As soon as Er Xin heard it, he knew that Concubine Shuniang was deliberately waiting for her at the door, and when the emperor left, she naturally wanted to settle accounts with herself.

Er Xin stepped forward with a hard head: "The slave maid visits the lady concubine." ”

Su Shangqing glanced at her contemptuously and said, "Where did you go?" ”

Thinking that Su Shangqing remembered that there was such a girl after sending the emperor away, Fang Caierxin was indeed smarter than others when he exonerated himself in front of the emperor, and he could still get Su Shangqing's favor, which wanted her to come and wait, but she couldn't see anyone, and when she asked, she seemed to have run out.

Su Shangqing thought: Where can a stinky girl go? After all, she can't run out of the palace and still has to come back, and see how the palace cleans her up when she comes back!

Su Shangqing has been waiting at the gate of the palace, and at this time, the palace maids and eunuchs around her have realized that Concubine Shu's temper is getting bigger and bigger, and now it has reached the point where it is difficult to control, and it is right to think about it.

No matter which of them has reached the identity and status of Shufei Niangniang, the emperor still favors the Shufei Niangniang of Ganquan Palace, and besides, she is the first and only concubine among the emperor's concubines who can conceive a child for the emperor, and now the child in her belly is two months old.

The emperor favors the lady concubine of Ganquan Palace, this lady has no strong opponent in the palace, even the queen is compared to her, and now she can only sleep in the Qianning Palace.

It is said that when he was seriously ill, the emperor did not ask a word, nor did he instruct the hospital to go to Qianning Palace to take care of it, and now all the imperial doctors are waiting in Ganquan Palace, always paying attention to the fetal image of the concubine.

But many imperial doctors are thinking that there is nothing worth noting about the fetus that is only two months old, and if there is anything to pay attention to, it should also be paid more attention to the concubine, no matter how they are, it will be useless.

But I don't know why, now the emperor has let the entire palace revolve around Shufei Niangniang alone, which really fuels the momentum of Shufei Niangniang.

Su Shangqing was in the palace during this time, and she enjoyed the honor that she had never enjoyed in her life, and everyone gathered around her and let her be sent alone.

In this way, it is normal for Su Shangqing's temper to grow.

Er Xin knew this, and he also thought about what the queen mother had just said to herself, and she couldn't get used to seeing the lady concubine in her heart, but she had to endure it.

Er Xin lowered his head and said resignedly: "The slave was worried that she would be disgusted in front of the emperor and Niangniang, so she went out and took medicine for Niangniang in the Tai Hospital. ”

This medicine was asked by Yuebai to be taken by Yuebai, and she was also worried that she would arouse Su Shangqing's suspicion after she went back.

Su Shangqing saw that Er Xin really had medicine in his hand, so he didn't think much about it, and then said: "Then come in quickly, the palace is tired, you come to serve the palace to rest." ”

"Yes." Erxin hurriedly followed.

In the dormitory of the lady concubine, Er Xin and several palace maids knelt in front of the bed, quietly waiting for the lady to take a break.

At this time, the sun was slowly setting, and Er Xin looked at the afterglow coming in from the window, his eyes narrowed slightly, as if he was thinking about something.

Then she stood up, kneeling for too long and her legs and feet were a little numb, and the palace maid behind her hurriedly knelt up straight to support her, without making a sound, for fear that she would make noise to the lady concubine who was sleeping in the tent.

Er Xin walked to the window, put her hands on the window frame, she squinted at the sun in the distance, and remembered what she had just said to the queen mother in Qianning Palace-

Er Xin really didn't understand, why did the queen mother hate the concubine so much, why didn't she kill her? In fact, if the child in her belly is killed, then everything will come to an abrupt end, the queen mother is powerful, there is the Liang family and the Qin family behind her, and it is the first emperor to marry, when the first emperor died, the queen mother also did a lot of things, raw cut into medicine, which is obvious to everyone.

As long as the child in the belly of the concubine is killed and she loses this reliance, then the concubine will have no value to the emperor.

But at that time, Er Xin looked at the queen mother's eyes with a trace of pity, she shook her head and said: "The child is innocent, he has always wanted a child, since this palace can't give him, he will never stop others from letting him get his wish." ”

At that moment, Er Xin realized that in fact, the queen still had a glimmer of hope for the emperor, otherwise, how could she believe that the emperor still loved her? is willing to take risks in such a way, it is difficult to ensure that the queen still has a glimmer of hope for the emperor in her heart.

But on the other hand, Su Shangqing, she is just a poor silk attached to the emperor.

Er Xin slowly closed the window, and the last trace of afterglow slowly closed in front of Er Xin's eyes.

Er Xin is determined to help the queen mother take revenge on the lady concubine, and she must pay the price for the lady concubine, no matter what the price is, there are too many people who are unlucky out of the palace because of her.

What's more, because Su Shangqing's identity is too embarrassing, many people in the palace are dissatisfied with her because of her embarrassing background, the most important thing is because of her arrogant temperament, the emperor spoils her, so he thinks that no one in the palace can do anything to her.

But in fact, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the emperor loves where the concubine is the concubine, it is obviously the child in her belly, as long as she gives birth to the imperial heir after being pregnant in October, after a long time, she may be even worse than the queen.

The queen still has a mother's family to rely on, and she still has a foundation in the court, but the lady has nothing.

After three years of drafting, countless dignitaries will send their daughters and sisters to the palace to participate in the draft, and there will be more young concubines to come to the palace, they are young and beautiful, their family background is good, and their upbringing and etiquette are very in place.

In Er Xin's eyes, the current lady concubine is so arrogant and domineering, it is really ridiculous to do a thing, she firmly remembers the teachings of the queen mother, as long as she does this well, then the queen mother will promise herself in the future, and the revitalization of the family will be put on Er Xin, although Er Xin's parents are dead, but there is also an elder brother.

As long as it is on the mountain of the queen's mother, the fate of my brother's career and the entire Liu family will change, Er Xin stood in front of the window, and said secretly in his heart: "Liu Erxin, the revitalization of the family depends on you!" As long as you help the queen mother to handle this matter well, the day the queen returns to favor will be the time when your Liu family recovers. ”

At that time, Liang Huanqing chose Erxin, just to see that Liu Erxin was originally the child of an official eunuch, and he was originally a slave and a maid in the palace, if he served a person who was not as good as himself, he would definitely feel a little uncomfortable in his heart.

As long as Liu Erxin has such thoughts, then everything becomes very simple.

A few days later is the Double Ninth Festival, according to the custom, during the Double Ninth Festival, the emperor will set up a banquet in the palace, ascend to pick dogwood, at that time the ministers in the Baohe Hall and the emperor to drink dogwood wine, in order to be safe and smooth.

"Queen Mother, will we go again to this year's Double Ninth Festival?" Now the queen mother's spirit is much better than a few days ago.

There was news from Ganquan Palace, and Er Xin said that he had been mentioning the matter of Qianning Palace to Concubine Shuniang intentionally or unintentionally recently, but Concubine Shuniang was unhappy when she heard about Qianning Palace, and she always couldn't find a chance to let the emperor know.

Liang Huanqing just let Erxin take his time, now that Liang Huanqing can get out of bed and walk, coupled with the care of Princess Wangshu, there will also be a doctor to come for diagnosis and treatment, and his body is much better than before.

As long as it is a palace banquet, the queen mother should attend with the emperor, but at this time, the emperor did not let Qianning Palace interfere in the matter of the Chongyang banquet, and the Chongyang banquet will start soon, and Yuebai is also a little worried about this matter, so she will talk about it while combing the queen's hair.

Liang Huanqing originally closed his eyes, but slowly opened his eyes after listening to Yuebai's words, his eyes were erratic, as if he was thinking about something.

Yuebai also stopped the movement in his hand and slowly put down the comb, as if waiting for the queen mother to speak.

I don't know how long it took, Liang Huanqing shook his head and closed his eyes again: "Don't go, the palace has been sick for so long, so I still don't want to join in the excitement, I want to come to the palace, the emperor should be angry again, the Double Ninth Festival...... You let Tang Xue, no, it's better for you to go, you find a time to get out of the palace and burn some paper money for your father, like Jiang Yi and Shen Tuchen, and burn a little too. ”

Yuebai listened to the words of the queen mother as if she was about to cry, and then nodded and responded.

On the day of the Double Ninth Festival, hundreds of officials wore court clothes and walked from Taihe Gate to Baohe Hall in turn to participate in the feast.

Liang Lin had received the news earlier that the queen would not come to participate in the Double Ninth Festival this time.

After everyone sat down, they saw that the emperor was surrounded by the new concubine Niangniang-

I saw her wearing a rose purple thousand-petal chrysanthemum top, a moon-white pleated ruyi moon skirt, such as wooden black hair combed into a reverse bun, a newly picked white hibiscus hairpin, decorated with thin silver beaded tassels, black treasure earrings swaying, and her temperament was graceful and quiet.

The elegant jade face is painted with light plum blossom makeup, and the original clear and beautiful face has faded because of becoming a woman, and the immature youth shows a trace of charm, seducing the soul, like a fairy, and the demeanor is outstanding and captivating the country.

On the lake blue emerald cigarette shirt is draped in a light blue thin smoke veil, and under the scattered flowers, water mist, green grass pleated skirt. The eyes are full of spring water, and a hollow golden hairpin is obliquely inserted in the bun on his head, decorated with a little purple jade tassel, which is plain and decent. The milky white mixed pink skirt is embroidered with water lines, and there are many gold and silver lines of snow beaver fluff irregularly, the slender waist is not enough to hold a hand, and a colored chain is tied on it, and the color chain is strung or inlaid or embedded with many treasures and strange things, which is extremely gorgeous. A brocade robe with purple-black and silver edges and milky white lines conceals the splendor of the inner skirt, and is tied with a fine jadeite colored satin. The ten fingers are dyed with light purple, and there is a ring on the middle of the left hand that I don't know what it is, not luxurious but very attractive. The left hand is inlaid with gold and engraved auspicious cloud Zirui, and the colorful back-to-back bracelet on the right hand is tied to the ring finger. The feet are covered with light blue and light white embroidered shoes. Turning around the pretty face, the light makeup and color shadow on the jade face are beautiful and sultry, so that people can't help but give everything they have. The bottomless burgundy eyes are fleeting between the openings, the cherry sip vermilion is not dotted and glamorous and seductive, the double earrings Pei Lingling makes a sound like a curtain of flashing glowing and glowing, the hair is lightly pulled into the slanted plough bun, obliquely inserted with a delicate hanging hairpin, there are butterfly glass and other jewels in the middle, and the next row of delicate and ingenious delicate and gorgeous curtains, and the charming beauty of dynamic luxury flashes between the whole person's behavior.

Wearing a pale green long skirt, the cuffs are embroidered with light blue lotus, silver threads outline a few auspicious clouds, and the hem is densely packed with a row of sea clouds. A wide piece of brocade wraps around the chest, and the body gently turns the long skirt and spreads softly. Tied with a tassel bun at will, the hairline is obliquely inserted into the hibiscus warm jade step and shake, the eyebrows and eyes are lightly swept with spring, the skin is as fine as warm jade, and the cherry mouth is red without dotting, delicate and gorgeous. The two strands of hair on the cheeks are gently brushed in the wind, adding a touch of seductive style. The elegant pearl earrings sway gently, but the gems on the nails are bewitching and dazzling.

looks very noble and unparalleled, and her appearance is mediocre, but after entering the palace, she can clearly see her changes, and I think it is because of the emperor's favor.

Qi Jingqin took Su Shangqing's hand and sat on the upper seat, the courtiers exchanged glances, and then looked at General Liang Lian, thinking of these recent events, he had a bad premonition in his heart: Could it be that the Liang family really declined like this? Even the queen didn't attend the banquet, but let such a country girl replace her?

Qi Wangshu rolled her eyes vigorously below, only to see Concubine Shen comforting her with her eyes and telling her not to do this.

The Double Ninth Festival is to respect the elderly, and the concubines in the palace are even more noble old people, and they will inevitably come to the banquet.

Among all the concubines, Shen Shu is the youngest and most noble, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that she is Qi Jingqin's concubine.
