367 Palace Resentment Begging for a Monthly Ticket
Palace, Yanxi Palace
The queen leaned against the soft couch, lowered her eyes and looked at the queen kneeling in front of her coldly. Her majestic expression made the queen feel aggrieved and scared, and she couldn't help but shed tears.
"Empress Dowager, I am really wronged. After the lesson I learned last time, I never took a step forward in Kunning Palace. But today I saw that the weather was good and I wanted to walk around the yard. Unexpectedly, I happened to meet Concubine Xin. I didn't know why the earrings I was wearing fell to the ground. I happened to be stepped on by Concubine Xin so much that I almost slipped. Concubine Xin's case is too strange. Concubine is really wronged!"
The queen felt very aggrieved when she thought about it.
After the last incident, although she was jealous of Concubine Xin's joy, she did not dare to deal with that person so blatantly! But this time she was seen by the Queen Mother again!
Concubine Xin stepped on her second ring and almost slipped. Although it was a false alarm, it still alarmed the emperor and the imperial physician. Now the emperor is accompanying Concubine Xin's palace, but she wants to accept punishment and questioning from the empress dowager.
The Empress Dowager still looked at her coldly and let her keep saying that the Empress Dowager just didn't speak.
"Empress Dowager, although I am stupid, I really don't have the courage to attack the prince! I have a prince, and I know more about how much my mother values her children! I will never attack the children in Xinfei's belly! Empress Dowager, don't you think that since Concubine Xin entered the palace, there has been no peace in the harem! This or that thing happened! Don't look at Concubine Xin's young age, her scheming is really scary! She wants to force her to death! Empress Dowager, you want to make the decision for her!"
The queen said so much, but there was no substantial evidence to accuse Concubine Xin. Instead, Concubine Xin did step on the second ring that the queen had dropped and almost slipped.
Moreover, Concubine Xin has never approached the queen. How could she have the opportunity to take off the queen's earrings and throw them on the ground? Even if Concubine Xin really has the opportunity to get close to the queen, if she wants to take off the queen's earrings, the queen will not notice it?
So the queen is now unaware of her.
Seeing the queen mother's gloomy face and not talking for a long time, the queen felt even more unsure. In the past, she made others speechless, but now she was being played with by a young concubine Xin in applause! The queen definitely doesn't believe that this incident has nothing to do with concubine Xin!
"Empress, you also said before that since Linghu Manyue returned to the Marquis' Mansion, the Marquis' Mansion has been in peace, and the princes have also had a big fuss about her. Now they say that Concubine Xin has left the harem without peace! Queen, who is the problem? Is it necessary for the Ai family to say?"
The Queen Mother's words made the Queen even more aggrieved and worried.
"The Empress Dowager, it's really not what you think! I have been with the Empress Dowager for so many years, and I have never done anything to be sorry to the emperor or the empress dowager! I am dedicated to serving the emperor and the empress dowager, but I have never done it! Empress Dowager, you are the only one who can make the decision for me, you must trust me!"
The queen regrets her intestines now!
She just needs to stay in Kunning Palace for no reason! She is visiting the imperial garden! She is so flirting with a slut now, but I don’t know how that little man, Concubine Xin, complained to the emperor!
"Empress, the Ai family also wants to believe you! Well, even if you are right, have you been in vain in the harem for years? Even a teenage girl can't fight! She is still so futile, but you are making trouble one after another! You are so capable, how can you be the mother of the world? The Ai family once thought that you, the queen, was well-educated, sensible and obedient, was the blessing of the Ai family. Now it seems that the Ai family is going to cure you again and again? The Ai family is so old that they can't enjoy a little blessing. They have to worry about this and that. Queen, why don't you tell the Ai family what to do!"
The queen couldn't accept the words of the queen, so she could only kneel there and continue to wipe her tears.
"Okay, don't cry! If you have the skill, think more about how to get the emperor favored you! Why have you been in the harem for so many years, and you have never let the emperor recruit you to bed for two consecutive days? Concubine Hui, Concubine Jin, Concubine An can do it! Not to mention Concubine Xin! Only you! Queen! If you had not had Jian'er in the early years, the position of the Empress of the Celestial Dynasty might be who it is now!"
As soon as the Queen Mother said this, the Queen's heart suddenly stumbled and her tears were scared back.
"The Queen Mother!"
The queen knelt on the ground, her voice dragging tremolo.
"Okay, don't pretend to be hypocritical here. The Ai family will give you the last time for Concubine Xin. If there is another time, even if someone frames you, you will be inferior to others. The empress does not even have this ability. How can she gain a foothold in the palace? Retreat!"
Every word of the Queen Mother's words was like a sharp blade that cut off the Queen's heart. She was frightened and wanted to explain, but the Queen Mother no longer gave her any chance.
Because the Queen Mother and she knew very well, she said over and over again that there was nothing substantial evidence! If there was another time, the Queen Mother really wouldn't help her!
Thinking of this, the queen felt cold sweat on her back, and she didn't know how she left the Cining Palace.
The sun was warm outside like spring, but she couldn't feel the slightest warmth, and she felt like she was thrown into a bottomless ice cellar.
The Queen Mother said a few words and almost knocked her down on the spot.
The Empress Dowager said, why did she never let the emperor recruit her to bed for two consecutive days in the harem for so many years? Concubine Hui, Concubine Jin, Concubine An can do it! Not to mention Concubine Xin! Only she! Only her, the queen, cannot do it!
The more virtuous she is, the more she looks unconfrontational, the less interested the emperor is in her. Instead, other concubines with distinct personalities can be favored and favored by the emperor one after another.
She had to hold the queen's airs and not have any mistakes. On the other hand, she had to try her best to please the emperor. Even so, she had never entered the emperor's heart.
If she continues, she will really be unable to gain a foothold in the harem.
——
After the queen left, Concubine Hui walked out of the screen on one side. Seeing that the empress dowager closed her eyes and rested, Concubine Hui didn't bother her. She walked to the edge of the soft couch and knelt on the ground to beat the empress dowager's legs.
After pounding for a quarter of an hour, the Empress Dowager raised her hand and signaled Concubine Hui to stop.
"Okay, you can take a break."
"Empress Dowager, I am not tired." Concubine Hui replied softly. Her appearance at this moment was completely different from the careless and stupid Concubine Hui in front of people.
"What do you think of the Ai family's words that scold the queen today?" The empress dowager continued to close her eyes and rest, but the words said were testing whether Huifei had made progress.
