Chapter 1079: Taking from the People and Destroying Them (1)

Yes, it was.

Something was not right.

There had never been a concubine who could control the key to the country’s treasury.

No consort could hang military power around her neck.

No concubine could smash walnuts with a jade seal since she was young.

No imperial concubine could wet the bed on the dragon bed, or even make His Majesty embroider her flowers or rush her homework.

She was the only one who had such preferential treatment.

Not only were the madams in the backyard shocked.

Even the imperial court was extremely uneasy.

“It’s a good thing that His Majesty treats the young lady of the Jiang family differently. His Majesty has been on the throne for nearly ten years, but there’s no one in the harem…” Lord Xie frowned. His father, the Grand Tutor Xie, had once said that Miss Jiang had done the Xie family a great favor.

“Thank you, sir. It’s a good thing that His Majesty has been enlightened. However, to dote on a woman so much, I’m afraid the disadvantages outweigh the benefits.” His Majesty was too brainless in front of her.

They had only met once in the royal study, but they felt that the Emperor had been forced to lose his intelligence in front of her.

What if they got married? His Majesty probably treated her like an ancestor all day long.

“I don’t agree. If His Majesty wants to marry the daughter of the Jiang family, she must not be his heir. Moreover, if she were to enter the palace, the Emperor would have to favor a few more people. We can’t let her be pampered alone.”

The lords discussed animatedly.

Although he had never seen the Emperor interact with the young lady of the Jiang family in private, he felt that the Emperor seemed to be completely suppressed by that young lady today.

He did not know if it was an illusion.

“You speak as if you can change His Majesty’s decision. The palace gate was right there. If you have any objections, feel free to voice them. It was nothing more than a few more corpses of loyal officials who had died in the throne room. In the years that His Majesty has been on the throne, haven’t there been a few people who have been killed?” Lord Xia pouted.

Everyone glared at him. ” You’re still pretending to be obedient after getting a bargain. You’re not like your father at all! ”

Lord Xia rolled his eyes. Oh, oh, oh, personal attacks?

The officials discussed in private, but the Guan family was in a mess.

“How is that possible? His Majesty was so cold and indifferent. How could he save her face? Her body…He can even do this!” Guan Yingying gritted her teeth.

“The expert clearly said that I was the one with the phoenix fate!”

Guan Yingying was so angry that she smashed the exquisite teacup on the table.

His eyes were filled with coldness.

Madam Xiao’s expression was also ugly. How could she admit that she had made the wrong choice back then? She had clearly personally chosen it in her sleep. That Jiang Huailu could not compare to her Yingying in any way.

How could she be worthy of His Majesty’s preferential treatment!

“Don’t worry, you are the bright moon in the sky, Jiang Huailu is just mud on the ground, how can you compare to my son? Have you forgotten what the expert said?” Madam Xiao hurriedly comforted her.

Guan Yingying took a deep breath, and after a while, her tears fell.

“Mother, I just don’t want to accept this. What was so good about Jiang Huailu that the Emperor only had eyes for her? It was as if he had been bewitched. Yingying knew from a young age that she had a responsibility. Only when I marry His Majesty will the Great Zhou be at peace. Yingying has never had any selfish motives.”

Guan Yingying cried pitifully, and Madam Xiao’s heart ached.

He hated Jiang Huailu even more.

Not only did His Majesty value Jiang Huailu, but even her reputation among the people was extremely high.

On the day of her birthday, the Young Master of the Yang Family had set up disaster relief centers all over the world. This congratulatory gift was only sent back a few days after she came of age.

This made her reputation reach an unprecedented height.

She was the richest person in the world. She had provided disaster relief countless times and saved countless people.

It was the will of the people.

A cold glint flashed across Madam Xiao’s eyes.

What was taken from the people could also be destroyed by the people!

Jiang Huailu, let’s see how long you can laugh!
