"What do you want to say?" Concubine Yu is different from Mingyu. She has clearly seen through her. In this case, there is no point in going around in circles.
Concubine Yu smiled sweetly and said: "I have a way to help you get the favor of the emperor and make you get what you wish for."
Wei Jingxuan was not carried away by her words and said calmly: "What do you want me to do?"
A trace of surprise flashed across Concubine Yu's eyes, and then she said with a smile on her face: "It depends on whether you are willing to do something that is beneficial to you and me."
Concubine Yu called Wei Jingxuan to her and whispered in her ear. After hearing this, the latter opened her eyes wide and said in shock: "You...you want this slave to betray the Queen?"
Concubine Yu smiled and said: "If you don't tell secrets in front of Mingren, I know very well how loyal you are to the queen. If I couldn't be sure of this, I wouldn't be standing here today; do you care?"
There is only one person, and that is...me!"
Wei Jingxuan wrung her fingers and said nervously: "But this matter is not trivial. I'm afraid... I'm afraid... I won't be able to help you."
Concubine Yu glanced at her and said softly: "What's the matter? Are you worried that I will not keep my promise after the matter is completed? No, what I said must count."
Wei Jingxuan's heart was filled with conflict between heaven and man. Although she wanted to get rid of her current low status, she didn't know whether what was in front of her was an opportunity or a trap, and it was hard to decide for a moment.
Concubine Yu did not force her and let her think slowly. After a long time, Wei Jingxuan finally made up her mind and gritted her teeth and said: "Okay, I promise you, I hope you will not break your promise in the future. Otherwise, even if you fight to the death, you will not be able to break your promise."
I must seek justice from my empress."
Concubine Yu held her sweaty hand and said with a smile: "Okay, from now on you and I will advance and retreat together to seek wealth and glory together."
After Wei Jingxuan left, Dongmei whispered: "Mother, if you tell her your plan like this, aren't you afraid that she will tell it or tell the queen?"
"There is no proof. Even if she tells it, no one will believe it. As for the queen..." Concubine Yu sneered: "Think about it, after the queen gave birth to her seventh brother, did she send anyone to the imperial tea room?
" Without waiting for Dongmei's reply, she already said: "I sent Xiao Quanzi to check, and there was nothing wrong even once.
No, the queen today is only focused on taking care of the seventh elder brother, who has high hopes for the emperor, and may have long forgotten the existence of Wei Jingxuan. Wei Jingxuan has no loyalty to the queen in the first place, and with this incident in mind, do you think she will still take care of that?
Has the relationship between master and servant become so weak that it is almost non-existent?"
Concubine Yu stroked the railing and said coolly: "Looking at her, I am like looking at another myself, so I am sure that she will do what I say."
Dongmei nodded and said, "Master, what should we do next?"
Concubine Yu curled her lips slightly and said slowly: "You don't have to do anything, just wait and watch the show."
A few days later, Wei Jingxuan came to Kunning Palace. Mingyu was very happy to know that she had come. He quickly called her in, took a look at her, and said: "Well, she looks a little thinner. The job of the imperial tea room is very hard, isn't it?"
?”
"Thank you for your concern, your Majesty. I'm used to it and it's not hard." After saying that, she took out a pair of vivid cloth tigers and said, "I knew that my master gave birth to the seventh brother, so I made a pair of cloth tigers for the seventh brother.
Playing, I don’t know if Brother Qi likes it or not.”
After Mingyu took it, he smiled and said: "These cloth tigers are so cute, Yong Cong must like them. Ji You, take them to the seventh brother."
After Ji Youyi left, Wei Jingxuan took the tea from the palace attendant, offered it to Mingyu and said, "My Lady, how are you lately?"
Mingyu took a sip of tea and said, "Just like that, I can't say whether it's good or bad." After a pause, she said, "I'm used to hearing you call me the mistress, but now I feel a little uncomfortable when I hear you call me empress."
Habit."
Wei Jingxuan smiled and said: "Then I'd better call you Master." After saying this, she hesitated and said: "I heard... Concubine Xian is about to give birth?"
Mentioning Xianyue, Mingyu's dignified face was slightly distorted. After the palace man went down, he said coldly: "Yes, it should be this month. It's really amazing that such a situation has allowed her to survive until now.
"
"She is already a royal concubine now. If she gives birth to another child, won't she become an imperial concubine?" Wei Jingxuan's words made Mingyu very irritated, and she said coldly: "Stop talking, I don't want to mention this person again."
Wei Jingxuan sighed and said: "I don't need to mention it, but things will not change. Master, you must be careful about her. I am worried that her ambitions are not limited to the imperial concubine."
Mingyu clenched the tea cup tightly and said: "More than the imperial concubine, does she also want the position of queen? Don't forget, she is the descendant of a sinner. I heard that when the emperor originally canonized the imperial concubine, many courtiers opposed it.
, it was the Emperor’s insistence and the Queen Mother’s support that forced it to be registered. With her background, she is not qualified to be appointed as the middle palace.”
"But she has the favor of the emperor. When I was in the imperial tea room, I heard from other palace people that the emperor often visited her and even named the child in her belly. How could a concubine's son be named before he was born?
Look at Brother Six, he's almost half a year old and he hasn't even been named yet."
Mingyu shook his head and murmured: "No, I am the emperor's legitimate wife. The emperor will not do that, absolutely not."
"Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just in case. Think about it, when rumors were spreading, the emperor would even go against the officials in order to protect their mother and son. Fortunately, it was finally found out to be a rumor. What if it was true... This servant is really not good.
I dare to imagine what the consequences will be.”
Her words made Mingyu feel more and more uneasy, and he forced himself to calm down and said: "No matter what, the emperor will never make that woman his queen, absolutely not!"
"But..." As soon as Wei Jingxuan opened her mouth, she was interrupted by Mingyu's sharp voice, "Without a but, the emperor will never appoint a sinner as the middle palace!"
Seeing that Mingyu was so excited, Wei Jingxuan did not continue talking. After she calmed down a little, she said in a low voice, "I hope this is all because of my overthinking."
She left Kunning Palace, but Mingyu couldn't calm down. Wei Jingxuan's words kept echoing in her ears, and her mind kept recalling Hongli's openness and protection to Xianyue over the years.
Yes, she was still the queen, but she could feel that her position in Hongli's heart was gradually being replaced by Nala Xianyue, and even the birth of Yongcong could not reverse it.
Nala Xiayue... the person who married into the dormitory with her has become the deepest nightmare in her life. She wants to get rid of it, but she doesn't know how to get rid of it. She is really afraid that one day, Xianyue will completely replace her.
