Chapter 453: Chapter 453: Teaching Grandma to Fight for Favor

Jiang Ning smiled and said, “Don’t you want to know why Concubine Xian suddenly wanted to serve in bed?”

“To gain favor. Probably for her son, the Prince of Huai.”

“Of course not! The Prince of Huai has already been deposed, no matter how much effort she puts in for him, what difference would it make? Besides, you’ve known Concubine Xian for a longer time, do you think she is such a loyal and righteous person in your eyes?”

“Then you tell me why she wants to serve in bed.”

“One of the important reasons for concubines and imperial consorts to serve in bed is to have children apart from gaining favor, status, and material needs.”

Concubine Jin laughed, “To have children? Do you know how old Concubine Xian is?”

“Over forty, not that old.”

“In the palace, women who are over thirty-five are no longer serving in bed, do you know why? They get too old.”

“Isn’t Your Highness still serving in bed?”

“…What I’m talking about is a normal situation.”

“That’s what I’m talking about, too. Normally, women over forty don’t have children. But people’s spirits can’t be suppressed.”

“So after talking for so long, you just want to say that Concubine Xian still wants to have children. What if she does? She can have children if she wants to! It has nothing to do with me.”

Jiang Ning smiled, “But if she has children, it will affect your son and daughter-in-law.”

Concubine Jin looked at her, “You’re overthinking it. Even if she really has a son, what threat can such a young child pose to you?”

“Not now, but children eventually grow up. His Majesty is in his prime, living another twenty years is not a problem. By then, Li Hongyuan will be old, and Concubine Xian’s son will be in his youth. What do you think?”

“If you can’t even compete with a child, then you really have no ability. Stop being the crown prince and move to the Prince of Yu’s residence early.” Concubine Jin said sarcastically.

Jiang Ning said, “I think being the Princess Consort is pretty good. If you go to the commoners and ask, which daughter-in-law’s status can be higher than her mother-in-law? Only I, the Princess Consort. His Majesty has so many women, the harem is like a flock of birds, I have a bunch of in-laws of various statuses, they have to bow to me when they see me. It feels quite satisfying.”

Concubine Jin:

What an annoying person!

“Is this your reason for being the Princess Consort?”

“This is just one of the benefits of being the Princess Consort.” Jiang Ning said, “And the harem is not bad, I quite enjoy living here.”

“So?”

“So I can’t leave.”

“Whether you leave or not has nothing to do with me.”

“Are you sure Your Highness doesn’t want your son and daughter-in-law to stay in the palace, where you can see them every day?”

“I don’t mind.”

“Oh.” Jiang Ning had Gucheng stop the swing, “Once my mood is bad and I move out of the East Palace, I won’t be in the mood to make delicious dishes and won’t be able to serve Your Highness every day.”

“…Are you threatening me?”

“Making food has a lot to do with one’s mood. If my mood is bad and I put too much salt or overcook the dish, can it still taste good?”

“What do you want?”

“I want to stay in the East Palace, safe and secure as the Princess Consort.”

“Then stay there and behave.”

“Then Concubine Xian shouldn’t be fighting for favor and having children.” Jiang Ning jumped off the swing and leaned against Concubine Jin, “Your Highness, you must work hard, fight back, and use all your charm to compete with Concubine Xian!”

Is there a daughter-in-law in this world who teaches her mother-in-law to fight for favor?

Simply outrageous.

“No need for you to remind me.. Mind your own business!”
