Chapter 266 The World of Mad Men and Mad Women 2
Empress Xian decided that she would not easily forgive the Emperor no matter what she said this time.
As for the emperor's order, Concubine Xian didn't take it seriously at all. She believed that the emperor would not do anything to her at all, and this was the reason why she was fearless.
It seems that Concubine Xian is very clear in her mind that her confidence comes entirely from the emperor's preference for her, but she is still so hypocritical. It is obvious that there is something unclear between her and Gu Yansen, but she still resents the emperor for not believing her.
In short, women like her are the most disgusting. They are typical people who want everything. They don't want to give anything, but want men to give everything to them.
He coaxed her, praised her, and believed in her without any bottom line. If something was not to her liking, she would feel that the emperor had let her down and hurt her.
"This is impossible," Concubine Cao said in disbelief after hearing what Eunuch Qin said, "How could the emperor demote my sister? This is impossible."
Eunuch Qin sneered, "Does Concubine Cao mean that I am falsely conveying the Emperor's will?"
Then, Eunuch Qin was too lazy to pay attention to Concubine Cao anymore. He looked at Concubine Xian and said, "Concubine Xian, you should kneel down to thank the emperor for his grace. Just now, I passed on the emperor's order, but you didn't kneel down to receive it. Now that I have passed on the emperor's order, if Concubine Xian doesn't kneel down again, then I am afraid that you are dissatisfied with the emperor's order."
Concubine Xian looked at Eunuch Qin with disdain: "Should I be satisfied with the emperor's order? Go back and tell the emperor that I will not forgive him. Don't even think of demoting me to a concubine or sending me to the cold palace. Don't think of humiliating me in this way to force me to bow my head."
As soon as she finished speaking, Concubine Xian turned around and walked into the bedroom, which made Concubine Cao very anxious.
It’s already this late, why is my sister still angry with the emperor?
"Haha!" Eunuch Qin sneered twice, then turned and left.
After Eunuch Qin left, Concubine Cao immediately went in to persuade Concubine Xian: "Sister, I know that you and the emperor have a childhood sweetheart relationship, but after all, the emperor is still the emperor! If you are angry with the emperor like this, what will happen if the emperor is furious..."
"Alright," Empress Xian interrupted Concubine Cao impatiently, "It's impossible for me to bow to the emperor. It's up to the emperor to deal with me as he wants. Even if he wants to execute me, I will give him my life."
"Wow!" Empress Xian broke down and burst into tears again. "How could the emperor be so cruel? How could he be so cruel to Gu Yansen?"
Concubine Cao and Ruoxin looked at each other and saw a deep sense of powerlessness in each other's eyes. It was already such a time, why was Concubine Xian still only caring about Guard Gu?
This made them doubt, does Concubine Xian really not have that kind of feelings towards Guard Gu?
As Eunuch Qin left Concubine Xian's palace, the news that Concubine Xian was demoted to a concubine quickly spread in the harem.
But this did not make the concubines in the harem who hated Concubine Xian happy.
What is there to be happy about? Concubine Xian was sent to the cold palace but she can get out again. Now she has only been demoted to a concubine. I believe that it won't be long before the Emperor will restore Concubine Xian to her former position.
So is this something to be happy about?
You know, this time Concubine Xian was charged with the crime of committing an affair in the harem, and this matter was set in stone, as the emperor saw it with his own eyes, and Concubine Xian was not wronged at all.
If it was any other concubine, she would have been sentenced to death, but when it came to Concubine Xian, she was only demoted in rank.
In short! The concubines in the harem were all cursing at the emperor's partiality in their own palaces, and they all hoped that Concubine Xian would give birth to a bastard for the emperor to see if the emperor would be willing to be a father for Concubine Xian.
The next morning, when the concubines in the harem came to pay their respects to the queen, they began to discuss the matter.
"Do you think Concubine Xian will come to pay her respects today?"
"She will definitely come," the person who spoke sarcastically said, "It's just a demotion. Concubine Xian will not be ashamed of being demoted and not come out to see people. After all, she has always felt that she is the wife in the emperor's heart and never takes her position seriously. She is as calm as a chrysanthemum."
"Haha!" Someone laughed. "If you really want to be as calm as a chrysanthemum, then you should not fight or compete. What Concubine Xian means by being as calm as a chrysanthemum is actually to make the emperor give her everything she wants, so that she can pretend to be as calm as a chrysanthemum to disgust others, right?"
"That's right, that's right," someone curled her lips and said, "We are all concubines, so why is Concubine Xian so noble? She always puts on airs, as if she is not a concubine. The looks from us sisters seem to be saying that we are just concubines. In short, every time I see Concubine Xian's look, I am always disgusted to death."
The concubine's words were recognized by everyone present.
Just as she finished her words, Concubine Xian and Concubine Cao walked in from outside.
Even though Concubine Cao was injured by Concubine Xian yesterday, she still went to Concubine Xian's palace early today to help her wash and dress, and then came to pay respects to the Queen with Concubine Xian.
Concubine Xian came to her seat with an expressionless look and sat down.
"Princess Xian is sitting in the wrong seat!" Concubine Hui spoke up. "You should know that you are no longer Concubine Xian, but Concubine Xian. There is only one character difference between the two, but the status is worlds apart. Concubine Xian still wants to sit in your previous position. Do you not recognize your current status? Or do you not take the emperor's order seriously at all?"
"Or maybe you are deliberately provoking the Queen. After all, this is not the first time that Concubine Xian has done such a thing."
Concubine Cao was anxious to speak for her sister, but she also understood Concubine Hui's character. She knew that if she spoke at this time, it would not only not help her sister, but would only make Concubine Hui make things difficult for her and make things difficult for her sister.
"If Concubine Hui insists on saying so, then I have nothing to say," Concubine Xian said calmly, "It's just a seat. I believe the Queen will not mind it. It's better for Concubine Hui not to interfere."
"You..." Concubine Hui successfully made Concubine Xian angry again.
"What are you sisters talking about?" Just then the queen came out.
"I send my regards to the Queen."
"Concubine, please give your regards to the Queen."
As the queen sat down, everyone stood up and saluted her, but Xianshu was deliberately a beat slow, which made her stand out.
The queen glanced at Concubine Xian coldly, but didn't say anything in the end. Among all the behaviors that made Concubine Xian angry, this one was the least worth mentioning.
"Empress, I was just talking about Concubine Xian's seat. After all, she is no longer a concubine, so it is definitely inappropriate for her to continue sitting in her previous position," Concubine Hui looked at the Empress and said, "Empress, do you think what I said is correct?"
