I thought she was so powerful, but I didn't expect it to be just an embroidered pillow, a weak woman.

"The emperor rewarded a few noble concubines in your family the day before yesterday, do you get along well?"

Hearing this, Qingwan really scolded the concubine and the emperor thousands of times in her heart, and she wanted to vomit disgusted by their behavior, but she still had to keep a smile on her face.

"My sisters are very good at getting along, and we had breakfast together yesterday, and we had a great time."

The concubine looked at Qingwan's hard mouth and felt very interesting, so she immediately said, "Oh? It seems that my sister is really virtuous and generous. ”

Qingwan didn't know how to speak to the concubine, so she had to say nothing.

"But I heard that the Lin family treated the concubines harshly, and let them share a room with the girl on the first day."

I don't know where the female dependents appeared, who instigated them, so it was difficult to clear up.

Qingwan didn't pay attention to it when she heard it, smiled, and replied directly: "Madame is really very ear-to-ear, and you know more about the concubine's net worth." ”

Madame was dumbfounded, and when she was about to refute, Qingwan continued: "Another day, Madame will be the master of this general's mansion, I am not worthy." ”

Xi Zhen listened from the sidelines, and couldn't help but giggle.

The Qingwan she knew had always been a gentle and kind lady, and today she entered this cockfighting ring, how did she become so domineering.

The lady looked extremely embarrassed, but she couldn't say anything more, just lowered her head and ate the pastry in front of her.

"Good news! Good news! ”

Suddenly, a message came from outside, and the eyes of all the ladies were focused.

Qingwan stood up even more excitedly.

"Marquis Dingyuan, General Weiyuan broke the enemy army! Deng City, the border city has been recaptured! ”

Qingwan stood stunned and listened, and tears welled up in her eyes in an instant.

What a good news, the king of Zhennan was driven back to his fiefdom, and his husband and wife drove the rebels out of the border city.

Xi Ji hugged Qingwan's shoulders, sat down with her in his arms, and comforted: "The general will not return to the court in a few days, you should be happy, why are you still crying?" ”

The concubine frowned and looked at Qingwan, feeling a little embarrassed.

The day before, the emperor also received a letter saying that it was not suitable to fight in winter, and it was suitable to stay until the beginning of spring because the rebels were competing, so why did they recover all the lost territory today?

Could it be that the emperor deceived her, and the emperor had the heart to guard against her, why did he give the concubine to the general's mansion?

Qingwan sat down excitedly, at this moment she felt that all the grievances she had suffered after returning to the capital had an outlet, as long as Wu Wen came back, she could bear anything.

A plum blossom banquet became popular because of the news of the war, and the concubine left for the palace after only two drinks.

Qingwan couldn't hold back her excitement at all, and she was about to go home immediately.

Shui Ming wandered around the General's Mansion and stumbled upon a dilapidated courtyard.

Although this courtyard is remote, it is tightly handled, and every gate of the courtyard is guarded by a householder.

"You go and bring them something to eat, and say that the new lady is sympathetic to them."

The little maid carried the food box to the courtyard, and she was also very curious, there was such a place in this general's mansion, no one had ever been here.

"Little buddy, my little lady brought you hibiscus crisp, after a hard day's work, come and eat some."

The family members looked at each other, in fact, they didn't know what to guard in this courtyard, there was no movement at all, it sounded like an empty courtyard.

Gold and silver treasures and the like, it doesn't look like it, after all, although this place is guarded by many people, it is a courtyard far away from the rest of the General's Mansion.

If someone does steal, they can quickly run away.

"The girl is really polite, where are we working hard."

Saying that, the leading family member followed the little maid to the side, and everyone picked up the snacks in the food box and ate them.

There was only one room in the courtyard, which looked very simple, and when I walked outside the door, I heard the sound of a murmur inside, but the voice was so faint that it would not have been inaudible unless I had listened carefully.

"Could it be that someone else is secretly being detained here?"

Shui Ming muttered suspiciously, listened quietly at the door for a while, then tentatively pushed the door open, entered the house, and as soon as he entered the house, he smelled a foul smell.

The three of them almost fainted in the room, and their bodies exuded the stench of unwashed for a long time.

"Who are you?"

Shui Ming asked like this, and after a long time, Dalang's daughter-in-law replied: "This is the general's mother, and I am the general's brother and sister-in-law." ”

This is earth-shattering news, Shui Ming thought in her heart, if the basket here was pierced by her, Qingwan would not want to gain a foothold in the capital.

Thinking of this, he immediately asked the three of them, "Why are you being detained here?" ”

Mrs. Qin's tears had dried up, and she could only snort hoarsely from her throat, "We were just fed poison and wanted to ask for help, so we were left here to fend for ourselves." ”

Shui Ming smiled and immediately promised: "Don't worry, I will definitely escape justice for you." ”

The little girl outside saw the water tea probe appear between the cracks in the door, and immediately pretended to lose her hairpin and looked around.

"Oh, my hairpin is missing, you can help me find it!"

The little maid's strategy is particularly effective for these families who have not been in contact with women for a long time, and for a while all the guards bowed their heads on the ground to help her find the lost hairpin, and it was at this time that Shui Ming escaped from the courtyard.

Seeing that Shui Ming was safe, the little maid immediately threw a hairpin into her distance.

"Ouch, isn't that there?"

The family members all gathered around and found that it was indeed a plain silver hairpin.

The little maid packed up the food box, and left without looking back, following Shui Ming, who was hiding in the distance.

"I have a plan in my heart, if it can be done, I will be the master of this general's mansion, and you will be the lady in charge of this courtyard, how about it?"

The little maid's eyes suddenly lit up, can she easily earn a future in this general's mansion? Why not!

The master and servant left the courtyard and returned to their own house, and Shui Ming immediately sent a secret report to the concubine in the palace, that is, she told about the detention of Mrs. Qin in the courtyard of the General's Mansion.

The concubine was relieved to see this secret report, she couldn't find Mrs. Qin for the past few days, and thought that this old woman had evaporated from the world, and now that she was confirmed to be in the General's Mansion, the situation would be more favorable to her.

At night, Qingwan had just returned to the mansion and was about to write a letter to Wu Wen to ask about the war, but he didn't expect a heavy knock on the door to come.

"Sister, it's not good, there are a lot of officers and soldiers, they said that they want to take you down and enter the inner palace."

Qingwan put on a heavier jacket, and followed Zi Yan out, sure enough, there were officers with torches outside, she could only pretend to be calm and asked: "What happened, are you military masters going to kill people in the General's Mansion?" ”

Zi Yan whispered beside Qingjuan and said: "Futang went out, the goods from Qingping City just arrived today, he contacted the warehouse in the suburbs of Beijing, I'm afraid he won't return until tomorrow." ”

"What the hell is going on, so exciting!"

Qingwan suddenly had a little more arrogance that was still in the army, and then he got the answer.

"The general's wife's room, the nobles of the court, the detention of the mother-in-law, the bullying of the brother and sister-in-law, and the accountability of the inner palace."

What the?

Qingwan's heart beat a drum, when did she detain Qin Pozi, but she didn't expect that at this time, the military masters brought the rescued Qin Pozi and others, they looked very weak, and they no longer had the majestic and high-spirited cockfighting appearance in the past.

Qingwan looked at Zi Yan, looking at his expression, she understood a little, and thought that it was probably Fu Tang and Zi Yan who wanted to vent this evil breath for her, so they took revenge on Qin Pozi like this.

"I understand, let me change my clothes, and I will enter the palace with you immediately."

At night, even the way into the palace became black, the palace was very quiet, as if it was a cemetery, she was taken to the emperor's study, looking at the emperor who was looking at the excerpts above, Qingwan had to kneel down respectfully and salute.

"Concubine Lin, see the emperor."

The emperor didn't speak, nor did he let Lin get up, but walked in front of her silently.

"Imperial Doctor?"

Well? Why did you call a doctor? Qingwan was puzzled, and the imperial doctor on the side immediately knelt down to Qingwan's side and took her pulse.

"Back to the emperor, it is indeed a happy pulse."

The emperor snorted coldly, "It seems that the rumors are true, you do have the blood of General Weiyuan." It's just that I'm curious, whether your child is towards Wu Wen or towards King Zhennan. ”

Qingwan stroked her stomach and smiled slightly: "My child, towards himself, will not be loyal to anyone." ”

"Hahaha!"

The emperor has never heard such arrogant words for so long, but this girl is very bold and dares to say such things in front of him.

"But when you say that, I'm a lot more relieved, a woman like you, even if she says she's loyal to me, I won't believe it."

Qingwan didn't want to talk nonsense with the emperor, she just wanted to know what the emperor's purpose was for asking her to come at night.

"Look at it."

The emperor took down a secret report from the table, which was the notes of her husband Wu Wen. After reading the content of the letter, Qingwan was also very puzzled.

"If the emperor agrees, he can immediately withdraw his troops and return to the court, and if he does not agree, he can also stalemate with the king of Zhennan in the border city."

Qingwan's words made the emperor laugh again, this little lady really doesn't understand human feelings, and she doesn't know how to eat meat.

"My Liang country is so rich, where would I be afraid that after reconciliation, I will give them such a small compensation and reward in exchange for decades of peace. It's just that I'm afraid that he will be harassed every day, and I'm even more afraid that he won't be able to be filled with such benefits. ”

The desire is difficult to fill, Qingwan understood what the emperor meant.

Qingwan was even more unhappy at this time, so the emperor sent her a few concubines two days ago to add to the blockage? Now that there is already a meaning for her to come forward to reject the king of Zhennan.
