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

Chapter 1060
"Yes, I obey." Xiao Xiangzi knew that she would no longer listen to his excuses, so he turned around and backed out solemnly.

After a while, Yun Lan came in and said: "Madam, He Wanyi is here, do you want to see her?"

"It's her?" Qingchen couldn't figure it out, and said to himself: "I just came back, and she has been asking to see you several times, what's the big deal?" Then he asked: "Yun Lan, In the past two years when I was not in the palace, you watched with cold eyes, who is the person He Wanyi is loyal to? Previously, the palace was too tired to deal with the queen and Wei Ronghua, so I didn't pay attention to her. I don't know how this person's city is. ?”

Yun Lan shook her head lightly, and said in a low voice: "The empress has not been in the palace for the past two years, He Wanyi has been keeping herself safe and living her life behind closed doors in obscurity, as if there is no one in the palace, if she really has any ambitions, empress Isn't it the best time when she's not around? Why didn't she take the opportunity to win over the emperor like others did, instead she was silent for so long, but the maidservant couldn't figure it out, she came here after so long, so she couldn't wait a few more days, Give the empress some time to catch her breath?"

Qingchen nodded thoughtfully, and ordered: "Let her in, let's listen to what she has to say first."

"The servant girl is going to invite He Wanyi in." Yun Lan opened the bead curtain and walked out as she spoke.

After a while, I heard Yun Lan's respectful and gentle voice say: "My lord, please go this way, your empress is in Dongnuan Pavilion."

"I'm sorry." The woman's voice was soft and gentle, which made people feel very comfortable.

Qingchen looked towards the door in response to the sound, and saw Yun Lan walking in with a woman in a lake-green palace dress with floral patterns and dark patterns. When she stepped into the threshold, she first smiled at her, and then knocked respectfully three times The great gift of nine bows, said gently: "Concubine He's Wanyi Yishan pays respects to the imperial concubine, and the imperial concubine is blessed and safe."

The material of the clothes is not good, but the dress is extremely refreshing, making people look extraordinarily comfortable, Qingchen took a closer look at her, and saw that she was wearing a silver double-button bracelet wrapped with silk on her wrist, and several jade hairpins on her hair. Simple and elegant, two gold-plated Chuanhuaxizhubuyao, neither eye-catching nor exquisite.Sweeping brows, bright eyes and white teeth, and fair skin that can be broken by blows, among the concubines in the harem, her beauty is considered to be the best.What's more, she knows where her strengths are. Such a clean and refreshing dress, which is neither ostentatious nor extravagant, will not be buried among thousands of flowers.

Some people are like this, even if they don't have decent and gorgeous clothes, they still won't bury their beauty.

This first impression was good, Qingchen said with a gentle smile: "He Wanyi doesn't need to be so polite, hurry up and invite Yun Lan to serve tea."

Yun Lan first helped her up with a smile, then brought a brocade stool to invite her to sit down, and then served hot tea.

He Wanyi took the tea and put it on the small table at the side, and said with a little apology: "Concubines are not blessed. It took me so long to come to pay respects to the imperial concubine. It's not that concubines are disrespectful. Unfortunately, it was delayed, so please don't blame the imperial concubine."

"How could it be? I'm very happy if you have the heart." Even though she knew that she might have ulterior motives in coming this trip, but she stretched out her hand not to hit the smiling person, Qingchen still treated each other gently and courteously, "You guys just entered the palace At that time, Bengong was not feeling well, so I couldn't get together with all the younger sisters, and I always felt deeply regretful. Later, due to various trivial matters, it was difficult for us to meet each other, but now it's better, you are willing to come to my Duanyang Palace, We finally got to know each other. Seeing my sister's lovely appearance, I am really happy in my heart."

He Wanyi lowered her head shyly, and said softly: "It is said that imperial concubines are gentle and amiable. When I saw you today, I realized that the concubine really lived up to her reputation. She was a little nervous at first, but now she feels at ease. Unlike some Human beings have a virtuous name, and when they really get along with each other, they feel that they are deeply scheming and unapproachable."

Qingchen glanced at Yun Lan secretly, knowing that she was going to get to the point, so he followed her words and asked with a smile: "I don't understand what my sister said, but is it not useful to have a conflict with someone?"

He Wanyi straightened the handkerchief in her hand, and sighed softly: "Your Majesty's question like this will make the concubine not know what to say. The concubine is helpless in this palace, and she doesn't have any friends to befriend, not the concubine." The concubine refuses, but dares. People's hearts are unpredictable, and if you are always humble, you may not be able to live in harmony, so how dare you have quarrels with others?"

Qingchen could hear the meaning in her words, knew her intentions, pretended not to notice, and still followed her thoughts in a gentle voice: "The most important thing in communicating with others is to be honest, if you can't do it yourself, how can you expect others to treat you sincerely?" ?My palace always treats people with a clear conscience, we can't control what others do, but as long as we are open-minded, at least we won't suffer from the torment of our conscience."

He Wanyi nodded, looking very educated, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty is right, the concubines have recorded it. Madam, do you know where all the concubines are now?"

Qingchen was slightly startled, thought for a while and said meaningfully: "Concubine Ning doesn't care about the trivial matters of the Six Palaces now, so don't you all go to chat with her? I didn't realize before that Concubine Ning's popularity is so good."

There was some irony in these words, and she would not be surprised if Concubine Ning really formed a faction to deal with her.

He Wanyi's eyes deepened, she shook her head and said: "No, my mother thought things too simply, and they made an appointment to go to the ancestor's palace."

Qingchen's hand wrapped around the veil suddenly froze for a moment, his brows gathered slightly imperceptibly, and then he smiled lightly and said: "They went to pay their respects to the ancestors, and they didn't call me to the palace, probably because Maybe it's because I just returned to the palace. Since everyone else has gone, why don't you He Wanyi go?"

"Because the concubine knows the purpose of their visit, but the concubine doesn't bother to be with them, so I want to remind the empress." After He Wanyi finished speaking, she boldly raised her eyes to meet hers, and said sincerely: "Empress, two Years are neither too long nor too short. When you first returned to the palace, how can you really understand the changes in people's hearts during this period? Don't talk about others, just talk about your best sister, Concubine Xian. You trust her, but she just Is it really that worthy of your trust?"

Qingchen looked down, and asked with some displeasure: "What exactly do you want to say?"

He Wanyi stood up and knelt down and said: "If my concubine does not meet the Ming Lord, I would rather stay silent and close the door. Now that the empress is back, the concubine has nothing else to ask for, but is willing to be the arm of the empress and do the best for her. He calls it the empress." If you can sing like a phoenix, as long as you protect your concubines and live safely in the palace, then your concubines will be satisfied."

Qingchen caressed the golden hibiscus flowers embroidered on the handkerchief with downcast eyes, touched the delicate embroidery over and over again, and asked without emotion: "If you want to grow old in peace, even if you don't rely on me It can be done, why must I be my arm? Besides, if others are not worthy of trust, why should I trust you?"
