Empress Xiao Zhaoren in Qing Dynasty

Chapter 33

Seeing the sincerity of her words, Concubine Yi couldn't help but feel a little moved: "Yes... Jinglin understands. He entered the palace in a hurry yesterday, and Jinglin didn't have time to congratulate her sister on concubine concubine. Especially My sister’s title—Zhaozhang Yunhan, Brilliant Sun and Moon, the combination of "日" and "Zhao" means to lead the whole day’s sunlight, but it’s very majestic.”

Rong Huang pursed her lips and smiled, this Tong family is really a talented woman, she can speak clearly even with a title, but it's hard for her to have a heart.

After she thanked Concubine Yi for her praise, she couldn't help but sighed: "Sister Yi is both talented and beautiful, she should have been honored and favored... It's just for no reason, why did Sister Yi fall into the water? To be honest, the Empress Dowager this morning I told my sister that I must find out about this matter, so that I can give you justice, sister."

Concubine Yi was slightly taken aback when she heard the words, looked at Rong Huang for a long while, and suddenly said quietly: "Sister Rong...I'll tell you about this, don't tell anyone else! Including the emperor, and the emperor too Queen Mother..."

Rong Huang's heart skipped a beat, she never expected that Mrs. Tong would say this suddenly, she nodded with 12 points of energy and said: "Okay, I promise you, sister just feel free to talk about it."

Concubine Yi said "Yes", her face was full of sincerity: "To be honest, Concubine Rong didn't ask me out that day, but Concubine Rong made an appointment with me..." At this point, she suddenly grabbed Rong Huang's hand. Holding his hand, he lowered his voice and said, "I jumped into the water on purpose to plant it on Concubine Rong!"

Rong Huang was taken aback, she had thought of countless possibilities, but she never thought that the truth would be like this.Isn't Tong Jinglin always boasting of being noble?She remembered that Tong Shi hated hearing about these nasty things in the harem the most during the draft.But why...why did Tong Jinglin take the initiative to attack others after just a few years?

More importantly, why did she tell Rong Huang all these secrets that would ruin her future? !

"Sister Yi, you...why did you do this?" Although Rong Huang was surprised, her voice was soft, and there was no trace of blame in her words.

At this moment, Yipin's eyes were particularly bright.She stared deeply at Rong Huang, never leaving her: "For my sister. All I did was for my sister... Jinglin knew long ago that you would receive the favor of my sister, and before my sister entered the palace, this The most favored person in the palace is Ma Jiashi, the concubine Rong. If I want to keep my sister safe, I can only divert Ma Jiashi's attention from her, so that she can take care of herself and have no energy left to harm others."

Rong Huang's heart skipped a beat, it seemed that Concubine Yi knew far more than she imagined!But Concubine Yi seemed to be honest with her, but it was difficult to tell the truth from the fake for a while, so Rong Huang must not rashly reveal all her details.She thought for a moment, and then put on a flustered look: "Sister Yipin, you... how did you know that Ma Jiashi wanted to kill me?"

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Rong Huang was stunned.Could it be... Could it be that this concubine Yi is also a reborn girl?If this is the case, God would love to joke too much!And the joke is not funny at all!
Fortunately, Concubine Yi quickly dispelled this possibility by herself: "This is something that I, Ama, found out. In fact, I was still young at the time, and I was not at the age of the draft. It was Ma Jia who tried to make me Entering the palace ahead of time... I, Ama, felt strange at the time, and learned something about the Ma Jia family by following the clues."

Rong Huang wanted to ask again, but Concubine Yi obviously didn't want to say more, so she interrupted softly: "I know my sister must have many doubts in her heart, but... there are some things that my sister can talk about. But there are some things... my sister must not Say more, otherwise it will be a disaster for you and me. But sister, as long as you have a firm belief, I, Tong Jinglin, will never harm you. "

Rong Huang is no longer a child of two or three years old, so how could Concubine Yi believe whatever she said?But seeing Concubine Yi's appearance, it was obvious that she couldn't get anything to say, so she had to get up and leave full of doubts.

Before leaving, she subconsciously turned her head to look at Yipin, and she didn't want to just glance at it so casually, Ronghuang was stunned.

In Rong Huang's impression, Tong Jinglin has always been a dignified and elegant lady, she doesn't like to gossip, and she is a little reticent.No matter when, she gives people the feeling of calmness like water, her eyes are clear and bright, extremely pure.Even after falling into the water yesterday, she only looked a little weak, without giving people the slightest sense of embarrassment.

But the moment she turned her head, Rong Huang saw a flustered and helpless Tong family.She lost her composure and knelt on the bed, hurriedly took out a book from under the quilt and rubbed it repeatedly, as if she wanted to smooth out the wrinkles on it.

What was confused, doubtful, and incomprehensible before, at this moment, Rong Huang understood everything.

I understand why Tong Shi jumped into the water by himself, he would rather get sick than sleep.

I understood that the strange noise she heard when she entered the room was that Concubine Yi was collecting books.

I also understand...why Tong Shi said that she would not harm her.

All of this is because Tong Jinglin deeply, deeply likes Rong Ruo.But she is the emperor's cousin with a special status, so she must enter the palace no matter what.In her eyes, Ronghuang was once Nalan Rongruo's fiancée, but was forced into the palace because of the emperor's wishful thinking.Thinking about it this way, they become poor people who share the same disease.

What Rong Huang didn't know was that the soft-hearted Tong Shi even shed tears for Rong Huang.From Tong's point of view, she felt that Rong Huang must not want to enter the palace, and was forced by the royal family and family to become a concubine.Compared with herself, Tong felt that Rong Huang was even more pitiful.Because Tong Shi just admired Rong Ruo silently, Rong Ruo didn't have any affection for her.Even if she doesn't enter the palace, there is no possibility for the two of them.

However, Rong Huang and Rong Ruo had a verbal marriage. If Rong Huang could be exempted from the election, he could be Rong Ruo's first wife.

Compared with not being able to ask for something, it is more painful to get it...and lose it.

It only takes a moment to know a secret, and when Rong Huang came to her senses, the first thing she did was to turn around and leave quickly.

Although she didn't know how deep Tong's feelings for Rong Ruo were, but since she had reached the point where she was willing to hurt herself for him, she couldn't help herself.For the emperor's woman, falling in love with other men is a matter of losing her head and even harming the whole family.Although Tong Shi won't hurt Ronghuang for the time being, she doesn't want Tong Shi to realize that she has guessed her secret.

Rong Huang thought all the way back to Yikun Palace, and was hugged full of people just after entering the palace.She had been thinking about how to report to Xiaozhuang about Concubine Yi just now, she couldn't help being surprised: "Your Majesty?"

"Well, who else would dare to hug you like this?" Xuan Ye smiled and seemed to be in a good mood. "Where did you go, and it's been so long since you came back?"

Being hugged by a teenage kid under the eyes of everyone, Rong Huang couldn't help being a little shy, pushed him lightly, and said in a low voice: "I'm going to see sister Yi. The emperor quickly let go of the concubine! So Many people are watching."

"Look? Who's watching?" Xuan Ye still refused to let go, and even turned his head to talk to his little follower Li Xu: "Hey, idiot, did you see that I'm holding Little Phoenix?"

Li Xu was stunned for a moment, then said in a low voice, "Wei Chen was blinded by the thunder just now, and didn't see anything..."

Xuan Ye smiled in satisfaction, bent slightly and rubbed Rong Huang's neck with his chin, which was as white and delicate as jade.He didn't let go until he made her laugh too, and while leading her into the inner room, he asked, "How is Concubine Yi?"

Rong Huang thought about it, and felt that Concubine Yi should not really want Kangxi's favor.But if even Kangxi doesn't value her anymore, I'm afraid the villains in the harem will bully her even more.So after thinking for a while, Rong Huang put away his smile on purpose, and said seriously: "Sister Yi's spirit has improved a lot, it's just that those palace people are too lazy, they need to beat and beat hard."

Kangxi was slightly taken aback, and said displeased: "It's really unreasonable, someone dares to bully my cousin?"

With a thought in his mind, Rong Huang suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly said: "The emperor calms down. The concubine thought that when the younger sister Yi concubine entered the palace, she only brought an old mother by her side, so it was inevitable that those new maids would not care. It is a concubine, and there are only two maids with her. Concubine Yi is sick now, and they will inevitably be too busy to take care of her."

Seeing the emperor nodded, Rong Huangfang continued: "The concubines are tired of being restrained by so many people, so it's better to give sister Yi two capable maids, so that those in Chengqian Palace don't care about sister Yi. This will not violate the palace rules and regulations, but also make sister Yi's life more comfortable."

The reason why the harem needs a concubine who can worry about it is because since ancient times, the emperor didn't like to take care of these trivial housework.Xuan Ye listened to Rong Huang's words, but he kept staring at Rong Huang's face endlessly, so his left ear went in and out of his right ear, and he probably heard that it was a way to get the best of both worlds, so he nodded: "It's good. , you can figure it out.”

Rong Huang was overjoyed when he heard the words, it's all over now, didn't Concubine Yi just say that she would not harm her?Then she will put two people in front of Concubine Yi to see how Concubine Yi treats them, so that she can see whether Tong's words are true or not.

Although she guessed that Mrs. Tong liked Rong Ruo, what if, what if it was deliberately made by Concubine Yi to show her, and wanted to relax her vigilance?Therefore, Rong Huang not only wanted to find someone by Tong's side in private, but he also couldn't let her go publicly.Moreover, sending two court ladies directly to Concubine Yi can also cover up Ronghuang's secret eyeliner...
