Shocking Harem Road: The Legend of Concubine Yi

Chapter 171 I Only Love You For My Life 3
The Empress Dowager nodded, continued with the work in hand, and said: "That's right. If he agrees, then it's okay; if he doesn't, it can only mean that they have no fate!"

Ming Xuanyu knew that grandma did not approve of this marriage, since grandma did not approve, then this matter would definitely not work out.

As for Zhao Mo himself, Ming Xuanyu knew that he would not agree.Because Ming Xuanyu had already received Zhao Mo's answer before talking about it with grandma.

Therefore, this marriage became a hot topic, and after a while, it disappeared.

With Tong's and Huo's family members imprisoned one after another, the queen's life became more and more difficult every day.She was powerless to intercede for her family in front of the emperor, because although it was a conspiracy, all found out were facts.At the beginning, Tong's family took refuge in Yang's family and King Mu, and later became King Yu. Although they didn't do any serious crimes, it was a betrayal for the emperor.And the queen also knew that Ming Xuanyu would not tolerate others betraying her.Therefore, now she can only watch her family members be punished, but there is nothing she can do.

For Concubine Zhen, those cases alone were not enough to depose the queen, because those things had little to do with the queen.In order to kill her with one blow, Concubine Zhen had to find a reason so that the queen would not be able to cry for injustice even if she died.However, what kind of thing should be able to drive the queen into Abi Hell?This is a question Zhen Guifei needs to consider.

Regarding the case, the queen heard that the Zhao family had also tampered with it, and in her opinion, this was not surprising.Because obviously, whether it is the Zhen family or the Zhao family, they not only have strong power in the court, but also have their influence in the harem, especially the Zhao family.Therefore, she, the queen, became the target of public criticism.

However, the queen is not a person who is easy to admit defeat. Both she and concubine Shu know that there is one person in the harem who has not participated in this matter, and this person is likely to affect the emperor's final decision, that is Concubine Yi!Obviously, the Empress Dowager would not help them anymore. Even though what the Zhao family did was not what the Empress Dowager intended, she did not stop it, which is enough to show her opinion on this matter.So, now it's up to Concubine Yi, and only by pulling Concubine Yi to their side can the situation turn around.

Combined vertically and horizontally, these strategies are not only applicable to state affairs, they are still very practical in the harem.

Compared with last year, the atmosphere of the Laba Banquet in the palace has changed a lot this year.

Xinyi obeyed Ming Xuanyu's advice and did not participate in the current fight.However, she could see clearly that Concubine Zhen's aura was far suppressing the empress, and even Concubine De, who had always been taciturn and indifferent to world affairs, became talkative.It seems that the battle between the Queen and Concubine Zhen has already been won or lost.

Like Xinyi, Zuo Hanqing doesn't care about these things, but lives his life peacefully, working as a clay figurine.

On the afternoon of the [-]th day of the twelfth lunar month, Concubine Shu came to Yongning Palace. As usual, she met Xian Concubine Zuo Hanqing and Jieyu Lin Yuhan.Seeing that Concubine Shu seemed to have something to do, Xinyi asked Zuo Hanqing and Lin Yuhan to go back first, and saw Concubine Shu alone.

Unexpectedly, after Zuo and Lin left, Concubine Shu knelt down in front of Xinyi with a plop.This kneeling frightened Xinyi.

According to the regulations, Concubine Shu's status is slightly higher than Concubine Yi's, and they have always strictly followed the rules.What kind of ceremony should be performed and what to say when meeting each other, all follow the palace rules.However, Concubine Shu-

Xinyi quickly helped Concubine Shu up, and said, "Sister, how can you take care of me like this? If there is anything, you can just say it, okay?" At this moment, Xinyi has actually guessed what Concubine Shu is doing.

Concubine Shu wiped her tears, sat beside Xinyi, and said, "Sister, the empress and I are in great trouble now. We can't save our family members, and we ourselves will have today and no tomorrow. I hope my sister will look after us." For the love of the past, save us this time!"

It really is for this!
However, since Ming Xuanyu had told her many times not to meddle in her own business, she couldn't say anything to Concubine Shu, so she could only comfort her and said: "Sister, please rest assured, the emperor will definitely uphold justice!" Then, she wiped Concubine Shu's tears.

Concubine Shu just shook her head, and said: "Sister, you don't know, most of the people who have fallen into trouble have always wanted to step on others when they are in trouble. Shall we speak a word of justice?"

Concubine Shu was choked with sobs. Although she did not have a deep friendship with Concubine Shu, at this point, Concubine Shu's tears were not fake.Besides, Concubine Shu has an arrogant personality. Although she came to Yongning Palace in the past to win her over, she said mostly appropriate words, but kneeling down and crying bitterly today is already a helpless move for Concubine Shu.Alas, people, it's only when the crisis comes—

"Sister, although the Queen's sister and I don't have many contacts with you, we all know that in this palace, you are the only person who handles things fairly. The emperor loves you so much. The family begs for mercy, it is good to save our lives, our family of several hundred people will never forget your kindness, sister!" Concubine Shu was about to kneel as she said that, Xinyi hurriedly asked Lian Er to come and help her Live in Concubine Shu.

"Sister, please, please intercede for us! Apart from you, there is really no one who can save us!" Concubine Shu choked up, the makeup on her face was already horrible.

Ming Xuanyu told her more than once to forbid her to interfere in the harem battle.Of course Xinyi understood his painstaking efforts, but how could she ignore Concubine Shu's plea?Just as Concubine Shu said, it is now the fate of hundreds of people.

She has no relatives anymore, she understands Concubine Shu's feelings in order to protect her family, but what should I do about this matter?
Seeing that Xinyi didn't respond, Concubine Shu knelt down in front of her again.

"Sister, please, as long as you are willing to intercede for our two families, I, Huo Xiangyun, am willing to serve as a slave and handmaiden in this life to repay my sister for your great kindness! Sister!" Concubine Shu actually kowtowed.

Xinyi helped the tearful Concubine Shu up, the sympathy from her flesh and blood made her forget his warning.

"Sister, don't worry! I will definitely do my best!"

Concubine Shu's tears stopped suddenly, and she couldn't believe that Xinyi really agreed to her.

"Sister, are you serious?" Concubine Shu asked in doubt.

Lian'er winks at Xinyi, hoping that she can reject Concubine Shu, because once involved in this fight, Xinyi will be in trouble.

However, Xinyi ignored Lian Er, and replied to Concubine Shu in a very positive tone: "Really! I will definitely help you in front of the emperor!"

Concubine Shu didn't understand Xinyi's original intention, because before, she and the queen believed that the reason Xinyi helped them was Concubine Zhen, because there was a grievance between Xinyi and Concubine Zhen, and this grievance had fallen since Xinyi was a female official. up.Now that both of them have given birth to princes, the conflict will be even deeper.Even if they don't fight now, one day the two of them will become sworn enemies for their sons.Right now, Concubine Zhen is the Queen's enemy, so the enemy's enemy is my friend.Winning such a friend is a very simple but effective method. As long as Xinyi becomes an ally of the queen, the final winner may not be Concubine Zhen!
But now, Xinyi actually agreed, how could Concubine Shu be unhappy?
"Sister, thank you, thank you! As long as you are willing to help, you will surely succeed!" Concubine Shu held Xinyi's hand, smiling through tears.

Seeing this situation, Lian Er resentfully walked out of the front hall.

She doesn't understand why Concubine Yi is so stupid?Concubine Shu obviously wanted to use Concubine Yi to deal with Concubine Zhen, so as to save her and the queen.well!Concubine Yi fell for it!If she really told the emperor, the emperor would be angry, so what should I do?When the time comes, don't say it's pleading for the empress, maybe I have to involve Concubine Yi herself!No, I must persuade her, absolutely not to watch Concubine Yi do stupid things!
Concubine Shu left Yongning Palace and went directly to Yikun Palace to tell the queen about the situation, and the queen was overjoyed.

"But Concubine Yi is also very scheming, I'm afraid she's just perfunctory you like this!" The queen said again.

"Sister, don't worry! Since she agreed, let's spread the news, let Chengqian Palace know, let Lafayette know too, and when the time comes, she will naturally be forced to our side!" Concubine Shu Said.

"But, what if she ignores it?" the queen worried.

"If Zhen Yunan knew that Concubine Yi was standing with us, she would definitely find a way to destroy it. However, Concubine Yi will not be drawn over by her. Concubine Yi is a smart person, she knows that once we lose to Zhen Yunan, she will Zhen Yunan's next goal. In order to protect herself, how could she remain neutral? She has no choice for a long time!" Concubine Shu said.

"Yes, yes, you are right!" the queen nodded.

"The question is, how much strength can Concubine Yi exert?" Concubine Shu thought.

The news of Concubine Shu's going to Yongning Palace soon reached the Empress Dowager.The Empress Dowager didn't show much surprise, she just fell into deep thought.

"Lafayette, in the eyes of a servant girl, Concubine Yi will not necessarily stand with the queen. The current situation is very clear, this robbery of the queen is inevitable. Concubine Yi will not gain any benefits by supporting the queen , On the contrary, you will harm yourself, Concubine Yi will not be so stupid!" Hong Shanggong said.

"What you said makes sense, but if Concubine Yi was really such a person who could clearly distinguish between interests and interests, she would not have interfered in the emperor's selection of concubines!" The Empress Dowager thought deeply.

"Master, if you don't tell me, this servant has forgotten about it." Hong Shanggong said with a smile, "Concubine Yi does have something, something unique!"

"Yes! However, the Queen's move is indeed a bit tricky!" The Empress Dowager sighed.

Hong Shanggong thought for a while and asked: "Lafayette, should we take the strong medicine?"

The Empress Dowager stopped painting, thought for a while, and said: "Let's see the situation first, if there is any problem with the Empress, we should settle this matter as soon as possible!"

"Is there going to be trouble with Concubine Yi?" Hong Shanggong asked.

"If she really does something stupid, let her do it! If you don't let her suffer, she still doesn't know what's going on in this harem!" The Empress Dowager said so, and continued to paint with her head down.

In Yongning Palace, since Concubine Shu left, Xinyi has been thinking about how to tell Ming Xuanyu.Lian Er saw that she had been silent, so she began to persuade her.Lian Er said something like "All this is Concubine Shu's plan, the empress should not cause trouble to her upper body", but Xinyi said, "So many lives, we can't just lose them like this!" Lian Er couldn't persuade her, He could only sigh, and left Yongning Palace to go to Qianqing Palace to find Zhang De and tell him all about it.

At night, Ming Xuanyu came to Yongning Palace, Xinyi organized her own words, a little absent-minded.He had noticed her abnormality a long time ago, but because he didn't know what happened, he didn't know what she was thinking.

Finally, she said it.

In this world, there are always people who are so stupid and put themselves at a disadvantage for those who have nothing to do with them.

In such a world of intrigue and selfishness, in this world where day and night alternate, and black and white alternate, how many people can maintain a selfless heart?

For Xinyi at this time, she has unknowingly been involved in the center of the power struggle!Whether she is stupid or treacherous, she is only acting with the kindness and compassion that a person should have and should not be discarded!
The night is deep, the north wind howls!
