She thought that Concubine De was trying to scare her, but when she calmed down, she thought about it. Last time the concubine punished her, her family didn't say a word. This time when something like this happened, her uncle only sent in four cold words. That's right.
, after all, she is not Suo'etu's biological daughter, after all, she is just an orphan who lives in the care of others. One day, she will be abandoned by her family, and she will really have nothing.
Ping Guiren sat on the bed and didn't move until late at night. She was still young. Although she thought she was quite tall and arrogant, she was new to the world. It seemed that she had just woken up at this moment. Why on earth could she be so domineering in this palace?
?The prince has been in the palace for almost a year, and his aunt and nephew have hardly spoken to each other.
"Master, it's very late, please go to bed. Change the medicine on your forehead before sleeping, otherwise it will leave scars." The palace maid came to remind her to sleep well. Ping Guiren looked at them straightly and asked inexplicably, "
Is the child Zhang promised still there?"
The palace maid lowered her head, and was very frightened. She couldn't remember who signed the contract and agreed to be whipped, but everyone could see clearly that Ping Guiren kicked her up. Now she said tremblingly: "I think as long as I don't
If people come to our yard to cause trouble, they should be fine."
Ping Guiren nodded: "I wish she was stillborn, but for my own safety, let her give birth to the child. Anyway, after giving birth, I don't know if it will grow up."
Hearing such vicious words in the middle of the night, the palace maid felt a chill on her back. She did not dare to talk any more. She was waiting for Mr. Ping to wash and change his dressing. Suddenly, she grabbed her arm and said, "Follow me and help me."
If my family can't count on me, I have to earn some face on my own. After all, I am the queen's sister and the prince's aunt. They will never do anything to me."
The palace maid looked at the ferocious look in her eyes and couldn't help but shudder. She nodded tremblingly and agreed: "I will remember this."
After such a night of peace, Ping Guiren was grounded by the imperial concubine last year. This time he had to close the door to recuperate because of his brain problems. The order was given by Concubine De of Yonghe Palace. For many years, Concubine De of Yonghe Palace only walked around Cining Palace and ignored the trivial matters of the Sixth Palace.
The first time the concubine taught the concubines, she targeted the arrogant Ping Guiren. Although there was no punishment mentioned above, the news of what happened had already spread throughout the Sixth Palace. Concubine De's bad words gave her a lot of punishment in the past.
The nobles and the idle people all applauded secretly.
But another voice quickly became lively. Rumors about Concubine De falling out of favor have become more and more intense in recent days. Concubine De punished Ping Guiren at the critical moment, which made people's eyes brighter. By the way, Zhang Yaosheng who came out of the palace with her was also happy.
I thought that if Concubine De fell out of favor with someone else, the opportunity would come. However, after the court broke up the next day, the Qianqing Palace took Concubine De in a soft sedan chair and took Concubine De gracefully away.
The soft sedan passed by the gate of the Qian Palace. The palace people inside saw it and silently passed the words in. Qinglian was holding the decoction and was about to go in to serve the imperial concubine to drink the medicine. When she heard about it, she couldn't help but frown and told everyone: "Don't be here, my empress."
Bring it up in front of you, let’s talk about it later when asked.”
When the imperial concubine entered the door, she was leaning forward. There was no such farce as yesterday from Chengqian Palace. It was actually because the imperial concubine was not in good health. She was always sick these days. The imperial doctor checked and said she was weak. When Tong Guowei did something outside,
The doctor came into the palace to diagnose and treat his daughter. He said that his impetuousness had hurt his heart and liver when he was young. He had been very hard to worry about for his fourth elder brother these years. Coupled with several miscarriages and a difficult childbirth, his body was almost empty. These words
The doctor Tong Guowei hired dared to say it, but the imperial doctor in the palace did not dare to say it.
The imperial concubine frowned and drank the medicine. Suddenly she saw Xiao Hezi running back with the fourth brother. She asked anxiously if something happened in the study, but Xiao Hezi smiled: "The fourth brother sent the slave back and said that the empress should take the medicine when she arrives.
Please take your medicine on time, please don't delay."
"This child is not concentrating on studying and is thinking about what I am doing." The imperial concubine felt warm in her heart and did not care about the bitterness in her mouth. She asked Qinglian to reward Xiaohezi and teach him a lesson, "Follow the fourth elder brother well and don't cause the fourth elder brother to get into trouble.
Good old brother, I will give you a lot of rewards. If you don't serve the master well, I will tear your bones apart."
Xiao Hezi smiled naively, Qinglian grabbed a handful of coins and gave him a handful of coins, and sent him back to the study to serve the young master well. When he came back, he smiled at the imperial concubine and said: "Your Excellency, you carefully selected this Xiao Hezi. He is really useful. Six
After my elder brother’s accident, Xiao Hezi said that from now on, whenever he gives Si elder brother something to eat outside, he will taste it first for his master, and the servants were touched after hearing this.”
"If he follows Yinzhen well, the whole family can count on him to live a good life in the future. He has taken the trouble to choose this little Hezi." The imperial concubine smiled happily. Thinking of home, she couldn't help but think of the little nobleman who made a fool of himself, and laughed.
He said, "Sou Etu is such a shameless person, but he let his niece enter the palace and destroy the lintel of their family. This little Hesheli is really stupid."
Qinglian heard these words, glanced at the imperial concubine quietly, packed her things and left, and called everyone to come to her and ordered: "Don't mention the matter of Concubine De being taken away by the emperor in front of the empress. It's easy for the empress to take care of her health.
It won’t be too late to hear anything in a few days.”
She ordered like this, and no one dared to make a mistake. The imperial concubine's temper was not easy to offend, and everyone in Chengqian Palace knew it. The reason why Qinglian glanced at her master just now was because she felt that time had passed, and the imperial concubine could now make fun of Ping Guiren.
Stupid, in fact, she was not like this back then, and was even more violent and paranoid, so much so that she was now rewarded for this disease, but she seemed to have forgotten it, it would be better to forget it.
Let's talk about the Qianqing Palace's sedan chair that picked up Lan Qi. It seemed that considering that Empress Dowager De was pregnant, the sedan moved like a tortoise. For a long time, Lan Qi raised the curtain and didn't see how far she had gone. When she got impatient, she asked.
Wherever we go, Eunuch Liang, who is accompanying us, will only smile: "My dear, wait a moment, we are almost there."
Lan Qi remembered that she had been picked up by the emperor several times and had visited many places. The most profound thing in her memory was the vast white snow in front of the Hall of Supreme Harmony. But what happened yesterday had already passed by in a blink of an eye.
After the sedan finally stopped, Lan Qi felt that the place she was in seemed familiar. The Forbidden City was so big that most of the concubines only walked in the harem and rarely came to places other than Qianqing Gate. This was the seat of government and women could not set foot there easily, but Lan Qi
I remember that she seemed to have been here before. When I looked up at the plaque on the door, the words "Wenhua Palace" evoked a memory of the past. I couldn't imagine that the ruins of the past had now regained their majestic and solemn appearance, and with it
The opposite Wuying Hall is finally complete.
"Your Majesty, the Emperor is inside. After the Wenhua Palace was repaired, the Emperor came back for the first time. He will come here with the ministers after today." Eunuch Liang led the way for Concubine De. Lan Qi walked very slowly step by step with her belly held out.
In addition to considering my health, I also wanted to take a good look at the scene here. But after hearing Eunuch Liang's words, he suddenly stopped and said, "Is it appropriate for me, a female prostitute, to come here before the minister of civil and military affairs?"
Eunuch Liang was confused by the question, so Lan Qi sent him: "Go and ask the emperor again."
The person who went there came back soon and said that the emperor asked her to go in with peace of mind. Eunuch Liang even said: "There are countless maids and eunuchs who come to clean up. Please tell me, how do we calculate this?"
Only then did Lan Qi put down the burdens in her heart and enter again. The buildings in the Forbidden City were all the same, and the Wenhua Palace was nothing special. It was only because she had seen the ruins of the past that she was shocked by what she saw.
The emperor stood in the court, wearing only a black dragon-patterned robe. He was tall and tall, and he looked handsome and majestic. Seeing him like this, Lan Qi immediately untied the cloak and handed it to Huan Chun behind him, dressed in coral.
Wearing a robe of silky color and fine brocade, she slowly walked towards him.
The two of them hadn't seen each other for a long time, but they had always seen each other on big occasions during New Year's Eve gatherings. Although they didn't feel the emotion of seeing each other again after a long absence, their moods were different now. When their eyes met, ripples were created in their hearts. That day, Xuan Ye took Lan with him.
Qi came to see the ruins of the Wenhua Palace. The emperor at that time no longer existed, and the current concubine is no longer what she used to be. She has lost all her youthfulness with the passing years. She is becoming more and more calm and reserved in her thirties, and she is a Qionghua.
Blooming in the most beautiful years.
Taking a closer look, the conflict between them seems to always be because one of them thinks too much about the other; taking a closer look, regardless of the unavoidable existence of the concubines in the Sixth Palace, there never seems to be anything important between them that is worthy of disagreement.
"I've been waiting for you for half an hour, and you're still dragging your feet when you get to the door?" Xuan Ye muttered, with a warm smile on his face. He watched Lan Qi salute, stretched out his hand to help her, and touched her weak
Arms, he even smiled and said, "It's not that thin, that's good."
Lan Qi lowered her cheeks slightly and said softly: "That sedan came all the way slowly, not as fast as my concubine. The emperor has been waiting for a long time, no wonder I am my concubine."
"How powerful you are now, but I didn't know that you would hit someone?" Xuan Ye seemed to frown, but he smiled fondly at her. Lan Qi looked at her and said, "It's just a push, it doesn't matter.
Take action?"
Xuan Ye said slightly seriously: "But why do you bother? If something happens to you, what should you do?"
Lan Qi looked into his eyes quietly. It had been a long time since they had looked at each other so close. She felt that there was a fine line in the corner of Xuan Ye's eyes. After all, he was in his thirties. Although he no longer had the high-spirited youth, the years were on his face.
After honing the charm of a man, she just looked at it like this, and her heart skipped a beat, and she let go of all the discomfort in her heart. She had always been greedy for her husband. When she loves someone, she can't help but want to tolerate everything about him. She really wants to tolerate everything about him.
In my own eyes, everything about him is so beautiful.
"What happened before was my fault. Your Majesty, please don't worry about it." Lan Qi spoke softly, covering his chest with one hand and said, "These days, I have been thinking whether our relationship is over like this.
.”
Without the titles of superiority and inferiority, the distance between them was one step closer. Xuan Ye smiled slightly, tilted his head slightly and asked: "What else?"
