Qing Palace - Biography of Concubine Wan

Chapter 185 Returning to the Forbidden City (2)
Hearing her talking about Yangzhou, Qingru also remembered something, hugged Xuanye on her knees and sat down and said to Yueling: "I remember that your ama is the magistrate of Yangzhou. I heard about him when I was in Yangzhou that day. You were taken to the Ministry of Criminal Justice for trial on suspicion of bribery, and until I came back, Zhou Tongzhi was still in charge of the magistrate's yamen, how is your Ama doing now, have you been convicted?"

To her surprise, Yue Ling's expression was relaxed: "Sister, don't worry, my Ama is fine. A few days ago, my mother-in-law sent me a letter, saying that she has gone back to Yangzhou with my Ama." Now, he is still his magistrate!"

"Oh? He's alright?" Some words seemed to be unspoken. Yeda's reputation in Yangzhou is not very good, at least that's what she heard. It seems impossible to say that he didn't take bribes at all. If It doesn't matter if he is reduced to a commoner, but he is actually reinstated as an official.

Yue Ling said with a smile: "It's true. Speaking of which, it's really thanks to the help of Concubine Zhen, she is really a good person!" Then she cried herself in the garden, how to let Concubine Zhen see, She also told everything about how she tried to help her father get rid of the crime.

Qing Ru could not help but frown when she finished her sentence. When did Concubine Zhen become so kind, she could see clearly how Concubine Zhen stepped on Concubine Ning's shoulders to climb up in the past, but now she is Suddenly being so kind to Yueling, could it be because of a moment of kindness?Or because of fate?

At this moment, Qingru couldn't figure out why Concubine Zhen would help Yueling, but seeing Yueling's happy face, she couldn't bear to hit her, and besides, Concubine Zhen really helped his father get rid of the crime, she said flatly: " If that's the case, then I really need to thank Concubine Zhen, Sister Ling, have you prepared anything to thank her?"

Yue Ling said embarrassingly: "I have thought about this too, but Concubine Zhen said that she has everything over there, so I don't have to worry about it, as long as I go to chat with her more in the future, and this month is her birthday, She said that she would ask me to help with something, and told me to go!"

"What's the matter?" Concubine Zhen will have something to ask a little Chang Zai to help?

Yue Ling shook her head and said: "I don't know, Concubine Zhen hasn't said anything yet, sister, do you want to know, then I will tell you as soon as I have news!"

Qingru nodded and stopped talking. It's hard to say what Concubine Zhen's idea is, so I'd better take a look first, and then Yueling talked about other things, including Tang Changzai and Chen Changzai's pregnancy successively As for the matter of being promoted to nobles, both of them will be in August, and Chen's womb is still a twin, and by then the palace will have three more children.

After Yueling finished speaking, she realized that Qingru's complexion was not very good-looking, and suddenly remembered that she had lost a child. Didn't his words just hit her sore spot, and quickly explained: "Sister, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it. I'm just... just..." The more anxious you are, the more you don't know what to say.

Qingru smiled lightly and said: "It's okay, I didn't have a relationship with that child, and I was too careless to be fooled by Rixi at the time. You don't have to worry about it, let alone I still have Xuan Ye?" She patted and sat down. Xuan Ye on her own lap, even though she said so, there is still a trace of loneliness in her eyes. There is no woman who does not want to have a child of her own, but in this palace, children have become a luxury. Having a child will not have much status, but the concubine, alas... Having a child means that there is a possibility of competing for the throne, and the possibility of aspiring to be the empress dowager. How can others be indifferent and let her live safely? Down.

Qingru didn't want to dwell on this heart-wrenching issue any longer, she changed the subject and lowered her head to Xuanye and said, "Will you accompany Auntie to see the Queen Mother later?"

Hearing her words, Xuan Ye slipped off her lap, stood firm and said: "Okay, Xuan Ye hasn't seen the imperial grandmother for quite a while!"

Yue Ling also likes Xuan Ye very much, seeing him slipping from Qing Ru's lap and pulling him to her side, patting his slightly wrinkled robe for him, and then said a little worriedly: "Sister, don't wait for the Queen Mother to call me Are you going?"

Qing Ru stood up with her handkerchief in her handkerchief, looked outside and said: "After I return to the palace, I should go to see the Empress Dowager. It would be impolite to go after waiting for the summons. I think the Empress Dowager thinks the same way!" After saying this She said to Yueling again: "It shouldn't be too long to go to the Queen Mother to ask for peace. If my sister is fine, come and have dinner with me in the evening. Our sisters haven't talked properly for a long time. Today I have to owe the previous one." Don't finish it!"

Yue Ling was about to say yes when he hesitated again: "Sister, if you come back today, the emperor might call you to bed, so I'd better not come!"

It turned out that this was what she was worried about, but Qingru knew in her heart that Fulin was angry with her, and she might not even come to see her these few days, let alone call her to bed.

She told Yue Ling to feel at ease at night, and she would definitely not have what he thought. Yue Ling didn't understand why he was so sure, but she still agreed. Qingru was not there, she was left alone in the palace, and there was no one to talk to. Although she met Concubine Zhen later, it was different from Qingru's feeling after all. She could talk to Qingru about anything, but she didn't Maybe I can talk to Concubine Zhen about anything!
Of the four people who used to be, now only she and Qingru are left. When she knew Rixi’s true face, she couldn’t believe it. Rixi, who kept calling them good sisters, never regarded them as sisters. She plotted against them all the time, even Shui Yin was forced to commit suicide by her.

In addition, Yueling also thought of another thing, that is, the person who caused her to sprain her foot during the Queen's Qianqiu Festival, that person must have been sent by Rixi, because these are the only people who knew she would perform dances at that time , who else would there be besides her? It's really unpredictable!

Yueling left the gate of Yanxi Palace after a burst of emotion, and only came back at night, while Qingru immediately removed her clothes and cleaned herself after sending Yueling out, and when her whole body was immersed in the warm and slightly hot water, her whole body finally felt Relax, close your eyes and think about nothing, let Zi Jin wipe himself.

I don't know how long it took, when she was drowsy, there was a faint crying sound in her ears, she opened her eyes and looked in the direction of the crying sound, it turned out to be Zijin, and she saw the ugly scarf on her back. After the scars on her face, she couldn't help crying, Qingru stretched out her hand to wipe the tears on Zijin's face and said with a smile: "Silly girl, why are you crying, isn't it already healed?"

Zijin looked at Qingru with tears in her eyes: "Miss, I was really scared when I heard the emperor said that you were injured and missing. I was afraid that I would never see you in the future. You must have suffered such a serious injury. right?"

"Whether it hurts or not, it's over. You see, I'm not in good shape now. Well, don't talk about it anymore, just wait for me to get up and get dressed!" Qingru said calmly, and Zijin responded quickly when she heard it. After drying her body, she took out her clothes and changed them for her.

The red flag dress was embroidered with tiny deep purple rose flowers on the collar and cuffs, which complemented the gold jade bracelet on the wrist. After changing the clothes and putting on the ankle socks, he stepped on the flower pot sole shoes and stood up. I don't know if it was because she didn't wear it for a long time, but she was a little unsteady, but fortunately she got used to it very quickly, sitting in front of the bronze mirror and brushing her hair softly.

Seeing the hair hanging behind her being combed slowly and then fixed on the top of her head, she seemed to be slowly changing in the mirror, from a girl to a woman, and suddenly she fell into a paradoxical feeling, as if in the mirror It's not her own self, but another woman.

After fixing the bun, Mianyi began to take out hairpins from the jewelry box, and put them on as hair accessories. On the right side, there was a row of fine tassels under a blue gem dragonfly hairpin. Short, There are small pearls hanging down, and on the left side is a gilt ring silk black jade bud, which is the one she wore when she was registered as a noble concubine. It is so graceful and luxurious, calm and elegant, just like a harem concubine She looked as it should, and she had put the pair of purple jade hairpins at the bottom of the jewelry box!

After dressing up, Qingru called Xuanye, and took Xiangyuan and Zijin to the Palace of Compassion. She didn't go there many times, especially after she was favored by the emperor, she went even less It's not that she doesn't go, but the queen mother rarely lets her in. In the eyes of many concubines in the harem, the queen mother is an untouchable existence.

Wandering around, holding Xuan Ye's hand all the way, saying a few words from time to time, and not long after, they came to the Palace of Compassion and Ning, and walked in after the announcement. Unexpectedly, Concubine Jing was there, Talking to the queen mother, she stopped when she saw Qingru coming in.

Qingru rarely sees Concubine Jing, and even if she does, she doesn't speak much. Concubine Jing looks at her and even every concubine with more or less hostility in her eyes.

But he didn't want to come to the Empress Dowager and meet her face to face. She didn't know why she came, Qingru guessed in her heart, but respectfully saluted on the face: "I have seen the Empress Dowager, I have seen Concubine Jing!" Xuan Ye also followed her to salute the Queen Mother.

Concubine Jing looked at Qingru's eyes full of disdain and hatred, raised her head and snorted coldly, and ignored her. The Queen Mother gave Jing Concubine a slightly displeased look, then smiled and asked Qingru to get up to speak, and then waved for Xuan to speak. Ye went to her side, maybe Xuan Ye really liked the Queen Mother, at least I haven't seen the Queen Mother treat others so well.

The Empress Dowager smiled at Qing Ru: "Concubine Wangui, your disappearance has made everyone in the palace anxious, including the old bone of Aijia. I just heard that the emperor found you. I still don't believe it. So many people outside have been looking for it for so long but haven't seen it, how did the emperor find it as soon as he went?"

Qing Ruqian smiled and said: "It's all the concubine's fault, it made the Queen Mother worry!"

Concubine Jing looked at Qingru unhappily, she seemed to be muttering something, it was too light to hear clearly, but it would not be a good word, the Queen Mother looked a little helpless, she let Su Moer lead the Xuan Ye went down to eat some snacks, and then said to Qingru: "Don't worry about it, just come back. I heard that you lost your memory when you were outside. What happened? Aijia was very curious. Come and listen!"
