The group's favorite little Fubao has become the most arrogant kid in the whole imperial city

Chapter 63: It’s just a nap, who is it bothering?

Concubine Chen acted like a hands-off boss, too lazy to confront the Empress Dowager, so she just stopped her twice and then ignored her.

Emperor Jingyuan was in the previous court and was unaware of this. He only found out when he was leaving court that the person had been taken away by the empress dowager. He was so angry that he smashed the Yuanyang Palace on the spot, causing a huge uproar.

When the messenger came from Shoukang Palace, Concubine Chen was just making spring clothes for Xihe. Upon hearing this, she just raised her eyelids lazily and ordered someone to change clothes.

Chunhua was carrying the Queen Mother's order, but he didn't see Xihe's figure, so he had to ask with a flattering face: "This old servant presumptuously asks, I don't know where the little princess is. The Queen Mother also sent for the little princess."

Concubine Chen paused for a moment and glanced at Chunhua calmly, "The little princess is not feeling well and has fallen asleep. I will go there."

In fact, the little girl went to Chonghua Palace to find the fourth princess early in the morning, and the two sisters are probably outside the palace now.

When Chunhua heard this, her suspicions grew even stronger. She said in embarrassment, "Your Majesty, why don't you wake up the little princess? It's not easy for a young person to disobey the Queen Mother's summons."

This is using filial piety to pressure others.

But Concubine Chen was no pushover. "I told you that Xihe is sleeping. Didn't you understand, Madam?"

If she doesn't hand over the person, what can the Queen Mother do to her?

Chunhua smiled and laughed dryly, "Your Majesty, please."

But deep down, I became more and more certain about the epidemic that Concubine Shu had mentioned.

If everything is fine, why doesn't he want to see anyone? There is probably something fishy going on.

*
Shoukang Palace was bustling with activity. Concubine Chen bowed and took the opportunity to glance at Emperor Jingyuan's expression.

Looks like there's been a commotion.

Chunhua walked up to the Queen Mother and whispered a few words, and the next second, the Queen Mother suddenly attacked.

She said sternly, "My Lady, I asked you to bring the Sixth Princess here, why didn't you bring her?"

Concubine Chen's expression remained unchanged, but she sneered in her heart, "Please forgive me, Queen Mother. Xihe was very sleepy, so I let her sleep. When I left, she was still awake, so I didn't bring her with me."

The Queen Mother snorted coldly, and her heart became more certain, "It's already noon, why are you sleeping now!"

Emperor Jingyuan immediately responded, "Xihe is not feeling well, she just took a nap, who is she bothering?"

"If it's just a simple sleep, I'm afraid someone is hiding something!" The Queen Mother glanced at Concubine Chen meaningfully.

Concubine Chen remained motionless, but Emperor Jingyuan frowned.

"Whatever you want to say, mother, you might as well say it directly."

"Since the emperor said so, I will speak directly." The queen mother said with full energy: "Your precious Sixth Princess has contracted the plague, but Concubine Chen not only did not move her out for treatment, but hid her in her own palace. What kind of thing is this? How can a concubine not care about the lives of the people in the palace?"

"This is impossible. Where did Mother hear this rumor?"

In the morning when Emperor Jingyuan went to court, he met two little girls who came with him.

Xihe had a rosy complexion and didn't look sick at all.

"How is it impossible? That girl was clearly infected with the disease, but the imperial concubine had the news concealed. Yun'er accidentally got the news and wanted to tell me, but she was persecuted and almost couldn't leave the cold palace!"

The Queen Mother spoke sharply, implicitly accusing Concubine Chen of wanting to kill Yun.

Concubine Chen's expression did not change. "I am wronged. First, Xihe is fine, there is nothing wrong with her. How can this epidemic come from? Second, Yun is in the cold palace. I don't think my hands are that long. If the Queen Mother doesn't believe me, you can check it out and you will know that what I said is true."

Emperor Jingyuan glanced at Concubine Chen, who was sitting at the head of the table, with a half-smile, but said nothing. He lazily leaned back, waiting to watch the show.

Anyway, my little daughter is fine, so she can make as much noise as she wants.

"Could Yun'er dare to lie to me?" The Queen Mother had always disliked Concubine Chen. After all, if Concubine Chen had not suddenly entered the palace, the position of Concubine would have belonged to the Yun family.

"It's hard to say. After all, Yun once dared to deceive Your Majesty." Concubine Chen was not afraid at all and looked directly at the Queen Mother. "Your Majesty, why don't you ask who told Yun about this? What if Sister Yun was also deceived?"

Concubine Chen felt that she was extremely kind-hearted.

Look, how considerate she is, she even helps Yun to get away with it.

The Queen Mother had no choice but to send someone to help Yun out. It seemed that life in the cold palace was not easy for Yun. She had lost a lot of weight, looked pale and skinny, and looked very sick.

As soon as she arrived, she grabbed the Queen Mother's skirt and cried, "Aunt! Yun'er almost couldn't see you."

The Queen Mother was about to say a few words of comfort when Emperor Jingyuan said coldly, "Then shall I send you to death? Will that satisfy your filial piety?"

Yun's: "..."

Queen Mother: "..."

Concubine Chen couldn't help laughing, but soon she straightened her expression and asked, "Yun, who told you that Xihe was sick?"

Yun gritted her teeth and said angrily, "Sister, what do you mean by this? Can I still talk nonsense?"

"Who knows? After all, you have a precedent." Concubine Chen fired at full force, leaving no room for others. "Isn't it, Your Majesty?"

Emperor Jingyuan said nothing, looking as if he was staying out of the matter.

Yun took a look at the Queen Mother's expression. After receiving a comforting look from her, the resentment in her heart burst out, but she put on an embarrassed look, "Since Sister said so, then I have no choice but to tell the truth."

She continued, "A maid in my sister's palace accidentally saw the Sixth Princess fall ill, and she secretly told me about it."

The expected panic did not appear on Concubine Chen's face, and she remained calm.

Yun was shocked. Could it be fake?
But when he thought of the Queen Mother's hint just now, he calmed down again.

Maybe she is about to die, and Concubine Chen is just pretending.

"When did the maids in my palace become so close to Sister Yun that they can even tell her about the things in my palace. Private exchanges are a serious crime in the palace." Concubine Chen asked someone to bring up the maid who was cleaning the room and said indifferently.

Yun bit her lower lip, unable to explain for a long time, "This... this..."

The Queen Mother could not bear to watch any longer and spoke up to stop them, saying, "Noble Concubine Chen, we are talking about the Sixth Princess' illness now. Stop talking about other things and distracting from the conversation."

This is what Concubine Chen was waiting for. She lowered her head and smiled, "Please forgive me, Queen Mother. Xihe is indeed not sick. I thought this palace maid was just making up stories, so I just asked a few questions."

"One says she is infected, and the other says she is not. Then let the Sixth Princess come out, and the imperial physician will know the answer after examining her."

The Queen Mother still wanted to see Xihe, but this time Concubine Chen did not stop her.

"This... I don't know where the children went. How about asking His Majesty? His Majesty asked the two children to go out this morning."

Concubine Chen threw the bomb to Emperor Jingyuan. Emperor Jingyuan glanced at her indifferently and ordered Sanping to pick up the two children.

The Queen Mother and Yun looked at each other, slightly panicked.

What's going on? Aren't you sick?
