Chapter 465 Demotion to Chonghua

"But what is the emperor's order?"

Wei Qingyi smiled slightly.

"Yes." Shenquan said: "The emperor asked Concubine Wei to tidy up, and now go to the Hall of Mental Cultivation."

"Your Majesty, please, please invite me to the Hall of Mental Cultivation?"

Wei Qingyi opened her eyes wide, with disbelief written all over her face.

"Isn't the emperor in Yaohua Palace? Why did the emperor let..."

Speaking of this, Wei Qingyi suddenly realized that she had said something wrong, and when she looked at Shenquan again, her eyes flickered slightly.

Shenquan still kept his head down and smiled slightly, as if he didn't hear it.

Wei Qingyi chuckled lightly: "Eunuch Shen, please wait a moment for me to let me take a bath and change clothes."

"Your Majesty, it doesn't matter if the servant waits for your Majesty for a while, but if the Emperor waits for a long time, I'm afraid..."

"Alright, I will go with Eunuch Shen now."

Wei Qingyi subconsciously placed her hand on the purse at her waist, and slowly squeezed it tightly.

It was only a cup of tea, Wei Qingyi wore the daytime clothes, and followed the deep spring out of the Zhumo Palace.

The Hall of Mental Cultivation, the side hall, is empty.

"Deep..." Wei Qingyi turned around, and wanted to ask, when she heard a "bang", and the hall door was closed.

Wei Qingyi was very puzzled.

She walked towards the hall, and in the somewhat dark hall, light suddenly burst out.

All the candles in the temple were lit.

Wei Qingyi turned pale. Seeing Li Yu'er who appeared in the hall "out of thin air", her first reaction was to leave the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

"stop."

Yan Xiu appeared behind Wei Qingyi, blocking Wei Qingyi's way of leaving.

"Your majesty..." Wei Qingyi was slightly surprised: "My concubine, my concubine please please the emperor."

Yan Xiu didn't look at her, but walked past her and came directly to Li Yuer's side: "Are you tired?"

"The concubine is not tired."

Li Yu'er gave him a coquettish look.

She was carried all the way by Yan Xiu, how could she be tired?
"Your Majesty, Concubine Jinxian..." Wei Qingyi saw the two people's tired and crooked words, but felt that everything was not pleasing to the eye, so she couldn't help interrupting them.

"Concubine Wei, what's the matter with you?"

Li Yuer raised her eyebrows.

Wei Qingyi raised her chin: "Concubine Jinxian, the emperor specially ordered the ministers and concubines to come here. I don't know why Concubine Jinxian is in the Hall of Mental Cultivation instead of Yaohua Palace?"

Li Yu'er chuckled: "Of course I want to be here."

"I'm not here, so don't you have a chance to use the things in your purse on the emperor?"

Wei Qingyi's face changed slightly, her first reaction was to put her hand on her purse.

"Deep spring."

"Yes." Shenquan, who was guarding outside the door, entered the hall at some point and appeared beside Wei Qingyi.

He stretched out a hand towards Wei Qingyi, and said with a smile: "Miss Concubine Wei, please."

Wei Qingyi pinched the purse around her waist with her hands, and backed away unconsciously.

When she retreats, the deep spring enters.

For some reason, Wei Qingyi tripped and fell to the ground during the process of retreating.

"I offended you, Concubine Wei."

Shen Quan did not help Wei Qingyi who fell to the ground, but tore the purse from her waist and brought it to the emperor.

"Go."

"Yes." Shenquan agreed, and walked behind the screen.

Unexpectedly, behind the screen, not only Qingye was there, but also Imperial Physician Zhang was there.

"I'm sorry, Doctor Zhang."

Shenquan handed over both purses.

Doctor Zhang took the purse with trembling hands, his first reaction was: "Yes, that's the smell..."

Soon, Shen Quan came back and replied: "Your Majesty, there is indeed a spice similar to acacia incense in the purse carried by Concubine Wei."

"Wei Fei, what do you have to say!"

Yan Xiu's tone was light.

Wei Qingyi knelt on the ground and stammered: "Your Majesty, my concubine likes spices, that's why I brought Xiangyu to serve me. I have a lot of spices in my purse, all of them are prepared by Xiangyu for my concubine. Yes, I hope the emperor will see clearly."

"Xiangyu?"

Li Yu'er laughed: "What kind of trouble did this girl Xiangyu encounter to meet a master like you."

Wei Qingyi didn't dare to talk back to Concubine Jinxian at this time, but kept apologizing to Yan Xiu, hoping that Yan Xiu would forgive her.

"Go, bring people up."

Verification is still going on.

In the harem, because Wei Qingyi was sent to the Hall of Mental Cultivation by the emperor, many people could not sleep peacefully.

Some people really thought that the emperor was telling Concubine Wei to attend her bed. After all, Concubine Wei was wronged during the day, and it is understandable for the emperor to comfort Concubine Wei at night, but some people got a different taste from it.

"How could the emperor tell Concubine Wei to go to the Hall of Mental Cultivation?"

"Your Majesty, do you really think that the Emperor wants to appease Concubine Wei?"

Lian Yi waited on Concubine Yu Yu Xiangying to take a bath, and whispered.

Yu Xiangying sighed: "How is it possible."

Lian Yi is puzzled.

"Zhou Shunyuan's health may not be getting better. The emperor watched from the sidelines during the day. The reason why Concubine Wei was really punished to kneel until the end was because the emperor had spoken."

"The emperor has punished Concubine Wei too many times. Have you ever seen the emperor comfort Concubine Wei because of this?"

Lian Yi thought for a while: "It seems that there really isn't one."

"That's according to the meaning of the empress..."

"I'm afraid Zhou Shunyuan's situation is not very good, and Concubine Wei is also inseparable from it. Tomorrow, we will know the result."

The next day.

The news that Concubine Wei Wei Qingyi was demoted to become Wei Chonghua shocked the entire harem.

Chonghua ranks last among the nine concubines.

There are still concubines Shun and Xiu's positions, but the emperor just downgraded her to the word "Charge", which is the last Chonghua, so it really doesn't matter whether it is face or liking.

Although Wei Qingyi still lives in Zhumo Palace, there are now two concubines in Zhumo Palace.

Zhou Shunyuan's status was much higher than Wei Qingyi's.

Wei Qingyi is no longer Concubine Wei, and when Zhou Shunyuan returns to Zhumo Palace, she will kneel down to pay respects to Zhou Shunyuan.

Concubine Jinxian asked for leave and did not go to pay her respects to the Queen Mother.

When everyone was sitting in the Empress Dowager's Compassionate Palace, they were still discussing this matter in low voices.

"Concubine Wu is well-informed, but do you know what Wei Chonghua did to anger the emperor?"

Du Lan looked at Zhao Mei and smiled.

Zhao Mei raised her eyebrows and looked over: "If you say you are well-informed, Du Shunrong won't be too shy, so don't be modest, all the sisters are very curious, tell them when you have news, don't hide it to make them curious. "

Du Shunrong almost rolled his eyes.

If she really found out something, she wouldn't ask Zhao Mei directly.

Song Xiaoxiao, who seldom spoke at such a time, suddenly said: "I heard yesterday that the voice of a woman singing came from the palace road where the emperor's dragon chariot would pass."

"The melodious voice of the song is really moving. I had never heard this song at the last New Year's banquet, and I don't know who sang it. I really want to hear it."

Song Xiaoxiao's thoughtless words made many people think.

"Song Shunhua means that the one who sang on the palace road is Wei Chonghua?" Zhao Mei answered.

"Responding to Concubine Wu's words, my concubine heard about this matter. I don't know which sister it is." Song Xiaoxiao lowered her eyebrows and looked pleasing to the eye.

She said she didn't know, but her attitude showed that the person who wanted to attract the emperor's attention with her singing voice was none other than Wei Chonghua.

"The fragrance around Empress Chonghua is very good at mixing fragrance."

Su Ruoxue took a sip of her tea and said in a warm voice.

fragrant?
Gong Dao sang to seduce the emperor...

Several concubines connected things together.

It turned out that Wei Chonghua's punishment was not all because of Zhou Shunyuan's affairs, but because she failed to seduce the emperor!

"Concubine Wu, keep your voice down, don't let Empress Chonghua hear you."

Du Lan said with a smile.

As soon as she finished speaking, the eunuch's communication voice came from outside the door: "Wei Chonghua is here."

The smile on Du Lan's face became a little weird.

She couldn't figure out why Wei Chonghua was downgraded and still in the mood to greet the Queen Mother today. Isn't she afraid that everyone will see her jokes? "Wei Qingyi is very afraid that others will see her jokes, but she knows that if she doesn't come, these people will look down on her even more.

So here she is.

Wei Qingyi wore a gorgeous long dress, and her face was very glamorous under the delicate makeup.

As soon as she appeared, the chattering hall suddenly became quiet.

Wei Qingyi's expression remained unchanged, Fuli saluted with the concubines in the palace.

Overnight, many more people needed her to salute.

The Queen Mother also appeared shortly after Wei Qingyi took her seat. She didn't say much, and naturally she didn't ask too much about Wei Qingyi's demotion.

"How is Zhou Shunyuan?"

The queen mother asked Concubine De.

"With the empress dowager in her arms, I think Zhou Shunyuan will work hard to fight against the illness after she finds out about it."

The Empress Dowager sighed: "This child is really in a lot of trouble."

"Now she lives in your Yikun Palace, you must take good care of her, and don't let her lack anything."

"Yes, the concubine knows." Concubine De agreed.

"Shen Jing, choose some medicinal materials and supplements and send them to Yikun Palace. Oh, yes, the imperial physician will send whatever is needed, and those who are healthy will also be taken."

The queen mother ordered again.

Shen Jing hurriedly responded to make arrangements.

After talking about Zhou Shunyuan's affairs, the Queen Mother found Concubine Jiang's fetus again.

"Concubine Jiang looks much better these days." The queen mother observed Jiang Yiruo's complexion.

She was white and rosy, but this kind of complexion always made her feel weird.

"The concubine's appetite has improved a lot in the past two days, and if she wants to eat something, her complexion will also improve." Jiang Yiruo touched his cheek and said with a smile.

The Queen Mother nodded, and a smile finally appeared on her face: "Okay, you must eat well."

"Looking at your belly, Ai's family is finally pregnant. It is getting bigger and bigger every day. After careful calculation, it will take more than two months to give birth, right?"

The smile on Jiang Yiruo's face remained unchanged, and his hand subconsciously placed on his slightly raised belly.

She showed an impeccable smile: "The concubine will take good care of her body and strive to give birth to the eldest son for the emperor as soon as possible."

The words "the eldest son of the emperor" made many people change their faces.

Zhao Mei wanted to say something, but when she thought that the queen mother was still there, she might cause her dissatisfaction if she said it, so she simply picked up the tea bowl and drank tea to prevent herself from talking nonsense.

The Empress Dowager rewarded Concubine Jiang with a lot of things, and then the crowd dispersed.

"Is my sister going to visit Zhou Shunyuan?"

Du Lan approached Song Xiaoxiao and asked in a low voice.

Song Xiaoxiao nodded: "Of course I'm going to take a look. I heard that the imperial physician and Miss Qingye have already gone to Yikun Palace."

Concubine De, who heard the conversation between the two, paused and replied sideways: "Yes, I have to hurry back and have a look, Song Shunhua and Du Shunrong together."

"Yes."

The two of them moved towards Concubine De Fuli and followed Concubine De.

Concubine Jiang pursed her lips.

She wanted to go back to the palace, but Du Lan and Song Xiaoxiao had both gone, so it was hard for her to say that she wanted to go back to the palace to rest.

"Concubine Jiang is pregnant, so let's go back to the palace to rest. How about reporting Zhou Shunyuan's situation to Concubine Jiang after the concubine and Du Shunrong return to the palace?"

Song Xiaoxiao observed Jiang Yiruo's hesitation and entanglement, and said softly.

"I really miss Zhou Shunyuan, but it's not suitable for me to visit her, so I'll trouble the two younger sisters."

Jiang Yiruo breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile.

"No matter what Jiang Fei said, we are all sisters, and we should understand and help each other."

Song Xiaoxiao raised her lips and smiled.

Everyone bowed and separated, walking in different directions.

Du Lan approached Song Xiaoxiao: "What's wrong with you?"

"What's going on?" Song Xiaoxiao looked puzzled.

"You still pretend." Du Lan was speechless: "What are you pretending in front of Ben Gong? You are not a person who likes to show off on weekdays, why did you say so much today? Aren't you afraid that it will be heard by Wei Chonghua and make her jealous?" ?”

Song Xiaoxiao smiled slightly: "My sister is worrying too much, my sister just told some interesting things I heard to share with you."

I didn't say anything. As for what you think, that's your business, isn't it?

Du Lan: ...

Good guy, she recalled it carefully, it seems that Song Xiaoxiao really didn't say anything.

Even she used her imagination to guess.

When she came back to her senses, she found that Song Xiaoxiao had already walked to Concubine De's side, whispering something to Concubine De.

Du Lan hastened to follow up.

Yikun Palace.

Yan Xiu also came over when he left court.

"My concubine please greet the emperor, your majesty is auspicious." Concubine De led the people in the palace to salute Yan Xiu.

Yan Xiu didn't see Li Yu'er, so he gave Shen Quan a look, and entered the side hall with his hands behind his back.

"Your Majesty, Madam Zhou Shunyuan is awake."

As soon as Qingye pulled out the last silver needle on Zhou Shunyuan's acupuncture point, she felt Zhou Shunyuan's eyelashes trembling slightly. After about touching a cup of tea, Zhou Shunyuan opened her eyes.

Zhou Wanying felt that she had slept for a very, very long time. She dreamed that Han Yiqing was dead.

died?

How could Han Yiqing die?
She didn't die when she was in the cold palace, how could she die after being rescued from the cold palace?

She doesn't believe it, she really doesn't believe it.

As Zhou Wanying thought about it, the dream changed. Not only did Han Yiqing not die, but she came back to her again. She clearly heard Han Yiqing say in her ear, "Why is sister still sleeping?"

"You..." Zhou Wanying "looked" at Han Yiqing in front of her.

She is very different from before, her face has changed a lot, and only her eyes are exactly the same.

"Sister Wanying, my sister is back, is my sister happy?"

A familiar voice slowly sounded beside her ears. These words made Zhou Wanying forcefully open her heavy eyelids...

 good night.
