Seeing that she was helpless, Leng Qiyue could only pray to the heavens that she was safe and sound.
After waiting for two hours, there was still no sound from the cold palace. Leng Qiyue had no choice but to go back to her room to rest, regardless of the outcome was good or bad, it all depended on the good fortune of Die Fei.
On the second day, just as dawn arrived, a group of palace maids and eunuchs rushed into the palace. They entered and turned a blind eye to Leng Qiyue, only leaving after a brief inspection.
Leng Qiyue pulled a young palace maid back and asked, "Did something happen?"
When the palace maid saw Leng Qiyue's warm tone and how beautiful she was, she had a favorable impression of her. She said in a low voice, "Last night, Esteemed Empress Mu and His Majesty drank wine in the imperial garden. They originally wanted to admire the moon, but the sky wasn't beautiful and dark clouds filled the sky. In the midst of their disappointment, several celebrities suddenly rose into the sky. There was even a full moon. The emperor and esteemed Empress Mu were very happy. But then the moon suddenly fell, and soon after, Empress Butterfly also fell from the sky, landing right in the Emperor's arms. Everyone now says that Lady Butterfly came out of the moon to bless me. "
"Xiao Cui, quickly leave. The emperor is waiting for us to report." Another small palace maid called out.
"He's coming." Xiao Cui agreed and followed quickly.
The heavy burden in Leng Qiyue's heart had finally dropped to the ground. It seemed like Die Fei had safely left the cold palace, and her plan had succeeded. It seemed like he would be able to leave this damn place with his child soon.
Leng Qiyue was overjoyed. She cooked two dishes and ate to her heart's content.
However, even after ten days, Butterfly Concubine still hadn't sent anyone to the Cold Palace. Leng Qiyue felt a little apprehensive. Had she forgotten her oath?
Three days later, the door of the cold palace was opened again, and an elegant butterfly concubine walked in.
The butterfly consort wore a violet painted peony dress that pulled back her sleeves, and on both sides of her head was a five-tailed phoenix hairpin. The silk handkerchief in her hand was embroidered with a peony.
No concubine below the imperial concubine should be allowed to wear a pair of phoenix hairpins, but for the consort to show off so much, she must have received permission from the emperor. By the looks of it, the consort's status had risen again.
When Leng Qiyue saw the butterfly consort approach, she didn't get up. One of the servant girls by her side shouted, "Why aren't you kneeling down and kowtowing when you see the consort?"
Leng Qiyue frowned slightly. She waved her silk handkerchief and said, "You can all go down. I want to have a chat with my sister."
"Yes." The four servants and four eunuchs retreated from the cold palace.
Butterfly Consort sat opposite of Leng Qiyue and said with a smile, "It was all thanks to little sister's scheme that I was able to go out and regain the favor of the Emperor. But sister, please don't blame me for being late. You also know that the wishing lamp could not have been raised that day, but it was only thanks to the sacrifice of guard Yan's life that I was able to successfully fly to the imperial garden. "God bless me. When I landed, I was caught by the emperor. Otherwise, I would have gone to the Yellow Springs."
Leng Qiyue felt that there was something different with the butterfly consort today, but she could not say what was wrong. She did not say anything and prepared to wait and see what would happen.
When Die Fei saw that Leng Qiyue did not say anything, she continued, "Although this plan is a success, I was still frightened. Your Majesty was very nervous and did not allow me to go out. Until today, I only had the chance to come and see you, sister, so you won't blame me, will you? "
Leng Qiyue finally discovered that something was wrong. During her time in the Cold Palace, she had always referred to herself as' elder sister 'or' I '. But now, she called herself' this palace 'as if she was trying to distance herself from them.
Leng Qiyue hid her thoughts, lightly smiled, and said: "How could it be? "As long as big sister is fine, little sister is at ease."
Butterfly smiled in satisfaction and continued, "The Japanese palace in Ming will bring a group of people to the palace to gather the materials. At that time, I will hide you under a palanquin and transport you out of the palace. As for the Little Prince, I will arrange for him to leave in advance so that you can stay outside the palace as a group. "
When Leng Qiyue heard that there was hope for her leaving the palace, she was overjoyed. "Really? "Thank you, thank you elder sister." She excitedly jumped up and tightly held the butterfly concubine's hand.
Die Fei frowned and withdrew her hand without leaving a trace. She wiped it a few times with the handkerchief and said, "Alright, I will bring you out tomorrow. You should get a good rest today. "I still have to hurry and attend to the emperor, so I won't stay much longer."
"Thank you elder sister." Leng Qiyue did not notice the movements of the Butterfly Consort at all, immersing herself in the joy of reuniting with her mother.
However, all of this fell into the eyes of another person. His eyes flickered for a moment before disappearing with a swoosh.
Leng Qiyue was so excited that she did not sleep the entire night. Finally, on the second day, at the end of the morning, she got into the butterfly concubine's sedan chair. The seat in the palanquin was empty, so it wasn't hard for Leng Qiyue to curl up inside.
The group of people slowly walked out of the palace. When they reached the gate, the sedan touched down.
Leng Qiyue heard the general's voice. "Greetings, esteemed butterfly concubine. Please show your palace medallion."
"Watch carefully, the emperor gave this to me personally." Die Fei's arrogant voice made the high-ranking officer frown.
The high-ranking officer looked at the token and returned his hand. "Empress, did you take the wrong token?" This is a plate for taking items and not a plate for leaving the palace. "
"What?" Die Fei was taken aback. She grabbed the token and looked at it. Indeed, the token said that she received a reward. She felt around her body again, but there was nothing else. She then asked her personal maid, "Little silkworm, did you take my command medallion?"
Upon hearing this, the little silkworm hurriedly kneeled and said, "In reply to the Empress, I did not take it."
Die Fei snorted coldly and told the high-ranking officer, "I'm here on the emperor's orders to get a present for the empress dowager's birthday. Hurry and open the gates to let me out. You can't afford to delay matters any longer."
The high-ranking officer was not moved by her words. He bowed his head and cupped his hands, "Please forgive me, esteemed lady. I cannot open the gates to the city. If I were to cut off my head, I would have to offer it up with my hands."
"You —" Die Fei was enraged and gritted her teeth. After a while, she said, "Forget it. I won't be going out today. Return to the palace."
The group then turned around and returned to the palace.
Bai Mei Palace.
Die Fei pointed at the palace maids and eunuchs kneeling on the ground and scolded them, "You are all rice pails, you can't even find a single token."
The little silkworm timidly said, "Empress, after His Majesty gave you the command medallion, he left it with the Empress and didn't hand it over to this servant and the rest. Was the Emperor wrong for a time? "
"Pa ~ ~" The butterfly consort waved her hand and gave the little silkworm a slap.
"Insolent servant, you dare to question the emperor? Men, drag him out and beat him ten times." How could a servant not see through Die Fei's anger? Hearing what was said, he hurriedly dragged the little silkworm out. The little silkworm's face changed color, but it didn't dare to beg for mercy.
Actually, even she was suspicious. Did the Emperor really take the wrong person? At that moment, the eunuch at the side of the emperor, Eunuch Dedford, came in.
Eunuch Dede raised the imperial edict and shouted, "Lady Butterfly, accept the edict!"
Die Fei quickly knelt down.
By the will of the heavens, the Emperor," read the edict. The butterfly concubine was very smart and meticulous. From today on, she would start to take care of all the matters related to the Empress Dowager's birthday. As for the matter of leaving the palace to gather them, I'll leave it to Uncle Zuo.
A cold light flashed in Die Fei's eyes. When she raised her head, she had a gentle look. She received the imperial edict and said, "Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!"
"Empress, your servant will take his leave." Eunuch De's face was expressionless as he wore a professional smile.
"Take care, Eunuch De." Die Fei gave a bright smile, but didn't show any dissatisfaction on her face.
After the woman left, she threw the imperial edict on the ground and said through gritted teeth, "Zuo Furong, it's clear that you don't want to get along with me. Who doesn't know that your brother is a greedy villain. If he were to go and purchase the materials, he would have to go for at least 90,000 yuan. "Alright, don't let me catch you by your hair, or else I'll definitely …" Die Fei suddenly stopped talking. She glanced thoughtfully at the palanquin that had stopped not far away. Leng Qiyue was still hiding there. Now that he was unable to leave the palace, it was impossible to request help from his uncle. What could he do?
Die Fei sat down slowly and waved her hand. "You may leave. I find that palanquin annoying and throw it into the cold palace."
"Yes." The eunuchs and palace maids swiftly dispersed as if they had received an order of forgiveness.
When the butterfly concubine saw that the little silkworm had been tortured and limped in, she suddenly came up with a plan. She smiled and said, "Little silkworm, you know, I've just come out of the cold palace. I'll give you this hairpin as a reward. Go back and have a good rest for the day. " The butterfly consort took a golden plum blossom hairpin from her head and handed it to the little silkworm.
The little silkworm excitedly took the golden hairpin. "Many thanks to the Empress for the gift."
The palace maid's salary was very little. If this golden hairpin could cover three years of her salary, how could she not be happy? When the palace maid left the palace at the age of twenty, she would be able to take away the reward from the mistress. Therefore, every palace maid wanted to accumulate a generous amount of dowry; after all, she was an old lady at the age of twenty.
Die Fei watched the little silkworm leave in satisfaction, a cold smile hanging from the corner of her mouth. She turned her gaze in the direction of the cold palace …
After waiting for two hours, there was still no sound from the cold palace. Leng Qiyue had no choice but to go back to her room to rest, regardless of the outcome was good or bad, it all depended on the good fortune of Die Fei.
