royal princess

Chapter 156 The Tsundere Attribute 1
The imperial concubine sighed lightly, looked at Xiao Qi's frown, and said softly: "At first, the concubine didn't want to care about this matter, but when I was playing with Yuzhen in the afternoon, I saw Concubine Yugui sitting alone in the pavilion Weeping, I asked a question. It is said that there is an empress in the palace who is in charge of the palace affairs, but the concubine, as a noble concubine, can't just ignore such a thing, so I invited the emperor here." There was a pause here, and then sighed again, "Sister Yugui has always been the strongest, this is the first time this concubine sees her crying so sadly."

Concubine Yugui choked up when she heard the words, "The concubine only thought about being sisters of the same family. A few days ago, I heard that the people in the palace next to Xi Wanyi scolded Su Xiunv, so I thought about it." A word of persuasion, who knew that Xi Wanyi cursed the concubine, saying that the concubine's family valued peace every day. The concubine had good intentions, but who knew that it would be fine if she was outnumbered, and she even arranged a concubine The concubine is really wronged to have the Ministry of Criminal Justice involved."

The imperial concubine looked at Concubine Yugui with a troubled expression, "Sister Concubine, please don't be sad. Sister Xi Ronghua is young after all, maybe she is impulsive, and she has no malicious intentions."

"The imperial concubine is just too kind-hearted. Everyone is a good person. Then Xi Ronghua sued the concubine in front of the empress a few days ago, and even the concubine was disgusted by the empress. How could I provoke her to provoke her?" Now, this is no room for concubines." Yu Guifei cried more and more sadly, remembering that the emperor hadn't looked at her in the past two years, and hated Xi Ronghua even more.

"The empress is in charge of the affairs of the six palaces, and it has always been the most fair. Maybe there is some misunderstanding here, so let's just let it go." The concubine said soothingly.

Misunderstand?Who caused the misunderstanding?The imperial concubine did not name her name, but this hat was slammed on Xi Ronghua's head fiercely. Concubine Yugui couldn't help but feel complacent. She couldn't believe that the emperor still favored that vixen!

Xiao Qi's frown could not be relaxed, he glanced at Concubine Yugui, then turned his head to look at Concubine Gui, "So, this is what happened this afternoon?"

The noble concubine didn't quite understand why the emperor would ask this, so she nodded, "Exactly, when the concubine took Yuzhen out for a walk in the afternoon, I happened to meet Concubine Yugui."

"Then..." Xiao Qi turned his head and looked at Concubine Yugui again, "Where did you hear about Xi Ronghua?"

Concubine Yugui got stuck for a while, shouldn't the emperor be very annoyed by Xi Ronghua's actions, and then feel pity for being bullied?The expression on his face couldn't help being startled, and he subconsciously looked at the imperial concubine.

As soon as the imperial concubine met Concubine Yugui's eyes, she knew something was wrong, so she quickly pretended not to see Concubine Yugui's eyes.Just look at Xiao Qi with a calm smile on his face.

Xiao Qi slowly withdrew his gaze, "Why didn't Concubine Yugui answer?"

"Chenqie... Chenqie just heard about it when the sisters in the palace were chatting."

"It turned out to be gossip, and there is no real evidence, how can you just say it?"

Concubine Yugui trembled all over, quickly rolled down from the stool, knelt on the ground and quickly said: "The emperor redeemed, my concubine...the concubine is not just talking about it, many people in this palace know about this matter, the concubine...the concubine... The concubine was just asking casually. Therefore, I didn't expect Xi Ronghua to become angry from embarrassment, so I lost my temper."

Xiao Qi didn't look at Concubine Yugui any more, but instead looked at Concubine Su Gui, "How does Concubine Su think this matter should be dealt with?"

The smile on the noble concubine's face was about to froze. Hearing the emperor's question, she couldn't sit still. She immediately stood up, bowed her knees and saluted, and then said slowly: "Your majesty is wise, what do you say? Only then did the concubine realize that she was confused when she cared about it for a while, but she forgot to ask about it. It was really pitiful to see Yugui concubine's sister crying at that time, and she had no time to look around."

Xiao Qi stood up slowly, stretched out his hand to caress his cuffs, but his expression sank, "In this case, let the noble concubine check this matter out. Although it was just a momentary quarrel between Concubine Yugui and Xi Ronghua , but after all, it is about the innocence of the family, and the concubine should check it carefully." Having said this, she looked at the pale face of the concubine and added, "Don't be wronged or wronged, this matter will be dealt with Let the queen know and let her not interfere."

The imperial concubine swayed, gritted her teeth, and could only speak: "The concubine obeys the order, and must live up to the emperor's entrustment."

"I have always trusted the noble concubine. You have always been a peace of mind. You have won my heart. How can I believe that the noble concubine will be able to investigate clearly. Since the concubine Yu Gui is so wronged, the noble concubine should comfort her well." Xiao Qi finished speaking This sentence, with a flick of the sleeve, turned around and walked out.

The imperial concubine couldn't come up at a stretch, she almost fainted, but she still remembered the etiquette rules, she personally sent Xiao Qi out, wanted to say something, but the emperor didn't give her this chance, and strode away.

The imperial concubine supported the door frame to stand firm, but she couldn't figure out what went wrong in this matter to make the emperor so unhappy.As soon as he turned around, he saw Concubine Yu Gui standing there with a dazed expression, and immediately became angry, and said: "You can't do even a little thing well, what use does this palace want you for?"

Concubine Yugui trembled all over, her face was as white as paper, her hands were tightly clasped together, and she said with a livid face: "The ministers and concubines all follow the orders of the empress. If you know what offended the emperor, please ask your empress to point it out."

If she could give pointers, she wouldn't be so angry.I thought that after such a thing happened, the emperor would not leave tonight.In the end, not only did he leave, but he also left with anger, which made her wonder for a while, what went wrong?

No matter how hard it is to figure out what went wrong, the imperial concubine understands one thing, the emperor doesn't like people talking about Xi Ronghua's natal background.Originally, he wanted to use this to step on Xi Ronghua fiercely, but who would have thought that the emperor would protect his shortcomings to such an extent.

If the Su family is really innocent, how could the Su family in Quzhou drive people out?The emperor was fascinated by Xi Ronghua, so he didn't even know right from wrong?
Su Guifei gritted her teeth angrily, looked even more angry at Concubine Yugui, and waved her hand, "Go back first, think about what happened today, what went wrong, come back tomorrow. If you can't give an explanation for this matter, you will really have no dignity in front of the emperor, and you will have no place to rise in the palace in this life. Don't look at this box, Xi Ronghua's status is not as high as yours, if She can give birth to the emperor's eldest son in one fell swoop, even if it is a leapfrog concubine, it may not be impossible, and then you will have to live by her face for the rest of your life."

The concubine Yugui swayed and was startled by the concubine's words, "Your Majesty, no... no way?"How is it possible, even if you give birth to the eldest son of the emperor, you can't ignore the rules of your ancestors.

"How can it be impossible? The emperor has been married for so many years, and so far only the princess from this palace is under his knees." The noble concubine felt a headache. How many people in the harem were staring at the position of the eldest son of the emperor. Well, the emperor may not rule out the public opinion to give Xi Ronghua this honor.

Originally, she was still a little uncertain, but the emperor's attitude today made her feel a little uneasy.

A concubine is nothing, there are four concubines above the concubine, and she is the head of the four concubines, Xi Ronghua will never surpass her status in this life.But there is a huge difference between having a pet and not having a pet.

The imperial concubine drove away the concubine Yugui, who was out of her mind, and sat alone in the room anxiously, unable to calm down for a while.Open your mouth. Aunt Hua called in, rubbed her forehead and said, "Send a message to the family tomorrow, and let them investigate the grievances between Su and the Su family in Quzhou."

"Yes." Aunt Hua quickly responded, she has been waiting at the door, and naturally she could hear the movement in the room clearly, at this moment, seeing that the imperial concubine was so disturbed, she said: "My lady, why are you so troubled, To put it simply, this matter is just that Concubine Yugui annoyed Xi Ronghua, and the worst result in the end is just to make Concubine Yugui say goodbye to Xironghua. If the emperor is angry, can he still blame the empress? In the end, the unlucky one is only Concubine Yugui, as long as the empress can convince the emperor that this matter has nothing to do with the empress is enough."

"But now the emperor is clearly suspicious of me, this matter is not easy to handle."

"Actually, it's not impossible." Aunt Hua said in a low voice.

The imperial concubine looked up at Aunt Hua, "Say."

"If it's really not possible, the empress will give Xi Ronghua a favor to find out the truth of the incident back then. Didn't the emperor ask to find out? Just really investigate. If Xironghua's family is really innocent, the empress will For their family's reputation, Xi Ronghua still owes the empress a favor. The emperor saw that the empress really checked the matter clearly, and the suspicion of the empress disappeared. "

"Let me tell you this, this palace not only failed to eradicate Xi Ronghua, but also helped her a lot?"

"Your Majesty, why should you only look in front of your eyes? Does Xi Ronghua have enough foundation? When this year's showgirls are awarded, someone will naturally get the emperor's favor. At that time, the Empress will operate one or two of them. After Xi Ronghua falls out of favor, think How to deal with her is not a word from the empress?"

The imperial concubine was naturally unwilling, but there was no better way now, so she could only sigh and say: "It's cheap for Xi Ronghua!" She was really depressed, so she shot herself in the foot.

"Your Majesty, don't be angry, it's only temporary. If the Emperor wants to investigate, Your Majesty will investigate openly. Since the Empress Dowager is not allowed to intervene, the throne may not have the meaning of letting the Empress stand on her feet." Aunt Hua persuaded softly. The days brought about Xi Ronghua's pregnancy, and the empress inevitably became a little impatient when she started to do things. The emperor would have noticed this today. Fortunately, the loophole is not too big, and it can still be repaired.
