Harem: Biography of Concubine Qin

Chapter 54 Calm down
"It's all because the concubine is confused. I neglected Concubine Qin yesterday. The concubine Qin naturally wouldn't instruct Bai Lu to steal. This little hoof must have stole Guanyin from the heart!"

Chen Wenxin originally thought that the matter was over, but she didn't expect Yipin to bite Bailu until she couldn't bite her, and immediately said with a smile to Yipin: "Yongshou Palace was still a mess yesterday until the end of the canonization ceremony, maybe Yipin doesn't know about it? When we returned to the palace, Yikun Palace was already in order."

Yipin didn't know what she meant by saying this, and didn't know how to respond for a moment.

Chen Wenxin said again: "I'm afraid Yipin's palace servants are too inattentive. They told Yipin to carry the dragon fetus on his back for a whole day, and he couldn't rest well when he returned to the palace. Such a servant lost Yipin's son in the chaos. It's unknown if Guanyin framed Bailu again."

She said to the emperor again: "Since the imperial concubine insists on sending Bai Lu to the Department of Punishment for interrogation, the concubine dare not take sides. The servants of Yongshou Palace are so loose, they still cannot get rid of their ties, will the emperor send them to the Department of Punishment together?"

The emperor nodded, "That's reasonable. Yipin's body is heavy, how can the servants who serve her be so inattentive?"

Ping'er next to Yipin was so frightened that she knelt down when she heard this, and even asked the emperor to show her mercy.

The palace had already been tidied up before, and the slaves just moved the things used by the master there, and it didn't take much trouble at all.

Yipin's complexion was also ugly, naturally she couldn't say that the Yongshou Palace was so busy yesterday, was it a trick for Bai Lu deliberately?
If all the servants around her were sent to the Department of Punishment, if they were not kept together, they would be unable to carry the sentence and leak the news.

"Your majesty, my concubine is pregnant, so I can't do without servants..."

Concubine Yi's ability to pretend to be pitiful is far worse than Ding Chang's. Not to mention that the emperor is indifferent, even Chen Wenxin feels embarrassed for her.

"You have something to say, so what do you think?" the emperor asked impatiently.

"Bai Lu was trained by Concubine Qin, there is probably no such thing." Concubine Yi kicked Ping'er on the shoulder kneeling on the ground, and cursed: "It's all concubines instigated by this little hoof, it must be Bai Lu Stolen Guanyin."

Concubine Tong put the blame on Yipin, and Yipin put the blame on Ping'er.

It's really big fish eating small fish, and small fish eating dried shrimps.

The emperor gave her a blank look, "Concubine Yi is still so restless during her pregnancy, she will be fined to go back to Yongshou Palace and be confined for three months. Concubine, don't trust other people's words so easily that there will be disharmony in the palace."

The emperor only fined Concubine Yi a little, not Concubine Tong, it was for her face and for the emperor's.

Last time the concubine was punished for the matter of the fourth elder brother, if she is punished again now, outsiders will say that the emperor's harem is not peaceful.Tong Guowei is desperately going to invite An Zhezi again to speak well of Concubine Tong Gui, these emperors don't want to see it.

The emperor has spoken, and the matter is over.

Chen Wenxin kept a cold face without saying a word, and only saluted Concubine Tong hastily when she left.

After Concubine Tong Gui and Yi Pin left Yikun Palace with many palace attendants, she finally couldn't help but relax.

"Your Majesty, fortunately you are here."

When she recalled Concubine Tong's aggressive tone, she felt scared.If it wasn't for a coincidence that the emperor had left the Phoenix Seal with her earlier, Concubine Tong Guifei would have to be charged today.

"If something happened to me in the previous dynasty, or if I went on tour, how would you deal with it?" The emperor wanted to guide her to think of ways to protect herself.

"I used the seal of the phoenix to scare her, pretending to be a tiger, and saying that the emperor ordered me to take charge of the harem so that she would not be presumptuous. That's what I did just now."

She hurriedly pleaded guilty to the emperor, "The emperor didn't tell me to take charge of the harem, I did so out of necessity. The emperor won't blame him, will he?"

It was a very ambiguous act for the emperor to give her the phoenix seal. He neither explicitly gave her the right to assist the harem, but also asked her to approve the papers of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Isn't this managing the harem?
After hearing this, the emperor laughed and said: "That's how I gave you the phoenix seal, you did the right thing."

With the emperor's encouragement, Chen Wenxin breathed a sigh of relief.

"But even with the phoenix seal, Concubine Tong Gui can't touch me, she still wants to touch the people around me." Chen Wenxin looked at Bai Lu who was standing aside with her head bowed, and sighed with a bitter face.

"Bai Lu, you sometimes stumble. You shouldn't have entered the warehouse of Yongshou Palace yesterday, and someone caught you."

Bai Lu's eye circles were red, she just lowered her head and said in a muffled voice, "It's not good to be a servant, I almost framed my master."

The master did not ask her from the beginning to the end whether she stole the gift of Guanyin, which showed that the master completely believed that she would not do such a thing.

Things got so big that they even offended Concubine Tong Gui.The master just complained to her in this way, neither beat her nor punished her.

Hearing Bai Lu's muffled voice, Chen Wenxin thought she was frightened, so she comforted her, "Okay, okay, I know you're frightened. You don't need to serve today, go down and rest, and ask Bai Fei and the others to make a bowl of medicine." The soup will shock you."

Hearing this, Bai Lu was even more amazed, and knelt down on the ground with a plop.

"The servant girl acted carelessly, causing people to seize the opportunity to deal with the master. If the master is injured in the slightest today, the servant girl will be irreparable, so how can I dare to feel wronged!"

Li Dequan stood behind the emperor, looking at the relationship between the master and the servant, feeling extremely moved.

Whoever becomes a servant of the Concubine Qin is truly blessed for eight lifetimes.

The emperor glanced at Bai Lu lightly, "You are a good slave, I can't blame your master for protecting you with all his life."

Bai Lu didn't expect that she caused a disaster, the master not only didn't blame her, but even comforted her.Even the emperor praised her.

She kowtowed vigorously to Chen Wenxin and the emperor, and then reluctantly withdrew.

The emperor said: "You treat the slaves so well. I was only worried that you spoiled them and pampered them to the point of lawlessness. I didn't expect you to be blessed too. You will repay the slaves you are with."

"Not everyone knows how to repay their kindness."

A slave can be loyal, it also depends on whether the master has a future.If the master promoted himself, let alone the slave, would the slave still be loyal?
Bai Lu took a good lead, starting from her side, the four court ladies were all loyal.

Even Bai Shuang, who was fond of stealing, raping and playing tricks in Chuxiu Palace at the beginning, was influenced by Bai Lu to be loyal to her.

The small chair is a variable, and the small table is in charge of dealings alone, and the more you rely on it, the more faithful it will be.

Fugui'er only raised fat thieves and did not interfere with the affairs around her.But he was picked out by the emperor to give to Chen Wenxin, and he knew Chen Wenxin's position in the emperor's heart best, so he dared not be unfaithful.

The same goes for Mammy Liu and Madam Deng sent by the emperor.

There is nothing to say about these eight, and she dare not use the newcomers in Yikun Palace for the time being.Just let Bai Lu and the others take charge of several palace servants and send them to do some chores.

After a long time, you will naturally see the good and the bad.

Seeing her serious expression, the emperor teased her again, "Look, you are also stern in front of me. Just now you are not stern enough to Concubine Tong and Concubine Yi?"

Chen Wenxin asked in surprise, "Did I keep a straight face just now?"

The emperor nodded, "There is no expression on your face, and you are not angry."

She usually doesn't talk much in front of the concubines, and she doesn't show any expression.It looks cold and indifferent, making people unable to touch his temper or see his emotions.

Today, she has a comparable momentum to Concubine Tong, who is used to being in power.

This is beyond the expectations of Concubine Tong and Yipin, and it is also beyond the expectation of the emperor.

Chen Wenxin hurriedly ran to the glazed mirror in front of the dressing table to take a look, observed her complexion from left to right, thinking about what the emperor said about not being angry and self-righteous.

Did she really show her prestige in front of Concubine Tong?
The emperor found it funny, so he asked Madam Liu and Madam Deng to tell Chen Wenxin.

The two of them spoke more exaggeratedly than the emperor, she felt that they were not talking about her at all, but Concubine Tong, right?

Mother Deng directly imitated Chen Wenxin's tone, posing seriously.

She raised her hand, stared, and said: "This palace is the one who is ordered by the emperor to be in charge of the harem, who of you dares to be presumptuous in Yikun palace!"

Chen Wenxin laughed out loud, and leaned on the emperor's shoulder, laughing out of breath, "Am I like this?"

She was not reconciled to being imitated by Madam Deng so ferociously, she laughed and stood up to imitate Concubine Tong.

She raised her chin, squinted at Mother Deng who was half a head taller than her, and said sharply: "I am searching the palace of your little concubine, is it necessary to alarm the emperor?"

She emphasized the word "little concubine".

The emperor and Concubine Tong have known each other for more than ten years, and he is very familiar with her tone.Chen Wenxin's imitation was so similar that the emperor couldn't help laughing.

Grandma Liu is kind and gentle, and Grandma Deng is lively.The temperament of the two is exactly the same as Chen Wenxin.

The emperor knew that she didn't like nanny, so he picked two good-natured ones.As expected, she didn't reject her, and she had already gotten close after only two days together.

The maid is young and has a thin face.She didn't have any older eunuchs by her side, so when she arrived at Yikun Palace, she directly promoted the small table to be in charge.

He could feel more at ease when he had two decent nuns to advise her on her errands.

After Chen Wenxin joked, she was still worried about Concubine Tong Gui. She didn't get a bargain today, and she tore her face again.

Wouldn't she be regarded as a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh in the future?
No, she has to find a way to divert Concubine Tong's attention.
