Chapter 91

Because she showed her face at the New Year's Eve banquet, she looked good in the eyes of outsiders, so Chu Xue no longer claimed to be sick, and went to Fengyi Palace every day to invite her early as before, even though the only person she met in Fengyi Palace at this time was Three people.

Although Chu Xue has become thinner, her beauty has not diminished. She dresses up carefully every day and puts on her imperial concubine's fancy dress. She is still the most outstanding beauty in the harem. Although Li Concubine is beautiful, she is too young and too frivolous. In terms of bearing alone, he has already lost a lot.

Every time I see Chu Xue dressed up in Fengyi Palace, regardless of the jealousy in Concubine Li's heart, the empress Xu on the main seat is already so angry that she wants to go crazy!

Just in case, she ordered Fengyi Palace physician Zhang Tiantian to secretly check Chu Xue's medical records. Zhang Tiantian finally found out after a lot of effort. She tried her best to cover up her name, but the medicine prescribed for Chu Xue turned out to be for miscarriage.This woman is really pregnant!
If you are pregnant, you will be pregnant, but this bitch is pretending to be ostentatious in front of her every day. What is the meaning of this bitch?
Do you think you have the capital to be favored again, dare to provoke yourself in front of the queen!
Chu Xue's still alluring beauty was reflected in her eyes, and Empress Xu gritted her teeth secretly.

Although she didn't know that Chu Xue was pregnant, Concubine Li also felt that she had changed a lot recently.

After returning to Lingyue Palace from Fengyi Palace that day, Luxuan, the maid next to Concubine Li, quietly remonstrated: "Master, I feel that Concubine Yigui is not quite the same as before."

"Oh?" Concubine Li asked, "What's different?"

Luxuan explained: "When the emperor was in the palace, Concubine Yi was seldom ostentatious like this, but do you think she has become more and more gorgeous recently? It is said that the emperor has been cold to her for so long, she shouldn't Is that so? Could it be..."

"Could it be what?" Concubine Li hurriedly asked.

"Could it be that she can't see that the emperor dotes on you, and she is dressing up like you, and after the emperor comes back, she will try to charm the king's heart?" Lu Xuan said, quietly looking at the master's expression.

Seeing that Concubine Li was really thinking, as if she had listened to her words in her heart.

Concubine Li actually felt that what Lu Xuan said was very reasonable.

Based on what she observed after she came to Qi Palace, Chu Xue really didn't like flamboyant dresses in the past. To be honest, with her appearance, even with light makeup, she has already outperformed many others, which really makes Concubine Li jealous, but she recently It is indeed more publicity, those colors that used to belong to Concubine Li have completely compared herself to her, which is really uncomfortable!
Concubine Li thought and thought, and felt that Luxuan's analysis was correct. Chu Xue's behavior was indeed suspected of imitating herself. The emperor was so close to her before leaving the palace. , and even sent rare treasures to Jinli not far away, what is this not a pet?Now that Chu Xue is like this, she must want to win her favor after the emperor returns.

What she has just acquired must not be easily handed over to others!
Concubine Li gritted her teeth angrily, and asked Lu Xuan, "What you said is very reasonable, so in your opinion, if the emperor comes back, will she still snatch her away?"

Luxuan hurriedly said: "That's hard to say, master, think about it, Concubine Yi used to be a favorite, the emperor's love for her is by no means a day or two! What's more, she has a little princess in her hand, and now the emperor What I love the most is this little princess, when the time comes when the mother and daughter will use their tricks together, it is inevitable that the emperor will not rekindle his old love for her!"

Hearing such reasonable and well-founded remarks, Concubine Li felt more and more sense of crisis, she imagined what it would be like if the emperor was hooked by that woman again... her heart was filled with unwillingness, and she said angrily: "No, we must not let She snatched the emperor away again! What should I do?"

This Luxuan is the lady-in-waiting that the empress specially pointed out to her, and she is indeed much smarter than the two brought over from Jin Li. It was because of her method a while ago that the emperor loves to stay in Lingyue Palace even more. This lady-in-waiting can always Thinking of some useful ideas for herself has already surpassed those two dowry girls and has become her most dependent confidant now.

Seeing that Luxuan thought for a while, she comforted her and said: "Master, don't worry, the emperor hasn't come back yet. No matter what she does, it's useless now. Besides, there is the empress, the empress is helping you like this." , let's go ask her opinion, that's right!"

By the way, there is also the queen, who is the most capable person in the palace, Concubine Li nodded, and planned to ask the queen later.

Concubine Li was young after all, she couldn't hold on to things, after lunch and rest, she hurried to Fengyi Palace.

Unexpectedly, Yuanjia's road is narrow, and the sedan chair carrying her had just left the house when it collided with the sedan chair of Yufu Palace.Luxuan reminded softly outside the sedan chair, "Master, it's Concubine Yi."

However, Concubine Li in the sedan chair only hummed, and seemed to have no intention of getting off the sedan chair.

Although according to the rules, she has to get off the sedan chair to greet Chu Xue, but she is really not in the mood today. Thinking of the woman who has been competing with her for beauty recently, and thinking of her wanting to steal her favor, Concubine Li, who has always been proud and arrogant, is even more distressed Ping, she really didn't want to bow down to such a woman.

Concubine Li's sedan chair did not land for a long time, and there was a stalemate in the atmosphere. After a while, Chu Xue only heard the first voice from the opposite sedan chair, "Who is it?"

Yanling leaned into the window and said, "Going back to the imperial concubine, she is the concubine Li of Lingyue Palace."

"Oh?" Hearing the contempt in Chu Xue's voice, she asked, "Since it's Concubine Li, why don't you ask me to greet you? What's the meaning of this stalemate?"

The palace people around Concubine Li were all stunned. Hearing this, Nishang hurriedly advised softly outside the sedan chair: "Master, according to the rules, you have to get off the sedan chair to salute."

Concubine Li didn't want to go back, but she knew in her heart that if Chu Xue used her status to suppress her, she would still suffer, so she reluctantly said "get off the sedan chair", and then walked out through the curtain.

Slowly moving to the front of Chu Xue's sedan chair, she bowed her knees and saluted, saying: "The concubine has seen the imperial concubine."

But after the words were finished, the people in the sedan chair remained silent just like she did before.

After a while, thinking that Concubine Li had been frozen enough, Chu Xue said unhurriedly: "So you still understand the palace rules! I thought you came from a foreign country and didn't know the etiquette of Daqi, so I prepared Send a nanny to teach in your palace!"

The tone of the words was not kind, and she hadn't said the words to forgive her, everyone present, including Concubine Li herself, understood that Concubine Yi Gui was really angry.

With people under the eaves, Concubine Li had no choice but to bow her head no matter how angry she was. She was shivering in the cold wind as she forced herself to salute.After enduring and enduring, Concubine Li finally asked for forgiveness, and argued: "Your Majesty misunderstood, just now, this concubine didn't know it was you, that's why I haven't greeted you for so long, I will definitely pay attention next time..."

"There is no need to come back!"

Chu Xue, who was in the sedan chair, said: "It's understandable that you can't see it in the sedan chair, but are all the servants around you blind? They can't even recognize the sedan chair of my palace? Or do you recognize it clearly but don't report it to you?" ?”

Her calm but cold voice came from behind the sedan chair curtain, and she said: "Come here, the maids of Lingyue Palace ignored my palace and caused Concubine Li to commit crimes. I will give you fifty slaps."

As soon as these words came out, the palace people of Lingyue Palace were all dumbfounded, and Luxuan couldn't believe her ears, so she slapped fifty?Whose mouth do you want to palm?

After she reacted, she realized that Concubine Yi Gui wanted to slap her mouth. She is the big palace maid next to Concubine Li, who else is there?
Concubine Li also had a look of disbelief, because she got out of the sedan chair a bit late, this woman who is called a noble concubine is going to beat her?

But whether she believed it or not, she saw that Yanling was already pulling up her cuffs, and Chu Xue in the sedan chair seemed to remember something again, and added a special sentence, "Let the rich go."

After all, Fugui is a man, even though he has been eunuched, he is much stronger than Yanling.

Seeing that Fugui hurriedly responded, he stepped forward quickly, and went straight to the terrified Luxuan.

"you dare!"

Seeing Fugui grabbing Luxuan by the collar and about to raise her hand, Concubine Li screamed.

Chu Xue, who was in the sedan chair, sneered and asked, "Why wouldn't he dare? He is the chief eunuch in charge of my palace, so why not dare to act according to my palace's will?"

Then he told Fugui: "It turns out that Concubine Li doesn't even understand this, so how can I serve the emperor in the future? The people of Lingyue Palace really failed their duties, give me a slap in the face, and make her remember better!"

Concubine Li was out of breath and wanted to say something, but was hurriedly persuaded by the dowry maid who rushed up.

No more worries, Fugui raised his hand and slapped it down hard, without any pity, after the fifty brisk slaps were over, Luxuan's delicate and clean face was already too horrible to look at, and even Fugui himself felt numb.

Seeing Fugui shaking his hands again and again, Yanling secretly rejoiced that he didn't do it himself, and would embroider clothes for Le'er later, if his hands were numb, how could he pinch the embroidery needles!

After all the people in Yufu Palace got angry, it was too cold to stay for a long time, Yanling persuaded: "My lady, it's cold, let's go back to the palace quickly!"

Hearing Chu Xue lightly hummed, Yan Ling hurriedly raised her voice, "Go back to the palace."

No matter what she said, she ignored Concubine Li who was still standing outside, and the group walked away.

After they walked away, Concubine Li shook off the maid who had been pulling her all the time, looked at Luxuan who was bleeding from the corner of her mouth, clenched her fists and gritted her teeth, and said, "I will definitely pay back this debt!"

After speaking, he got on the sedan chair and continued to Fengyi Palace.

In Fengyi Palace, after listening to Concubine Li's cry, Xu Jinhe looked at Nishang's swollen face, which was already horribly swollen, and pretended to comfort her: "Concubine Yi is like this, it is indeed a bit unkind, as the saying goes, you have to watch the dog Master, venting your anger on someone like this is clearly a demonstration against you!"

This is what Concubine Li wanted to hear the most at this time. If the queen said it, she must be on her side. She hurriedly asked: "In the opinion of the queen, should the concubine be humiliated by her like this?"

The greater the conflict between these two women, the more beneficial it will be to Xu Jinhe. Since the queen mother and the emperor are not in the palace, it is a good time for her to do something. Xu Jinhe urgently needs Concubine Li to do things for her willingly. It couldn't be better.

Xu Jinhe said: "Sister calm down first, when the Japanese Palace sees Concubine Yi tomorrow, she must question her face to face and ask her to apologize to you."

Just to apologize?

Concubine Li thought and thought, she thought that after such a fuss today, it is impossible to discuss with the queen how to deal with Concubine Yi, it is better to wait for tomorrow.She didn't believe that with Concubine Yi's arrogance today, she would succumb to the queen tomorrow. It would be good for the queen to see it with her own eyes. If the queen also suffered, she didn't believe that the queen would bear it.

Wiping away her tears, Concubine Li stood up and retreated to Lingyue Palace.

On the second day, Fengyi Palace ushered in those who had invited early as usual.

When both Chu Xue and Concubine Li were seated, Xu Jinhe picked up the teacup and asked, seemingly unintentionally, "I heard that you two had some trouble yesterday afternoon. You are both sisters in the harem, and they serve the emperor together. Why do you have to do this?" Seriously, don’t you think so, Concubine Yi?”

Xu Jinhe looked fixedly at Chu Xue.

Chu Xue chuckled, but after the laugh, she suppressed her smile and said coldly: "Your Majesty's words are wrong. As the saying goes, the state-owned state-law family has family rules, and the harem is the first in the world, so naturally it should be more disciplined. Concubine Li It’s okay to come from a foreign country and not understand the rules of the palace, but the maid beside her is not a newcomer, so how can it be justified if she doesn’t remind the master of the etiquette? If the concubine doesn’t let her remember this time, if the next collision is You, what should I do?"

Xu Jinhe's face was ugly, but Chu Xue went further and said: "Besides, the concubine learned this from the empress. I remember that in Yanzhou in the past, the empress did not teach the concubine Yan Ling like this? If not the concubine The concubine was punished for her, and she still doesn't know where she is now?"

At the end of the conversation, Chu Xue added another sentence, "But having said that, I wonder if the Queen Mother still remembers that Li Nanny? After a few years, I don't know how she is now, but is she still alive?"

"Concubine Yi!"

Finally, Xu Jinhe couldn't bear it anymore and roared angrily.

It's fine if she doesn't mention the past, but when she mentions it, all the new and old hatreds rush to her heart in an instant. How much debt does this woman owe her?How dare she provoke herself so arrogantly now?Just because she has another child in her womb?

But who would have thought that Chu Xue didn't intend to buy her account, Chu Xue coughed lightly, put down the teacup in her hand, got up and said, "Le'er was crying all the time when the concubine came out, it's not early, the concubine should also Go back and have a look, Le'er is the heart of the Emperor and the Empress Dowager, and the concubines dare not ask her to make any mistakes."

After saying this and saluting, Chu Xue went straight out of Fengyi Palace, ignoring the surprised or angry woman behind her.
