The Biography of Concubine Wen Xi in Qing Palace

Chapter 231 Bo Luohui ([-])
Yun Chan changed Wan Lai's new clothes with swift movements. During this period, Lin Lan looked dull and drank a few cups of green tea to calm down.

In autumn, the clear and bright sunlight shines through the dark-patterned crimson diamond windows, casting a piece of golden warm light with diamond-shaped lattice shadows, covering the cold floor tiles of the dormitory silently.

After changing and washing, Wan Yu called Lin Lan, "Did someone else get the birth control medicine?"

"Not yet." Lin Lan frowned and pondered, her voice gradually became weaker: "When the medicine is decocted, the servants will stand by the side of the medicine urn, and when they are tired of seeing the fire, they will ask Xiangqing to replace it, and there is no one else. .”

"Xiangqing?" Wanyan's armor lightly scratched on the dressing table, making a 'hissing' sound from time to time, which made people's backs itch.

Xiangqing died suddenly, could it be related to this matter?

After Yun Shan's incident, apart from the servants who served close to her, Wan Yu didn't often get close to the palace servants sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

After all, people don't follow themselves closely, and their backgrounds are also unpredictable. Maybe there will be someone who puts eyeliner by his side like Queen Renxiao in the past.

Her back was secretly frightened, she cast cold eyes on Shuangruo and asked, "Is Xiangqing settled properly?"

Shuang Ruo nodded and said: "Li Yin had moved her out of the palace for burial according to her mother's order, and rewarded her family even more generously."

Wanyu's heart sank, secretly thinking that something is wrong.

The person behind the scheme seemed to have figured out her thoughts, and bribed Xiangqing to poison Rongyue's fertility potion, and then used some method behind her back to kill Xiangqing, and her servant in the palace died suddenly, Wan Yu Will be kind.

However, in the eyes of others, such a benevolent master-servant friendship now looks more like Wanyu deliberately arranged for Xiangqing to poison her, and then secretly executed her, and treated her family generously so that she could feel better.

Such a meticulous arrangement is determined to trap himself in injustice.

She got up and took Lin Lan's hand, and whispered in her ear: "We are afraid that we have been plotted by someone. When we see the emperor later, you can follow the tone of what I say, and you must not mess it up." It's a square inch, do you understand?"

When the two entered Qianqing Palace to meet the emperor, the emperor was sitting on the main seat in the side hall.

The gold-plated fan stands on the screen, and the dragon guards the nine-day tent. On the table, the misty smoke of ambergris burning in the Boshan furnace rises slowly, wrapping around the violets offered in the sapphire flower vase, spreading along the thick petals. To the rhizome, winding into a looming gurgling stream.

At that time, the court judged that Fu Zhuozheng was kneeling in the front seat, and Empress Dowager Renxian and Concubine Yi sat on the left and right respectively.

The emperor was caressing a piece of cold and warm white marble in his hand. Seeing that Wannai was coming, he only slightly raised his tired eyelids, and said in a hoarse voice: "Last night, I worked half the night, and I am a healthy person, so I don't know how to rest properly." , what are you doing here?"

Wannai and Linlan knelt down together, and greeted the three seated people: "Concubine to the emperor, queen mother, and concubine Yi, please greet me." She bowed politely, but she heard the Queen Mother Renxian scoffing in her ears. With a sound, he said leisurely: "The emperor spared you the courtesy, but now you insist on giving the courtesy, but you feel ashamed in your heart?"

Wan Lai lowered her head a little deeper, but her brows formed into a simple.Originally thought that the emperor was the only one in Qianqing Palace, so there was still some room for him to explain himself, but now that Empress Dowager Renxian is here, this matter may be difficult.

Although Empress Dowager Renxian is not the emperor's biological mother, the emperor has raised her by her side since she was a child, and her relationship with the emperor is not shallow.

And because she was always overshadowed by Emperor Shunzhi's favored concubine Dong E when she was a queen in the previous dynasty, she has always been at odds with the emperor's favor on concubines.

Now Hegong only himself is the most favored by the emperor, so naturally he has aroused the eyes of Empress Dowager Renxian.

Wanyu couldn't help feeling jealous, and said in a soft tone: "The Empress Dowager knows the lesson, the emperor loves her, and concubines must not lose their sense of proportion."

Empress Dowager Renxian sighed softly like the slight wind: "You still know the word "propriety" in your heart, it's really amazing!"

Concubine Yi got up and gave Wanyu a hand: "Get up and answer, you can kneel, but the child in your belly cannot."

The Empress Dowager Renxian wanted to make trouble, but at this moment, she heard that the emperor deliberately coughed twice and cleared her throat, so she fell silent.Only when Concubine Yi and Wanyu were both seated did she take a look at Lin Lan who was serving beside Wanyu and said without hesitation, "It's just that Concubine Wan is pregnant, who ordered you slave to get up?"

Lin Lan was startled, and hurriedly knelt down and replied, "Go back to the Queen Mother, slave."

"The Ai family has no time to listen to your reading." The Empress Dowager Renxian interrupted Lin Lan, then glanced at the emperor and said in a whisper: "Emperor, Fu Zhuo's words have been made very clear just now, and now the sinner has come to the door by himself. Come on, how do you deal with this matter?"

The emperor put the white marble in his hands on the case, and there was a sense of protection in his words: "Does Wan'er know about this?"

Wan Lai said in a deep voice: "Master Fu Zhuo has fully reported that the poison Rong Yue suffered from was caused by the anti-fetal medicine sent to her palace by the concubine every day."

"Is the soup made by your servants in the palace?" The emperor looked at Linlan leisurely: "Is that her?"

Wannai said: "Lin Lan was ordered by my concubine, but she definitely would not have done this. She has no grievances with Rong Yue, so why do you want to kill her?"

Empress Dowager Renxian sneered, fiddled with the tea cup at hand and said slowly: "She has no enmity with Concubine Xian, what about you?"

"Of course not." With some confidence between her brows, Wan Lai said to the emperor, "Concubine and Rong Yue have always been the best sisters in the palace, what reason does concubine want to harm her?"

"Of course you have." The Empress Dowager Renxian suddenly slammed the case, and the loud noise made Wanyu shiver.

She stared at Wanyu with narrowed eyes, and said with three points of ridicule and seven points of anger: "The post is vacant, and there are many people with wrong thoughts. You are the emperor's favorite concubine, and now you are pregnant with dragon descendants. Let the jackdaws fly up to the branches."

She looked slowly at Concubine Yi, and said again: "No matter how bad it is, there is still a distinguished elder sister standing in front of you, and she went to Concubine Xian. This latter position is not justifiably in the pocket of your sister Niuhulu." The thing in it?"

Wanyu's pupils tightened suddenly, she clenched her hands into fists while leaning on the handle of the chair, and replied almost word by word: "Queen Mother, concubines don't have that kind of thoughts, and the same is true of Concubine Yi."

Concubine Yi also said: "The concubines and concubines only want to stabilize the harem for the emperor so that the emperor will be less worried, and they have never coveted the empress position in their hearts, and I hope the empress dowager will learn from them."

Empress Dowager Renxian's words were too decisive and aggressive, even the emperor beside him couldn't stand it and interjected: "Emperor Niang's words are serious. The concubine Rong Yue was recommended by Concubine Yi and Concubine Wan that day. If the two of her minds are not pure, why do you want to do this?" He gave Empress Dowager Renxian a cold look, and said slightly discordantly: "Even the other nobles you and the emperor's grandmother chose to enter the palace often get close to Concubine Yi. Could it be that Queen Mother doesn't even believe in the concubine she chose?"
