Chapter 1407
Erph's legs, which had been raised, fell back into place.
Because she was frightened by the battle in front of her, and at the same time, Er Rou's words of sowing discord also exploded in her heart in due course, lingering in her heart like a single loop, making her can't help but have some bad guesses, especially when she noticed Concubine De Niangniang on the throne under the corridor with an unswerving face and Xue Luan kneeling in the courtyard.
All kinds of things in front of him made Erfu a little afraid to step into the shadow wall that crossed the palace gate and appeared in front of everyone.
It's just that no matter how afraid and timid she is, she has already come here, she can't pull her legs and leave, she looked up at the somewhat gloomy sky, took a few deep breaths of cold air, and barely put on a gentle and humble smile, and then walked towards Concubine De without squinting.
Concubine De sat on the throne with an ugly face......
Seeing this, Erfu panicked in her heart, but her face still obeyed the rules to greet her, and when she heard Concubine De Niangniang call softly, she didn't feel relaxed, because she was keenly aware of the slight displeasure in Concubine De's tone, which also made her heart even more panicked, she resisted the urge to ask questions on the spot, and came to Concubine De's side in three steps and two steps.
But before she could open her mouth to post, Concubine De Niangniang had already handed her a very vague hint.
- Shut up.
Erfu didn't know what was going on, but she didn't dare to bump into her eyebrows and ask questions, so she had to retreat to Su Yao's side with a wry smile, and secretly make some small moves with Su Yao, she believed that even if Concubine De was unhappy in her heart, she would not let herself just poke at the side in a fog to watch the play.
The facts did not disappoint her.
Don't look at Su Yao's still righteous and unapproachable appearance, and even the expression on his face has not changed in the slightest, but his lips moved lightly to give the answer that Erfu is most eager to know in his heart: "There is a eunuch from the Qianqing Palace to invite, the prince is worried about the important affairs of the court, and he has already returned to the Qianqing Palace first, Fujin doesn't have to worry." ”
"What the hell is going on?" said Erf, and hurriedly continued to ask.
"A little thing, Fu Jin doesn't have to take it to heart, Niang Niang will explain it to you in detail later. ”
Although Su Yao's answer was very vague, from Su Yao's incomprehensible answer, Erfu still heard a little taste, that is, the chaos in front of her was related to the fourth master, but it didn't have much to do with it, and it wouldn't involve her as the head of the fourth blessing, so she didn't need to worry too much, just watch the play quietly.
With this inaccurate answer, she was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief.
Erfu was finally in the mood to pay attention to the movement in the courtyard, she smiled at Su Yao to show her gratitude, turned her head and fell her attention on Xue Luan, who was lying on the bench in the courtyard, she was sure that this was a strange palace maid she had never seen before, this completely strange palace maid could make such a big move in Yonghe Palace, and also angered the gentle and gentle Concubine De Niangniang, then she should be the palace maid Xue Luan who was privately taught by the fourth master mentioned by Er Rou......
Thinking of this, she looked at Xue Luan's gaze, a little more cold and disgusted.
Since Erfu returned to Yonghe Palace, Concubine De, who seemed to be sitting on the throne casually, had been paying attention to her every move, and when her gaze at Xueluan changed, Concubine De Niangniang finally sat up straight.
The women in this house have a common problem - suspiciousness.
Because she judged by the time when Erfu returned to Yonghe Palace, and confirmed that there was something wrong in her Yonghe Palace, Erfu hurried back from Qixiang Palace.
The question then becomes: how did Erf manage to be so influential?
Although Concubine De has not deliberately blocked the news since Xueluan and the fourth master had a very close affair until now, she has been operating in Yonghe Palace for half her life, and she is not a joke, and the palace maids and miscellaneous servants up and down the palace have been gathered in the courtyard, even if someone has the heart to spread the news, there is no suitable opportunity.
In this way, when Erfu came back from outside the Yonghe Palace, his face was obviously a little wrong, and he did not change until he noticed the palace maids and servants arranged in the courtyard, obviously Erfu heard the news outside.
Although the palace is a place with no secrets, the speed of various news is not as fast as imagined......
Narf was able to learn about her movements in the Yonghe Palace so quickly, and there were three possibilities.
1. Erfu has placed eyeliner in Yonghe Palace, and has a very convenient contact with Erfu.
This is the most taboo and disgusting possibility of Concubine De, she has lived in the palace for most of her life, never forgetting the word cautious, and never forgetting to put on a gentle and virtuous mask, but only when she is alone in Yonghe Palace is an exception, because Yonghe Palace is her home, and when she returns home, she should enjoy life in a relaxed and relaxed manner.
Although this home is not unbreakable, it cannot be allowed to act recklessly.
However, in comparison, Yonghe Palace is a warm harbor where Concubine De can relax a little, she can't allow anyone to put eyeliner in the only place where she can relax for a moment, except for the current Holy Emperor Kangxi, because this huge Forbidden City is the emperor, and all the palace maids and servants in this palace are the emperor's minions, she can prevent anyone, but she can't prevent the emperor.
It's just that this exception is only the emperor, and Erfu's daughter-in-law is definitely not among them.
If Erfu really dared to insert eyeliner into her Yonghe Palace, Concubine De would never be polite to Erfu, and how ruthless she was to cut off Erfu's ears and eyes would definitely teach Erfu a big lesson.
Second, in Xueluan's attempt to seduce the fourth child, I am afraid that there are traces of other palace concubines meddling.
Because Concubine De Niangniang confirmed that these palace maids and maids who served in the palace were innocent people, and there was no other master's command behind them, as one of the four concubines of the six palaces in the palace, Concubine De Niangniang was very confident in this regard, so Erfu was able to get the news so quickly, which can only show that there were other palace concubines who instructed Xueluan to act like this, and it was precisely because there were people behind Xueluan that the news could reach Erfu's ears without going through the palace maids of Yonghe Palace.
Who is behind Xueluan?
Concubine De has two suspects in her heart: the Yi Concubine in Yikun Palace, Yi Fei is also her old rival, since she was a nobleman, she and Yi Fei have been secretly competing, plus both of them are palace concubines with adult elder brothers, there are more places where they look at each other;
The other is Concubine Tong Jia, who seems to have no quarrel with the world.
Concubine Tong Jia and Empress Tong Jia are half-sisters, but the fates of the two of them are very different.
Empress Tong Jia was the first concubine, and led the six palaces of the east and west for nearly ten years with the respect of the concubine, during which she was canonized as the imperial concubine and became the most noble woman in the palace.
And Concubine Tong Jia is not as happy as Queen Tong Jia in the palace.
In her early years, she held the title of concubine, had no children and no daughters under her knees, and stayed up until she was in her thirties, until the three queens in front of her died, and until Concubine Wen passed away, she finally got the title of concubine and became the most noble woman in the palace, but she was not valued by Emperor Kangxi, she was promoted to concubine, but she also had an empty title.
And now Emperor Kangxi is getting older and older, gradually showing a state of aging, the Tong family's power in the court is also not as good as before, Concubine Tong Jia wants to keep her dignity in the Kangxi Dynasty, she always has to make some arrangements for herself, and now the status of the fourth child in the eyes of Emperor Kangxi is getting higher and higher, far more hope of succession than other princes, it is difficult to guarantee that she Tong Jia Guifei will not have the intention of inheriting the fourth child to her own name.
After all, Concubine Tong Jia and Queen Tong Jia are half-sisters, and Queen Tong Jia has taken care of the elderly for more than four years......
Although Concubine De couldn't understand what Concubine Tong Jia had arranged for her, it couldn't reduce her suspicion of Concubine Tong Jia, because she had been in the palace for so many years, she didn't think that Concubine Tong Jia was a person without ambition, otherwise it would be very easy to marry into what kind of family she would marry to be the wife of the sect with her identity and family background, so why would she run to the muddy waters of the Forbidden City to roll around!
Third, Concubine De also wondered if this matter was Erfu's means.
As Erfu gets older and older, as the population in the old fourth mansion increases, it is difficult to guarantee that Erfu, who has a simple personality, will not have other thoughts, look at Xueluan's face that has a bit of the shadow of Queen Tong Jia, and then look at Xueluan's background, there is no more suitable candidate for Erfu's pet than Xueluan, and Erfu left and returned to Yonghe Palace so coincidentally, Concubine De Niangniang is even more suspicious of this.
Thinking of this, Concubine De couldn't hold her breath.
She winked at Yu Changzai, beckoned to Su Yao and Erfu, and got up and returned to the main hall.
However, her suspicion of Erfu did not last long, because as soon as Erfu entered the palace gate, she couldn't wait to ask: "Niangniang, what is going on, the concubine heard from the concubine Niangniang that something happened in your palace, and her heart was about to jump out of her throat?"
Concubine De raised her eyebrows slightly, and looked at Erfu carefully, convinced that Erfu was half-aware of this matter.
Because of Erfu's impatient appearance, the worry that flashed frequently in her eyes, and the hint of complaint that came out of her words, it was obviously not something that a rough person like Erfu could disguise, but Erfu's question also made Concubine De Niangniang hear that something was wrong, and she remembered a candidate who was ignored by herself-and Concubine Guerjia.
Compared with these concubines and concubines who are still alive in the palace, the promotion path of the concubines is also very smooth.
And the concubine Guerjia Errou entered the palace at the age of seventeen, the first seal is the concubine, and it is a special purpose to enter the palace, not a show girl who participated in the draft to enter the palace, she is twenty-nine years younger than Emperor Kangxi, but she can be called into the palace by Emperor Kangxi's special order, and within two years of entering the palace, she was promoted to concubine again, which shows her special place in Emperor Kangxi's mind......
Concubine De sat on the kang, quietly combing through the various doubts in her heart, and quietly recalling everything about the concubine, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that the concubine was suspicious in this matter.
Because Erf left too coincidentally.
Because Erf came back by coincidence.
If these two points alone don't make Concubine De suspicious of Concubine Niangniang, but Erfu still got the news from Concubine He, and since Concubine He was demoted to a concubine, she has rarely stepped out of the palace gate, if she didn't insist on going to the Queen Mother to say goodbye, Concubine De Niangniang would have forgotten that there was such a young and beautiful high-ranking concubine in Qixiang Palace, so how did Concubine He do so well-informed......
Concubine De Niangniang sat quietly on the kang and thought about the front and back, but Erfu was anxious by Concubine De's silent appearance, she didn't care about any etiquette rules, and it was not the first time that she was unruly in front of Concubine De, so she hurriedly stepped forward to Concubine De's side, and urged repeatedly: "Niangniang, you are talking to the concubine, what is going on?"
In response to Erfu's questioning, Concubine De sighed helplessly, turned her head and raised her chin to Su Yao.
What she meant was to let Su Yao explain to her and Erfu how all this happened, she didn't have the heart to repeat what had happened with Erfu now, she had to think carefully to see what went wrong, if she didn't want to understand these details, she was afraid that she wouldn't even be able to sleep.
Su Yao received the signal from Concubine De, stepped to Erfu's side, and whispered a recount of what had happened before.
After listening to Erf, the little heart that mentioned the throat and eyes finally returned to its place.
"Niangniang, you deal with Xueluan like this, I'm afraid that you are a little soft-hearted, for this kind of bold palace maid, you should send it to Xinzhiku to do hard labor, so that they know how to write the word rules, and let her go to Changchun Garden to serve, isn't this a tiger returning to the mountain!"
When Concubine De heard this, she stretched out her hand and pointed at Erfu with an angry look, and finally sighed helplessly.
She can see it thoroughly, with Erf disturbing her next to her, saying some stupid things, she just wants to sort out the thousands of things in her heart, and maybe she will be disturbed by Erfu's nonsense, and the wrong person who plots against the fourth child, it is better to take this opportunity to ring the alarm bell for Erf, so as not to be exploited by someone in the fourth mansion when the time comes, that is really troublesome.
Thinking of this, she pointed to the embroidered pier under her head, and commanded softly: "Don't be surprised, sit down and listen to the palace and you talk about it in detail......
Then, Concubine De said to Erfu about her worries and suspicions.
