MTL - My Parents Are Omnipotent-Chapter 416 bullying

  Xie Yuan's original wife, the empress, was still very clear-headed when things did not involve her natal parents and brother-in-law. She rejected all those who came to her for help without exception.

No matter who came to her, and no matter what benefits the other party implicitly promised her, she always had only one sentence, "This palace is just an inner palace woman, and I dare not go beyond your majesty to marry his minister. "

   There are not many relatives left in her natal family now, and there is no power behind her that can support her.

  Although the emperor thought of the old love, he made her the original wife as the queen, and made the eldest son of the two of them the prince, but this only represented the emperor's attitude at this time.

  The empress didn't know if the emperor would be able to maintain his attitude at this time, and if so, for how many years.

  She didn't even know if the emperor decided to change the crown prince one day, whether the orthodox status of their mother and son would be able to win them enough support.

  She thought about it day and night, and she felt that she and her son had no chance of winning.

  However, just as she was worrying about the safety of herself and her two sons, the emperor actually appointed one of his most trusted ministers—British Duke Ye Anlan—to their eldest son as a teacher.

  No one knew that the queen cried with joy that night, and she cried more happily than the day when her son was made the crown prince and she was canonized as the queen.

  In her cognition, the emperor can now give her and her son orthodox titles, and he can take them back anytime and anywhere in the future.

  So compared to these false names, the queen prefers those people and things that can actually bring protection to their mother and child, such as Ye Anlan, who is very capable and surrounded by a group of capable people.

   Xie Yuan asked Ye Anlan to teach the crown prince. In the eyes of the queen, this was the greatest protection the emperor gave to their mother and child.

  She was very happy, and she became more and more determined to be a virtuous queen and always follow in the footsteps of the emperor.

  However, she reciprocated the virtuous queen's style, which misunderstood the other concubines who were sent to the palace by their own family after the founding of Daqi.

  They didn't know Xie Yuan, nor the empress. Seeing the empress' behavior, they thought that their empress, whose natal family was no different from those who had no natal family, was a submissive and cowardly coward.

   Those who are more cautious, or those who have been told by their family members and are relatively obedient, even if they don't like the Queen's appearance in their hearts, they don't show it on their faces.

  They stayed put and didn't get involved in anything they shouldn't get involved in. They just wanted to please the emperor, hoping to give birth to a son and a half daughter as soon as possible.

  And those who were pampered and willful before entering the palace, or even did not bring such things as brains into the palace at all, can't wait to attack Xie Yuan's most taboo places.

  After Xie Yuan ascended the throne, in order to stabilize the court, he accepted the suggestions of the ministers and selected a total of eight people to enter the palace.

   According to their respective family backgrounds, after entering the palace, these eight people were canonized as Virtuous Concubine, Xian Concubine, Zhaoyi, Jieyu, and Beauty, of which Zhaoyi, Jieyu, and Beauty were two each.

  The one who entered the palace without brains was the prettiest one, Wang Zhaoyi who was the first to get Xie Yuan's favor when she first came. The ones who were spoiled and self-willed and loved to play young ladies were the two Jieyu who were second only to Wang Zhaoyi and Tang Zhaoyi.

One of these two is surnamed Han and the other is surnamed Xu. They were raised by thousands of Jiaobai when they were at home, and they couldn't turn the corner after entering the palace. There was a quarrel over a trivial matter, and the empress punished her. Afterwards, there were no major disasters and minor misfortunes continued. From time to time, she would be preached or punished by the palace maids sent by the empress.

  If they were just jealous for Xie Yuan's sake all the time, and a few women teased each other, Xie Yuan, the emperor who devoted himself to the previous dynasty, and the empress who aspired to be a generation of empress would only have headaches and boredom at most.

   In view of the face of the family behind them, these two will not clean them up easily, just to keep out of sight.

   But the problem is that these people really don't have a sense of propriety. Xie Yuan, his grandmother, mother, and wife are all unwilling to get involved, but these three are scrambling to intervene.

  They are not qualified to directly order a marriage, so they rely on their status as concubines to act as matchmakers.

  Those families who are afraid of them and the families behind them, even if no one in the family is willing to marry them, but in order not to offend the forces they represent, these families will basically choose to compromise in the end.

  Only a very small number of people who are clever, or really dote on their children and don’t want them to be wronged, or are quite proud and despise them for their dominance, will either tactfully or bluntly reject them.

  Of course, their refusal also paid a high price.

  If they only behaved mischievously among the candidates that their own family can frighten, Xie Yuan might not be so easy to discover the transgression of his group of concubines.

  But they didn't know if they had done too many similar things, and their courage had also grown fat. During the Winter Solstice Palace Banquet, they actually turned their ideas on several important officials in the court.

  The first to bear the brunt are naturally the young and powerful Li Jing, Ye Anlan, Pei Huaiyu and others. These three directly approached the female elders of the single nobles under the shocked eyes of the empress.

  Wang Zhaoyi, the most courageous, took aim at the most promising Li Jing. She held out her pregnant belly, which could not see any changes, and arrogantly called Li Jing's grandmother and mother to come to her to answer.

  As soon as she said this, most of the women in the palace were dumbfounded.

Not to mention how tempting Li Jing is as Xie Yuan's most trusted adviser and the current head of the civil servants of Daqi, how attractive the power in his hands is, just say that Li Jing is also a super-class Duke after all, and his grandmother and mother are of high rank. Not at all inferior to Zhaoyi, who was ranked ninth concubine.

  Everyone can't figure it out, she is a second-rank Zhaoyi, where did she have the courage to let Li Jing's grandmother and mother stand in front of her and answer?

   Is it because there is an extra piece of unformed meat in her stomach?

  The melon-eaters who had nothing to do with themselves watched the excitement silently, but Wang Zhaoyi's natal family was so frightened that they turned pale.

  The queen empress reacted the fastest. Before Li Jing's grandmother and mother came to Wang Zhaoyi, she hurried over in person and took Li Jing's grandmother back to the seat that belonged to her old man.

  Her maidservant was behind her, taking Li Jing's mother back with a gesture that could not be refused.

  Originally, Mrs. Li, who had already planned to go back and "couldn't afford to get sick", said "The empress is very old" with sincerity and fear, and returned to her seat following the empress's wishes like a benevolent one.
