312 Why are you sleeping on my bed? (5000 words

The nonsense sounds very ridiculous, Lan Qi asked Huanchun if nobleman Ping had seen them that day, Huanchun smiled bitterly and said: "I only want us to go away quickly, how dare I take another look at nobleman Ping."

Concubine Rong snorted coldly: "If it's really her fault, I'd feel sorry for her family. How could Suo'etu tolerate his niece humiliating the Hesheli family in the palace? Let's find out if this matter is serious. , what good fruit can she have?"

Lan Qi didn't care about the rumors in the palace at all, but the rumors that spread recently became more and more bizarre, and they always pushed the Yonghe Palace to the forefront. Fortunately, she An Zhiruo never paid attention to it, and it must have angered those who spread the rumors, so she talked more and more. Outrageous, seeing Concubine Rong angry for her now, she tried to comfort her: "Sister, why are you angry? I will clear it myself. Ping Guiren understands what is going on best. Let's see what tricks she can come up with."

However, Lan Qi's calmness did not calm down the situation. Two days later, an imperial official wrote a letter saying that the harem concubine beat the eunuchs, which violated the emperor's early laws prohibiting slave abuse. Conduct, I hope the emperor can intervene.

The incident in the harem was brought up to the court to say how the emperor could have a good face. When he came to Chengqian Palace this day and mentioned this incident, he couldn't help but blame the imperial concubine: "You are in charge of the Phoenix seal, and you can't even give me an explanation. ?”

The imperial concubine was always anxious, seeing the emperor blaming her, how could she hold back her breath, and asked Xuan Ye: "If the Yonghe Palace hadn't been involved, the emperor would have blamed his concubine for a court lady?"

Seeing that they were about to break up unhappy, Concubine Rong just arrived, and Concubine Rong blamed her for not being able to do things right in front of the emperor. I know all about it" was considered to appease people.

"The concubine sent someone to investigate privately. The nobleman Ping has always been strict with the maids and eunuchs, beating and scolding at every turn. When he was still in the Chuxiu Palace, even the maids of Concubine Tong would do it." Concubine Rong calmed down and slowly told the second concubine She told people what she knew, and said, "The court lady who committed suicide was the one who accidentally stepped on the hairpin that fell from Pinggui's bun on the palace road that day. It was inserted on the back of her foot, and there was also a cut on her face, it must have been disfigured. This matter has nothing to do with Concubine De, she just came back from the Palace of Compassion and Ning and passed by."

Xuan Ye also said: "That day I came out of the Palace of Compassion and Ning together with her, and I have never seen her beat and scold a maid in all these years, let alone someone in her room."

The imperial concubine stood beside her with a stern face, without saying a word, her heart was sour and unconvinced, it was Xuan Ye who asked her later, and then reluctantly opened her mouth: "Bring nobleman Ping to ask, the emperor is crying and pretending to be here. Poor, my concubine is really afraid of your soft heart. Why don't you condescend to avoid it for a while, so that I can see how this little Hesheli behaves when dealing with my concubine and Concubine Rong."

In fact, she was impulsive just now and almost mentioned Queen Hesheli. The imperial concubine has no impression of this legendary queen, and she doesn't even look down on her. It's just that she is in contact with her own sister now. Dare to flatter her, she never expected that her own sisters' personalities are equally different.

How could Xuanye do such a thing? He didn't even bother to look at little Hesheli's face. He knew her character well, and said coldly: "This should be your business, I'm only waiting for you result."

The emperor left after saying these words. Concubine Rong saw that the imperial concubine was gnashing her teeth in anger, and she couldn't figure out why she was angry. She didn't know what to do. Whether it's fine or Concubine De, who should make it clear."

Concubine Rong didn't want to deal with her alone, why she always got angry and asked Ji Xin to send people to the various palaces to invite them. In less than a quarter of an hour, Concubine Hui and Concubine Yi came one after another. The Qian Palace was packed to the brim, apart from Concubine Wen Gui's body, even Wan Liu Hashi came with a full stomach.

After everyone arrived, the imperial concubine directly mentioned the matter of the court lady's suicide, and called Mr. Ping to the front for questioning. Mr. Ping saw that this was like a three-court trial, and dared not be as arrogant as before, and respectfully knelt on the right In the middle, the imperial concubine asked a question and she answered a question, but none of them said a word to the point.

"Your Majesty ordered you not to abuse your servants, but you can actually force them to death?" The imperial concubine scolded Ping Guiren, her gaze casually passed over Lan Qi, thinking that the emperor just made trouble for her just now, and now the usual harmony cannot be eased. No matter how you look at it, you think Lan Qi is not pleasing to the eye, so you can't help but ask coldly, "Concubine De, since you passed by that day and saw Ping Gui beating the maid, why didn't you step forward to stop it? As a concubine, it is also your responsibility to teach the concubines under you." .”

Seeing Concubine Rong winking at her, and seeing Concubine Huang Guifei's angry look, Lan Qi knew that nothing she said would satisfy her, so she simply bowed her body and responded calmly: "The concubine was not feeling well that day, so I was in a hurry to get back The Yonghe Palace invited the imperial physician, and I did see Pinggui scolding the maids, but it is common for the masters in the palace to teach slaves, and Pinggui also has his own way of teaching slaves. Although the concubines have the responsibility to teach Pinggui, there is no reason to interfere with her house. thing."

The imperial concubine sneered: "Yes, these few words of yours have cleared things up."

A few concubines were sitting next to each other, looking at each other, Xi concubine said to the imperial concubine: "Your Majesty, forgive me for talking too much. I heard this matter, why did I go in the wrong direction? Now there is a lot of noise inside and outside the palace, is it true?" It seems to be two different things to say that the Concubine De concubine abused the palace maids and the concubine De concubine why she didn’t stop nobleman Ping at this moment. Naturally, the concubines know that the concubine De concubine is gentle and benevolent, and will not abuse her servants.”

The Imperial Concubine gave Xi Concubine a cold gouged look, "You've been talking nonsense for a long time, since you know that Concubine De will not abuse servants, why do I ask?"

Concubine Xi froze in fright, and everyone present was also a little surprised, even Lan Qi herself did not expect that although the imperial concubine treated her badly, she didn't seem to take those rumors seriously and caused such a big fight. It seems that he just wants to ask Mr. Ping about his fault.

Little Hesheli, who was kneeling, stared at Xi Concubine and asked: "Why did the empress mention this? Speaking of it, the concubine still finds it strange. The concubine did not wrong the concubine De for forcing the concubine's maid to death. I still don't know who spread the word. The court lady wanted to find death and the concubine couldn't stop her, but it was not wrong for the concubine to punish her for her wrongdoing."

There was an uproar in the hall, and everyone believed that it was the rumor spread by Ping Guiren herself, but she voluntarily denied it, and she did not hide her objection to beating the maid, but this was inconsistent with the voice of the court. look?

Concubine Hui and Concubine Yi didn't speak, Concubine Rong had been robbed by the imperial concubine just now, and she didn't bother to speak at the moment, Concubine De was half of the party involved, but she had finished what she should say, and Concubine Xi who spoke rashly just now blushed For a while, Bai finally said: "Yeah... I really don't know who spread the rumors and slandered Empress Defei like that."

Ping Guiren snorted: "This has nothing to do with concubines."

"Shut up." The imperial concubine scolded, straightened her back a little, and said coldly, "Recently, there has always been such a trend in the palace, but you all take care of the people in your own palace, where are there so many people?" Nosy business? But today I am looking for you not because of any rumors, but because of nobleman Ping’s maid’s suicide, to warn each of you. Seeing the end of the year, don’t make yourself unhappy.”

Everyone said yes, waiting for the imperial concubine to deal with the nobleman, but the little Hesheli on the ground was still a bit angry, straightened up and defended himself: "The concubine has the right to punish her own maid, she wants to kill the concubine How can I stop it? Punishment and abuse are two different things, and concubines don't admit that they abuse their servants."

The imperial concubine sneered, with an expression on her face that she didn't care whether you would admit it or not, she raised her hand and raised her slender armor to point at Concubine Rong, "Ping nobles will punish you for one year, and you will be banned for another month to think about your mistakes. The dead maid sent someone to go home To appease the aftermath, since it has been spread that it is unbearable to abuse and commit suicide, don’t hide it, naturally how much money was spent, the Ping noble will take out the money, and the money in the palace is not spent on it.”

"Your Majesty, my concubine..."

"Shut up!" The imperial concubine stood up abruptly, seeing that little Hesheli still dared to stare at her in disbelief, she couldn't help but pour out all her resentment towards Lan Qi on her, and said quietly, "I have been in the palace for more than half a year, a little bit of discipline If you can't learn it, don't say it, it's getting more and more disrespectful. I heard that the queen mother taught you the rules a while ago, and it seems that you still haven't learned well. Ping nobleman, you can't do it like this. Queen Hesheli's face will make you lose face It's all over."

Because the imperial concubine was angry, all the concubines got up to listen to the training. Lan Qi moved slowly because she was pregnant. When she lowered her head, she saw Concubine Hui and Concubine Yi looked at each other. She glanced quickly, listening to the imperial concubine's lecture Thinking of the expressions when the two of them looked at each other, although it was just a quick glance, she always felt that there was something in it, so she naturally alerted herself, don't be unable to look at people and things calmly because of the phrase "be careful of Concubine Hui".

"In a while, go to the place where you beat the maid on the road that day and kneel for two hours, blowing the cold wind and you will wake up." After the imperial concubine said this, everyone in the room was about to leave, and everyone bowed to see each other. Mrs. Keping was still unconvinced, and shouted that she was wronged, the imperial concubine suddenly stopped, and called Concubine Rong: "Send someone to watch, four hours, one moment less, whoever takes care of her will kneel down for a day. "

The imperial concubine walked away, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief, passing glances at each other and dared not say anything, obviously the imperial concubine had just taught everyone not to abuse, but in fact the imperial concubine herself had a bad temper for the first time. When I was young, which maid and eunuch in Chengqian Palace had never been beaten, because of the bluffing words just now, she would kneel for a whole day at every turn.

When the crowd dispersed, Concubine Rong ordered people to take Ping Guiren away, because she refused to live or die, she also said a few harsh words to scare her, and then turned back to see Lan Qi supporting Bu Guiren to go out slowly, and asked worriedly: "Is the embarrassment getting worse?"

"I am like this, others dare not touch me." Lan Qi smiled slyly, "Otherwise everyone would come over and talk, which would be very annoying, but seeing that I am not active, they dare not come near me."

Bu Guiren also laughed and said: "Scared the empress? Don't worry, Empress Defei is fine."

Concubine Rong didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and Lan Qi regained her spirits only when they went back to the Yonghe Palace together. Concubine Duan and the others also came to sit down, talking about what happened just now, and sighed: "I thought the imperial concubine would embarrass you, but I didn't expect her to do that." Except for one sentence, I'm on your side."

Lan Qi also found it unbelievable. If she had to think of the best reason for this, it would probably be the fourth elder brother.For the imperial concubine, if she gets into trouble, she will also embarrass the fourth elder brother. That is what she hates the most. As for the death of a court lady or eunuch, or even Ping Guiren's own suicide, it may not make her eyelids Take a second look.

Concubine Rong said, "Do you think Little Hesheli said that she didn't spread rumors, is it true or not?"

Several people calmed down and thought about it, Bugui was the first to say: "A person like her, how can there be fakes?"

The sisters didn't discuss this matter and came to a conclusion. Concubine Duan and the others left first, Concubine Rong stayed alone for a while, and said to Lan Qi in private: "I told you that day, why did Suo'etu let nobleman Ping do it?" For such a stupid thing, I can find out how she abused the servants in the house. If the superiors really want to punish her, why don’t they find out? Today, I feel that she may not be spreading the word. "

Lan Qi thought of Concubine Hui and Concubine Yi's eyes on each other, but she didn't mention it to Concubine Rong. She wanted to see for herself what they were planning, and then consider whether to discuss with Concubine Rong later.

But after Concubine Rong left the Yonghe Palace, the people under her hand reported back and forth, saying that half of the nuns who guarded nobleman Guan Ping and punished her for kneeling had changed to another person, Zhang Sheng's face, and they didn't know where it was at the moment.

Concubine Rong felt strange, so she told her subordinates: "No matter what happens, just watch it with a cold eye, I don't know what kind of evil wind is blowing in the palace, you must see it clearly before talking about it."

In this matter, with the imperial concubine severely punishing the nobleman, the rumors about the concubine De's abuse of the court ladies were self-defeating, and the emperor did not have to deal with the voices in the court, and finally the world was peaceful.Although the imperial concubine is a little domineering, but this kind of thing really needs to be suppressed hard to make people shut up. Xuan Ye is satisfied with the result given by his cousin, so he naturally wants to praise her afterwards, so that she can continue to understand what to do. What should Feng Yin do.

In the days that followed, the palace was finally at peace again, time passed by in a flash, and the August Mid-Autumn Festival seemed to be still in front of us, and it was already the twelfth lunar month in a blink of an eye.

On the fourth day of the twelfth lunar month, Wan Chang in Jingyang Palace gave birth to a baby brother. Wan Liuha could not raise him himself because of his low status. He thought Concubine Rong would take him over. But she told the two palaces that they were too busy with the facts in the palace, and she was afraid that the little brother would be negligent in Jingyang Palace, so it would be most appropriate to send him to take care of him, and he did not become her adopted son.

Everyone didn't understand why Concubine Rong let go of such a good opportunity. She only said to Concubine Duan in private: "If it was a girl, I would raise it, but I had already decided early on that if it was a prince, I would definitely not raise it. I am outside the palace. There is no support, and the palace relies on the face that I have earned for more than ten years. I can't stand a little bit of trouble. If I get caught by those things because I have an extra son, the gain will not be worth the loss. I am more low-key as a mother. The third elder brother is more secure."

After the little elder brother washes three times, it will be Laba. Because it is a happy event for the royal family to have a new son, there are more clans and nobles entering the palace in Laba to congratulate them than in previous years. The elder brothers in the school did not suspend classes, and the fourth elder brother came back from the study at the usual time, Chengqian Palace was unexpectedly a little deserted, Xiao Hezi said that the ladies had gone to Ningshou Palace, and asked the little master to change clothes and go there.

Yinzhen went to his room, and just went in to put down his things. Suddenly, he saw a five or six-year-old girl crawl out of his bed, and walked out with sleepy eyes and bare feet. Suddenly, he saw Yinzhen's master and servant, half asleep and half awake Suddenly, she burst into tears: "I want my mother..."

Yinzhen was even more surprised, and asked her back: "Why are you sleeping in my bed?"

Naturally, soon someone came to take care of the affairs here, and Yinzhen also recognized this little girl as the young lady of Ulanara's family, and remembered that her name was Yuxi, and she went to the palace to play during the Dragon Boat Festival, but she never saw her again.When Yinzhen saw Yuxi, he inevitably thought of his younger brother. At that time, it was so good for the children to play together, and he couldn't help feeling uncomfortable. He didn't even want to go to Ningshou Palace, so he sent Xiao Hezi to say: "You go Tell Er Niang that today's book is difficult, and I have to recite my homework at home."

Yuxi was originally playing in Chengqian Palace with Erniang in the afternoon, because she was sleepy after lunch, the imperial concubine asked someone to put her to sleep in the fourth elder brother's room. Mammy took care of her, just now the mammies were lazy to eat snacks, and only then did the fourth elder brother and Xiao Hezi come in, just as Yuxi woke up, they frightened her.At this moment, the nuns are dressing up the young lady, and they are going to Ningshou Palace.

Yinzhen sat at the desk, aimlessly flipping through the book in front of him, thinking of his younger brother felt a throbbing pain in his heart, raised his hand to rub his red eye sockets, and bit his lips tightly to prevent himself from crying.He has always adhered to the principle that a man does not cry easily, but whenever he thinks of his younger brother, he always feels so uncomfortable that he wants to cry.

"Fourth elder brother, why are you crying?" The beautiful and exquisite Yuxi suddenly appeared in front of the door, she stepped over the high threshold clumsily, and ran to the edge of the desk. Looking up at Yinzhen with difficulty, he asked sweetly, "Si elder brother, did the master scold you?"

Yuxi also has a teacher at home to teach her homework. She doesn't understand why the carefree days suddenly ended after the Dragon Boat Festival, and now she has to learn a lot of things every day. Beating, so seeing the red eyes of the fourth elder brother and rubbing vigorously, thinking that he was also scolded by the teacher.

Yinzhen said angrily: "I won't cry, why don't you leave, I have to study."

Yuxi saw how fierce the fourth elder brother was, so she couldn't help but pouted, and said softly: "Si elder brother, let's go to Ningshou Palace together, I'm hungry, and my mother said that Ningshou Palace has a lot of delicious food."

Outside the door, Lan Qi and Huan Chun were coming, it was originally that everyone went to Ningshou Palace from here in the afternoon, because Lan Qi wanted to go back to rest, the imperial concubine asked her to take Yuxi with her when she went there at night, now she came to lead her Yuxi, so coincidentally Yinzhen came back, and when he entered the door, he met Xiao Hezi who was going to deliver a message, asked him a few words to tell him not to leave, and wanted to persuade Yinzhen.

"Si elder brother, aren't you hungry?" In the room, Yuxi's voice was sweet and waxy.
