Harem: Biography of Concubine Qin

Chapter 81 Rumors
After New Year's Day, the atmosphere of the palace remains unchanged.The New Year is not truly over until the Lantern Festival of the Fifteenth Yuan Dynasty has passed.

After the new year's day, it is more leisurely than in the twelfth lunar month, and there is no need to stick to the etiquette of the new year's festival.The concubines invited each other in twos and twos, and when the lanterns first came on at night, they went out to enjoy the lanterns.

Chen Wenxin also made appointments with Zhang Changzai several times, Concubine Hui and Concubine De also walked around there, and the rest of the people had nothing to do with each other.

As early as the twelfth lunar month, everyone in the palace saw a kind of beauty lamp on the inner lantern, which was painted as Chen Wenxin.

The emperor didn't say anything, and there was no movement in Yikun Palace.

The concubines in the various palaces even pretended not to see it, and only quietly ordered the palace people to hang this kind of beauty lamp in the corner.

I thought this matter would be ignored, but I didn't expect it to be brought up after New Year's Day.

At some point, there was a saying in the harem.

It was said that Nan Huairen had a deep admiration for the emperor's concubine Qin, and made this beauty lamp to show his love, and deliberately asked the Household Department to hang it in the harem, so that concubine Qin could know his intentions...

The little table learned this from outside to Chen Wenxin, and she rolled her eyes angrily.

"Master even rolls his eyes, it's all over the country."

The little table was afraid that she would be angry, so he quickly flattered her.

Chen Wenxin gave him a blank look.

This beauty is a crime, and the beauty painted on the lamp may not be exactly the same as her.Even if it is really painting her, everyone has a love for beauty, how could it be that Nan Huairen has a crush on her?
According to the social theory of her previous life, it doesn't matter to her who has a crush on her, as long as she doesn't respond.

But this theory did not work in the feudal Qing Dynasty.

As the emperor's concubine, she is a married woman, and it is her crime to be secretly loved by others!
When others heard it, they would think that it was her, Chen Wenxin, who seduced Nan Huairen, otherwise, how could Nan Huairen have a crush on her for no reason!

If this word reaches the emperor's ears, how much trouble will it cause?

"Do you know where this word came from?"

"The slave checked it out. It was Ping'er from Yongshou Palace who told the eunuch and maid below."

The small table had been checked long ago, and he couldn't let go of such words that slandered his master.

Ping'er is the eldest maid of Yongshou Palace, Yipin's confidant girl.

"Is there any evidence?"

Naturally, there must be conclusive evidence to make an attack, and Yipin will never be given a chance to defend herself.

"Yes. Xiao Dezi, who is in charge of renovating the flowers and trees in Yongshou Palace, has fawned on the servant. This time, he told the servant. He can testify that..."

The little table didn't say a word in the second half. Once Xiao Dezi got this certificate, he would definitely not be able to stay in Yongshou Palace any longer.In return, Yikun Palace will arrange a better home for him.

Chen Wenxin knows the rules, and this is what it should be.Xiao Dezi's heart is biased toward Yikun Palace, so it's not easy to ask him to testify for him, and he will be abused by Concubine Yi in Yongshou Palace in the future.

She said: "You tell that little Dezi, after this matter is over, I will let him work as an errand in Yikun Palace."

That way, nothing is lost.

The little table said happily: "The slave will tell him now, and he will definitely agree."

Chen Wenxin rubbed her temples, this is her usual action before doing something she doesn't want to do but has to do.

"I will draw up a hand letter and stamp it with a golden seal. You send it to Chengqian Palace and Changchun Palace, and ask the imperial concubine and Huifei to have a look. If the two empresses seal it, you can go directly to Yongshou Palace and take away those who chew your tongue. The palace servants sent it to the Punishment Department."

She thought for a while, and then said: "If the two empresses don't agree, you can come back and report to me."

Concubine Tong Gui and Concubine Hui should not refuse.

The evidence is conclusive, it was only the interrogation of the palace servants, not Yipin's body.

They have no reason not to allow it?
I heard that the Department of Punishment is a very scary place. The last time Yibi used Songzi Guanyin to frame her, Bai Lu was almost sent there.

Now the palace servants of Yongshou Palace are also going in, including Yipin's confidant Ping'er.

She couldn't bear it, and after the little table left, she asked Bai Lu again: "Am I being too cruel?"

Bai Lu understood her thoughts very well.

She was holding the phoenix seal in her hand at the beginning, and she only used it once when Concubine Tong came to Yikun Palace with concubine Yi to bully her.

Not to mention the power of assisting the harem.

She never used power or the emperor's favor to bully anyone.

"How could it be? If the master doesn't punish those people with evil intentions now, if they really succeed in the future and cause a big trouble, then the slaves and the little table will enter the Punishment Division."

Bai Lu not only comforted her, but also told the truth.

The harem has never been a kind place. Where there are women, there will be scheming and fighting. An overly kind person like Chen Wenxin is not suitable for living in the harem.

If it wasn't for the emperor's favor, she would have long since been treated by Concubine Tong Guifei.

She was really worried, once the emperor stopped pampering her one day, how would she live her life...

"How about that, as long as you don't do bad things, I won't let you enter the Punishment Department."

Chen Wenxin patted her chest and assured that, in her opinion, Bai Lu and the others were her people.She couldn't even cover her own palace servants, so it was too miserable.

Bai Lu smiled and said, "In this palace, only the master orders the slaves to do bad things. What kind of disturbance can the slaves create by themselves?"

This is reasonable, just like Ping'er next to Yipin, she definitely has no enmity with Chen Wenxin.If Yipin didn't instruct her to do this, she would have no reason to spread rumors about Chen Wenxin.

"Then you can rest assured that I will not instruct you to do bad things."

On this point, Chen Wenxin is very confident.

The small table was very efficient. In less than half a day, he came back to report, "There are nine eunuchs and maids in the Yongshou Palace who are causing trouble, and among them, the big palace lady Ping'er is the leader. They have all been sent to the Punishment Division."

"What did the imperial concubine and concubine Hui say?"

"The servant brought Xiao Dezi from Yongshou Palace directly. The master's handwriting was clearly written, and there is no dispute about this matter. The two empresses didn't say much, and they directly sealed it and let the servant bring it back."

Chen Wenxin has the right to assist the harem, if she is more domineering, she can dispatch the Department of Punishment with the letter from the Yikun Palace.

She still asked the little table to inform Concubine Tong Gui and Concubine Hui, and asked them to give their consent before acting.One is for the face of the two of them, and the other is to make Yibi even more speechless.

Yipin was pregnant, and everyone said she was a fool for three years, just look at her running on Chen Wenxin at the New Year's Eve banquet.

In case if she is not convinced, start tormenting again.It was Chen Wenxin's fault to damage the dragon fetus.

She didn't want to bear this crime, nor did she want the emperor's heir to make any mistakes.

When the seventh princess died, the emperor's sadness was clearly seen in her eyes.

"Can Yipin resist?"

"Ms. Yi Concubine did not show up. After she asked the mother to come out and ask for clarification, she said that since it was the intention of Concubine Tong, then take those slaves away."

The handwritten order is clearly the regulation of Yikun Palace, and Concubine Yi only talks about noble concubines, so I'm afraid she has a guilty conscience.

"Master, why does Ping'er spread rumors to hurt you? It's clearly instigated by Concubine Yi. Do you want the slave to report to Qianqing Palace?"

Xiao Zhuo felt that it was too cheap to punish only the palace servants of Yongshou Palace.

"Concubine Tong is the person in charge of the harem. She must have sent someone to Qianqing Palace to inform her as soon as her phoenix seal was sealed. Why should we do such a long-winded thing? Yi concubine is pregnant with a dragon fetus, and I don't want the emperor to punish her. "

The little table looked helpless, and the master's benevolence and righteousness came again.

"What's that look on your face?"

Chen Wenxin gave the small table a hard look.

The small table immediately stood upright, watching his nose and nose, pretending that nothing had happened.

At the same time, in Qianqing Palace, the emperor was critiquing papers before the case, and heard Li Dequan report in this way.

"Chengqian Palace sent someone to report this matter, but the slaves have already been sent away. Look, Your Majesty, how will Concubine Yi deal with it?"

The emperor read the report, shook his head and sighed: "I thought she had finally learned how to show power, and if she was given the right to assist in the harem, she would treat it as a decoration and discard it."

Li Dequan echoed: "Didn't the concubine Qin use it this time? She just used it lightly and didn't put the crime on Concubine Yi. Who doesn't know that Concubine Yi ordered the palace servants to do this?"

"The report from Yikun Palace said that she was afraid that concubine Yi would be involved and my heir would be hurt..."

When the emperor said this, he sighed lightly, and his tone softened.

Li Dequan also sighed: "Ms. Qin is really a kind person..."

She is kind, but the emperor will not allow others to bully her kindness.

He accepted Chen Wenxin's kindness, and he could not punish Yibi for the time being.Waiting for the dragon fetus in Yipin's belly to be unloaded...

The emperor narrowed his eyes slightly, and thought of another person.

"I asked you to send someone to Horqin to investigate the jade promise, did you get any results?"
