Harem: Biography of Concubine Qin

Chapter 321
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty has been wronged. Your Majesty has been recuperating in the palace since she woke up. These three people made a fuss, and they said a lot of disrespectful things..."

Bai Lu knelt on the ground in panic, it was the first time she heard the emperor speak to Chen Wenxin in such a tone.

Chen Wenxin glanced back at her, stopped her with his eyes, Bai Lu wanted to say more, but this time it was the emperor who spoke first.

"You still say that you are not guilty, just look at you, the palace people will know that even the young master is something that a slave can slander, so what else can't be done by your concubine Qin?" The emperor didn't look at Chen Wenxin , but looked up at the plaque in Yikun Palace.

Bai Lu was too frightened to say anything, she turned to look at Chen Wenxin, Chen Wenxin was also taken aback, she bit her lip and didn't speak.

After a long time, the emperor asked: "Why didn't you speak? Could it be that I made a mistake?"

"It's the emperor who made a mistake. There are causes and effects in the world. If Liu hadn't promised the three of them to come to our Yikun Palace to make trouble, how could Bailu speak ill of them?" Chen Wenxin didn't back down at all, she raised her head stubbornly Looking at the emperor, the emperor turned his head and didn't even want to look at her.

Liu promised that the three of them had never seen such a scene before, they were taken aback for a moment, and then they couldn't hide their laughter.

Wu, who was the most impatient, agreed, and when he heard Chen Wenxin's words, he snorted coldly, and hurriedly said, "Concubine Qin, please don't wrong the concubine, just now, the concubine just said that you are not good to the concubine, that's all. But you should always respect the empress dowager, who would have thought that the concubine Qin would call the guards and come here to belittle the concubines!"

Hearing her words, Bai Lu opened her eyes wide and scolded, "You are talking nonsense with your eyes open!"

"Presumptuous!" The emperor scolded angrily, and Bai Lu had no choice but to bow her head.

Chen Wenxin shook his head at Bai Lu, signaling her not to speak any more.Bai Lu was frightened, tears rolled in her eyes, but she really couldn't be wronged in front of the emperor, so she bit her lip and buried her head firmly in front of her chest.

The emperor turned around and glanced at Wu Ying, only to see that the woman had a superficial and smug smile on her face. These people have been in the palace for a long time, and if they were in normal times, they would never break into the palace of a concubine so recklessly.

He didn't do anything to Chen Wenxin in the harem, but it is a fact that the previous dynasty was dissatisfied with Chen Wenxin. These people will certainly not hear the news, and they will not easily get the Queen Mother's will. There must be someone behind them who ordered them The people in the palace are very well informed about the news of the previous dynasty.

Thinking about it, his eyes couldn't help but become dark, he gave Wu Xu a cold look, and said in a low voice: "Aifei said, have you been underestimated by the guards?"

Wu promised to be complacent looking at Chen Wenxin's embarrassment, how could he hear other meanings, when he heard the emperor's question, he wanted to add some more oil to the fire, so he bit his handkerchief and said: "Yes, the emperor will Make decisions for your concubines!"

She kept saying this, but it frightened Liu Xuying and Yingying, they rushed to pull her sleeves, but it was already too late.

The emperor's face became extremely gloomy in an instant, he turned to Chen Wenxin coldly and said: "Concubine Chen, who indulged the palace servants to wantonly mutilate concubines, was confined to Yikun Palace for three months, and maid Bai Lu mistakenly blocked her from committing crimes, and she was punished for three years. The people of Yikun Palace can't persuade the young master, so they will be fined for one year as a warning to others!"

Wu promised to be proud, but the emperor turned around and snorted coldly at her: "Promise Wu, the harem will be messed up, and I will die!"

Wu promised that the smile froze on her lips, and she looked at the emperor in disbelief: "Your Majesty, my concubine, my concubine has been wronged!"

"Ying promised, Liu promised to suffer, so he will be promoted to permanent presence." The emperor ignored her crying and said his will casually, and left with Zeng promised.

When the imperial guards dragged the ashen-faced Wu Xu away, she was still calling her two elder sisters who often lived to save her life, but those two elder sisters who often lived only cared about her own happy event and had left her behind.

It was night, Chen Wenxin was tossing and turning in bed.

"Master, it's already the third watch, go to bed quickly." Bailu was guarding outside, she was a little tired.

It's not because she was fined three years' salary, in fact, the rewards she has received for Chen Wenxin who has been with her for so many years are already enough for her to have no worries for the rest of her life.She was only worried about Chen Wenxin, today's incident clearly had nothing to do with Chen Wenxin, but the emperor still punished her.

As soon as the emperor left, Li Dequan brought people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs to seal the gate of Yikun Palace, and sent several teams of guards outside to completely surround the Yikun Palace.

Fortunately, although the emperor said to ground his feet, he did not prohibit others from visiting.

In the evening, he promised to come and brought some food. Mrs. Zhang also asked someone to come in and say that she would come to see the empress tomorrow.

But Chen Wenxin didn't see anyone, she laughed and didn't speak when she heard the news from outside, even she only ate half a bowl of porridge for dinner and said she was too sleepy to eat, but she was lying on the bed, and she didn't see her sleeping.

"Bai Lu, listen, is there someone screaming outside? Did Wu promise to die?" Chen Wenxin's weak voice came from inside. Bai Lu put on her clothes and entered the room with a candlestick in her hand. Sighed.

"Bai Lu, do you think Wu promised to die a miserable death?"

"Master, don't think about it. You promised to come at night and said that the emperor ordered Wu to commit suicide. She can scream like this." Bai Lu looked at Chen Wenxin worriedly: "Master, please don't burn yourself out. , Your Majesty, he..."

Chen Wenxin shook, she sat up and leaned against the head of the bed: "I know the emperor wanted to protect me, so he grounded me."

"what?"

"Today's incident is strange. The emperor just didn't come to see me once. How do those people know that the emperor doesn't want to see me? There must be someone behind them. The emperor ordered me to ground, but he wanted to send someone to protect me generously. We are Yikun Palace."

Chen Wenxin said slowly, she looked at the roof, and the intricate patterns on it gradually fascinated her eyes: "Bai Lu, tell me, it's not good for the women in the harem to live in peace like this, why do you always have to do this?" Fight me?"

"Master, this person, it's easy to go from frugal to extravagant, but difficult to go from extravagant to frugal. Once you have a good position, you naturally want better things, and you can't be satisfied." Bai Lu frowned, Chen Wenxin was always worried recently Yes, it's not good for your health.

"Today I saw those three people coming in, and when they went out, there were only two left, so I just expressed my feelings." Chen Wenxin felt that his chest was tight and uncomfortable, and he couldn't sleep, and he was awake and tired.

Telling Bai Lu about this, Bai Lu only told her not to worry: "The matter in the harem is just like this, my lord... Your lord should not think too much about it, the servant will go back outside tomorrow, and invite an imperial doctor to come and help her." You see a doctor."

The master and servant talked for a long time, and when it was almost dawn, they hurriedly fell asleep.

When Bai Lu came together, she said that Chen Wenxin was not feeling well, so she asked an imperial physician to come and take a look, but the word spread for ten days, and the imperial physician did not come. The Lord didn't come either, Bai Lu waited and waited, but her heart became cold.

"Your Majesty is still right. Tell me, those young masters were on good terms with your Majesty on weekdays, and they flattered you one after another. Now that your Majesty is in trouble, they can't even see their shadows." Bai Lu Grumble at Xi'er.

After these few days, everyone in the palace felt uneasy. The big maids and the little palace maids all intentionally or unintentionally approached the guards outside. All these white dews were seen in their eyes, they were restless.

"The same goes for those people. How does the empress treat them on weekdays? Now that the empress is a little downcast, they all want to put on their wings and fly out!" .

Xi'er sighed, and had no choice but to persuade: "My sister doesn't know something, it's not that the other sisters want to go outside, it's just that the emperor issued a foot restraint order, and the people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs became more and more difficult to handle their affairs. It’s raining, and it’s almost winter, but the charcoal fire hasn’t arrived yet.”

In previous years, it would have been as warm as a spring day in Yikun Palace at this time, but now it was chilly, making people's hearts cold.

"The sisters wanted to do some needlework to help out, but the embroidery was sent out, but the silver could not be returned. They were in a hurry, and the winter clothes were not sent down. There was no charcoal fire, and their hands were frozen, and they couldn't even help the mother make clothes. .”

Xi'er began to sigh as she spoke, she knew that many people in the palace really wanted to go out, but there were also many who were sincere for the sake of Concubine Qin.

Just say that Yingge, who bullied her in the past, everyone else wanted to leave, but she was the only one who made thick clothes from the good material she had hidden early, and gave it to the empress.

But Bai Lu has been upset recently, and she can't speak.

Hearing Xi'er's words, Bai Lu was stunned for a moment, a little puzzled: "How could this happen? The people outside are all the emperor's people, so you can't be short of your money, right?"

As far as the Ministry of Internal Affairs is concerned, it has always been like this, but the guards and nuns outside can't just play around with the wind like this.

"Who says it's not? The guards are not bad. As long as there is something sent in from outside, it must be handed over to the people inside, but she doesn't send some people."

Xi'er is talking about the mothers who are in charge of the maids outside. They often help the maids of the lords to sell some things outside to make up for it. They also collect some intermediate money to gamble. The mothers also know that the maids are hardworking, so it is very beneficial to think about it. not greedy.

But recently, I don't know what's going on, I only see things being sent outside, but nothing coming in.

"This...what the hell is going on..." Bai Lu frowned, she felt that there might be something in it...

Before the two of them finished speaking, a person suddenly broke in from outside!

"Why are you still talking here? Quickly take me to see Mistress Qin!" The man pulled off his cloak and looked at Xi'er anxiously.

Bai Lu couldn't help exclaiming: "Princess, why are you here!"
