In Jingren Palace, after a burst of crackling, the palace was already in a mess.
Concubine Xi's cheeks were red and swollen, and she fell on the couch. Her eyes were red and swollen from crying, and her resentment was beyond words: "What have I done wrong?! Concubine Dun is favored by the emperor, Concubine Yu is protected by the Empress Dowager, I am
But we can only let the Queen Mother bully and humiliate her!!"
Gui Fu, the confidant of the palace, hurriedly stepped forward, knelt down behind Concubine Xi, and carefully placed a wet veil wrapped in ice cubes on Concubine Xi's cheek, "My Lady, please bear with me a little longer, the Queen Mother cannot stay sick forever.
"
Concubine Xi gritted her teeth and said bitterly, "That old pious woman has been pretending to be sick for so long and has tortured me to this day! She doesn't want to stop at all! The emperor doesn't care about my life and death, the empress dowager turns a deaf ear, even Concubine Yu... hum
"My sister and I usually scream affectionately, but yesterday we ran faster than anyone else!"
Guifu thought to himself, in that situation, if you had the chance to escape, would you stay and suffer?
"Why don't you, Madam, be ill for a few days? It's not like the Emperor doesn't know your grievances and won't expose you." Lan Xun on the side couldn't help but put forward his own suggestion.
Guifu frowned. The empress has neither divine grace nor protection, let alone the status of the middle palace. How can she pretend to be sick and escape?
Guifu whispered: "Empress, Concubine Dun is pretending to be sick, and the Queen Mother is already annoyed enough." - If you pretend to be sick, it will give the Queen Mother a chance to have an attack. After all, the Queen Mother has no one to protect her.
How could Concubine Xi not know that she couldn't hide at all? She couldn't help but feel bitter and angry in her heart, "I come from a wealthy Manchu family, but I am not as good as the concubines of Han Junqi and Baoyi Banner!!"
Concubine Xi felt bitter and bitter, and tears rolled down her face, "When will this kind of day end!"
In the past, she was able to deal with the power of the direct descendant Fujin and the suppression of the empress in the middle palace. But now... she is tortured by Empress Dowager Wuya to the point where she has no room to fight back!
"This can't go on like this. I can't sit still and wait for death!" The emperor is so fond of the new and dislikes the old. He is afraid that the queen mother will torture her to death, and the emperor may not even blink!
Concubine Xi looked at the dim inner bedroom, gritted her teeth, stood up and rushed in quickly.
The night is as cold as water.
In the bedroom of Yikun Palace, Concubine Dun was leaning in Yongzheng's arms, acting coquettishly and coquettishly, "Your Majesty, I feel so uncomfortable in my heart."
Even though he knew that Nian was pretending to be ill again, Yinzhen was helpless, but he also felt somewhat useful, "Didn't I come to accompany you? You too, don't go out if you are not feeling well."
Nian pouted and said sweetly: "But I am really bored. I just took the second princess out for a walk. I didn't expect that the Queen Mother actually called people to arrest me. I was really frightened."
Yes, Your Majesty, you have to make the decision for me!"
Yinzhen patted his concubine's delicate shoulder lightly, "Okay, okay, you are the one who causes the most trouble."
Nian said with dissatisfaction and arrogance: "How can I cause trouble? I have never offended the Queen Mother, but the Queen Mother always bullies me..." As he said this, Nian's eyes turned red and he whimpered aggrievedly.
Get up, "It's not because the emperor loves me so much, but the queen mother doesn't like me."
To put it bluntly, the Queen Mother is displeased with the Emperor. Nian is clearly using eye drops.
Yinzhen couldn't help but fell silent. He naturally understood that it was the Queen Mother's fault.
"Your Majesty~" Nian's voice became softer and more charming, "When will the Queen Mother's illness be cured? I can't stand being bored in the palace all day long!"
After saying that, Nian looked at Yong Zheng and rubbed his arms twice, "I really miss the emperor."
"Ahem!" Yinzhen couldn't help coughing twice.
Nian smiled charmingly and said, "Your Majesty, I am very flustered. Tonight...can you stay and accompany me?"
If you can still hold back under such a delicate attack, it must be that you are not a man.
Just as his clothes were half-undressed, eunuch Zhang Lin rushed in angrily: "Your Majesty, it's not good! Fourth brother suddenly has a high fever!!"
Yinzhen was originally very angry at being disturbed, but when he heard this, he couldn't help but frown. Hongli had a fever? What a coincidence?
Concubine Dun, whose clothes were disheveled, was so angry that her nose was crooked. What a concubine Xi! She actually competed for favor in the middle of the night! I have underestimated this old woman!
Yinzhen frowned: "If you have a fever, go to the imperial doctor. I don't know how to treat illnesses."
Zhang Lin shrank his neck and quickly said "yes".
Concubine Dun was overjoyed and hurriedly wrapped her around. She blew hot breath into the emperor's ear softly and charmingly, "Your Majesty, the imperial doctor is taking care of him. Fourth brother will be fine. Let's go to bed early."
Yinzhen had woken up at this moment, and he knew that it was inappropriate to stay in Yikun Palace. The rules for sleeping in the palace were set by him, and he would not break the rules for no reason. Besides, Nian was still "sick"
.
Yinzhen gently pushed Concubine Dun away and said sternly: "There are still some things to approve in Yangxin Hall, so you can go to bed early."
Hearing this, Concubine Dun's eyes widened in disbelief.
Until she saw the emperor leaving without looking back, Concubine Dun was completely furious and slammed the enamel vase on the bedside, "Concubine Xi! I and you are at odds with each other!"
It was about to happen, but Concubine Xi interfered with it. Concubine Dun was so angry that her face turned red.
Although Yinzhen left behind the charming Nian family, he did not go to Jingren Palace. He indeed went back to Yangxin Palace to review the mistakes. No matter how much he hated Hongli, he was still his biological son after all. At this time, he was really gone.
That feeling.
At Chengqian Palace, Shu Jin went to bed early, so he didn't know what a wonderful event had happened last night until he woke up at dawn.
Brother Yuanshou suddenly had a high fever?
Was anyone in Yikun Palace last night during the Yongzheng Dog Day?
And then went back to the Yangxin Palace?
What a big melon!
Zhang Shoufa said: "The emperor did not summon the concubines last night, nor did he go to Jingren Palace. However, I heard that Brother Yuanshou is fine. May I go to Jingren Palace to have a look?"
Shu Jin slowly came back to his senses, "It's time to go and take a look."
Lan Ruo came closer and whispered: "Madam, brother Yuanshou's fever comes on suddenly."
How could Shu Jin not know? It was at the time when Concubine Xi was being tortured the most by the Queen Mother that Yuanshou's illness gave her a good reason not to go to Ningshou Palace to take care of her illness.
Hey, wait!!
Shu Jin's eyes widened, "If this happens, the Queen Mother may summon Mao Bin and Mi Bin to attend to the illness!"
The queen and the three concubines can't serve, so it's just these two concubines!
Zhang Shoufa hurriedly said: "At this moment, Ningshou Palace has not sent any orders."
Shu Jin sighed, the Empress Dowager Wu Ya had troubled most of the harem, would she let Mao Bin and Mi Bin go?
"Anyway, let's go and notify them so that they can be prepared." Shu Jin was really at a loss for a while, he just hoped that Queen Mother Wuya wouldn't notice them so quickly.
After asking the nanny to send Tianshen to Shoukang Palace (fortunately, Concubine Xuan was there to help take care of the child), Shu Jin slipped away to Jingren Palace to visit the patient.
