The Biography of Concubine Wen Xi in Qing Palace

Chapter 537 Eight Concubines
However, the happy event of Concubine Yi's birth came to the palace before it was warmed up, and another heart-wrenching event came from Yonghe Palace seven days later.

The sixth elder brother Yin Zuo died of illness. On May 24, the [-]th year of Kangxi, he exhausted his energy and died in Yonghe Palace.

The emperor mourned greatly, and met with the etiquette of half a country's funeral.With Yin Zuo's death, Lin Lan lost weight rapidly.

When I saw her again a month later, the first sentence I said to Wanyu was: "Last night Yinzuo asked me when I wanted Mrs. Tong to go down to accompany him."

Wan Yu lightly stroked her long hair that was slightly rough and not curled up, and said softly: "Tomorrow is the month before Yin Zuo's death, you can dress up and come to my palace."

Although I don't know what Wanyu's intention is, no matter how sad I am, life must go on.

The moonlight is cool and leisurely sprinkled, setting off the sky full of stars that are as bright as gems.

When Lin Lan came, Wan Yu had already retreated to the left and right, and she was the only one in the main hall of Changchun Palace looking at each other in dismay.

After she was seated, Shuangruo and Yunchan led a person inside.

The man buried his head extremely low, as if afraid of being recognized by others.

Wan Yu glanced at him, and said with a sneer, "Since you are here, you have agreed to this matter. I saw you happy when I took the money. Why are you acting like a thief now?"

The man smiled apologetically and raised his head, only then did Lin Lan see clearly that the person who came was none other than Qiu Qi who was serving beside Rong Yue.

Just wondering how Wanyu would call her here, she heard Wanyu say: "Is the money still worth spending comfortably?"

Qiu Qi looked like a slave, smiling so hard that he couldn't close his mouth: "Naturally, naturally."

Wannai said: "3000 taels of silver is the one-year allowance of this palace's Changchun Palace, and it is also a glory that you have never seen in your life. This palace can give you more than you think. You are evil in front of the imperial concubine. Do everything, can you get such a good thing?"

Qiu Qi bowed and shook his head: "Following Concubine Wan is naturally more sweet."

"Once you get the money, you have to do things well. If you do it quietly and without attracting attention, you are considered capable." Wan Yu straightened her face, took a sip of tea, and asked without raising her head: " When will there be any movement?"

Qiu Qi replied: "Since the sixth elder brother passed away, my minister has replaced the imperial concubine's abortion medicine. She is eager to urge her son to take it every day. She can't imagine that there will be a result within three months."

Lin Lan's eyes flashed when she heard the words, and she asked, "What did sister do?"

Wan Yu didn't answer, but only thought of praising Qiu Qi: "Excellent, continue to serve her. When the incident happens, I will take care of it and promise you a good way out."

Qiu Qi bowed three times on his knees, then bowed his head and hurriedly left.

After waiting for people to leave, Lin Lan got up and walked to Wanyu's side and said anxiously: "What did sister do? We hate Tong Shi, but if sister takes her life like this, she will always involve herself, sister."

"What's the point of asking her to die?" Wanyu smiled lightly: "I just want her to lack one thing. One thing she values ​​most. We must let her despair enough, and then push her to see her live on her own." It would be a pleasure to die."

"The imperial doctor is someone close to Tong's family. Is my sister afraid of his betrayal?"

Wan Yu smiled: "The people around Tong are used to her ruthlessness, how can they treat her sincerely? Besides, Qiu Qi is a person who is used to greedy for money, and it is not difficult to buy people as long as they want." After finishing speaking, she held her hand again. Lin Lan's hand persuaded: "There is one more thing, I need your help. Seeing that the emperor has returned to his former appearance recently, even if there is no fragrance medicine to cause trouble, he still enjoys singing and singing every night. After the death of the sixth elder brother The emperor always feels that he owes you, and often calls you to sleep with him, but you always refuse to go. Without the emperor's favor, how do you want to deal with Tong Shi?"

"Sister, I can't do it."

"Think about your children, think about Yinzuo, think about Yinzhen, think about Yunjing, there is nothing you can't do."

After leaving the palace that night, Lin Lan thought about it all night.

She understood that she would never be able to break out of this cold prison in her life.

Since you can't get out, you have to live well.

In the days that followed, Lin Lan used the excuse of losing her son to act extremely weak and tender, just like the emperor's favorite woman.

Knowing the emperor's temperament, it is really not difficult to get favored.

She has a face that the emperor likes, and there are many things that others can't hope for. She only needs to flick her wrist to have everything.

In September of this year, Linlan was happy again, and the news spread to Wanyu's ears when she personally entered the Changchun Palace, and Wanyu was really happy for her.

During the conversation, Lin Lan occasionally mentioned to her: "My sister is about to give birth. The emperor has only chatted with my sister in Changchun Palace recently, but rarely mentioned other things. There is just one thing I want to talk to my sister. I always want to talk about it in my heart." It doesn't feel right."

Seeing her solemn expression, Wanyu smiled lightly and said, "Let's talk about what happened."

"The emperor has gradually developed early aging symptoms recently, and in addition to excessive indulgence, he always seems to be unable to do what he wants. It is such a shameful thing, and there are rumors from somewhere in the harem, only that the emperor is no longer powerful."

What men in the world care about most, the emperor is no exception.

Such absurd words were probably coming from the mouths of the servants who don't know where to look, Wan Yu's heart tightened, and she asked, "Has the emperor heard about it?"

Lin Lan nodded and replied: "I heard, but this matter is not important. When I was sleeping overnight, I heard the emperor mentioned that many main halls in the East and West Palaces are empty. Now the four corners of the imperial concubine are complete, and the concubines are all empty. There are only four people, the emperor's intention is to increase the number of concubines."

"Who does the emperor want?"

"Ms. Tong came from the sidelines, so she naturally chose to say what she wanted, but" Lin Lan said in a low voice with difficulty, "The emperor may have heard rumors that he was not good at all, so he just wanted to act like that." People will look at it. So it was decided to catch up with the New Year's Eve, and add four more concubines. Liang nobleman is the good concubine, Sehetu nobleman is the respectful concubine, Huifei's cousin Nala Junruo is the Tong concubine, and the nobleman is the inlaid concubine. concubine."

Lin Lan said this very softly, but it sounded like a thunderclap in her ears.

How could the emperor become like this?

so unbearable
Wanyu suddenly felt a slight chill in her abdomen, and said with pain: "The eight concubines and the fourth concubine already have all the six palaces in the east and west, and I live in one palace with Mrs. Tong, how do the fourteen princes live in separate palaces? "

Seeing that Wanya's face changed, Lin Lan asked her a few words of concern, and only waited for Wanya to answer that nothing happened before she said: "Sister, the current emperor is no longer the former emperor, and your thoughts about him don't matter." It's time to break up together. The obsession is too deep, and the one who will be hurt in the end will only be yourself."

Wan Yu wanted to say something, but when she opened her mouth, she gasped for a while, and couldn't speak any more.

There were bursts of pain in her lower abdomen, and she bowed down protecting her belly. Seeing this, Lin Lan lifted the cloak under her skirt and exclaimed, "Sister, I'm afraid I'm going to give birth!"
