Rebirth Nunnery

Chapter 128
The current empress of the Wu Dynasty, surnamed Shen and surnamed Liu Jiao, came from the famous Shen family.

The Shen family was very prestigious in the Wu Dynasty. There were three prime ministers in the Shen family, and many people held important positions in the court in each generation.

Shen Liujiao is not the first wife of the Shen family, but also the only first wife, her status is extremely noble.

After the emperor ascended the throne, Shen Liujiao and many beautiful women were selected to enter the palace, but she stood out from the crowd and was the most outstanding.

It's a pity that the emperor had Gu Qingcheng by his side at that time, so he didn't give her a second look at all.

Although Shen Liujiao became the queen in the end, she lost the emperor's heart from the very beginning, and she had no title of queen, but she was not favored at all.

The queen's position exists in name only.

Since the empress miscarried her four-month-old child many years ago, she has been staying in this nunnery, hardly ever going out.

But now, who in the entire palace still remembers her as the queen?

Shen Liujiao stood up, put away the string of beads in her hand respectfully, and then turned to look at Qiaolan.

"Your Majesty, our Qingfeng Palace should have the highest quota in the entire imperial palace, but now, that Concubine Wan has gone too far and deducted nearly half of our quota..."

Qiaolan has a submissive temperament, but she still can't help being out of breath.

Their Qingfeng Palace didn't have many people in the first place, but now they even have to deduct their quotas, so even if Concubine Wan is favored, she can't treat the queen so lightly, right?

When Shen Liujiao heard the words, she just said "hmm" and didn't care.

Ever since she asked people to build this nunnery, she has understood that these external objects are superfluous.

"Concubine Wan is so arrogant and spoiled, the empress can't keep swallowing her anger!"

Qiaolan would say such words several times a day, but the queen seldom responded.

But today is different.

"Qiaolan, how is my father and brother now?" the queen asked suddenly.

Qiaolan was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "Master Shen is going to resign as a scholar of the Imperial Academy and return to his hometown. As for Mr. Shen, he just came back from his post. Do you want to see him?"

Shen Liujiao's father's name is Chongwen, who is very prestigious in Qingliu; and her elder brother, Shen Liuyan, was sent to Luzhou as the magistrate a few years ago. Must be able to hold important positions.

And at this time, the heavy proclamation to return home is precisely to pave the way for his son.

"No need, father is old, it's inconvenient for him to enter the palace, it's better than sending someone to Shen's residence to greet him later."

Shen Liujiao's attitude is very indifferent, these years she stayed in Qingfeng Palace without leaving home, and even her natal family was rarely seen.

Her biological mother, Lord Shen's concubine has long since passed away, apart from Shen Liuyan who is also a concubine, there are only a few concubine heirs in Shen's residence, and they don't have much friendship with her.

"By the way, empress, Concubine Wan recently sent another court lady to His Majesty's side, and she has been promoted to a beauty. It is said that this person is extremely arrogant in the harem." Qiaolan suddenly thought of something, and said again.

Shen Liujiao's eyes flashed, and a sarcastic sneer appeared at the corner of her mouth.

"How can she have other means? Lin Wanqing just wants to show her magnanimity, so as to set off my incompetence as a queen."

"Then empress..." Qiaolan asked tentatively.

"Look up the background of the palace lady, and if necessary, knock on it."

Shen Liujiao's brows did not move, she casually picked up the herbal tea on the table and took a sip, her expression extremely calm.

"I, Shen Liujiao, am the master of this harem. After the first palace, no matter how arrogant she is, Lin Wanqing, she can only be inferior to me!"

……

The atmosphere in Yunyuefang was eerie.

Since Lu Yuer came here and had a conflict with Ding Jiayi, the entire Yunyuefang people quickly divided into two factions.

Most people felt that Lu Yu'er was in favor and Ding Jiayi was no match. Therefore, in just a few days, people around her began to keep their distance from her.

Ding Jiayi didn't care about this, but Qin Wanxia couldn't bear to be annoyed, and almost had conflicts with others.

On this day, Ding Jiayi had just returned from Yunliu Pavilion, and just stepped into the side hall, when there was a quarrel in his ears.

Pushing open the door, I saw Qin Wanxia, ​​Xiao Ding and others standing under the porch, confronting a group of court ladies and eunuchs.

His eyes swept over those people, but they were all unfamiliar faces, Ding Jiayi was secretly vigilant.

"what happened?"

Seeing Ding Jiayi, Qin Wanxia and Xiao Ding couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and hurried forward to explain.

"My lord, these people suddenly broke in and slandered you for stealing valuables, it's really hateful!" Qin Wanxia said, but she still didn't forget to give those people a hard look.

The leading eunuch coughed lightly, and said expressionlessly: "Our family was ordered by Lu Meiren to search for female officer Ding Wan. A few days ago, a nine-sparrow hairpin bestowed by Lu Meiren disappeared."

When Ding Jiayi heard the words, he didn't need to guess to know that Lu Yu'er was playing tricks in secret, so he couldn't help sneering in his heart.

"By Lu Meiren's order? When did Lu Yu'er rule this harem? If she says a word, I will open the door for you to interrogate?"

Ding Jiayi straightened his face, his momentum suddenly increased, and he overwhelmed the other party in an instant.

The eunuch in Tsing Yi was only a fifth-rank official. Although he was one rank higher than Ding Jiayi, he actually didn't have much power in this palace.

Seeing Ding Jiayi's momentum, he couldn't help being startled, and took a step back subconsciously.

When he realized it, his face flushed red, he didn't know if it was from anger or embarrassment.

"Do you still dare to resist? You are just a little sixth-rank female official, how dare you be arrogant in front of Lu Meiren?! You really don't know what to do, come here! Come rush in!"

"I see who dares?!"

Ding Jiayi stared coldly and shouted sharply.

The eunuch in Tsing Yi sneered, and looked sideways at Ding Jiayi, with a hint of obscenity flashing in his eyes.

"What? Are you guilty?"

"What a joke! Why should I be guilty? Just because you are a little eunuch, you want to search my room?" Ding Jiayi didn't pay attention to the other party at all, looked up and down, and felt as if he had seen it somewhere before, "Are you Qinghua Palace?"

Seeing that Ding Jiayi recognized him, the eunuch couldn't help but show a smug expression on his face.

"You know you're afraid? Haha... That's right, our family belongs to Empress Wanfei of Qinghua Palace! If you are sensible, get out of the way! Otherwise, our family will make you unable to eat!"

Ding Jiayi finally understood why these eunuchs and maids could break into his side hall.

Secretly scanning the surroundings, she did not see the eight maids who were rewarded by Concubine Wan. Ding Jiayi knew it and snorted secretly.

She must not let these people in.

Lu Yu'er has been displeased with her all the time, and has long wanted to deal with her, and Ding Jiayi has long known this.However, what Ding Jiayi didn't expect was that Lu Yu'er could climb up to Concubine Wan and act on the power of Concubine Wan.

Those eight palace maids must have been in touch with her long ago. Of course, she has never done the so-called stealing valuables. However, I am afraid that those eight people have already hidden things in the side hall.

As long as someone finds out from her side hall, she will be speechless.

Ding Jiayi's thoughts changed, his heart changed, and he took a step forward, facing the eunuch with cold eyes.

"Even if you belong to Qinghua Palace? Unless there is a warrant from Concubine Wan, otherwise, don't even think about taking a step forward!"

Ding Jiayi's aura was strong, Qin Wanxia and the others couldn't help feeling a little bit worried when he said this, but now, if they can't see the ghost in it, they will be blind.

"What your lord said is that the harem is also governed by the rules. Our lord is also a sixth-rank female official, unless it is ordered by the workshop owner or some empresses." Qin Wanxia said angrily.

Xiao Ding on the side interjected nonchalantly: "Maybe, these guys are pretending to be in the name of Concubine Wan! Concubine Wan is very appreciative of our adults, how can they tolerate such nonsense?" People slander us adults?"

"you you?!"

The eunuch in Tsing Yi almost spat out blood in anger.

Ding Jiayi felt impatient, waved the eunuch away and walked into the house.

"Xiao Ding, close the door!"

Xiao Ding let out a "hey", and grinningly took out a latch from the back of the door, and weighed it up and down. Although there was a smile on his face, the smile made people feel chills down the spine.

This little Ding is fearless, he was expelled to Yunyuefang because he offended him, but now he follows Ding Jiayi, so Ding Jiayi is naturally the first in everything.

As for the consequences, he doesn't have to worry about that.
