Remnant King's Concubine

Chapter 109
"Sister is too fussy." Man Xin said, "Interrogating a prisoner requires any means, which is considered light!"

"You—" The education she has received these years is like this, Hui Xin can't say no to her, and feels sad, "Let the irrelevant people step down."

Man Xin immediately asked someone to drag the people on the rack away, leaving only herself, Hui Xin, and Liu Yuan here.

Liu Yuan looked at them suspiciously: "What's the matter with the two girls?"

"The Empress Dowager asked me to ask you something." Hui Xin said, telling him what Rui Xue said, and then asked, "You never mentioned the woman in black, is that the case?"

Liu Yuan said: "This... the servant is not very clear. But it is unlikely to be Ruixue. I have seen her a few times when I was in the palace. She is often with Chanjuan, and occasionally comes out to make trouble. She looks quite relaxed. It doesn't look like being imprisoned."

"Then who do you think it is?" Hui Xin asked.

"This... the slave really has no way of guessing. But Lushao must know that she seems to be in charge of the affairs of Lengxiangyuan! By the way, that woman seems to be called the third girl."

"Third Miss..." Hui Xin pondered for a moment, "When did she arrive at the palace?"

Liu Yuan thought for a while: "I don't know, I only found her after the prince came back from the expedition, probably after Chanjuan and Ruixue entered the mansion... Could it be really Ruixue?"

Hui thought for a while, and said, "I see." Then she turned and walked out.

Man Xin said: "Liu Yuan, you can interrogate the old man surnamed Huo again to see if he knows anything else. Lu Zhi wakes up and asks her about this!" After speaking, she ran out to catch up with Hui Xin.

After walking for a while, the surrounding cells were all empty and there was no one there, Hui Xin asked, "Did you hear what you just said?"

"I heard."

She stopped and turned around: "Do you still think I'm your sister?"

"Of course!" Man said impatiently, grabbing her hand, "I know you're disappointed in me, but isn't it all because of you..."

"Well, there is no need to study what Liu Yuan said just now, the fact is what Dongyue said!"

Ji Liangruo sat in a side hall of Lanyue Palace, facing a pile of papers and pens.

The queen mother asked her to write the art of war silently, and she couldn't leave this desk from morning to night, and the maid from Longfu Palace stood beside her to watch her.

Three days passed, she didn't write a single word, and asked Ruixue, "Is there any news about the prince?"

Rui Xue shook her head.

She sighed, and asked the palace maid who watched them: "Can you tell me about the rumors outside?" She and Ruixue could only move around in Lanyue Palace, and they didn't know what happened outside, and no one else would tell them.

The palace maid opened her mouth and said in embarrassment: "Concubine Liang, don't embarrass your servants! Quickly think about the art of war and write it down!"

At this time, a palace lady came in from outside, came over and said: "Your Majesty, the emperor sent people to reward many new clothes and put them in the bedroom. The emperor asked you to try them all, change the ones that don't suit you, and throw away the ones you don't like. Until the empress is satisfied."

She looked terrified, full of displeasure, but stood up helplessly.

Back in the bedroom, she tried on the clothes, and they all fit, but if she liked it, even if it was exactly the same as what she wore in the palace, she still wouldn't like it.

"Does your empress like it?" the eunuch asked, afraid that she would not like it.

Ruixue lowered her head to tie her a belt, and said coldly: "The tailors in this palace are not as good as those made by Yizhan Pavilion!"

"This..." The eunuch looked embarrassed, "Actually, many of the tailors in the palace worked in Yizhan Pavilion, and they were called into the palace because they did well."

Ji Liangruo looked at Ruixue, thinking that she would not mention Yizhan Pavilion for no reason.Yizhan Pavilion... I don't know if that is an exit?
"Forget it, I really don't like it, just save a set for a change!" She took off her coat and changed into the one she was wearing before, "I don't like the clothes, and it's uncomfortable to wear..."

"Your Majesty..." The eunuch fell on the ground and was about to cry, "My Majesty, what are you dissatisfied with? Tell the servant, the servant will change immediately, change immediately!"

"You don't need to bother, it's just the same if you change it!" Seeing some new jewelry on the table, she said to Rui Xue, "Give them the jewelry! I don't like it! Do you think I'm wearing it on my head? "

Qin Yunguang received many rewards, but she didn't wear them.What she was wearing before was the ones she wore when she left the palace. Qin Yunguang saw that and if she insisted on changing them, she simply stopped wearing them!Now I only use the original hairpin to tie up a bun, not even the earrings.

Turning around and leaving the dormitory, she and Ruixue went for a walk outside the door.Blindly walked along the corridor, walked back and forth four or five times, looked at the palace gate that was so close at hand, but couldn't get out.Walking here is not disturbed by anyone, but as soon as you walk outside, everyone rushes over.

When it's time for dinner, we have dinner, and there are all kinds of delicacies from mountains and seas.She already ate lightly, so she picked light food every time.When the maid saw it, she didn't make light ones for the next meal. She drank two bowls of soup, which frightened them so much that they couldn't do it, so she had to serve the light ones again.When Qin Yunguang found out, he asked her what was going on.

She said: "Probably life is cheap, too precious to swallow! Anyway, I only care about eating enough. If the emperor is afraid of wasting, he tells them to do less! If they can't finish eating, they will reward them, but they won't eat." , I can't help it either."

When she thought of Xun'er, she always liked to cook for her.

Xun'er was also arrested, right?If you say that you like the taste of Xun'er's cooking, I'm afraid it will save people... Sigh, but give up.She is too busy to take care of herself, what is she still doing as that good person?Each has his own destiny, Xun'er doesn't have much loyalty, if he knew something, he would have recruited it long ago!

The next day, before she went to sit in the side hall after breakfast, she heard voices coming all the way from outside: "The emperor has a reward——"

She stood up and reluctantly went to the front to receive the order.When he reached the door, he saw Zhan Rong leading people over.Her face brightened, and the eunuch who led the way in shouted: "The emperor has a reward—" and then began to "sing", probably saying that the emperor ordered Yizhan Pavilion to send clothes and jewelry for her to choose as she wished.

She knelt down to accept the order, and returned to the bedroom surrounded by everyone.

Zhan Rong waited on her slowly, trying on clothes and jewelry one by one, which took a lot of time.At the beginning, no one said a word, put on a suit, showed her face, asked her to look in the mirror, and asked, "How does your mother feel?"

"good……"

"It's just okay? Your Majesty is so polite, let's change another set!"

If Ji Liang didn't mean to be dissatisfied, but after hearing what she said, he would just say "it's okay" in the next move, intending to prolong the time.

Even after changing a few pieces, she pointed to two pieces and said she was satisfied.

Zhan Rong said: "I brought a lot today. If you feel tired, you can just watch and choose. If you think it's good, you can keep it! Otherwise, you can keep it all. You can wear it every morning when you get up. If you think it's good, you can wear it for a day. It's not good." Just don't."

She took a piece of clothing and thought about it, and Qin Yunguang kept rejecting it for fear of getting angry, so she nodded if she didn't want to let the Zhan family make money: "This is a really good idea! I hate trying it all the time, just keep what you brought today! At the end, he sighed, "Actually, I am here, and I have nowhere to go. Two sets of clothes are enough, and I really don't want to dress up. But this is the emperor's will, and I dare not disobey! I didn't choose yesterday, and I won't choose today. I'm afraid it will cause trouble... Companion to the king is like companion to the tiger, in short, nothing is right."

"I'm embarrassing my mother..." Zhan Rong responded indifferently, "Do you keep all the jewelry?"

She glanced at it: "Leave it!"

"I didn't bring makeup powder today, so I wonder if the empress would like it? If so, the daughter of the people will tell the emperor, and I will bring it next time!"

"Who will show the makeup?" Ji Liangruo said quietly.

"Show me!" Qin Yunguang's voice came from outside the door.

She was startled, and the clothes in her hands fell to the ground.

Zhan Rong and the others hurriedly knelt down to meet him, but she also knelt belatedly.

Qin Yunguang walked in, walked straight in front of her, stretched out his hand to pull her up, and looked her up and down: "That's right, women want to be dressed in pearls, hairpins, emerald rings, and silk and satin! You look like me two days ago. The newly named imperial concubine is simply falling out of favor! I can't wrong you."

She withdrew her hand and avoided it slightly: "Your servant is not wronged..."
