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

Chapter 458 Bloody Birthday Feast (13)
The queen smiled bitterly and said: "You are only worried that the emperor will be dissatisfied with you, but what I am worried about is that the harem will not be peaceful, and the emperor will not be able to concentrate on governing the government. The concubines in the harem are very jealous. If you don't severely punish them and set an example for them, I don’t know what more outrageous things will happen in the future.”

Concubine Ning followed beside the queen, and said with some shame: "The concubine is stupid, after all, it is the empress who thinks more long-term."

Zhihua supported He Shuyi and came out with the chattering crowd. Ye Hanyu walked quickly with a livid face, refusing to say anything, and no one wanted to talk to anyone. When she returned to Yilanxuan, she couldn't wait to ask: "Are you saying that the person Concubine Rong saw was you?"

Although Zhihua was also terrified, but thinking about Qingchen's attitude at that time, in order to reassure Ye Hanyu's heart, he said euphemistically: "Didn't you say that you didn't see clearly, and even if you saw the slave girl, so what? Stand up to testify against the young master? She has such a good relationship with the young master, it is right to hide it for us, and she has nothing to lose, right? The emperor likes her so much, even if she takes the blame for the young master, the emperor will find a way to protect her. Since it's like this, what else is the young master worried about?"

Ye Hanyu sat under the window with a pale complexion, still uneasy, she always felt guilty for letting Qingchen take such a big risk.It's just that Shu Guiyi is in the limelight now, if Feng Wanrong is added to help her, how can she cope?
"Now I only hope that Concubine Ruorong can really see that it's you. She can understand my reasons for doing this. After all, I have no choice but to think about the future of both of us. I'm sorry for how much Shu Guiyi and the others have done. For our affairs, it is considered benevolent for me to do so.”

"What the young master said is, look at Xue Wanrong's methods, how could Concubine Rong not know?" Seeing that she was so sad, Zhihua poured a cup of tea from the table and handed it to her, and persuaded in a low voice: "Drink a cup, young master." Let's take a tea break. In the palace just now, the young master probably did not relax for a moment just like the slave. The slave asked Xiao Luzi to find someone outside the palace to order the shoes, and told him not to tell anyone From now on, no matter how hard the empress investigates, she won't be able to find out who the prince is, so the young master can rest assured. As for Concubine Rong, she didn't say anything today, and I believe she won't say it again in the future. What else should the young master worry about? Woolen cloth?"

"Although we didn't trap her into injustice, she took the risk for me after all. Otherwise, we might not be able to escape unscathed today. I always feel sorry for it. Forget it, wait a few days, and I'll talk to her personally Explain."

If Xue Wanrong hadn't changed Feng Wanrong's shoes again, and Qingchen refused to testify against Zhihua, unable to prove her innocence, she could only bear the crime for Ye Hanyu.Qingchen defended her so much, which made her both moved and uneasy.

Zhihua held Ye Hanyu's hand and said: "Young Master, you have to trust Mistress Rong, she will definitely understand my painstaking efforts. She has been schemed by Shu Guiyi in the open and in the dark, and she already hates her to the bone, even if she doesn't bother to play tricks on her." To plot against someone by means, but today Feng Wanrong encountered such a thing, and the slaves would not be happy if they didn't believe her. The young master is not wrong, so there is no need to worry about it."

Ye Hanyu sighed heavily, her tone full of helplessness and sentimentality, "I wish, I never thought I would get to where I am today, whether it is to preserve my honor or to win the emperor's tenderness for a moment, I can't tell now Cleared up..."

After the concubines dispersed, as soon as they came out of the Jinhua Palace, Sang Wanrong said to her maid with infinite emotion: "What Xue Wanrong did today is not a bad thing, but it is not as cunning as Concubine Ning. Don't look at her today. She didn't say a few words in the hall, it was because she didn't want to steal the queen's limelight in front of everyone, and she didn't want to offend people casually. You can see that she only said a few words, but they all hit the vital point. I found the crux of the matter on the silk thread, and Concubine Rong might be in for some serious misfortune today, I really don't know why Concubine Ning wants to help her like this, what good does it do her to leave such a disaster!"

Xia Tong saw that she became more angry after talking about it, and was afraid that she would anger him, so he hurriedly comforted him: "Whether it is Xue Wanrong or Concubine Ning, the slaves think that they are not as smart as the young master. At the beginning, the young master just raised a little bit, and Xue Wanrong staged it." Such a big show, although not as expected, but it also hindered Feng Wanrong's favor, and it wasn't all useless efforts."

Sang Wanrong snorted lightly, stared at Xia Tong sharply, and warned: "I told Xue Wanrong at the beginning, I didn't say anything, and I'm still telling you like this today, I didn't say anything! Xue Wanrong no matter what she wants I have nothing to do with framing Concubine Rong or Feng Wanrong, do you remember that?"

Xia Tong's complexion changed slightly, and he nodded hurriedly, "Your maidservant, remember, this maidservant deserves to die, I said something wrong, and please don't be as knowledgeable as my maidservant."

Sang Wanrong snorted softly, squinted her eyes, and said with an indescribable sinister meaning in her tone: "Xue Wanrong is also useless, if Qinxue died a few days ago, there is no need to be with her." The trouble of Yunxin's confrontation is not her fault. Even if Concubine Rong jumped into the Yellow River, she would not be able to clean up, and she might be charged with murder. She foolishly left that little palace maid, but paid for herself The future of a lifetime, and the next one at the Huanyi Bureau, can be quite tormented. This birthday of Shu Guiyi is really something she will never forget."

Xia Tong had just been stabbed in the eye, and now seeing the smug look on her face, he smiled obsequiously and said: "No matter how powerful Concubine Ning is, she is not as clever as the young master, and she doesn't need to do anything by herself to push so many people down." Once the water is filled, the concubine's seat will be vacant again, and the chance of the young master to serve the bed will increase by [-]%."

"This is not the best method. The real ability is to make the emperor think about it even if he can't see it. Just like Concubine Rong, she looks very indifferent to the emperor, but look at the emperor, she is not like a treasure. Hold it in the palm of your hand! Ever since the incident in the Buddhist hall, the emperor was afraid that she would be wronged, and sent all kinds of good things to her palace like water, which made many people's eyes red. Today's incident, everyone is talking about it Don't say it, I'm afraid I wish her bad luck."

Sang Wanrong flicked a leaf that fell on her shoulder with a handkerchief, stopped and looked in the direction of Tonghua Palace, and thoughtfully said: "So we have to do it together, it's already this hour, the emperor might stay If you have dinner at her place, you go back and cook a pot of ginseng soup that soothes the nerves, and I will personally deliver it to her later, the emperor will always be happy when he sees it."

Xia Tong smiled and said: "The young master is thoughtful, why didn't the servants think of this level. When others are trying to harm her, if the emperor sees the young master being so considerate to Rong Rong, he will always remember the goodness of the empress." .”
