Traveling through the harem: the favorite concubine

Chapter 59

Chen Yuanxiang was supported by people from Liu Gong, and sat in the East Palace returned by the cloth chariot.

Liu Gongren was very distressed, but he didn't dare to mention the matter just now.Chen Yuanxiang was extremely calm at this time, she smiled and patted Liu Gongren's hand, and said, "Nurse, I'm fine."

It's really all right, she thought she was going to lose her life just now, compared to the ending she expected, it's already much better, not only did she save her life, but as long as she listens to the emperor's words peacefully in the future, she still has a chance Sit on the concubine.

She sat in the cloth chariot and secretly adjusted her makeup, her makeup and hair could be adjusted, but the bruise on her forehead was impossible to fade away after a while.

She could only cover her forehead with a handkerchief.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the cloth chariot was carried into the gate of the East Palace, she heard a voice of greetings from outside the cloth chariot.

"My sister greets the princess and sister."

She recognized that it was the voices of Ye Liangdi and Mu Liangdi, and couldn't help but secretly sighed that it was bad luck.Although the cloth chariot was separated by a layer of cloth curtains, people outside could not see what was going on inside her, but she subconsciously covered her forehead with a veil cautiously.

"Sisters, please be free!"

Sitting in the sedan chair, Chen Yuanxiang called out, but didn't have the slightest intention of going out.

Ye Liangdi and Mu Liangdi stood up gracefully, with a strange look on their faces, Ye Liangdi even cursed in her heart: What's wrong with Chen Yuanxiang?If this was the case in the past, she would definitely get out of the sedan chair and walk up and down with them, letting them follow behind her like a little maid, so as to show her honor and kindness.

Could it be that something has happened in the past few days?

Ye Liangdi guessed maliciously that since the crown prince became the emperor, although they didn't go out often, she had heard a lot about Chen Yuanxiang jumping up and down in the palace and making trouble with the emperor!Not long ago, the emperor sent guards to surround her bedroom and ground her.

When Ye Liangdi thought of this, she couldn't help being contemptuous and mocking.

Her intuition told Ye Liangdi that the Crown Princess probably had some jokes to watch at the moment, she covered her hand with a light smile and said, "Sister Crown Princess, this beautiful spring day, why don't you come down and walk with your sisters!"

Mu Liangdi glanced at Ye Liangdi, she didn't understand Ye Liangdi's sudden enthusiasm, but when she saw what she said, she also raised her head and said with a smile: "Yes, sister of the Crown Princess, although the East Palace Garden is not as good as the Royal Garden Garden, but now it is full of flowers, come down and walk!"

Chen Yuanxiang, who was sitting in the sedan chair, heard the two people outside the cloth chariot singing together, almost gritted his teeth with hatred, but still said in a gentle voice: "The ground moved not long ago, I'm afraid it won't be too good outside! "

After saying this, without waiting for Ye Liangdi and Mu Liangdi to speak, he hurriedly said: "I just came back from Ci'an Palace, I'm a little tired, I want to go back and rest!"

After finishing speaking, he told the people below: "Go back to the bedroom!"

"Hey, sister of the crown princess, when I come back from this sickness, I should take a good walk to see this pleasing beauty, so that I can get rid of fatigue!"

Hearing what Chen Yuanxiang said, Ye Liangdi felt more and more ghostly in her heart, and a smile appeared on her beautiful face, and she simply took two steps forward and stood in front of the cloth chariot.

"Ye Liangdi, Ben Gong said that I am very tired and want to go back to rest! What do you mean by blocking the sedan chair?"

Chen Yuanxiang also got angry, sat upright, and questioned him aloud.

Chen Yuanxiang originally wanted to calm things down, after all, she had already lost the chance to win the post, and she would no longer be a crown princess who could put on a haughty face in front of these women.

However, at this moment, Ye Liangdi's actions made her feel ashamed.

She is still the former crown princess, the emperor's first wife!

Ye Liangdi also knew that her actions were a bit inappropriate, while Mu Liangdi who was standing by looked at her with surprise.But she didn't panic either, she just stuck out her tongue mischievously, and smiled at Chen Yuanxiang in the sedan chair, "Don't be angry, my sister is just playing with you, sister Since you want to rest, then my sister won't hold back any more!"

Chen Yuanxiang held her breath in her chest, feeling that she couldn't go up and down. If it was the past, she would have seized this mistake and punished Ye Liangdi, but at this time she was deeply suppressed, and just said coldly Said: "Sister Ye is so old, she still wants to have fun! Play by the rules."

After all, he ordered the people below to quickly carry the cloth chariot and leave here.

Ye Liangdi was reprimanded, but the smile on her face became brighter, and she only looked away after watching the group of people leave.Turning around and seeing Mu Liangdi looking at her in bewilderment, her heart sank, she rubbed her face and asked with a smile: "Why is Sister Mu looking at me like this? Is there something wrong with my face?"

Mu Liangdi shook her head, looked away, and said with a smile: "There is nothing wrong with my sister, she is still as beautiful as a flower. My sister is just surprised, why did my sister stop the carriage of the princess and sister, and..."

And he was so happy to be reprimanded.

Ye Liangdi glanced at Mu Liangdi, but felt an inexplicable sense of contempt and superiority in her heart.

"It's useless to talk to Sister Mu. Sister Mu can continue to visit the garden by herself. Sister, I'm tired and want to go back and rest!"

Mu Liangdi blinked her eyes, being ridiculed by Ye Liangdi, she still had her usual smile on her face, and said with a serious smile: "Since sister is tired, go back and have a good rest, my sister wants to go shopping again."

Ye Liangdi raised her brows lightly, just smiled, supported the hand of the palace maid next to her, walked to the path, and walked slowly back to her Xiangheng Courtyard.

There was always a chuckle on her face: the emperor is probably angry with Chen Yuanxiang again!
She knew a long time ago that Chen Yuanxiang would lose her position as queen sooner or later with such a toss!

At this moment, even if Chen Yuanxiang still had hope of becoming a queen, she would not let her be.If Chen Yuanxiang can't be the queen, who else is more qualified than the woman in the prince's backyard.

Ye Liangdi walked to the gate of Xiangheng Courtyard, but suddenly stopped, and whispered to the maid next to her: "You find a way to deliver letters outside the palace, and tell my father, now it's about whether I can be a queen or not. During the critical period, please don't let me lose the chain outside the palace."

"Master Hou understands." The maid beside her said softly, "Even though Lord Hou did not contribute much to the emperor's ascension to the throne, Lord Hou was the first batch of ministers to support the emperor. I believe the emperor will never forget it."

"I hope!" Ye Liangdi didn't have much confidence in this.

What she is confident about is the evidence in her hand and her family background.

Thinking of this, Ye Liangdi couldn't help but feel a little depressed. Although her father is a prince of Dingguo, he sounds high and powerful, but he is actually an incompetent person. The title was inherited from his ancestors, and the job he is doing now is her grandmother's request from the Supreme Emperor. Yes, if it wasn't for the fact that my grandmother was still alive and had some connection with the royal family, her family would probably be similar to other declining princely families in Beijing.

If her grandfather was still alive, and her father was as capable as Chen Yuanxiang's father, why would she spend so much time planning for herself.

Chen Yuanxiang, who has no talent and no good looks, was able to overwhelm her to become the crown princess, which was really too much for her to swallow.

But, it's all right now, Chen Yuanxiang dared to drug the woman in the backyard at his own risk, this is the heir of the royal family, as long as the emperor knows, she will be thrown into limbo if she doesn't die.

Ye Liangdi thought about it slowly, a smug smile appeared on her face.She went back to the house, sat in front of the dressing table, and shouted at the palace man: "Get dressed up for me, I'm going to see the emperor!"

"Liangdi is going now?"

The personal servants asked each other strangely.

It's almost time for dinner, Ye Liangdi is going to see the emperor now?
Ye Liangdi looked straight at the beautiful face that appeared in the mirror, and a faint color appeared on her face: "I should go now."

The crown prince has been the emperor for some time, but he has never summoned any women in the East Palace, perhaps because he is busy with court affairs, but this time she went here, not only to sue, but also to take this opportunity to gain the emperor's sympathy, And win favor.At that time, her queen position will be more secure.

Even better at dinner time, after talking with the emperor, I happened to stay in Zhaoyang Hall for dinner, so it was logical to stay in Zhaoyang Hall...

Ye Liangdi picked up the lip balm, dipped it with her little finger, and applied a thin layer on her lips, her rosy and plump lips seemed to exude a seductive fragrance.

"Ye Liangdi wants to see you?"

Zhao Qingze had just received the courtiers and was about to return to the apse when he heard Deng enter the room to ask for an audience.

He didn't ponder and just said: "Let her go back."

"Yes."

Deng Xian didn't say much, although Ye Liangdi stuffed him with a lot of banknotes and kept emphasizing with him that he had something important to report to the emperor, but he felt that coming here dressed like that was probably just to invite favor.

Since the emperor didn't want to see him, he sent him off.

Deng Xian just took two steps back when he suddenly heard Zhao Qingze say again: "Let her in!"

Deng Xian was stunned for a moment, but he still agreed to retreat.

Ye Liangdi followed Deng Xian all the way into the imperial study room slowly, she didn't look at it, her face was heavy, but the red tan palace clothes on her body and the delicate makeup on her face gave her a layer of glamorous brilliance.

Almost as soon as Ye Liangdi came in, Zhao Qingze saw her white and tender skin before opening her neckline slightly.

Even though women's clothing is not restricted in this dynasty, it is not open. At least Ye Liangdi's clothes are considered bold.

"Shu Rong pays homage to the emperor!"

Ye Liangdi bowed to salute, while Zhao Qingze sat behind the table and cried out in a faint tone.

Ye Liangdi stood up with her head slightly lowered, with a charming and pitiful expression.

"Deng first said that you have something important to tell me, what is it?"

Zhao Qingze asked.

When Ye Liangdi heard this, she couldn't help feeling a little disappointed in her heart. She and the emperor hadn't seen each other for so long, shouldn't the emperor say a few more words of thought to her?How could you go straight to the point and ask her something.

But she was also very clear about the priorities, at least at this time, the most important thing was to bring down Chen Yuanxiang first.

Thinking of this, she blinked her eyes, raised her head, with a faint light of water in her eyes, and a very pitiful expression on her face.

"Your Majesty, Shu Rong didn't want to tell the Emperor about this, but...but the princess concubine's sister has gone too far!"

Zhao Qingze lowered his eyelids, his face remained unchanged, and his tone was still calm: "What did she do?"

"Elder sister of the Crown Princess, actually put child-preventing medicine in the tea distributed to Shu Rong and other younger sisters. No wonder... No wonder there has been no good news from the East Palace for so long. Shu Rong really feels sorry for Your Majesty!"

Hearing the words, Zhao Qingze couldn't help but look at Ye Liangdi a few times, and there was something strange in his eyes.

"emperor……"

Ye Liangdi didn't hear Zhao Qingze's voice, she couldn't help feeling a little uneasy in her heart, and called out hesitantly.

"How did you find out about this? Why haven't you talked about it?"

Zhao Qingze finally asked, and Ye Liangdi straightened her waist, and sadly said the answer she had prepared in her heart: "Shu Rong only found out a year ago that Shu Rong has been in poor health, Your Majesty Yes, I know. Shu Rong’s grandmother begged for grace from the Supreme Emperor and sent Shu Rong a court lady with medical skills, but the court lady said that Shu Rong had been given anti-child medicine, and if she continued to take it, Shu Rong might I couldn't conceive the emperor's heir for the rest of my life, but fortunately that court lady has excellent medical skills, and she finally took care of Shurong's body in this year's time!"

She raised her head with a weeping expression.

Zhao Qingze lowered his eyelids.I just heard her continue: "Shurong didn't dare to say anything at first, because she was afraid of misunderstanding the sister of the princess, so she secretly checked, and it turned out that the sister of the princess really did it. At that time, the emperor was not in the palace. I was so scared, I didn't dare to speak nonsense, I kept it in my heart. It's all right now, your majesty is finally back, and Shu Rong can speak out about this matter!"

Hearing Ye Liangdi's soft voice that seemed to be dripping water, Zhao Qingze couldn't help feeling agitated. He was about to say to Ye Liangdi that you made a mistake in this matter and wanted to send her away.Suddenly a thought flashed through my mind.

A gentle expression appeared on his face, and he said softly: "Are you wronged about this?"

Ye Liangdi hastily wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, and said, "Shu Rong...is not wronged at all by the emperor's words."

"I will find out about this matter, so don't say anything."

Zhao Qingze stood up, and said again: "If Yuan Xiang really committed this crime, I will definitely make her apologize to you. However, I have been married to her for many years, you should take it for my sake, don't let this Spread the word."

This is... the meaning of no punishment!
Apologize!What's the use of her apologizing!

Ye Liangdi was a little taken aback, her fingers tightly clenched the handkerchief.Husband and wife, is a first wife really that important to a man?Even such a mistake can be easily let go, or...the emperor has feelings for Chen Yuanxiang!
