Chapter 208 Resentment
This, how is this possible?
She went to the government office early this morning to frame Bai Songrong, so she didn't know about the news.
Imperial Concubine!
Concubine Chen became the Imperial Noble Concubine!
Doesn’t that mean Concubine Yu has fallen out of favor?
If Concubine Yu falls out of favor, wouldn't the Crown Prince be... in even greater danger?
Thinking of this, Shen Bishui felt her mind was in turmoil. When she looked up, she saw Tang Wanru walking up to her.
Seeing her anxious look, Tang Wanru smiled calmly: "Crown Princess, you can't take my brother away today."
"After Concubine Yu fell out of favor." She moved closer to Shen Bishui's face and stared into her eyes, "Who do you think will be the next to suffer?!"
Prince!
Shen Bishui felt her chest heaving violently. That couldn't be the prince!
Thinking of this, Shen Bishui gave Tang Wanru a vicious look. The look was extremely vicious.
She shouted angrily, "Let's go!" Then she turned around and left.
Tang Wanru looked at her back and raised a scornful smile at the corner of her lips.

Ningyu Palace.
Crown Princess Shen Bishui walked in quickly. She ignored the maid's words that the imperial concubine was taking a nap and went straight into the palace.
In the inner hall, Concubine Yu was lying on her side with her eyes closed and resting, while a maid was kneeling on the bed massaging her shoulders.
It looks like he didn't fall asleep either.
Shen Bishui was anxious, and didn't care whether she was asleep or not, and asked directly: "Mother, I heard that Concubine Chen was promoted to Imperial Noble Concubine, what's going on?"
Concubine Yu was silent for a moment, and replied coldly: "You have heard it all, why are you asking? It is just what you think it is."
"Mother." Shen Bishui saw that she didn't seem to be in a hurry, so she sat down on the bed and said, "Hasn't that Concubine Chen always been silent and dull and out of favor? How come she suddenly became the Imperial Concubine?"
Imperial Concubine Yu took a deep breath, and said with her eyes still closed: "At the Epiphyllum Party last night, she somehow came to her senses and dressed up deliberately. She also showed the burns she had suffered while saving the emperor many years ago. She charmed the emperor for a while, and she slept with him last night. After that, this news came out this morning."
Shen Bishui was even more puzzled when she heard this. She asked, "Aren't you pregnant, mother? How come you couldn't seduce the emperor even though you had this bargaining chip, and you let him sleep with someone else?"
"What should we do now?"
"Once Concubine Chen is favored, the position of King Wei will be more secure. Once you fall out of favor, your Highness's future will be more difficult!"
Concubine Yu was already unhappy about the news, and she became even more furious when she heard what she said. What did she mean by this?
Is it her fault that the prince has ended up like this?
"Bishui, it was the prince himself who lost power because of his arrogance, extravagance and debauchery. I have tried to persuade him many times but failed, and that is why he has ended up like this." Imperial Concubine Yu said coldly, "It is not because of my loss of favor."
After hearing this, Shen Bishui knew that she was wrong. She said, "Mother, that's not what I meant. What I meant was that since the prince has reached this point today, we should work together to protect him."
"Now that you have fallen out of favor, the child in your belly has also fallen out of favor. Not only will this not help the prince, but it will also add fuel to his fire."
Concubine Yu: ...
Even the maid who was massaging Concubine Yu stopped her movements silently. This Crown Princess is really crazy.
Concubine Yu couldn't stand it any longer. She stopped massaging and sat up with a bang: "Shen Bishui! I got pregnant and gave birth to a child here at an old age just to protect the Crown Prince, but now you blame me for adding fuel to the fire? If you had fought a little harder and given birth to a child for the Crown Prince, the Crown Prince's position wouldn't be as precarious as it is now. You can't give birth to a child, but you come here to blame me. It was my biggest mistake to let the Crown Prince marry you, a chicken that can't lay eggs!"
Shen Bishui: ...
Shen Bishui froze there, she was stunned by Concubine Yu's scolding...
The maid's movements also froze. She didn't expect Concubine Yu to speak out her true feelings directly.
These words hit Shen Bishui's heart directly, and she clenched her fingers silently.
After Imperial Concubine Yu finished her words, she realized that she had gone too far. She calmed down and lay down again.
Shen Bishui's eyes darkened, and she whispered, "Mother, I didn't mean to blame you for what I said just now."
Concubine Yu looked at her sullenly and said, "Forget it. Mother just said it casually. Don't take it to heart."
Shen Bishui said nothing more.
"Bishui, things have come to this point. Concubine Chen has already received the favor of the emperor and has taken the position of Imperial Noble Concubine. There is no point in saying more. Now we can only take it one step at a time and make plans later." Concubine Yu said.
Shen Bishui nodded: "I understand, mother."
Coming out of Ningyu Palace, Shen Bishui's face was very gloomy. Concubine Yu's words were like a knife stabbing into her heart.
No birth! No children!
Shen Bishui gnashed her teeth in hatred. She clenched her fingers tightly and looked up to see a woman with a bulging belly walking towards her holding a basin of water.
The woman's belly was half full, and she looked like she was four or five months pregnant.
Shen Bishui stared at her stomach with resentful eyes, feeling the anger rising from her heart.
Why can others get pregnant?
It's just that she can't do it!
Thinking of this, she gritted her teeth and suddenly walked quickly towards the woman.
The woman was Tang Yue'er.
