The Concubine's Biography of the Concubine Seizing the Palace
Chapter 125 Gossip
"I..." Ruoyan hesitated. 【 】
"Look at the look in his eyes, every time you hear me talk about him, the expression and sadness in your eyes, every time you inadvertently ask me about other things, I can feel it!" Wei Ning'er was full of bitterness, even though she She has known it for a long time, but never dared to mention it, after all Ruoyan is the closest person to her in this palace.
"Ning'er, what are you talking about? I admit that I used to like Fu Heng, but...but I don't like it a long time ago!" Ever since she decided to give up that time, she never had extravagant hopes in her heart.
"Ruoyan, I will never have anything to do with Fu Heng again in this life, if one day you can leave the palace, you..."
"No..." Ruoyan interrupted her: "I don't want it, Ning'er, I like Fu Heng, but he only has you in his heart. I, Yehenara Ruoyan, don't want other people's charity. If I want to marry, I will marry someone who treats me wholeheartedly. Fu Heng is yours, and no one can take it away. Are you going to give him up?"
"It's not that I want to give up, but now..." Wei Ning'er was heartbroken, how could she have that chance now?
"If there is really no other way, then escape from the palace, even if you can't justly marry him, you can still stay with him forever!" Ruoyan even had a trace of longing in his eyes.
"But now...will he still want me?" Wei Ning'er was moved by Ruo Yan's words, but she was very worried.
"You are so stupid, if he doesn't want you, he is not the Fu Heng I once fell in love with, and he is not worthy of your concern!" Ruoyan smiled wryly.
Wei Ning'er fell silent upon hearing this.
"Think about it carefully!" Ruoyan didn't say much, it's up to Wei Ning'er to make up her own mind.
The staff of the Punishment Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs obtained the emperor's order, and they used severe punishments on the suspected maids and eunuchs, but found nothing. In the early morning of the second day, Liang Ming, the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, hurried to the Palace of Compassion .
"Director Liang is here!" Seeing Liang Ming coming, Lu Mo was slightly surprised, and then greeted him with a smile.
"Lu Mo, has the Empress Dowager got up yet?" Even though it was cold at this moment, Liang Ming was sweating profusely, looking at Lu Mo and asked cautiously.
Seeing him like this, Lu Mo knew something serious had happened, and immediately said: "The empress dowager just got up, let me report it!"
After a while, Lu Mo walked out quickly again: "Director Liang, the Empress Dowager invites you in!"
"Thank you!" Liang Ming thanked, and then quickly entered the hall.
"My servant respectfully invites the Empress Dowager to be safe!" Liang Ming slapped a thousand.
"Get up, Liang Ming, have you got the result?" asked the Queen Mother.
Liang Ming knelt down immediately: "Empress Dowager, the servant deserves to die!"
"What happened?" An ominous premonition rose in the queen mother's heart.
"Report to the Empress Dowager, those two eunuchs are dead!" Liang Ming trembled.
"Dead?" The queen mother was surprised.
"Yes, last night, the servant asked the people from the Punishment Department to interrogate overnight. In the early hours of this morning, they hadn't confessed yet, so the people from the Punishment Department thought they would interrogate after dawn, but they bit their tongues and committed suicide!" Liang Ming cautiously replied. road.
"Useless stuff!" The queen mother's complexion changed slightly, and she shouted in a deep voice.
"Damn the slave!" Liang Ming was so frightened that he fell to the ground.
"What about Mo Ju, the maid in charge of the warehouse?" The Queen Mother asked again.
"Report to the Empress Dowager, Mo Ju... she is also dead!" Liang Ming said, feeling uneasy in his heart. This time he did not do well, and he would definitely be severely punished.
"How did she die?" asked the Queen Mother, taking a deep breath.
"He hit the wall and died!" Liang Ming trembled.
"You... What's the use of Aijia keeping you? Not only can't the interrogation result, but also let them die!" The queen mother only felt anxious and almost couldn't get up, which scared the Qiu mother and the chief eunuch beside her. Ma Renyi was in a hurry and pretended to be confused, so he wanted to announce the imperial physician.
Liang Ming was so frightened that he only kowtowed to plead guilty.
"It's okay to mourn the family!" The queen mother slowly came over.
"Liang Ming, you useless slave, if you let the Ai family know that you were bought and deliberately killed them, the Ai family will definitely kill you!" The queen mother looked at Liang Ming who was kneeling on the ground and trembling. drank.
"Empress Dowager, the servant was wronged. The servant was originally the servant by your side. It was the empress who praised the servant. The servant has today. The servant dare not do anything to betray you. Please check it out!" After Liang Ming was frightened, he said: He kowtowed and begged for mercy.
"Forget it, you go to the Punishment Department for Ai's family to get twenty boards, and find out for Ai's family whether someone killed the three of them on purpose!" The queen mother only felt that this matter was becoming more and more elusive for her.
"Yes, I obey the order!" Liang Ming crawled out of the main hall.
At this time, Wu Shulai, who was ordered to search the palace, also came to the Palace of Compassion, and Lumo led him to meet the Queen Mother.
After Wu Shulai received the order yesterday, he searched the palace non-stop. He didn't even dare to rest at night, and led the crowd to run all over the palace with lanterns. Before reporting back to the emperor, he came to the Palace of Compassion.
"Wu Shulai, have you found it?" The queen mother was feeling uncomfortable with Liang Ming, and she couldn't cheer up after seeing Wu Shulai.
"I want to report to my lord, the servant searched the palace according to the order, and found three nine-leaf clover in the small garden behind the Changchun Palace!" Wu Shulai bowed and reported.
Just because he took everyone to search and couldn't hide it, so he sent his confidantes to quietly inform the queen, let her make preparations, and come to the Palace of Compassion and Ning to reply to the decree.
"Changchun Palace!" The Empress Dowager hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Wu Shulai, have you found anything else?"
"Never!" Wu Shu replied back and forth.
"Wu Shulai, you go back to the emperor." The queen mother said a little helplessly.
"Yes!" Wu Shulai retreated immediately.
After Wu Shulai left, the Empress Dowager said to Mother Qiu and others beside her: "The Ai family sees that this time things are a little tricky, what can you see?"
"Your Majesty, if you say something bold, there are not many people in the palace who have the ability to trick everyone into applauding!" Mother Qiu said in a low voice.
"You're right, but who is it? Aijia sees that they don't have the guts." Familiar faces flashed in the Queen Mother's mind.
"Your Majesty, just as Mother Qiu said, there are very few people in the palace who have this ability and connections to do this. Only concubines and above are able to do this. Moreover, the foundation of Jiafei and Pure Concubine is still shallow. I'm afraid I don't have that strength yet!" Ma Renyi said respectfully.
"Yes, ma'am!" Lu Mo also nodded slightly.
"Go and find out who the dead eunuchs and palace maids have been in contact with on weekdays, and find out who they are. The Ai family has not asked about world affairs these years, but unexpectedly they are so bold that they even dare to install them in my Compassion Palace. People come, take this opportunity to send all the people in the palace to Xinzheku, and then ask the Ministry of Internal Affairs to send some servants, carefully select them, and never let anyone get mixed into the Palace of Compassion and Peace!" The Empress Dowager ordered in a deep voice .
"Yes, empress!" The three immediately responded.
Who are the Queen, Concubine and Concubine Xian?Or is there a hidden force in this palace that is not known to the Ai family?The queen mother thought in her heart, very worried.
……
After Wu Shulai returned to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, he told the emperor about the three nine-leaf clover found in the Queen's Palace. After hearing this, the Emperor pondered for a moment and said, "Go to Changchun Palace."
"Yes!"
After the emperor went to the Changchun Palace, he went to the bedroom to visit the injured queen. About a quarter of an hour later, the emperor came out of the bedroom.
"Wu Shulai, send someone to pull out the three-branch nine-leaf grass in the back garden." The emperor ordered Wu Shulai.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Although Wu Shulai didn't know what the empress and the emperor said, but seeing the emperor's expression was the same, and giving such orders, he knew that the empress would not be in any danger, and Wei Ning'er would naturally not be implicated, so he felt relieved.
After the emperor returned to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, he ordered the people in the palace not to mention this matter again, as if it was nothing and never happened.
Everyone in the palace also smelled danger from this unusual calm.
For the past few days, Wei Ning'er has been staying in her room, unwilling to leave even a single step. Although the slaves in Changchun Palace are disciplined very strictly on weekdays, there are gradually gossips coming out. There is a lot of discussion.
On this day, Wei Ning'er finally left the house and was about to go to the princess's place to say hello, but when she got outside the princess' bedroom, she heard the laughter of the little maids.
"Wei Ning'er is really unlucky too. Our emperor is a benevolent person. All favored court ladies will at least give birth to an official daughter. The Fuliu next to the imperial concubine was granted the title at the beginning. But look, Wei Ning'er has arrived. She is still a palace lady now, she really deserves it!" The little palace maid covered her mouth and started laughing.
"That's not true, who let her belong to our palace, the emperor's feelings for the empress are well known in the palace, the emperor probably regretted it!" another court lady laughed.
"Regret? I'm afraid it was Wei Ning'er who used the fox charm to climb onto the dragon bed while the emperor was being drugged..."
"On weekdays, I can't see that she has such thoughts!"
"You guys are stupid, she didn't even want to be the elder brother's side Fujin when she had the opportunity, of course she wanted to be the empress..."
"It's a pity, I don't think she will ever get ahead in her life..."
A few court ladies glanced at you, and I said a word, whether it was lively or not, and what followed was even more unsettling.
They are all maids of honor in the Princess Palace, Wei Ning'er thought that she treats them kindly on weekdays, whenever something goes wrong, she always shields them, she never thought that today they will make trouble, it is not only hateful, but also terrifying.
"Shhh...don't talk!" At this moment, a little court lady suddenly found Wei Ning'er standing behind her, she was so frightened that she immediately pulled the companions around her.
"Sister Ning'er!" The little maid was called Xiangtao, she was usually much more timid, so she immediately blessed herself slightly.
"Sister Ning'er!" The other three little maids were also slightly blessed. Even though Wei Ning'er was still a court lady, she was much better than them. Among other things, she never fell out of favor in front of the queen and princess.
In the past few days, the princess often sneaked into her room to talk to her, which moved Wei Ning'er so much. She thought that she could not worry them any more, so she walked out of the room, and heard these things unexpectedly.
Endless humiliation swept over, making Wei Ning'er almost out of breath.
"Ning'er, so you are here, let me find you easily, follow me quickly, the empress dowager summoned everyone in the harem, the emperor asked Eunuch Wu to order the empress empress to take you there, the empress is waiting for you!" Ken ran over.
"Look at the look in his eyes, every time you hear me talk about him, the expression and sadness in your eyes, every time you inadvertently ask me about other things, I can feel it!" Wei Ning'er was full of bitterness, even though she She has known it for a long time, but never dared to mention it, after all Ruoyan is the closest person to her in this palace.
"Ning'er, what are you talking about? I admit that I used to like Fu Heng, but...but I don't like it a long time ago!" Ever since she decided to give up that time, she never had extravagant hopes in her heart.
"Ruoyan, I will never have anything to do with Fu Heng again in this life, if one day you can leave the palace, you..."
"No..." Ruoyan interrupted her: "I don't want it, Ning'er, I like Fu Heng, but he only has you in his heart. I, Yehenara Ruoyan, don't want other people's charity. If I want to marry, I will marry someone who treats me wholeheartedly. Fu Heng is yours, and no one can take it away. Are you going to give him up?"
