Chapter Twenty-Six: Something Goes Wrong, but It's Still Very Tender
Early the next morning, Qin Yuan woke up and found that Qing Cang was no longer there, looked at the warm sun outside the window, and realized that the hour was not early, because she was sick, so Qin Yuan did not plan to go out, so she just simply freshened up, Aunt Lan was promoted to the chef, so after serving Qin Yuan's dressing, she went to the Shang Food Bureau, the chef was in charge of the harem concubines' meals, not only had two meals and two meals, but also twenty palace maids, that is, now Aunt Lan is in charge of twenty-two palace people, and she can be regarded as a female official with thin palms in the palace, It seems that Aunt Lan has been busy with the affairs of the Shangshi Bureau these days.
After breakfast, I sat on the soft floor and read a book to pass the time, and when I arrived, I only listened to the eunuch outside the door preaching, "Yi Guifei marries to ......"
As soon as Qin Yuan heard this, she hurriedly put down the book and got up to greet her, Yi Guifei entered the hall leisurely, Qin Yuan pre-armrested and saluted, and Yi Guifei hurriedly stepped forward to support her and said, "I have already said it, you and my sisters don't have to be so polite." ”
Qin Yuan straightened up and said with a smile, "Sister, sit down." ”
The two of them sat down together, and Qin Yuan said with a smile, "Sister, but I just came to the queen province?" Yi Guifei smiled and nodded, "The province is gone, I'll come over and take a look, how about it?" Do you feel better? ”
"Well, it's much better, I guess it won't be a few days away. By the way, yesterday my sister hurriedly went to see Princess Wanxi, how is the princess? ”
Concubine Yi smiled lightly and said, "It's not a big deal, the imperial doctor said that it was because the temperature in the house was too high, and the princess was too young to cry when she couldn't stand the heat." ”
"It must be the aunts of the princess's palace, who are afraid that Princess Wanxi will be cold, so they make it warmer."
Concubine Yi said with a hint of displeasure, "Cut, the aunt who serves the princess on weekdays is sick, and the Internal Affairs Office actually sent a novice, who has no experience at all, so I am angry and drove the aunt out of the palace, and when it gets warmer in a few days, the palace will definitely take the princess back to the palace." Qin Yuan knew what Concubine Yi's personality was, so she smiled casually, "Look at my sister's anger, my sister's daughter must be a cute baby, and when my sister recovers, my sister must go to see the princess." ”
"Okay, is your personal maid a female official?"
Qin Yuan wrote lightly, "It's just a five-grade meal, and I just take care of some meals on weekdays." ", Yi Guifei disagreed, and analyzed slowly, "Sister, don't underestimate the twenty-four directors of the six bureaus in the palace, that is in charge of the affairs of the palace masters and concubines, and in the future, there is a chance to be promoted to the second rank of the master, you look at the current six bureaus in the palace, only a dozen are the people under the concubines in the palace at the moment, and the rest can be dominated by the old man, and the other nobles and concubines are staring closely. ”
Qin Yuan smiled in agreement, picked up the teacup and took a sip, "It's not that I don't care, everything has pros and cons, although it is a good thing for Aunt Lan to be in charge, but last night Xianggui Concubine entered the cold palace because of her sister, and it is inevitable that there will be some gossip in the palace, and my sister has been jealous since she entered the palace." ”
Concubine Yi didn't care after hearing this, and hurriedly said, "It is precisely because others are jealous that you can prove your excellence, if you want to dispel this situation, the only way to solve it is to become extremely powerful, others are afraid of you, how dare you be jealous of you?" By the way, what happened to Concubine Xiang entering the cold palace yesterday? There was already a lot of rumors in the palace. ”
After hearing this, Qin Yuan turned solemn and said, "Sister doesn't know, yesterday as soon as you left on the front foot, Zhang Dehai reported that someone sneaked into my dormitory at night, and then after investigation, in the drawer under my bed, I found the magic of witchcraft, and the voodoo doll was written with the name and birth date of Xiang Guifei. ”
Concubine Yi's face was shocked, "Witchcraft is a big taboo in the palace, if it is discovered, you will be killed, and Concubine Xiang will kill you!" ”
Qin Yuan nodded heavily and continued, "My sister just found out that not long after, Concubine Xiang and Concubine Shu came over, and under the pretext of visiting me, they predetermined that the voodoo doll had framed me, but fortunately, I had already thrown the voodoo doll into the brazier and burned it, and they just threw it into the air. ”
"In this way, Concubine Shu and Concubine Xiang have already colluded secretly."
"That's why my sister set up a plan in the turtle Ling paste sent by Concubine Xianggui, how can the person who thinks of me to death so much can he stay?"
Concubine Yi nodded approvingly, "Well done, now Concubine Shu will definitely notice something, pay attention to Concubine Shu these days." ”
"Well, but after last night's incident, I guess Concubine Shu also knows that I am not a person to bully, and I don't dare to act rashly recently."
Concubine Yi suddenly said angrily, "I think she is tired of being alive, and I think it would be great to have a prince in her hand who is not her own." ”
"Actually, I didn't want to fight back in such a hurry, but my sister went to visit the eldest sister yesterday afternoon, how can the eldest sister's current situation be described in a tragic word? Although I have never befriended the eldest sister, she is also a member of the Xue family after all, if I don't fight back, won't I let the gangsters underestimate our Xue family. ”
Concubine Yi was shocked again when she heard this, "What? Did you go to see Concubine Ru? Qin Yuan nodded slowly, and Concubine Yi suddenly said anxiously, "Sister, doesn't you know that Emperor Lu Dao has decreed that no one is allowed to enter Yuxiu Palace?" In broad daylight, what if someone detects it and spreads it to the emperor? ”
"Sister doesn't need to worry, my sister told the emperor last night, and the emperor didn't blame my sister."
After hearing this, Concubine Yi was not only not comfortable, but became even more anxious. "The emperor said that he would not pursue it, but it does not mean that he did not pursue it in his heart, the emperor has always been suspicious, if the concubine ended up today because of the auspicious concubine, it is inevitable that he will wonder if you did what happened last night. No way! This auspicious concubine can't be kept, we have to think of a way, can we find the person who put the voodoo doll in your drawer? ”
Seeing the anxious appearance of Concubine Yi, Qin Yuan suddenly became a little nervous, and nodded slightly, "It's a palace maid in my sister's palace, I tried turtle jelly for my sister last night, and I went on the spot, my original name was Cuixiang, in order to hide people's eyes, I entered Jinhua Palace, and I changed my name to Chun Tao." After hearing this, Concubine Yi relaxed slightly, "Let's take a good look at all the people in your palace these days." ”
Qin Yuan nodded obediently, "Sister, Concubine Xiang has now entered the cold palace, and she will never have a chance to enter the palace again in this life, so she won't be in such a hurry, right?" Yi Guifei seriously flashed a hint of fierceness, looking extremely sophisticated and mellow, "Who said there is no chance?" Concubine Li, who was the first emperor, was kicked out of the palace by the emperor for committing a crime, didn't she return to the palace after the worst death? After Concubine Li returned to the palace, she would get rid of all the people who had murdered her! Sister, you must remember that if others do to us, we can leave room for us, and if we do things to others, we must not leave any trouble. After speaking, he got up and walked out, but was stopped by Qin Yuan, "Why is my sister going?" ”
Concubine Yi turned her head and said seriously, "You can recuperate well in the palace, and you don't have to worry about the rest." After Yi Guifei finished speaking, she didn't wait for Qin Yuan to reply, and hurriedly walked out of the house.
Qin Yuan sat alone on the soft couch, her face showed a trace of anxiety, Zhang Dehai, who had been standing aside and did not dare to speak, said leisurely at this time, "Concubine Yi usually has a smile on her master, but today she is so stern in a hurry that the slaves are so frightened that they dare not move. ”
"Concubine Yi is just worried about this concubine, you also said that Concubine Yi is just in a hurry, but I don't know what Sister Yi will do." , Zhang Dehai comforted, "Concubine Yi has always been vigorous and resolute, and she has been in the palace for so many years, so she naturally knows what to do, and the master doesn't have to worry." ”
Qin Yuan's eyes were a little deep, and her tone was meaningful, "It seems that this concubine is still very tender." ”
