Chapter 113 The Emperor’s Grandson
"I tell you, she is the same as us. She has no family background, no parents or relatives to help her. She is just the Third Prince's plaything. If we try to please her, she will really think of dominating us. Then, none of us will have a good ending." Shaoyao glanced at the people with different expressions, and spoke slowly.
"You also saw the maid next to her. There is no good skin on her face or body. When did we see her without some injuries?" Shaoyao sneered coldly, "If you want to curry favor with her, go ahead. I won't stop you. See if she will treat you well."
"But she gave birth to a son for His Highness after all..." Chang Pu was very angry, "I'm telling you, sister, why don't you make it an accident and ask her..."
Acorus made a knife-like gesture and slashed his neck.
"You dare to touch her?" Shaoyao sneered, "You all know that His Royal Highness the Third Prince has put the responsibility of taking care of Concubine Jiang on me. I wanted to touch her, but I knew that His Royal Highness would punish me afterwards. I could have pushed the blame for her onto one of you, but I didn't do that. We have been sisters for so many years, and we have a deep relationship."
"Are any of you willing to take on this crime? If you are willing, you can just rush into the delivery room and throw the child to the ground. The other sisters will benefit from your kindness."
The flowers looked at each other and none of them stood up.
No one wants to be someone else's stepping stone.
"Oh!" Shaoyao sneered, "Since my sisters don't have the guts, then don't encourage me to harm His Highness's child."
"This is His Majesty's first little grandson. If the mother is honored by the son, will that Concubine Jiang... become the prince's principal wife? We excluded her so much in the past. If she becomes the principal wife, will she sell us all out?"
When Shaoyao heard this, she gripped the table tightly with her hands, leaving marks on it with her nails.
"I have to think of a way. I can't let her step on my head..."
When Zhao Zheyong heard the news, he immediately rushed to Jiang Wanwan's courtyard with joy, and also sent someone to inform Emperor Zhao Changta and Queen Mother Jiang Xueyi.
Zhen Zhen woke up the sleeping Jiang Yunxi.
Jiang Yunxi slightly opened his eyes, saw the dark sky outside, and closed his eyes again, dazed, mumbling, "I'm still sleepy, let me sleep a little longer..."
"Princess, please wake up... Concubine Jiang has given birth to a son." Zhen Zhen's tone was very unhappy. She felt that it was unfair to let Jiang Wanwan give birth to a son so that Jiang Wanwan could gain status by having a son!
"Oh, a little grandson was born? Isn't that great?" Jiang Yunxi turned over and fell asleep on her side, showing no sign of getting up.
Zhen Zhen pouted, very unhappy, "She has gotten all the good things, and now, isn't she going to be honored by her son? If she becomes the third prince's wife, won't she be even more arrogant and look down on the princess?"
Jiang Yunxi narrowed his eyes and did not respond.
"The Queen Mother asked you to go and see her for her." Zhen Zhen said softly, and arched her nose in dissatisfaction, "Humph, going to see her is really giving her face!"
With the Queen Mother's order, Jiang Yunxi had no choice but to sit up, close her eyes and rest, letting Zhen Zhen wipe her face and change her clothes.
"She has already brought shame to the Jiang family. If I go to see her, wouldn't it be telling others that I have forgiven her previous behavior? But she gave birth to the first baby boy among the emperor's grandchildren. I know that His Majesty has been looking forward to a grandson for a long time, and I don't want to spoil His Majesty's interest. So it is reasonable for me to go and see the little grandson."
"Will His Majesty really give Concubine Jiang a higher position for the sake of the little grandson?" Zhen Zhen was a little worried.
"I'm afraid Jiang Wanwan wants to be the principal wife, but Zhao Zheyong may not want her to be the principal wife. Judging from Zhao Zheyong's calculating personality, we can know that he doesn't think highly of the Jiang family, which is of no help to him now." Jiang Yunxi said, "I'm afraid it won't be easy for her to be a concubine."
Jiang Yunxi closed her eyes, feeling dazed and powerless, so she let Zhen Zhen help her stand up and walk forward.
When they arrived in front of the East Six Palaces, Jiang Yunxi suddenly opened his eyes. His eyes were bright and sharp, and he looked nothing like he had just woken up.
Seeing this, Zhen Zhen let go of Jiang Yunxi's hand.
Jiang Yunxi had a polite smile on her face as she greeted Zhao Changta, the Queen, Concubine Xian and others one by one.
"Yun Xi congratulates His Majesty on the birth of his little grandson."
Zhao Changta smiled kindly, "Go, Yunxi, go see the little grandson."
There was unconcealable happiness in his tone.
Zhao Zheyong sat beside the bed, accompanying Jiang Wanwan who was sleeping with her eyes half closed.
Perhaps because she hated Jiang Wanwan, Queen Meng Jingshu was not very happy.
Concubine Wei Yanyan greeted Jiang Yunxi enthusiastically, "Yunxi, come and see the little grandson."
Jiang Yunxi took a few glances and said with a smile, "He is really small."
Shaoyao, who was surrounding the little grandson, also responded, "Yes, I can't tell for a moment whether this little grandson looks more like the concubine or the third prince."
There was something in her words.
Jiang Yunxi just curled the corners of his mouth and didn't respond.
Shaoyao was actually not sure whether the child was Zhao Zheyong's, but she saw that the script said so, so she said it out loud.
Xian Fei took up Shaoyao's words, "This palace has a look, this child is so tight that it is indeed hard to tell. But it is also true that Concubine Jiang was born prematurely, and this child is still too small. We have to wait until the facial features grow a little more before we can see it."
Shaoyao smiled and continued, "Oh, I forgot that this child was born prematurely. Seeing that the child was healthy and strong, I almost thought it was a full-term baby."
Of course, Concubine Xian understood the meaning of this statement.
The women in the palace all understood what this meant.
However, no one deliberately pointed out that the child was not Zhao Zheyong's.
Jiang Wanwan, who was pretending to be asleep with her eyes squinted, was the first to panic. She opened her eyes, tugged at the corner of Zhao Zheyong's clothes, and deliberately said in a very weak tone, "Your Highness..."
Everyone's eyes turned to Jiang Wanwan.
Shaoyao of course knew that Jiang Wanwan was deliberately pretending to be weak, and couldn't help but roll her eyes.
She rushed to Jiang Wanwan's bed, knelt down and wiped her face, deliberately exposing the tattoo on her face.
When Zhao Zheyong saw the tattoo on Jiang Wanwan's face, he indeed showed an expression of displeasure, and subconsciously loosened his grip on Jiang Wanwan's hand.
