Princess seize the throne from her husband's mistress

Chapter 13: Chapter 13 Su Tingwan felt wronged



Su Mansion.

When Su Tingwan heard the news that the Duke of Heng was accompanying Heng Wangfei back to her parents' home, she seemed to freeze. "A Shang clearly promised me, how could he go to Jiang Mansion? He clearly didn't care about Jiang Fenghua and promised to pick me up today..."

The wedding dress he had chosen with her on the bed was originally a pink wedding dress for a concubine. It was he who insisted on giving her the most luxurious wedding dress and the most solemn and respectable wedding in the entire Shengjing City, so he ordered a bright red wedding dress at a high price.

The maid Yinxing said distressingly, "This is the second time that the prince has broken his promise. Today is the day for the young lady to get married. How can he just send a guard to say that he can't pick up the young lady today and postpone the wedding to a certain day? The young lady of the general's mansion has been changed from a principal wife to a concubine. It's already wrong enough. How can the prince treat the young lady like this? She is just the daughter of a mere tutor. How can she compare with the young lady?"

"Stop talking, get out." She yelled at the maid.

The maid said nothing more and left the room. In order to vent her anger for the young lady, she took the initiative to inform the imperial concubine about this matter. The imperial concubine would definitely make the decision for the young lady.

Su Tingwan was sad and in tears. She sat in front of the bronze mirror, staring at herself in the mirror. She thought she was very beautiful, not inferior to the delicate women in Shengjing City. Ah Shang didn't like such pretentious women. But the scene of him and Jiang Fenghua getting married echoed in her mind. He anxiously held Jiang Fenghua in his arms, and his eyes flashed with surprise and appreciation… Ah Shang had never looked at her with such eyes.

She touched her delicate makeup and said to herself, "Is Jiang Fenghua really so beautiful? Can she be more beautiful than me? A Shang said that I was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen." She encouraged herself confidently and wiped away her tears, "No matter how beautiful she is, A Shang will never like her. I should believe in A Shang."

Su Tingwan walked to the bed and began to put on her wedding dress. The bright red wedding dress was gorgeous and she was intoxicated by it. Which woman doesn't dream of marrying the man of her dreams, not to mention that they are in love with each other.

She looked at herself in the mirror, with a charming smile on her face, "A Shang will definitely be amazed to see me like this, he just didn't see me in my wedding dress. Today I must marry, into the Duke of Heng's Estate, on Jiang Fenghua's return day. I will never give Jiang Fenghua and A Shang the chance to be alone again. The person A Shang loves is me… Su Tingwan, not Jiang Fenghua." Su Tingwan summoned the guard of the Su Mansion again, and whispered in her ear, "You go to the Duke of Heng and say..."

Today, she wants Jiang Fenghua to see with her own eyes just how much Xie Shang loves her.

-At the same time, in the palace, Imperial Concubine Su received news from her maid Ginkgo, and she was furious, "I didn't expect Jiang Fenghua to be so resourceful that she was able to convince the Duke of Heng to go to the Jiang Mansion and let Wanwan wait alone. No, I have to ask the emperor again." As she said that, Imperial Concubine Su dressed up and came to the emperor's Chengqian Palace.

Stepping into the magnificent palace, Imperial Concubine Su moved lightly with lotus steps, like a beautiful blooming flower. She was wearing gorgeous feather clothes, soft as mist, and elegant as a fairy. "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you."

The emperor's tone became gentler. "You are here, and there are no outsiders here. Please don't be polite!" Imperial Concubine Su stood up gracefully. "Your Majesty, I have made some new cakes for you. Please try them."

The emperor smiled and said, "You are so thoughtful." The emperor picked up a piece and was about to put it to his mouth, but suddenly he handed the cake to Imperial Concubine Su's lips lovingly. "My beloved concubine, you have worked hard to make cakes."

Imperial Concubine Su's face was as beautiful as a peach blossom. She smiled and took a bite, and suddenly she was shy. The emperor then tasted two pieces carelessly. "It is indeed soft, sticky and sweet. The Concubine's craftsmanship has improved!"

Concubine Su's skin was as white as snow, and her eyes were slightly raised with a touch of visible charm. Her eyes seemed to be full of emotions. She suddenly hooked her arms around the emperor's neck, "Your Majesty is busy with official duties. You haven't come to my Luanfeng Palace for a long time. I miss you." She knew that the emperor had slept with the new concubine Wang in the past few nights.

The emperor understood and put his arms around her slender waist. Although Su Qingqing was much older than Concubine Wang, she still had a pleasant and unique charm. Soon the emperor embraced her in his arms and indulged in boundless gentleness…

After that, Su Qingqing put her slender fingers on the emperor's chest with charming eyes, "Your Majesty has also seen Wanwan. She has followed her parents to the border since she was a child and suffered a lot. Wanwan only returned to Shengjing City three years ago. Now she is seventeen years old and at the age of marriage. As her aunt, I naturally have to pay more attention to her."

The emperor pretended to forget that Imperial Concubine Su had asked him to arrange a marriage between the Duke of Heng and Su Tingwan a few days ago, and said, "It's General Su's beloved daughter. The matter of her marriage is naturally not to be taken carelessly. Which boy my beloved concubine likes, feel free to get it!"

"Your Majesty!" Concubine Su shouted delicately, turned her face away, pretending to be angry, "Your Majesty is really forgetful, you didn't take me to heart."

In the harem, whichever concubine the emperor favors more, of which minister in the court will be more glorious. This seems like an unspoken signal. Obviously, in the emperor's heart, Concubine Su should not be too arrogant, nor too neglected.

The emperor hooked her chin, still feeling a little unsatisfied. Compared with those beauties who had just entered the palace, they were still younger. "My beloved concubine, you came here today for other purposes. You have tricked me."

Concubine Su quickly changed her expression. "No, I don't. I really miss Your Majesty. Wanwan's parents are both at the border. If she gets married, I will naturally let Wanwan have a grand wedding." The emperor's eyes sank slightly. No matter whether it was his wife or concubine, whether it was a grand wedding or not was up to him to decide.

She begged again, "Your Majesty, as I told you last time, Wanwan likes the Duke of Heng. Your Majesty, please give me an edict! Just give me some face and give Wanwan to His Royal Highness Duke of Heng as a concubine. Please grant her the wish, Your Majesty!"

The first time that Concubine Su came to ask for the position of princess, and the second time she came to ask for a position of concubine. The emperor could not possibly not give face to the Su family, and finally gave in, "Then ask the Imperial Observatory to choose a day, and my beloved concubine will take care of it!"

"Your Majesty, I thank you for your grace. It is better to do it today than to wait for another day. Today is a good day to get married. I will do it right away." She achieved her goal, bowed respectfully to the emperor, and left Chengqian Palace.

...

The emperor knew the Su family's plan, and summoned Eunuch Cao, "Where did the Duke of Heng go today?"

"Today is the day when Heng Wangfei returns home, and the Duke should have accompanied his Wangfei to the Jiang Mansion." Eunuch Cao said.

The emperor's eyes flashed with a hint of strangeness, "My son is quite capable!"

Eunuch Cao did not dare to say anything, and ordered his apprentice Wuxin to bring in toiletries and personally serve the emperor to wash. Wuxin is seventeen years old this year, and Eunuch Cao is very good at training him to become a capable Eunuch for the monarch. Aside from Eunuch Cao himself, Wuxin would also help serve the emperor. Other times Eunuch Cao would let reliable people do it for him. Wuxin also took Su Guifei's request for grace to heart.

...

This matter naturally did not escape the eyes of Empress Cheng. She said, "It is the rule that Shang'er goes to Jiang Mansion today. His Majesty is really confused. Su Qingqing went to sell meat once, but she didn't even care about etiquette. Let the Minister of Rites go to tell Su Qingqing about the rules. A concubine wants to marry in glory..."

Nanny Xi hurriedly persuaded, "Your Majesty, calm down. If the Minister of Rites goes, he can only go to drink wedding wine. If the matter gets out of hand, it will be disadvantageous to our prince. Instead, it will make people laugh at the Duke of Heng Estate. If your Majesty goes to make trouble for the prince again and makes him unhappy, the prince will resent you more. Since your Majesty has given this matter to the Princess of Heng to deal with, you don't have to worry about it. Whether she enters the mansion or not, this matter must be suppressed. Let the one who wants to show off go!"

Empress Cheng was persuaded. If she let someone make trouble, it would be her son who would be laughed at in the end. Neither left nor right, she just felt that her throat was strangled by someone. Who made her son like someone else?
