Chen Palace

Chapter 109 Meng Hua
"What grievance do you have, get up and talk!"

Chen Lu gestured slightly, and Jian Qing who was at the side gently lifted her up, and comforted her: "Madam Baolin has any grievances, you might as well tell my master in detail, she is the one to make the decision!"

Yang Baolin was sobbing, and only then did he tell the whole story.

It turned out that she lived in the south side hall of Yunqing Palace, and had always been on good terms with Concubine Qi, and was a confidant in her party. She had a lively and cheerful personality, and was also popular in the palace.

Unexpectedly, Concubine Qi died suddenly, the trees fell and the monkeys scattered, and those who were attached to Concubine Qi suddenly lost their protection and could only sigh for their own fate.

There are misfortunes and blessings in the sky, that's all, but the house leaked and it rained all night, Yunluo relied on the queen's favor, and actually bullied her!

When Yang Baolin said this, he sighed sadly: "It's also my fault that I was impatient at the time. Back then when she was a maidservant, Concubine Qi wanted to send her to the clothes washing bureau. I sneered and said: "This kind of foxy bully , should be kicked out..."

Chen Lu was also a member of Yunqing Palace at the beginning, she was clear-eyed when she heard it, and said: "You stabbed her at that time, no wonder she has a grudge."

Yang Baolin wept again: "If she wants revenge, she can just come to me, but with the backing of the Empress, she actually came to Yunqing Palace to show off her might, saying that she would let the whole palace know how powerful she is... ..."

She glanced at Chen Lu secretly, and said with a sob: "She also said that the empress will give her the Yunqing Palace, and she will not allow such lowly reckless people to come and occupy the magpie's nest."

Chen Lu sneered inwardly, without any anger on her face, she just said indifferently: "It's been like this since ancient times when a villain gains power, so you don't have to take it too seriously."

Yang Baolin supported the young couple, knelt down tremblingly and said: "There is no one in charge of our Yunqing Palace now, so we have to let the bullying, the concubines are daring, please move in as soon as possible, so we can have the backbone!"

Chen Lu pondered for a while, and said with a smile: "This is all the emperor's decision, how can we interfere? However, the people from Yungui are making too much noise, so I must mention something to her."

"It's up to the mother to decide."

After seeing off Yang Baolin, it was already evening, and the magpies returning to their nests whispered softly outside the window. The green willows fluttered in the evening wind, driving away the heat, leaving only a faint fragrance of flowers.

Chenlu picked off a wicker, played with it in Xianxian's hands, and wove it.

"Look at Yang Baolin's words, how true are they?"

She asked Jian Qing.

"Yang Baolin is not a fool. She should know the consequences of telling stories... Therefore, the people of Yungui must have slandered you in that way, so she can justifiably sue you."

Chen Lu caressed the green willow leaves, An Xiang smiled and said: "The reason why Yunluo is confident is because she has the queen behind her, and the queen just treats her as a pawn for temptation - if it is broken, she can be replaced at any time." Pass."

There was no ridicule in her eyes, just pity and helplessness.

"If I want to establish my prestige in the palace, I can use her to make an example to others."

The golden sunset shone on the vanity mirror, with scattered and fine spots of light, making her face look like a dream.

When Yuan Qi arrived in Debiyue Palace, it was already the tip of willows on the moon, and palace lanterns were dancing with the wind under the corridor, and the exquisite and elegant floating paintings were vividly illuminated by the flames.

He entered the dormitory, only to find that the beautiful woman was weaving wicker with great interest.

The withered willow leaves can only be described by the word "ravaged". The shape seems to be round but not round, making people really unable to guess what it is.

"What are you doing?"

Yuan Qi crept to the front, and then suddenly made a sound.

"I want to weave a willow crown that I played with when I was a child, but I can't..."

Chen Lu's voice was full of annoyance, and she frowned slightly, still struggling with the withered willow branches.

Yuan Qi couldn't hold his palm any longer, he burst out laughing, he couldn't help but take the willow branch, and with two or three strokes, a round and graceful willow crown appeared in front of his eyes.

When Chen Lu took a closer look, she couldn't help laughing, like a room full of flowers blooming together, refreshing and beautiful, making people dazzled and intoxicated.

Yuan Qi stared blankly under the lamp, only to feel that his heart was full of joy. After a long time, he was startled and asked: "What are you laughing at?"

Chen Lu smiled but said nothing, and pointed to the place where the willow crown was knotted. Yuan Qi took a closer look and burst out laughing——

Another bow tie!

"The emperor's craftsmanship is indeed better than that of ordinary court ladies!"

Chen Lu chuckled, teasing with his own words, Yuan Qi laughed and was annoyed, and finally couldn't help it, and laughed at himself too.

The two sat together under the lamp, the cool night breeze blowing in from the window, bringing a rich and sweet fragrance of flowers, chatting and laughing, there is a kind of hazy warmth, like drizzle moistening things, slowly giving birth to...

After a long time, when the emperor thought of this scene, he still couldn't help himself, felt a sudden sense of loss, and felt that life was prosperous like a dream, but the most difficult thing to get back was the old days.

Under the same night sky, in the Compassionate Ning Palace, it was cold and silent.

The Empress Dowager stared at the window in a dazed manner. Under the silvery white moonlight, the heavily dyed skirt stretched and fluttered like a cloud of smoke, changing from blurred to gradually clear.

"You... are here again!"

The Queen Mother trembled slightly, almost angrily, and let out a low voice.

The woman in palace attire floated closer in the mist, and that sneering face gradually turned——

"This time it's you?!"

The Empress Dowager stared, her face was completely different from last time, her whole body was shrouded in cold air, her teeth trembled slightly.

The woman drifted closer and closer, and her pale face gradually turned into a trace of strange misery——

"Cousin..."

In a trance, the woman mournfully whispered,
"You come to pester me too!!"

The Queen Mother gritted her teeth and said, "Am I still afraid of you?!"

That miserable face seemed to be irritated, and under the distorted hatred, it turned into a ferocious face, and flew up——

The empress dowager was devastated, she woke up with a loud cry, but it was Nan Keyimeng.

Panting slightly, she took the tea served by the maid, only to feel her whole body trembling slightly, it was actually cold all over her body on a hot day.

The sound of the third watch was heard, and the queen mother shivered, and got up in her clothes, not daring to sleep again.

Outside the corridor, a court lady is carefully leaning under the window, peeking at everything in the palace.

Seeing this scene, she smiled with satisfaction, and was about to get up to send a message to Biyue Palace, but at the end of the palace lantern, a figure flashed and disappeared into the darkness.

who is it? !
She was in doubt, and after a while, she turned around and left.
