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

Chapter 1043 Returning to the Palace (6)
Qingchen was a little dumbfounded, it turned out that he was so unhappy because of this, he was a little out of breath, she supported his body with her hands and said with difficulty: "The concubine is not getting up early, the emperor has always been diligent, today is for the sake of the minister. Aren't you afraid that the ministers will be dissatisfied when the concubine quits court?"

Seeing her slightly embarrassed look, Xiao Jun arched her chest slightly, so as not to put all her strength on her body, and bowed her head to kiss her without answering, which made the two of them panting. Unable to control herself anymore, Qing Chen hurriedly begged for mercy: "The emperor please spare the concubine, the maids are waiting outside for the emperor to get up and wash up, and lunch is ready, the emperor should stop making trouble."

Xiao Jun's breathing was still a little unsteady, but she didn't seem to be joking: "From now on, I will take two days off every month to sleep in with you."

Qingchen thought for a while and said: "That's fine, no matter how busy the state affairs are, the emperor should have more rest time, otherwise he won't be exhausted? Now that the emperor is in charge of the universe, it can be said that there are a lot of troubles. If you don’t care about anything else, what you care about the most is the emperor’s health.”

"I'm sick of heart. When you come back, all my illnesses will disappear and I will feel refreshed." Xiao Jun sat up, Qingchen straightened her hair and clothes, and then called Yun Lan and Jin Xiu to come in to serve her. The emperor washes and changes clothes.

When the emperor came out, Qinxue and Jinyu had just set up lunch and just sat down when they heard a loud noise outside, "Your majesty, my concubine and others have something to see, please open the door with your majesty and empress."

Xiao Jun's face darkened, she raised her eyebrows and asked Fu Quan displeasedly: "What's going on, who is making noise outside?"

Fuquan glanced at Qingchen, and hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty, it is Shu Concubine and Yi Concubine who are kneeling outside with their concubines to beg to see the Emperor. They have been kneeling all morning. Later, the servants didn't dare to come in and disturb the emperor's rest."

Qing Chen lowered her eyes and remained silent, also wanting to see the emperor's attitude, seeing Xiao Jun impatiently ordered Fu Quan to say: "Go out and ask them what's important? Come back and tell me."

"Yes." Fuquan bowed and retreated.

Qingchen filled a bowl of purple ginseng and black chicken soup and put it in front of the emperor, and said softly: "Your majesty, it's not good for all the concubines. The concubines are afraid that their disturbance will make the emperor lose his appetite, so I want to wait until the emperor finishes using it up." Let’s talk about this matter after lunch, I didn’t expect...the concubine didn’t wake up the emperor before, but also wanted the emperor to sleep for a while, it has no other meaning, let alone deliberately conceal it.”

"I didn't say anything, so you don't have to worry about it." Seeing that Yun Lan had prepared the porridge for her, Xiao Jun shook her hand comfortingly and said, "Eat with peace of mind, you don't need to worry about the rest."

Qingchen softly pursed her lips, but she was secretly thinking about how to deal with the next thing. After a while, Fuquan came in and said, "Your Majesty, Concubine Shu and Concubine Yi said... say..."

"What?" The emperor seemed to have expected it in his heart, and his tone was a little displeased.

Fuquan deliberated over and over again, and said euphemistically: "It is said that the imperial concubine has been outside the palace for a long time, and the white jade is slightly flawed. Since the emperor has given the Baiyun Temple to pray, it is better to let the empress live there for a long time. After all, the empress should be credited for doing so much for the country and the people. .”

Qingchen snorted coldly in his heart, thinking it was really embarrassing for Fuquan, and it was really not easy to be able to speak so euphemistically.Didn't they just suspect that she had an affair with others and wanted the emperor to drive her out of the palace? They didn't know how ugly they said behind the scenes. Whenever she, Mu Qingchen showed a little timidity, it was just those gossips. It will also drive her to death.

With a "bang bang", Xiao Jun dropped the spoon in her hand, obviously angry, sullen with a gloomy face.Qingchen put the spoon back into his hand as if nothing had happened, and persuaded softly: "What should come will always come. It is better to talk about some things than to be awkward in the hearts of everyone. Since they have been kneeling all morning , then I don’t care about kneeling for a while, the emperor finishes his meal first, don’t make the dragon body angry because of some nonsense.”

Seeing her being able to deal with her so peacefully made him feel quite relieved. The emperor gently curled his lips, took two mouthfuls of soup, and heard the noise outside, then turned around and told Fuquan in a cold voice: "Since you are willing to kneel, then Let them kneel, Fuquan, go out and tell them to be quiet, don't make noise, Zhen and the imperial concubine can't even eat a meal in peace."

Fu Quan hurriedly responded, bowed and retreated to deliver a message. When he arrived at the gate of the palace, he looked at the ladies and ladies of all palaces who were kneeling on the ground. The emperor is having lunch, if the emperor loses his appetite and gets angry, it will do no good to anyone, will it?"

Yipin sneered and said, "We've been kneeling here all morning, but the imperial concubine shuts the palace door tightly and doesn't come out like a turtle. How long does she think she can hide? If you have the ability, just hide in it for the rest of your life and don't come out." Already!"

Concubine Shu also sneered coldly and said: "Isn't it? If I had done such a shameful thing, if it were me, I would have been killed by the head, and I still have the face to come back. I just returned to the palace last night and seduced the emperor." If you don't go to the early court, the imperial concubine is really capable, I'm afraid she didn't pray quietly for the past two years, she should learn how to seduce men!"

Wei Ronghua didn't dare to offend Qingchen now, but he had no choice but to come because he was restrained by others. He just knelt in a dilemma, but kept silent.

Listening to Yipin turning her head, she sneered: "Isn't Wei Ronghua always good at talking? How come you are now dumb if you let me talk? Could it be that your clever mouth will only confuse the emperor?"

Wei Ronghua had a bitter and helpless look on his face, knowing that he is not what he used to be. The old man of the Wei family is now working as a caregiver in the Ministry of Rites. If Wei Zheng dies, what else can she rely on?The queen's iceberg collapsed as soon as she said it would collapse. The child she gave birth to is in the hands of the concubine Xian. It is not easy to see her. Now that she has no one to rely on, what else can she use to compete with the concubine?

Wei Ronghua felt sore, and sighed softly: "The concubine has been confined for ten months, and she has not seen anyone for a long time, and even the sharpest blade has rusted. How can an extremely dull person say anything good, or don't say anything. .”

Concubine Shu glanced at her with great disdain, and said contemptuously: "Concubine Xian asked you to kneel, that's how you help her, don't think about whether you can't do well today, and whether the third prince will have something to eat tonight. So It’s hard for a small child to be starved.”

Hearing her say this, Wei Ronghua felt as uncomfortable as a thousand arrows piercing his heart. The feeling of hatred and powerlessness was even more tormented than letting her die, so he couldn't help but sat on the ground and sobbed.Thinking of his own child who was sent to the Xianfei Palace without even hugging him after he was born, who can experience the pain of separation between mother and child?
