The Biography of Concubine Wen Xi in Qing Palace

Chapter 557
In the morning of the second day, Rong Yue ordered Que Zhen to go to the Palace of Compassion and Ning to deliver a top-quality brocade silk satin to the Empress Dowager.

Unexpectedly, at noon, the brocade was returned by the nuns of the Palace of Compassion, and they only said that the brocade was too luxurious, and the Empress Dowager was used to eating vegetarian food and reciting Buddha, so she didn't like to use it.

Where did Rong Yue not understand the meaning of the words?The previous one saw her wearing Sichuan brocade, so why is she eating vegetarian food, praying to Buddha, and becoming diligent and thrifty today?It's just that the emperor doesn't want to see her, and it's just following the emperor's wish.

Mammy replied that she thought Rong Yue would be embarrassed, but Rong Yue not only didn't show any embarrassment, but smiled happily and rewarded Mammy with some small silver coins, and said that she should learn from the Empress Dowager, and urged Mammy again and again Mama went back to take good care of the Empress Dowager.

After seeing off the nanny, Quezhen came close to her and said secretly: "Your Majesty's guess is correct, the Empress Dowager really doesn't think about how you took care of her sick in the past, even though the emperor and you are born together. Cool you down."

Yun Jin, who was returned by the Compassionate Palace, said coldly in Rong Yue's hand: "The grandfather and grandson have always had the same temper, so I think I'm blind? But if there is a benefit, it will come, and if there is no benefit, it will leave. Such a good material It won't be our loss if she returns." She paused, her gaze fixed on the birthday pattern on the fabric, and she said with a half-smile: "Is the powder that can cause headaches mixed with Lagu Su Ma?" In daily spices?"

Quezhen nodded and said: "Of course, the Empress Dowager doesn't like to use incense, but Aunt Su Ma is a particular person. When the servant handed the brocade to her, she left the servant waiting outside the palace, and the servant of the Palace of Compassionate Ning followed you If you are used to it, you will naturally know where Aunt Su Ma's residence is. The medicinal powder is mixed with spices and soaked in Aunt Su Ma's body. She serves the Empress Dowager's side every day. Do you worry about the time when she is not sick?"

"If you are sick, you always need to be treated. My palace has been cared for by the Aixinjueluo family for many years. I am loved by the emperor and appreciated by the empress dowager. Naturally, I have to take good care of them both." Tore through the brocade material: "Si elder brother moved to elder brother's care, can that bitch Defei often visit him?"

"I go often, but why would the fourth elder brother talk to her? On the contrary, he only thinks about my mother."

Rong Yue nodded in relief and said with a smile: "This cheap son treats me well, I have time to go to Elder Brother's place to have a look at him, and let him know about Ben Gong's current plight. He has a lot of filial piety, if he speaks to the emperor to persuade him It is easy to ask the emperor to forgive me."

Que Zhen thought about Rong Yue's words for a moment, and timidly asked: "Your Majesty, even if the fourth elder brother speaks, the emperor now"

"What do you know?" Rong Yue glanced at her, and said coldly: "He spoke on behalf of Ben Gong, and this matter will definitely reach the ears of Concubine De. As long as that bitch Concubine De is unhappy, Niu Hulu will be unhappy The two of them are not happy, but this palace is extremely happy! Besides, is there any clue about the matter that this palace ordered you to investigate?"

Quezhen faltered and said: "Princess Yunxi's death really has no reason, and it is precisely because of this that she was dragged out of the empress because she found a red crane in our palace."

"It is not difficult to find Hedinghong in Chengqian Palace, but it is very difficult to poison the princess in front of so many people at the banquet. If Niu Hulu did not do this Next, it's Wuya's lowly servant girl!" Rong Yue took charge of the case and said angrily, "I suspected Niu Hulu's imitation of Wu Meiniang in murdering her own daughter and framing the queen, but think about it carefully. Thinking, if she has such means, she won't be so oppressed by this palace all these years. If it wasn't for her, she would only be a lowly maidservant!"

"Concubine De?" Que Zhen asked in surprise, "Why did she do this?"

Rong Yue snorted: "How does this palace know what the bitch is thinking? But if it's her, the palace will be even more lively in the future."

That night, Chengqian Palace turned off the lights early, but Ran Rongyue sat quietly on the warm seat, dressed neatly and delicately.

She closed her eyes slightly, recalling the appearance of the past, with a smile on the corner of her mouth and tears at the corner of her eyes.

At the end of summer and the beginning of autumn, there was already a chill in the night, she wrapped herself in a cloak, and shivered uncontrollably.

The rapid loss of her body made her deeply understand the fact that even if all the imperial doctors said that she was fine, she also knew that her time was probably numbered.

A few days ago, all the members of the Chengqian Palace and the palace were sent to the Punishment Department. When she was left alone to face the huge and empty bedroom, she often had nightmares and couldn't sleep at night.

She dreamed that many lives were lost in her hands. Everyone stood in a row, Yide, Wen Yin, and Lian Xin were at the front, and they seemed to be looking at her and laughing.

That smile was bloodless and daunting.

Waking up with a start, covered in cold sweat, touching her loose and wrinkled skin, she couldn't even cry.

In her life, she was famous, well-read poetry and books, knowledgeable, gentle and demure.

How to get to today step by step, I don't even have the courage to look back and think about it.

Just as she was feeling sad, she suddenly heard a knocking sound coming from outside the palace gate. Not long after, the eunuch reported that the Empress Dowager was in a bad mood again, and she was in a hurry to make Rong Yue go to the Palace of Compassion and Peace.

Rong Yue responded with a smile, ordered someone to light the palace lanterns, looked at herself in the mirror with new rouge, looked at her appearance in the mirror, and smiled sinisterly.

When entering the Palace of Mercy Ning, the Empress Dowager was tossing and turning on the couch, whimpering and moaning, Rong Yue walked up to her in two quick steps, took off her armor and kneaded her temples, and pretended to be eager to ask the servants beside her: "It's fine in the morning, why is it so serious?"

The leading aunt was also extremely anxious: "If you go back to the imperial concubine, the empress dowager has already settled down, but she suddenly broke out in the middle of the night, which made the servants panic. Now Aunt Su Ma has gone to the Qianqing Palace to invite the emperor to come up." gone."

"Don't look at what time it is, isn't the emperor going to court tomorrow?" Rong Yue reprimanded sternly: "Hurry up and find La Aunt Su Ma back, it will disturb the emperor and the palace, so the empress dowager will not be safe. Uneasy?"

These words came to the ears of the Empress Dowager, seeing her struggling to get up, she quickly waved her hands, and squeezed out a sentence from her mouth with a painful expression: "According to what the imperial concubine said, go find Su Ma and come back, don't make trouble!"

Rong Yue waited attentively for the Empress Dowager to lie down again, and said in a gentle voice: "The Empress Dowager is at ease, there are concubines here."

Just as he was talking, the palace servants brought warm water to serve the Empress Dowager, Rong Yue simply took it with one hand, quickly added a little powder hidden in the sleeves in advance, quickly stirred the jade spoon, a spoonful Feed the Empress Dowager with a spoonful, and when everything was ready, began to massage the Empress Dowager's acupoints.

"Empress Dowager, please relax, with the concubine here, the pain will soon be gone."
