Jiang Jinwen's eyes were horizontal and sneered: "it's just that the father of the previous dynasty did something again. The emperor comforted the people. What's the difference between Jieyu and her concubine? They are all the same in the cold palace..."
Yin Yin covers her mouth flustered. "Cold palace is too unlucky. Don't talk nonsense."
Jiang Jinwen pushed her hand away coldly, "nonsense. What's the difference between my appearance in Zhongcui palace and Lenggong? He just regarded me as a victim."
Zhuang Youyi lowered her eyes. "In fact, the emperor came to me a few days ago."
Jiang Jinwen was stunned. He asked, "what he wants you to do is not to change his mind and want you to be a real concubine."
"No." Zhuang Youyi waved, "the emperor wanted me to be the adoptive mother of Meng Yanqi, the child of imperial concubine Chen, but I refused."
"You are also powerful. You dare to refuse the emperor. But your identity is different. It's no big deal to refuse."
"In addition to refusing the emperor, I also told him about you."
Jiang Jinwen gave her a very alert look. "What did you tell the emperor about me?"
Zhuang Youyi saw that there was a sullen look between her eyebrows and eyes, and said softly, "I just think the emperor really ignored you. So I couldn't help saying more."
"How did the emperor reply?"
"The emperor said..." Zhuang Youyi observed her face and bited her lips. "The emperor said he didn't like Lord Jiang. He said that if you were lucky, Lord Jiang would..."
"I see," she said before she finished. Jiang Jinwen was already clear in her heart, and a sad smile was raised on her lips. "Sure enough, no wonder he doesn't like to look at me. That's why."
Zhuang Youyi looked at her anxiously, "what are you going to do in the future?"
"What can I do? He doesn't like his father. I'm caught on both sides in the middle. What else can I do? I can't run to the study," said Jiang Jinwen, gently pulling the corners of her mouth and empty eyes, holding up a wine glass on the table and drinking it. "I just think it's a good thing. It's just like that."
Zhuang Youyi patted the back of her hand, "don't be too sad. As long as there is Lord Jiang, he doesn't dare to do anything to you after all."
Jiang Jinwen seemed not to hear her talking. She poured the wine and drank it cup by cup. The hot wine poured into her stomach through her throat. It seemed that someone lit a torch in her stomach, burning her tears.
Zhuang Youyi looked at her silently and said in a low voice, "since you are in a bad mood, drink slowly here, and I won't bother you."
She got up and left the table, waved to Linlang and Yinyin, "go and call Prince Chun."
Lin Lang's face changed, "do you call Penglai hall?"
Zhuang Youyi raised her lips and said, "can't you call Zhongcui palace?" she turned to Yinyin and said, "your mother still doesn't go back today. Just have a rest in my palace."
Yin Yin turned to see Jiang Jinwen's red cheeks and quickly nodded.
Su Rushuang was massaging Meng Qianzhong's back in Huayang palace. Suddenly, a palace man came in from the outside and said in a hurry, "madam, the German imperial concubine is coming."
Su Rushuang's heart stagnated and quickly stared at her, "what are you worried about? Isn't the German imperial concubine coming? What are you talking about?"
Meng Qianzhong said softly with a smile, "I'm really busy today. The Duan king of the state of Qin is coming, and so is the German imperial concubine."
"Duan Wang?" Su Rushuang turned her eyes. "Imperial concubine Chen is gone. Is Duan Wang going to take Xue ronghua back to the state of Qin?"
Meng Qianchong lowered his eyes and flashed a strange light at the bottom of his eyes. "He didn't mention it to me."
Su Rushan didn't pay attention to his answer. She just worried about how the German imperial concubine came when the emperor came to Huayang palace.
Seeing that the two masters had no reaction, the palace man dared to ask again, "madam, do you want to invite the German imperial concubine?"
Su Rushuang turned her eyes angrily and muttered, "please don't come in and let her bask outside."
Meng Qianchong also nodded slightly and said, "I haven't gone to Zhongcui palace to see the German imperial concubine these days. It's good to come down."
Su Rushuang bit her lip and showed a trace of displeasure between her eyebrows and eyes.
After a while, the imperial concubine came in with the imperial concubine. Su Rushuang looked at her carefully and saw that she was dressed as an ordinary person. She should not have come to demonstrate. She was relaxed again.
Luo Ninghai respectfully said in his heart, "my concubine, see the emperor and your concubine."
Su Rushan glanced at her obliquely, without saying anything, and didn't want her to get up. Meng Qianchong raised his hand a little and said, "get up, Princess De, why are you free to come here today?"
Luo Ninghai's eyes were bright and said in a deep voice, "the emperor, empress, ministers and concubines saw a very serious thing when sorting out the materials of female officials in the back palace."
"Oh, it's to deal with the affairs of the harem," Su Rushuang said with a faint smile, "Princess de has worked hard."
Meng Qianzhong was always very dissatisfied with the way she spoke unkindly to Princess de. he gave her a cold stare and smiled at Princess de: "it's really hard for you to manage the harem alone. What's the serious thing?"
Luo Ninghai glanced at the indifferent imperial concubine, "this thing is about Huayang palace."
Su Rushan was stunned and immediately asked loudly, "what's the matter about Huayang palace? The things here in this palace should also be handed over to you."
Meng Qian looked at her with warning eyes. "Princess De is in charge of the Phoenix seal in the back palace. Anything in the palace can be controlled. Are you disobeying me?"
Su Rushuang's face turned white and stared at the German imperial concubine with hatred. "What's the matter? Tell me quickly. Don't sell off."
Luo Ninghai moved in his heart, held back the smile on his lips and asked the palace maid behind him to present the evidence, "emperor, Xiaoyi, the female official in the imperial concubine's palace, was originally an ordinary palace maid. Later, she entered Huayang palace and became a female official. But when she investigated, she found that her mother's family was from Mu's army."
Su Rushan opened her eyes wide and couldn't say anything directly. Why did the German imperial concubine find out about it.
Meng Qianzhong had known Xiao Yi's true identity for a long time. He just flipped through the evidence perfunctorily, and then said casually, "well, this matter is really serious. It's hard for the German imperial concubine."
"But the emperor, Xiao Yi is the daughter of the rebels. It's a great hidden danger that she is now a female official in the imperial concubine's palace," Luo Ninghai pleaded. "The emperor, please find out this person for the sake of the safety of the imperial concubine." she turned her head to the imperial concubine and said with deep affection, "Empress, please consider the safety of the palace. Even if you like this female official, you must bear the pain to give up."
Su Rushuang's face turned red and white. It was clearly a female official in her palace. She was pulled out by the German imperial concubine and embarrassed her in front of the emperor. The emperor thought she was so confused that he didn't even know what kind of people in the palace.
"The palace knows," Su Rushan endured her anger and shame, "the emperor has asked someone to deal with it."
Luo Ninghai was stunned and made a very surprised appearance, "Emperor... Did the emperor know Xiao Yi's identity long ago?"
Meng Qianzhong hummed softly, "after I know, I immediately understand her life. Princess de doesn't have to worry."
Luo Ninghai suppressed his inner nervousness, and his lips showed a reassuring smile, "that's good. I'm afraid I'll leave this scourge in Huayang palace and worry about the life of the imperial concubine."
Su Rushuang turned a white eye in his heart and said faintly, "there's no such thing. The palace looks at Xiao Yi and is very clever. He won't go against the meaning of the palace at all, so he didn't find it. Later, the emperor knew it and solved it for the palace."
Luo Ninghai deliberately asked, "that empress should not feel heartache. After all, it's the people around you."
Su Rushuang looked at the emperor in panic, saw that his face was calm, and said in a strange tone: "what's the heartache in this palace? She is the daughter of the rebels, so she should be."
"My concubines were afraid of my mother's heartache, so they hesitated for a long time before coming to Huayang palace," Luo Ninghai smiled, "but they were relieved to see that my mother was not unhappy."
"There is no place in the palace to be sad," Su Rushuang sneered. "On the contrary, he was very happy to see the German imperial concubine."
Meng Qianchong raised his eyes and swept a circle between them. "Since they are all happy, have a meal in Huayang palace."
When Meng Yuanzhen came to Penglai hall, it was already a long night. Yinyin played a glass lamp in front of him. The glass beads hanging from the lamp were colorful under the light. He looked at the colorful lights on the path, and his heart was so quiet that he couldn't hear any sound like this night.
"Why is minjieyu in Penglai hall," Meng Yuanzhen wondered, "she has gone to eat here again?"
Yin Yin squeezed out a reluctant smile. "My mother is in a bad mood these days. She often comes to Qifei to drink."
"Drink?" Meng Yuanzhen frowned. "You slaves don't persuade the master. Drinking is very harmful."
"My mother is in a bad mood. She can only use wine to relieve her worries."
"Why is she in a bad mood," Meng Yuanzhen responded when he stepped down. "Is it the emperor's business? I heard Princess Qi say that the emperor is only perfunctory to min Jieyu and has never spent the night with her."
"Yes," Yin Yin said with a embarrassed smile, "my mother has been in the palace for so long and hasn't been to bed."
Meng Yuanzhen was stunned and asked, "is it Lord Jiang who is the reason why the emperor doesn't like to see Jie Yu?"
Yin Yin said with a bitter smile, "the Lord is so clever. You guessed it at once."
Meng Yuanzhen bowed his head and sighed, "the women in the palace are nothing but victims of political interests. I should have saved Jinwen earlier."
"When the empress enters the palace, the prince is still in the palace. Don't be sad and blame yourself."
Meng Yuanzhen wondered, "why can't you see concubine Qi, the leader of the Penglai palace?"
Yin Yin said awkwardly, "Princess Qi fell asleep first. She's not in good health, so she asked the Lord to take care of Jie Yu."
Meng Yuanzhen stared at her. Yin Yin also knew that the reason was absurd. She simply covered up the past, "I remember that Jieyu said the LORD would help, so she dared to ask the Lord to come."
"It doesn't matter. Jieyu just drank too much," Meng Yuanzhen said with a soft smile. "Fortunately, I didn't meet anyone all the way. I'll be fine after I helped Jieyu wake up."
Yin Yin smiled and said, "my maid thanked the Lord on behalf of Jieyu."
