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

Chapter 1206 Hidden Murder (13)
The tortoise shell sneered and said: "Isn't it? The empress alone is in great danger, so the emperor cannot easily abolish the empress, and it is not easy to overthrow her. What's more, this empress doted on the harem, and now she has both sons and daughters." Needless to say, the prince, even that little princess is regarded as the jewel in the palm of the emperor's palm. I have never seen a woman as powerful as her.

With her ruling the Sixth Palace, one can imagine how difficult the next thing we have to do is.Amber, the master is about to enter the palace, the failure to clear the obstacles for the master is due to our incompetence as slaves, the most important thing now is to hide our identity, so that we can serve the master secretly. "

Hu Po hurriedly nodded and said, "Yes, this servant knows."

After dinner, the emperor was worried about Heng'er's injury, so he went to Concubine Ning again. Yixuan was still asleep, and Qingchen was worried, so he and Gu Yunfeng kept guard in the east side hall. In the middle of the night, Qinxue came The report said that Jinghan had a high fever, after all, she was a child, and the fire today frightened her.

Qingchen carried Jinghan to Yixuan's room, took good care of the two children, and didn't close his eyes all night.At dawn, Yixuan woke up, Jinghan also showed signs of fever, Qingchen felt relieved, but Heng'er in Menghuangxuan still didn't wake up.

In the blink of an eye, it was the Dragon Boat Festival, and Qingchen was sitting on the warm kang, holding a pair of exquisite embroidered shoes, and strung the last pearl on the tassels, and the shoes were considered finished.

Jinghan stood beside her rare and quiet, holding an embroidered shoe in her hand, looking left and right, she could not put it down, stroking the ruby ​​green jade on the shoe, and said happily: "These shoes are really beautiful. Are the beads on the tassel held by Fengkou the two that my father rewarded me?"

The two pearls that Xiao Jun gave to Jinghan were too big to be decorated on shoes, and they were too extravagant, so Qingchen asked someone to put them away for her first, and used two round pearls replace.

Qingchen thought for a while and said, "No, these shoes were not made for you, but for your cousin Wanyue. Don't you like wearing embroidered shoes?"

When Jinghan heard that it wasn't for her, she lowered her eyes in displeasure, but she didn't let go of the shoes in her hand. She touched the gemstone on the phoenix tail with her little hand, obviously wanting it very much, but said euphemistically: " Cousin Wanyue's feet are not this size, she can't fit in these shoes, they are too small."

Qingchen glanced at her, and continued: "No, the shoes that the queen mother sent someone to get from the Mu's house, how could they not fit? I was afraid that she wouldn't be able to wear them, so they made them bigger on purpose."

Jinghan didn't say a word, and said for a long time: "Sister Wanyue said that she doesn't like rubies, and she doesn't like emeralds inlaid on her shoes, because it's easy to break when walking."

Qingchen smiled slightly and asked, "Really? Why hasn't the queen mother heard about it?"

Jinghan rolled her eyes and said seriously: "Sister Wanyue told me in private, how could the queen mother know? Only the two of us know."

Just at this time, Qinxue came in and reminded: "Your Majesty, the spices and silk rewards to the palaces have been distributed, and all the concubines are already waiting in the imperial garden. It's time for your empress to change."

Qingchen glanced at Jinghan calmly again, smiled knowingly, then got up and went to Xinuange to change clothes.

Jinghan saw that there was no one else here, only Jinxiu was left serving in the room, so she ordered: "I want to eat rose cake, go to the kitchen and get me some."

Jinxiu had already seen through her small thoughts, and walked out with a smile.

She just came out of the warm pavilion, and Jinghan quickly kicked on the little boots on her feet, reached for the other embroidered shoe, tried them on her feet and they just fit, then ran out.

Jinxiu came out of the small kitchen with the pastry, and seeing her running out with the pair of embroidered shoes on her feet, she hurriedly handed the things in her hand to Jinyu and said, "I'm going to chase the princess, you can put the pastry back."

During the Dragon Boat Festival, there are no major sacrificial activities in the palace. They just imitate the outsiders and throw some zongzi, melons and fruits into the lake to meet the scene. In addition, every palace will hang calamus and mugwort leaves and other herbs on the door to drive away evil spirits and avoid poison.

On this day, most of the concubines in the palace will make new purses to wear on their bodies, which contain various spices, but most of them are mainly mugwort leaves and insect-repelling herbs.Not to mention children, it has become a custom to wear purses on this day.

Those concubines who have princes like to get together on this day, and sew a few purses for others to play with, which is also a little kindness for the children.

After Qingchen came out after changing his clothes, he saw Jinyu following up and said, "Madam, the princess has gone out to play, and Jinxiu is following. The princess is wearing new shoes, she seems very happy."

Qinxue chuckled and asked: "Your Majesty is really good at predicting things, how do you know that the princess has changed her temper today?"

Qingchen raised her lips slightly, and said helplessly: "Jinghan is a child who fights, you see, as long as she is here, she will not allow the emperor to get close to other princes, even if she just says a few more words, in the end it is still The emperor spoiled her.

Today, if this pair of shoes were made for her, she might not be willing to wear them even if she liked them, but if they were said to be given to others, she would definitely not be happy, but she had no reason to stop her, so she just wore them and ran up.How can I give away the shoes I have worn? "

Yun Lan also smiled and said: "Isn't it? The princess is smart. If the maidservant's guess is correct, she must go to the emperor first when she puts on these shoes. As long as the emperor praises her for her good-looking clothes, the empress has no reason to blame her." her."

"Let her go. The weather is fine today. Let's go to the garden first."

When Qingchen arrived at Shufang Pavilion, he saw Yao Shuyi, Xin Shuyuan, Xiao Jieyu and He Shurong were all there, others were playing by the lake, and these people gathered together to sew purses for the princes.

Seeing Qingchen coming, several people got up to salute hurriedly, Qingchen said casually: "Let's all sit down, there is no need to be formal, I also want to join in the fun, but the needlework is not as good as you, it's just a treat, everyone don't dislike it .”

Yao Shuyi hurriedly laughed and said: "The empress is too humble, it is a great blessing for the children to have the blessing of the empress, how dare they dislike the empress's wishes?"

There were a lot of colorful silks and satins on the table, as well as various herbs and spices. Everyone was talking and laughing while doing needlework. Because today is the Dragon Boat Festival, although Rong'er was sent to the Mission Hall by the emperor for a few days, she can still come back and meet He Shurong. get together.

A few princes were playing not far away, and Yixuan was tired from playing, so he wanted to come over and ask for a cup of tea.Qingchen saw that besides the jade pendant and pouch on his body, there was also a hollowed-out silver incense ball, so he asked, "Who gave this to you?"

Yixuan was tired from running, sweat was all over his forehead, he was probably extremely thirsty, he took a few sips before putting down his teacup and said: "Mother asked the Ministry of Internal Affairs to make it together. Several princes have it, and Jinghan also has it."
