Chapter 41 Taking in a Beautiful Concubine
When Qing Hui woke up the next day, Lian Xueyin had already gone to court.
She had a meal at Lian Xueyin's palace and then slowly returned to her own palace.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw Jin Ling squatting next to the grass in the yard, picking flower petals. When he saw her coming back, he jumped up with bright eyes, "Princess, you are back!"
Qing Hui looked at her eyes and raised his eyebrows, "What's the excitement?"
"You guessed it right!" Jin Ling snapped her fingers, came over and whispered to her, "Do you know how lively the Duke Qi's mansion was last night? I originally asked a few people to stand guard outside their house to take a look at their house.
There was any movement. As a result, all night long, the doctor came one after another. In the second half of the night, several carriages came out. The second young master with short hair, whose hair was shaved by you, carried Qi Mingyue and got on.
The carriage then returned home. Guess where the carriage sent Qi Mingyue?"
"Prince Chen's Mansion?" Qing Hui was a little surprised.
"Yes. Several carriages went to Prince Chen's Mansion in a mighty manner. Prince Chen's Mansion opened the door, but no one dared to let Qi Mingyue in. They were in a stalemate for a full hour. It was almost dawn and everyone was about to go out. Finally,
Prince Chen's Mansion opened the side door and let the carriages in."
"I don't know who the Duke of Qi's residence has offended. Yesterday, we were not the only ones who were secretly watching. Early this morning, I went to the street to have breakfast. People were talking all over the street, saying that the man from the country who came from the Duke of Qi's residence was really
The daughter, who was madly in love with Prince Chen, fell into lovesickness, and was making trouble at home. She would rather marry Prince Chen without a title. The Duke of Qi couldn't resist her, so they had to send her in quietly overnight."
"The Duke Qi's government has been completely disgraced!"
"It's really amazing! I thought the last emperor of Eastern Qin was outrageous enough, but I didn't expect that there would be something even more outrageous!"
Jin Ling is puzzled.
Qing Hua: "..."
To be honest, she didn't even expect this development.
The Eastern Qin Dynasty had a regent like her father who controlled the government, so the emperors on the throne were replaced one after another. I don’t know if they found that resistance was useless, so they started to behave worse than the others.
p>
In particular, the previous emperor was extremely romantic and lustful, especially with young wives.
The most outrageous thing is that he fell in love with the daughter-in-law of a minister, and was afraid of the regent, so he didn't dare to rob her openly, so he sneaked into the backyard of the house and climbed over the wall to have a tryst. As a result, a passing neighbor caught Jing Zhaoyin as a thief. He was also embarrassed early in the morning.
The entire capital was lost.
Qi Mingyue and Lian Jinchen were rumored to be a match made in heaven and earth in Beijing a few years ago. Many people's eyes turned red with envy. They said that these two people were destined to be destined, and their identities and fates could not be separated. They went round and round.
Meet again.
The young King Chen met a girl who was like a goddess at the border. However, the identity gap between the two was too big. King Chen was already engaged, so the two were forced to separate due to their identities.
Unexpectedly, on King Chen's wedding day, the identity of the real and fake daughter was exposed. The goddess in his dream, whom King Chen longed for, was the real daughter of the Duke of the State, and King Chen's legitimate fiancée.
A year later, Qi Wan, who occupied the magpie's nest, died, and everyone was waiting for the lovers to finally get married.
But they didn’t want to waste three years while neither of them got married.
Some people also speculated whether it was because of Qi Wan that King Chen guarded Qi Wan for three years, and Qi Mingyue also waited for three years for the person who took her identity.
What a touching love story.
As a result, to this day, such a masterstroke has been done, which really surprised everyone.
The Duke's Mansion sent his daughter-in-law to the Prince's Mansion overnight as a concubine.
This gossip has been enough for the people of Yujing to talk about for half a year.
"Love is so worthless!"
Qing Hua twitched the corners of his lips, feeling extremely ironic.
Yesterday she just took advantage of the situation to provoke her. She thought that since the relationship between the two was stronger than Jin Jian, she should struggle. After all, with Qi Mingyue's status, it was not easy to be a concubine, and even Jin Chen could not wrong her like this.
She proposed to make Qi Mingyue the concubine, which was just to disgust them.
Oops.
Who would have thought that one of these two people would be better than the other?
Back then, Lian Jinchen wanted to steal Qi Wan's heart for Qi Mingyue.
Now it turns out that Qi Mingyue can really be allowed to be the side room, and Qi Mingyue also accepts it.
Tsk tsk.
As expected, "Love is stronger than gold",
We need to be together like this.
"By the way, how is the treatment going at Ji Congshan?" Qing Hui asked.
"It's working. His throat can already produce some simple syllables. After a while, he will be able to speak. But his wife is more troublesome. She is actually lucky. The blood demon worm in her body should be eliminated in time.
After being extracted, although one leg was lost, the effort has not been exhausted. She is now in a state of confusion, partly affected by the blood demon bugs and partly stimulated, and it is difficult to treat."
"To eradicate the influence of the Blood Demon Insect, we need the spiritual fire of Pure Yang. My father has collected a few talented people, but it will take at least a month to come from Dong Qin. Plus the time for delivering the letter, how can
It will be almost two months." Qing Hui frowned. It wasn't that she was anxious, it was just that it was unbearable to see Mrs. Ji, an ordinary person, being tortured innocently.
"You go and send a letter to my father first. If there is no better way, you can only wait for him to send someone over. Even if Mrs. Ji cannot fully recover by then, she can still avoid the consequences of being bitten by the blood demon bug.
torture."
"Okay, Princess."
"Then you can continue to watch at Qiyue. Although I believe no one dares to do anything under the eyes of Taoist Priest Yuanhe, even blood demon insects can appear in a place like Yujing. Who knows what else is going on behind the scenes?
Anyone?"
Qing Hui glanced at Jin Ling quietly and breathed a sigh of relief when she found that Jin Ling didn't suspect her.
She had to leave quietly while Jin Ling was not in the palace, otherwise she would definitely have to follow him.
She also expects someone to help her keep an eye on Qi Mingyue in Yujing City, but she can't bring the golden bell.
After sending Jin Ling away, Qing Hui remembered again that he didn't see the king last night and he didn't see him today. Could he be really angry?
Qing Hui patted his head. Yesterday, he made a special trip to the imperial dining room to prepare food and send it to Lian Xueyin's palace. However, when he saw Lian Xueyin, he forgot everything.
It's over, the king is probably really angry with her.
At this time, the king should be in the Strange Beast Park, right?
Qing Hui called a maid and asked her to go to the imperial kitchen and give instructions to prepare some food that the king liked and send it to the Garden of Strange Beasts.
She herself took the first step and went to the Garden of Strange Beasts.
As soon as I arrived at the entrance of the Strange Beast Garden, I saw Lian Xueyin, who had just arrived in the morning.
"Your Majesty!"
Qing Hui didn't expect to bump into him here, so she happily ran over and grabbed Lian Xueyin's arm, "Are you also here to see the king? When he came back yesterday, was he angry with me? I was in your palace last night,
I didn't even see him. I asked the imperial dining room to prepare delicious food for him, and I just asked someone to prepare it. He shouldn't be angry with me anymore, right? I really didn't forget him in the princess mansion on purpose.
I thought he would come back first after running away, but I didn’t expect that he was still waiting for me. It’s all my fault.”
"I won't be angry." Lian Xueyin replied.
"How do you know?" Qing Hui looked up at his mask and reached out to touch it, but did not move his mask away.
Although she thinks the mask is an eyesore, he really doesn't seem to like being remembered.
"I asked him to go to Lingquan in the back mountain for seclusion. He won't be back for the next few days." Lian Xueyin said, "It's not convenient to take him with me to Chongzhou."
"Ah,"
Qing Hui did not expect that the king was not in the Strange Beast Garden.
But...
"Lingquan retreat? Your Majesty? Is the king really a spiritual tiger?" Qing Hui was a little excited. She just thought the king was humane yesterday, but she really didn't expect that he was really a spiritual tiger.
Her father told her that the Four Spirit Continent was not suitable for spirit beasts to survive because of its thin spiritual energy and difficulty in cultivation, so there were very few spirit beasts there.
"Not really, I just opened my spiritual wisdom." Lian Xueyin replied.
"That's awesome! Your Majesty is indeed the most handsome tiger in the Four Spirit Continent!" Qing Hui was not disappointed. Spiritual beasts are rare. In the Four Spirit Continent, it is already rare to have spiritual intelligence.
"Ahem," Lian Xueyin coughed slightly as if he was a little uncomfortable, but his tone was filled with inexplicable joy, "When will we set off?"
"Huh?"
"When are you going to Chongzhou?" Lian Xueyin repeated.
Qing Hui hugged his arm, stood on tiptoes and leaned into his ear and said cheerfully: "How about tomorrow?"
"Hmm."
When Lian Jinchen came from a distance, what he saw was the scene of two people embracing each other intimately.
In the past, he would never have believed that he could meet such a docile Majesty.
But the facts were before him again, and he couldn't help but not believe it.
When he returned home last night, he carefully thought about everything that happened in the eldest princess's mansion. When he recalled the attitude of the eldest princess and the others towards Qing Hui, he suddenly realized something belatedly.
Green cypress looks like Qi Wan.
His Majesty used the reason that he had no heirs and had never accepted a concubine in these years, but he agreed to the marriage and made Qing Hui the imperial concubine.
The imperial concubine, whose position is higher than that of the deputy empress.
There is no one in the harem. Although she is not a queen in name, she is no different from a queen.
In the past, he always thought that His Majesty's marriage was because of the alliance between the two countries, but His Majesty never mentioned such a major event in the court. He only issued a decree to make peace, and there was no other content in the peace talks.
Qing Hui and Qi Wan looked similar, and he always thought it was a coincidence.
But it looks like a coincidence. Is it really a coincidence that His Majesty married her?
That year on the Yunguang Stage, His Majesty, who had always been unkind and merciless, gave Qi Wan a gold leaf, and also gave her a piece of paper and a letter of departure.
At that time, he was shocked by Qi Wan's jumping off the Yunguang Platform, so he didn't think much about it afterwards.
But when these various facts are connected today, does it mean that Qi Wan knew His Majesty back then, and His Majesty might also be interested in her.
But for some reason, he did not summon Qi Wan into the palace.
If Qi Wan really enters the palace, does that mean... that she won't die?
Lian Jinchen was shocked by the fact that His Majesty might be interested in Qi Wan, and was also worried about what would happen if His Majesty accepted Qi Wan.
Lian Jinchen was about to step forward but stopped before turning around and leaving.
When Qing Hui returned to his palace, he immediately saw Lian Jinchen, who seemed to have been waiting for a long time.
