Concubine Duan smiled resentfully: "The emperor's mind has never been used on me, even if I am pregnant with the emperor's child, the emperor is only doing superficial work in front of the queen mother, in fact, he is still bent on favoring Yun Wei'er!" The sad and ridiculous thing is that I have become an outcast on both sides step by step, in the eyes of the queen mother, I have long lost my value, and in the emperor's heart, I have never been nothing! Willow Green, you say, am I ridiculous, very pathetic! ”

Liu Lu comforted Concubine Duan distressedly: "Don't say that, maybe Niangniang misunderstood the meaning of the Queen Mother and the Emperor." The emperor is merry by nature, and empathy is also a common thing. The queen mother is also quite concerned about the mother, but the relationship between the queen mother and the queen mother is more intimate, and now the queen is happy, and it is normal for the queen mother and the emperor to use their minds on the queen mother. Don't be suspicious. ”

Concubine Duan smiled bitterly, and said in a trance: "What kind of random suspicion, it is obvious that the queen mother and the emperor have already done everything!" I should have thought that there would be this step, but I was still naïve and fantasized that I would one day win the favor of the emperor and the queen mother. It wasn't until today that I completely realized that I had been being used all along, and I was ruthlessly abandoned, and it was too late to be sad and sad in my heart, where could I still see the emperor and the queen in front of me with affection and heartfelt complaints! ”

Concubine Duan said, closed her eyes in pain, and a tear slipped silently from the corner of her eye.

"!"

Liu Lu hurriedly took out a brocade to wipe away Concubine Duan's tears.

Liu Lu said softly: "Niangniang, why is this so difficult! ”

Concubine Duan was silent, and only after a long time did she reopen her eyes, and then turned her eyes and asked Liu Ludao: "Do you know, where is Yun Wei'er's mausoleum?" ”

Liu Lu's eyes widened, her pupils dilated, and she asked in surprise, "What is Niangniang asking for this?" ”

Concubine Duan smiled bitterly: "Just tell me, don't worry, I won't do anything too much to cause trouble." ”

Liu Lu pondered for a moment, and replied timidly: "Concubine Ying was beaten into the cold palace by the emperor at the beginning, and I heard that she died suddenly in the cold palace. It stands to reason that the emperor should not set up a tomb for Concubine Ying, even if the emperor still has a trace of affection for Concubine Ying, the slave maid thinks that the emperor will at most set up a tomb for Concubine Ying on the outskirts of the imperial city to mourn. ”

Concubine Duan frowned and said, "Clothed mound?!" ”

Liu Lu nodded and said, "Yes." It is rumored in the palace that Concubine Ying Niangniang suddenly got sick and died of a violent illness, and the body of Concubine Ying Niangniang has also been cremated, so at most she can only leave a well-dressed mound to mourn. ”

Concubine Duan was suspicious in her heart, and said to herself: "When you say this, I think that Concubine Ying, that little slut, was fine before, why did she die of a violent illness in vain as soon as she was beaten into the cold palace by the emperor for less than a month!" It's counterintuitive. It won't ......"

When Concubine Duan thought of something, she was frightened, and said in a panic: "Could it be that Concubine Ying was secretly executed, but she was declared to be violently ill and died, covering people's eyes!" ”

Liu Lu trembled with fright, and asked carefully: "Probably not, if the emperor executes Concubine Yingniang, to the people outside the palace, it can still be said that Concubine Ying died of a violent illness, but why should he hide it so much from the palace, after all, Concubine Yingniangniang has been beaten into the cold palace by the emperor, and she is guilty, and the emperor does not need to hide it from everyone in this matter." ”

Concubine Duan shook her head and said, "I'm afraid that it is not the emperor's intention to order the execution of Concubine Ying, but ......."

Concubine Duan suddenly stopped her mouth and swallowed the words she thought of into her stomach.

Liu Lu has followed Concubine Duan for the longest time, and has been in the palace for a while. Although I haven't personally encountered the unbearable methods in the harem, I have already heard of it. Liu Lu knew in her heart that Concubine Duan Niangniang must have thought of the mastermind behind the secret order to execute Concubine Ying. And in the entire harem, the only people who can execute the harem concubines with such power are the queen mother and the queen mother. Queen Helan Diemeng has a gentle and indifferent temperament, kind and demure, and has said good things for Concubine Yingyun to intercede many times, obviously the queen will not use such cruel means. Then, the only one who is possible to confront the emperor and dare to do it secretly before the emperor and quietly get rid of Concubine Yun Wei'er is the only one who is known for her iron-blooded wrists, He Lanyan, who is known for her iron wrists.

Thinking of this, Liu Lu couldn't help but look surprised.

Seeing the slightly pale look on Liu Lu's face, Concubine Duan knew that Liu Lu had already guessed the mastermind who could secretly execute Concubine Ying's Yun Wei'er, sighed lightly, and murmured: "If I guessed correctly, the reason why the emperor announced that Concubine Ying died of a violent illness and that her body had been cremated was either because he didn't want everyone to know the real cause of Concubine Ying's death, or because he had already transferred Concubine Ying's body elsewhere, or even Concubine Ying's body had already been disposed of and disappeared. Otherwise, the emperor would not use cremation to prevaricate everyone. ”

After hearing this, Liu Lu also felt that what Concubine Duan said made some sense, nodded lightly, and said: "In any case, Concubine Yingniang is dead, and the emperor will have one less obstacle, and you will have a chance to win the emperor's favor again." ”

Concubine Duan shook her head and sighed: "Even if I try my best now, I can't compete for the position of the pregnant queen in the emperor's heart." Unless ......"

Concubine Duan's heart is like a mirror, among the beauties of the entire harem, only the queen Helan Diemeng can get the emperor's trust and care, and it is more difficult to replace the queen's weight in the emperor's heart under the maintenance of the queen mother and the emperor. Not to mention, the queen is already pregnant. Unless during this period of time, there is something wrong with the fetus in the queen's womb, or something is wrong with the frail and sickly queen's body and gives up the queen's position, otherwise, Concubine Duan, who has been rejected by the emperor, has no possibility of returning to the throne.

Concubine Duan, who was also simple and kind, has gradually changed her color since she entered this cannibalistic harem. But Concubine Duan, who claims to be not a good person, still can't do it to the gentle, kind, and tolerant Queen Helan Diemeng. The grievances and disobedience in my heart can only be buried silently in my heart for the time being. Concubine Duan, who is unwilling to exhaust her splendor in this lonely and bleak harem, is secretly waiting for the opportunity. She is determined to follow the example of the Iron Lady Empress Dowager He Lanyan, step by step to the top of her power.

In the two days that Helian Yingche returned to the palace, he stayed by the side of Queen Helan Diemeng every day and took good care of Helan Diemeng.

The virtuous Helan Diemeng was dedicated to Helian Ying, thinking about the Gongliang who was in the Yurong Guard Camp. What Helian Yingche didn't expect was that Helan Die dreamed that Helian Yingche had accompanied him for the past two days and had never gone to the Yurong Guard Camp to take a look, so he privately sent someone to find out about Gongliang Ying'er's situation, and told Helian Yingche that Gongliang Ying'er took the initiative to petition and follow Shang Zhuo Shang's head to practice martial arts.

"You'er wants to follow Shang Zhuo to practice martial arts?!" Helian Yingche, who heard the news, was quite surprised by Gongliang's choice.

Helan Diemeng nodded and said, "I heard from the person who reported that among the seven people in the Yurong Guard Camp, only the young Mu Xingchen and Sister Fu'er took the initiative to sign up, vowing to follow Shangjiaotou to learn martial arts. ”

Helian Yingche said in a deep voice: "Since it is her choice, I have nothing to say. It was my idea to let her go to the Imperial Guard Camp for training, and if she really wanted to study hard and glorify her ancestors, I would have no choice but to follow her wishes. ”

Helan Diemeng asked softly: "Won't the emperor feel distressed if Sister Er'er suffers from martial arts?" ”
