Chapter 519 - A Letter Concubine Qin Wanted to Give Out Urgently (2/2)
“Does she also want to be the second consort?” Concubine Qin sneered. “Since she dared to frame the first consort in front of so many people today, Concubine Xiang, that stupid woman would never become the second consort in her life.”
It was a big crime to frame the first consort, but she easily escaped it. On the surface, it seemed as if Mo Xuetong had been greatly wronged. Furthermore, it happened in her birthday banquet. As such, Feng Yuran brought her to the West Hill Yard as soon as the banquet ended. It was a form of compensation for Mo Xuetong.
Mo Xuetong was in Feng Yuran’s good graces right now. Concubine Qin was certain that it was self-defeating about what Concubine Xiang had done. If a concubine without t.i.tle dared to do something like that, she would create chaos in the future after she gave birth to King Xuan’s eldest son.
She might not be able to survive the birth. Furthermore, even if she really gave birth to a son, King Xuan would take the child away without hesitation when Mo Xuetong said that she wanted to raise him. After all, she had suffered earlier and was Consort Xuan. It made no difference to Concubine Xiang whether she had a son or not. If she wanted to be promoted depending on her son, she had to be fortunate enough.
Concubine Qin really didn’t like Concubine Xiang. She had been waiting for several months. If she kept on enduring for a period of time, Concubine Xiang would give birth after nine months’ pregnancy. If it was a son, Feng Yuran would give her a high status because she had been bending over when she was pregnant. After all, if the eldest son’s mother had a low position, it would be bad for the child.
Of course, this had to be based on the fact that Concubine Xiang had not made any big mistakes.
“You met me just to let me fawn on Concubine Xiang?”Please go and support our new domain MangaBob.com.Thanks! Concubine Qin looked at Concubine Yun unhappily and raised her chin slightly. Whether in the past or now, she was much better than Concubine Xiang.
“Of course not. When I went out of the manor today, I saw the carriage of your Duke Wanping at the gate of an ornament store. I also saw a beautiful young lady. I heard the maids call her Second Miss. She was dressed in luxurious clothes and had a n.o.ble temperament, similar to you. I thought she was your Second Sister, so I came up to her and wanted to talk about you, but was pushed away by her maids. I failed to send the thing you asked me to bring to your father last time.”
As she speaking, Concubine Yun took out a paper envelope and handed it to Concubine Qin. She said with admiration, “Speaking of your Second Miss, she looked so gorgeous that I can tell at a glance that she is a n.o.ble lady. It’s just that the status of a concubine like me is too low, so her maids didn’t let me get close to her.”
The Second Miss of Duke Wanping’s Manor dared to push away the people she sent?
Concubine Qin gritted her teeth and a flash of anger appeared in her eyes. There was also a hint of hatred in her eyes. A concubine’s daughter who used to be around her and flatter her dared to ask her maids to push away the one who sent a letter for her. How dare the b.i.t.c.h think that she was too low to be a concubine?
She planned that when she made contact with her father and explained her ideas to him, she would let the b.i.t.c.h marry a servant of the lowest rank. That b.i.t.c.h thought of herself as n.o.ble and looked down on her? Concubine Qin felt stuffy in her chest. The person who had been trampled on by her in the past had dared to look down on her. She, who had always thought highly of herself, was unable to bear it.
“Concubine Qin, why don’t you go out and give it a try yourself?” suggested Concubine Yun with a smile.
Concubine Qin took the letter and saw that it was still tightly sealed. She frowned and said, “How can I go out of the manor at will!”
“Why can’t you? You can dress up as a maid and say that you’re the maid of a concubine in the manor and want to buy some cloth and food. As long as you give some money to the two old maidservants at the back door, it’s easy for you to go out.” Concubine Yun giggled and said indifferently, “Today I went out of the manor in this way. n.o.body knows. I heard that His Highness will not come back these days and accompany Her Lady. So there is no master in the manor. It’s easier to go out!”
“Is it easy to cope with the old maidservants at the back door?” Concubine Qin was tempted. She really had something to tell Duke Wanping. In order to get a higher position, she had to contact her father. But in the past, she had sent her maid who came from Duke Wanping’s Manor to try it, but the maid said that the back door was heavily guarded and did not allow anyone to go out without a token.
She had wanted to send a letter to her father, but it would be even better if she could see her father directly. There were some things that were inconvenient for her to say in the letter.
“It’s not difficult anyway. I’ve already gone out twice. No one made things difficult for me.” Concubine Yun smiled and took out a few handkerchiefs from her pocket and handed them to Concubine Qin. When the latter touched it, she found that they were soft. It was obvious that they were made of good material and they were brand new. “I brought these from outside today. I’ll give them to you since there are a few more here. You’ve been in the manor for a period of time and haven’t gone out yet.”
Then, she politely extended her hand to Concubine Qin, seemingly trying to b.u.t.ter up to her. Concubine Qin harrumphed coldly and pushed her hand away proudly. She said lightly, “I don’t want them. Don’t worry. You can come to me if you need anything in the future, but you don’t have to send me these unnecessary things.”
After saying that, she turned away without looking at Concubine Yun.
At this moment, a bolt of lightning flashed across the sky. Under the shade of the trees, the humble and ingratiating expression on Concubine Yun’s face gave way to a sneer and gloom…
