Concubine Mi in the Qing Dynasty

Chapter 173

In the Qixiang Palace, Wang Miheng was teasing the little bun on the bed while talking to Qiumei, but he heard footsteps, and the eunuch Xiaoluzi came in from outside.

"I want to report to your empress, Ning Guiren is asking to see you."

Listening to Xiao Luzi's words, a look of surprise flashed in Wang Miheng's eyes.Ning Guiren?How did she come here?
Naturally, Wang Miheng would not think that Guiren Ning came here because she had a deep affection for her sisters, and now there are rumors in the palace, saying that Guiren Ning fell out of favor because she blew some pillow wind in front of Kangxi.

In this way, if Mrs. Ning Gui didn't hate her, it would be strange, why would she come over to pay her respects.

Wang Miheng glanced at Qiumei, and then told Xiao Luzi: "Just say that I am not feeling well, I just lay down, let her go back to her own palace."

As soon as Wang Miheng's words fell, Qiumei said softly: "It can't be like this, this word has to be spread, and the people in this palace are still not sure how to arrange the master. According to the servants, the master still sees each other first, left and right But it will take a while."

Listening to Qiumei's words, Wang Miheng thought for a while before ordering: "Then let her in."

Having said that, Wang Miheng was full of reluctance in her heart, she didn't like to deal with concubines in the harem, especially Ning Guiren, who hated her to death in her heart, but still respected and flattered her on the surface.

It's really boring to be hypocritical.

Xiaoluzi got the order, so he stood up, turned around and walked out of the hall.

"Take Elder Sixteen down." Wang Miheng pinched Xiao Baozi's white and tender face, and then ordered.

"Yes." Hearing Wang Miheng's words, the nanny hurried forward, carefully picked up Elder Sixteen, blessed her body, and then backed out.

Wang Miheng curled his lips and said half-jokingly: "In this harem, there is never a day of comfort."

Qiumei couldn't help laughing after hearing this: "Master, you are just lazy. Look at any palace nowadays that people visit every now and then. In our Qixiang Palace, there is not even a bird. If you don't know, you may think it is something." What about the desolate land?"

Wang Miheng glanced at her, and said casually: "What do you mean there is no bird, and I will ask the people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs to send some birds over some other day, and I will make you lively."

"Don't, the emperor likes to be quiet, if you really mess with those living things, the servants will be punished."

While talking, Qiumei helped Wang Miheng out of the room and sat on the soft couch.

After sitting down, Ning Gui walked in slowly.

This is the first time Wang Miheng saw her after Lady Ning fell out of favor. She was wearing a light blue flag dress, and her already thin face became even thinner. A kind of fragile beauty.

"My concubine pays her respects to Concubine Mi." Ning Guiren stepped forward slowly and bowed gracefully.

Ever since Lady Ning came in, Wang Miheng's eyes fell on her.These days, she has also heard some rumors about Mrs. Ning Gui here and there, looking at her now, she doesn't look a bit like her.

After Wang Miheng understood, he didn't know whether to be angry or happy.

Annoyed that Mr. Ning "imitated" herself to fight for favor, she was glad that her every move was lucky enough to be imitated.

It seems that Mr. Ning Gui has worked hard.Otherwise, it wouldn't be so resembling, even her demeanor has a bit of her flavor.

Seeing that Ning Guiren was still squatting, Wang Miheng hurriedly said: "Get up."

Ning Gui thanked him, then got up, then stood there respectfully with his head down, silent, but there was a bit of grievance and loneliness between his brows.

Seeing her like this, Wang Miheng slandered inwardly, it was clearly Mrs. Ning Gui who came to beg to see her, but seeing her now, she turned into a wooden person.

Wang Miheng didn't really like this kind of scheming and delicate woman in the first place, but now he is a little bit dumbfounded.

Could it be that she thought that if she didn't speak and put on a wronged look, she would feel unbearable.

While slandering, Wang Miheng picked up the teacup on the table and fiddled with it again and again.

Anyway, she has enough time, let's just spend it with her for the time being.

Thinking of this in his heart, Wang Miheng closed his eyes and stopped the movement of his hands.

Seeing her like this, Qiumei smiled a little, and looked at Ning Guiren with even more displeasure.

It was clear that Mrs. Ning Gui begged to see the master herself, but she didn't speak now, and she looked aggrieved as if the master had bullied her.

I don't know, I thought how much wronged she had suffered in this palace.

Ning Guiren originally thought that she would not open her mouth, but just stood down with an aggrieved and cautious face, Concubine Mi must have felt somewhat unbearable and guilty.

But she didn't expect that Concubine Mi, whom she thought to be very temperamental in the past, really left her aside and closed her eyes to rest.

For a moment, Guiren Ning felt a little annoyed that Concubine Mi gave her such an embarrassment under the eyes of everyone.

Thinking back, when she first came to visit her, Concubine Mi was not like this.

As soon as this thought passed through Ning Guiren's mind, it became clear in his heart.

That's right, at that time she was only the lord of the first palace, but now she is the hottest Concubine Mi.It is really a great favor for a Han woman to sit on the imperial concubine position.What's more, the emperor still accompanies her every day, and it's not an exaggeration to say that he is the only favorite.

Thinking of this, Ning Guiren put on a pitiful look, stepped forward and knelt on the ground and begged: "My concubine, I beg your mother to take pity on my concubine, and say a good word in front of the emperor for my concubine. I will never forget this concubine in this life." The empress is so kind and virtuous, she is willing to serve her at her mercy."

Wang Miheng was slightly surprised, looked at her with some displeasure, and said: "What do you mean by your words? Although this palace doesn't move around much, it's not that I don't know anything about the things in the palace. Could it be that your honor thinks that it is This palace interfered with this, which made the nobleman lose his favor."

Even though Ning Gui was mentally prepared, he did not expect to hear these words.

For a moment, Ning Guiren's face changed drastically, and he said hastily: "I don't dare, how dare I be so suspicious of my mother." After saying this, Ning Guiren's words were really a bit uneasy and apprehensive.

Wang Miheng smiled, and said indifferently: "Okay, I just said something casually, but I didn't mean to blame the nobleman. There are many gossips in this palace. If you take it to heart, I will Don't have to live."

Listening to Wang Miheng's words, Ning Guiren's thoughts turned in a circle again.

This Concubine Mi is really kind-hearted, she wiped the matter clean with a simple sentence.It was clear that seeing her humble status and losing the favor of the emperor, she dared to treat her like this.

Thinking of this, Ning Guiren couldn't help but feel hatred welling up in her heart. Although she tried her best to suppress it, the handkerchief tightly held in her hands betrayed her after all.

Wang Miheng took this little action into his eyes, and naturally he didn't have the heart to deal with her anymore.

At that moment, he only opened his mouth and said: "If the nobleman has nothing to do, you can go back first. After all these words, I am a little tired."

Who said that she must accompany her when she is acting?

When he said this, Wang Miheng stood up and was about to walk towards the inner room.

Guiren Ning knelt on the ground, listening to Wang Miheng's words, he didn't know where the courage came from, and suddenly rushed forward and grabbed Wang Miheng's skirt.

"My lady, please take pity on my concubine."

Wang Miheng took a step back reflexively, but Ning Guiren grabbed his hand.

At this time, Ning Gui popped out the medicine powder hidden in her nails without a trace. She had thought about this action countless times in her heart, but when she really did it, her whole heart was in her throat. Miheng found out that he was afraid that it might get on his own hands by accident.

She heard Concubine Tong Gui said that the medicinal powder only needs a little bit on the skin to work.

It was too late and then soon, Qiumei came back to her senses, hurriedly stood in front of Wang Miheng, and scolded in a cold voice: "What are you doing, you offended my mother, can you afford it?"

Ning Guiren's face paled after hearing this. After all, she is the emperor's woman and the master of the palace. She was reprimanded by a servant girl, so it was natural for her to lose face.

It's just that I did those things just now, and I was guilty in the end. At that moment, I just knelt on the ground and begged for mercy: "My lord, forgive me, the concubine was just in a hurry and lost her sense of proportion. Please don't blame me, my lord."

Wang Miheng stood there, watching Ning Guiren begging for mercy on his knees, and felt that it was pointless to pursue it further.

He just said: "This palace is a little tired, so I won't keep the nobleman."

Hearing Wang Miheng's words, Ning Guiren did not get up immediately, but raised his head and looked at Wang Miheng carefully, he hesitated to speak, as if he was a little unwilling because Wang Miheng didn't answer her.

After a long time, he said in a low voice: "Yes, that concubine will leave first." After speaking, she stood up, blessed her body, turned and retreated.

The curtain rang softly, Ning Guiren walked out of the hall slowly, at the same pace as when he came.

As everyone knows, at this time, everything in her heart is full of panic and fear.

Recalling the scene just now, she was sure that the medicinal powder was sprinkled on Concubine Mi's hands, but the medicinal powder was colorless, odorless, and extremely delicate, so it would not be apparent without careful observation.

As long as she accidentally wipes it on her face, that pretty face will be ruined.

Even if she didn't, her hands stained with the powder would also fester.Either way, she is doomed to fall out of favor.

Since ancient times, none of the concubines are Israelis, and the emperor would not be interested in a woman who has lost her appearance.

Seeing Mr. Ning Gui going out, Wang Miheng said angrily: "Just annoying such a person, I really don't want to deal with it for a moment."

Qiumei heard this, but worried: "Master, do you think there is something wrong?" Just now, why did Ning Gui suddenly pounce on me, I don't know if she has the intention of harming others.

Hearing Qiumei's words, Wang Miheng shook his head, but there was nothing unusual about him.

"Perhaps it's because the slaves are overwhelmed. It seems that Ning Gui is desperate, so he wants to beg the master."

Wang Miheng was silent for a moment, and then said: "That's right, it's hard to live out of favor."

It's just that whether it's good or bad has nothing to do with her, it's good that she can live her life well.
