Mingyu lowered his eyes and said, "I understand that I was too willful in the past and disappointed the Queen. Now that I think about it, I regret it very much."
Ling Ruo nodded slightly and said, "Raise your head and look at the Aijia."
Mingyu raised her head in compliance with the words. When their eyes met, she felt a tremor in her heart. She had a feeling of being seen through. Before she could think about it, Ling Ruo had already said: "Whether you sincerely repent or not, Aijia's heart is clear.
Chu, I won’t say much more now, Ai Jia only has one word to remind you, is the queen willing to listen?”
Mingyu felt uncomfortable being stared at by her. She wanted to move away but didn't dare, so she could only say: "Please give me your words. I will listen attentively."
"Okay." After saying this, Ling Ruo said coldly: "This release of the ban is your last chance, Queen. If there is another time, even if you are the Queen, even if the Emperor protects you, the Ai family will never forgive you.
, if you lose your crown because of this, don’t blame the Ai family for not warning you in advance!”
These cold and bone-chilling words hit Mingyu's heart like a hammer, making her tremble with fear. She hurriedly lowered her head and said: "I will obey the emperor's words and I dare not go against it!"
"I hope the queen means what she says this time." After saying that, Ling Ruo waved her hand and said, "The Ai family is exhausted, please step back."
Mingyu didn't want to stay here for a moment, so he hurriedly left and left. Only when the shadow of Cining Palace was no longer visible did Mingyu stop, stroking his chest and gasping for air.
Wei Jingxuan said with concern: "Master, what's wrong with you?"
"The Queen Mother..." Mingyu said with a hint of fear: "We couldn't hide it from the Queen Mother. The way she looked at me just now was terrifying, and those words..."
"The Queen Mother has long been prejudiced against the Master. It is expected that she does not believe in the Master. As for that sentence... Well, the Queen Mother clearly wants to protect Concubine Xian." At this point, Wei Jingxuan glanced at Mingyu quietly and said
: "Master, is this the end of dealing with Concubine Xian?"
Mingyu was having a fierce battle between heaven and man in her heart. She was afraid, but she couldn't let go of her hatred for Xianyue. After a long time, the hatred finally took over. Mingyu gritted his teeth and said: "Nala Xianyue...she can't stay."
, as long as she is around, this palace will never be at ease. However, we must wait until we think of a perfect solution before taking action."
Wei Jingxuan said respectfully: "Yes, I will do my best to help my master eliminate the trouble."
Mingyu's lifting of the ban undoubtedly caused subtle changes in the harem structure. Although Xianyue was still responsible for the affairs of the Sixth Palace, she was no longer the most favored person. If you open the booklet of the Jingshi Room, you will find that from Qianlong
From the end of the fifth year to the beginning of the sixth year of Qianlong's reign, Hongli stayed in Kunning Palace slightly more than Yanxi Palace.
Regarding this, everyone in Yanxi Palace was angry and dissatisfied on behalf of Xianyue, but this was the emperor's business, and they could not say anything even if they were dissatisfied.
As for Concubine Yu, although she was revoked and would never serve Hongli again in her life, the existence of the fifth elder brother allowed her to remain firmly in the position of concubine, and the rumors in the palace could not shake her status.
On this day, Wei Jingxuan took the opportunity to go to Xinzheku to deliver Huan's laundry, met with Su, and told her in detail what had happened over the past year.
After hearing this, Su said slowly: "I didn't expect that so many things have happened. If it weren't for your great fortune, those fifty sticks would have killed you."
Wei Jingxuan nodded and said: "Sister Su, the queen has escaped from trouble and is favored by the emperor again. What should I do next?"
Su raised her hand and caressed Wei Jingxuan's increasingly delicate face, and said, "It is now the sixth year of Qianlong's reign. Are you sixteen?" After Wei Jingxuan nodded, she said again: "Sixteen years old, just like a bud ready to bloom.
The flower buds are delicate and pleasant, the most suitable for picking, Jingxuan, it’s time to make plans for yourself.”
Wei Jingxuan's eyebrows moved and she said tentatively: "Sister, you mean... get rid of your current identity?"
"Yes, I have told you about this a long time ago. Now, the time has come. Remember, never let down the beauty and youth that God has bestowed upon you."
There was a hint of excitement in Wei Jingxuan's eyes, but it quickly dimmed. She wrung her fingers and said, "Sister, I don't know. Because of the A Luo incident, the emperor has always been very cold to me. He never looked at me twice. I want to be like my sister."
As you said, I'm afraid...it's impossible."
"It all depends on man-made things. If you say it's impossible before it's started, you're going to kill yourself." With that said, Su added, "But your situation is indeed a bit difficult. Let me think about it carefully."
After walking back and forth in the room, she said: "Although the emperor is prejudiced against you, the queen trusts you. You can try to get her to... recommend you!"
"Recommend?" Wei Jingxuan exclaimed, then shook her head and said: "This is impossible. How could the queen recommend other women to share the emperor's favor?"
Su Shi smiled slightly and said: "With the current situation, naturally not, but what if the queen is not favored by the emperor, or feels threatened?"
Wei Jingxuan thought for a while, then shook her head in confusion and said: "I don't understand what sister means. With the emperor's affection for the queen, the situation that sister said will not happen no matter what. Unless... the queen makes a mistake and the emperor discovers it, but in that case,
Something will happen to me too."
"Of course it's not like that." After saying this, Su whispered in Wei Jingxuan's ear. Under her words, the latter's frown gradually relaxed. After Su finished speaking, she said happily:
"I understand, thank you sister for the pointer."
Su Shi smiled and said: "There is one more thing that my sister wants to remind you. Although you can try to get the queen to help you, but next... whether you are a noble or a noble concubine, you can only rely on yourself. No one can help you.
.”
Wei Jingxuan nodded and said: "I know, I will definitely try to capture the emperor's favor."
Facing her answer, Mrs. Su suddenly said: "How to catch me? With this face?" She shook her head and said: "It's useless. There is always a lot of beauty in the palace. Someone younger than you may come at some point.
Beautiful person."
Wei Jingxuan heard something in her words and asked, "In my sister's opinion, what should I do?"
Mrs. Su whispered in her ear again. This time before she could finish speaking, Wei Jingxuan had a look of shock on her face and said in a horrified voice: "Sister, what are you talking about? You want me to find... a brothel woman? I...
…How…how is this okay?”
Mrs. Su stroked her shoulder and sighed: "I know it's very difficult for you to do this, but with your origin and family background, this is the only way to maintain your kindness for a long time. I've already told you, as for using
No, it’s up to you. However, you have to decide early. Once you are really favored by the emperor, you will not be able to leave the palace again. "
