Chapter 359 Won
Imperial Concubine Jiang let out a soft breath. "Of course, I, too, have my own selfish desires and jealousies. Your Majesty has been exclusively favoring the Empress for so many years. Which woman in the harem doesn't harbor jealousy? Empress, I am no exception. Now that such a ready-made opportunity has presented itself before me, I, after much deliberation, have resolutely taken advantage of it."
Lan Qingwu looked at Concubine Jiang with a complicated expression. Concubine Jiang's psychology was really too complicated.
"Your Majesty, I know I am wrong. Please punish me!"
Lan Qingwu sat up slightly and said, "Noble Concubine Jiang, have you ever thought about what will happen if the balance of the harem is broken? Someone as ambitious and despicable as Jiang Yuxian will constantly stir up trouble in the harem. The other concubines will no longer abide by the rules. For power, for the sake of their family, for the position of empress, they will use all their strength. I will become very vulnerable in the harem. All the concubines will aim for the position of the central empress. If the harem is not at peace, it is very likely that the previous dynasty will be involved. Changes will lead to chaos. Have you thought about these problems?"
What's more important is that the eyes of the harem and the former dynasty are all glued to Lan Qingwu's position as queen. A dispute between the former dynasty and the harem has begun. The structure of the former dynasty and the harem will be broken and changed. How many people's lives and property will be lost like this!
Concubine Jiang's expression changed again. She didn't think too much about it. This time she just acted spontaneously. She just wanted to see what choice Emperor Shenwu would make and what the Empress would do after being disappointed.
Imperial Concubine Jiang gritted her teeth and said, "Your Majesty, I really didn't think that much. Your Majesty and you won! But I still have to say that Your Majesty had other choices, but you didn't! There is no way out! I hope you won't regret it later!"
Lan Qingwu looked at the gorgeously made-up Concubine Jiang: "I have already gotten everything I wanted, why should I regret it? Do you know..."
Lan Qingwu sighed and wanted to say more, but because of their different positions, he stopped talking: "Forget it, you and I are different!"
Lan Qingwu's last words were almost inaudible. Concubine Jiang asked in confusion, "What?"
Lan Qingwu just shook his head: "It's better not to come out recently!"
In other words, she was still under house arrest! Concubine Jiang was not surprised. The moment she made up her mind to stand by and watch, she had to bear all the consequences herself! But before leaving, Concubine Jiang was still somewhat unwilling and unconvinced! In her opinion, no one in the harem had such pure feelings and sincerity! Take herself for example. Although she also cared about Emperor Shenwu, Concubine Jiang still had her family and the Second Prince in her heart. His Majesty was so powerful and noble that he would not be easily hurt, but she needed to get protection in this complicated harem and in front of Emperor Shenwu!
After Imperial Concubine Jiang left, Lan Qingwu said softly, "In fact, I am the one with real selfish motives! Because I want this man to belong to me completely, I tolerate you in every way! Please forgive my selfishness!"
An incident that happened not long after was like a slap in the face, resoundingly hitting Concubine Jiang. It turned out that there really were people in this world who valued sincerity and the life of the Emperor Shenwu more than their own lives!
Lan Qingwu was in good health, so Emperor Shenwu discussed with Lan Qingwu that after holding the Chuxia Banquet, they would set off to return to the imperial city.
It was not an easy task for Lan Shuren, Lin Suzhi and others to revise the divorce laws.
It required careful consideration and revision, and different laws and regulations had to be formulated according to various specific situations. Lan Shuren and Lin Suzhi led a group of officials in endless discussions and formulations, sometimes working all night long.
Lan Shuren naturally enjoyed it. Mrs. Lan came to the study with the chicken soup she had cooked herself. Seeing Lan Shuren working so hard, she couldn't help but advise him: "My husband, if you want to do this yourself, please take care of yourself!"
