Chen Xiaolian nodded vigorously, stepped aside, hid behind the tree and quietly looked at the door.
The person who opened the door was a young eunuch who shouted impatiently, "Why are you here if you don't sleep in the middle of the night? Which palace are you a slave to?"
"Eunuch... this servant belongs to Concubine Shu. I want to see Concubine Shu if I have something to do!"
Can my father-in-law be accommodating and let me in?"
When the young father-in-law at the gate heard that he was from Concubine Shu, he immediately smiled and said, "It turns out that he is from Concubine Shu's side. I'm sorry, so let's go in quickly."
Our mother-in-law has already gone to bed at this time, so let’s go and report it now!”
After the little eunuch finished speaking, Pei Dian'er Pei Dian'er went to report that Zhao Yurou was woken up from her sleep and shouted with an unhappy face, "Is Concubine Shu sick? Why did you ask me to stay up so late at night?"
"Your Majesty, that little girl said she belongs to Concubine Shu. Concubine Shu is now almost the same as the Queen. We can't afford to offend her!"
Zhao Yurou sat up in a daze, walked out of bed with bare feet, stretched out and came to the front hall.
"What good can come of looking for me in the middle of the night? Just let her in!"
"Slave, go and call me right now!"
The little eunuch ran in in a panic, and then ran away in a panic. After a while, Chen Xiaolian and Xiao Cui, the master and the servant, walked in one after another.
"I have seen Concubine Rou"
As soon as Chen Xiaolian came in, she hurriedly knelt down on one knee to salute her. After Zhao Yurou heard the voice, she was stunned for a few seconds, then looked at her and said, "Isn't this the sister of Concubine Shu? She came to my palace to look for her in the middle of the night.
What's wrong with me?"
Zhao Yurou didn't have a very good impression of the woman in front of her. After all, she was Concubine Shu's sister. If Concubine Shu and Concubine Lian hadn't talked nonsense, the empress would not have been thrown into the cold palace. Naturally, she would not look down upon her sister when she saw her.
look.
"Chen Concubine is indeed Concubine Shu's sister, but Concubine Shu does not recognize her as a sister.
Concubine Rou, I will tell you the truth, I came to you today with something important, and I want to ask for your help!"
Zhao Yurou looked at her pitiful appearance, and then thought of Concubine Shu's ugly face. The two sisters looked exactly the same, even their watery lotus faces were so similar.
"Sister, please get up quickly. Your sister is a concubine. I am just an ordinary concubine. If you have anything to do, you can just go to your sister. Why come to me?
Moreover... I really have no sense of presence in this palace, I am just a decoration!"
Zhao Yurou waved her hands impatiently, thinking that the two sisters were colluding to bring her here, and she must not be fooled by them.
"Sister Roufei... I know you are kind-hearted. I beg you to save me. My sister has never had a good relationship with me.
It can be said that he hates me very much, because my mother and her mother don't deal with each other in the Wei family, so she doesn't take me seriously at all.
Concubine Shu has never regarded me as her sister. She went to find me just now because she wanted to kill me. The only person I can turn to now is you.
I know that the Queen has been framed, and as long as you agree to help me, I will definitely find evidence that Concubine Shu and the others framed the Queen!"
In order to save her own life, Chen Xiaolian had to betray Concubine Shu. Who made that woman want to take her own life?
"Stop talking nonsense here, even if you two have great hatred, you are still half-sisters.
Moreover, your sister's power in this palace is second only to Concubine Lian.
If I believe your lies, I can't afford to harm the Queen!"
Zhao Yurou walked up to her and helped her up, patted her hand and said with a smile, "Sister, seeing you look so pretty, please don't do such a despicable thing.
If you harm others, you will be the next one to be harmed. We stay in this harem and know how it feels to have a new generation replace an old one, so please be merciful!"
"Empress Roufei, you really have misunderstood. I have never wanted to harm you!"
Chen Xiaolian looked at her helplessly, her eyes full of helplessness, and her tearful look was very endearing.
"I know you have never thought of harming me. Is this all your sister's idea? Your sister asked you to come here to frame me?
Can't everyone treat each other sincerely? The Queen has been put in the cold palace by you, and now you have no way to change, and you want to punish me?
I have always been a spectator, but I am the one in the drama!"
Zhao Yurou looked at her impatiently and shook her head, muttering in her heart that this woman was really good at acting. In order to convince herself, she even said such words.
No matter what, they are still sisters. What does he have to do with them?
There is no relationship at all, it can only be said to be a relationship of interest. The two sisters wish they were dead.
"Concubine Shu, what should I say to make you believe it? Concubine Shu came to me today because she wanted me to get close to the emperor according to her arrangement.
I have inquired before, and those who take the initiative to harass the Emperor without His permission will not end well. I am really scared!"
Chen Xiaolian couldn't stop her tears from flowing out. The only person she could trust now was the person in front of her.
Concubine Zhao Yurou and Concubine Shu, Concubine Lian had never dealt with her. She was a close confidant of the empress. The enemy of her enemy was her friend. Chen Xiaolian thought in her heart that she had to make this person believe in her.
"How come you are so good at acting? You can't be long-term, right? You two sisters are going to trip me up and set me up together?"
Zhao Yurou frowned slightly, walked around her, and said with a faint smile, "Your sister asked you to get close to the emperor. Isn't this the purpose of entering the palace?
Silly girl, your sister is doing this for your own good. If you can win the emperor's heart, your family will be better off in the future, and maybe it will even surpass your sister's status!"
Chen Xiaolian's face was full of fear, thinking that if Zhao Yurou was unwilling to help her, she might be killed in the next few days.
All the fear turned into tears, and burst out in an instant. He knelt down in front of the woman, grabbed the corner of her clothes, and begged bitterly, "Empress Roufei, I beg you, please save me.
I really don't want to die!
Concubine Shu...she is not my sister, she is a devil who just wants to kill me!
Concubine Rou... If I lie to you about thunder and lightning, if you don't believe me, I can write down what I just said on paper."
Chen Xiaolian knelt on the ground and raised her hands and began to swear. Now she placed all her hopes on this woman. If Tao didn't help her, she would have no choice but to wait for death.
Zhao Yurou frowned slightly and looked her up and down. Seeing that she was crying hoarsely, she didn't seem to be acting, but she was a member of the Wei family after all. How could she have authority over what she said?
After Zhao Yurou hesitated for a few seconds, she still couldn't bear to refuse the girl's request.
