Donggong Zhangjiao

Chapter 432 I also want to live well

Yun Qian felt aggrieved by Yang Bin's reprimand.

Today, when the emperor comes, she has changed her clothes and jewelry according to Yang Concubine's instructions, and has dressed up carefully. She has also been arranged to carry medicine, specifically to attract the emperor's attention.

But...but the emperor just didn't look at her.

What could she do.

Just now, she stood by and served the two of them the whole time. The emperor treated her as a palace maid, but he did not regard her as a concubine.

But Yun Qian didn't dare to speak out about these grievances. If she did, she would only be reprimanded by Yang Bin for sophistry.

Therefore, he could only bow his head and say, "Mom, please calm down. I know I was wrong."

"What's the use of just knowing your mistakes? If you still can't keep people when the emperor comes next time, I won't have to support you anymore." Yang Bin glared at her and said.

Finally, he turned to look at Si Qi and said, "Send the word out. The Emperor has been on the throne for so long and has not yet drafted. It's time for the court to remind him."

Mrs. Yang had already ordered her family to find a girl from a branch of the Yang family, and planned to bring her into the palace and pamper her. Some time ago, she was entangled in a series of things and had no thoughts to make arrangements. Now she is more active again. .

Indeed, although Yun Qian is somewhat pretty, her delicate face is not outstanding at all among the many beauties in the harem. In addition, she is a dowry maid, and her status is relatively low. It is okay for a temporary emergency, but long-term help is enough. Not enough anymore.

You also need someone with a decent background and outstanding appearance.

After receiving the order, Si Qi nodded and quickly stepped back to make arrangements.

Yun Qian silently lowered her eyes and couldn't help but squeeze the handkerchief tightly.

After returning to her residence and closing the door, Yun Qian felt agitated.

Xiaomei, the palace maid who was serving her, brought a cup of tea over and couldn't help but say.

"It's time for Cainu to make plans for herself. Even though I'm stupid, I can see that Concubine Yang wants to give up on you. Without Concubine Yang's care in the future, you will fall out of favor with the emperor again. But these days... How easy it is."

Because she was born as a maid, and her status was not high, she was only served by three or four people around her. Therefore, Yun Qian always treated the people around her very well, which made the few who served her very loyal to her. .

Especially Xiaomei, who serves her closely.

Originally, Xiaomei also served Yang, but she was young and couldn't work, so she was often bullied by others. Later, Yunqian served Pei Yao. With her identity, Yang sent Xiaomei to follow Yunqian.

Now after getting along with her for the past few years, Xiaomei only has Yun Qian as her master in her heart, and she has long since disowned Yang Bin.

"What can I do." Yun Qian smiled bitterly, "I didn't volunteer to serve the emperor at the beginning, but Yunrou and I were the empress's maids, so we had already made this plan, but Yunrou didn't. Well, my life is better, and I have become the Emperor's concubine and have enjoyed the blessings of the past few years."

"Cainv, forgive Xiaomei for talking too much. Although I am a bit stupid, I also know that Empress Yang is not satisfied with the third prince. She still wants you to sleep with her, but she just wants you to give birth to a healthy child for her, so that Hou I'm afraid the government will send people into the palace again for this reason. Cai Nu, you have to earn a living. If you have a child, even if it is taken away, it is better than nothing. You will still have someone to rely on for the rest of your life!"

Xiaomei looked at her very sincerely, paused and said again.

"When the people selected by the Marquis Mansion come in, I'm afraid, Concubine Yang will really not give you another chance."

Listening to Xiaomei's words, Yun Qian's face also showed wavering.

Finally, he nodded.

Just this time, she only earned it once.

She was forced to embark on this road, and she also wanted to live well.

In the next 20 days, Pei Yao only entered the harem three times.

Once she went to the queen's place according to the rules, and twice she went to He Lingyi's place. Zhongcuigong sent someone to see Yang Bin, but Pei Yao himself did not come.

Although the frequency is small, everyone can see that he has not been to Yuzhang Palace in the past month.

It can be seen that what happened last time really made the emperor angry.

Fang Yun was left out, and countless people in the harem were happy.

The happiest person was He Lingyi. This was not the most times she had seen Pei Yao.

Although these other people combined did not meet the emperor as many times as Fang Yue in the past half month, it was still worthy of the joy of He Lingyi, who had not been favored for a long time.

As for the queen, seeing the situation in the harem, she also had her own plans in mind.After symbolically persuading Fang Yun to submit to the emperor, he turned a blind eye.

As for Yuzhang Palace, why did Fang Yun do nothing about falling out of favor?

Because someone said he wouldn't come, he still sneaked in a few times at night.

But counting the time, it’s been a month and it’s time to show off.

So I chose a rainy night and announced my illness the next morning.

Then Pei Yao took advantage of the situation and pretended to be worried after all. After the morning court, he went to Yuzhang Palace to visit.

I stayed with him in Yuzhang Palace for half a day and left after lunch.

In the afternoon, I went back to Jingqian Palace to handle some government affairs, had dinner again, and finally stayed overnight.

For the next three consecutive days, I stayed with him in Yuzhang Palace.

Everyone in the harem took a look and realized that this was his return to favor.

Although I feel very sad, I have to admit that Concubine Zhao has always been favored, but occasionally she is left out. It is indeed easy to regain her favor.

But Fang Yun's "return to favor" will naturally cause some people's displeasure.

For example, how to order rituals.

Now she was thriving, and suddenly Fang Yun came out again, naturally she was angry.

After thinking about it for a while, I decided to ask Lin Chan for advice.

Although Lin Chan thought she was stupid, he scolded her behind her back and still gave her a few pointers.

He Lingyi still knew how to do what he was told.

So after Fang Yun was recovering from his illness and went to Fengxuan Palace to pay his respects, he took the opportunity to bump into him.

"I haven't seen you for a long time. Your Majesty has been ill for the past few days and you haven't come to pay your respects to the Queen. I'm still worried. Now I look at you. Your Majesty looks so good. She seems not to be sick."

He Lingyi opened his mouth with a smile, paused, looked at Yang Bin again, and continued.

"Ms. Yang Bin is really weak and frail. She looks haggard every day, but she still keeps coming to pay her respects to the empress."

Faced with the provocation in her words, Fang Yun just glanced at her coldly.

After sitting down and taking a sip of tea, he said calmly.

"Why, do you mean that I am half-dead due to my illness and am bedridden?"

"Your Majesty, I have misunderstood. I don't have this."

"Nothing?" Fang Yun put the tea cup down, and the cup collided with the table, making a sound.

When He Lingyi heard this neither gentle nor serious voice, his body trembled for no reason and he clenched the veil involuntarily.

Fang Yun raised his chin slightly, with a cold look, "Did I hear wrongly, or are you tongue-tied, or maybe He Lingyi has served the emperor for two days and thinks he can discuss my affairs?"

"Chen and concubine dare not!"

He Lingyi stood up quickly, suppressed the fear in his heart, thinking about Lin Chan's explanation, and bowed bravely.

"Your Majesty, please calm down. I said the wrong thing. Please forgive me!"

When she was finishing this ceremony, the queen happened to come out of the inner hall.

As soon as he caught his eye, he saw He Lingyi ducking down towards Fang Yun with a look of fear on his face and saying words of apology.

He couldn't help but frown for a moment.

"What's going on?!"
