Chapter 560: Life and Death
Xu Meiren has been in the palace for four years, from the initial excitement, to loss, to fear, to confusion, to the current numbness, it can be said that she has experienced a period of time that ordinary girls never thought of, the ups and downs of women in the harem, life and death, she has seen a lot, and now she can calmly accept her current situation, rather than not knowing when she will die inexplicably, it is better to be forgotten by others. The reason why I asked to go to the queen this time is really helpless.
The queen mother slowly did everything one by one, and took two sips of freshly brewed tea, and then said slowly: "What's the matter? “
Xu Meiren hurriedly knelt down again, and begged: "The concubine dares to ask the queen mother to save her life!" She had tears in her eyes, but she didn't dare to shed it, she couldn't cry casually in this palace, especially in front of nobles who were higher than herself, so Xu Meiren could only endure it at this time.
"Oh?" the queen laughed when she heard this: "Xu Meiren is afraid that she is asking for the wrong person, this palace doesn't care about life and death, who the Lord of Yama lets die, who can hide!"
Xu Meiren knew that she was begging, she must have to pay something, otherwise why would the queen help her, and she kowtowed: "Only Niangniang can save the concubine, as long as the concubine has any needs, the concubine is willing to repay the concubine with everything?"
"What do you have?" do you think the palace needs?" said the queen smirked dismissively.
Xu Meiren didn't know how to reply for a while, she was not good at words, and she was also a soft person, so she was so anxious that tears were almost rolling out, so she could only keep kowtowing and kowtowing.
The queen felt that it was almost over, so she said helplessly: "Okay! Okay! This palace is soft-hearted, let's talk about the ugly words first, whether you can do this thing or not, I don't know if this palace is now, if you can't do it......."
"No matter whether it is done or not, the concubines will remember the kindness of the mother!" Xu Meiren hurriedly assured.
The queen smiled: "Say! What the hell is going on?"
Xu Meiren said slowly, her father didn't know how to offend a distant relative of Concubine Li, and then he was charged with a trumped-up crime, and now the whole family is locked in prison, life and death are unknown.
The actual concubine's mother's family was convicted, if the concubine did not participate, it would not be implicated, but the former dynasty and the harem are one, even if everyone does not know this news now, they will all know it in a few days, she is not afraid of being pointed at or ridiculed and insulted, but in the past few years, she has already seen through the high and low in the harem, and those who are tied to Concubine Li will definitely attack her, used to show favor to Concubine Li, she has no foundation in the harem at all, nor does she have any power of her own, I don't know how miserable the outcome will be in the future, she has seen those women who are struggling to survive in the cold palace, it is better to live than to die。
The queen naturally understands what Xu Meiren is afraid of, but when it comes to Concubine Li, she has to think about it, the third prince Zhou Yunkun is secretly the most powerful contender for the throne, he is just the right age, he has the ability, and the power of Concubine Li's mother's family is not small, although such a trivial matter cannot be offended, the easiest way is for her to make an adjustment from it, but only in this case, the queen is not satisfied, she is not interested in doing things all day long, how to maximize the benefits is what she wants.
The queen selfishly doesn't want the third prince to take the throne, she feels that she can't control that child, and her biological mother Concubine Li is here again, so it's hard to say whether she can sit firmly as the queen mother at that time.
