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

Chapter 445: Bringing Trouble (7)
She doesn't like it, she doesn't even want to set foot in his imperial study, let alone compete with so many women for Fang Long's couch?

Leaning down and leaning into his arms, he said softly: "Your Majesty, this solitary boat of my concubine has been adrift all the time. I have no family to take care of me, so I don't feel particularly attached to any place until I meet my majesty, my concubine. Only one side of the roof can shelter from the wind and rain, and the concubines are grateful to the emperor."

Xiao Jun hugged her easily, stroked her long hair, frowned lightly, his eyes were full of pity, "From now on, I will be your family, as long as you stay by my side, I will try my best to be a husband. Responsibility."

The luminous pearl on the tent, although the light was soft, but when it hit her face, she looked paler in this dark night, and that shallow smile seemed extraordinarily bitter. , because he is not her husband alone.No matter how generous the emperor's grace and favor are, it is still difficult to make up for the regret in his heart.

He couldn't give what she wanted, and neither could Qin Zishuo.

He was noncommittal, but got up and helped him pull the quilt and said softly: "Your Majesty, rest, you have to go to court tomorrow morning, and my concubine will go and have a look and prepare breakfast for the Emperor."

"What time is it? Besides, I don't have breakfast until the morning. What's the rush?" Holding her hand and carrying her to bed, Xiao Jun smiled gently, "Go to sleep, and rest with me for a while."

Qingchen lay in his arms for a while and then fell asleep peacefully. With him around, she seemed to sleep extraordinarily well.

After the emperor left early in the morning, she couldn't help calling Jinxiu to ask: "Do you know what happened last night?"

Jinxiu said in a low voice: "It's not sir, but...it's someone sent by sir to pick up your empress out of the palace. Sir, he heard that your empress almost died in the Buddhist hall a few days ago, so he knows that your life is not good. , I want to help the empress leave here."

Qingchen didn't seem to believe it, "How can you be sure that it's the person Qin Zishuo sent?"

Jinxiu said firmly: "He took the jade pendant that my husband wears every day, and he said that he would not let Gu Yunfeng know about it, because he didn't want to cause him to lose his life. After all, he was too close to the empress, and he was afraid that the emperor would take his anger on him. .”

The temptation to go out of the palace is too great for her. As long as she leaves here, she will have a brighter future, and she will no longer have to live in calculations all day long, and even sleep peacefully.

"What else did the man say?"

Jinxiu frowned, as if a little disgusted, "He said that he would contact the empress when he had the opportunity, and he would notify us when he had made a detailed plan, so that the empress could wait patiently."

"Did he just make the decision for me without even asking me if I wanted to leave? Who did he think he was!" Annoyed in his heart, he couldn't help complaining like this, and asked again: "The person who met you Is it the eunuch?"

Jinxiu was slightly taken aback, and recalled: "The night clothes she was wearing, and the voice she spoke didn't sound like a father-in-law in the palace, so he must be someone close to Mr.

Qingchen sat down slowly, staring at the blue and white twigs, lotus and blue bowl on the table in a daze, Qin Zishuo, who is he?If he was really just a famous scholar or doctor, where did his so-called subordinates come from?She has been with him for so many years, why is she so foolish and never suspicious at all?

……

Shu Guiyi's birthday banquet was held in the Jinhua Palace, and a congratulatory gift was delivered early in the morning. The emperor ordered the queen to take care of it. The queen also wanted to take this opportunity to add some celebration to the harem. After all, the concubine recently With frequent accidents, the emperor is in an extremely bad mood, just like this gloomy weather, which makes people feel oppressed.

Qingchen met Feng Wanrong who was well-dressed under the corridor not far from the Jinhua Hall. The little girl behind her, Caixuan, was holding a dark green woven gold-patterned bag. It seemed that it contained Feng Wanrong's dance clothes and dancing clothes. shoe.

Feng Wanrong was not as stubborn as Shu Guiyi, when she saw her, she bowed slightly and said with a sweet smile, "Greetings to Concubine Rong."

Qing Chen lightly pursed his lips, and politely said perfunctorily: "Feng Wanrong doesn't need to be too polite, Shu Guiyi's birthday banquet is about to begin, why haven't you prepared to change clothes yet?"

The smile on Feng Wanrong's face remained undiminished, and she glanced at the side hall of the Jinhua Palace, where palace ladies kept coming in and out, busy preparing for the singing and dancing at the banquet, "Concubine, don't worry, the concubine's dance is at the end. Just let them get ready."

Qingchen nodded with a smile, "Yes, the good show is always to come. Feng Wanrong has worked so hard to practice for so long, I think today will definitely be an eye-opener."

Feng Wanrong shook the handkerchief in her hand, looking at Qingchen suddenly became a little hostile, and said in a helpless tone of self-pity: "This concubine is only capable, even if I practice hard , may not really be able to win the emperor's favor, how can it be like Empress Rong, even if she doesn't do anything, she can entrust the blessings of others, and the grace will continue."

Those two "others" were biting extremely hard, Qingchen could hear the mystery behind her words, and asked tit for tat: "I don't quite understand Feng Wanrong's meaning, let alone what I asked you to do." Whose blessing?"

The smile on the corners of Feng Wanrong's mouth deepened, but her face showed that she couldn't wait to watch the show, "Does your mother know Xie Wanyi? I heard that she is the emperor's favorite woman. A few years ago, she was arrested because of her family's treason." After the door was destroyed, the concubine was lucky enough to see a portrait of her in the emperor's study, the empress really looks like her."

"Are you waiting here just to talk to Bengong?" Qingchen said calmly, not minding at all: "Bengong has really heard of this person, but he was just a playmate of the emperor when he was young. Saying it's my favorite would be a bit of a stretch."

Feng Wanrong's smile froze for a moment, and then returned to normal. She approached and lowered her voice and asked, "I'm afraid it's not just as simple as a playmate. Do you want to hear about Xie Wanyi?"

Seeing her approaching, Qingchen felt even more disgusted when she saw the face so close, "About Xie Wanyi, He Shuyi thinks she knows better than you, after all, not everyone's lady has the opportunity to accompany the prince Yes, what you say is not very credible after all, so I believe her words even more."

Ignoring the unnatural look on Feng Wanrong's face, Qingchen continued: "I'm really not interested in hearing what Feng Wanrong said again, even if she was once the emperor's favorite person, I don't care. You just want to tell me , it is because of her that the emperor has favored me, isn't it?"

Feng Wanrong's eyes suddenly became sharp, and the deep smile on her face disappeared in an instant, "You know all about it? If my concubine doesn't believe it, you really don't care at all."
