Everyone in the palace knew about Concubine Mei's miscarriage. All the evidence pointed to Consort Ru. No matter how rich Consort Ru's family was, it was hard to guarantee that she would be complete. Instead, she would have to throw in some of it. The Emperor of Tianqi had become a gay at a young age. When he was seventeen or eighteen, he had learned to rely on the daughters of the nobles to fill his harem. Therefore, the palace is like Zhen Fei, such as Fei and so on, are the daughters of dignitaries.
Now, he had finally regained his power. In the past, if he encountered such a situation, he might have given the Ru family face. But now, he had grown his wings and it was time for the Ru family to fear him.
Therefore, on the day of the incident, although the thousands of people in the Ru family were fine, Consort Ru was immediately demoted from a first-grade imperial consort to a third-grade Jieyu. As for Concubine Mei, because she had just lost a child, the Emperor conferred her the rank of third-grade Jieyu, which was just equal to Concubine Ru.
The Imperial Palace in summer always gave people a sense of tranquility, especially at noon. Just looking up at the white clouds made people feel sleepy.
"Bai Qing, you are going to lose." Nangong Hao placed a black piece on the chessboard, and then a beautiful smile appeared on his face, like the clear ripples in summer.
Bai Fengqing took a closer look at the chessboard and then pretended to be enlightened." Sigh, really. One wrong move and the whole game is lost."”His words had a double meaning, and Reed and Cheng Jun could not help but come back to their senses.
Nangong Hao smiled, picked up the chess piece, and glanced at Reed next to him,"Do you have anything to say?"”
Reed saw that Nangong Hao had noticed his awkwardness, so he nodded and said,"Ru Jieyu is requesting an audience outside Haozheng Palace."”
When Cheng Jun and Bai Feng Qing heard this, they couldn't help but shake their heads and laugh. This stupid woman, she still didn't understand the cause of the matter? Could it be that she really naively thought that the Emperor would believe her explanation?
Nangong Hao, who was slightly tired, waved his hand gently at Reed, indicating that he would not see him. Reed's expression was rather difficult because Consort Ru, who had just been demoted to Jie Yu, had been kneeling outside and could not get up. She said that if the emperor did not come out, she would continue to kneel. Now that Nangong Hao wanted him to go out and say that he refused to see him, wouldn't that be…
Seemingly noticing Li De's embarrassment, Chengjun came up with a good idea for Li De, which was to tell Ru Jieyu that the Emperor had just lost his beloved son and was immersed in grief.”Bai Fengqing laughed as soon as Cheng Jun finished speaking.
"Lord Cheng's ideas are always the best.”This was Bai Fengqing's words, and it also contained Nangong Hao's meaning. Reed did not stay for long and immediately went out to pass the message.
After the atmosphere calmed down, Bai Fengqing suddenly raised his eyebrows,'But it seems that the matter with Mei Pin isn't that simple.'”Cheng Jun's attention was attracted by this sentence. He had never cared about the Emperor's family affairs, but this sentence was related to the power of the Rujia faction in the court, so Cheng Jun listened attentively. He knew that the reason why the Emperor only demoted Ru Fei by two ranks and did not implicate the Ru family with the crime of " plotting to usurp the throne " was because the Ru family was still useful. Once the Ru family died, the balance of power between the two families would be broken.
"Could it be that Bai Qing wants to say that this matter has nothing to do with Ru Jie Yu?”Nangong Hao also raised his head. Although his lips were curled into a smile, Cheng Jun and Bai Fengqing, who had worked with him for a long time, knew that the current him was the most difficult to figure out. That was not a happy expression. Perhaps, he already knew the clues behind this, but he just didn't point it out.
At this moment, Bai Fengqing was putting away the chess pieces one by one. That day, Mei Pin's pulse was indeed a symptom of miscarriage, but," Bai Fengqing paused and looked at Nangong Hao." The pulse showed that she had miscarried a few days before the accident.”As if he had noticed that Nangong Hao's grip on the chess piece had tightened a little, Bai Feng Qing naturally understood and did not say anything more.
Cheng Jun, who was at the side, had guessed most of it after hearing Bai Feng Qing's words. Concubine Mei had a miscarriage, but she didn't announce it. There was no other reason for this other than her own.
After a long time, Emperor Chongxi of Tianqi suddenly put away all his smile,"I really didn't expect that I would still be careless after all my precautions." He had thought that he could keep this prince, but he did not expect it to be the same as last time.”His words were mixed with a trace of heartache, boredom, and disgust. The Imperial Palace was truly a dirty and cold place.
"Bai Fengqing also became serious. He didn't expose Concubine Mei and instead promoted her to Jie Yu. This kind of method seems to be…"
Nangong Hao smiled again,[She is still useful. At least, she can be used to pacify the harem, right?] This way, the concubines would not pay attention to Cui Mei Palace for the time being, right? many words
Bai Fengqing and Cheng Jun looked at each other. This was his usual style. There was no need for the truth. The truth was already clear in front of him. What he needed was the person he wanted to be the sinner. That was the most important thing. No matter how wronged Ru Fei was this time, as long as he wanted Ru Fei to be a sinner, then she was.
The three of them were speechless for a moment.
***************
"Momo, do you think the emperor is tired of me? Otherwise, why hadn't he come to Yulin Palace for so many days?”Concubine Mei, no, it should be called Handsome Fairness Mei. She still used her usual innocent tone to ask Luo Ya. As she spoke, she was picking up her teacup and preparing to sip tea. He pressed his lips to hers in a familiar manner, but he didn't drink the tea at all. She had already mastered all of the detailed movements and standard etiquette. However, where did she have the slightest bit of a young girl's innocence?
What Luoya saw was just an emperor's concubine who was repeating the stupid and pitiful tragedy of her predecessors in order to fight for favor.
When the incident at the Smoke Appreciation Pavilion reached her ears, she was already mentally prepared. But she never expected that she had truly underestimated Handsome Fairness Mei. She was actually smart enough to find Consort Zhen to be a witness. If she helped Consort Zhen today, Consort Zhen would definitely come to her hypocritically to discuss the merger in the future. At that time, it would be another bloody battle for whoever swallowed who and who rebelled against who.
Perhaps it was because of her maternal instincts, Loya suddenly pitied the child. That's right, it was strangled by its laughable mother before it was even born.
When she came back to her senses and saw that Handsome Fairness Mei was staring at her, Luoya pretended to be stupid and laughed,[This man's thoughts are not as easy to guess as a woman's…Presumably, the Emperor is worried about the state affairs.]”When Handsome Fairness Mei heard this, she clearly felt that this " Granny Li " Luoya was an old person with an old mindset, always using this to brush her off.
Actually, at this moment, Luo Ya really wanted to say to Handsome Fairness Mei, you should be satisfied with your current life! Since ancient times, only the concubines in the harem would be demoted faster than the elevator. No one had been promoted so quickly. In just a few short months, you've already advanced from an Eighth Stage lover to a Third Stage Jie Yu, what else do you want?
The wind blew against Roya's face, and her forehead was already covered in sweat. At this moment, she only wanted to sigh. This motherf * cker is so unlucky to meet a corpse!
****************
Ru Jie Yu returned to her Bright Moon Palace in a huff. Although her level had dropped, she had been spoiled since she was young, so how could she be willing to submit? Someone from the Ru family also said that she had to explain clearly to prevent the Ru family from being harmed. However, the Emperor did not even want to see her. How was she going to explain?
Thinking about it, she really did push Handsome Fairness Mei that day. As for the strength she used, after so many days, she couldn't figure it out for a moment. Could it be that he had really accidentally injured Handsome Fairness Mei? Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel a lingering fear. If someone framed her in the future, wouldn't she have to move out of this Bright Moon Palace?
Just as Ru Jie Yu's thoughts were in a mess, she suddenly remembered something from a long time ago.
She stood up with a determined look in her eyes.
Yes! It must have been when Handsome Fairness Mei was still a prostitute that she thought that it was really him who had ordered people to push her into the lotus pond last time, so she bore a grudge! This b * tch, she must have framed me!
Revenge tenfold!
Like a beautiful lady in the silent air, she spat out these vicious words word by word. B * tch, you harmed me today, don't blame me for being merciless in the future!
****************
Compared to Bright Moon Palace, Concubine Zhen's Bright Sun Palace was more harmonious.
At this moment, Concubine Zhen was drawing paintings in front of the table. If one did not associate those dark things with her, she would look like a talented woman with a slender figure and a face like a pear blossom. It was a pity that she was born into a noble family and entered the Imperial Palace. But on the contrary, if she was born in a poor family, she would definitely look at her own reflection in the river and sigh. Why wasn't I born in a royal family?
There were always many ifs in life. When you achieved the current reality, you would look forward to another hypothesis.
She gently put down her brush and took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat off her forehead. If such a seemingly obedient and demure woman had a heart that matched hers, the emperor of Tianqi would probably love her dearly, right? many words
No matter how smart the women in the harem were, they were still stupid. She was clearly thinking of ways to capture the Emperor's heart, but she did not know that the Emperor loved her for who she really was. Even if she made mistakes occasionally, she would still be jealous occasionally.
At this moment, a drop of ink from the tip of the pen accidentally dripped onto the painting. The originally perfect lotus fragrance painting was now stained with thick ink.
Without any hesitation, Consort Zhen picked up the paper and started tearing it. Her movements were light and elegant, as if she was doing something very normal.
"Why did you tear such a good painting?”The palace maid beside him asked. In their eyes, Consort Zhen was an extremely amiable person, so a moment of verbal offense should not be a big deal.
However, Consort Zhen suddenly smiled,"Although the painting is good, it's useless. What's the point of keeping something useless?"”
When the palace maid heard this, she suddenly felt a thin layer of sweat on her forehead. Fortunately, Xia Tian did not notice anything unusual.
As if remembering something, Concubine Zhen suddenly said to the palace maid,"Go to Ye Ting Palace and say that I'm looking for Lin Yuan and Lin Liang."”
The maid obeyed and retired.
Consort Zhen's gaze returned to the painting. After a long time, she slowly said to herself,"I can draw a good painting. As for whether it's good or not, it's up to you."”
