Chapter 388: The Battle of the Harem
It backfired, when Xie Ronghua came to the Palace of Worries every day for ten days in a row, Gu Hengxue stood guard for him night and night, she felt that she was about to collapse, where is the life of the favorite concubine, it is clearly not as good as those palace maids and eunuchs, they can sleep peacefully for a while, she can't sleep peacefully every night, not to mention, she has to accept the flying knives in the eyes of the palace concubines and their grievances in the open and secret during the day, her face is getting worse and worse, and the faces of those concubines are getting more and more ugly, Liu Jiangyue also "kindly" sent her a lot of supplements, hinted that she was not in good health, so she didn't want to occupy the emperor every day, the conscience of heaven and earth, she wished that he would get out of here quickly, so that she could sleep peacefully, she didn't know how he could be in such good spirits, go out at night, and go to the court to deal with state affairs like no one during the day, but she really didn't want to live this kind of day when she could only sleep for one or two hours a night and had to get up and wait for him to change his clothes and go to court.

After finishing dinner with Xie Ronghua on this day, she finally couldn't help but open her mouth to resist him.
"Your Majesty, these days the concubine went to Zhaoyang Palace to ask for peace, and the concubine Niangniang saw that the concubine was not in good spirits and was sleepy and weak, so she gave the concubine a lot of nourishing things." Gu Hengxue glanced at Xie Ronghua and whispered to him.
"Since she is so considerate of you, then you can just accept it, and you don't have to tell me about these things." Xie Ronghua didn't raise his head and said.
…………
After the palace maids and eunuchs who were waiting for them left, and only the two of them were left in the palace, she stopped beating around the bush with him, and stopped Xie Ronghua before he went to change clothes: "Your Majesty, these days, there are a lot of bad rumors in the palace!" ”
Xie Ronghua listened to her words, sat down at the table, looked at her and said with a smile: "Those rumors bother Gu Jieyu very much? ”
Gu Hengxue sat down beside him and said angrily to him: "Now the harem is rumored that the concubine used the eldest prince to go to Lishan to attract His Majesty's attention, and after returning to the palace, she used a fox trick on Your Majesty, so that Your Majesty only saw the concubine in his eyes." “
Xie Ronghua nodded, looked at her and smiled: "Isn't the first half of the sentence true?" As for the back, it is rare that they can see the foxy spirit from you. ”
I......
Gu Hengxue really wanted to scold him, she clenched her fists, and said to herself in her heart while inhaling: "You can't be angry, you can't be angry, you can't be angry, anger hurts your body!" “
Xie Ronghua saw that she dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak, the smile in his eyes flashed, he stood up and said condescendingly to her: "If Gu Jieyu is fine, I am gone!" ”
"No way!" Gu Hengxue stopped him and said to him: "Your Majesty, today is the tenth day, there are so many concubines in the harem, Your Majesty should follow the rules to get the rain and dew evenly, and you should not spoil the harem alone, the harem concubines are all married into the palace at a flower-like age, Your Majesty can't bear to let them stay young and widowed, so look forward to Your Majesty every day?" ”
"Gu Jieyu understands the righteousness very well, seeing you like this, these words have been held in your heart for a long time, do you want to drive me away like this?" Xie Ronghua said with a smile.
Gu Hengxue pursed her lips, and replied yes and no, no, she looked at Xie Ronghua and said dissatisfiedly: "Anyway, Your Majesty will give you an accurate word today, how long will you live here?" The concubines also have a good preparation, and now the concubines of the harem are increasingly dissatisfied with the concubines, and every time they go to the concubine to say goodbye, it is more uncomfortable than going to the grave! ”
Xie Ronghua listened to her analogy, laughed, and said, "If Concubine Liu knows that you go to the grave every time to greet her, I don't know how she will feel in her heart?" ”
Gu Hengxue glared at him and muttered, "Speaking of which, the culprits are not all Your Majesty!" ”
Xie Ronghua stopped laughing and said to her seriously: "You take care of tonight, and after tonight, I will let you sleep well!" “
"Really?" Gu Hengxue's eyes lit up, and before he could answer, she had already asked and answered herself: "Your Majesty is the emperor, and the emperor's words are the holy decree, and the concubines of this holy decree have received it tonight, and Your Majesty can't take it back." ”
Xie Ronghua smiled helplessly and said to her: "Keep watch tonight, don't fall asleep before I come back." ”
Gu Hengxue rolled her eyes and nodded reluctantly.
These days, there was nothing wrong at first, but in the next few days, occasionally the palace maids and eunuchs from other palaces would come to report that their mothers were not feeling well at night, and begged to summon the imperial doctor.
Gu Hengxue knew that the request was false, and it was true that she wanted His Majesty to see their master, but every time she was blocked back, she asked Shang Jing to pass on the word to lead the imperial doctor into the palace, and those palace maids and eunuchs couldn't see Your Majesty, and complained to her in their hearts, so they could only give up.
It's just that Gu Hengxue didn't expect that it would be someone from Concubine Du Xian's palace who came to perform this tonight, and when someone came to report to Ke Yi of Yuming Palace to ask to see her, Gu Hengxue's heart tightened, knowing that this time it was not so easy to dismiss.
She thought about it, pinched out a little red mark on her collarbone and neck, exposed it generously, and pricked herself a few more stitches, so that her face had a bit of lazy charm, changed her clothes, put the bed into a human shape and tidied up the pillow with Xie Ronghua's bedclothes, and made sure that there was no flaw in the hanging drapery, and then got up and opened the door and walked out of the dormitory.
"Your Majesty just fell asleep, Zi Yan, you are staying here, and no one is allowed to disturb Your Majesty's rest, you know?" After Gu Hengxue closed the door, she said to Zi Yan outside the door in a deep voice.
Zi Yan glanced at the marks on her neck, her face turned slightly red, and she said in a low voice, "The slave knows." ”
When Gu Hengxue walked to the front hall, Ke Yi was already waiting in the center of the hall, and when she saw her, she reluctantly saluted: "The slave has seen Gu Jieyu!" “
"It's so late, you are not waiting by Concubine Xian's side, why did you come to the Forget the Palace?" Gu Hengxue sat down on the first seat and asked her with a light smile.
Huge candles were lit around the hall, and the little marks on Gu Hengxue's neck and collarbone were particularly ambiguous under the light of the candlelight, Ke Yi looked at the traces she was exposed to, and scolded shamelessly in her heart, but said quietly on her face: "The slave maid is here to ask to see Your Majesty in the Palace of Forgetting Worries, and tonight my mother's stomach is uncomfortable after resting not long after, and she vomited all the things she ate for dinner." ”
"Oh, are you also here to ask for a decree?" Gu Hengxue asked.
Ke Yi smiled contemptuously and said, "Gu Jieyu has forgotten that my mother's mother is a virtuous concubine of Zhengyipin, and she does not need His Majesty's holy decree to summon the imperial doctor into the palace for consultation." ”
Gu Hengxue suddenly realized, and said with a smile: "I forgot this, since you don't need a holy decree, what are you doing in the Forgotten Worry Palace?" ”
Ke Yi looked at her pretending to be puzzled, and said angrily: "Did Gu Jieyu ask knowingly?" My mother hasn't seen Your Majesty for a few days, and she is feeling unwell now, so naturally I hope Your Majesty can go and see her! ”
Gu Hengxue thought for a while and whispered, "But Your Majesty just fell asleep not long ago, wouldn't it be good to wake him up because of this trivial matter?" ”
Ke Yi said angrily: "Concubine Xian is sick, is that a trivial matter?" His Majesty has always loved Concubine Xian, if he knows that Concubine Xian Niangniang is sick, he will definitely have trouble sleeping and eating, and the slave and maid will not tell you, and the slave and maid will see Your Majesty! “
As she spoke, she was about to walk to the dormitory in the back, Gu Hengxue asked Qingfeng Mingyue to step forward and hold her, and said in a deep voice: "This palace said, Your Majesty has already fallen asleep, you go back first, and when Your Majesty wakes up, this palace will tell him about it." ”
