two of them got together, could it be that they were discussing how to deal with themselves
Gu Zhihua suddenly felt as if all his psychological defenses had been defeated. He was walking around in the room. Feixue also felt a little scared when he saw her like this, "Mother, don't be anxious first. It’s not certain what the two of them said. The slave was too far away and couldn’t hear clearly. Maybe the two of them were just discussing something else? Madam, please don’t... "
"What do you know!" Gu Zhihua couldn't calm himself down, so he casually threw all the teacups beside him to the ground. The teacups clattered on the ground. Although Feixue was scared, she still covered her hands. Mouth, trying hard not to make any shocked sounds.
"Oops, I'm really in trouble now. That bitch will definitely tell Shen Qiangwei everything about me! If the two of them join forces, then I will be really doomed!" Gu Zhihua couldn't help but She paused and murmured in her mouth, "I knew I shouldn't trust that bitch. She had obviously promised me, but she stabbed me in the back!"
