The Six Palaces of Favorites: The Black-bellied Emperor's Cold Concubine

Chapter 1012: Forcing the Palace (3)
After thinking about it, Qingchen felt that maybe he had really misunderstood the emperor. Once Wei Zheng died, the people under him were all deputy commanders, and no one would be willing to obey anyone. Only Xiao Jue was the most suitable for this position.Regardless of whether he is competent or not, he is a member of the royal family, and his status has already determined that it is most legitimate for him to take this position.

After lying down for less than a quarter of an hour, she sat up. Seeing that she was awake, Yun Lan hurriedly took a soft pillow for her to lean on, and said softly, "Your Majesty, don't get up in a hurry, just calm down first."

Qingchen turned her head inadvertently, saw Qinxue poking her head outside, and ordered: "Come in if you have something to say."

Qinxue opened the curtain and came in, saw that she woke up earlier than usual today, and looked at her face carefully, it seemed that she didn't feel any discomfort, so she said: "Madam, Wei Ronghua heard that his brother passed away, and he is kneeling in front of the imperial court. Crying, I have to ask the emperor to check clearly and give her the Wei family an explanation. The emperor is discussing state affairs with the ministers, how can he have time to talk to her, you said she is a lady after all, why is it proper to cry like this?"

Qingchen snorted coldly and said: "Let her make trouble, brother and sister are equally stupid, if she can stay in her own palace honestly at this time, when she gives birth to a royal heir, the emperor may treat her kindly." Wei Zheng Even though he was unfaithful, he did not do any treasonous things after all. Perhaps the emperor would compensate Wei Ronghua for the sake of his 'inexplicable death'. But her attitude was so obviously biased towards their Wei family, Will the emperor still keep her? Just wait and see, from now until she gives birth, she may never have the chance to step out of Qionghua Palace again."

Yun Lan pondered at the side: "The empress means, doesn't it mean that the emperor will ground her?"

Qingchen caressed the golden silk peony pattern on the quilt, his eyes were cold like needles that could sting people's skin, "Confinement is inevitable, otherwise, at this moment, the emperor would not be in the mood to watch her make trouble in front of the imperial court all day long." , she'd better not be so stupid as to lose the child in her womb, if she annoys the emperor again at this time, she may have to die."

Yun Lan sneered and said: "My maid guessed that the empress would definitely intervene in this matter. She is protecting Wei Ronghua, and she probably wants the child in Wei Ronghua's womb. But other people's children are always not as good as their own. , Queen, this can be regarded as a two-handed plan."

"She is good at scheming, but it's a pity that she may not be able to fulfill her wish. Even if Wei Ronghua can give birth to a prince, the emperor will definitely not give the child to the queen to raise." Qingchen got up and went to bed, Yun Lan and Qin Xue waited on her to get dressed .

Qingchen told Yunlan again: "Jinyun's memorial day is coming soon, you go to the House of Internal Affairs tomorrow to get some paper money, and burn it for her in the Buddhist hall, don't forget that there is also Qin Jieyu."

Yun Lan nodded gently, "Your maidservant has made a note, and the empress is at ease. Jin Yun has a spirit in the sky, if she knows that the empress treats her so caringly, she will definitely be grateful."

Thinking of Jin Yun's death, Qing Chen felt hatred in his heart, he couldn't help gritting his teeth and said: "I will avenge her, and I will never let her die in vain, even if that person is the queen!"

Sure enough, it was as she expected, and it was only a cup of tea. Word spread from outside that the empress had ordered Wei Ronghua to be brought back to the palace by force, and the empress banned Wei Ronghua before the emperor gave an order. Her feet were clearly stipulated that no one should visit her until Wei Ronghua gave birth to the emperor's heir.

Qingchen thought, with Wei Ronghua's temperament, if she was confined for ten months, she would probably go crazy.

For several days in a row, at this unusual time, the harem was unusually peaceful. The more it was like this, the more it made her feel the oppressive feeling that the rain was about to come.

Seven days later, news of Xiao Jue's victory over the enemy came from the south, and Qingchen's heartstrings that had been tensed for so many days were finally relieved.

During this time, the entire harem was shrouded in an inexplicable tense atmosphere. Even when they went to greet the queen in the morning, no one was in the mood to engage in unnecessary verbal disputes. It seemed that everyone was tacitly waiting for the end of a storm. advent.These days, the emperor basically does not enter the harem, probably there are too many things to deal with, and three meals a day are also used in the imperial study to make do.

The queen was not dissatisfied with the emperor's non-compliance with the agreement, but uncharacteristically treated Xin Shuyuan extraordinarily well, and also showed unusual affection for the second prince. Rewards were sent to her every now and then, and she often ordered people to bring the second prince to the Jiao Fangdian was playing, trying to teach Yun'er to recognize herself as the queen mother.

Xin Shuyuan was overwhelmed by flattery, and was in a state of anxiety all day long, but she didn't know why the empress had such a big change in her attitude towards their mother and child. Finally, one day she couldn't bear the fear in her heart anymore, and she ran to Duanyang Palace for help, but Qingchen guessed it One or two points, fearing that the second prince would be involved in a struggle that he shouldn't be involved in, and he would not be able to explain clearly in the future, so he begged the ancestors to temporarily take the second prince to Yongshou Palace to raise him on the grounds that the empress dowager was lonely.

In the blink of an eye, it was mid-December, and it had been more than 20 days since Xiao Jue led his troops to set off. During these 20 days, Qingchen knelt down in front of the Buddha and prayed devoutly every day. She is still a sincere vegetarian and worships the Buddha, hoping that the gods and Buddhas can protect him and return him safely.

That day the emperor left court early, and when he came to her Duanyang Palace, he was not wearing a dragon robe, but was dressed like a commoner.

Qingchen was a little surprised to see him like that. The emperor's clothes, even if they were ordinary clothes, were embroidered with dragon patterns. His clothes today looked like an ordinary schoolteacher, but he was clothed in a blue shirt, but he still concealed Can't help the innate luxury temperament.

"This is the emperor?"

Xiao Jun motioned to Fu Quan behind him to hand over the things prepared in his hand to Yun Lan, and then said with a smile: "We are not having breakfast in the palace today, we should go out to eat. Didn't I say that I will take you out when I have time?" Let's go, today is fine."

Qingchen really didn't expect that at this time, the emperor would still be in the mood to go out for a stroll. The current situation is so tense, and some things are ready to go. At this time, even if he has this elegant mood, she has no intention to accompany him.

After thinking about it, Qingchen said with some displeasure: "Your Majesty, Xiao Hong is ambitious. Since he has already rebelled, there will be no lack of his eyeliner in the capital. If the Emperor goes out at this time, isn't he deliberately putting himself in danger? No matter what the Emperor is, What do you think, anyway, the concubine does not agree, if the ancestors find out, I don't know how to blame the concubine for being ignorant, at this time, if you don't want to kill the emperor with evil intentions, then you are a fool No, the concubine will not go."
