Chapter 288: Emperor with Hidden Disease VS Tofu Xishi (8)
·
Ye Xiu Lao Po
Wang Zhaoyi didn't care about Concubine Li's expression. She sacrificed her sleep time and came to Fengxiang Palace early in the morning just to know what this beauty looked like.
As a result, when she saw Wushuang's face clearly, she couldn't help but feel a sense of crisis.
Such a beautiful person is definitely a strong rival.
Of course, Wang Zhaoyi did not regard Wushuang as her number one rival, because according to their "understanding" of Qin Mu, the most important thing for their majesty was family background.
If you look at the rank and status of the concubines in the harem, they are all awarded according to their family background.
And Wushuang, a tofu girl, no matter how beautiful or favored she is, cannot surpass them.
For women like them who come from aristocratic families, although the emperor's favor is important, the most important thing is the interests of their family.
As long as the interests of the family are not harmed, they will not have such a big sense of crisis if the emperor favors a concubine with no background.
"Shu's beauty is truly stunning, and she lives up to the title of 'Shu'." Wang Zhaoyi said, looking at Wushuang.
"I heard, Shu Meiren, that your parents sell tofu?" The folding fan in Wang Meiren's hand that followed her in covered the lower half of her face, but she could still see her contemptuous smile.
"Concubine, please give my regards to the noble concubine." Beauty Wang's etiquette was quite considerate, but she was not as arrogant as Wang Zhaoyi, who even looked down upon the noble concubine.
It's just that she was respectful to Concubine Li, but Wu Shuang was condescending and contemptuous.
"Beauty Shu is really lucky. Your Majesty has taken a fancy to this little tofu girl, and now she is on an equal footing with girls from aristocratic families like us. She is really... very lucky." Wang Meiren said in a strange tone.
Beauty Wang also knew that others wanted to see her take action against Wushuang, just because she and Wushuang were both fourth-grade beauties. She knew but still couldn't control her anger.
Even though she didn't want other women to see the joke, she couldn't suppress her resentment when she really saw Wushuang.
Why?
Why would His Majesty allow her, the dignified daughter of the Langya Wang family, to be on an equal footing with this tofu girl?
Wang Meiren really wanted to be Jieyu, or simply become a concubine, or even a queen. She did not want to be like this tofu girl, a fourth-grade beauty.
Wushuang was not unhappy because of Wang Meiren's disdainful words. In fact, Wushuang herself should be the happiest among what Wang Meiren said.
After all, she, a tofu girl from an ordinary background, can be "on an equal footing" with this group of girls from prominent aristocratic families and treat her like sisters. It should be the other people who are angry.
Wushuang also picked up a small round fan to cover his smile and said, "Thanks to Your Majesty for your love for my sister, I can get to know you all again today."
"My sister comes from a poor family, and her acquaintance with all of you is the result of His Majesty's great kindness."
"Sister, I'm really grateful to His Majesty for giving me this opportunity. Otherwise, how could I know all the sisters who come from aristocratic families and live in the deep palace compound?" Wushuang said "obediently".
Concubine Li Guifei, Wang Zhaoyi and Meiren Wang all had good expressions, because Wu Shuang's words seemed to compliment them, but in fact they trampled under their feet.
They consider themselves to be noble daughters of aristocratic families, with incomparable dignity that a tofu girl like Wushuang will never be able to match. The difference between them is simply clouds and mud.
But now because of Qin Mu, the emperor's doting on Wushuang, she had the opportunity to become a sister to the noble ladies, which simply disgusted them.
At this time, the first thought that came to the minds of several concubines was -
What's wrong with the emperor?Why do you favor such a poor woman?Where to put the faces of these noble ladies?
But Qin Mu was not a puppet emperor. He had real power, and two-thirds of the Qin army obeyed his orders.
Being strong means being able to do whatever you want.
No matter how much these concubines from aristocratic families hate Wushuang, they cannot vent their anger on Qin Mu.
Qin Mu has great power, and all civil and military officials cannot shake him.
So what if there are aristocratic families in Da Qin?Although the aristocratic family is still superior, if they really want to face the emperor, they don't have much chance of winning.
The most important thing is that the aristocratic families don't want to be dealt with by the emperor and lose their status as a family, and they don't want to be reduced to a poor family that they don't look down on.
"Beauty Shu is really sharp-tongued." Concubine Li said with a stiff smile.
"Your mouth is the reason why His Majesty favors you, right?" Wang Zhaoyi couldn't help but said to Wushuang, "You are quite eloquent."
"Sisters are joking. The reason why my sister is favored by His Majesty is because of her charming face." Wushuang said confidently.
What she is most proud and proud of is her face. In order to protect this face, she can practice very hard, just because she is afraid that someone will destroy her face when she is weak.
Of course, with such a beautiful face, she has no ability to resist when others have bad intentions towards her, which is also one of the motivations for her to practice hard.
Wushuang's proud look made several people itch with hatred, but she was not wrong either.
Of course Qin Mu liked her because of her face, could it be that he also liked her for other things?
She has no family background and no abilities. What else can she have besides her face?
Wushuang yawned softly, and said softly to Concubine Li and others, "Concubine, can I go back?"
"It's all your Majesty's fault. My concubine asked him not to bother with it, so I didn't sleep all night..." Wu Shuang complained, and suddenly remembered that these words could not be said in public, so he quickly shut up.
"Sisters, can you just pretend that your sister didn't say anything just now?" Wushuang asked with a shy look.
Concubine Li Gui: "..."
"Shu is such a beautiful lady..." Wang Zhaoyi gritted her teeth and said, "She is so vulgar."
"As expected of a tofu girl, don't you even have any sense of shame?" Wang Meiren said unhappy, "Oh, by the way, it is said that Shu Meiren was found by Taipusi Shaoqing when she was selling tofu on the street."
"To be picked up by Cheng Shaoqing on the street and sent to the palace, it shows that you don't even know the word 'honesty'." said Wang Meiren.
Wushuang asked in surprise, "What? Is it not allowed for my sister to sell tofu on the street and help her parents?"
"Does the law of Daqin stipulate that women cannot sell things on the street? My sister is not well-educated, so she doesn't even know that Daqin has such a law."
"Did my sister break the law? Sisters, will the fact that my sister has sold tofu cause my sister to be thrown into jail?" Wushuang looked for help from several "sisters" with a worried and frightened expression on his face.
Beauty Wang choked.
Yes, Da Qin's laws do not stipulate that women cannot sell things.
The laws of Da Qin did not stipulate that women could only hide in the back house and not go anywhere, nor did they stipulate that women could not go out.
The atmosphere in Da Qin is very open. Unmarried men and women can go out to meet each other. There are no rules such as "men and women are not allowed to sit at the same table at the age of seven".
So the fact that Wushuang sells tofu on the street is really not a big deal.
It can even be said that she is self-reliant and filial to help her parents sell things. You really can't blame her for showing up.
As a result, when she saw Wushuang's face clearly, she couldn't help but feel a sense of crisis.
Such a beautiful person is definitely a strong rival.
Of course, Wang Zhaoyi did not regard Wushuang as her number one rival, because according to their "understanding" of Qin Mu, the most important thing for their majesty was family background.
