The Biography of Concubine Wen Xi in Qing Palace

Chapter 59 Imprisonment
Xuerong snuggled up next to the pillow on Wanyu's couch, her bulging paws lightly stepped on Wanyu's neck, making her itch.

With a quiet smile on Wanyu's face, she tapped her fingertips on its small pricked ears.

Xuerong protected her small face with her paws, stepped back a few steps shyly, then stretched out her pink tongue to lick her paws, and then licked Wanyu's hands.

Wannai felt the back of her hand become numb from the licking of its barbed tongue. At this moment, there was a strong wind outside the door, and the whistling whistle seemed to blow off the roof.

The windows of the house and the front door were blown open by the wind at the same time, and the white velvet flakes flew in densely like snow falling on Wanyu's face, blinding her eyes.

In a trance, she saw Xuerong's body flashing, jumped to the ground and walked a few quick steps, then looked back at her, and yelled 'meow'.

Wan Lai anxiously told it not to run around in the wind outside the house, and wanted to throw the quilt to the ground, but its body seemed to be bound by ropes and could not move.

She watched helplessly as Xuerong's petite body turned back and forth in the furious wind, before finally disappearing.

"Snow velvet!"

Wan Lai let out a cry of surprise, sweating profusely and suddenly opened her eyes, only to see that she was lying on a warm couch in the Palace of Yanxi Palace, where did the catkins come from, and there was only endless snow falling outside the house.

Yun Chan was cleaning the dusty incense burner in the dormitory at the side, when she heard Wan Yu's scream, she was overjoyed, walked to her side and took Juan Zi to wipe the sweat from her forehead: "Young master, please wake up!" Now, since you passed out, you've been sweating all over, and you're going to scare the slaves."

Wanyu only felt a pain in her body, and with Yunchan's support, she sat up and leaned against the head of the bed. The surroundings were deserted, so quiet that it was frightening.

She looked around and saw that Yunchan was the only one serving in the dormitory, so she asked, "Where are the others? But they were taken by the queen for interrogation?"

Yun Chan looked a little uneasy, and replied in a low voice: "Immortal Concubine Yi is stopping me, after all, Empress Empress has not done anything horrific. It's just that the young master has been demoted, so she doesn't need so many people to serve her." , and sent Sister Yunshan and the others out."

She fetched a light blue single cloak for Wanyu and put it on, and said: "The empress was going to punish them to work as errands in the building office, but the concubine Yi first opened her mouth to say that Aunt Shuangruo and Li Huan had been together before. Eunuch Yin was someone who left her palace, so he gave her to take him back to Yikun Palace. Concubine Hui was also smart and took the opportunity to keep Sister Yunshan. The servant girl served the young master not long ago, and she had served the nobleman before. That's why the empress left the slaves alone."

As she spoke, she raised a warm smile, and looked at Wanyu with hot and innocent eyes: "It's also fortunate that this servant can serve the little master's side next to her."

Wan Yu didn't know what to say for a while.She wrapped tightly the single cloak she wore on her body, closed her eyes and concentrated for a moment, then said, "You have a heart, and then slowly asked: "Where is the snow velvet?"

Yun Chan's heart trembled, and she didn't answer for a while.

Because just now above the main hall, after Wanyu witnessed Xuerong being strangled to death by Kang Fushou, she fainted from excitement, the queen ordered someone to throw it into a bucket full of filth, and said that the palace staff would clean it up later. When the filth is carried out, it is to be dumped.

With such an ending, how can Yunchan bear to speak to Wanyu?
She was thinking about how to use a cover to deceive Wannao and make her feel better, but suddenly she was startled by a knock on the door outside the bedroom and her body trembled.

There are imperial eunuchs guarding outside the main hall, but who is it at this moment?
She probed the door and asked a question, only to hear Concubine Yi replying outside the room, she let go of her hanging heart, and hurriedly ran to lift the door lock to welcome Concubine Yi inside.

Concubine Yi glanced at Wanyu lightly on her face, and immediately ordered Yunchan to go out and wait.

After the door of the dormitory hall was closed again, Wannao, who was lying on the couch, could no longer restrain her emotions on the verge of collapse, and burst into tears.

Concubine Yi slowly walked to her side and sat on the edge of the couch, the silk on her body was like flowing water without any wrinkles.She smoothed the hem of her clothes, and turned the blood jade finger in her hand.After Wanyu's crying became weaker, she calmly said, "Now there are no outsiders, so you can cry to your heart's content when you are wronged."

Wanyu regained her composure for a while, sobbing: "Eldest sister, since I entered the palace, I have been careful in every step of the way, asking myself that there are no mistakes or omissions, why did I get framed up to this point?"

Concubine Yi stopped what she was doing, and smiled sadly: "It's your fault that the emperor favors you too much."

Wan Yu sneered and wiped away the tears, and said in a daze, "Sheng Chong? Eldest sister thinks that the emperor suspects me so far, so it's considered a favor?"

"He is the emperor. He was the monarch of the people in the world first, the wise monarch of the officials in the past, and the husband of the concubines in the six palaces later." Concubine Yi paused for a moment, took off her armor and wiped it down on the back of her hand for Wanyu. Then she shook her head and sighed: "The connection between the former dynasty and the harem is to affect the whole body. How do you expect the emperor to pamper you and trust you? Don't you want to be a flying swallow and a virtuous man? Or praise Si Daji? Today Angui has a miscarriage, and you are inextricably bound up with the strangeness of it, if the emperor doesn't say anything about it, what kind of discussions will happen in the palace?"

Wan Lai bowed her head in silence, her eyes still full of disappointment.

Her body trembled slightly, and she looked very much like a cute rabbit that was frightened by a wild beast while drinking water by the stream.

Concubine Yi couldn't help feeling a pain in her heart when she saw her sad expression, she leaned on the head of the bed, wrapped her arms around Wanyu's shoulders, and gently wrapped her around her.

"Today I proposed to demote you and ground you. The emperor agreed without even thinking about it. In fact, he wanted to protect you from his own heart." She said this with a strong tone, as if she intended to force Wannai to believe her.

Which of the women in the harem can live a smooth life without the emperor's favor?

That's exactly the case, even if she knows that the emperor is ruthless, she still has to think about Wanyu's life. If she refuses to accept the emperor from the bottom of her heart because of a grudge at this moment, then she doesn't know how to spend the days to come.

"If he hesitates for a moment at the moment, the empress will definitely make use of the problem. At that time, it will be considered easy to send you to the cold palace. In the cold palace, it is not much harder to kill a person than to crush an ant. , when the time comes, there will be no proof of death, and others will give you an excuse to kill yourself in fear of crime, what should you do?"

Concubine Yi raised her slender eyebrows, pursed her bright red lips like silk, and said, "On the contrary, they are now imprisoned in Yanxi Palace. Even if others want to do it, they have no chance. Save your life, and you will be punished." The day it gets snow."

Wan Lai smiled wryly: "It turned out that I was so infatuated that I always believed what he said. I never thought that he is the emperor, and he is the most difficult person in this world to find sincerity." She was weak Turning her head to one side, biting her lips and teeth, she said fiercely: "Eldest sister thinks, who is it that is so troublesome to plan? Queen?"

Concubine Yi shook her head and rejected Wanyu's conjecture: "What the queen did was just to push the boat along with the current. She executed Xue Rong to punish your heart and make you sad and desperate. If you say that this matter was all done by her, it is also No offense. She is a queen, she is the first wife of the emperor's matchmaker, and her mother's family background is even more prominent, why bother to do so many ridiculous things."

A cold light flashed through her bright eyes, her eyelids narrowed slightly, and she said coldly, "Compared to the queen's open and bright greeting, the one who really hides behind the back and shoots back is the most frightening."
