Chapter 267 The Domineering Princess 20
As early as when the news came that Emperor Lingyue had visited a palace maid, Azhi had already ordered people to keep an eye on her.
Jiangzhu said with confusion on her face, "This woman who looks like the late queen, I always feel that she is a little unusual. I guess someone must have arranged this on purpose."
Of course, someone arranged it on purpose, and it happened on the day of the late queen. It really makes people feel particularly disgusted.
The person who arranged it must be hoping that I would make trouble myself, so that I could arouse the disgust of Emperor Lingyue.
If it were the original body with such impulsive temper, he might really go to Emperor Lingyue to demand an explanation.
But I just don’t let these people get what they want. Do I really think I’m a fortune teller?
The next day, Emperor Lingyue issued an edict to confer a title on a beauty, and specially gave her the title Yuan.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see what was going on with Concubine Yuan. Wasn't she telling everyone in the palace that Concubine Yuan was the substitute for the late queen?
I thought Azhi from Mingzhu Palace would make a big fuss, but unexpectedly the entire Mingzhu Palace was very quiet.
Azhi had no intention of making a noise, which made Queen Zheng a little disappointed.
She originally wanted to use Concubine Yuan to deal with Azhi, but she didn't expect that the other party would not be fooled at all, which made her actions seem a bit redundant.
The first and fifteenth days of the lunar month were the days to pay respects to Queen Zheng. Queen Zheng had a special rule that concubines had to pay respects to her every day, while princesses and princes had to pay respects to her on the first and fifteenth days of the lunar month.
The original body has always been a casual person. Asking her to pay respects to Queen Zheng? Impossible.
Therefore, she always found various excuses not to pay her respects. However, this time a beautiful lady named Yuan came, and Azhi got up early for a rare occasion and asked Jiangzhu to dress her up.
Looking at the flamboyant and beautiful Ah Zhi in the mirror, Jiang Zhu couldn't help but ask Ah Zhi, "Princess, are you going to pay your respects to the Queen today?"
In the past eighteen years, the original body had gone to Kunning Palace to pay respects to Queen Zheng no more than ten times.
Now seeing Azhi preparing to pay respects to Queen Zheng, Jiangzhu was very surprised.
Ah Zhi stroked the golden hairpin on her head and smiled sweetly, "Go ahead. You can't miss this fun event. This princess really wants to take a good look at who this beautiful lady Yuan is. She could actually make my father so obsessed."
Ever since Concubine Yuan appeared in the palace, Emperor Lingyue has been pampering her like a baby, and has been summoning Concubine Yuan to sleep with him for a month.
If it were someone else, Queen Zheng would have started giving advice long ago.
However, she treated Concubine Yuan very well. Because of Concubine Yuan's affairs, Emperor Lingyue's attitude towards Empress Zheng became better.
This is enough to prove that Concubine Yuan is Queen Zheng's person, otherwise how could she watch Concubine Yuan occupy Emperor Lingyue?
"By the way, Princess, your guess is correct. The Crown Prince is feeling better now. This week Linxi went to the Crown Prince to borrow money and has already raised 30,000 taels of gold."
Ah Zhi looked at the red nail polish on her finger and said lazily, "It must have been stolen. This princess just wanted to build a golden toad, which is great for bringing in wealth and treasure."
"I didn't expect that my brother is really rich. He actually took out 30,000 taels of gold so casually. I just don't know how many 30,000 taels of gold he has."
"The origin of these thirty thousand taels of gold really makes this princess very curious."
It had not been long since Yun Ling left the palace to build his mansion, and thirty thousand taels of gold was still a huge sum of money.
He just lent it to Zhou Linxi as soon as he said he would. It seems that Yun Ling really has a lot of money without telling me.
However, Empress Zheng was of humble origin and had no support, and the crown prince’s salary was fixed.
Emperor Lingyue did not give Yun Ling any additional funding, so the 30,000 taels of gold seemed wrong.
There was a gleam in Jiangzhu's eyes as she said, "Princess, don't worry. I will definitely do my job well."
The Kunning Palace is very lively today. Not only the concubines have come, but even the princes and princesses have come to pay their respects to Emperor Lingyue.
As soon as Azhi appeared, the entire Kunning Palace fell silent, and no one dared to offend the most noble princess of Lingyue Kingdom.
Ah Zhi stepped forward and bowed to Queen Zheng, "Meet the Queen."
Everyone present was used to this perfunctory way of greeting.
But an extremely harsh sound was heard.
A woman who was dressed extremely gorgeously and had a very delicate appearance.
She was staring at Ah Zhi and blaming him, "Princess, you are too rude. The Queen is the head of the six palaces. No matter how noble a princess is, she still has to pay proper respect to her elders. How can you be so perfunctory?"
Azhi stood up and slowly walked towards the woman. Looking at the appearance of the person in front of him, Azhi had already guessed that the other party was the new favorite of Emperor Lingyue.
I didn't expect this guy to be so stubborn. He really thought he could challenge me just because I was the favorite concubine.
Ah Zhi stared at Yuan Meiren coldly and raised an eyebrow, "Who are you?"
"I am......"
Without giving Lady Yuan a chance to speak, Ah Zhi interrupted and continued sharply, "Who do you think you are? This princess is here to pay her respects to the queen, do you think it's your turn to butt in? In my opinion, you are the one who is not worthy of being on the stage."
Concubine Yuan's face turned pale with anger. Since she became the new favorite of Emperor Lingyue, she had never suffered such a great injustice.
Queen Zheng just watched quietly as Azhi and Concubine Yuan clashed and fought, while Concubine Wang on the side stared at the arrogant Concubine Yuan thoughtfully.
Queen Zheng is the most rule-abiding person in the palace. When Concubine Yuan and Azhi confronted each other, she didn't say a word. It seems that Concubine Yuan was arranged by Queen Zheng.
Lady Yuan clutched her handkerchief tightly and warned, "Princess, you still need to be careful with your words and actions. No matter how much I am your elder, how can you speak to your elders like this?"
"elder?"
Ah Zhi stepped forward, raised his hand quickly and accurately, and slapped Yuan Meiren so hard that she became silent.
No one expected that Azhi would attack Miss Yuan so quickly.
Looking at the red slap mark on Lady Yuan's face, the entire hall fell silent.
Even Queen Zheng did not expect Azhi to be so bold as to openly beat Emperor Lingyue's new favorite.
Yuan Meiren covered her face and wanted to say something, but Azhi slapped her on the other side of the face again.
This time, Lady Yuan just glared at her and stopped shouting.
Ah Zhi wiped her palm with a handkerchief and said calmly, "You have to recognize your own identity. You are just a beauty. Unless you can become the queen, you have no right to mention the elders in front of this princess."
"Princess."
He actually mentioned letting someone else be the queen in front of her. Queen Zheng was so angry that her chest heaved.
But Ah Zhi just bowed to her and said, "Queen, please don't get angry and get sick. This princess is just helping you teach a lesson to the unruly concubines. Concubines who don't take you seriously should be beaten."
Queen Zheng stared at Azhi without saying a word. Concubine Yuan was her own person, so how could she still ask Azhi to help her teach Concubine Yuan a lesson?
