The Six Palaces of Favorites: The Black-bellied Emperor's Cold Concubine

Chapter 296 Minor Torment

Ye Hanyu pulled her into her own palace, "The goldfish is here anyway, you can see it anytime you want, and there is no rush at this moment, just go back with me and rest. If you don’t sit, what are you raising those servants for nothing? The first three months are the most critical time, so there must be no mistakes.”

Qingchen followed Ye Hanyu to her Yilanxuan, and Zhihua hurriedly brought up tea and fruit. The two ate and chatted about needlework. Qingchen's mood gradually improved a lot. Ye Hanyu asked: "Have you heard about what happened outside these two days?"

Qingchen was a little confused, and shook his head completely ignorantly, "What did sister say?"

Ye Hanyu handed her a lychee, jokingly said: "The emperor put you on that small island in the water, are you really cut off from outside news?"

Qingchen held the iced sour plum soup in his hand, drank it in small sips, smacked his lips and said, "I really don't know, it's not like you don't know that I don't mind my own business, as long as it doesn't interfere with my business, I don't bother to listen to it." .”

Ye Hanyu shook her head and said, "Now that the whole palace has been spread, you don't know it yet. Concubine Xin has been in charge of the Six Palaces, and in just a few days, everyone is already dissatisfied."

Qingchen asked in surprise: "Why?"

Ye Hanyu idly shook the fan in her hand, showing a hint of an unclear smile, and said slowly: "The quality of these bird's nests from the new tribute is not very good, the quantity of blood swallows and swiftlets is not much, and even the quality of white swallows It is also greatly discounted. But you also know the situation in the palace. Naturally, the emperor cannot cut off the supply. The queen mother is sick, and she needs bird’s nest nourishment. The mother of the country, of course, can't be wronged. There are still a few pregnant concubines left, and the emperor specially ordered them to use blood swallows.

In this way, even the slightly better Baiyan is not enough, let alone Xueyan.The queen naturally doesn't care about these small things about the distribution. It is said that not only did Xiao Ronghua not get the blood swallows, but even the white swallows were second-class. Some people took the lead and complained to the queen one after another, saying that the things they received in the palace were not good.Instead, the Queen protected Concubine Xin, and this protection made everyone even more dissatisfied. "

Qingchen snorted lightly, and just found it ridiculous, "The queen is not protecting her, it's true to provoke public anger on purpose. However, the emperor will not blame Concubine Xin for such a thing. Well it wasn't her fault."

Ye Guirong took a cold summer tea, took a few sips and said with a smile: "Don't worry, listen to me slowly, the emperor naturally didn't blame Concubine Xin for this, but the people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs have been making mistakes frequently for some reason recently. , On such a hot day, they forgot to deliver ice to Qin Guipin and He Guipin's palace.

Now under the empress, these two are the most honorable. He Guifei is pregnant and should not get angry and fussy, but Qin Guifei is not a vegetarian. She thought that someone was deliberately negligent, so she directly sued the queen mother , Empress Qi was also there, and the Empress Dowager was somewhat dissatisfied with the Empress. The Empress was wronged, and after she returned, she called Concubine Xin to Duanfu Palace to scold her.

That's all, what's even more inconceivable is that the clothing materials carefully selected by Concubine Xin for the Queen Mothers of the Two Palaces were sent to the Queen Mothers, and there was even a third-class brocade mixed in. You know, these third-class brocades are generally It is used by concubines of low status, or the maids next to concubines with high profile. It is fine if there is such a piece of inferior material in the empress dowager's clothes, but the brocade is still torn.

When the clothes were picked out, the emperor happened to be there too. Although the queen mother didn't say anything, the emperor was still a little displeased. He blamed Concubine Xin for not being careful, so he called her to the imperial study and said something to her.She was also full of grievances, but she couldn't tell the difference. "
