Harem for a living

Chapter 121

When we returned to Chengqian Palace, it was already Youshi.Fu Jinyao sat down on the beauty's couch, and was dazed for a while. The big maid beside her, Xue Qing, brought her tea: "Your Majesty, drink a cup of tea to warm up first."

Concubine Xian came back to her senses, took a sip from the teacup, put it down and sighed: "Ma Jieyu is lucky, she gave birth to a prince this time, I don't know if the emperor will enshrine her, he can be regarded as having both sons and daughters." .”

"Your Majesty, you are still young, and you are new to the palace. Don't worry too much about women's affairs here." Xue Qing persuaded with a smile: "Besides, what if Ma Jieyu gave birth to a prince? It's not the same Concubine Yang is making a living under Concubine Yang. In the future, Concubine Yang will say what Ma Jieyu will do, and Concubine Yang will control how Ma Jieyu's child will be raised. Why do you compare with her?"

Concubine Xian pursed her lips and smiled, turned to look at Xueqing, and nodded her forehead: "You can talk."

"That's what the empress taught me." Xue Qing said with a smile. Seeing that Concubine Xian was still a little unhappy, she continued to persuade her: "Now you should think about how to pull Concubine Chen down. You are far away from Concubine Chen. The location is only one step away."

Concubine Xian's face became serious, and she glared at Xueqing: "Why are you still so careless? Are you able to say these words? If it gets out, I can't keep you! You, sooner or later, I will be with you!" This mouth suffers a lot!"

"Your Majesty, forgive me. This servant only talks in front of you. After going out, this servant's mouth will be locked automatically to ensure that nothing that should be said will be leaked out." Xue Qing seemed to be with Xian The concubine was used to joking, so she didn't think she made a gesture on her mouth with a sticky smile.

Concubine Xian also smiled, and stretched out her hand to pinch her cheek: "You, rely on me to spoil you."

"That's because the empress loves the servant girl, so the servant girl dares to be so bold." Xue Qing tilted her head and said cutely. Concubine Xian and her laughed and said with a sigh: "Speaking of it, pull Chen Guifei down That's fine, but Ben Gong didn't expect that Concubine Chen Guifei looks pure and innocent, but she is not an ignorant and stupid woman."

"Your Majesty, in fact, this servant thinks that you may overestimate Concubine Chen Gui." Xue Qing hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Although the fourth prince is fine this time, it is just that Concubine Chen Guifei happened to go over to have a look, and then found out Question. Afterwards, the emperor helped to investigate this matter, and then dealt with Concubine Hu. If Concubine Chen Guifei was smart, she would not have blamed Concubine De for this matter."

Anyway, in the end, Chen Manrou didn't do anything to Concubine Xian, the person behind the scenes, so she was actually an idiot.

Concubine Xian thought for a while, and a smile appeared on her face: "That's right, I really think highly of her. It's just a pity that Concubine De, such a useful chess piece, was exposed all of a sudden. Next time I deal with Concubine Chen Gui, it will be a pity." There is no need for Concubine De."

Concubine De is also stupid, so she helped her settle Chen Xiang's family without having to provoke her a little bit.However, Chen Xiang's family members still have to find a way to get rid of them.In this world, only the dead can keep secrets forever.

As for Concubine De, she just wanted to prove her innocence, and Concubine Chen would definitely not believe it.

"Your Majesty, we can kill two birds with one stone." Xue Qing rolled her eyes, leaned into Concubine Xian's ear and whispered, "Mother, Ma Jieyu just gave birth to a little prince, if so, Concubine Chen would kill the little prince... "

Concubine Xian's eyes lit up, and she patted the table lightly with her palm: "Good idea! No matter if it's Concubine Yang or Concubine Chen, as long as one of them is involved, then this palace's opportunity will come. However, who will come forward this time?" Woolen cloth?"

"Madam, Concubine Liu is still raising Ma Jieyu's little princess." Xueqing said with a smile, the corners of Concubine Xian's mouth became wider, she thought about it, nodded and said: "Let me think about it, Bengong If we want to find a foolproof method this time, we must ask one of them to make room for me."

Xueqing hurriedly squeezed the shoulders of Concubine Xian: "At that time, empress, you will be the imperial concubine empress, and there will be help from the grand master outside. After a while, the empress empress will have another accident, and you will be the most honorable woman in the Daqing Dynasty .”

Concubine Xian rolled her eyes, she leaned on the couch and patted the back of Xueqing's hand: "Don't talk nonsense, the empress is very virtuous, I only admire and respect the empress, I don't think about anything else."

The master and servant chatted and laughed for a while, Xue Ming came in and said that the dinner was ready, would you like to serve it.Concubine Xian was in a better mood now, she nodded with a smile and let the dinner be served.After the meal, Concubine Xian asked while cleaning her hands: "Whose brand did the Emperor turn over?"

"Returning to your empress, the emperor has gone to Jingren Palace." Xue Ming said respectfully, Concubine Xian's face darkened, but after all she didn't say anything, she turned to the study and took two books, then leaned on the bedside to read them.

Concubine De in the Yonghe Palace was also restless at the moment. She held the teacup and rubbed it for a long time before asking with a livid face: "Is everything you said true? Yu Shi has already participated in my eldest brother? Then my father is How did you say it?"

"Return to the mother's words, the Duke said, said..." The little maid was trembling, and her stuttering was a little unclear. Concubine De stretched out her hand and grabbed the cup next to it and smashed it in front of the little maid: "You tell me word by word. Clear! What did the Duke of the country say!"

"The Duke said that the son is not good at self-cultivation, he is not as good as an animal, he doesn't have such a son! He also said that he deserves to die, he has no shortage of sons." The little girl closed her eyes and quickly said all the words.

Concubine De's face turned as dark as the bottom of a pot in an instant, she got up and grabbed the things around her and threw them on the ground. She didn't care what she got, and scolded as she threw it: "There are a lot of sons? It must be that bitch Li Shi who is here again!" What did father say in front of me! I really thought that if my elder brother died, her mouse-like son would inherit the title! Just dreaming! As long as I am still alive, the title can only belong to my elder brother!"

After cursing, the anger in Concubine De's heart dissipated a little, she turned her head and saw that little maid was still kneeling on the ground, Concubine De angrily shouted: "What are you still kneeling there for? Could it be that I want Bengong to help you up?" ?”

The little maid hurriedly kowtowed: "The servant dare not, the maid has not mentioned it yet, the servant dare not."

Concubine De sneered, and snapped: "Don't you wink?"

The little servant girl hurriedly got up and stepped aside, Concubine De stretched out her hand and slapped her: "Bitch, get out!"

The little maid didn't dare to say anything, didn't even dare to cover her face, and walked out the door with her body bent.Behind her, Concubine De was still cursing: "That bitch Chen Manrou is lucky, how can even a lowly person like Ma Jieyu be lucky? She really made her give birth to a little prince! Bitch! They're all sluts!"

"Hehe, so what if you are born, you have a life to be born, and you have to have a life to let him grow up!" Concubine De scolded and laughed, and the little maid outside shrank her shoulders, looking timid,

Hongzhen came over and pulled the little maid to the next room, "What, you were beaten again?"

The little maid looked cowardly: "Sister Hongzhen, the empress is in a bad mood, it wasn't on purpose, I don't feel pain."

Hongzhen sighed, went to the table to open a box and took the ointment: "You can apply some yourself, it was given to me by my mother, and I didn't use much. Don't blame my mother, there, I just gave birth today. A little prince, my wife has been in the palace for three years, and she hasn't conceived yet, so it's inevitable that she will be in a bad mood, so please take care of me, I have some snacks here, you can take them back to eat later."

"Thank you, Sister Hongzhen, I don't blame the empress." The little maid raised her head and smiled, and said childishly, "I know that the empress is in a bad mood, and the empress is a good person. She even gave me a hairpin last time. It's so big. The flowers made of gold are so beautiful."

Seeing that there was no resentment on her face, Hongzhen breathed a sigh of relief, stuffed her with some silver anklets, and asked her to go to the imperial hospital to get some medicine, and then let her go back.After tidying up her clothes, she went into Concubine De's room.

"Your Majesty, it's useless to be angry. We have to find a way to rescue the eldest son first. The old lady's health is not very good. If something happens to the old lady, the Duke has made up his mind to change the eldest son..."

Concubine De's face flashed sullenness: "I don't believe anyone dares to have such a life!"

"Your Majesty, don't forget, that one has always been the Duke's favorite." Hong Zhen made a gesture, and Concubine De's face darkened even more.After a long while, he took a deep breath and calmed down his emotions: "You are right, now I have to find a way to get the eldest brother out first."

If something happened to Zhang Qingzhen in the prison, the title of the British government would fall to those bastards.At that time, Zhang Wanting will be in the palace, but she will not have the support of the British government.Maybe, she will end up worse than Concubine Hu.

Seeing that she had come to her senses, Hongzhen hurried outside to greet a few young maids, and asked them to clean up all the porcelain pieces in the room.Then he brought a cup of tea to Concubine De: "Your Majesty, have you figured out what to do? The slaves have already made inquiries, and the person who came forward to sue the Shizi is the family of the Jinshi. The one who submitted the memorial to the Duke's Mansion is the inspector." courtyard."

"The Inspectorate?" Concubine De frowned and thought for a moment, then asked with an uneasy expression: "I remember, Chen Guifei's elder brother was just promoted to the Sixth Division Head of the Inspectorate last year to Shizhong?"

Hongzhen nodded, and Concubine De rubbed her forehead: "What can we do? Concubine Chen Guifei must have investigated the matter of the Fourth Prince a while ago. Maybe this time, Concubine Chen Guifei is making trouble."

"Your Majesty, you were instigated by Concubine Xian about the Fourth Prince's matter, but you didn't interfere at all." Hong Zhen said with a smile, Concubine De's eyes lit up, she clapped her hands and said with a smile: "Well said, this matter, But what Concubine Xian did, I was just used by Concubine Xian."

"The Zheng family took care of Grand Master Fu's face, so they gave Zhang Jinghui a favor and allowed him to serve as an official again. Chen Xiang's family was also arranged by Zhang Jinghui, but I didn't do it either." Concubine De smiled proudly. After a while, he asked again: "Then shall we go directly to Concubine Chen Gui for help?"

When the word "begging" was mentioned, Concubine De gritted her teeth. If anyone in the palace she hated the most, it would undoubtedly be Chen Manrou who entered the palace with her.They entered the palace together. Originally, she thought that Chen Manrou was young, naive and somewhat ignorant, and she must be a good pawn to use as a stepping stone for herself in the future.

Unexpectedly, Chen Manrou was so lucky that she rose step by step, and now she has become a noble concubine, pressing on top of her head.She has always been very dissatisfied with Chen Manrou, so when Concubine Xian came to lobby, she immediately agreed.

Seeing that Chen Manrou was so heartbroken that she wanted to live, Zhang Wanting could immediately set off firecrackers to celebrate.However, Chen Manrou's luck was really good.

"Your Majesty, we can't ask Concubine Chen, if this happens, Concubine Chen will definitely blame you for the Fourth Prince's affairs. Let's do this..." Hong Zhen moved closer to Concubine De's ear and whispered a lot.

The more she said, the brighter De Fei's eyes became.After Hongzhen finished speaking, Concubine De stretched out her hand and patted Hongzhen's arm in relief: "It's lucky to have you, otherwise, I really don't know what to do. Don't worry, if you are loyal to Bengong, I will never sorry for you."

"The servant serves the empress wholeheartedly. As long as the empress is good, the servant will be happy." Hongzhen said with a smile, the concubine De was more satisfied, she reached out and pulled out the hairpin from her head and stuck it in Hongzhen's hair, and praised Hongzhen twice. sentence.
