Steal my marriage? Turn around and marry the tyrant to take the throne

Chapter 160 Going to the Qianqing Palace for a Banquet

"How can I vent my hatred if that bitch Shen Zhinian doesn't die?!"

"And if I can't get rid of her, what use am I to the Queen?"

Liu Ruyan certainly understood that His Majesty only spared her because of the "child" in her belly. If this "child" was gone, she would have nothing to rely on.

But she had been forced into a desperate situation by Shen Zhinian. If the Queen also abandoned her, she would never be able to turn things around in the harem.

Therefore, she must complete this task beautifully!

As long as she is willing to be the knife in the hands of the Queen, the Queen will definitely find an opportunity to help her revive!

Xun You saw that he couldn't persuade Liu Ruyan, and he didn't know whether he should be glad or sad.

She took a deep breath and suppressed the complicated emotions in her heart: "The hair is done, young lady, we can go now."

Out of consideration for the relationship between master and servant, and because they grew up together, she gave the young lady one last chance, but the young lady herself was unwilling to do so.

So, you can’t blame her for being cruel!

……

Qianqing Palace.

The huge palace was decorated with lights and colors today, filled with a festive atmosphere.

Many imperial concubines and royal relatives had arrived, and led by palace maids, they walked to their seats and sat down. Although there were many people in the hall, it seemed to be in good order.

The Duke Zhenguo Mansion and the Duke Dingguo Mansion have produced many empresses and concubines, and they have long had an inseparable relationship with the royal family. Naturally, they are also within the scope of invitations, just like the royal family.

Shen Zhinian and Sun Changzai lived together in Zhongcui Palace, and they went there together.

Sun Changzai reminded in a gentle voice: "Sister Rou, be careful of the threshold."

She is now accompanying Sister Rou and is more attentive than she is when serving His Majesty.

After all, His Majesty has three thousand beauties in the harem, and the number of times she is picked every month is few and far between. But Sister Rou is different. If there is any good thing, Sister Rou will really share it with her!

Following Sister Rou, her food, clothing and other daily necessities are much better than before!

Not to mention that His Majesty often went to Tingyu Pavilion, so she could also benefit from Sister Rou's help and see His Majesty. Even if His Majesty didn't turn over her name card, they would still be very friendly when they met, and the palace people were much more polite to her than before.

Don't think she doesn't know. Many concubines in the harem say that she is lucky and hope that she can move out of Lanyuexuan so that they can move in.

Dreaming!

She has established a friendship with Sister Rou since she entered the palace. Can anyone else compare to her?

As for the fact that she approached Sister Rou with the intention of using her? That's not true! Anyone who dares to say that is slandering her!

Shen Zhinian smiled and nodded to Sun Changzai: "Thank you, Sister Sun, for your reminder."

Sun Changzai laughed, her voice as clear and sweet as a mountain spring: "Sister Rou, you are my biological sister, why are you being so polite to me?"

"I won't bother you anymore. I'll go back to my seat first."

Shen Zhinian couldn't help laughing: "Go ahead."

From the beginning, she knew Sun Changzai's purpose in approaching her, and he just wanted to use him as a pawn.

But after some contact, Shen Zhinian found that although Sun Changzai had some small thoughts, her nature was not bad. After all, which woman in the harem did not want to compete for favor, and it was understandable to have some small thoughts.

Shen Zhinian thought that she was a sophisticated egoist, not a good person, and certainly would not do anything that would not benefit her. Every time she sent someone to Lanyuexuan, it was just to win people's hearts.

But Sun Changzai was deeply moved, saying that she was sold to the prince's palace by her parents when she was young, and later became the prince's concubine by mistake. She only served the prince a few times and was forgotten.

After the prince became His Majesty, he bestowed titles on the six palaces, but only gave her the position of a concubine because she was an old servant in the palace.

She had been trying to climb up and live a better life, but she failed every time. It was not until she met Shen Zhinian that her life took a turn.

No one had ever treated her as well as Shen Zhinian. She remembered that she had an older sister at home. If she had not been sold by her parents, her sister would have treated her so well too...

Shen Zhinian has always been indifferent to emotions, and her deep affection for Nangong Xuanyu is all fake. When she encounters difficulties, she knows how to solve them. But Sun Changzai sticks to her like this and tells her the truth from the bottom of his heart, which makes Shen Zhinian feel embarrassed and at a loss as to what to do...

So, she just let Concubine Sun go.

Anyway, it’s not a bad thing that the relationship between allies is closer.

However, even if they are close allies, Shen Zhinian will not let his guard down!

"Noble Lady Rou, please come this way." A little palace maid came forward to lead the way for Shen Zhinian.

Everyone in the palace knows that she is the favorite concubine, so Shen Zhinian's position is naturally the most advanced among the noble ladies.

Soon, Concubine Kang also arrived.

Shen Zhinian stood up and the two greeted each other.

Since Concubine Kang had a title, she should have sat next to her, but there was a table between them.

Shen Zhinian asked: "Whose position is in the middle?"

The little palace maid said, "My Lady Rou, this is the seat for My Lady Zhou."

"Noble Lady Kang has a title, but Noble Lady Zhou does not. Why is Noble Lady Zhou ranked ahead of Noble Lady Kang?"

The little palace maid lowered her head even lower, and said in fear: "The seats for the palace banquet are arranged by the people above, and I don't know clearly..."

Shen Zhinian had no intention of embarrassing a little palace maid, so she waved her hand and said, "I understand, go ahead and do your work."

"Yes."

After sitting down, Concubine Kang sighed, "Concubine Zhou is pregnant with the heir to the throne, so her body is naturally precious. She also has the support of the Imperial Concubine. Of course, those servants who follow the wind will rush to please her."

"Fortunately, they had some sense and didn't put Concubine Zhou in front of Sister Rou, otherwise, I would have been in big trouble!"

Shen Zhinian comforted her, "Sister Kang, don't mind it, we'll see tomorrow."

Everyone in the palace knew that Concubine Liu wanted the child in Concubine Zhou's belly. If she gave birth to a daughter, it would be fine. Concubine Liu already had an eldest princess, and she would not raise another princess under her knees.

If a prince was born... would Concubine Liu not leave the mother to keep the child?

Even if she still had a last bit of reluctance, the Empress Dowager of the Cining Palace, who seemed to be indifferent to worldly affairs, would never allow Concubine Zhou to live! Otherwise, how could the prince be raised well with his biological mother still alive?

But Concubine Zhou felt that she was pregnant with the heir to the throne and was favored by the Imperial Concubine, and she was already flying in the face. She didn't know that her life was probably already in the countdown to her death.

Concubine Kang naturally understood what Shen Zhinian hadn't said. She glanced at Concubine Zhou's seat, and a hint of sneer flashed in her eyes: "Don't worry, sister Rou, I won't bother with such a person."

They have a tough battle to fight today and have no extra energy to spare for Concubine Zhou.

Suddenly, Shen Zhinian felt a leopard-like cold and dangerous gaze falling on her!
