Xiangmen Concubine: The Emperor's Abandoned Concubine

Chapter 352 Full Moon
On May 39th of the [-]th year of the Fengtian Dynasty, the prince had a full moon banquet.

Because the empress dowager was in the palace, she was physically inconvenient, and the principle of proximity, the prince's full moon banquet was held in the empress dowager's Renshou Palace.

The palace banquet has never been held in the bedroom of the concubine, let alone the bedroom of the empress dowager.And the prince's full moon banquet was actually held in the Renshou Palace, which shows the empress dowager's love for the prince.

Since ancient times, mothers are more expensive than children.If the prince is favored, the queen will naturally be favored.This queen has left the palace twice and returned to the palace twice. Up to now, there are only a handful of people in the harem who have seen the real face of the queen.

Emperor Fengkang actually tolerated this kind of empress all the time, not only did not blame him at all, he secretly took him back to the palace, and within three days after returning to the palace, he named the prince born by the empress the crown prince.

How can such a favor be explained in a few words?

The prince's full moon banquet, the ministers of civil and military affairs, princes and nobles all stretched their necks curiously. Before the protagonist came, they kept looking around and whispering.

While everyone was still whispering, the Empress Dowager, the guard of honor of the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager, the Emperor, and the Empress had already arrived.

There was a gentle and elegant smile on the face covered with traces of time. The Empress Dowager wore a gold-edged printed brocade dress, with majesty in her kindness and joy in her majesty.After all, she was old, and supported by a personal maid, she was the first to appear in the eyes of everyone.

The Empress Dowager seldom appeared at such a dinner party, or in other words, this was the first time that the Empress Dowager appeared in the eyes of everyone after she changed from empress dowager to empress dowager.

Next to the empress dowager is the empress dowager.The Supreme Emperor has been in bed for a long time because of entanglement, and his body is very thin.There are thin marks on the corners of the eyes, and there is a faint smile on the somewhat pale face.

Although it looked weak, but the majesty of the emperor was vividly displayed when the silence below.

The Empress Dowager wore an orthodox palace attire embroidered with flying phoenix and auspicious clouds in true red, wearing a pearl and jade phoenix crown on her head, and her clothes were matched with jadeite and jade.The corners of her mouth were slightly raised, and her face, which was already overwhelming, looked even more delicate, noble, and incomparable.

Elegant and elegant, luxurious and unparalleled.Every time he takes a step, the gold step shaker on the bun will make a ringing sound, corresponding to the chanting of the musicians' silk and bamboo orchestras.Like the water of the Tianhe River sliding down from the blue sky, with its gorgeous grace and majesty, people can only look at it from a distance.

The emperor, the empress and the prince came in together. The emperor held the prince in one hand and the empress in gorgeous palace attire with the other, with a charming smile on his face, a bit lazy and evil.

The queen is still the queen, wearing the veil that makes their hearts itch to lift, her eyes are as clear as water, and she is instantly glamorous.

As for the emperor, when his gaze fell from the crowd to the woman beside him, the depth in his eyes was replaced by tenderness and pampering.The corner of the mouth slightly raised, holding her hand, sharp-eyed people found that it was not a light handshake, but interlocking fingers.

If the prince's full moon banquet has already shocked everyone, it is far less shocked than seeing the emperor and queen coming in together at this moment.

There is nothing wrong with going in together. In public places, the emperor and the empress would go in and out together.But how can they not be shocked by such interlocking fingers.

After the ritual officer finished reporting, the protagonists here have already taken their seats.

What surprised everyone again was that at a glance at this dinner, the women in the harem, except for the empress and concubines of the emperor, were actually only the empress.

Everyone was puzzled. Logically speaking, all concubines in the palace should attend such a dinner party.Compared with Weiyang Palace, Renshou Palace is almost on par.

But at this moment, are there two people missing?

Everyone, look at me, I look at you, Concubine Qing and Concubine Yun, the two concubines of the emperor, why haven't they arrived yet?

During the dinner, Gu Qingyun kept winking at the empress dowager who was diagonally opposite and asked about Concubine Qing.How could Concubine Qing be late for such a palace banquet?
The Queen Mother thought about the reason why Concubine Qing didn't come, and felt an indescribable feeling in her heart.When the emperor was in the palace before, Concubine Qing was so arrogant and domineering that she almost ignored her.

It was fine before the Empress Dowager returned to the palace, but she was almost ignored.But in the end, I still fear that she is the queen mother.

But when the Empress Dowager returned to the palace, relying on the piece of meat in her belly, she dared to dictate to her, her arrogance to the extreme.

If it wasn't because the Empress Dowager was in the palace, if it wasn't because she was pregnant with the emperor's heir, if it wasn't because she was from the Gu family.

A concubine of the emperor, a favorite concubine, a favorite concubine, she has a thousand ways and ten thousand ways to make her die without a place to bury her.

After the miscarriage, she thought that Concubine Qing should know how to restrain her temperament, but she was disappointed. Her brainless younger sister still didn't know how to reflect, blindly thinking that she was above ten thousand people and that the entire harem was hers.

She didn't keep the emperor's heir, she cried and waited for the emperor to come back and let the emperor make decisions for her.There has been no movement in Yong'an Palace, the Empress Dowager just ordered the foot restraint, and there is no evidence of Concubine Yun's action, so there is nothing to do with Concubine Yun.

What's more, Fang's family is not an ordinary civil servant, but a family of scholars from generation to generation.

Concubine Qing tried her best, and her father also secretly asked people to put pressure on the Fang family, but with the support of the prime minister, it was not that simple to kill Concubine Yun.

The emperor's personal expedition to the northwest border has not yet returned to the imperial court, and the empress dowager, the empress dowager, comforted her, and the food and clothing were extremely pampered.

But Concubine Qing still didn't understand, if the Empress Dowager really cared for her and the concubine had a miscarriage, how could the Empress Dowager be so kind and let it go?

Although there is very little contact with the Empress Dowager, she also knows that the Empress Dowager does not like to participate in the affairs of the harem.But the concubine had a miscarriage, and the one who flowed away in her belly was the royal blood.

It seems that the thunder is furious, but she really wants to seek justice for the emperor's heir. How can Concubine Yun be just grounded at this moment?
Murdering the emperor's heir, no matter whether it is the real murderer or not, as long as there is suspicion, he can be directly pressed into the prison and directly interrogated by the Ministry of War.

It is impossible for the empress dowager of royal blood not to care, she should care more than anyone else.The investigation for three consecutive months did not yield any results, only one possibility, the power of the Fang family, and Fang Ziwei's means far exceeded their imagination.

Seeing his father's gaze falling here, Gu Ruoying smiled slightly, but there was a stern look in his eyes, signaling to his father to be safe and not to be impatient.

It would be good for Concubine Qing not to come on such an occasion, but with her domineering temperament, how could she bear seeing the emperor's affection for the empress?

It's fine to lose your own life, but if the entire Gu family is implicated, then they are the sinners of the entire Gu family.

Turning slightly sideways, Gu Ruoying whispered a few words to Jingzhi beside her.

Gu Qingyun here was already impatient, if it wasn't for the Queen Mother's constant frowning over there, he would have already asked questions.

Now that he is in such a position, with millions of soldiers in his hands, almost all the important gates of Jingling City are his cronies.Even if the emperor's class teacher returns to the court now, he will be very afraid of him.

When his patience was about to run out, a little palace maid over there came over, whispered a few words to a maidservant on the Gu family side, and quickly backed away.

The thick black brows were frowned, and the maid hurriedly approached the general's ear: "General, the empress dowager said that Concubine Qing is not feeling well and is still resting. The empress dowager also said that the general can't just make a small mistake and bring disaster on the one hand. "

Gu Qingyun's brows furrowed even tighter, his eyes jumped over the crowd and landed on the Empress Dowager.

Gu Ruoying nodded slightly, just in time to meet the eyes of the Supreme Emperor.The corners of her lips curled up slightly, and her smile became more graceful and gentle.
