The Biography of Concubine Wen Xi in Qing Palace

Chapter 361 Rong Sheng
The morning of the second day was the day when Yin Ti resumed class.

There is a new funeral in the palace, not to mention the delay in the affairs of the previous court, and the officials are crying every day, and it is today that they have returned to the past.

On the way Rong Yue sent Yinti to the Shang's study, she saw that the palace servants were calm and busy with their work in an orderly manner, with a flat expression on their faces, showing no joy or sorrow.

Recalling the days when Yide died, everyone shed tears, and even the courtiers cried and passed out in grief.

The only way is that everyone is like the actor in the Shengping Department, crying whenever he says.

Just cry, that's all.

After returning to the palace, Rong Yue calmed down the sad expression she had maintained all the way.

Seeing that she was very tired, Lian Xin ordered the clever maid to come forward and take care of her by rubbing her shoulders and legs.He chose a new cup of tea and brought it up, respectfully said: "Empress Daxing passed away, and my mother is tired of dealing with the affairs of the six palaces. Today, elder brother enters the Shang's study room, which can be regarded as a half-day leisure for Fusheng, and my mother took this calming tea, Let's take a rest."

Rong Yuesong said happily with her neck glowing: "Don't rest, I heard Wan'er woke up, we have to go and see her."

Lian Xin's expression changed suddenly, she lowered her voice and said: "Niang Niang, something happened in front of the imperial court."

Rong Yue waved his hands and ordered all the servants to go down, leaving only Lian Xin by his side.

She took the teacup and took a sip slowly, only to feel that the fragrance of the tea was clean and exhausted, and then she asked: "What's the matter?"

"Arjun, the maid of honor next to Empress Daxing, was killed by a head-on collision in the Qianqing Palace."

Rong Yue was stunned for a moment, and the water in the teacup was about to spill out: "How could it be so bad for her to die and run to the front of the imperial court?"

Lian Xin frowned and said: "The people in front of the imperial court are the tightest people, and they can't find anything. But it's good to die, so we don't have to worry about it."

Rong Yue said: "That's right, she is so close to the Empress, it's not clear what the Empress will mention to her."

Lian Xin calmly took the teacup from Rong Yue's hands, and said with a smile: "Actually, if it wasn't for Queen Daxing's fate, how could I live this month longer?"

Rong Yue said with an 'hmm': "At the night banquet in the palace that day, she was exhausted. However, Concubine Xin who ran out of nowhere to do something bad, became her scapegoat for nothing."

Lian Xin pondered and said: "No matter what she thinks, she can't imagine that the poison is attached to the cup. The empress hides the poison in the armor, and when the wine is over for three rounds and the queen toasts, she puts the poison on the cup. Smear it on the outer edge of your own cup, and then clink glasses with her to drink happily. When the cups are touched, the poison on the empress's cup is naturally contaminated on the queen's cup. People drink erratically. It is also common for the wine to overflow. At that time, the poison on the cup will be diluted by the overflowing wine, and slowly flow down the wine stains into the queen's cup. With such a weight, she would definitely die."

The corners of Rong Yue's lips raised slightly: "Even if she doesn't drink that wine, so what? Concubine Xin died, and she drank the new wine that the Emperor added to her table, so she would naturally draw her suspicions to the Emperor. Desperate, after going through this matter again, how can she give up with her temper?"

Lian Xin was full of approval, she nodded her head and said: "Your Majesty only needs to provoke a few words at the right time, and then she becomes confused and believes that the matter was done by the Emperor, and she is willing to stop only after taking her life, which makes her completely desperate for the Emperor."

This kind of planning and calculation is watertight and impeccable, which is amazing.

Compared with the concubines and concubines who harbored evil intentions in the past, Rong Yue's round is called winning beauty.

"Actually, she didn't have to die at all. If she was willing to believe in me half as much as Wan'er, I would definitely not be so ruthless." Rong Yue thought for a moment, shook her head again and again, and sighed infinitely: "Tell her about the finger-pull." , I thought she would be too busy with Shenshang to take care of me. But I didn't want to end up in such a pitiful situation. I was still thinking about how to check and balance me all day long? How could those things reach the ears of the emperor? In order to protect myself , she can only die."

Lian Xin leaned down and kneaded Rong Yue's calf: "Your Majesty, now that the Empress is dead, our good days are coming."

Rong Yue fiddled with the silk lace on the armor with a half-smile, and whispered: "I used to think of nothing when I was a concubine, but after I became a concubine, I thought about the successor. Here it is. Now that I can go further, it is naturally the best. I am not Yide, and I will never be tempted by the emperor. After all these things, I have fully understood. Only Zhenzhen'er has the right Holding it in your hands, you can gain a foothold in the harem, and you can sit back and relax. What kind of love is nothing but vain, you see those concubines who really love the emperor, which one got good fruit?"

She took another sip of tea, turned her face to Lian Xin and raised her eyebrows: "Wan'er is considered the best among many concubines, but do you see how happy she is? If she knows all these reasons, on the one hand, she will be kind to herself." The eldest sister, on the one hand, is a husband who loves her very much, and the two are in a dilemma, guess what will happen to her?"

Lian Xin smiled and said: "Then we must let her know quickly."

"No need." Rong Yue shook her head, sat upright and looked out the window: "Let's end this matter here. She watched the queen hang herself to death, after all, she is willing to tolerate me, protect me, and Be good to Bengong. In Hegong, she is the only one who has sincere feelings towards Bengong, and Bengong doesn't want to lose Jin Lan, her."

Lian Xin said: "The empress is kind, it is her blessing to have the empress treat each other like this."

After lunch that day, Rong Yue and Lian Xin entered the Changchun Palace. When they came, Lin Lan was guarding in front of Wan Lai's bed, chatting with her constantly to relieve boredom, thinking of ways to make her happy.

Seeing Rong Yue, Lin Lan respectfully invited An Fuli, and Wan Yu was about to get off the bed, but Rong Yue held her down: "Why are you being so polite, sisters? Are you feeling better?"

Wan Yu's face was pale, and she forced a smile and said: "No matter how bad it is, life must go on."

Rong Yue stared at Lin Lan and asked, "Has the Emperor been here?"

Lin Lan couldn't hold her breath for a while, and said in a breathless voice: "The Emperor knew about my sister's wake-up, and I will see her again in the future, and now I have entered the Hall of Martial Arts again."

Rong Yue sighed, and held Wan Lai's hand: "Don't take this matter to heart, the emperor values ​​the empress, and also values ​​you. After all, you two have the same mother, so I'm afraid it's more timid because of the closeness to the country."

"Aqiong said that the eldest sister had a big dispute with the emperor on the last night of her life." Wanyu said softly, "I'm always afraid that the emperor might be so violent that he had an argument with the elder sister. Elder sister I was depressed for a while and felt depressed, so I did something stupid."

Hearing what Wanyan said, Rong Yue was stunned for a moment, then asked: "Ah Qiong, what else can you say?"

Seeing Wanyu lowering her eyebrows and shaking her head, Rong Yue changed her expression, and said sadly: "Even if there is a rift, the empress is not like this. There are many things in it, we can't figure it out here This is why I came here. If you don’t choose a day to meet the emperor, you can ask yourself.”

Wan Lai sighed slightly, and said sadly: "I want to ask, but I'm afraid to ask."
