"Gu Ronghua is favored by the Emperor. I look much brighter to everyone in this palace."
Gu Panfu got up early today, lying on the bed and watching Xie Xiao change clothes. Xie Xiao felt like a light on his back, and his eyes were so intense that it was like a big cat licking his body. Somewhat exasperatedly, he gave Gu Panfu a French hot
After the kiss, Gu Panfu discovered that her lower lip was slightly swollen when she was dressing up and looking in the mirror. She touched her lower lip and couldn't help laughing.
Thinking that the spring morning would be cool and pleasant, I went out early and strolled slowly towards Fengyi Palace.
"I've met Concubine Jia." Gu Panfu smiled slightly and looked at Concubine Jia who stopped her.
Concubine Jia was dressed in dark green palace clothes, covered with jade. She was born in the Southern Jade Kingdom, and her love for jade ornaments almost reached the point of madness. Whenever she appeared, she would be wearing a head full of jade ornaments. She was sitting on the steps.
On top of that, Princess Nanyu no longer had the freedom and unrestrained spirit of the original Princess Nanyu, and she would no longer talk about her identity as a princess. After all, she was a titled concubine, and her life was naturally good, but she didn't have much love.
Zhao Jia had been in the palace for so many days, and no matter how stupid she was, she realized that the emperor's purpose was just for Nanyu's money. She was sad for a long time, and she felt a lot defeated. She felt that she had given up, but when she saw the emperor's love for her, she felt that she had given up.
Others can't help but feel a little sour.
"Your Majesty's dark green palace dress suits your Majesty very well." Gu Panfu could tell that there was no malice in Concubine Jia's tone, and she was willing to have a few laughs with others. She has always had a look on your face, and a look on me.
Concubine Jia smiled and went to Fengyi Palace with Gu Panfu to pay her respects.
"The Emperor's treatment of sister is really different. He remembers her even after leaving the palace." Xue Xuanshi didn't say a word until the queen came out. When he saw the queen coming, he immediately said such provocative words.
Gu Panfu glanced at Xue Xuanshi. Xue Zhichun looked a little high-spirited. She knew in her heart that Taifu Xue was appointed to preside over Enke. The Xue family, who was originally affected by Taifu Xue's impending retirement, had a sudden rise in status.
"Compared to you, the emperor treats me very differently." Gu Panfu raised a sarcastic smile. She couldn't see that Xue Zhichun's life was easy. Did she have to find something for Xue Zhichun to do? Otherwise, how could she control her mouth?
"Gu Ronghua is sharp-tongued." Yuan Chongrong was angry. The emperor went to Roufu Palace twice this month. The family was always urging her to give birth to a prince. Yuan Chongrong flicked the veil and said it.
It's easy, why did she give birth to her, and it wasn't all because of these foxy girls.
"Okay," the queen interrupted the concubines' quarrel, "Yu Ronghua has had a miscarriage and needs to rest, so you don't want to disturb her." The queen pointedly said and glanced at Xue Xuanshi.
Xue Zhichun frowned slightly and quickly relaxed.
"I have got some beautiful pearl flowers. You will all choose one later. The emperor is busy with government affairs. I hope that the harem can live in harmony and not cause trouble and upset the emperor."
"Yes, my concubine, I will only obey the Queen's teachings."
Gu Panfu returned to Weiyu Xiaozhu, holding in her hand the beaded flower that the Queen admired. It was a large hibiscus flower with a butterfly spreading its wings and about to fly. She fiddled with the butterfly's wings and smiled with her beautiful eyes: "I
Why do you look at Xue Xuanshi's smile so dazzlingly?"
"master?"
Gu Panfu shook her head, "It's nothing, go and call Mother Ma."
Mother Ma did not come so quickly, but it took a while before she opened the bead curtain and came in. Before Gu Panfu could ask, Mother Ma said: "Master, I know who the eunuch is."
This made Gu Panfu surprised, "Who is it?"
Aunt Ma didn't show off, "It's a eunuch in charge of changing candles in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, his name is Wang Zhong. When the slaves went to get the roster, they were all talking about it, saying that Wang Zhong didn't know where he had made a fortune recently.
My illness has been cured. I still have some spare money to spend on my health." It was not uncommon for the palace to discuss food and gambling in private. As long as it didn't get in front of the master, it was the acquiescence. "Slave, it sounds like something is not right.
I asked someone to pay attention and found out that last month Wang Zhong was looking for someone to lend money to my mother for medical treatment, but this month he suddenly became rich."
"Did Qiu Shui Pavilion give away money for the second time?" Gu Panfu nodded.
"Never sent it again."
"Where's the little palace maid Sasao who sent me the money?"
"Still working in Qiushui Pavilion."
Gu Panfu thought for a while, Xue Zhichun was not a person who could be threatened, and he would definitely not send money a second time. That eunuch was not necessarily Wang Zhong. She then smiled, and it was none of her business which eunuch he was.
All she had to do was reveal the news and wait to watch the show. She didn't know if Shi Xue Xuan liked the gift she gave her.
"Just do as you said before."
"yes."
Yu Ronghua's body was actually fine. She was young and young, so it was time for her to cultivate herself. The queen was generous and gave her half a month more time.
Jinse Jinxiu was afraid that Yu Ronghua would always be bored in the house and think wildly, so she persuaded her to go out for a walk.
Probably because the two of them had talked about it too many times, Yu Ronghua finally compromised. For several days in a row, he was supported by Jinse Jinxiu and walked around. The spring scenery was full of vitality, full of new life and hope, which made Yu Qianyue almost collapse.
My spirits are also much better.
On this day, a group of people passed by a rockery and heard several palace maids whispering. Jinse was about to drive them away, but heard one of the palace maids say: "This Yu Ronghua is also pitiful. He lost his child in vain."
"Who says otherwise? There are few heirs in this palace, and any more than one is a rare treasure. Alas, it's a pity, you see, Song Yunu didn't give birth either." Another palace maid answered.
"Then Princess Song was an accident. Who knew that the emperor's heir would be difficult to give birth to. Well, Yu Ronghua, that's not necessarily the case." This sentence came from a different voice again, from a palace maid wearing pink beaded flowers.
"Ah," "Oh my God,"
Jinse's footsteps paused, and she turned back to look at her master in panic. Yu Qianyue's face was pale and expressionless, and she grabbed Jinse's wrist to stop her from driving away the maids.
"You don't know, there is a eunuch in the Ministry of Internal Affairs who has made a fortune recently. He even dared to gamble, and someone asked him where he got the money." The voice of the palace maid with pink beads was full of interest, "He said he was mysterious.
He secretly said that he had done something big, and his employer gave him a large sum of money to silence him."
The palace maid turned her back to Yu Qianyue. She was so absorbed in what she was saying that she didn't even notice the expressions on other people's faces gradually becoming frightened. "Yu, Yu Ronghua!"
The pink beaded palace maid's voice stopped suddenly, she shook her body, knelt down with a plop, and turned to Yu Qianyue in a kneeling position. One after another, she kowtowed, "Ronghua forgives me, Ronghua forgives me."
, slave is talking nonsense, slave is talking nonsense.”
The palace maid was so frightened that her forehead soon started bleeding, and her whole body was shaking like chaff.
Yu Qianyue's mind was filled with thoughts of someone harming her child, and she pulled Jinse's hand so hard that it turned pale. "Jinxiu, take her to Taichen Palace." She swallowed a few mouthfuls of bloody saliva before speaking.
I barely squeezed these words out of my mouth.
Jinxiu's hands were shaking violently while holding her up, but she was soberer than Yu Qianyue, "Master, Master, it's just nonsense from a few cheap servants. We have no evidence..." "Pa," Jinxiu's words were still
Before she finished speaking, Yu Qianyue slapped her hard. The master stared at her with dark eyes, as if he wanted to eat her alive.
Jin Se, who was on the side, secretly thought something bad and said quickly: "Master, the emperor is busy with government affairs. We went there rashly without any solid evidence. It is difficult for the emperor to make the decision for his son. Master, why don't we ask the queen to give birth to a child?"
If you know the Third Prince, you will definitely understand your master’s suffering and make decisions for your master.”
Yu Qianyue seemed to have listened, and she tightened her grip on Jin Se a little. Seeing this, Jin Se continued to persuade: "Master, during your training, the Queen gave you a lot of supplements. I heard that the Queen was doing something good.
Fair...Master..."
Yu Qianyue took a deep breath: "Take this maid and go to Fengyi Palace."
When this incident broke out, Gu Panfu's letter to Gu Huasi was coming to an end. The emperor must have had some intention in mentioning her brother a few days ago. She mentioned it a little bit in the letter, which also made her brother aware. Lu Qi came in to report to the queen for summoning him.
, Gu Panfu was in a hurry to go to the theater, and hurriedly wrote the end of the letter and stuffed it into Lu Qi's hand: "It must be delivered to my brother, and no one else can."
Gu Panfu thought she had arrived quickly enough with her own speed, but to her surprise, she had almost arrived. When she saw Fu Jiu at the entrance of Fengyi Palace, she raised her eyebrows. The emperor was already here?
"Concubine, please see the emperor, please see the empress." When Gu Panfu came in, there was a palace maid with disheveled hair kneeling in the middle of the hall, and a eunuch who was kowtowing desperately.
"Get up." The queen's expression was calm, just like the emperor sitting above her.
"Wang Zhong, how dare you deceive the Queen when you ask her questions." Ziyu continued to ask, her voice stern.
"If you don't say anything, then send him to the Criminal Punishment Department." The Queen said with a cold tone.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. Your Majesty, please forgive me. The money was given to me by Yuanzi, who lived with me. My servant found out that he went out in the middle of the night and threatened him with it." When Wang Zhong heard that he was going to be sent to the punishment department, he did not dare to quibble anymore.
, replied with snot and tears.
Yongde, the chief eunuch of Fengyi Palace who was guarding the door, immediately took people to the House of Internal Affairs without his master's instructions. After a while, the eunuch named Yuanzi was lifted up. He must have struggled, his face was covered in bruises.
"Yuanzi, where did your money come from?"
Yuanzi said nothing and sat on her knees in the palace. "If you don't want to say it, then don't blame the emperor and me for punishing your nine clans." The queen glanced at Yuanzi coldly, "Here comes..."
"Empress!" Yuanzi screamed and kowtowed heavily on the ground, "The slave hired me. The slave took the money and tricked Yu Ronghua on the day of praying, causing Yu Ronghua to have a miscarriage." He turned around again.
He looked at Wang Zhong fiercely, "That night when I went out to get some money, I was bumped into by Wang Zhong and threatened by him."
After Yuanzi finished speaking, she knelt down and walked a few more steps: "Your Majesty, Queen, this slave deserves death. This slave deserves death. I beg Your Majesty, Queen, please let my family go. They don't know anything. They are innocent."
of!"
"Who ordered you?"
"I don't know, I'm a little palace maid. She says I'm from my hometown. I'm a slave. I'm obsessed..."
The queen frowned slightly, there were too many maids in the palace: "What kind of maids are they?"
Mariko had a dead look on her face. Now that the matter has come to this, what else is he hiding: "She is not very old, and she is wearing pure gray cloth. But my servant once saw a black mole on her wrist." The attire of the maids in the palace are all specific, such as
First-class palace maids like Hanlu Hanrui can wear clothes of different colors, but without patterns. The following ones can only wear fixed colors. Mariko is talking about other palace maids outside of each palace. This counts.
I'm looking for a needle in a haystack.
When the queen heard this, she glanced at the emperor. Xie Xiao said expressionlessly: "Then let's start with the maids in each palace. I want to see who is so bold."
As soon as the emperor finished speaking, the attendant beside Xue Xuan suddenly walked out and knelt down with a pale but calm face: "Your Majesty, the Queen, it was a slave who out of spite ordered Yuanzi to cause Yu Ronghua to have a miscarriage. It has nothing to do with my master.

I finally decided to use the word "yi" as the title of the heroine, because the titles in the article were all given by Xie Xiao. In the eyes of the emperor, the heroine is very suitable and just right.
emmmm, I may also enter v next week. I am currently working on my graduate thesis, and there is still a little time difference abroad. I will try my best to save more manuscripts, and I can drop qaq from time to time.
Thanks again to all readers for their support, I am really happy ~
