Chapter 28

The virtuous man drank most of the blood swallow rewarded by Concubine Qi with a normal expression, and handed the bowl to the servant girl who was guarding her side, and thanked Concubine Qi in a voice that could not make anyone feel emotional:
"Thank you, Ma'am, for the drink."

Concubine Qi saw that the virtuous man was not at all moved by her threat, she couldn't help feeling bored, her face turned colder, and ordered the maid to put the bowl into the food box, and then expressed her concern to the virtuous man with a smile on her face After speaking, he stood up as tall as when he came.

The maidservants and eunuchs of Shuiyun Palace all knelt down to send them off respectfully.

When Concubine Qi walked to the door, she was about to step out, but she suddenly turned back, stood still in front of Tong Wanrou who was kneeling on the ground, and said condescendingly:

"Yo, who is this? It's a really good baby."

The virtuous person also came behind Concubine Qi, and replied with a blessing body: "Go back to your mother, she is the sister-in-law of my concubine's natal family. The former son and concubine have already played the Ming sage, please invite someone from your natal family to come to the palace to accompany her, and it will be her."

After listening to the virtuous person, Tong Wanrou kept her sense of propriety, kowtowed to Concubine Qi and said:

"Slave Tong Jia's gentleness, please refer to Concubine Qi, Concubine Qi, Wanfu Jin'an."

After hearing Tong Wanrou's words, Concubine Qi couldn't help a sneer on her face: "Ha, she's a sweet talker."

After saying this, she knelt down herself and raised Tong Wanrou's face. Tong Wanrou was so nervous that she even forgot to breathe, and stared stupidly at the not-so-beautiful, but luxurious and graceful figure in front of her. A woman with a Mongolian-style ox horn bun is full of ornaments, shining golden.

"Hmph, you're lucky to be able to sleep with such a face in the palace!"

After finishing speaking, she put Tong Wanrou's face away, stood upright by herself, and said with a smile to the virtuous person in front of her, "Don't even the palace and the bed are taken away by someone, that would be self-inflicted, and it would be ridiculous."

When Tong Wanrou heard Concubine Qi's words, she was so frightened that she was sweating profusely, so she had to bury her body even lower. She only listened to the virtuous person but still looked as calm as water, Concubine Qi said:

"The concubine can't understand what the concubine Qi is saying, but since Wanrou is the concubine's sister-in-law, the concubine will certainly urge her to abide by her duty and abide by the palace rules."

Concubine Qi snorted coldly again, and then boldly led her people out of Shuiyun Palace.

After seeing her leave, the virtuous man's personal nurse hastily asked someone to open the window for ventilation, and then brought an empty basin, and said to the virtuous man:
"Your Majesty, spit out that filth quickly."

Only then did the virtuous man turn cold, and as the nanny walked up to the main seat, she began to vomit. Tong Wanrou stood up with everyone in the palace. She stood by the door and watched the virtuous man vomit. Uncomfortable, his face was as pale as paper, and he suddenly felt very distressed.

It is said that the imperial palace is so good and so rich, but only those who really come in know what kind of life the people in this palace live.

On the way being led to the residence, Tong Wanrou frowned, thinking about the meaning behind all this.

In fact, it's not that she doesn't understand what Concubine Qi means by doing this. After all, Fu Heng's sister is pregnant with the emperor's eldest son. Kind of, if this baby is born safely, then the virtuous person will probably be more expensive because of the eldest son of the emperor. At that time, it will not be that everyone in the palace will be taller than her, but that she will be taller than everyone else in the palace. Go high.

In this world of stepping on the low and praising the high, many people are unwilling to let the virtuous and noble take advantage of this opportunity to rise to the top, that's why the concubine Qi came to make trouble earlier.

Tong Wanrou believes that Concubine Qi is definitely not the first one to bully a virtuous person, one can tell a thing or two by seeing the virtuous person's attitude of resignation, Tong Wanrou only now remembered what the scent that came out of Concubine Qi when she entered the door was sandalwood, extremely Intense sandalwood scent.

It would be fine for ordinary people to smell this fragrance, but it has a great impact on pregnant women. Therefore, after squatting for such a long time, the virtuous man began to turn pale. After Concubine Qi left, the personal nurse called People open the windows in the temple in order to disperse that smell.

As a concubine of the emperor, a noble person is not as good as an ordinary woman when she is pregnant. , then the higher-ups will use this as an excuse to suppress her even more.

Thinking about it this way, the only rule for living in the palace is actually forbearance.I know that you have evil intentions, but I still bear with it.

Tong Wanrou felt very distressed when she thought about how noble people lived in such an environment where they could not be said or opposed.Thinking of his elder sister Tong Yurou, when she was a nobleman, was she framed and despised like this?

How sad would my mother-in-law and Fu Heng be if they knew that my sister lived such a miserable life in the palace.

They are different from the Tong family. As long as their daughter enters the palace to earn face for the family, the Tong family doesn't care so much about other things. Therefore, even if they know that Tong Yurou's life in the palace is not good, they are still in the palace after the death of the first emperor. When the middle-aged woman had a chance to choose to stay or leave, she made the decision to stay for Tong Yurou without hesitation, asking Tong Yurou to exchange the beauty of the past [-] years for the reputation of the insignificant Tong family's heroic daughter.

Mammy opened a door and said to her:

"Auntie, the nobleman told you that you will live here from now on. This is the side hall in Shuiyun Palace second only to the main hall. It is surrounded by the lake on both sides. There is a bedroom, a study room, and a living room. I will discuss it later. I will ask someone to bring all the things in charge of the office to you, and there are a few aunts who specialize in professors who will come to guide you, please rest assured."

Tong Wanrou wrote down all her words, nodded to her, and said:
"Yes, it's time for Lao Mama."

After the nanny retired, two more maidservants came to her to report, saying that the virtuous man specially asked them to take care of her daily life, for fear that she would have some discomfort in the palace.

Thinking of what the virtuous man had suffered before, but now she has not forgotten to take care of her sister-in-law, Tong Wanrou couldn't help being moved, but hesitated, whether to tell her mother-in-law and Fu Heng, what her sister suffered in the palace.

With a fulfilling study life, Tong Wanrou has no chance to take care of other things for the time being.

It has been four or five days since she came to Shuiyun Palace. She is learning new things every day and understands the affairs of each palace. Except for paying respects to the virtuous person every morning and evening, she spends all the rest of her time there. Study in the side hall where I live.

Although a palace is so big, there are really many things to manage.

From the arrival of personnel, to the application, the basic necessities of everyone in the palace, the duty time of the maids and eunuchs, and the climate and temperature in the palace, etc., all these trivial matters have to be arranged by her hands. She is completely in charge of the lives of noble people, what to eat, how much to eat, what to wear, and how much to wear, all of which can only be completed by her giving instructions to the maids in advance.

In the beginning, Tong Wanrou couldn't take care of her at all. She was busy every day like a spinning top that could never stop. While spinning dizzily, she couldn't find the way forward. However, people were forced out by the environment, and she was slacking off outside the palace. The brain that has been waiting for a long time is completely opened in this water cloud palace.

She began to be very orderly, arranging everything in a very orderly manner, from the daily life of the nobles to the small snacks between the palace servants, she knew everything about it like the palm of her hand.

The virtuous man took her progress into his eyes, and although he didn't talk to her much every day, Tong Wanrou could feel that the virtuous man's pair of heroic eyes stayed on her for a little longer, as if with admiration and encourage.

This change made Tong Wanrou, who was struggling alone, feel a little bit of warmth. After all, she had no relatives in the palace. Want to be recognized by those close to you.

Soon, ten days passed.

In these ten days, the emperor only came to visit the virtuous person once, just sat down in a hurry, and then left, but the rewards for this visit were quite a lot, it took Tong Wanrou a long time to check and check with the people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs Recorded in the ledger.

On the night of Tong Wanrou's 11th day in the palace, she personally served the virtuous person to fall asleep, and told the palace servants on duty to take good care of her. Then, holding a candle, she walked around the Shuiyun Palace to make sure there was nothing unusual. Back to his side hall.

After taking a shower, I fell asleep.

However, while sleeping in a daze, she suddenly heard a very strange sound, which woke her up from the dazed state, and looked around the empty palace sleepily, but didn't notice anything unusual.

Then he lay down and went to sleep again, but as soon as he closed his eyes, he heard that strange sound again, this time, the sound seemed to be closer, like a woman's cry, miserable and mournful, It's creepy to hear in the middle of the night.

Boldly, she lit the candle, Tong Wanrou put on a coat and went out to have a look.

Seeing that there was no abnormality outside the main hall, the gatekeepers even knelt by the gate and dozed off. After they came out, the crying sound ceased to exist.

Tong Wanrou took a deep breath, thinking that she had been under too much mental pressure these days, and then she heard the strange voice, thinking that since nothing happened, she would not pick things up, so she turned around——

But a pale moqing face suddenly appeared in front of her, as if standing behind her long ago, waiting for her to turn around, with seven holes bleeding from the pale face, looking like a tragic death.

Tong Wanrou's eyes widened, she felt that the pores on her whole body were opened, her scalp was numb, she couldn't hold back, and screamed loudly:
"what--"
