Concubine Yu glanced at Wei Jingxuan and said, "Aunt Wei, Dongmei is not sensible, so don't argue with her."
Concubine Yu's words and deeds made Wei Jingxuan feel cold all over, and she said in a trembling voice: "I am useless as a servant if I can't get rid of Xia Qing, but if her family hadn't died suddenly, it wouldn't have happened like this."
Concubine Yu's long eyelashes trembled, she leaned forward and said softly: "So, you are blaming me?"
Wei Jingxuan shook her head repeatedly and said, "I don't dare. Everything is my fault. I know my fault."
Concubine Yu waved her hand and said in a cold voice: "Okay, don't say these insincere words. In the case of Xia Qing, you did have dirty hands and feet. But luckily you had some brains and knew that you would die to gain the Queen's trust, so you didn't make things worse."
Continue to worsen, otherwise you will really die and it will be difficult to atone for your sins!"
Wei Jingxuan said solemnly: "I know this, and I promise that it will never happen again."
Concubine Yu's lips curled up slightly, and she said in a cold voice: "Tell me, why do you want me to save you?"
Wei Jingxuan swallowed hard and said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty knows about Princess He Jing."
Hearing these words, the relaxation and comfort on Concubine Yu's face disappeared. She stared closely at Wei Jingxuan and said, "What did you say? Say it again?"
Wei Jingxuan immediately told the matter exactly as it was, and then said: "The emperor is still considering whether to depose the queen, and I am worried... No matter whether the emperor deposes the queen or not, I will not let this slave and the others go." At this point, she went to
He crawled forward a few steps, kowtowed and said, "My queen, please save this slave's life."
Concubine Yu ignored her words, thought for a moment, and said, "How did the emperor know about this?"
"I heard from the Queen that after what happened to Princess He Jing, the Emperor has been secretly investigating, and now he finally found the clues." Speaking of this, she said nervously: "I can't believe that a place as far away as Hejian Mansion can be found.
, the emperor will find out."
Concubine Yu said with a gloomy face: "The emperor is determined to investigate, and no matter how far away he is, he may not be able to find out. However, I really didn't expect that it has been almost two years, and the emperor is still investigating."
Wei Jingxuan looked at Concubine Yu longingly, and said sadly: "My queen, I have always been loyal to you, you can't just die without saving her!"
Concubine Yu stood up and walked to her, bent down to help Wei Jingxuan, who was uneasy, and said warmly: "Why are you so nervous? When did I say I won't save you?"
Wei Jingxuan showed a happy expression and quickly wanted to kneel down to thank her. Concubine Yu stopped her and said, "Okay, there is no need to perform these false rituals." Then she smiled and said: "Actually, even if I don't save you, you will be fine.
"
Wei Jingxuan looked at her in confusion. Concubine Yu gently stroked her cheek and said, "Have you forgotten where you were on duty when the accident happened in Changle?"
Wei Jingxuan subconsciously said: "My slave is at the Royal Tea House..." Halfway through, she came to her senses and said in surprise, "That's right, my servant was working in the Royal Tea Room at the time. The affairs of Kunning Palace have nothing to do with my servant at all."
Concubine Yu smiled and said, "Are you relieved now?"
Wei Jingxuan saluted gratefully and said, "Thank you very much for your guidance, otherwise I would be extremely anxious right now."
Concubine Yu patted her shoulder lightly and said, "Just feel at ease. Even if the emperor really blames you without asking the reason, I will speak for you and will definitely keep you safe."
Wei Jingxuan was even more grateful. After thanking her repeatedly, she left the west courtyard. After her back disappeared from sight, Dongmei curled her lips and said: "This Wei Jingxuan really cherishes her life. The emperor has not yet deposed her, so she is in a hurry to beg for help."
The master protected me, and he only focused on himself, without even mentioning the queen's safety."
Xiao Quanzi said from the side: "She hasn't gotten what she wants, so she won't be willing to die; as for the queen...if she has this master in her heart, she won't betray the queen again and again." At this point, he looked at Yu
The concubine said: "Master, do you think the emperor will really depose the queen?"
Concubine Yu pondered for a moment, shook her head and said: "I don't know, but I let you know why the emperor seems so worried today. It turned out to be just a pretense."
Dongmei frowned and thought for a moment and said: "The emperor has always been tolerant to the queen, so he just said that A Luo's matter was fine. Even though he knew it was the queen who did it, he still tried his best to protect the imperial concubine. Even if the imperial concubine got into trouble in front of the queen mother, she still refused to protect her.
After being deposed, now... I'm afraid it will just go away again."
Concubine Yu narrowed her eyes slightly and said coldly: "It's better to be like this, otherwise there will be one less person who can control Nala Xianyue, which is not a good thing for me." The queen has never been the one she worried about.
Man, Nala Xianyue is the opponent she cares about.
Xiao Quanzi said: "But if the imperial concubine knew about it, she would definitely not give up. It might cause a bigger fuss than what happened with A Luo last time."
Concubine Yu smiled coldly and said: "The emperor didn't mention it, and the queen didn't mention it. How could she know? In the final analysis, her position in the emperor's heart is always lower than that of the queen."
Dongmei interjected: "Master, in fact, there is no need for you to remind Wei Jingxuan just now. As long as she is punished by the emperor, she is not a good person. If she dies like this, we will save our energy."
"Do you think I don't want to?" Concubine Yu stared at the courtyard where Wei Jingxuan's figure had long disappeared, and said in a serious voice: "A dog in a hurry would jump over the wall, let alone Wei Jingxuan; or do you think she would be merciful and not throw me into the trap?"
The palace confession comes out?" Seeing that Dongmei didn't speak, she added: "Remember, this kind of villain must not offend her openly and want her to die. There are many ways to calm down and wait until this matter is over.
Say it again."
A storm is slowly approaching. Whether it will disappear or turn into a storm is still unknown; if it turns into a storm, it will definitely be the most intense one since Hongli ascended the throne...
The next morning, Hongli woke up from a hangover with a splitting headache. He couldn't help but let out a small groan. The next moment, a pair of delicate hands touched his forehead and rubbed it gently on both sides.
Next, the pain gradually disappeared.
When Hongli was so comfortable that he almost fell asleep again, a soft voice came from his ear, "Does the Emperor still feel pain?"
Hearing this voice, Hongli opened his eyes in surprise, stared at the face reflected in his eyes and said, "Xianyue? Why are you here?"
Xianyue smiled silently and said: "I came to see the emperor yesterday. It turned out that the emperor was very drunk, talked nonsense and vomited all over the floor. I was worried about the emperor, so I stayed for a while." As she spoke, she kept her hands on her.
Never stopped.
Hongli glanced at the sky outside and said in surprise: "So, you stayed here all night?" After Xianyue nodded, he pulled down his hands that had been rubbing his temples and said with pity: "I
It’s not like there’s no one waiting here. If you’re worried, just ask Sixi and the others to come in and watch over you. Why stay up all night? Look, he’s totally exhausted.”
