Chapter 372: Understand

Soon after Concubine Jing left, Concubine Wen also arrived at Concubine Rou's residence.

She was also a little surprised to see Qian Yan kneeling in the courtyard.

But she didn't know each other well, so she didn't speak.

It's just that after entering the hall, she asked Concubine Rou casually: "Sister Rou Guifei, I don't know what happened to Concubine Rou?" You made her kneel in the snow? ”

Concubine Rou took a sip of hot tea casually, "She, she committed a small thing and knocked down the palace maid holding the fifth prince." ”

Concubine Wen: "There is such a thing?" Did the five princes fall? ”

"Fortunately, the palace maid protects the lord and firmly protects the five princes in her arms, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable." Concubine Rou also looked at Concubine Wen, "Sister Concubine Wen, as a mother, should be able to understand my feelings of worrying about the five princes, right?" ”

Wen Guifei: "That's nature, we are mothers, and the most important thing is the child." ”

Rou Guifei: "It's good that Sister Wen Guifei can understand her sister's difficulties, you said that the eldest prince is not your own, you love him so much, not to mention that the fifth prince is my own flesh and blood who worked hard to conceive for ten months, how can this palace spare the people who bully him?" ”

"Besides, I'm dealing with people and things in my own residence, and I hope my sister won't interfere, just like every time I'm at my sister's, isn't it up to my sister to decide everything?"

As soon as these words came out, the concubines present smelled a strong smell of gunpowder.

Concubine Wen was embarrassed by Concubine Rou in public, and her face was embarrassed for a moment, and her face was a little ugly.

But she quickly returned to normal, with her usual gentle and detached smile on her face, "My sister's residence, of course, is my sister's decision." ”

She is indeed angry in her heart, but Concubine Rou is the same concubine as her, and she is in charge of the harem together.

As long as Concubine Rou is not excessive, she can't be aggressive.

And what Concubine Rou said is also true, the eldest prince is indeed not her own.

This is the pain of her life!

At the same time, the emperor consulted with several ministers in the study of the lodge to discuss the relevant matters at the end of the year.

A little eunuch came in from outside and said, "Your Majesty, Concubine Jing asks to see you." ”

The ministers were reporting to the emperor on an errand, and Ying Zhan was listening energetically.

Now that he was interrupted by this little eunuch, Ying Zhan's thick eyebrows frowned impatiently, "Didn't you see me discussing political affairs?" ”

The little eunuch: "The slave also said this to Concubine Jing, but Concubine Jing said that she had something important to see, and it was about the concubine." ”

When Ying Zhan heard the words "Tilt your concubine", her deep eyes dimmed slightly, "I have important matters to discuss with the ministers, you let her wait in the front hall!" ”

Little Eunuch: "Yes." ”

After touching a stick of incense, Ying Zhan discussed political affairs with the ministers before saying to Li Zhong: "Go, Concubine Xuan Jing comes in." ”

After a while, the ministers had all left, and Concubine Jing entered the study under the leadership of Li Zhong.

As soon as she entered the house, Concubine Jing knelt down.

Ying Zhan sat on the Taishi chair in the study, looking at Concubine Jing lightly, "Say, what's the matter?" Do you want to see me? ”

Concubine Jing: "Your Majesty, the concubine is here for the sister of the noble concubine." ”

Ying Zhan said in a light tone: "What's wrong with her?" ”

Concubine Jing: "Concubine Rou punished her for kneeling in the snow." ”

Ying Zhan: "Isn't it normal for high-ranking concubines to punish low-ranking concubines?" ”

Concubine Jing: "......"

How could the emperor's reaction be different from what she imagined?

It stands to reason that when the emperor heard that Xiao Yanyan was punished by Concubine Rou to kneel, shouldn't he immediately pass on an oracle and a holy decree to save Xiao Yanyan and the ice and snow?

Even, the emperor directly came to Concubine Rou's residence to support Xiao Yanyan.

But why is the emperor so indifferent?

It seems that it is natural for Concubine Rou to punish Xiao Yanyan.

Just when Concubine Jing was stunned, she only heard the emperor ask Li Zhong, "Li Zhong, do you know about this?" ”

Li Zhong: "If you go back to the emperor, the slave has just learned, it is said that it was the concubine who knocked down the palace maid holding the five princes, and the concubine Rou loved her son, so she punished the concubine." ”

Hearing this, Ying Zhan bowed slightly, indicating that he understood.

Concubine Jing hurriedly defended Qian Yan: "Your Majesty, the five princes were not injured at all, it must have been Concubine Rou who used this as an excuse to deliberately punish Tian Guifei." ”

"Do you have to get the fifth prince injured?" Ying Zhan's face was cold, "Anyway, it's a fact that the noble concubine knocked down the five princes!" ”

Concubine Jing: "But you should know that she is not the kind of person who is jealous of concubines, and she will not bully a child who is only a few months old because of jealousy!" ”

Ying Zhan: "What kind of person is she?" ”

Concubine Jing was slightly stunned, "Don't you know what kind of person she is?" She has never been jealous of the harem concubines, even if she has a holiday with the harem concubines, she will never attack the children. ”

"Heh, Concubine Ai's words are wrong" Ying Zhan's face was gloomy, "I always thought that the noble concubine was what I thought in my heart, but she was not. I also thought that I knew enough about the concubine, but I only recently realized that I couldn't understand her more and more. ”

"So, why should I trust someone I don't know much about?"

Hearing this, Concubine Jing sat down on the ground.

Why is the emperor's attitude towards Xiao Yanyan completely different?

What happened between the emperor and Xiao Yanyan?

Concubine Jing held on to the only remaining glimmer of hope and said, "But Concubine Rou asked her to kneel in the snow for two hours, and when the morning passes, her whole body will freeze." ”

Hearing this, Ying Zhan's thick eyebrows raised slightly, and then said indifferently: "The noble concubine knocked down the fifth prince, and the noble concubine punished her to kneel in the snow for two hours, which is quite light." ”

Concubine Jing: "......"

She came with great confidence and hope.

In her opinion, the emperor loves Xiao Yanyan very much, and he will definitely support Xiao Yanyan!

But since she entered this study, the emperor poured basins of cold water one after another.

All the confidence and hope were extinguished by this man.

Just now, the last glimmer of hope was completely extinguished, and no flame could be ignited.

Yes, but helpless and helpless.

In his mind, Xiao Yanyan knelt frozen in the snow.

Ying Zhan saw Concubine Jing kneeling on the ground in a daze, her tone indifferent, "What else does Concubine Ai have to say?" ”

Concubine Jing shook her head, indicating that she had nothing to say.

Ying Zhan waved his palm, "In that case, then retreat." ”

Concubine Jing answered "yes" and left like a walking corpse.

When she came, she swore that the emperor would take care of the matter.

Now that things have backfired, she didn't have the face to go to Concubine Rou's residence, let alone see Xiao Yanyan, so she had to take the opportunity to go back to her own residence.

It was the residence of Concubine Rou, and after the concubines chatted about it in the morning, they all dispersed.

Even the minions in the yard hid in the house to keep warm.

In the huge courtyard, only the three of them, Qian Yan, Xiao Lian, and Xiao Guizi, knelt there.
