Queen's scheming

Chapter 171 Heartbreak (Part [-])

In the main hall of Ningsu Palace, there is only the rustling of tassels on the phoenix hairpin.

Shen Qingyi gently rubbed her temples, closed her eyes and rested her mind, raised her ring finger and little finger slightly, and the gilt armor with powder inlaid on it shone with lustrous light.

After experiencing what happened yesterday, the concubines in the main hall held their breaths, not daring to speak out.

"Why does this palace feel that there are too many people in the main hall!" Shen Qingyi slightly opened her eyes, even though her voice was soft, it still made the concubines tremble.

At this time, Yu He was serving Shen Qingyi's side, and replied respectfully: "If you go back to the Empress, there are three rough envoys from the Clothes Bureau occupying the space."

As soon as Yuhe finished speaking, she saw the three concubines kneeling on the ground trembling, begging bitterly.

Shen Qingyi didn't show any expression, and leaned forward slightly, sizing up the three of them carefully, her expression seemed to be looking at a monster she had never seen before, her red lips parted slightly, and her voice was like icicles in the cold winter, she said: "You guys too Dare to disobey the meaning of this Palace?"

"I don't dare!" The three of them kowtowed frequently, and a bolder concubine opened her mouth and pleaded: "Your Majesty, this concubine really has no intentions, please forgive this concubine, your empress, you can only treat it as a concubine. The prince has accumulated virtue!"

These words completely angered Shen Qingyi. The biggest reason why she is so strong now is because of the child in her womb, because this is completely different from her previous life. She didn't have this child in her previous life. She didn't know if she could keep him. But as long as he is in her body, she must do her best to protect him.

Shen Qingyi raised her eyebrows and asked: "According to what you mean, in order to accumulate virtue for the emperor's heir, I will let you bully me?"

"I don't dare to concubine!" The three of them didn't dare to say any more, the more they said, the more wrong they were, and if they continued, they might lose their lives.

Shen Qingyi coldly turned the gold-threaded pearl pendant on the rose-red outer garment, her eyelids didn't bother to pinch them, but with a slight lift of her hand, some palace servants lifted the three of them who were limp on the ground out.

After dealing with the three of them, Shen Qingyi seemed to be tired, she closed her eyes lightly, and did not speak for a long while. This kind of silence made everyone in the hall panic. No one knew what Shen Qingyi was thinking, they just knew Well, Shen Qingyi, who had been soft-tempered for three or four months, returned to the way it was before.

Tang Aoxue got up and broke the silence of Ningsu Palace. In this harem, only the imperial concubine Mi Yurou of Duanjing could do it. She was surrounded by jewels and emeralds, but there was no sound in her movements. No matter how hard Tang Aoxue tried to imitate her elder sister Tang Litong, she still couldn't do it.

With her eyes closed, Shen Qingyi discerned the sound carefully. It should be the sound made by Tang Aoxue's carp leaping over the Dragon Gate amber jade pendant and the cloisonné dotted emerald gold bracelet. Is this going to catch up again?

Tang Aoxue wore an ice-blue Shu brocade jacket today, embroidered with ink and plum blossoms, which made her cold and aloof temperament even more dusty, but her words were beyond Shen Qingyi's expectations.

Tang Aoxue prostrated herself, and the pale plum blossoms bloomed slowly, as if paving the way for Tang Aoxue. Her cold voice said crisply: "Empress, my concubine was bewitched by someone yesterday, and she even came to Ningsu Palace in white clothes. It is really the concubine's fault for saying that to the empress dowager. Wearing white clothes to the empress dowager, the emperor and the empress empress are disrespectful. This level in my heart."

Shen Qingyi opened her eyes and stared at Tang Aoxue scrutinizingly. If Mi Yurou said these words, she would definitely not have the slightest doubt, but when she said these words from the proud Tang Aoxue, Shen Qingyi had no choice but to be suspicious.

"Concubine Xue is serious. What happened yesterday has already been explained clearly. Even the Queen Mother didn't hold you accountable, so why should you take it to heart?" Shen Qingyi's backing down was not without reason. If Tang Aoxue didn't mention it today, She would naturally think of other ways to avenge Yu Lian, but when Tang Aoxue proposed it herself, she had to think about it. With Tang Aoxue's scheming, Shen Qingyi was worried that she would do something that would hurt the enemy one thousand and herself eight hundred. , Shen Qingyi wanted to trouble Tang Aoxue, but the premise was that Yu Lian would no longer be implicated.

Under Tang Aoxue is a huge red carpet with auspicious peacocks. The fluff is as long as half a palm. Kneeling on it is soft and feels uncomfortable. She is kneeling on the peacock at this time, and the peacock is looking up at her. A group of flowers raised their heads high.

Tang Aoxue took a deep breath, that person was right, if she wanted to look down on Shen Qingyi one day, she had to give in now, what she had to do now was to win the hearts of the Queen Mother and the Emperor, because of what happened yesterday, The empress dowager and the emperor will definitely have a rift with her, and it is very possible to ignore her for a few months. She doesn't want that to happen, so she has to seize the opportunity and let the empress dowager and the emperor Turn your mind around.

Tang Aoxue lightly kowtowed, still coldly said: "The concubine's actions have really exceeded her duty. After thinking about it, the concubine still feels that she should be punished. It is the concubine who disrespects the queen mother, the emperor, and the queen. The virtues of the concubine are deficient, so the concubine asks for a one-month confinement, copies the women's ring three hundred times, and asks the empress to fulfill the sincerity of the concubine."

As soon as Tang Aoxue's words fell, Imperial Concubine Duanjing held up the hand of the teacup, paused slightly, and then continued to sip her tea calmly. When did this Concubine Xue start to have such meticulous thoughts? Tang Aoxue's actions are seen by others It was self-inflicted, but Mi Yurou could see clearly that as long as Tang Aoxue really acted like this, the displeasure between the Queen Mother and the Emperor yesterday would dissipate in an instant.

Although Shen Qingyi was also surprised, but she already had the intention of avenging Yulian, so she would not stop her, so she responded immediately: "Since Concubine Xue has the heart, I will help you."

Tang Aoxue got up lightly, but there was a smile in her eyes. Neither Mi Yurou nor Shen Qingyi guessed that she had other reasons for doing this. After this month, Shen Qingyi's fetal image would sit firmly. No matter what happened to Shen Qingyi in a month, she could not be blamed in Zhaoyang Palace.

After everyone left, Shen Qingyi held a black jade chess piece in her hand and kept rubbing it. This Tang Aoxue has changed too much, it only took a few days?How could Tang Aoxue become so smart from the idiot who tripped her up in front of everyone at the palace banquet?

"Yuhe, ask someone to go to Zhaoyang Palace to inquire, and see if there is a newcomer serving Concubine Xue in Zhaoyang Palace recently?" Shen Qingyi subconsciously felt that someone was giving advice to Tang Aoxue, even if Tang Aoxue was stimulated. If you are smart, you won't change so fast.

Yu He also felt a little uneasy, and replied: "The empress has forgotten that the emperor has already killed all the palace servants who are next to Concubine Xue and below the first-class court ladies, and now most of them are new palace maids."

Shen Qingyi thought for a while, the new maids in the palace should not have such scheming methods, and Tang Aoxue's intelligence was evident from the medication, Tang Aoxue clearly planted her frame on purpose, every step was calculated very accurately.

"Tang Aoxue asked herself to be punished and grounded. I just wanted to find an opportunity to trouble her, but she failed. She is clearly making progress by retreating." Shen Qingyi dropped the chess piece on the chessboard, and gently moved towards the chessboard. Pushing a grid forward, he said: "Let's keep an eye on Zhaoyang Palace, but don't go too far. Zhaoyang Palace has guards specially found by General Tang for Concubine Xue. If something like Yulian happens again, this palace will be afraid." I really can't bear it!"

When Yuhe heard Shen Qingyi's words, she hesitated for a moment, and then said: "There is something that I have not had time to report to you today. According to Zhang Yang, General Tang had a big fight with Concubine Xue yesterday, and he will Those elite soldiers have all been withdrawn, and now the guards around Zhaoyang Palace are no different from other palaces in the harem!"

"Why is this?" Shen Qingyi instinctively felt that this was a trick deliberately set by Tang Zihan and Tang Aoxue to make her unscrupulously go to Zhaoyang Palace to inquire about affairs.

It's no wonder that Shen Qingyi thinks so, Tang Zihan and Tang Aoxue's relationship is so close, it can be seen from some small things, Tang Aoxue transferred Tang Zihan to the palace less than a month after entering the palace, let's put it more clearly, Even if Tang Aoxue enters the palace and becomes the master, the first person to benefit is not her elder brother, nor her father or mother, but a concubine elder brother.

Tang Zihan's performance is even more obvious. Tang Zihan spent more time in the palace than in the Zhen Guogong's mansion. It was his confidant who would bring Tang Aoxue some fresh gadgets from outside the palace from time to time. Who in this palace would not envy Tang Aoxue for having such an older brother, everyone wished to help their brother into the palace as a guard.

Shen Qingyi reckoned that Tang Zihan's wife had a good temper. If she was her, she wouldn't care if it was her sister-in-law or not. Back to the child!
But this time it was Shen Qingyi who guessed wrong. Tang Zihan knew what happened yesterday, and he always felt that it was his fault if he blamed it. will be caught.

Tang Zihan wished she could slap her twice. Besides Shen Qingyi, who else in this palace could suppress Tang Aoxue. Although the status of the imperial concubine Duanjing was much higher, she knew the rules. Tang Aoxue had a former empress. The first sister is there, even if Mi Yurou's status is higher than hers, she can't do anything to her, and she has assigned so many elite soldiers to Tang Aoxue, isn't it just for Shen Qingyi?

Tang Zihan's original intention was to persuade Tang Aoxue not to be an enemy of Shen Qingyi, but Tang Aoxue had just been frustrated, and she hated Shen Qingyi to death, so she would not listen to him, and the two immediately quarreled. All replaced.He was also for Shen Qingyi's sake, Shen Qingyi was determined not to have that spare time to frame her sister, if it's okay to send someone to the Zhaoyang Palace for a walk, it won't hurt Tang Aoxue, what to worry about!
　This year is too tiring, there are no code words for several days, and the saved manuscripts are not enough, and I am crazy about code words.
