The Biography of Concubine Wen Xi in Qing Palace

Chapter 590 Yueyu
On the second day when Zhuo Lan became a concubine, she entered the main hall of the Changchun Palace and took a seat to invite An Wanyu.

She is the one who saved Elder Brother Shi's life, and Yu Wanyu is indebted to her.

In today's harem, Wanlao is in charge of the six palaces and deputy queens with the position of imperial concubine, so her benefactor will have a lot of care from others.So this is also the first time that I haven't heard any gossip when the newcomer pays his respects for the first time after being canonized.

Everyone gossiped for a while, then the Jinli entered from the outside and murmured a few words in the ear, Wanyou nodded indifferently, then sat upright and took the tea cup and took a sip.

The tea was slightly hot, burning her thin red lips.

Lin Lan saw that she was a little absent-minded, so she asked, "Ma'am, what happened?"

Wan Lai smiled slightly: "It's nothing important. Just now when I entered the ceremony, the guards at the gate of Chengqian Palace came to report that the imperial concubine had coughed up blood and fainted. She was dying of a serious illness. Let's see if I should find an imperial doctor to treat her."

Lin Lan's slightly frowned brows relaxed for a moment, and she said coldly: "The emperor thinks she is unlucky and forbids people to see her, why does your empress care about her?"

Wan Lai raised her hand and used her armor to comb her hair hanging from her temples: "After all, she is the imperial concubine personally appointed by the emperor, and she has not been deposed. We must ask the emperor for his opinion on this matter."

Please An Bi sent all the concubines to enter Qianqing Palace alone to tell the emperor about Chengqian Palace.

The previous dynasty was busy with political affairs, and the emperor was reviewing the memorial, almost without raising his eyes, he said perfunctorily: "I said, you make up your mind about the affairs of the harem, and you don't have to report to me."

Such unfeeling words, as if the seriously ill person today is not a concubine who has slept on the same bed for twenty years, but a cow, horse, sheep and pigs raised in a livestock house, and it doesn't matter if he dies.

Wan Lai took the order and retreated, and ordered Bai Changqing to go to Chengqian Palace to take a look for her.

Bai Changqing replied at night, only saying that the poison had penetrated into the bone marrow, there was no way to recover, and his life span was no more than ten days at most.

After hearing such words, Wan Yu didn't feel that she was half happy.

Finally, this day came, when her time was approaching, and her closest relatives and enemies who had been entangled with her for more than ten years were going away, and she didn't know whether to cry or laugh.

She leaned on the warm seat and thought for a long time before ordering someone to summon Rong Yue's sister, Tong Jia Rong Yu.

"Your elder sister is seriously ill. I know that although you two are biological sisters, you have never met face to face. When it's over, you should go and see her. Don't leave any regrets."

Rong Yu said with some palpitations: "The emperor issued an order to imprison the imperial concubine and not allow anyone to visit, concubines dare not break the taboo."

"It's okay, I promise you." After Wanna finished speaking, she waved her hand to make her retreat.

Rong Yue, the eldest sister, really has no affection for her.

Although they are connected by blood, after the death of Rongyue's biological mother Fucha, the young Rongyu often heard Ama Tong Guowei complaining in the mansion, only saying that she was a mourner, and he didn't hear Rongyue at all.

Later, my mother was established as the official wife by Tong Guowei, and I became the daughter of a thousand nobles. I mentioned the eldest sister to my mother, but was reprimanded by her mother: "She is not favored by the emperor, and she is not loved by you. Ma waits to see, entering the palace can't help our Tong family, he is a useless person, Yu'er will definitely not follow her example in the future."

Such words took root in Rong Yu's heart, so even though there was a gentle Xu Ling today, she still did not want to see Rong Yue.

She had countless excuses to avoid this matter, but there was an inexplicable mystery between the blood relatives.

In the end, without knowing why, he walked to the gate of Chengqian Palace after hesitating all the way.

This is the first time she has come here since entering the palace, and because of her embarrassing status, she always taboos this place more than others.

Ink was splashed in the night, she raised her eyes, and looked at the three big characters of "Chengqian Palace" on the plaque on the gate of the palace, reflecting the dim palace lantern.

Painted in gold and pink, luxurious and exquisite, I think she was also infinitely respected and favored in the past.

It's just that it's embarrassing to end up in this field now.

Seeing that he was coming, the imperial guards guarding the gate helped to open the palace gate and said, "My lord, don't stay too long."

Rong Yu nodded, and Xin stepped inside.

She walked all the way to the sleeping hall, and pushed open the heavy carved pineapple wooden door, and immediately there was a strong smell of fishy earth in the hall, which made people frown and hold their breath.

No one cleaned it for a long time, and the dust danced all over the sky, blinding her eyes.

She vaguely heard a few weak coughs coming from the depths, and she walked in slowly, only to see a woman with a full head of gorgeous hair standing alone on the couch, her eyes glowing with faint blue light, staring at her like a cat. .

She was a little scared and took two steps back, but the woman said at this moment: "Who are you?"

Her voice was as sharp and piercing as a night owl, taking advantage of the light moonlight, Rong Yu could see clearly that although the person in front of him was wrinkled and expressionless, his bones were exactly like him.

She knew that this was her elder sister.

But she couldn't believe it, she was only 35 years old, why did she look like an old man who was exhausted?
Rong Yu bravely stepped forward two steps, knelt down and called softly: "Elder Sister."

Rong Yue sized her up carefully, then got up suddenly, floating towards her like a disheveled ghost, and said in a serious tone: "It's you?"

Rong Yu nodded: "The imperial concubine is kind, allow me to come and see the eldest sister."

Rong Yue sneered, and helped Rong Yu up with wrinkled hands: "She knows I won't survive."

Rong Yu got up and supported the weak Rong Yue to sit down. Seeing the lingering eerie smile on Rong Yue's face, she felt infinitely sad: "Eldest sister has suffered."

"Bitter?" Rong Yue turned her head suddenly, and looked at her like a sharp sword: "How can you be better than me? You have been in the palace for a year, and the emperor wants you to sleep?"

Rong Yu lowered his head and did not answer, but there was no trace of regret on his face.

Rong Yue has the same blood on her body as hers, so she can feel her thoughts, so she said in one sentence: "I'm afraid you have someone else in your heart, wishing he didn't get close to you?"

Rong Yu raised his head abruptly, his face full of surprise: "How could Eldest Sister know?"

Rong Yue interrupted: "Depending on who the person you love is, I'm useless now, and the old man will think of a way to stuff you into the palace. You are Tong's daughter, so you are destined to be the same as me The ending. So you don't hate it?"

Rong Yu naturally had hatred in her heart, but she hesitated for a moment, then shook her head and said: "I enter the palace with the honor of the Tong family on my back, so I cannot have hatred. As a daughter of the Tong family, this is my inherent duty. What can you hate?"

Rong Yue looked up to the sky almost insanely and laughed, tears dripped from the corners of her sour eyes: "I don't hate it if I have survived for three or five years. But this Forbidden City is a place where you will be imprisoned for the rest of your life. You don't know what despair is, of course. Don't hate."

After laughing, he glanced at Rong Yu with contempt in his eyes: "I'm at the end of it, and I'm looking forward to a relief. But your good life is just beginning. There is still a long time in the palace, and I can't see that ruthless man The emperor of righteousness has passed away, I hope you can wait until that day, come to my memorial tablet and put a stick of incense on it, and tell me the good news."

Such blatant words of cursing the emperor made Rong Yu shudder with fright, all the hairs on his body stood up, for fear of being implicated by her.

Drenched in cold sweat, she knelt down to pay respects to Rong Yue, and ran away in a panic accompanied by her mournful laughter.
