Spring apricots around the palace wall

Chapter 41 Never Used
Ruan Wei went to the Tai Chi Palace and heard the sound of something falling inside.

Eunuch Li and the palace people waited tremblingly outside the door, not daring to enter.

"This is?" Ruan Wei asked.

Seeing Ruan Wei coming, Eunuch Li led her aside and said, "The emperor is losing his temper. You should not go in at this time. It will be fine when the emperor vents his anger."

Ruan Wei was surprised: "What's wrong with the emperor?"

Eunuch Li sighed, "The imperial doctor said that the queen didn't drink the medicine for conditioning her body today, so the emperor fell and the servants were driven out. Concubine Ruan, you are close to the queen, persuade her to come and give her The emperor should take it softly, anyway, the medicine still needs to be drunk well, the emperor still has hope for the empress."

Ruan Wei was stunned at the reason for the emperor's anger.It is estimated that the queen would not have thought that the emperor here would go crazy just because she didn't drink the medicine.

Eunuch Li said in a low voice, "The emperor has always hoped that the empress would be pregnant, but the empress stopped drinking the cold medicine at that time. The emperor was very happy. The servants have never seen the emperor so happy, but I heard the imperial doctor say that the empress is not easy to conceive. , the emperor has been drinking for two more days. Even in this situation, the emperor still wants the empress to conceive a prince."

Ruan Wei wanted to laugh a little in her heart.

This emperor has really achieved the extremes of scum and affection.But I don't know, is it for the sake of reuniting with the queen or to make up for the sins he has done?
"Eunuch Li, I have something to ask you."

"Concubine Ruan, but it doesn't matter what you say."

"On the emperor's birthday, who has been to Tai Chi Palace?"

Eunuch Li paused and said, "That day was the emperor's birthday, and many people came to Tai Chi Palace to congratulate him."

Ruan Wei's eyes darkened.Sure enough, he refused to say anything.

Eunuch Li lowered his voice and said again: "However, the emperor furiously ordered to search the front of Fengyi Palace that day, and the person who came was the commander-in-chief who was staying behind, Qi Rui."

The officer who is staying behind the commander-in-chief is responsible for the security of the imperial city. It is common sense to track the queen's carriage and start searching after the queen leaves.

Qi Rui has another identity, Qi Concubine's cousin.

Ruan Wei nodded slightly, "Thank you for the announcement."

Eunuch Li said again: "Concubine Ruan, you can investigate this matter, but you must remember not to disturb Qi Concubine without permission."

Ruan Wei couldn't understand a little, why shouldn't you disturb her, Qi Concubine's status is not high, and her background is not as good as Jiang Miaorong, let alone Xu Ying, why can't she touch her?
But seeing Eunuch Li's determined eyes, Ruan Wei replied, "I understand."
-
Qi Rui entered the palace with a big box that day and went straight to the Taiji Palace. After leaving the Taiji Palace, he also left the palace directly.

There is no intersection with Qi Concubine.

However, in order to have contact between them, it is completely possible to contact them through the next person.

When you come and go, no one will notice.

Ruan Wei locked herself in the bedroom and thought about it for a day. At sunset, she smeared peach-pink lipstick to dress herself up to be pure and refined, highlighting the delicate color of her lips. After repeatedly looking in the bronze mirror, she brought a few boxes of rouge. Cuiwei Palace.

In order to make up for the missed appointment with Concubine Ming that day, Xuan Wei stayed in Concubine Ming's Cuiwei Palace for dinner today.

The Cuiwei Palace was having a meal. When Concubine Ming saw Ruan Wei who was coming, her expression changed slightly, and then she said brightly, "My sister is really a rare visitor. Did you know that the emperor is here and came to look for the emperor?"

"It's a coincidence that I met the emperor. My sister got a few boxes of good rouge to give to my sister." Ruan Wei said with a smile.

Usually, when Xuan Wei saw Ruan Wei coming, he would definitely ask her to sit next to her, but when he saw the color of Ruan Wei's lips, Xuan Wei suddenly lost interest and snorted: "The mouth fat is good."

Seeing the emperor's bad tone, Concubine Ming was secretly delighted, and said casually: "This mouth fat, did you really ask Qi Concubine to come?"

When Xuan Wei heard this, he looked up at Ruan Wei again, frowned and said, "This concubine has no mouth fat, I only reward you, Concubine Ruan, and the queen."

Concubine Ming smiled and said, "Your Majesty atonement, Qi Concubine asked Concubine Shen for this mouth fat, and Concubine Shen refused, so she gave it to Concubine Qi."

At this point, Xuan Wei didn't have the slightest doubt, he just felt normal, and drank another glass of boring wine.

When Ruan Wei came, she could not have expected that Concubine Ming would cooperate like this without knowing anything. In this way, every sentence was on the point she wanted, and then she could bring out the key words smoothly.

"Sister Ming Fei, you gave that to Qi Concubine. Qi Concubine has very little left. I asked for it from the Queen. The Queen's box of lipstick has never been used, and it is still brand new."

Xuan Wei was stunned for a moment, looked up again, and asked in disbelief, "Have you ever used it?"

"When has the emperor ever seen the empress use that lipstick?" Ruan Wei asked back, "Probably because of the emperor's reward, the empress is reluctant to use it."

The queen did not use the box of lipstick, and the reason was indeed because of the emperor's reward, but the queen just hated the emperor, and she just disliked the things he gave. No matter how suitable it is, it will become inappropriate, so she is not necessary. To the point where he would not touch the things that the emperor personally rewarded to dress himself up.

Xuan Wei probably thought of this as well, the hand holding the wine glass was too hard and the knuckles were white, and he didn't say anything for a while.

Concubine Ming added the sentence just right: "Isn't Qi Concubine never used that mouth fat, how could it be, there is not much left?"

Ruan Wei was about to say this, but when Concubine Ming said it, she smiled without saying a word, handed the gift to the maid of Cuiwei Palace, quietly watched the emperor, and waited for his reaction.

The emperor knew better than anyone that the whistleblower was Qi Rui. Now that the relationship between Kouzhi and Qi Concubine was so plain in front of the emperor, as long as he was not a fool, he would doubt Qi Concubine and whether the queen was framed.What's more, the emperor was such a suspicious person.

Xuan Wei's expression stagnated for a long time.

When he came back to his senses, he smiled unconsciously, then put down the wine glass, and said to Ruan Wei: "You can accompany Concubine Ming to dinner, I go out for a walk."

Concubine Ming was anxious and took his arm, "The emperor promised to accompany me tonight."

Xuan Wei hesitated visibly.

Ruan Wei quickly persuaded: "My concubine has eaten dinner, and my head hurts a little. I can't accompany Sister Ming. The emperor should accompany Sister Ming."

It's not that she is afraid that Concubine Ming will take her anger, but now, the queen is not suitable for seeing the emperor.After being wronged so much, he had to design a special way to meet, which would arouse the emperor's guilt more deeply.

Furthermore, he always had to check the matter of mouth fat, and he believed it completely without saying a few words.

Unsurprisingly, Xuan Wei couldn't resist the entanglement of Concubine Ming and stayed in Cuiwei Palace.

Ruan Wei walked out of the Cuiwei Palace. At the end of the palace road, there was an orange-red sunset, which dyed half of the sky.

It was a bit like the evening when she first saw the Empress, and it was the same sunset. She knelt on the palace road and raised her head a little awkwardly. What she saw was a pair of clear and beautiful eyes, full of curiosity about her.

"The women in the building are really good-looking."

She heard the Queen's heartfelt sigh, and then, the Queen lifted her up with her own hands and said with a smile, "How gorgeous is it, Xia Yingchengtang, you are nothing more than that."

At that time, she thought to herself, if the national color is drunk in the morning, and the clothes are dyed in the day and night, the queen is well-deserved.
