Chapter 756 Princess's Revenge 4
Chapter 756 Princess's Revenge 4
"What nonsense are you talking about, kid?" The emperor suddenly felt a headache. "You heartless girl, why don't I favor you? You have so many brothers and sisters. Have I ever shown any special favor to them?"
"I have poured all my fatherly love into you. I hold you in my hands for fear of dropping you, and in my mouth for fear of you melting. Yet, you, a damned girl, actually accuse me of not doting on you."
"Father," Jiang Chunxi turned around and immediately threw herself into the emperor's arms, "I was just being petty with you, deliberately trying to piss you off, why did you take it so seriously?"
"Okay, don't be angry, or I will pull your beard to punish you. Who made you so petty that you had to get angry with me and say angry words to irritate me?"
Jiang Chunxi was acting completely in accordance with the original owner's personality, which was enough to prove how favored the original owner was. In the eyes of the original owner, the emperor was just a kind father who loved her, and she didn't regard the emperor as her father at all.
Of course, in the eyes of the emperor, the original owner's daughter is just the apple of his eye and cannot be mentioned in the same breath with his other children. If the original owner's daughter is the apple of the emperor's eye, then his other children are just there to make up the numbers.
"Okay, okay, it's all father's fault. Father apologizes to you, so please don't be angry with him," the emperor said, looking helpless, and quickly admitted his fault to his daughter in a gentle voice, "I will now order you to divorce Cui Junyu and let Cui Junyu be a lowly concubine in your princess's mansion."
"Also, when you leave the palace later, bring a few more people back with you. They are the concubines I specially found for you."
In the original owner's previous life, the emperor had also thought about saving his daughter's love-brained heart, so he specially asked people to find several handsome men with different styles, wanting his daughter to take them back to the princess's mansion.
As for whether doing so would cause dissatisfaction among the ministers in the court and damage the daughter's reputation, after all, since ancient times only men could have three wives and four concubines, so how could a woman not be faithful to her husband and keep a gigolo?
Even if she is a princess, she cannot do anything that goes against women's ethics or is out of line with the rules.
However, the emperor did not take these things seriously at all. As the apple of his eye and the most noble princess in the entire dynasty, what did it matter if she had a few male lovers?
It's just a pity! In the original owner's previous life, the emperor's fatherly love was betrayed by the original owner. The original owner was even angry with the emperor because of this matter and did not enter the palace for two whole months.
Jiang Chunxi's eyes lit up: "Father is telling the truth, he did not lie to me."
"You damn girl, when have I ever lied to you?" The emperor pinched his precious daughter's nose lovingly, "Someone come! Bring those lovers here so that the princess can take a good look at them."
The chief eunuch beside the emperor quickly turned around and went out, and at this moment, Concubine Shu came outside to ask for a meeting.
Shufei is the mother of the third prince.
It has to be said that Concubine Shu was an extremely intelligent woman. All the concubines in the harem were resentful that the original owner was the only one favored by the emperor and that their children were treated as if they were picked up. However, Concubine Shu took her son to please the original owner everywhere.
This immediately caught the emperor's eye for Concubine Shu and the Third Prince, but the emperor did not show anything about it. Otherwise, if everyone knew that they could win the emperor's favor by pleasing the original owner, they would surely follow suit.
The reason why the emperor did this was to better examine those princes and see who was worthy of his trust, so as to ensure that after he was gone, his beloved daughter would still be the most honorable princess of the dynasty.
It’s just a pity!
The emperor made a mistake, so he said that Concubine Shu was amazing...
Or maybe it could be that the mother and son were so powerful that they even deceived the emperor.
"Let Concubine Shu come in," the emperor said to the eunuch who came in to report, then he took his daughter's hand and sat down on the couch. "Concubine Shu must have learned that you came to the palace, so she brought you some snacks."
Concubine Shu really put a lot of effort into pleasing the original owner. In order to cater to the original owner's taste, she specially learned cooking and developed several snacks that the original owner liked. She also specially promoted these snacks. Only the emperor and the princess could eat them. It was in vain for anyone who wanted to know the recipes of these snacks.
This really pleased the original owner. After all, as the most favored princess, the original owner valued uniqueness the most. However, after she married Cui Junyu, she seemed to have completely changed into a different person.
"I pay my respects to the Emperor and pay my respects to the Princess." As soon as Concubine Shu came in, she respectfully saluted the Emperor and Jiang Chunxi.
Logically speaking, as one of the four concubines, Shufei could be considered the princess's stepmother, not a low-ranking concubine, and she did not need to pay respects to Jiang Chunxi at all.
That is why it is said that Concubine Shu is humble enough to endure any kind of humiliation, even if it means becoming the laughing stock of the concubines in the harem. With such a character and endurance, it is no wonder that she could become the final winner in the original owner's previous life.
"Get up!" The emperor said in a light voice. No matter how satisfied he was with Concubine Shu's performance, the emperor never gave Concubine Shu special treatment even in words.
As soon as Concubine Shu stood up, she immediately asked the two palace maids behind her to present the snacks she had prepared: "I prepare the snacks that the princess likes every day, so that the princess can eat the snacks I made every time she enters the palace."
"Shufei is thoughtful," Jiang Chunxi looked at Shufei with a half-smile, "but this princess is very curious about what Shufei is trying to achieve by investing so much energy in me. This matter has always troubled me. Shufei, why don't you tell me directly today so that I don't have to guess."
The emperor looked at his daughter in surprise, but didn't say anything.
Concubine Shu also looked surprised: "Princess, why would you think like this? The reason why I treat you well is just because I like you. How could I have any ulterior motive?"
"My Lady Shufei, you are being ridiculous," Jiang Chunxi sneered. "There is no such thing as goodness without reason in this world, especially in the big melting pot of the imperial palace. My Lady Shufei said she likes me because she simply wants to be good to me. If my Lady Shufei didn't have a son, I might still believe you."
"Princess, I really have no ulterior motive in being nice to you," Concubine Shu was a little flustered, but her expression did not show any abnormality. "If you must say that I have ulterior motives, it is my Third Prince. I hope that the Emperor will be more kind to the Third Prince because of my kindness to you."
"Are you trying to blame our father by saying this, Empress Shufei? Are you thinking that he hasn't shown the love that a father should give to the Third Prince?" Jiang Chunxi's words made Empress Shufei kneel down in fear.
"Princess, I absolutely do not have such rebellious thoughts. Please do not slander me, otherwise I will die to commemorate this."
