Chapter 6 Concubine Jiang wants to kill her
After Chu Baihan left the door of Dongming Palace, he originally wanted to go to the Imperial Garden to wait for the banquet to come out.
But who knew that someone stopped her halfway and forced her to "invited" her to Jiangxin Palace.
"Empress, the man has brought it." The palace maid respectfully said to the figure behind the screen.
Soon, the man walked out from behind the screen.
She was wearing a red palace outfit and her slender waist was bound by a cloud belt, which made her look even more invisible. Her face was gorgeous and her charming look was natural.
This person is one of the four concubines that the emperor personally granted, Concubine Jiang, in the harem for many years. Of course, she is also Yan Lin's biological mother.
Assuming her identity, Chu Baihan lowered his head and whispered: "My daughter-in-law has met her mother."
"Ha, Mother? I don't have a daughter-in-law like you." Concubine Jiang sneered, and the irony in her words was unconcealed.
Well, it seems that this "mother" doesn't like her very much.
Since that's the case, there's nothing to pretend.
Chu Baihan slowly looked up and said in a low voice: "Since Concubine Jiang doesn't like me, then I'll leave."
After saying that, she turned around.
Her actions scared the maids in Jiangxin Palace to the point of being confused.
You should know that the Empress's status in the harem is second only to the Empress and the Empress Dowager. Even if something happened to the Eighth Prince, the Emperor's preference for her was only greater or less, and even the Empress had to give her some thin face.
Could this Chu family be crazy and dare to treat the Empress?
"presumptuous!"
Concubine Jiang beat the teacup next to her hard, and she scolded everyone sternly: "You won't stop her from this concubine."
Soon, the palace maids of Jiangxin Palace completely blocked Chu Baihan's path.
It seems that it is not easy for her to get out of here today. Chu Baihan exhaled, and she turned around quickly, looking at Concubine Jiang with neither humble nor arrogant eyes.
"Concubine Jiang doesn't like seeing me, and she doesn't want me to leave. What do you mean?"
Concubine Jiang sneered coldly and slowly sat down on the chair. The maid next to her quickly came over to add tea to her, fan the air, and beat her legs.
She didn't respond for a long time, so she deliberately left Chu Baihan alone.
Chu Baihan knew that the other party was deliberately making things difficult for her, so she didn't say anything. She just used it to see who could consume it until the end.
Finally, it took a long time before Concubine Jiang spoke coldly: "No matter whether you are the concubine of the Chu family or the legitimate daughter of the Chu family, you are not worthy of the emperor's son. The daughter-in-law I like should be the daughter of Grand Tutor Liu. She is smart and sensible, so that such a person can become the assistant to the eighth brother."
The daughter of the Grand Tutor? Oh, the daughter of Concubine Liu, who is about to break the threshold and the princes of various families are asking for marriage?
The Liu family has been the Taifu for generations. They have taught Taizu and the emperor, so the Liu family has a great status in the emperor's mind.
The most important thing is that Mrs. Liu is the princess of another country and is protected by someone behind her.
The daughter of the Liu family whom she married was indeed many times better than the unpopular daughter of the treacherous general Chu.
Chu Baihan listened quietly, without any anger, but smiled.
Finally, she nodded in agreement: "Well, I also think that the prince and Miss Liu are a combination of heaven and earth. I also asked Concubine Jiang to ask the emperor to ask the prince to leave me so that he can fly with Miss Liu."
"You..." Jiang Fei's eyes burst out with anger.
She thought Chu Baihan was deliberately mocking her.
She hadn't told the emperor about this, but...
Although the emperor favored her, every time he talked about Yan Lin, the emperor's face would definitely cool down and he would scold her without mentioning it.
She and the emperor were indeed in love with each other, but only they themselves knew that there was an irreparable crack between them.
That crack is the feast.
"The emperor has never mentioned that you want to give a marriage, it must be your Chu family who is making trouble. Do you think you can occupy the position of Princess Lin in this way? This concubine ordered you to immediately ask your father to ask the emperor to agree to take back the marriage order." Concubine Jiang scolded sternly.
"Empress Jiang, the emperor's mouth has already opened, how can he take it back?"
"Then I will let Lin'er settle you!" Concubine Jiang's expression became gloomy.
"Okay, if Empress Jiang can let the prince get me off, I will beg you!" Chu Baihan nodded very sincerely.
She dreamed that she would escape from the Linwang Mansion, escape from the Chu family, escape from the capital, and escape from these people!
But her calmness fell into Jiang Fei's eyes and became a provocation again.
"Ha, it seems that you believe that Lin'er will not divorce you, so you are so arrogant. In fact, there is another better way, that is, you die. As long as you die, the position of Princess Lin will be free. Come on, take the white silk."
Concubine Jiang glanced at Chu Baihan with a vicious look, and then asked the palace maid to bring the white silk.
"When you die, I will claim to the public that you contradicted me. I will punish you very much. But I will not be able to bear it and die. No one will care about your death. Anyway, you are not favored in the Chu family, and your father will not offend me for you."
At this time, Concubine Jiang had already started to pick up the teacup and slowly savor it. She looked happy and contented.
Chu Baihan's expression became colder and colder. Even Concubine Jiang had thought about how to deal with the aftermath after her death, but she was afraid that this plan would have been done long ago, so she was waiting to kill her now.
Looking at the white silk getting closer and closer, several silver needles appeared in her palm.
When she came from Jiangnan, she brought this thing with her.
She doesn't understand martial arts, and at the critical moment, silver needles can save her life.
She looked at the palace maid who was walking towards her step by step, and was thinking in her mind which life gate would be faster after being stabbed.
Seeing that the palace maid was coming to the palace maid in front of him, Chu Baihan's eyes trembled and he was about to raise his hand.
But at this moment, a cold sound came from the door.
"Is the mother of a mother who is even the son of a son now going to kill her?"
Concubine Jiang raised her eyes and saw Ziying coming in with Yan Lin.
She looked a little nervous, and her hand shook, and the hot tea splashed on the back of her hand.
She frowned fiercely and glared at the palace maid who was serving her side.
Withdrawing her eyes, she quickly stood up and smiled gently: "Lin'er, why are you here?"
Yan Lin did not respond to her, but ordered Ziying: "Why don't you go and save the princess?"
Ziying reacted and rushed over quickly.
The palace maids were so scared that they quickly threw the white silk away.
Chu Baihan's coldness in his eyes stopped and hid the silver needle.
It was also at this time that Yan Lin came to her side and after fumbled for a while, his slightly cold big hand directly grabbed her fingertips.
"Didn't I ask you to wait for me in the Imperial Garden? Why did you come here?" Yan Lin's tone was slightly cold, and his reprimanding intention was not hidden at all.
Chu Baihan knew that his strange behavior was to save her life in front of Concubine Jiang, so she did not resist, but whispered: "I know I am wrong."
