Chapter 3 The concubine makes things difficult

When Yu Yunxi came to the front hall, she saw an old woman sitting there in plain clothes. She had her eyes closed, twirling Buddhist beads in her hand, and chanting something.

She should be Concubine Ning, who was the most favored concubine in the harem back then, and is now Concubine Ning.

Hearing the noise, Concubine Ning slowly opened her eyes and looked at Yu Yunxi with an appraising look.

"Yunxi has met the Dowager Empress." Yu Yunxi blessed herself and saluted meekly.

"What else do you call me Concubine? I call you Concubine Mother. Yesterday's wedding was too hasty and I feel sorry for you." Concubine Ning waved to her with a very gentle tone.

Yu Yunxi couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. Is the concubine so kind to a person born as a concubine?

Lowering her eyes, suppressing the doubts in her heart, she slowly walked to the other party's side.

"Good boy, my concubine will definitely be very resistant when she knows you are marrying into the Prince Regent's Palace..." Concubine Ning took Yu Yunxi's hand and patted the back of her hand lovingly.

Yu Yunxi's expression became weird, so... Did Concubine Ning plan to prevent her from being buried?

"But," Princess Ning's tone suddenly changed, "Now that you have entered the Regent's Palace, it is your destiny! If Li'er cannot wake up because of your blessing, then you can only go underground to take his place first.

Exploring the path."

A murderous look flashed across her eyebrows.

When Yu Yunxi heard this, she felt extremely helpless. Fortunately, she had thought that Concubine Ning was kind and kind, but it turned out to be just her illusion.

On the other side, other people's lives are nothing compared to her son's!

"Princess, it's time to serve tea to the Dowager Empress." Nanny Liu reminded her in a bad tone beside her.

Yu Yunxi was helpless, but she still reached out to take the tea, and then slowly knelt down.

"Mother-in-law, please have tea."

Concubine Ning took a deep look at her and found that she could find no fault with her manners, so she was willing to take the tea.

After taking a sip of tea, she remembered something and began to remind her coldly: "You are a concubine of the Prime Minister's Palace. You have not been taught since you were a child. Your etiquette is definitely not as good as that of a daughter from a serious family, but the Ai family still hopes that you will remember it."

My current status must not bring shame to the Regent's Palace..."

"Also," her voice was slightly raised, and her eyes became a little unkind, "you must not imitate that wretched mother of yours. The Ai family heard that your mother was the daughter of a merchant and came from the south of the Yangtze River.

Not to mention despicable, you dare to hook up with the guards after becoming the aunt of the prime minister's palace. Otherwise, your father wouldn't hate you mother and daughter so much..."

"My mother has never done anything that crosses the border!" Yu Yunxi, who had been extremely docile just now, suddenly raised her head and interrupted Mrs. Ning's words in a cold voice.

Her body was trembling slightly, and her fingers were curled into fists under her long sleeves.

My mother was framed back then!

My mother was such a good person, but she was force-fed poison and her body was dumped in a mass grave before she could be corrected.

"Oh, you dare to talk back? The Ai family just gave you some kindness. It was for the sake of Li'er. Since you have become the daughter-in-law of the Ai family, you have to listen to the Ai family's lectures! If it weren't for you

That bastard mother saved Taizu back then, do you think you can survive safely in the Prime Minister's Mansion until now?"

The concubine sneered, and her face became a little gloomy.

"Mother and concubine, Yun Xi heard that the prince is a great hero before coming to the palace. Yun Xi thought that as the prince's mother and concubine, you should also be able to distinguish right from wrong. You would never let someone else's words lead you to someone else.

, Listen to the rain, it’s rain!”

Yu Yunxi took a deep breath, stood up from the ground, and spoke word by word.

"Presumptuous, are you saying that the Ai family doesn't distinguish between right and wrong?" Concubine Ning narrowed her eyes, anger appearing on her face.

"The mother-in-law has been in the harem for many years, so the trapping methods are terrible. My mother came from the south of the Yangtze River, and her family members have passed away long ago, but the dowry she brought far exceeds that of many female relatives in the capital. Moreover, she also has medical skills and often enters the palace.

She was highly praised by Taizu for her medical treatment. In this way, it is normal for her to arouse the jealousy of others and be plotted against her. Concubine, what you see with your eyes may not necessarily be believed, let alone what you hear."

Yu Yunxi's words were more sad and angry than the last.

Her mother is the best mother, and she will never allow others to tarnish her reputation!

"Shut up!" Concubine Ning slapped the table in annoyance.

Just when she was about to give the order to be slapped, a loud shout came from outside: "The emperor has spoken."

Hearing this, she could only suppress her plan to teach Yu Yunxi a lesson, and she said fiercely: "Someone is coming from the palace, please be smart for the Ai family and don't bring shame to the palace, otherwise the Ai family will never

Be gentle!"

Soon, several figures appeared at the door.

Aunt Liu quickly helped Mrs. Ning up.

"Ms. Toffee, why do I have to ask you to get up? Please sit down quickly."

The person who came was Eunuch Lin De. As a popular person around the emperor, he was a good person. As soon as he came in, he went straight to Concubine Ning.

"The Ai family is fine," Concubine Ning shook her head slightly and continued, "Eunuch Lin, why did the emperor send you here?"

"Replying to the Concubine, the Imperial Master has sent another message. He will not be able to return to Beijing until two days later, but he specially ordered someone to send the cold jade coffin first." Lin De answered patiently.

Cold jade coffin? Concubine Ning looked suspicious.

"The imperial master told the emperor in the letter that the regent's body was weak and his soul was weak, so he had to be put into a coffin made of cold jade, and then nailed with long nails, so that his soul and mind could be concentrated and he would wake up as soon as possible." Lin

De said patiently.

"No, the prince is still alive. If we put him in the coffin now, how can he still breathe?" Yu Yunxi thought it was ridiculous when she heard it, and she loudly dissuaded him.

This time, Linde's probing eyes fell on her.

"Who are you……"

"She is the new princess." Concubine Ning glanced at Yu Yunxi angrily.

That look was clearly reproaching her for not knowing etiquette.

However, Yu Yunxi's words also reminded her. She was silent for a moment, and then asked Lin De doubtfully: "Eunuch Lin, that cold jade coffin is cold. If it is sealed, if there is something wrong with Li'er inside, the Ai family...

…”

"Concubine, don't worry," Lin De shook his head and said calmly, "The imperial master said that the cold jade coffin was left to him by his master. It is a treasure for healing diseases. If a person lies in it, he will only

Benefit.”

"Did the Imperial Master really say that?" Listening to Lin De's words, the worry on Concubine Ning's face gradually diminished.

"That's natural. The imperial master has always been concerned about the regent's situation. He left the capital this time to find the cold jade coffin."

"Then why don't you hurry up and send it to the prince so that he can lie down in it!"

When Concubine Ning heard this, she felt as if she had grasped a life-saving straw, and she quickly gave the order.

"Yes, the concubine." Lin De nodded, and then led his men, holding long nails, to carry the cold jade coffin to Feng Yili's yard.

Yu Yunxi was a little panicked and wanted to stop him.

Sensing her thoughts, Concubine Ning's face darkened.

"Come here, look at the princess. She is not allowed to step out of here without an order from the Ai family." She ordered coldly.
