Chapter 223: Bed Climbing Palace Maid
"Your Majesty, I have no choice. Who told you to let Yingrui instigate me to attack my master? My master is like a father to me. As a son, how can I let a poisonous snake stare at my father?" Wei Yan smiled and looked at Concubine Chen. "So! You can only blame your Majesty for being too greedy. You can't blame me."
Wei Yan's original plan was to keep Concubine Chen to stir up trouble in the harem, while her Chun Xi just needed to be clean and wait to sit on the position of Empress Dowager.
But who made Concubine Chen want to die? Then don't blame him for being cruel. After all, without Concubine Chen, he can support others to make wedding clothes for Chunxi.
The concubine looked at Wei Yan with resentment in her eyes: "Eunuch Wei, I have learned my lesson. Let's wait and see. I want to see what other tricks you can use."
Wei Yan smiled and said nothing more, then turned and left. Is this vicious woman still dreaming? Could she think she can regain her favor?
Haha! He was really naive. Wei Yan always believed in eradicating the root of the problem. He believed that Concubine Chun and Concubine Liu would not let him down.
Concubine Chun and Concubine Liu would certainly not let Wei Yan down. Drugs were put into the meal that Concubine Chen had that night, and she became seriously ill within a few days.
After all, Concubine Chen was demoted by the emperor, which meant she had completely fallen out of favor. It was understandable that she became seriously ill all of a sudden after such a huge blow, although some people did suspect that there must be something fishy about Concubine Chen's illness.
But so what? In this harem, things have always been so realistic that no one would bother to speak up for the concubine.
Half a month later, Concubine Chen died of illness. Within a few days, no one in the palace mentioned her anymore. It really proved the saying that when a person dies, it is like a light goes out.
After ten months of pregnancy, Jiang Chunxi gave birth to a princess, who was the original owner's daughter in her previous life. The next year, she successfully gave birth to a prince and was named a concubine by the emperor.
This made the concubines in the harem so jealous that they hated her to death. After all, in everyone's eyes, Jiang Chunxi was able to give birth to two children safely because of the emperor's favor for her. Aunt Fang was sent to Wutong Palace by the emperor.
Which concubine in the harem could be so protected by the emperor when she got pregnant? You have to know that during the period when Jiang Chunxi gave birth to two children, several concubines became pregnant and had miscarriages. So how could people not be jealous of Jiang Chunxi?
After Jiang Chunxi gave birth to her second child, her belly was covered with stretch marks. She gradually lost favor and faded out of people's sight. She was as low-key as she could be. If she didn't have to pay her respects to the queen every day, people would probably have forgotten about her.
Of course, Jiang Chunxi has a son and a daughter, so it is impossible for her to be ignored.
It was just that Wei Yan was stirring up trouble, and the fighting among the concubines in the harem became more and more intense, so no one took action against Jiang Chunxi. After all, Jiang Chunxi had lost favor, was usually very low-key, and was of humble origin.
Therefore, even if you want to deal with her, there is no need to rush.
Here I have to say, why didn't Jiang Chunxi give the emperor medicine to prevent the concubines from giving birth to sons, and then let Wei Yan find a way to get rid of Concubine Jing and the Queen's son? Then her son would become the emperor's only son, and she wouldn't have to keep a low profile.
That's of course because the situation in this world is different. If she was the only one with a son, the emperor would first suspect Aunt Fang and her.
If that were the case, then both she and Aunt Fang would have died. After all, the emperor of this world was very cold and cruel. That was why Jiang Chunxi had never thought of winning the emperor's heart, because it was impossible to succeed.
That's why she set her target on Wei Yan, and she only needed to be a clean and simple person, waiting for Wei Yan to eliminate everything for her. Even if Wei Yan was exposed, it would be none of her business. Anyway, even if Wei Yan was exposed, he would drag others to death. Even if he died, he would eliminate those who were not good for her for her.
Time soon came when the new emperor ascended the throne, and Jiang Chunxi finally became the empress dowager.
To be honest, apart from being a little bit aggrieved, there is nothing to complain about in this world.
Because she doesn't have to do anything, others give her what she wants.
"I want you to guard the late emperor's mausoleum. What do you think, Eunuch Wei?" Since she has become the empress dowager, Jiang Chunxi doesn't need to act with Wei Yan.
What's more, she has spared the life of this scumbag, so Wei Yan should be content.
Wei Yan looked at Jiang Chunxi in disbelief: "The Queen Mother wants to drive me away and doesn't want me to serve you."
Wei Yan was ready to serve Jiang Chunxi. They finally didn't have to worry about anything and could be together happily. But he didn't expect to be hit by such a blow. Naturally, Wei Yan was deeply shocked.
"Haha!" Jiang Chunxi laughed, "Wei Yan, a heartless person should be cut into pieces. I have been good enough to you! I have even spared your life. You should be content."
Wei Yan seemed to be meeting Jiang Chunxi for the first time, and then he smiled bitterly: "It seems that the Queen Mother has never forgiven me! She has been playing tricks on me all these years just to make me work hard for you."
"Forgive me," Jiang Chunxi said, as if she had heard a huge joke. Then her expression turned cold and she looked at Wei Yan with disgust. "From the moment you betrayed me, I wish I could kill you, this unfaithful man."
"You should be thankful that you still have something I can use for you. Otherwise, I would have found a way to kill you long ago."
"Ha!" Jiang Chunxi sneered, "Over the years, watching you charging forward for me, I couldn't help but want to laugh. I've always wanted to know, when you find out how I've used you, will you want to die with me?"
Wei Yan shook his head bitterly: "How can I bear to hurt you? You are the treasure in my heart!"
Wei Yan then knelt down and kowtowed to Jiang Chunxi: "Empress Dowager, I will not be by your side anymore, so you must take good care of yourself."
Although Wei Yan was sad, he did not hate Chunxi. After all, he was the one who let Chunxi down first, so he had no right to hate Chunxi for using him.
"Just rest assured and mourn for the late emperor in the imperial mausoleum!" Jiang Chunxi said, "As for your master, I will let him enjoy his old age in peace."
"Your servant thanks the Empress Dowager." Wei Yan did not doubt Jiang Chunxi's words, because his Chunxi had always been the kindest person and would not vent her anger on others because of him.
What's more, the master is like an elder to Chunxi.
"Wei Yan," Jiang Chunxi called out to Wei Yan as he stood up to leave, "If there is an afterlife, I hope you will never let down the people who are sincere to you again."
She was speaking on behalf of the original owner, after all, the original owner really loved Wei Yan.
"Yeah!" Wei Yan didn't look back. He nodded and strode out.
If there is an afterlife, Wei Yan hopes that he will be the one who is betrayed, so that he can also experience the pain that Chun Xi felt when she was betrayed by her lover.
After Jiang Chunxi sent Wei Zhongyan and Aunt Fang away in this world one after another, she left this world. After all, she was almost sixty years old at that time, and there was really no need for her to stay in this world any longer.
As for Wei Yan...
When Wei Yan learned the news of the empress dowager's death, he no longer had the desire to live and drank poison and committed suicide.
The moment he closed his eyes, he seemed to see the fourteen-year-old Chunxi sweetly calling him Brother Yan.
Fourteen-year-old Chunxi!
Wei Yan suddenly had a feeling that Chunxi before the age of fourteen was the one who loved him deeply.
Then Wei Yan showed a self-deprecating smile, thought he was probably crazy, and then he died completely.
