"It seems that Sister Yingbin is not planning to give me any face."
Concubine Ying, who was kneeling down, couldn't help but swallow her saliva. Facing the pressure from the imperial concubine, she was somewhat afraid.
But no matter how scared I was, I had to refuse, so I tightened my hand on the handkerchief and continued speaking bravely.
"Your Majesty has misunderstood me. How dare I disrespect you? It's really my incompetence. I'm afraid that if I do something wrong it will affect my reputation. That's my fault."
Not good enough?
It's a shame she dared to use this as an excuse.
Her father was the Minister of Etiquette, and he had been exposed to these rules since he was a child. How could he even avoid holding a banquet like this?
There must be a reason behind it.
Thinking of this, Concubine Lin changed her aggressive attitude and continued speaking in a gentle tone.
"I am just joking with my sister. Since my sister cannot handle this banquet, then..."
Lin Wanyi felt that this matter must be no small matter.
She is quite leisurely and relaxed, but looking at herself, her future is really uncertain.
Mentioning the two princes fiercely, Lin Wanyi became more and more frightened.
No wonder Concubine Lin had such a reaction.
For her, it was less of a threat, but in the face of such "favor", what did Concubine Lin want to get from her?
"Don't worry, I will be careful. I will never embarrass you."
Du Changzai was naturally overjoyed. Sure enough, his original choice to cling to Concubine Lin was the right one.
Because of what happened just now, Lin Wanyi took another look at her and saw that although she agreed happily, her face was not as excited as Du Changzai.
"The second prince was born to Concubine Su. When he was born, it took three days of dystocia to give birth. Not only was the child born with deficiencies, she also suffered a massive haemorrhage and died. The child became Concubine Lan's adopted son."
I don’t know why such a person would help me just now.
"Now that things have happened, I won't talk to you anymore. I injured my body when I gave birth to Mingruo, so I haven't gotten pregnant again after so many years of recuperation. So I must have guessed the reason why you entered the palace.
separated."
Mu Lanchun thought that Concubine Lin was deliberately doing this to her.
This is something that has never happened before in all dynasties.
Mu whispered a few words to her before agreeing to leave.
This tone was no longer a discussion, but a direct order.
All they can do is wait for Concubine Lin to reveal her trump card. Whether she can catch it or not is up to Lin Wanyi.
"On the other hand, the third prince born to Concubine Yi is not only strong and healthy, but also talented. Everyone in the palace thinks that he is very capable."
Regarding the Dragon Boat Festival, Concubine Lin explained a few more words.
Lin Wanyi listened quietly. These matters were not something she could interject at will. Moreover, since Concubine Lin did not clearly indicate what she wanted to say, it was better not to make wild guesses.
Lin Wanyi was very worried about this.
Lin Wanyi was left behind on the pretext of reading family letters.
Advance to another level!
It's okay for Concubine Ying to be a concubine, but if Concubine Lan is promoted to another level, is it possible that there will be two noble concubines in this palace?
"There are two pregnant concubines in the palace all of a sudden, and their status is not low. If they successfully give birth to Lin'er, I'm afraid they will have to move up a level."
"Now there are two more pregnant women. If they are both princes, they are the fourth prince and the fifth prince. The palace is much more lively."
After seeing Lin Wanyi's doubts, Concubine Lin explained.
What Mu Lanchunpo can understand, others will naturally understand too.
As expected, Concubine Lin opened her mouth and Lin Wanyi was shocked.
"Let it be decided by Ye Guiren and Du Changzai. You two are both old men who have served His Majesty for many years and are familiar with many rules, especially Ye Guiren. I remember that before you served His Majesty, you were the inner court.
The people in the department must have hosted more banquets, so they must be decent and considerate, you know?"
"Then what the empress means is..."
His eyes scanned the other concubines below, some were eager to try, some were deliberately avoiding it, and of course there were also some who looked curious.
"The eldest prince was born to Empress Xu. He was the eldest son for whom Your Majesty had high hopes. Unfortunately, he died of illness when he was about four years old. The empress also fell into despair and passed away a year later."
But the words in his mouth did not stop.
As he spoke, he seemed to be thinking about something, and his eyes became distant.
After everyone left, Qin He ordered all the palace people to wait outside, leaving only Concubine Lin and Lin Wanyi in the palace.
As soon as she said this, Ye Guiren had no choice but to kneel down and thank her.
"Until the time comes, it's hard to say whether the child can stay. Even if he is born, he may not be able to raise him in the palace. The eldest prince and the second prince are examples."
"Concubine Ying is pregnant for four months, but no one in the harem knows."
Be prepared to deal with Concubine Lin with all your energy.
When Lin Wanyi mentioned the words "proficient", she could clearly feel Concubine Lin gnashing her teeth.
"It took her so long to get pregnant, so she naturally needs to be more cautious. She must be pregnant now and is just waiting for the right time to say it."
No matter how you look at it, it looks like you are being invited into a trap.
After all, Chu Guiren, who had just offended her with his rude words, had been grounded in disguise, and Ye Guiren, who had helped her, also hosted the banquet. This was a hard-working and flattering thing.
In the past, he used his brother's future as bait, and later he used his brother's future to boost his own gains.
She could see through it, but she couldn't turn it back.
Sure enough, it was a bit pale.
Concubine Lin went straight in without any cover-up.
While she was thinking about this, Mu Yingxing looked at her and gave a secret thumbs up. Lin Wanyi immediately understood that she had made a mistake.
It seemed that the third prince was already a thorn in her side.
If it weren't for Concubine Yi's close watch, I'm afraid that many people in the harem would have attacked this healthy third prince.
"Sister, come on, I'm going to watch Chunqi make green plum cakes first."
This performance was to let everyone know that Lin Wanyi could not be offended easily.
If she could get the emperor's attention again through this matter, she would be able to live a more comfortable life in the harem.
Concubine Lin said while looking at Lin Wanyi's face.
The corners of his mouth couldn't help but make a mockery, after all, he had just entered the palace, and he couldn't stand this.
I think he is also a person who can hide his thoughts.
So he stood up and thanked Concubine Lin sincerely.
Why is it that the concubine is not reported to be pregnant?
Hiding her clumsiness will make her life more comfortable.
After a while, Concubine Lin recovered from her thoughts. When she looked at Lin Wanyi again, she was more inquisitive.
"Although you entered the palace late, I think you are doing well. However, it is better to avoid the situation like yesterday where you only accompanied the driver but did not sleep with you."
When this matter was suddenly pointed out, Lin Wanyi pursed her lips tightly, feeling embarrassed.
