Harem: Biography of Concubine Qin

Chapter 253 Eavesdropping
The emperor also chose a fine day to visit Nianxin Garden, the Chen family picked him up, accompanied by all the officials.

Among them, Chen Wenxin's Tingyu Pavilion and Chen Wenyi's Banished Star Residence are particularly appreciated.

It was also because of the blessing of the emperor that these courtiers were able to follow Chen Wenxin and their residence.

And those ministers who had already occupied a place in Nianxin Garden were even more delighted. The emperor came here in person. It seems that they are in the right team!
Chen Wenxin was the only concubine to accompany the tour to Xing Nian Xin Garden. Lady Zhang and the others heard that Nian Xin Garden was beautiful, so they all wanted to come and see it, but the emperor forbade it.

Chen Wenxin promised them that he would invite the concubines to go to Nianxin Garden together in another day.

Fortunately, it was only separated by a wall, and the emperor would not object to it.

When the emperor was tired from visiting the garden, he rested in the Ting Yu Pavilion. Some of the ministers could enter the house to sit, and some could only stand on the porch.

Others can only stand in the yard below.

Whether they were standing or sitting, the servants of the Chen family served tea very politely and served as well as possible.

This is what Chen Xihai meant.

Sure enough, these adults praised the garden for its beautiful scenery, and at the same time praised Chen Xihai for his good management of the family.

"Let's not talk about other things, just talk about Mr. Chen's family's generations, they are really good!"

In the eyes of the courtiers, Chen Wenyi was naturally the first to bear the brunt.

"General Wuji's bravery makes me ashamed, veteran."

He is a celebrity in front of the emperor, and it is always right to flatter him in front of the emperor.

"What's more, the concubine Qin has both virtue and appearance. Although she is a daughter, she has made great contributions to the Qing Dynasty!"

She rescued Sheng Jia during the southern tour, and won the math skills of the Western envoy in the court, and took the lead in donating the money that passed her life to supplement the military salary...

These are all great achievements.

The emperor also laughed and said: "Chen Qing's family is loyal and good, helping the emperor's career, the merits will last forever."

Chen Xihai stood up and cupped his hands and said: "The emperor has given me the prize. All the glory of the Chen family is bestowed by the emperor, and this house is also the emperor's grace. Therefore, I dare not enjoy it exclusively, and should share it with all the ministers."

"Since Aiqing has such a heart of unity, all the ministers will come to Nianxin Garden more often in the future. I also like it here."

The emperor has said this, isn't it blatantly expressing that you are about to form a party with Chen Xihai, and I hope you will form a party?

He also said he likes it here, so can the ministers say they don't like it...

All the ministers agreed one after another, and praised every child in the Chen family, and finally the focus was on Chen Wenli.

"I'm the Minister of the Ministry of War. I didn't expect that the soldiers attempted to rob the military rations a few days ago. I'm ashamed to say it, thanks to the fourth son of the Chen family."

Many people have heard about this matter, but they dare not say anything about it.

It is not uncommon for the Manchu Eight Banners to bully the Han Army Banner.

And there are a lot of unusual things in this matter, it doesn't look like an ordinary soldier fighting, but it looks like a conflict from above.

The Secretary of the Ministry of War told the story of how the Xianglan Banner garrison led troops to the Green Camp with the intention of robbing the army rations, and how Chen Wenli tactfully dealt with the Xianglan Banner garrison.

Of course, this Chen Wenli was Chen Wenxin disguised as a man.

Now all the ministers dared not answer the question, some of them who were bold could only praise Chen Wenli's intelligence, and did not dare to say anything else.

The emperor didn't let this one go, "At the foot of the emperor, such evil things as robbing the army rations happened, why didn't the military department report it?"

Hearing this, the Minister of the Ministry of War stood up and replied: "Because it is an attempted matter, I dare not disturb the emperor. In addition, General Chen is in charge of the green camp, and he doesn't want to pursue it, so I don't have a statement to report."

The emperor made a look of deep thought for a long time, and several emotions changed on his face.

First anger, then heartache, then admiration.

After this series of expression changes, the emperor let out a long sigh.

"Lan Xiang, it's really my humerus!"

This sentence is very emotional, the emperor once compared Nalan Pearl to his own hand, and he has never made such a comparison to any adult!
Based on the emperor's expression, he may think that Chen Wenyi puts the overall situation first, so he doesn't want to pursue the matter of robbing the army rations.

Although the Xianglan Banner is not directly led by the emperor, it is one of the eight full banners after all.

To punish the soldiers with the blue flag, it is inevitable that the ministers of Manchuria will be moved, and the emperor's face will also be hurt.

What's more, now is the time to use troops, so it is not appropriate to provoke such conflicts.

Thinking about it this way, Chen Wenyi's tolerance for humiliation is really admirable.

He is a third-rank Wuji general, if he wants to investigate, why can't he investigate the crime of guarding?

All the ministers understood what the emperor meant, and they all sighed, why is Chen Wenyi so stable and dignified at such a young age?
Chen Wenyi was not here, so the officials had no choice but to flatter Chen Xihai again.

"Master Chen is able to raise a son like General Chen, he is really a good parent!"

When it comes to Chen Wenyi, these adults always praise him a lot.

Who doesn't have a few daughters to marry?
Even for the daughter of the family, these adults would praise Chen Wenyi more.

Perhaps boasting and boasting, Chen Xihai can have an impression, and will come up and ask——

Sir, I heard that there is a daughter in your family who is of marriageable age?

These grown-ups were dreaming, and then looked at Nalan Mingzhu smiling like everyone was praising his son-in-law.

I can't help but curse in my heart, this old man is really shameless.

The emperor led his ministers to do ideological work, and it was naturally inconvenient for Chen Wenxin, a woman in the inner palace, to be there.

The emperor brought her just to make it easier for her to go home and have a look, nothing else.

She talked with her mother and sister-in-law Zeng in Zheng's house for a long time, and now she is promoted and has some prestige.

Apart from Concubine Tong Gui, the rest of the concubines in the harem get along well with each other, which makes Zheng very gratified.

She even vaguely mentioned the matter of having a child with Chen Wenxin.

In the eyes of people in this era, people can have children after the age of 15, so they are not too young.

From Chen Wenxin's point of view, she is now sixteen, and she still feels too young.

The medical conditions in the Qing Dynasty were not good. If you want to live longer, you should have children later.

She thought, what should I do?
But she has been in the palace for so many years, if she has nothing to show, will people misunderstand that she is infertile?
She and the emperor have always taken measures...

No matter what, you have to wait until you are 17 years old.

Chen Wenxin thought about it silently, but the question of giving birth to a child was a little embarrassing, so she found an excuse and came out of Zheng's room.

Seeing her coming out, the small table greeted her and said, "The emperor is still listening to Yu Pavilion, master, do you want to go there?"

"The emperor is leading the adults. I'm afraid that if I go, I won't be able to squeeze into the room."

The Ting Yu Pavilion is not big, and there are so many ministers following the emperor, they might not even be able to stand up.

She still doesn't want to join in the fun.

"Bai Lu, let's go to the Banished Star Residence and see what Second Brother is doing."

Bai Lu was naturally happy, but her face remained calm, and she replied, "Yes."

The emperor had Chen Xihai as the host to accompany the guests, and Chen Wenren as the company, so Chen Wenyi didn't like to join in the fun.

I think at this moment he is hiding in the exiled star.

Chen Wenxin entered the Banished Star Residence and made a silent gesture.

The serving servant also knew that Chen Wenxin and Chen Wenyi were very close brothers and sisters, so he snickered and didn't make any announcement.

She walked quietly to the corridor, but heard Chen Wenyi talking with a woman inside.

"Brother Lan Xiang, why did it become like this, why?"

Chen Wenxin listened carefully, it was Guo Luo Luo Mingyuan's voice.

Her voice was full of tears, "My Ama won't let me leave the house, he is afraid that I will come to you. I finally knocked out the servant who guarded me and ran out. Do you really want to drive me away? "

In the past, Mrs. Yigui and her were at odds in the palace, but it was a trivial matter for the empress and concubine to be jealous, and the relationship between the two families was still maintained.

Once Mrs. Yigui died, Guo Luoluo's family blamed Chen Wenxin for all the crimes, and the two families completely cut off contact.

That's why Guo Luo Luo Mingyuan was banned in the mansion.

Chen Wenyi's voice seemed very cold, "Second Miss, it's better to call me for my official position. Since your father won't let you leave the mansion, you should go back quickly."

When Guo Luo Luo Mingyuan saw him for the first time, because he didn't know his rank in the family, he randomly called him Brother Chen.

Later, after learning about the situation of the children of the Chen family, he changed his name to Second Brother Chen.

Now call him again.

This appellation seems to be approaching layer by layer, but in fact their relationship is getting farther and farther.

At least at the beginning, when Guo Luo Luo Mingyuan pestered Chen Wenyi, he was still willing to talk to her.

Ever since Chen Wenxin returned to the garden to visit her relatives and Guo Luo Luo Mingyuan climbed the wall of Tingyu Pavilion, Chen Wenyi became more and more indifferent to her.

He was as cold as a stranger he had never met.

She asked anxiously: "Is it because of Nalan Yulu? It was that time you met Nalan Yulu in the garden, and then you became more and more indifferent to me!"

"It's nothing to do with Miss Nalan. It's because you and my family have no relationship. I also told Miss very early on that I won't marry you. You come to Nianxin Garden to visit like this, it's not suitable for a lady's etiquette."

Guo Luo Luo Mingyuan yelled: "Is it because of Concubine Qin that she killed my sister? I don't mind, I really don't mind! As long as you don't drive me away, I won't hold grudges against Concubine Qin, nor will I Make my mother-in-law remember to hate the Chen family!"

"shut up!"

Chen Wenyi's voice sounded extremely cold, "When did Concubine Qin kill Yigui? Not to mention that Yigui committed suicide in fear of crime, the evidence that she murdered the prince and framed the concubine is solid. Don't let me hear you again from your mouth. Slander Concubine Qin."

Chen Wenxin rolled her eyes when she heard it outside, the people of Guo Luoluo's family were really wrong to the extreme, this Guo Luoluo Mingyuan showed the family style.

In the past, she felt that Guo Luo Luo Mingyuan pursued Chen Wenyi so bravely, which made her admire and admire him very much.

She didn't expect that she would be so indiscriminate between right and wrong, ignoring Yigui's time and time again framing her, and kept saying that she killed Yigui.

No one in this family knows!
