Harem: Biography of Concubine Qin

Chapter 243
When it comes to guards, Chen Xihai is a first-class guard, and the status of the Chen family is getting higher and higher in the court.

She believed that as long as she told Chen Xihai the news, he would be able to find out the guard who handled the box of rouge.

"This news is very useful, but I still need to think about whether it is useful or not."

It's not that she wants to think about it, it's that she is worried that the emperor will think about it.

Now that the DPRK and China are facing a war, the emperor may not wish to move Concubine Tong at the time of employment.

It doesn't matter if Concubine Tong is moved in the harem, but if Tong Guowei is moved in the previous dynasty, that would be a big deal.

Concubine Tong's demotion has already made Tong Guowei angry and dissatisfied. According to the emperor, he came in and did not cooperate with the emperor's proposition very much.

Although I dare not sing the opposite, it is still a bit awkward.

If it is found out that Concubine Tong is pretending to be a ghost and intentionally disturbing the harem, I am afraid that Tong Guowei will be even more disturbed.

Tong Guowei can do it alone, and the emperor can't ignore his henchmen anyway.

Some time ago, the emperor also said that he wanted to send Tong Guowei to inspect the northern border town.He has high prestige in the army and senior qualifications, so it is most appropriate to send him there.

Tong Guowei is the son of Tong Tulai. Tong Tulai is the founding hero of the Qing Dynasty. Although he has passed away long ago, his reputation is still alive.

This is also one of the reasons why the emperor was reluctant to touch Tong Guowei. Even if the emperor could suppress Tong Guowei's party members, he could not suppress those veterans who founded the country.

Although they were not Tong Guowei's party members, seeing Tong Tulai's son, who was also a veteran of the founding of the country, was rejected by the emperor, they naturally felt cold.

The emperor had to take care of the older generation's face.

So after finding out the evidence that Concubine Tong did this, she can't act rashly.

If it was purely for herself, she could of course go directly to Concubine Tong's palace to search without hesitation.

She and Concubine Tong are equal now, she has a title, Concubine Tong does not.

She has the right to assist the harem, but Concubine Tong does not.

Strictly speaking, her status is higher than Concubine Tong's.

Directly investigate the matter thoroughly and find out the real evidence, even if the emperor is unwilling, he will not be able to save Concubine Tong.

However, how could Chen Wenxin only think about herself?

What she cares more about is the emperor's home country and the smooth recovery of Taiwan.

So at this time, if you want to move Concubine Tong, you have to think twice.

The eldest mother was surprised and said: "Ms. Concubine Qin, this is a good time to completely defeat Concubine Tong. What are you waiting for?"

Chen Wenxin understands that for a traitor like the Great Nurse, of course he hopes that Concubine Tong will fall from power as soon as possible.

As long as Concubine Tong is still around, she is in danger of being found out for betrayal by Concubine Tong.

Then Concubine Tong will definitely not let her go.

Only when Concubine Tong completely loses her strength, or simply dies, can the grandma be safe.

In her heart, she despises the eldest mother, a person who betrayed the old master, and is still here to encourage her to completely defeat the old master?
It must be too unfeeling.

Since she was a child, she raised Concubine Tong. Could it be that she has no mother-daughter relationship at all?
This is also the reason why Chen Wenxin doesn't like these nuns in the palace. They are all old and used to seeing intrigues in the palace.

As he grows older, he has developed a heart of stone.

In addition to interests, there is no human affection.

Her face didn't move at all, she just smiled and comforted the grandma, "Don't be afraid, with my current status, can you still not save your life? Even if she finds out about your betrayal of Concubine Tong, I will I will also ask you to serve in Yikun Palace, or let you retire and return home directly."

Grandma felt better when she heard this, she forgot that now Chen Wenxin is more noble than Concubine Tong.

She has the right to assist the harem, so what's so difficult about protecting a nanny in the harem?
No matter how vicious Concubine Tong is, it's impossible not to report it, and just use lynching to kill her, right?
"It's just Concubine Qin, why don't you take this opportunity to eradicate Concubine Tong?"

The eldest mother is still unwilling, because Concubine Tong is not dead, she is having trouble sleeping and eating.

It started when she delivered the first message to Chen Wenxin, no, it started when she accepted a large bag of silver reward sent by Chen Wenxin.

——She wished that Concubine Tong would die sooner.

Only when Concubine Tong died, no one would pursue her betrayal.

Chen Wenxin stared at her with a slight smile on his face, and ice had already formed in his eyes.

"My palace has its own reasons for doing things. I don't need to worry about it."

The coldness in her eyes seemed to be warning the eldest mother, I am the master, you are the slave.

What you said just now is beyond the bounds.

The eldest mother moved half of her buttocks down the embroidered pier, knelt down and pleaded guilty: "This old slave has lost his head, and this old slave is also concerned about it, so he will be confused. Please forgive me."

"Eldest Nurse, as long as you do your part well, I will never treat you badly."

Chen Wenxin has always been trustworthy in his words, and he is also known to be kind to the servants, so the eldest mother naturally believes it.

She said her farewell and left with a thousand thanks.

"Concubine Tong, Concubine Tong, you are really enough to give me problems."

Chen Wenxin looked at the back of the eldest mother who disappeared into the night, and muttered to herself.

"Master, what did you say?"

Bai Lu came up from behind, holding some fresh snacks.

The dim sum was hot, and it looked like it had just been baked.When served at one end, the room is filled with the sweet aroma of pastries.

Her mind was quickly diverted, and she hurriedly said: "Why did the small kitchen make pastries tonight? I'm not afraid that the taste is too delicious to attract greedy ghosts."

Bai Lu put the food plate on the table, and carefully took out the plates with one hand.

"Master was reading a book just now, and he said that he would wait for the grandma to come. The servant thought that the grandma must be late. The master must be hungry, so I asked the small kitchen to make more fresh pastries."

She made another bowl of thick milk tea, "The milk tea is freshly brewed, and the temperature is just right, master, try it."

These pastries are all new tricks, such as this black and white one, which is actually made into a small shape of Tai Chi Eight Diagrams.

"You can tell if you like it or not!"

Before she ate it, she scolded, "Cakes are all about their appearance, so what good taste can they make?"

In her opinion, it is better to look ugly, as long as it tastes good.

Even so, she picked up a piece and took a light bite.

"Master, does this taste good?"

Bai Lu smiled, she seemed to know that the Tai Chi shaped pastry was delicious.

Chen Wenxin narrowed her eyes slightly, "Okay, Bai Lu, did you steal it before me?"

Bai Lu couldn't laugh or cry, "When did this servant dare to do this? It was the little eunuch in the kitchen who accidentally dropped a piece of the plate when he was carrying the plate. Fu Guier took the fat thief to the kitchen to find something to eat, and the fat thief rushed up when he saw it Hold it in your mouth, and your eyes will glow after eating!"

The fat thief is also a connoisseur of food, he eats it until his eyes shine, it must be delicious.

It turned out that the fat thief ate in front of her.

Chen Wenxin sighed and said: "The fat thief is a bad dog. It's because the emperor and I didn't give him a good name. He was raised in the palace with gold and jade, but he still looks like a poor ghost who can't eat enough!"

Bai Lu couldn't help covering her mouth and laughing straight away, not to mention, the description of a fat thief like a poor ghost is too apt.

No matter how much delicious food is given to him on weekdays, he is always not enough.

Chen Wenxin was afraid that he would be too fat, so he asked Fu Guier to give him less food.

Now it's all right, the fat thief goes out for a walk, he even wants to eat the grass leaves in the imperial garden.

And according to Fugui'er, it was to the point where he refused to leave no matter how much he ate.

She simply didn't want to admit that this guy was a dog raised by her.

With such a virtue, how can one guess its owner?
The emperor always likes to tease her with fat thieves, saying that if there is a master, there must be a dog.

She handed a piece to Bai Lu, "Try it too, it tastes good when it's hot."

After Bai Lu declined, Chen Wenxin simply let her sit down, and made a bowl of milk tea for her to drink.

"There is no one else here, you sit and I will talk to you."

Seeing her saying this, Bai Lu no longer declined.

"The thing about Yongshou Palace's pretending to be a ghost was indeed done by Concubine Tong, and the eldest mother can be a witness. There is also physical evidence, which is a box of red rouge that came in from outside the palace."

Bai Lu looked at her expression, seeing that she didn't show any sign of joy.

Since it is known that it is Concubine Tong, and there are some witnesses, isn't this a good thing?

"Master doesn't want to catch Concubine Tong's crime?"

"Of course I want to. It's just for my own selfishness, which makes it difficult for the emperor to control the court. That's a small loss."

The emperor is only 30 years old, so he is still a young man.

He is not yet a veteran in government affairs, and he has to rely on the ministers.

Sending off Concubine Tong at this time will hurt the hearts of Tong Guowei's veteran officials, and it will definitely have an impact on the emperor's government.

Therefore, Concubine Tong can't let her go for the time being.

Not only can't she be released, but she has to hide this matter for her, so that Concubine Hui or others can't find out.

Thinking about this makes me feel disgusting, obviously Concubine Tong has always regarded her as an enemy and has done a lot of bad things.

Concubine Tong wants to frame her, can she do it better?

Don't let her get hold of it anymore!
She finally caught Concubine Tong's handle. Not only could she not show it clearly, but she had to cover it up for her.

What is this called!
Seeing her angry face, Bai Lu put down the pastry, trying to comfort her.

Unexpectedly, Chen Wenxin took a bite of the Tai Chi cake viciously, and the sesame seeds in the cake flew out, drawing an elegant arc in the air.

A shiny black sesame seed fell in the middle of the round table.

Chen Wenxin's face turned ugly.

Bai Lu lowered her head, getting lower and lower, her shoulders shrugged.

Chen Wenxin's complexion became even uglier.

"What's so funny? Look up."

She ordered Bai Lu seriously, and Bai Lu raised her head uncontrollably, with tears in her eyes.

——This is really, really funny hahaha!
Seeing this, Chen Wenxin couldn't help laughing out loud, Bai Lu's eyes were red from holding back, like a rabbit!

Bai Luyuan couldn't hold back any longer, hearing Chen Wenxin's laughter again, it was as if a whole string of firecrackers had exploded.

The sound of laughter came from the dormitory, and the palace guards outside the door were startled and listened carefully.

In addition to Chen Wenxin's voice, there was also Bai Lu's voice.

It's strange, Aunt Bai Lu has always been steady, how could she laugh like this?
"Come here."

Everyone was wondering, only listening to Chen Wenxin's call from inside.

"I won't eat this Tai Chi Cake anymore, I will reward you to eat it."
