Treacherous Living in the Imperial Harem

Chapter 227 I Have Special Filial Piety Skills

"Stop for the Ai family!" Sure enough, when she heard that the concubines were going to Yaoyu Palace to kneel down and beg the eldest princess to let her go, the empress dowager couldn't shirk immediately. As soon as the eldest princess pushed it out, the empress dowager became cruel.

He was worried that if this happened, Princess Minghui's originally good card would not be easy to use in the future.

"Although Minghui is an ignorant child." The Empress Dowager suppressed her anger and said, "But it is not enough to talk about murdering the concubines! Especially you, Concubine Rui, since you entered the palace until now, the two of you have not even spoken much. , why does she have trouble with you?"

Concubine Rui immediately said, "I don't know how I have offended Her Highness the Princess...Although I have been favored by His Majesty and took charge of the Six Palaces, I have never been harsh on Her Highness the Princess!"

The implication is that maybe it's not the princess Minghui who I offended, but she wants to make things difficult for Chunjia, so the princess won't let Chunjia love her dearly?

The Empress Dowager almost grabbed the tea bowl and threw it at her. She took two deep breaths before holding back, and said expressionlessly, "You also know that you are the deputy in charge of the Sixth Palace?"

"Then do you think Ming Hui can poison these many people in such a short day under your nose?"

"If that's the case, if Ai's family remembers correctly, because of the vacancy of the middle palace, the only person in charge of the sixth palace in the palace is Concubine Xian and you, right?"

"Concubine Xian survived a near-death a few days ago, but it's not finished yet, so it's fine. You have presided over the palace affairs alone for a long time, if your ability is limited, why didn't you say it earlier? You said it earlier, let the emperor or Ai's family find someone I'll share it with you, as for this appearance, in such a big palace, these many concubines were poisoned or almost poisoned?!"

"You still have the guts to come to Ai's house to cry, and you have the nerve to cry with the second prince in your arms! Look at Ai's house, no matter whether Minghui did this or not, you should be punished first!"

Concubine Rui: "..."

What do you mean, Concubine Xian did not come here alone once or twice before, did the Empress Dowager treat Concubine Xian like this?

Cooperating with her, Ouyang, is easy to bully?

Concubine Rui took a deep breath, "To the Empress Dowager, His Royal Highness Princess Minghui can even reach into the palace of the Concubine Xian, let alone other places?"

"Don't talk about Concubine Xian with the Ai family!" The Empress Dowager sneered, "It's understandable for Concubine Xian to go wrong alone, but what about you? There are only a few concubines in the palace, and each of them is either so bad or not. That’s not good, you should ask yourself, what has become of you, the deputy in charge of the Six Palaces?!”

"Today, if one or two people come to Aijia, they won't bother to talk about you, after all, your days in the palace are short."

"But how many people have come here at this moment? How many people have accidents? Ask yourself, this harem is in such a mess, what's the difference if you are there or not? You, Concubine Rui, don't know how guilty you are!"

"If someone else does this, why are you angry? I won't let the first one go!" Concubine Rui was angry. She just listened to her family. After being asked to enter the palace, she kept a low profile. It wasn't that she was short-tempered. Her natal grandfather said, go with the emperor and the virtuous concubine, don't be afraid of offending the empress dowager, since you are the emperor anyway, it might be a good thing to fight with the empress dowager, so I said bluntly, "Princess Ke Minghui Your Highness - the status is so precious that the concubine dare not say anything, let alone such people as concubines?"

"Now the only person in the palace who is qualified to preach to Princess Minghui is you. If people like this concubine don't come to you, who else can they turn to?"

He handed the second prince who was tired of crying and dumb in his hand, "The concubines are not only doing this for themselves, but also for the emperor's heir! You have always attached great importance to the emperor's heir, otherwise why would you be so angry?" Are there concubines and concubines entering the palace?"

This sentence hurt the Empress Dowager too much. If she knew that the Xiao Yun family that Concubine Shu casually stuffed in back then would be Concubine Yun Xian today, how could she nod that way? !

Hearing the words, she was furious: "You lowly servant girl keeps saying that the emperor's heir is the emperor's heir, you can see for yourself how the emperor's heir in your hand has been tossed by you? You are not the only one who raises the emperor's heir in the palace, You are so cruel and ruthless that you have to bring such a small child here, and you don’t take his life seriously at all! Look at Concubine Xian, Mrs. Yaoning and Concubine De. When will they come to Ai’s house and take the initiative to take the baby under their knees? Take the child with you!?"

"I just want you to see, because of the turmoil in the palace today, the grievances of the emperor's heirs." Concubine Rui couldn't admit it, and began to wipe her tears, "Thinking that even if you don't feel sorry for these people, at least you do. I love the emperor's heir, you say that, I can't afford it!"

"Although there are some imperial heirs in the palace, they are not very prosperous. Moreover, even if the royal heirs are prosperous, any of them are precious." The Empress Dowager said with a livid face, "If you can't raise Alright, give it to those who can raise it, and don’t make excuses here! Concubine Xian was almost alive before, so many days ago, do you think there is any problem with the two children under Concubine Xian’s lap? Don’t make excuses here, I am incompetent It's incompetent!"

The Empress Dowager scolded Concubine Rui and didn't give her a chance to reply, so she asked the left and right to drive a group of concubines and attendants out of Qingci Palace, saying that all of this was caused by Concubine Rui's incompetence, and that Concubine Rui was ordered to leave within three days. Give her an explanation, otherwise don't be a concubine Rui, just like Luo Hanyi, go down and become Jieyu: "It's still for your grandfather's sake, otherwise, you are an idiot, and being a concubine is flattering you." Already!"

Concubine Rui had never been scolded so harshly by her elders before, she was trembling with anger for a while, and after being persuaded and comforted by Luo Hanyi and others, she returned to her palace and drank half a cup of tea before calming down. After handing over the second prince to the care of the palace servants, he went straight to Huanhua Palace, and Xunyun Fenghuang cried out: "Your Majesty, it's not that the concubines are careless, it's really the Empress Dowager who said that the concubine has no place to be ashamed, and there is no way to continue the trouble!"

"Why are you so honest?" Because of the promised marriage, Yun Fenghuang was a lot gentler to her, and sighed after listening to the ins and outs, "Since she told you to give her an explanation within three days, why did you come back?" Quit the flags and drums in your own palace? You wouldn’t send people to forcefully break into the Yaoyu Palace to search Princess Huichang’s residence to find some evidence or something?”

Concubine Rui said in surprise: "But the eldest princess has a noble status..."

"So what?" Yun Fenghuang said calmly, "Her status is only due to Emperor Xiaozong, but who is the Empress Dowager? Emperor Xiaozong's biological mother is also a concubine mother! You can say that you followed the orders of the Empress Dowager." Acting, who dares to stop you? Who is qualified to stop you?"

"But the Empress Dowager didn't..."

"Who said no? The Empress Dowager has told you to give me an explanation. Doesn't this mean that you have the full authority to handle this matter? Then all those who do not cooperate and are obedient are violating the orders of the Empress Dowager." You deserve it to be cleaned up!" Yun Fenghuang patted the back of her hand for fear of being afraid, and said earnestly, "If the Empress Dowager sends someone to stop it afterwards, at most you have misunderstood the Empress Dowager's intentions, no one is a sage." No fault, what's the big deal? In the end, it's because of your filial piety, eager to fulfill the orders of the Empress Dowager, and you can't hide your flaws!"

Concubine Rui: "..." No, is filial piety like this?

Does Concubine Xian feel that she is the most pure and filial?

Confused for a moment, Concubine Rui murmured, "The concubine is going now...?"

"It's not easy for you to go now." Yun Fenghuang sighed, "You have come to this palace in person, who would not doubt that this palace ordered you to misunderstand the empress dowager's meaning? Next time, next time When encountering similar things, be smarter and more courageous. You are a concubine after all, what are you afraid of?"

Concubine Rui thought to herself that this palace is actually quite courageous, even among ordinary noble girls, but who can compare with you who dare to find trouble for the master just days after entering the palace without a high family background?

"...It's my concubine's stupidity." She bowed her head and admitted her mistake, and finally asked humbly for advice, "Then... Madam, what should I do next?"

Yun Fenghuang flipped the lid of the tea bowl, looked up at her, and said softly: "What should we do? As women, we are married from our father to our husband at home, but it doesn't matter whether it is His Highness Princess Minghui or the Empress Dowager. It's not convenient for His Majesty to say anything. In this case, can you not tell your natal family and ask your natal family to help mediate for a while?"

Seeing Concubine Rui suddenly realized, she stated that she would immediately send a message to the family to arrange for the front court to exert force, and reminded, "You are all noble girls, and you must be well-educated. If you are wronged, your father and brother will probably persuade you to bear it. So, They should know it's a big deal."

Concubine Rui understood what she meant, Princess Ming Hui accused Concubine Xian of murdering her, so she retaliated with fire, but there was evidence.

So now that the concubine of Liugong was poisoned by Minghui, there should be evidence.

Otherwise, it is not enough confidence to tear upwards.

"Poor Your Highness Princess Minghui." Concubine Rui returned to her palace again, and while sending someone to send a letter to her family, she sighed to Zhuoshu, "The first emperor is just such a direct daughter, I'm afraid it will be bad in the future."

"The servant girl thinks that His Highness has nothing to be pitiful or not. I can only say that it is her own fault." Zhuoshu whispered, "As His Highness, as long as you don't care about everything, who can wrong her? It's Your Majesty. She is looking for a son-in-law, and will keep her prosperous and carefree for the rest of her life? She just got involved, and the first one aimed at the concubine Xian. The Empress Dowager can do nothing about it, Your Highness has always lived under the wings of the Empress Dowager, how could he be this opponent?"

Concubine Rui shook her head and said: "If you think this way, it would be unfair to Her Royal Highness Princess Minghui, just because she has been protected by the empress dowager, and her first mother died in front of her. If she can still live her life calmly, she will be too kind. It's cold."

After all, Minghui is not very close to Chunjia's Liugong, Concubine Rui didn't take it to heart after saying a few words, but she was thinking: "With such a big commotion today, I don't know if His Majesty will come to us later. ?Although His Majesty is almost at Concubine Xian's place these days, Concubine Xian is not here for the matter of going to Qingci Palace today."

So, in order to understand the situation, the emperor should also come to her side, right?

Then she was disappointed, Chunjia did not go to Huanhua Palace that night, but went to Qiongfang Palace.
