The Biography of Concubine Wen Xi in Qing Palace

Chapter 685 Worship
On the third day of the seventh month of the 30th year of Kangxi, the royal family set off to live in Changchun Garden.

The concubines went together, and the concubine Jia stayed in the Forbidden City due to pregnancy and the concubine due to illness.

Today's Zhuo Lan only treats Wanyan as a pawn who was thrown into the Infernal Purgatory, and has no fear of her at all.

Yuanyuan has been the favorite of the special family since she married into the East Palace, although she is only a concubine, she has completely put on Fujin's airs.

Every morning, I would enter Yongshou Palace to pay respects to Zhuo Lan. The master and servant closed the door, plotting some shady things.

At night, the prince, who was full of vicious tricks, couldn't help himself.

The days were so peaceful day by day. On August [-]th, it was Sun Ye's birthday sacrifice, and Wannai entrusted the ceremony to get some ingots from the House of Internal Affairs to pay, and closed the palace gates. Worship in the courtyard.

It was a secret matter, but the head of the House of Internal Affairs had already been bought by Zhuo Lan.

He told Zhuo Lan about this in private, and Zhuo Lan broke out immediately and led a group of palace people to break the gate of Changchun Palace.

The people of Changchun Palace wanted to stop her, but the emperor is not here now, and concubine Jia is dealing with the affairs of the sixth palace, who can stop her?

The palace people from the two palaces gathered around the door, almost raising their hands.

But at this time, a faint and solemn voice came from the courtyard: "Concubine Jia will come when she wants to, why stop her?"

After saying this, Jinli angrily let people in.

Entering the palace, I saw Wanyu moved a red lotus wooden chair and sat in the courtyard, surrounded by a ball of fire, Yun Chan and Shuang Ruo were adding ghost paper to the fire ball.

Zhuo Lan sized her up, and after curtly bowing to Wan Lai, she said, "My concubine invites the imperial concubine to Jin An. What are you doing?"

Wanyu didn't even look at her, she just looked at the fire ball quietly, and said calmly: "I haven't seen you for a few months, is Concubine Jia blind? I can't see what I'm doing."

Hearing the stern words, Zhuo Lan didn't respond well: "Burning paper money privately is a big offense in the palace. Does the concubine at her age not even understand the rules? The concubine is now assisting the sixth palace. I saw it, so I can't just sit idly by." After she finished speaking, she called out to the people in the palace behind: "Come here! Put that fire on me!"

The person was about to move, but seeing Shuangruo standing up abruptly and facing Zhuo Lan with a cold face, he scolded: "I am afraid that the concubine Jia has made a wrong idea. Our empress is a noble concubine, how can this Changchun Palace allow you to be presumptuous?"

Zhuo Lan let out a muffled snort, and said recklessly: "I have been favored by you, so I can't just sit idly by and ignore the wrong things. The imperial concubine is ill and confused, I am."

"Concubine Jia has a huge belly and is still busy staring at what wrong things I have done in her own palace. It is really hard work for you." Wan Yu sneered and raised her eyebrows, her eyes were fixed on Zhuo Lan's face with disdain: "Today It was the ancestor Gongjing concubine Borjigit’s life sacrifice, and the Empress Dowager Renxian couldn’t worship the Buddha, so she asked me to express her condolences for the deceased in the palace, what’s wrong with that?”

"Concubine Gong Jing?" Zhuo Lan took two steps forward, looked at Wan Yu in dismay and said, "I only know that today is the life sacrifice of Shen Ye, the prodigal son, but I don't know that it is also Concubine Gong Jing's?"

Wannai glanced at her, and took a lot of money and threw it into the fire ball: "I don't know when Concubine Gongjing's birth sacrifice is, but I don't blame you if you make a joke. If you don't believe it, you can go Ask the Empress Dowager, seeing what happened to you today, how will the Empress Dowager give you a good face. Besides, Concubine Jia really has a deep affection for General Shen, and even his birthday is so precious. It shows the deep affection."

"Your imperial concubine, don't talk nonsense!" Zhuo Lan panicked, and hurriedly rejected her words: "You talk about your concubine's reputation for no reason. When the emperor finds out about it, you must seek an explanation for your concubine."

"Then you go to Changchun Garden and tell him. He is so happy that he doesn't want to leave at the moment. If you can come back to the palace to ask for an explanation for you because of your few words, it will be considered your ability."

The flames reflected a warm yellow color on Wanyu's cheeks. The corners of her eyes and brows were expressionless, but Zhuo Lan looked at her again and again, always feeling that she was different from before.

Instead of being pleased, she was humiliated by Wannai, and she had to leave in a huff like a beaten rat.

The palace gate closed with a loud voice, Wan Yu burned the last handful of ingots, and murmured to the sky: "Happy birthday."

Yun Chan helped her up, and whispered in her ear: "Your Majesty is very thoughtful, that Concubine Gong Jing was not favored by the late emperor, and even her concubine history couldn't record her birthday, but your Majesty knows."

"What do I know?" Wan Lai sneered: "When she lives and dies has nothing to do with me, she's just cheating on Concubine Jia."

"Your Majesty, aren't you afraid that she really went to Ningshou Palace to ask the Empress Dowager?"

"How dare she?" Wan Yan said with resentment, she frowned and said: "The Queen Mother looks down on her, and she is eager to persuade the Emperor to depose her. With her temperament, do you think she is willing to see the Queen Mother?"

In August, the hot days are getting weaker, rushing to the brilliant yellow of the whole courtyard, and it seems that autumn is about to enter.

Wanyu didn't go out of the palace very often, and most of the time she just sat under the Ling window, her gaze was fixed on the Magnolia magnolia plant directly facing the dormitory.

Seeing it prosper, seeing it fail.

Day after day, it seems that I knew the result, but I was looking forward to something.

On the night of the full moon in August and fifteenth, Zhuo Lan held a family banquet in Yongshou Palace. Except for the Queen Mother and Wannai, all the concubines and concubines in the palace celebrated together.

There are countless years to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival in the palace. It is a day of reunion, but it becomes more and more difficult to reunite every year.

Yes, the people she cared about left her one by one.

Nowadays, being alone is loneliness and reunion.The festive festival is too much but the same.

Hearing the faint sound of joy coming from afar, Wanyu and Yin had dinner at the same table with Yunchan and Shuangruo.

According to the rules of the Forbidden City, slaves and masters are not allowed to eat at the same table.

But today's Wannao, who has been with the two of them for several years, already regards them as her sisters, and doesn't care about those etiquette rules.

After dinner, Yun Chan suggested that she could cut window grilles to pass the time when she was bored.

Seeing Yin is happy, Wan Yu agrees.

The crowd held scissors and red paper for a long while, and the two immortals reconciled, the lotus and stalks were clean, the butterflies danced and the bees were busy, and the colorful flowers were clustered.

Although it was a trick he was used to, it aroused Yin's interest, and he stood under the candlelight with great concentration, cutting it like Shuang Ruo.

Wan Yu looked at him, feeling a little relieved in her heart.

Fortunately, she finally protected her child to grow up safely.

Just at this time, Jinli broke the rules and stumbled into the room. When people saw Wanyu, they smashed their knees to the ground, and their joyful brows and eyes became wrinkled.He bowed to Wanyu again and again, stammering: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty has been found! I have been found!"

Wan Yu was shocked, her body was slightly limp, she almost slipped down the warm seat and fell to the ground.

Yun Chan helped her to sit up, and then she heard her eagerly say: "Is it true?"

Jinli smashed his forehead to the ground, and said repeatedly: "Really! According to my mother's guess, I found him in a nun's nunnery after searching for several months! Now Master Wu Lu is escorting him back to Beijing, and he will be able to return to Beijing in five days." Arrive in the capital!"

Wanyu was extremely emotional, trembling her lips and teeth, and said with a difficult smile: "Okay, okay! After waiting for so long and suffering for so long, it's finally worth it!"

"Yinzuo, Yunxi, Lingyou! Look carefully, carefully, and see clearly!"

She clenched her hands into fists, unable to hold back her tears.
