The Biography of Concubine Wen Xi in Qing Palace

Chapter 799 Extra Story: Rong Yue II
It was later in the night, and I heard the crisp ringing of 'jingle bells' from the long street outside the palace.

Out of curiosity, I went out to find out, and saw that it was a sedan chair painted with the pattern of Luan, Phoenix and singing, which was carried by eight internal eunuchs to the gate of Chengqian Palace and stopped.

I took a closer look and saw that there were six rows of pearls hanging from the top of the sedan chair, all of which were of the same size. There were silver bells hanging under the pearls, which made a 'jingle' sound when the sedan chair shook and collided.

The supervisor in the respect room in charge laughed when he saw me, stepped forward to give a blessing and said happily that this Luanming Cheng'en sedan chair is for carrying concubines to the Qianqing Palace to serve her bed.

As if I hadn't recovered, I was surrounded by them and boarded the sedan chair.

After I entered the Qianqing Palace and was washed and dressed by the nuns, my naked body was wrapped in a thick yellow quilt with dragon patterns.

Mammy called out, and several inner prison guards entered and carried me to Xuan Ye's bedroom like this.

Spices were burned in the temple, and the smell was sweet and reassuring. I later found out that it was ambergris that only Xuan Ye could use.

But even the smell of ambergris made me nervous.

I lay on the couch for about a stick of incense before I heard movement outside.

I closed my eyes tightly, pulled the corner of the quilt with my fingers involuntarily, and listened attentively.

Hearing the sound of footsteps getting closer and closer, I felt that the edge of the couch sank and someone sat on the couch.

Then, a warm and strong hand pressed against mine, I trembled in fright, he held my hand tighter, and I heard him whispering in my ear in a very gentle tone One sentence.

He said, cousin, don't be afraid.

She didn't call me a concubine, nor did she call me by my name. The word "cousin" made the distance between us a lot closer in an instant.

For a moment, I no longer regarded him as a high-ranking emperor, but only as my cousin who was related to me by blood.

I finally dared to look directly at him, intoxicated by his gentle eyes.

That night, he became my real husband.

He treated me really well, the palace servants who went to Chengqian Palace every day to give gifts and rewards almost broke the threshold.

The other concubines also came, but I knew they didn't really expect me well.

Only Wannai, she took my hand and smiled like an unworldly child.I know she treats me kind of sincerely.

In the following period of time, it became the most common thing for Xuan Ye to turn over my sign. Even the empress said that the Luanming Cheng'en sedan chair wished it could take root at the gate of Chengqian Palace.

He is my first man, and he will definitely be the last man in my life.

There are so many women in the palace, how many of them can he treat like this?

I feel down-to-earth, even a little proud.

I began to thank Ama, and only attributed my favor to this place to his teaching me since childhood.

Until one day, I encountered a completely embarrassing thing.

That day I chatted with Wanyu for a long time in Chengqian Palace, when it was time for dinner she was in a hurry to leave, so I saw her off as usual.

When I went out of the palace gate, I saw the Luanming Cheng'en sedan chair parked at the entrance, Wanyu also felt curious, so she asked me what it was.

Lian Xin was the first to answer her question, and then urged me to get on the sedan chair quickly.

I almost stepped into the sedan chair door, only then did I realize that today's sedan chair is not here to pick me up.

It's Wannao.

Wanyu looked a little embarrassed, I knew she was afraid of my misunderstanding and wanted to explain to me, but how could the inner prisoner who followed the sedan chair give her all this time?

And seeing that the sedan chair didn't meet her in Yanxi Palace, but ran to Chengqian Palace, you can see how urgently the emperor called her.

To be honest, when I watched Luanming Chengen sedan chair leave that day, I really felt bad.

But I don't blame Wanyu, nor do I hate her.

The person carried by that sedan chair is not her, it will always be someone else.After entering the palace, I have to understand the cruel truth that Xuan Ye will never belong to me alone.I thought to myself, if he wants to pamper Wanyu, he can pamper me, at least he can treat me the same as before, that's fine.

But I really underestimated Wanyu, since she was favored, gradually, Xuanye no longer has my place in his heart.

It was almost a month, and I experienced it from being favored to being out of favor.

I often look at Xi Wei and Yu Wen who don't love much, but they can live comfortably on weekdays.But what about myself?
Some things, if you have never owned them from the beginning, you will not look forward to them.

The most frightening thing is that he once really favored you, but later that favor was lost without warning, which is chilling.

Later, on Chengrui's birthday, I made a bellyband for him.But he didn't want to be plotted against, which almost cost Chengrui's life.

I knelt in the main hall of Qianqing Palace and kowtowed to Xuanye, crying that I was wronged.

But in his eyes, I only saw hesitation.

I couldn't argue, I was alone, I even wanted to die to prove my innocence.

It was also this time that I truly saw the horror of the harem.

Everyone was saying seemingly different things in one go, but in fact they all wanted to push me to death.

Only Wannai, only she is willing to protect me.

Thinking of how I still hated her because of her favor before, I really can't bear it.

Later, with the help of Wanyu and Yide, I was cleared of the suspicion, and Xuanye also treated me favorably again.

Ke Wanyu's place in his heart is still irreplaceable.

I also recognized this fact.I shouldn't blame Wanyu, nor should I blame Xuan Ye.

This is Xuan Ye's choice, not Wan Yu's ability.

As for love, it doesn't make sense.

The days are so boring and go on day after day, the relationship between me and Wanyu becomes more and more intimate, but the relationship with Xuanye becomes more and more respectful.

Sometimes, I watched Xuan Ye and Wan Yu getting intimate in front of me, but I couldn't get in a word, wishing I could find a crack to sneak in.

She is also a woman, I can't lose to her in everything, why does she live the life I want to live, but I have to endure heart-pounding pain all the time?

For a period of time, I began to distance myself from Wannai and became less close to her.

I just can't pass my own test, I can't pass my own knot.

During those days, Concubine Hui Ru Naren often came to Chengqian Palace to sit with me and talk with me.

She is not as good as me in family background, looks not as good as me, and is older than me. I feel much more comfortable when I get along with her.

She often told me the rare things she did in Horqin in the past, and I would also tell her what I saw and heard when I was in the mansion.

After going back and forth, I made up my mind, and I once regarded her as Jinlan who was more sincere than Wanyu.

But I never imagined that such a person whom I confide in would stab me hard on the spine.

At that time, on a very ordinary day, she came to the palace to look for me, and took milk soup made by herself for me to drink.

I thought it was delicious, and drank two cups greedily, but before she left, I felt my stomach was stabbed like a knife and passed out.
