The Biography of Concubine Wen Xi in Qing Palace

Chapter 459 Spiritual Affairs ([-])

This water and land ritual was held in Baohua Hall day and night, and it didn't finish until the third day.

It was thought that something would happen in Changchun Palace again, but to Rong's surprise, after the ritual was over, Wanlao's illness was completely cured.

Although she knew that Wannai was pretending to be sick, she recovered after the ceremony was over, so she lost the bargaining chip to check and balance herself, why is this?

That night, the emperor was overjoyed to see that Wanyu had recovered from his illness, so he passed it on to serve him in bed.

In the middle of the night, it was Wannai who was carried back to Changchun Palace by Luanming Cheng'en sedan chair.

How has she encountered the thing of not being allowed to stay overnight since she served the bed?
Rong Yue felt something strange in her heart, so she sent several people to inquire about the news, but the people in front of the imperial court were the most popular, so naturally they couldn't find out.

Thinking in such a frightened way, it is considered to be benevolent and benevolent, after the Luanming Cheng'en sedan chair sent Wan Lai back to Changchun Palace, it stopped directly at the gate of Chengqian Palace.

Que Zhen happily came to tell the time, Rong Yue had already taken off her clothes and rested, hearing this, she was full of suspicion: "It's almost midnight? What is the emperor doing at this time?"

How can Quezhen know the will of the Son of Heaven?Rong Yue sighed and shook her head. After adding makeup and dressing properly, she followed the sedan chair into the Qianqing Palace.

When he came, the bedroom was brightly lit, and the emperor was sitting on the couch, looking at the floor tiles with a slightly dull gaze.

Rong Yue Fu greeted her, and after hearing the movement, the emperor raised his eyes to look at her, and beckoned to her to sit beside him: "The autumn night is cold, your body is most afraid of the cold, I want you to move to the Qianqing Palace right now , I have wronged you."

"Words from the emperor?" Rong Yue leaned on the emperor's shoulder with her forehead tilted, gently provoking his distinct jaw line with one hand: "It's just that the emperor turned over the brand name of Concubine Wan at night, since the concubine and concubine Wan entered the palace , you have never sent her back to the palace after attending bedtime. But what did Concubine Wan say wrongly, which made the emperor uncomfortable?"

The emperor shook his head dejectedly, grabbed Rong Yue's palm that was swaying on his cheek, and looked back at her: "I had already rested, but Wan'er had a nightmare and woke up covered in sweat. I wanted to Stay with her, but she was really scared when she talked about such a dream, so I had no choice but to order someone to send her back to the palace first, and sent you here."

Rong Yue frowned lightly, but soon relaxed, and said with an unnatural smile: "What kind of dream? Could it be related to my concubine?"

The emperor said: "Wan'er dreamed of Yide, saying that she saw blood in her seven orifices, her face was terrifying, she kept asking Wan'er, why didn't she protect her tablet, and let her go?" He paused and looked into Rong Yue's eyes. Gradually sharp: "Let the imperial concubine be accidentally destroyed, so that I have no place to stay."

Rong Yue was so startled that she moved to the edge of the couch and almost fell to the ground: "Your Majesty! The concubine said that it has nothing to do with the concubine. The tablet of Empress Xiaozhao fell to the ground by herself! The concubine and the concubine Xiaozhao No injustice, no enmity, why did you damage her tablet for no reason?"

The emperor silently nodded, and after a moment of silence, he persuaded: "Don't be afraid, I know that this matter has nothing to do with you. Besides, I always don't believe what ghosts and gods say. It's just that Wan'er is thinking about this matter now, even though she is retiring After burning, people are still restless day and night. I think that Empress Xiaozhao is the former empress. You did not enshrine the incense of Empress Xiaozhao in the Taimiao on that day. Now the tablet has been remade and is being enshrined in Kunning Palace. I think that if you kneel three times and kowtow nine times to Yide's memorial tablet in front of Wan'er, then the bewilderment in her heart will be relieved."

Such remarks made Rong Yue feel disgusted in her heart.

The emperor only mentioned that it was for the sake of tact, but left himself completely.

If you don't believe in ghosts and gods, you should comfort Wanyu to let go of her freedom.

The Buddha statue is weeping blood, compassionate and restless, the emperor must have believed and feared these things.

Now, because of the guilt towards Yide in his heart, he wants to push himself out to be an auspicious beast to ward off disasters and evil spirits, in exchange for him to sleep peacefully overnight.

The surrounding atmosphere was terrifyingly quiet, and even the breathing of the two of them looking at each other was particularly harsh at this time.

Rong Yue looked at the emperor with dismay: "Because of Concubine Wan's dream, the emperor asked his concubine to confess her sins to Empress Xiaozhao in Kunning Palace and kneel down in full view of everyone? So, wouldn't it be true that my concubine disrespected the old empress?" Talk? If the concubines kneel down, how will they face the concubines from the East and West Six Palaces in the future?"

The emperor was speechless for a while, and quickly said: "Where do you want the noble concubine to confess? The empress's position is precious, but now, the noble concubine is the model of the six palaces of this thing. It is a common thing to kneel down to worship the old empress's new tablet and welcome into the Taimiao." The noble concubine should not think too much."

Rong Yue's eyes widened, and the puzzlement and resentment in his eyes spread out: "The concubine is thinking a lot? The emperor summoned the concubine to the Qianqing Palace in the middle of the night, just to get the concubine to kneel down to worship the old empress. Concubine Wan's heart is decided." ?”

The emperor murmured: "The noble concubine and Wan'er have had a good friendship since they entered the palace. I think for Wan'er's sake. Is the noble concubine unwilling to do such a little effort? Or is it that you really dropped the tablet on the ground?" , Now I don’t dare to face Empress Xiaozhao? Although Waner’s words are convincing, I am willing to believe you because of my love for these years. She was protecting the tablet more than her own life, so how could the tablet fall to the ground for no reason? I don’t believe that she wronged you with Empress Xiaozhao.”

There were bursts of bitterness in Rong Yue's voice, and she suppressed her anger, and even for a moment, she wanted to point at the emperor's nose and yell.

But she finally held back.

Facing such a man whom he had given up on long ago, no matter how ridiculous things he said, he should no longer be shocked and despaired.

She still has something she wants, but she hasn't got it yet.

She can't turn against the emperor, and she can't let the emperor feel that she has the same staunch temperament as Yide.

Rong Yue lowered her head, swallowing the boundless grievance and shame in her belly.

She seemed to be extremely tired, but when she raised her head again, she was already smiling: "Is the emperor angry?"

Seeing her so capricious, the emperor was surprised for a moment, and then said: "Your concubine, you."

"Your Majesty~" Rong Yue called out tenderly, then put her index finger between the emperor's upper lips, and said with a smile: "The concubine just joked with the emperor, did the emperor really annoy the concubine? The concubine has always been very good, but now that she has passed away for several years, the concubine naturally thinks that she will be reborn in bliss. This kind of thing can not only calm the fairy soul of Empress Xiaozhao, but also calm Wan'er's heart. Wouldn't it be fun to do it?" As he spoke, he snorted coquettishly, and turned his back to pretend to be angry: "It's the emperor who said that to the concubine just now, and between the lines, it is full of doubts about the concubine."

"You are only allowed to joke with me, but I am not allowed to play tricks with you?"

The emperor smiled relievedly, and took Rong Yue into his arms: "You used to be the most disciplined, but you don't want to learn these tricks with Wan'er now."
