Chapter 58 56. Private Affair ()

He thought he had just woken up and had some milk. At this time, the sixth brother was in a state of joy. When he saw E Niang and Aunt Chun, his two little arms were beating more and more happily.

"Sister Chang Bin, why didn't you bring the seventh elder brother and the princess? If so, sister's place would be more lively." Chungui asked while teasing the sixth elder brother.

"I am upset every day, so I took advantage of the two little devils to take a nap. If I bring them both, I'm afraid your sister Wan's roof will be overturned. Then your sister Wan will be in trouble. Let me pay the compensation."

"Princess Age overturned the roof of the palace. It was because the Ministry of Internal Affairs did not do the job well. How can I ask Sister Changbin to compensate? How about this. If Sister Changbin dislikes the fuss, just give one to Chun'er. Well, that day Chun'er saw Qiong Wei Yuxue is cute, if you like her very much, give Qiong Wei to Chun'er."

Xia Dongchun was stunned, then covered her mouth and started laughing. She knew Chungui was joking, but she was still amused by her words.

"Chun'er is not polite. He only picks out my sister's sweetheart. If you want it, just give birth to it yourself. The baby Chun'er gives birth to will definitely be as noisy as you and give Chun'er a headache." Zhen Huan is here. Someone on the side answered angrily.

"Huh, sister is making fun of me. I won't play with you anymore. I'll take Hong Ruo out to play." After saying that, he picked up the sixth brother and took Jin Xi and the nanny to the yard, leaving Zhen Huan and Xia Dongchun still laughing. Can't stop.

After a long time, the two stopped laughing, and Zhen Huan suddenly said solemnly: "Sister Xia, every time I look at Hongrong, I think of my sister's life-saving grace. Without my sister's generous help, my sister and Hongrong would not be where they are today. My sister doesn’t want to say any unnecessary words of gratitude. My sister just needs to remember that if one day my sister comes to Zhen Huan’s place of use, Zhen Huan will go through fire and water for my sister, no matter what, my sister swears by the Zhen family.”

What I want is your words, Xia Dongchun thought to himself, otherwise why do you think I would help you?

When we returned to Yanxi Palace, it was already dinner time.

When we got up early that morning, the weather was extremely hot and muggy. The scorching sun in the past was nowhere to be seen today. The rolling dark clouds in the sky seemed to be brewing a heavy rain.

In the afternoon, Xia Dongchun was preparing to take a nap as usual, but saw the maids from Jingren Palace coming to announce that the queen had summoned all the concubines from the Sixth Palace to Jingren Palace to discuss important matters.

Xia Dongchun didn't know why. She looked at the dark clouds outside the window and the motionless branches. She wanted to find an excuse to push away, but she had a premonition that what happened today would be something serious, so she had to pack up and go slowly.

Before leaving, Mo Shuang and Yueshan were told to keep an eye on Hongmin and Qiongwei. If a heavy rain comes, they must close the doors and windows and not go out.

When they arrived with Yu Xin and Ging Guo, everyone had already arrived. This time, the concubines arrived especially well. Except for Concubine Qi who was on lockdown and Concubine Duan who never liked to go out, the rest were all here.

When the queen saw that everyone had arrived, she was not in a hurry to talk about the business. She only said that she had sent someone to invite the emperor and asked everyone to wait for a while.

Xia Dongchun's heart skipped a beat, and she realized that this incident was probably not a trivial matter, and even the emperor was alarmed.

Everyone was also aware of it, so they stopped joking and sat quietly.

Looking up at Concubine Hua, Xia Dongchun saw her exchanging glances with Concubine Xiang, and saw Fei Guiren next to Concubine Xiang calmly drinking tea. Xia Dongchun only felt a little strange.

"The Emperor has arrived." The eunuch's shrill voice sounded, and everyone stood up and saluted.

"Everyone, get up, queen, you sent someone to invite me over. What's the matter?" The emperor walked straight to the throne and asked.

"Your Majesty, it was Fei Guiren who reported this matter to me. It is of great importance and I dare not make the decision without permission."

"What's the matter?"

The queen looked at Fei Guiren and motioned for her to come forward. Fei Guiren knelt down solemnly and raised his voice.

"I want to report that Concubine Wan has an affair with Prince Guo and is causing chaos in the harem. This crime cannot be punished."

"Boom", a thunder exploded outside the window, everyone was shocked, but they didn't know whether they were frightened by the thunder or Fei Guiren's words.

"Bastard!" The emperor was furious, and a teacup broke in response. "It's a matter of concubines and clan members. How many heads do you have to start making false accusations?"

"Queen!" The Emperor yelled angrily, "Can the Queen not be able to tell the difference between such nonsense? I think you have ignored palace affairs for a long time and become confused, so you actually follow these bastards and make mischief."

"Your Majesty, forgive me." The Queen quickly stood up and apologized: "I just feel that the matter is serious and I dare not make the decision without authorization. I hope that Your Majesty will understand clearly."

At this time, Concubine Wan, who had just come to her senses, also stood up in a hurry: "I have never been disloyal, and the Emperor is aware of it."

"Concubine Wan, please get up and answer the question. The Queen should also get up." The emperor took a long breath and said in a deep voice.

"You bastard, tell me." He said angrily to Fei Guiren who was kneeling in the center of the hall.

Fei Guiren had already turned pale with fright, but now he seemed to be brave enough to defend himself.

"Your Majesty, please calm down. Concubine Guan had an affair with Prince Guo. The two had many private meetings at Tonghua Terrace. They were seen by the palace maid in the imperial garden and reported to the concubine. Together with the eunuch Sasuo, both of them were witnesses. At this moment, they are already here. Outside the palace."

The emperor said nothing and moved the beads in his hand. The hall was so quiet that only the sound of the beads colliding was left. After a while, everyone realized that it had started raining outside at some point, and the sultry heat that had accumulated for the day was swept away. And empty.

"No need to say more, I believe in Wanbi and Seventeenth Brother." The emperor closed his eyes and said without distinguishing between joy and anger.

He opened his eyes again and looked at the kneeling Fei Guiren, his eyes full of murderous intent.

"Your Majesty, as a concubine, Wan Concubine's reputation cannot be tarnished. Moreover, Concubine Wan has a sixth elder brother. If this matter is dropped, even if the concubines and sisters believe in Wan Concubine together with the Emperor, what should the sixth elder brother do? How should you deal with yourself?" the queen advised softly.

"I see that the queen is getting more and more confused. Why is it necessary to go to such great lengths for something so unreasonable?" The emperor spoke in a hoarse voice, and the words he said made the queen's face turn pale.

"Your Majesty, the Empress, please let me tell you, this matter is indeed a big one, and all the sisters in the harem are present. If we don't tell the difference clearly, I'm afraid it will damage my reputation." Concubine Xiang plucked up her courage, but she was timid. The ground spoke.

"Ever since I accepted the favor, I have been favored by the emperor alone and have a deep friendship with the emperor. I am the first to not believe such a ridiculous thing." Hui Bin said coldly.

"I don't believe it either, but if it's a lie, why are there two witnesses and why did Fei Guiren know about it? Even if you are trying to catch the wind, you have to have the wind and the shadow. Why don't you listen to what the witnesses say? ?" Rui Changzai also said calmly.

"You can tell what is true and what is not true. Why do you need to talk so much? Sister Wanbi is already outstanding in the harem, so she can win the favor of the emperor. She is also a person who is well-read in poetry, etiquette, and etiquette. How can she be involved in such unethical things? "Hua Guifei drank softly, showing her dignity without anger.
