royal princess

Chapter 254 Putting a long line and catching big fish! 2
Si Jin was silent for a while, looked at Qi Ronghua and asked, "Are there any other rumors out there about Mrs. Peng's falling into the water?"

"Yes, when the accident happened earlier, everyone said that Mrs. Peng is really a fool, and she is lucky to be a fool. She could be saved by the emperor even if she fell into the water. They also said that this incident is exactly the same as when you met the emperor who was sheltering from the rain. , everyone thought that there was going to be another empress in this palace, you."

Hearing this, Si Jin finally realized suddenly. No wonder when she first heard about it, she felt weird and always felt that something was wrong.Now being said by Qi Ronghua, it really... hits the nail on the head, and finally understands what's wrong.

This is to imitate her promotion path back then.

She just wanted to swear to express her depressed mood at this moment!

"Does Dou Fangyi look like me?" She had not opened her face back then, but she made her debut with the appearance of a noble concubine, and then she grew, and she escaped from this curse.

"The facial features are not the same, but Mrs. Peng always has a smell similar to your empress."

Si Jin understood, this thing is called temperament among them!

So, later on, Xiao Qi came back angrily, stayed up in the middle of the night, stared at her face, almost scared her to pee, just for this?

Not likely.

Anyway, Xiao Qi refuses to talk about this matter, it must be disgusting to him, something so disgusting that he can't speak...

Si Jin was silent.

So, when she was raising her baby, it was really lively outside.

It's obviously good to use her as a stepping stone and don't do anything?
It's no wonder that Aunt Jiang and the others sometimes hesitate to speak, they dare not say such things at all, right?

Only Qi Ronghua, who had changed his temper now, dared to say it in front of her. If Qi Ronghua from before, he probably wouldn't have said it so bluntly.

Suddenly I really like Qi Ronghua like this.

"Your Majesty, do you really intend to stay away from Yihexuan until you give birth?" Just who is allowed to step on Concubine Xi's name?
Si Jin looked at Qi Ronghua, "You should know about the concubine's coming to see me?"

The smile on Qi Ronghua's face froze, he looked at Si Jin and said, "I'm afraid there is no one in the harem who doesn't know, but I know my affairs so I can't be anxious, and I trust you."

Si Jin looked at Qi Ronghua and smiled, "I will definitely do what I promised you at the beginning, but don't be in a hurry now, because most of the time you also understand that we are all people who go with the flow. If you want to go against the flow, unless you If you have stronger power, otherwise you will definitely be buried there." He paused at this point and looked at Qi Ronghua, "Sometimes let yourself be happy."

"The concubine is very happy now, relying on the big tree of the empress, who else in the palace can give me face." Qi Ronghua pursed his lips and smiled, "I don't know how much more comfortable life is now than before. The concubine understands what the empress says, so don't worry, I know in my heart what I should do."

Si Jin nodded, knowing that Qi Ronghua was a smart person, "That's good, you know they all know you and I are friends, and they can't do anything with me, so don't get involved with you when the time comes. I've always been worried about Dou Fangyi, I always feel that if we had gone farther, such a result would not have happened.”

"Your Majesty thinks so?" Qi Ronghua was a little surprised, and then said: "How can you blame you for this, even if it is not because of you, it will be because of others, and if it is not because of others, it will also be because of power, living in the shadow of others Those who are below must know that most of the time, they have no way to control their own lives, like me, too."

Si Jin fell silent, Qi Ronghua saw it clearly.

If you can't sit in the highest position, you will always be a pawn in the hands of others.

Even if Xiao Qi achieved that position, he was often hindered.After several years now, the situation has improved a lot. Before that, even the emperor had to endure it.

"You always see it so thoroughly, I don't even know what to say to persuade you." Sometimes the language is very pale, making you powerless.

"So what concubines envy empress most is not her honor and favor, but her wisdom in life." Qi Ronghua lowered his head and smiled. There is no shortage of women who have stayed by the emperor's side in this palace, but there is no lack of Concubine Xi who has been so consistent for several years. The day stands firm.

Si Jin also laughed.

"Is the lady going to expose the matter of Mrs. Peng without knowing anything?" Qi Ronghua changed the subject and asked, it will not just pass like this until now.

In the small courtyard, there was silence like water.People from the Sanliang palace shuttled back and forth, all of them bowed their heads and lowered their hands, and the quiet atmosphere was like a mountain pressing on the tip of their hearts.

Peng Mingwei was sitting on the couch by the window. She was just a lady of the seventh rank, and the place she lived in was just a small side hall, with a total of three rooms inside and outside.She spends most of her daily work sitting on the couch by the window, watching the scenery outside through the window, and spends it day after day.

"My lord, it's time to drink the medicine." The curtain was lifted, and the maid Ming Xiang who was close to her came in, holding a boxwood tray in her hand and a steaming medicine cup on it.

The slightly bitter smell of medicine seems to be able to pass through the air, reaching Peng Mingwei's nose.She turned her head away in disgust, "Let's put it down first, and drink it later."

Ming Xiang put the medicine cup on the kang table and said with a smile: "Why don't you walk around the courtyard with the young master, the weather is very good today."

Peng Mingwei shook her head lightly, but there was a bit of vacancy on her young face, "No need, go get busy."

Mingxiang sighed inwardly, "Yes." He answered, turned and walked out.

Going out the door, lowering the curtain, looking up at the sky, I don't know how long it will last on such a day.Mingxiang sighed in his heart, but he thought in his heart that if he had the opportunity, it would be great if he could leave here. It would be better to have another person to take care of him than to suffer here day by day.

Who didn't make it out of life in the palace, the empress, the imperial concubine, even the most favored concubine Xi?But staying up is not the same as staying up. She also thought about being released from the palace when she was old, and wanted to reunite with her family, and then talk about a marriage, so that in the future, her children and grandchildren will be around her.

But now she doesn't know if she still has such a life, she doesn't want to die in this palace, she wants to get out alive.

"Sister Mingxiang."

Ming Xiang turned his head and saw An Ling leaning over and smiled at her, "Have you finished all your work?"

An Ling nodded, "I've finished it a long time ago, and now I don't have any other work. I do it every day, and I finished it early." At this point, he pulled Ming Xiang to a corner and said in a low voice: "Ming Xiang Sister Xiang, I... I want to ask my aunt in charge to transfer me an errand, even if it means going to the Imperial Garden as a rough envoy. I... I want to ask my sister to pass me a word."

Ming Xiang was taken aback, then glanced at An Ling, "Why did you say this all of a sudden? But what did you hear?"

An Ling lowered her head, holding the corners of her clothes with both hands uneasily, and said after a while: "I'm afraid, Sister Mingxiang, I'm afraid. You said that our little master offended the concubine Xi, can we get along well? Qiao Xiaoyi Mi Yan over there smiled at me when he came, I had nightmares all night, I was really scared, Sister Mingxiang, I was terribly scared.”

An Ling's hand tightly held Ming Xiang's hand, so strong that it hurt her, but Ming Xiang didn't push her away, but said in a low voice: "It's not something I can just pass a word to." , I... may not be able to help you." She also wanted to leave, but she still couldn't leave, and she didn't have the ability to help An Ling.

"I know my sister is the kindest, just help me this time." An Ling was about to cry, although the emperor rescued the young master from falling into the water, but the emperor didn't even look at the young master.After landing, they flicked their sleeves and went all the way to Yihexuan. At that time, their hearts were cold.She still remembered how the young master was half lying on the icy ground, the water on his clothes soaked the bluestone slabs, even if it wasn't a stately beauty, but I still feel pity for it, but... the emperor didn't feel moved at all, She actually avoided it like a snake and went directly to Yihexuan.

What kind of means does Concubine Xi have to draw the emperor's soul into such a state?

The young master used such means to seduce the emperor, what happened?Who in the whole palace saw them now and sneered with disdain.What's more, she has been worried about how Concubine Xi will deal with them. She hasn't had a good night's sleep these days, and she has lost a lot of weight.If this continues like this, she will scare herself to death before Concubine Xi can make a move. She really can't bear it anymore.

Ming Xiang didn't speak, An Ling was a little anxious, looked at her and said in a hurry: "Sister Ming Xiang, let's all go, the young master listened to Qiao Xiaoyi's words, and wanted to be favored with all her heart. Now it's like this As a result, if this continues, I'm afraid that we will all die out of here. I also thought that I would leave the palace and go home when I was old. My mother came back to visit me and told me that Erniu brother next door to my house was still waiting for me. He Mother beat him half to death to marry him, but he didn't agree, I don't want him to just wait until the news of my death... Sister Mingxiang, let's all go, go and ask my aunt in charge, let's go together."

Ming Xiang's eyes slowly turned red, and she looked up at An Ling, the little girl was timid and devoted herself to her errands, this time she was really scared out of her wits, that's why she was afraid of this.It's true, Concubine Xi was slapped in the face by the young master and wanted to win the favor, but she hasn't moved yet, who knows if she is waiting for a good time?

"Okay, I'll speak for you in front of the aunt in charge, but I can't guarantee whether I can transfer you out."

"What about sister?" An Ling grabbed Ming Xiang's sleeve and refused to let go, her eyes were fixed on her.

"Of course we have to go, but the two of us can't go together. First, the little master can't be served by anyone, and second, we have to diverge, otherwise it will be too eye-catching."
