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

Chapter 877
She knew that Concubine Ning's words just now were intended for everyone to listen to, and they were nothing more than satirizing the empress's fake mercy. Yesterday, the empress sent someone to her palace to spread the word. After going all over the harem, who would believe that the empress would take pity on her now?
Concubine Li was sitting across from her, seeing her fragile appearance, she couldn't help but sneered: "I thought Concubine Chen was uncomfortable because she was neglected by the emperor, and she was impatient to come out to meet people, but I didn't expect that she was really sick. I don't know if your illness is more of a heart disease, or more of a body ailment, if it is a body ailment, there are good medicines to treat it, but if it is a heart disease, it is really difficult to cure."

Hao Wanyi snorted softly, and said in a strange way: "What's so difficult to cure? As the saying goes, if you have a heart disease, you have to treat it with your heart. As long as the emperor can spare time to see Concubine Chen, maybe Concubine Chen will be cured by the medicine by this time tomorrow. Keep it safe." It is more effective than the magic pill you gave the emperor, Concubine Li."

Sang Guirong couldn't understand Hao Wanyi's pretentious appearance, and continued to sneer: "Have you seen the magic pill that Concubine Li gave to the emperor? If you haven't, how do you know that the pill is not effective? If it is really a good thing, Chen The concubine will not try her best to stop and anger the emperor, there has never been a lack of people in this palace who use those dirty tricks to compete for favor."

Concubine Li hooked her lips coldly, narrowed her eyes slightly, and looked at Sang Guirong and asked with pity: "Hao Wanyi has never seen the elixir that this palace dedicated to the emperor, so have you seen Sang Guirong? If not , and why insist that the palace is using the tricks of the three abuses to compete for favor? The things that the concubine Chen despises must not be good things. If this is the case, why does the emperor like the pills brought in by the palace so much? , Is the Emperor's vision of things not as good as that of Concubine Chen? Or do you think the Emperor is bewitched by me and can't tell the good from the bad?"

Sang Guirong was not fooled by her, and then she asked about the emperor, but said indifferently: "There are so many sisters in the palace, is there any one who does not care about the emperor? If they all have such thoughts, give me It’s alright if the emperor throws in food randomly? The concubine only cares about the emperor, as for the other things, the concubine is also powerless, what can I do when the villain gets his way?”

"I am a villain, so is Sang Guirong a gentleman?" Concubine Li's voice was not high, but there was a sense of threat, "Since Sang Guirong treats the emperor so sincerely, the emperor must also feel sorry for her." Yours, I will wait and see how Sang Guirong's sincerity can be exchanged for the emperor's affection?"

Sang Guirong's face changed slightly, and she clenched the silk handkerchief in her hand nervously. She knew that because of her miscarriage, the queen was reprimanded and forced to move to the palace. Now that she came back, she would naturally not personally deal with her, otherwise wouldn't she Suspected of revenge, damaging her reputation?Therefore, this kind of thing must be done by Concubine Li. Except for Concubine Chen, there are few people who would not be afraid of this woman's insidiousness.

Sang Guirong kept her mouth shut and didn't dare to contradict her anymore, the hall was instantly quiet, Qing Chen was already impatient to listen to their verbal arguments, but leaned a little tiredly on the corner of the table, waiting for the queen to come out.

As for the few newcomers who had just entered the palace, seeing the disharmony between the concubines, they all had expressions of fear on their faces, and no one was willing to say anything more, for fear of causing dissatisfaction.

Not long after, the queen came out of the warm pavilion with a graceful posture holding Zheyue's hand, and all the concubines hurriedly followed Concubine Ning to get up and greet the queen.

Today, the queen is wearing a bright red palace dress with cloud brocade embroidery, golden phoenix, peony and flowing clouds pattern, wearing a nine-phoenix hairpin with a beaded hairpin, emerald inlaid with emeralds inlaid with Ruyi Ruyi, wearing a red gold plate Chi Yingluo ring on her neck, lightly applied makeup powder, the whole body looks beautiful It looks graceful and luxurious, but also in good spirits.

Qingchen clearly felt this change of the empress. It seems that after that censure, the empress moved back to Chengkun Palace, but she felt more dignified and majestic than before. It's a little more gorgeous than before, I don't know if it's deliberately done for others to see, or because of some kind of change in her mentality.

The queen glanced at everyone, and when her eyes passed over Qingchen, she didn't seem to stop deliberately, she just smiled and said: "Everyone sit down, today you are all here."

Zheyue took the tea from the little palace lady's hand and handed it over. The empress calmly took the lid of the cup and lightly flicked the tea foam in the white porcelain bowl covered with gilded peony in her hand. After taking a few sips of tea, she suddenly looked up at Qingchen and smiled. Said: "Concubine Chen's health is better? I only think that you are angry with the emperor, that's why you stay behind closed doors for so many days. You are the concubine, and it is important to set an example for the concubines under you, so this palace I just asked someone to spread the word, let you come to this palace today to have a sit down, and chat with these younger sisters who have just entered the palace to relax, but now it seems that this palace is worrying too much. If you know that you are really If you are not feeling well, no one should bother you. Now that the weather is cold, and your body is weak, you should take good care of it. "

Then he turned his head and told Zheyue, "I will send the two hundred-year-old ginseng trees rewarded by the emperor to Concubine Chen to make up for her body. In addition, I will tell the House of Internal Affairs that Concubine Chen is ill, so don't be short of ginseng from her palace." expense."

Qingchen thought that the queen was really exhausted, she had to give her the rewards from the emperor in front of everyone, even though she was obviously not expected to be seen by the emperor, it seemed like the emperor cared so much for the central palace.Even if she is ill, the House of Internal Affairs has Xiao Yinzi, how can she be short of expenses, why is the queen trying to sell well?
But since the queen has shown such tolerance and consideration in front of people, she can't lose her manners and provoke criticism, so she hurriedly stood up and blessed Yifu with a hoarse voice: "I thank the empress for your pity. I was ill before, and I haven't been able to Coming here to serve the Empress, I am really suffering from illness, and I am afraid that I will give the sisters the sickness, so I have never dared to come here to pay my respects to the empress, and I also ask the empress to forgive me."

The queen saw that her face was pale, her lips were pale, she was probably sick and impatient to dress up, she didn't even wear a few pieces of jewelry, and she looked so weak that she looked like she was about to fall when the wind blows, so she couldn't help but sighed: " Bengong is really distressed to see you like this, please sit down quickly, I know that you have always been caring, and you are the most polite, but you don't have to rush to wait on me, let's talk about it when you recover."

Qingchen blessed again respectfully and said: "My concubine, I would like to thank the empress."

The queen sighed again: "I heard that the emperor has been refusing to summon the concubine Chen. You don't have to be too sad. After a while, the emperor's anger subsides and you are healthy. Then I will help you in the future." The emperor interceded in front of the emperor, and this matter is over. Men, there are some people who are greedy for new things. Don’t you think that when you were favored, you also let the sisters be left out? It’s good to get used to some things. It was for you before, The emperor has been delaying the selection process again and again, but now that newcomers enter the palace, the atmosphere in the palace is different after all, and the sisters in the harem can only be in harmony with the rain and dew, and you must understand this ideal even if the palace doesn’t tell you.”
