Concubine Qing's stand-in

The next day, Huifei took a cup of pear and pigeon soup to Daming Palace.

"Empress, the emperor is not in the palace now." Xiyue apologized.

"Aren't you here?" Hui Fei lowered her eyes sadly and bit her lower lip aggrievedly, "Aunt, I haven't seen the emperor for several months..."

Among Murong Che's concubines, Xiyue's favorite was the gentle and virtuous Concubine Hui. Seeing her so lonely, she couldn't help feeling a little distressed and advised: "Empress, you are the old man around the emperor. The emperor is a person who cares about his old love. He will not forget you."

"Is that true?" Huifei was still very disappointed.

Xiyue looked at her and felt regretful.

Why can't the emperor see such a docile and lovely woman? He devoted himself to Princess Jing'an, and I don't know how many uproars caused in the court.

"Aunt, Hui'er just asks you a question. Please tell me the truth?" Hui Fei looked at Xiyue pleaded, "Is the matter between the emperor and Princess Jing'an reported in the palace true?"

Xiyue sighed helplessly and nodded.

Tears suddenly appeared in Huifei's eyes, and she lowered her head with tears in her eyes.

Xiyue couldn't bear it after seeing Yu Xin, hesitated for a while before approaching Huifei's ear, lowered her voice and said, "Empress, don't be sad, the emperor doesn't really like Princess Jing'an."

Huifei's eyes lit up and dimmed in an instant.

"The emperor disregards human ethics for Princess Jing'an. Don't he like it?"

Xiyue whispered: "Have you heard of Qing Concubine? Qing Concubine was once the emperor's fiancée, but was later taken over by Emperor Wenchang, which made the emperor very excited. Princess Jing'an looks very similar to Qing Concubine. Maybe this is why the emperor loves her very much."

On the way back, Huifei's mind was full of what Xiyue said.

Is the Qing Concubine?

Concubine Hui smiled faintly. She was the royal palace that Murong Che entered after he went to Qizhou, so she had never seen Concubine Qing. But she heard that Concubine Qing was stunning and talented, and was a rare and strange woman, which attracted the competition between Murong Che and Emperor Wenchang.

"Ping'er, I have a way to do it except Princess Jing'an. Do you think I want to take action?" Hui Fei frowned slightly.

"Of course we have to take action!" Ping'er said, "Princess Jing'an took all the emperor's heart. If we don't find a way to get rid of her, how could the emperor remember our Huichun Pavilion?"

"I am not a person who loves to compete for favor. The imperial concubine is jealous by nature. Even if I don't take action, she will find a way to get rid of Princess Jing'an. However, Princess Jing'an is the emperor's niece. If they do such an inappropriate thing, they will ruin the emperor's wisdom. For the sake of the emperor, I should give it a boost." Concubine Hui smiled faintly, "Ping'er, go to Qifeng Palace."

As Huifei expected, Cai Jinzhi was narrow-minded and jealous. At this time, he was tying a villain in Qifeng Palace and cursing Qingli with the witchcraft technique.

"Murrong Qingli, you bitch! I'm ashamed, bitch! I'm going to stab you to death, I'll kill you!!!" Cai Jinzhi's face was ferocious and ugly, and she kept stabbing the puppet in her hand with silver needles.

"Miss, put away the things quickly. Concubine Hui is here!" Huang Rui hurriedly ran in.

Cai Jinzhi hurriedly hid the doll in the quilt, looked panicked, and asked, "What are she doing?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a plump woman in palace clothes walked in.

"I'm going to pay tribute to the imperial concubine." Concubine Hui saluted Cai Jinzhi with a smile.

"What are you here to do?" Cai Jinzhi stared at Hui Fei vigilantly.

In the past, she humiliated Concubine Hui in every way and looked down on this slut, but now she is a little afraid Concubine Hui. This round-faced woman with a simple smile looks gentle, but her methods are extraordinary. Every time Cai Jinzhi provokes her, she will be taught a lesson.

Concubine Hui covered her mouth and smiled, saying, "What's the imperial concubine nervous? I just came to see the empress. Since the emperor returned to the palace, I have never summoned the concubines in the harem. I knew that the empress was not having a good time, so I came to accompany the empress to relieve my loneliness."

"How dare you laugh at me!" Cai Jinzhi was originally a powder keg, but when she was agitated by Concubine Hui, she immediately became angry.

In her eyes, she was young and beautiful, and should have been favored by the emperor. Concubine Hui is just a bitch who is old and has long been old and has become dissatisfied, so she should have been neglected by the emperor.

Now, Concubine Hui dared to compare herself with her, and even joked that she had lost her favor. This is outrageous!

"Empress is angry, don't expose it to concubines. After all, it's not the one who took the emperor's favor. Now, I'm afraid that the emperor's whole heart is on Princess Jing'an, so how can we see us? I really only see the newcomer laughing but not the old one crying!" Concubine Hui wiped the corners of her eyes as if sad.

Cai Jinzhi's face became distorted, and she gritted her teeth and said, "Princess Jing'an, this bitch!"

"But, speaking of this, Princess Jing'an is nothing great, she is just a substitute." Huifei said again.

Cai Jinzhi heard something in her words and hurriedly asked, "What do you mean?"

"Have you ever heard of Concubine Qing? She was the emperor's fiancée. I heard that the emperor loved her very deeply. Later, Emperor Wenchang took over his wife, causing the lover to separate, which made the emperor heartbroken." Concubine Hui lowered her voice, "I heard that Princess Jing'an and Concubine Qing look very similar, and the emperor just treats her as a substitute."

"Really?" Cai Jinzhi was very suspicious.

Concubine Hui smiled and said, "If the Empress does not believe in concubines, she can go back and ask Mrs. Cai. Mrs. Cai has lived in the circle of noble ladies in Shangjing for decades and must know a lot of secret history of the palace."

When Cai Jinzhi heard this, she wished she could immediately run back to the prime minister's mansion and ask Mrs. Cai for verification.

If Huifei said it was true, that would be great! She must take advantage of this and defeated Murong Qingli, that bitch.

Huifei saw her expression and hurriedly said goodbye. Before leaving, she left with a meaningful sentence.

"Miss Cuinong beside Princess Jing'an, I look smart and clever. If the imperial concubine needs it, she can ask Miss Cuinong for help."

As soon as Concubine Hui left, Cai Jinzhi sent Rong Niang to pick up Mrs. Cai into the palace in a blink of an eye.

After Ping'er brought the news back, she admired Concubine Hui very much and said, "The Empress is so smart! I let the Imperial Concubine take action on this matter and let them fight against the clams. We can wait for the fisherman to benefit!"

"What fisherman benefits? I just don't want to dirty my hands." Huifei smiled lightly, but her eyes were full of pride.

Qingli was still lying in bed and recuperating.

Murong Che would jump out of the window to her bedroom to see her every day, and would bring some small things to make her happy. He would go back and forth so carelessly every day, and soon Empress Xiao also found out, but Empress Xiao was a little discouraged and didn't say anything else.

A few days later, Qingli's back injury was healed, and after getting out of bed, he began to jump around again.

Every day, I make trouble with Princess Mingyue everywhere. After returning to the palace at night, I secretly fell in love with Murong Che who jumped into the window. My life was quite comfortable. The only thing that was the only drawback was that I had to drink two bowls of bitter medicine every day.

Murong Che knew that Qingli had been in poor health after hemorrhage due to miscarriage, so he told the imperial physician to ask for her pulse.

The old doctor touched the goatee and said a lot of nonsense about Zhihuzheye, and then prescribed a warm and tonic prescription for her to take good care of her.

"Princess, it's time to take the medicine." Cui Nong brought up the bitter soup.

Qingli smelled the bitter smell of medicine and frowned dissatisfiedly, asking, "Didn't the medicine be cooked all the time by Cuiwei? Why did you send it today?"

Cui Nong's eyes flashed, and he lowered his head and said, "Cuiwei had something to do today, so I asked me to send it to her for her."

"oh."

Qingli didn't care either. He took the medicine bowl, pinched his nose and poured the medicine down. After drinking it, he hurriedly took a candied fruit, which made him feel better.

"Princess, when I passed by the Daming Palace today, I met Aunt Xiyue. She asked me to tell the princess to tell her to meet her at the Wanjiang River in Weishi."

"ah?"

Qingli was puzzled. They obviously met every night, so why did they ask her to meet in Wanjiang?

Cui Nong was secretly anxious and said, "Maybe the emperor wants to give the princess a surprise!"

"It's possible." Qing Li thought for a while and nodded.

Qingli was excited and asked Cuinong to help her pick a newly cut autumn outfit, combed her with a bun, put on the wooden hairpin that Murong Che gave her, and set off jumping.

Cuiwei, the girl, didn't know where she ran, so Qingli took Cuinong out.

When Qingli arrived at Wanjiang River, it was still early. Before Murong Che came, she stood by the river happily waiting.

The Wanjiang River is the longest river in the Western Jin Dynasty, which runs across the north and south, originates from Lingzhou, passes through Beijing, Yangzhou, Minzhou, and Yunzhou, and then flows through southern Xinjiang, and finally into the sea.

Although it is September now, the river water is still turbulent, and the rushing river water hits the rocks along the coast, stirring up white waves.

Qing Li didn't know the nature of water. He couldn't help but feel a little scared when he saw it, and subconsciously took a few steps back.

"laugh……"

A sneer suddenly sounded behind him, with a sharp tone and malicious mockery.

Qingli turned around in surprise, but saw Cai Jinzhi bringing Huang Rui and Rong Niang coming over, with a sharp face and a vicious look.

"How did you come to Wanjiang?" Qingli felt something was wrong and subconsciously glanced at Cuinong, who shrank in fear.

Cai Jinzhi said: "I want to talk to the princess alone. I am afraid that the princess won't come, so I asked Miss Cui Nong to help me a little."

Qingli looked at Cui Nong and felt anger surge.

Eat something outside!

If he lost the enemy, Qingli quickly calmed down, looked at Cai Jinzhi, and said lightly: "I don't know what the imperial concubine has to say to this princess?"

"Oh hehe..." Cai Jinzhi covered her mouth and smiled, "I just couldn't bear it because I saw that the princess became the substitute of Qing Concubine, so I just kindly reminded me."
