The Biography of Concubine Wen Xi in Qing Palace

Chapter 334 Broken Sedan
Two days later and one night, the Empress Dowager Renxian chatted with the Empress Dowager for a long time in the Palace of Compassion, recalling the past when she was in her mother's family, and the past suddenly came to her mind.

On the way back to the palace, Qingzhu waited for Empress Dowager Renxian to get into the sedan chair, but she was full of disappointment, and sighed: "Now when Aijia sees that girl Qi Muge, he thinks of himself in the past. I have been struggling since the age of Shui Ling, But after all, it was the first emperor who left early, and the Ai family stayed in this world alone. What about the emperor? He is healthy and alive, but he wants his nobles to be widowed!"

Qingzhu's complexion changed, she lightly tapped the sedan chair a few times, and said in a low voice: "Queen Mother, there are some things we can't say."

The Empress Dowager Renxian snorted lightly, and said meaninglessly: "Others can't tell, the Ai family can't control that much. The left and right emperors are not at peace with the Ai family, why should the Ai family still worry about his thoughts?"

Qingzhu sighed helplessly, seeing that the road was slippery, she ordered the supervisor in the sedan chair to slow down, took out a piece of emerald jade from her sleeve, lifted the curtain of the sedan chair and handed it to Empress Dowager Renxian: "Empress Dowager, there is one more thing."

Empress Dowager Renxian held the emerald jade in her hands, the emerald jade was round in shape, as if the jade body was soaked in water, moist and refined.

It is the top-quality Dongling Cui, with dark green eyes, and what's even more surprising is that there is no trace of carving, but it is full of aura.

"This thing..." Empress Dowager Renxian was worried, and stopped talking: "Is it gone?"

Qingzhu nodded and said: "What happened last night, the imperial concubine showed kindness and moved Mrs. Chen out of the Xinzhe library and arranged to be on duty at the flowers and plants. People walk at night, very peaceful."

"It's cheaper for her." Empress Dowager Renxian clenched the green jade in her hand, and said with emotion: "If she hadn't hated her sister for killing her unborn baby, how could she add poison to the food sent by Ai's family and kill her sister? He Gong felt that the Ai family was responsible for that matter, perhaps the empress and the emperor also thought the same, but felt that the Ai family was extremely ruthless."

"She had an affair with the guards, and the womb was secretly knotted. It was because the Empress Dowager Cihe kindly spared her life, but she didn't want people to be so ignorant. The Empress Dowager Cihe died, and the Empress Dowager left her life to wait for her to be found in the future. I took the opportunity to pry the truth out of her mouth to clear my innocence. However, the poor servant girl is tight-lipped, and she still refuses to open her mouth after receiving so much talk."

"The execution of her lover was the order of Ai's family. In fact, if my sister didn't stop her, even she should be hanged together." The more Empress Dowager Renxian thought about it, the more resentful she felt in her heart. Wanting to grab it to pieces: "This wall of jade was given to her by my sister in the past. It's a shameless thing to wear every day, and it's disgusting to look at."

After saying that, she handed the emerald jade back to Qingzhu's hands: "On the [-]th day of February next year, I will give it to her together. By now, all the palace servants serving her are dead."

Qing Zhu nodded, slowly lowered the car curtain, and carefully tucked the corners, for fear that the cold wind would blow up and chill the master.

"Queen, Mrs. Chen committed suicide."

"Suicide?" Empress Dowager Renxian was full of doubts, and probed her voice: "The Ai family has tortured her with those trivial methods for so many years and I haven't seen her commit suicide. How can the noble concubine agree with her, and she wants to die?"

After saying this halfway, suddenly there was a clear and crisp sound of wood snapping in front of the sedan chair, Qingzhu was startled, seeing that it was the inner prison carrying the sedan chair forward, a section of the shoulder pole was formed, the sedan chair tilted forward heavily and smashed to the ground.

The sound of the shock was deafening, echoing in the long street for a long time.

Inside the sedan chair, the Empress Dowager Renxian screamed in shock, Qingzhu also panicked, and hurriedly opened the sedan chair door to protect her.

The man's face was pale, and he held his chest with one hand and couldn't stop panting heavily.

"Is the Queen Mother okay?" Qingzhu asked with lingering fear, then turned her head and scolded: "Stupid thing! Is life too long?"

The four inner prison guards who carried the sedan chair were so frightened that their souls were half flying, and they smashed their knees into the thick snow and kowtowed for forgiveness.

The man with the broken shoulder glanced at the broken mark, and Nuonuo replied: "Auntie, the shoulder pole was afraid that it couldn't stand the snow, and the wood became too hard to bear the weight, so I broke it, slave."

"Do you still dare to argue?" Qingzhu stepped forward in two steps, and slapped the inner prisoner on the face forcefully: "Fortunately, the Queen Mother is fine, otherwise you and your family will die!"

The Empress Dowager Renxian calmed down, and slowly got off the sedan chair with her hand stroking the green bamboo: "Forget it, the left and right are not far from the Palace of Mercy and Benevolence, so you can accompany Ai's family for a walk."

Qingzhu Nuo responded, and walked carefully in the snow with the help of Empress Dowager Renxian. The eunuchs behind him were still kneeling. , get up."

The four of them had the attitude of the rest of their lives after a catastrophe. They were happy and thanked En and stood up. The absurdity had not yet froze on their faces, but they heard the Empress Dowager Renxian say again: "Each go to the Punishment Department to receive fifty boards and a monthly salary. After half a year, I will go to Xinzheku to serve."

The two master and servant almost left in response to the desolate pleas of the eunuchs for forgiveness. They walked a little further away and could not hear any movement, so Qing Zhu said: "Is the queen mother all right, did you bump into it just now?"

Empress Dowager Renxian smiled gently, pressed her hand, shook her head and said, "It's nothing."

Only then did Qingzhu heave a sigh of relief, and then said with a little compassion: "Queen Mother, in fact, I can't blame them for that matter just now, such a punishment is a bit severe."

"Heavy?" Empress Dowager Renxian smiled contemptuously: "After what happened with Mrs. Chen, all the palace servants in the He Palace, except you, are nothing more than worthless sluts in the eyes of the Ai family. I have been shameless all my life, which is unforgivable. That's why the Ai family hates Lan Xu so much. She was originally a maidservant next to Concubine Wan. After becoming a concubine, her low nature will be revealed. It's good for people to beat."

Hearing these words, Qingzhu felt a little uncomfortable, so she stopped talking and stopped consoling, and only walked slowly with the Empress Dowager Renxian.

The rustling of footsteps falling into the snow made my ears especially awake at night.

Walking to the lotus pond, seeing a thin layer of ice on the water, he couldn't help sighing: "This year, it is very cold. This lotus pond was originally the warmest place in the palace except the Qianqing Palace. Now look, It's frozen."

While chatting, there was a movement in the bushes behind him, which sounded like a man's rapid breathing.

Empress Dowager Renxian heard it calmly, she blushed instantly with embarrassment, and pointed angrily at the grass hidden in the pitch black: "Bold! Qingzhu, go and take him down!"

The sound was very similar to the joyful voices of men and women, Qingzhu was also embarrassed, and ran towards the grass.

But when she brushed the bushes, no one was seen, and the voice stopped abruptly as she approached.

Just wondering, Empress Dowager Renxian's shrill cry came from behind.

When the sound fell, there was another loud 'plop', causing her to turn around hastily.

But the scene in front of her made her dumbfounded!
Just as she was watching, Empress Dowager Renxian fell into the pool, thrashing and shouting loudly, but because she was not familiar with water, she was choked by the cold lake water between sinking and floating, coughing again and again.

"Queen! Come on! The queen has fallen into the water!!"
