Once Zhuang Xiuyi committed suicide by cutting her wrists because she was not favored, and in the end, her personal palace maid Shumei helped her bear this charge, so that she could be saved. And Xiao Changqi looked at the face of his father and Ren Ran and forgave her sins.

Zhuang Xiuyi has become very silent since she lost her eyebrows, and she rarely comes out of her own Yucuixuan, unless it is some occasion where she has to come forward, she stays in her palace. Until a palace maid named Jiusui appeared, she usually talked to her, let her go out for a walk, look at the flowers, or pass on the famous dancing girl to Yucuixuan to relieve her boredom and amuse.

After a long time, Zhuang Xiuyi has slowly become dependent on Jiusui, sometimes she thinks that Jiusui is her book eyebrow, and she has changed her appearance to accompany herself.

This time, among the palace maids who were transferred away by the inner chamberlain, there were nine ears.

When Jiusui left, she said to Zhuang Xiuyi that she didn't want to leave her, and she wanted to be with her forever.

Zhuang Xiuyi, who had lost a caring palace maid, immediately collapsed, and together with the guilt and longing for Shumei, a sense of grief and indignation, he went to Kunyuan Palace regardless of it.

"Queen Mother, you can return Jiusui to the concubine, the concubine can't live without her." Zhuang Xiuyi knelt on the ground and kowtowed, begging Ye Qingyan bitterly.

Ye Qingyan was also very sympathetic to Zhuang Xiuyi, knowing that this Jiusui had a good relationship with her.

It's just that if this Jiusui is found to have a problem, it is not something she can decide, and Xiao Changqi needs to nod and agree.

And Xiao Changqi because of the loss of the Emperor, these palace people with bad intentions are all severely punished, and now Jiusui may have ......

"This matter, this palace really can't call the shots."

"You are the queen's mother, isn't it all the mother's decision on the affairs of the harem?"

"The situation where the palace has the final say, is when everything is in order, but these disordered palace people, the palace can't interfere."

"Disordered palace people?" Zhuang Xiuyi was stunned.

Ye Qingyan said directly to her, "Jiusui should be Hua Wan's person." ”

"No!" Zhuang Xiuyi denied it, "Impossible, how can the eldest princess be the palace maid of the concubine, it must be a mistake by the inner chamberlain." Jiusui is so kind, so good, and she never mentioned the eldest princess. ”

"What if she admits it herself?" Ye Qingyan sighed, as long as the other concubines hinted that there was something wrong with the palace people, they immediately retreated, eager to prick their wings and leave. These harem concubines cherish their feathers very much, how can they let the stain be around them, affect themselves, and affect their mother's family.

Zhuang Xiuyi shook his head, "No, it's impossible, it must be ...... It must be the inner chamberlain's hard work! Yes, no one can withstand the torture of the inner eunuch, it must be so, Jiusui was wronged in vain. ”

"The inner chamberlain will not arrest people without evidence and evidence, you wait, the palace will let people get evidence."

Ye Qingyan glanced at Jing Lin.

Jing Lin nodded, and left.

Zhuang Xiuyi looked at Ye Qingyan's determined eyes, and gradually began to have a trace of uncertainty in his heart. But thinking of Jiusui's goodness, he put aside the slightest uncertainty, "The concubine has lost her eyebrows and is already in pain." If you lose Jiusui again, you might as well take the life of your concubine. ”

"What if it turns out that she's only been using you all along?"

"Using concubines?"

"Yes. She has always just been using you, all the good for you, just to achieve her ulterior purpose. ”

"Absolutely not! Jiusui, she has true feelings for her concubines. Besides, what is there about the concubine that is worth using for her? His Majesty has no favor or love for concubines, and concubines are just decorations. ”

Ye Qingyan looked at her, and her voice became colder, "Zhuang Xiuyi, no favor and no love, it is the fate of the women in the palace." No one lives forever, and that's how it ends. In fact, it is a kind of luck not to have it. ”

Because if you don't get it, you won't lose it, and you won't despair, and your heart will die like ashes.

"Isn't it ironic for you to say this, mother? You are the one who has been favored by His Majesty, you are mocking the concubine. After four years in the palace, he had no favor or love, and he didn't let go of a slave and maid. Is it still the same as other concubines, filthy speculative concubines and a palace maid grinding mirrors? Niangniang really made the concubines ashamed. ”

Zhuang Xiuyi suddenly felt sad from his heart, and he was resentful of Ye Qingyan.

Ye Qingyan looked at Zhuang Xiuyi and felt compassion, "This palace has no malicious intent, this is the experience of this palace, whether you believe it or not." ”

In the last life, she survived like that. If you don't get it, you don't have to talk about losing, and living quietly for a lifetime is also a way to live, which is neither good nor bad.

Zhuang Xiuyi stared at Ye Qingyan with indignant eyes, and was about to reply again, when he saw a palace maid coming in a hurry.

"Returning to the queen's mother, the Chinese book makes the lord ask to see him."

Zhongshu Order? Ye Qingyan looked at Zhuang Xiuyi in the audience, and when he saw Zhuang Xiuyi's face, he was instantly flustered.

It seems that the front hall knew that Zhuang Xiuyi came to make trouble, and Zhongshuling was sent by Xiao Changqi to solve it, which was also to give Zhuang Xiuyi face. Otherwise, if Xiao Changqi comes to deal with it, it is likely to be grounded and reduced, and don't want to come out of Yucuixuan again in this life.

Ye Qingyan said: "Please invite the Lord of the Chinese Book Order to the side hall." ”

The words fell, and he looked at Zhuang Xiuyi, "You can go over too." ”

"Nope! Concubines do not see their fathers. Zhuang Xiuyi got up from the ground and seemed to run out of the palace.

But outside the palace, Lord Zhongshu Ling was already waiting.

When he saw her, he opened his mouth and said, "Confused! ”

"Father, father!" Zhuang Xiuyi's legs were weak and he fell to the ground.

Jing Lin came back with a confession in her hand, as well as a letter.

Ye Qingyan looked at the letter, which was Jiusui's confession. She entered the palace to become a big palace maid, and then reported the situation in the palace, especially the news in Kunyuan Palace, to Hua Wan in every detail.

And in that letter, it was Jiusui's handwritten letter, which was written that Ye Qingyan suddenly became emaciated, the two palace maids left Kunyuan Palace, Xiao Changqi did not enter the queen's palace for three days, and the queen mother began to meddle in palace affairs.

Ye Qingyan gave the letter and confession to Jinglin again, "Go and show it to Lord Zhongshuling." ”

Jing Lin went out with her things.

Ye Qingyan got up from the phoenix chair and said to Qingxing: "This palace is tired, you have to sleep and grow more meat." "Otherwise, people outside the palace thought she couldn't do it.

I didn't expect Hua Wan to be in the capital all the time, from a bright fox snake to a hidden insect scorpion, and it is the kind of hundred-legged insect that dies but does not stiffen.

……

Xuande Hall –

Xiao Changqi took a sip of tea and picked up the last book on the imperial case that had not been reviewed.

Ren Ran held a thick book of at least thirty pieces in his hand, and entered the Xuande Hall at the right time.
