Chapter 200 I'm Not Stupid
Yan Wan looked at Madam Wei's greedy eyes with satisfaction, and said softly, "I have a hundred taels of silver here, mother, take it first, and wait until later..."
Madam Wei interrupted her with a dark look on her face: "One hundred taels? Are you sending away a beggar?!"
Wei Yanwan was stunned: "Mother..."
She hesitated several times before asking softly, "Mother, you have been so caring and concerned about me for the past month, but was it all fake? One hundred taels has exposed your true colors?"
Mrs. Wei thought what she said was too harsh, but she really couldn't force a smile.
She is now a person with a fortune of 100,000 taels, so how could she still be interested in her 100 taels?
She was so angry that she could no longer pretend. "You are so petty. It seems that you are really pregnant with a girl! Forget it! You should save the 100 taels of silver to buy diapers for your daughter!"
After saying that, he left angrily.
Yanwan called her twice, but she never turned back.
Chunchan said softly: "Master, don't be sad."
Yan Wan sighed and said, "Mother has never cared about me. I have always known that."
The master and servant stood in the yard for a while before returning to the house together.
Yan Wan lay on the couch: "Mother can't wait any longer. Zuolu's leg is lame, and she is anxious to go back to take care of Zuolu. Unfortunately, Concubine Xian insisted on waiting. The two of them are going to quarrel again today."
Chunchan whispered, "The louder they quarrel, the better."
Yan Wan stroked her belly and said, "Yes, the louder the noise, the better."
Another half a month passed, and the concubines in the harem gathered in Changchun Palace again.
Yanwan looked at the expressions of the crowd and felt very interested.
Concubine Chun was unable to maintain her airs as a concubine today. She had a stern face and glanced at Ruyi from the corner of her eyes from time to time.
Ruyi's face was bright and cheerful. She didn't doze off like an old woman today. She kept talking and smiling to the people around her.
Shupin sat next to Ruyi, her face almost stiff, and she looked very reluctant and embarrassed.
Yan Wan looked at Shupin who was on pins and needles and almost laughed out loud - Yihuan had been really wronged during this period. She had to listen to Ruyi's pretentious words every day and had to endure the nausea and try to please her.
Ruyi stared at Yanwan sharply: "What are you laughing at, Concubine Ling?"
When she asked the question, the smile on her face had disappeared, and her slightly youthful face instantly turned into the dignified and solemn look of an old concubine, full of decadence.
Yan Wan stroked her belly and said, "This child kicked me."
Ruyi's face twitched, and her expression was indifferent: "Ling Fei, I don't mean to say anything to you, but you are pregnant, so don't bother the emperor anymore. If you hurt the heir, I'm afraid you won't be able to bear the consequences."
Yan Wan was bewildered: "What Concubine Xian meant is..."
She hesitated again and again: "Next time the emperor comes, I will drive him out?"
She looked at Ruyi in shock: "Is this what you mean?"
Ruyi choked: "You know exactly what I mean. Don't let people laugh at you for not forgetting to hook up with the emperor during your pregnancy!"
Yan Wan frowned and said, "Empress Xian, your methods of competing for favor in the palace are a bit too straightforward and crude. It makes me want to laugh."
Ruyi also frowned: "I am also concerned about your reputation. Why do you have to slander me with such harsh words?"
Yan Wan was so angry that she laughed: "I am not a decent person. I only respect and obey the emperor. How dare I make decisions for him? You urged me to make decisions for him and arrange where he should live. Isn't that asking me to get killed?"
Ruyi was helpless: "You are a concubine, and you have the obligation to consider the emperor's reputation..."
Yan Wan interrupted her: "Since you think it's inappropriate, why don't you go and give your advice?"
Ruyi sighed: "This matter has something to do with you..."
Yan Wan interrupted her again: "Empress Xian, you don't need to say more. I am not stupid. I won't listen to you blindly. I don't believe in anything that is for my own good. You have never liked me, so how could you do it for my own good?"
She leaned back lazily in her chair and said, "I know that you, Concubine Xian, are eager to win favor, but, after all, you are already a concubine, you should have some dignity and stop asking for it. It's too ugly to be greedy."
After saying that, he covered his mouth and nose with a handkerchief with disgust, as if he was smoked.
Ruyi was angry and annoyed: "I think you are a heartless person, so I think everything is dirty!"
Yan Wan sneered: "Yes, yes, yes, Concubine Xian, you are the cleanest, as clean as that ignorant little girl, okay?"
Ruyi raised her eyebrows: "Wei Yanwan!"
Empress Fucha came out and said, "Empress Xian, please stop shouting in front of me. If you don't want to come to Changchun Palace, you don't have to come here anymore."
Ruyi was so angry that her face turned pale: "The Queen has always been fair and generous, why do you always take sides when dealing with me and Concubine Ling?"
Yan Wan said softly, "Don't be angry with her, Queen. Concubine Xian has always been like this. If anyone can't be on her side without thinking, it's unfair to her. They are just being bewitched by my seductiveness."
Empress Fucha was a little annoyed at first, but she laughed out loud after hearing this: "You are so mischievous. Sit down quickly. Your belly is already so big, you need to take good care of it. Don't cause trouble like Concubine Xian."
Yan Wan's eyes curved, "Yes, I will obey your majesty."
Ruyi frowned slightly, looked at Yanwan, then at the Queen, and a look of anxiety flashed across her face.
How did these two people get back together?
Isn't Fucha Langya the one who can't tolerate other people getting pregnant? Why is she so generous to Wei Yanwan?
Could it be that... Fu Cha Langya has taken a fancy to Wei Yanwan's belly and wants to kill the mother and keep the child?
Ruyi really couldn't stand it. She finally managed to sow discord between the two and restored harmony. She chuckled and said, "The Empress doesn't know yet, does she? Concubine Ling has been getting along very well with her mother recently. Speaking of which, the Empress wanted to make the decision for Concubine Ling and reprimanded her mother that day. She was really meddling in other people's business!"
Empress Fucha's expression was slightly cold: "Empress Xian, do you want to copy the palace rules again?"
Ruyi smiled and apologized calmly, "I was careless with my words and made Her Majesty angry. I will pay more attention next time."
She clasped her hands in front of her belly and smiled meaningfully.
When Empress Fucha saw her strange movements, she frowned slightly, glanced at her belly, and turned away with a cold face.
What followed was the daily admonition. After she finished speaking, Empress Fucha's face was visibly tired. She waved her hand and told everyone to leave if they had nothing to do. She also changed the twice-monthly audience to once a month.
Ruyi stared at Empress Fucha with sarcasm in her eyes as she refused Yanwan's request to stay. She chuckled, took Hailan's hand, and left Changchun Palace.
Ruyi smiled and said to Hailan, "Hailan, you see, the closer Wei Yanwan gets to giving birth, the more the queen can't pretend. She simply can't tolerate the emperor's favorite giving birth to a child."
