Sheng Chong Concubine

Chapter 778 The dispute between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, summoned by the emperor (2)
"it is good."

He smiled, but he was thinking about what she said just now.In the end, Bai Yun helped Zheng Xinyi regain some face, because he didn't want Zheng Xinyi to retaliate against her because of jealousy.He knew Zheng Xinyi's thoughts on him, and showing her protection in public was more important to Zheng Xinyi than giving her any honor.It's just a woman's heart needle, Bai Yun's painstaking efforts, I'm afraid it will be in vain.

After lunch, Qiu Mingyue gave Feng Qingli another needle. Feeling a little tired, she wanted to lie down on the soft couch for a while.Feng Qingli pulled her and moved her body into the bed.

"Come up."

Qiu Mingyue frowned, "You are injured now, what if I bump into you? Forget it, I'll sleep on a soft couch."

As she spoke, she was about to get up, but with a lift of her wrist, Feng Qingli dragged her onto the bed, and then directly pulled her into her arms.

"Hey, you—" Caught off guard and fell into his arms, Qiu Mingyue was startled, fearing that she would crush him, she quickly wanted to raise her head, but he held her head down.

"Stop talking, I'm tired."

Qiu Mingyue quickly shut her mouth, and looked at him worriedly.

"Are you really okay?"

"Ah."

Feng Qingli closed her eyes, "Go to sleep for a while, tomorrow morning at the latest, the imperial grandmother will send you and sister-in-law into the palace to inquire about the reason for today's incident. I was injured and can't accompany you."

He frowned, seeming a little depressed.

"It's alright, don't worry."

Qiu Mingyue smiled, thinking of what Concubine Cairong said just now, she felt a little bored again.Judging from Concubine Rong's tone, it seemed that she wanted Feng Qingli to divorce her.Damn, she really couldn't help but want to swear.That old lady, did she become perverted after being tortured all day long in the palace, so she can't get used to others?She was surprised, she didn't offend her, but just because she took the position of the eldest concubine of Lao Shizi, she had to look down on her every day?If it wasn't for Feng Qingli and Prince Rong's sake, she would have long ago—

Forget it, even though she thought so in her heart, Qiu Mingyue still kept her sense.After all, Concubine Rong is also her elder. Since Feng Qingli respects her so much, there must be a reason for him.It's just that in the days to come, I'm afraid I won't be able to live in peace again.

She looked up, only to see that Feng Qingli had closed her eyes, breathing evenly and gently.Sunlight poured in from the window, and the room was quiet and serene.The corner of her mouth curled up, and she was just about to fall asleep when she suddenly heard footsteps lingering outside, as if there was something urgent.

"Concubine Shizi, I have something to ask for help."

It's Grandma Sun.

Qiu Mingyue frowned, looked at Feng Qingli who was sleeping soundly, and tried to pull away his hand around her waist, but she didn't know that the man would not let her go even if he fell asleep, instead of letting go, he hugged her even harder. hold her tight.

She had no choice but to whisper in his ear: "I'll go out for a while, and I'll be right back."

Feng Qingli frowned in her sleep, as if she was weighing the authenticity of her words, then reluctantly let go of her, turned her back to her, and muttered.

"Come back soon."

Qiu Mingyue was getting out of bed softly, the corners of her mouth twitched, she wondered if he was really asleep.

"understood."

She casually pulled a thin cloak from the hanger and put it on her body, then walked out.Grandma Sun was pacing back and forth anxiously outside, and when she saw her coming out, she hurried up to meet her.

"Elder Concubine..."

"What made Mammy so alarmed?"

Qiu Mingyue sat down and drank tea leisurely.

"Don't you know Shizi is sleeping? Don't disturb him."

Grandma Sun was taken aback. In the past, when the concubine was still a young lady who had not left the court, she was cold and distant. After marrying the son, she became more gentle every day.This kind of change may not be noticed by others, but she, the old man who is with the concubine Shizi, can still feel it.The princess concubine to the prince...

She concealed the emotion in her eyes, and said: "Concubine Shizi, I heard that Dong Xue and Xia Tong have already..."

With a twinkle in Qiu Mingyue's eyes, she covered the tea with a lid and casually put it aside.

"Well, they're dead."

Grandma Sun was taken aback again, as if she was not used to her current calmness.

"Concubine Shizi, they... have been by your side since childhood, you..."

Qiu Mingyue smiled suddenly, "What do you want to say? They have been with me since childhood, so even if my life is in danger, I shouldn't use them as a mat for my life, right?"

Nanny Sun gasped, almost breaking out in a cold sweat from her casual but extremely oppressive questioning.

"Your servant doesn't mean that." She lowered her head in fear, and said: "It's just... I heard that the two of them died to save the young mistress. I don't understand why the concubine..."

"Grandma Sun."

Qiu Mingyue interrupted her lightly, she seldom used such a title, and Nanny Sun's heart tightened.She knew that the imperial concubine was already angry.The last time she called herself that was last year.At that time, it was also for Dongxue...

"You have to know that now I am not only the fifth girl of the Qiu family, but also Miss Sun of the Shen family. I am also the eldest concubine of the Prince Rong's mansion. Marrying a husband follows the husband. Since they followed me to the Prince Rong's mansion, naturally they will not Not just my personal servant girl, but a member of Prince Rong's residence. My sister-in-law is in trouble today, and she almost lost her life. As maidservants, it is only natural for them to desperately save the life of the master. In other words, if one day I There is danger, if you were the only one beside me at that time, what would you do? Would you leave me and escape alone, or would you save me with your life?"

"Of course it's for Miss."

Nanny Sun was startled and chilled by the first half of Qiu Mingyue's words. Although the former lady was a little cold, she was good to the maids who served her closely.She never imagined that one day Miss would be so indifferent and cold-blooded to the people around her.However, when Qiu Mingyue asked the next question, she answered without hesitation, and even changed her address.

"Miss, I know I can't call you like that anymore. But no matter who you are today, it doesn't matter if you are the Fifth Miss of the Qiu Mansion or the First Concubine of the Prince Rong's Mansion. In the heart of this old slave, you are still the young lady of the Shen Mansion in Yangzhou. The old slave's master. No matter what happens in the future, even if the old slave's life is sacrificed, the old slave will definitely protect the young lady." Her tone was sincere and decisive, without any perfunctory or lying elements.Even his eyes are firm and reckless.

Qiu Mingyue paused, then slowly raised her head to look at her, finally a trace of complexity appeared in her eyes.

"Mammy, do you think I'm too heartless?"

Grandma Sun shook her head, sighing with pity in her eyes.

"Miss, you have only entered the palace not long ago, and there are not many trustworthy people around you. Dong Xue and Xia Tong have followed you since childhood. No matter what, loyalty is reliable. Now..." She sighed, "That's all, It has become a fact, so there is no point in talking too much. The old slave was rude just now, and I hope the concubine will forgive me."
