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

Chapter 880 Li Wei (3)
Qingchen hooked his lips slightly, and smiled reluctantly: "Sister Concubine Ning is willing to tell me this, so it can be seen that it is really for my own good, and she has said everything so thoroughly. I'm so uneducated. I know very well what the queen's purpose is in today's incident, and I won't take it to heart. Even though I'm sick and unable to think about things, I'm not so confused that I even care about other people's intentions Don't wear it."

Concubine Ning shook her arm with a smile and said: "That's good. Smart people don't suffer themselves. It is serious to go back and take care of your body. The more sick you are, the more troubles you will have in the palace. Some words I don't need to tell you that you can understand that even the eunuch who sweeps the floor of the Miscellaneous Bureau will not pay attention to a concubine who has been ill for a long time. No matter how the emperor treats you, you have to find a way to take care of yourself. Otherwise, You will lose not only the favor of the emperor."

Qingchen naturally understood how heavy these words were. The dark cloud covering her heart kept her breathless, but Concubine Ning's words suddenly woke her up. Yes, if she loses power at all , what about Xiao Yinzi?What about the people around her?They follow her loyally, and it can be said that they have bet everything on themselves, even their lives. What right does she have to disregard the safety of others because of her own sorrow?
It turned out that at this point, she didn't even have the qualifications to be sad and decadent.

Qing Chen gave a blessing, and said softly: "Thank you, Concubine Ning, for your reminder, otherwise I don't know when I will get better from this illness. This place is too close to Chengkun Palace, we have been chatting here for a long time, I am afraid It will attract people's attention, and it's getting late, why don't you let the younger sister send the older sister to the sedan chair?"

Concubine Ning said with a smile: "You, it's always clear at one point. This is the most worry-free place. Well, I don't need you to send it. You are still sick. Go back and rest earlier."

Out of politeness, Qingchen still stood aside and watched Concubine Ning get into the sedan chair, then turned around and walked back with Yun Lan and Jinxiu.

Yun Lan reminded softly at the side: "Your Majesty, you are not feeling well, why don't you go back in a sedan chair?"

Qingchen took a deep breath of the cool morning air, couldn't help coughing a few more times, but still liked the misty morning scenery in the imperial garden, so she said to Yunlan: "Let me take a walk for a while to relax." , if you don’t let me see the scenery outside, I’m afraid I’m going to be suffocated to death.”

The path paved with cobblestones was slippery due to the heavy dew, as if someone had splashed water on it. Yun Lan carefully supported her and advised her in a low voice, "Don't take the Queen's words to heart. Calling the empress to come here is out of ill intentions, to humiliate the empress and make her unable to hold her head up in front of everyone."

Qingchen sneered and said: "I haven't done anything wrong, so how can I let her bully me? At the beginning, she couldn't suppress Concubine Shu's arrogance, but now she sees me as a thorn in her side, so she wants to overwhelm me in terms of arrogance. If she is not allowed to touch a soft nail, she will use me as a raft for everything in the future? I, the concubine, am not her punching bag!"

Yun Lan smiled in relief, Concubine Shu's sternness was on the bright side, but Qing Chen's sharpness was in her heart, it would not be so easy for the empress to use her to make her powerful.

She walked on the small path, and saw that there was a spacious road ahead, Yun Lan said to Jinxiu: "Go pass the soft sedan chair, let them go ahead and wait for the empress."

Jinxiu hurriedly responded, Qingchen lowered his head inadvertently, and saw that the sachet of broken branches and begonias with golden thread embroidered by Yunlan on his body had fallen somewhere at some point. If someone picks up her personal belongings, it’s okay if there is no right and wrong, but if it is really picked up by someone with ulterior motives, it is inevitable that she will not be able to explain clearly at that time, so she told Yun Lan, "I lost the sachet, go back and help me quickly." Look for it, it only takes a while, maybe you can still find it."

Yun Lan hesitated for a moment, then heard Qing Chen say: "The main road is ahead, I will walk slowly and nothing will happen, you go and come back quickly."

It was only a few dozen steps away, Yun Lan saw that there was no one around, so she responded and turned back to look for things in peace.

On this side, Qingchen turned around and walked a short distance, when he heard someone laughing behind him: "Chen Concubine, please stay."

The voice was very unfamiliar, and when Qingchen turned his head, he saw a petite woman turning out from the path in the rockery forest with a smile on her face.

Today in the Queen's Palace, Qingchen has seen Qin Lin's two Wanyis, Han Shuyi and Qu Zhaoyi, but he has never seen the woman in front of him. He thinks she is either He Ronghua or Wei Guiren. A good rouge red weaving gold dark flower brocade cloud brocade palace dress, full of pearls and jade dazzling, only that branch of southern pearls and flowers and gold-plated steps is already beyond the limit, thinking about the words of the empress Shicai in the Jiaofang Palace, I am satisfied Of course.

When we met for the first time, even if I didn't like her in my heart, I still wanted to show some affection. Qingchen smiled decently and asked, "Is this Mrs. Wei?"

Mrs. Wei didn't bring her maid, but with a food box in his hand, he walked up to her and blessed her body, saying: "My concubine pays her respects to your mother, good luck to your mother."

Qingchen stood still, but gently ordered: "Your Majesty Wei, there is no need to be too polite, please get up quickly."

Wei Changxin was a little surprised, and asked in confusion: "The concubine has never met the concubine before, how can the concubine know the concubine?"

Qingchen sneered in his heart, with such a flamboyant attire, who would dare to wear the Nanzhu Buyao that only a third-rank concubine can wear as a seventh-rank nobleman, except for the nobleman Wei who is currently being favored?

Even though he thought so in his heart, there was no trace on his face, he just smiled and said: "I heard that Mrs. Wei is very beautiful, and I only saw the rumors today when I met him. It is no wonder that the emperor loves Mrs. Wei so much."

Before she finished speaking, Wei Guiren's delicate little face suddenly smiled strangely, and threw the food box in his hand at her feet with a bang.

Although her actions were puzzling, Qingchen didn't move at all. She was used to too many thrilling scenes, and her heart was no longer frightened by these sudden events.

Wei Guiren didn't speak, so she just looked at her quietly, waiting for her explanation.

But at this moment, Mrs. Wei did something even more incomprehensible to her. She suddenly pulled out the Nanzhu step shaker on her head, threw it on the ground and stomped it hard a few times, then raised her hand hard He slapped himself twice, plopped and knelt in front of Qingchen, weeping and crying: "Concubine Chen, please forgive this concubine. It has only been a few days since my concubine entered the palace. If you offend your empress, please forgive me." Sin, it's the Nanzhu Buyao, which the emperor allowed concubines to wear. The emperor also said that concubines are new to the palace, so they don't have to follow the rules of the palace for the time being, and they can learn it slowly from the teaching mother in the future. The empress blames concubines for overstepping, but the emperor likes concubines to wear this walker, and concubines are just to make the emperor happy. The empress wants to set rules for the concubines. The concubines dare not disobey the teachings of the empress, so I beg the empress to forgive Concubine this time, concubine will never dare again in the future."
