Chapter 420: Dream of the Deep Palace (6)
seventeen
I thought she was rich because her home country gave her support, but now I know that she is only weak in character and afraid of offending people, so she pleases others so much.
The longer I spent with her, the more I realized that she was sincere and respectful to all levels of the Ham Blessing Palace.
It's just that the other concubines are not like this, when she is weak and easy to bully, rob her of the opportunity to sleep, and find her unhappy in the name of visiting her.
Until one day, she ate the lotus seed soup sent by an unknown concubine, and had diarrhea to the point that she almost miscarried, I finally couldn't help it and went to find the queen.
I told the queen the results of the investigation in the imperial hospital that someone deliberately added an excessive amount of hawthorn to the lotus seed soup to make Concubine De miscarry, but the queen smiled and said after seeing it: "Since the child is fine, forget it, don't make a big deal about this matter, they are all sisters." ”
I just think it's ridiculous, who is a sister to you hypocrites?
Since the queen doesn't want to care, I won't continue to pester her.
After leaving the queen's bedroom, I went directly to the imperial study, knelt in front of the emperor, and said directly: "Your Majesty, if someone wants to harm Concubine De's child, do you care?" ”
He walked up to me, helped me up, and said, "What happened?" ”
"Today, the imperial dining room brought a bowl of lotus seed soup to Concubine De, she had diarrhea after eating, and after careful inspection, Weichen found that it was the concubine who ordered someone to add more hawthorn to it. Wechen went to find the queen to deal with it, but the queen told Wechen to calm things down, the emperor, this is your child! ”
After I finished speaking in one breath, his eyes flickered slightly when he looked at me, and after a while, he smiled slightly and said, "You care so much about Concubine De, is it for my child?" I thought you were careful, and I wished that Concubine De would have an accident and leave the palace. ”
I was so angry with him that I could only stop for the sake of him as the emperor.
I don't know why, but he can still laugh at this point.
I gritted my teeth, endured the anger, and said: "The emperor thinks too much, Concubine De Niangniang treats her generously, the concubines and concubines have ridiculed and scolded Weichen many times before, and it is Concubine De Niangniang who has come out for Weichen, maybe this time the concubine harmed Concubine De's child, it is because of Weichen, how can Weichen sit idly by?" ”
His smile gradually cooled, and after a long time, he nodded and said, "Don't worry, I will be in charge of this matter." ”
I knelt down again and said, "Thank you to the emperor, and please rest assured that Weichen will take good care of Concubine De and will not let anyone hurt her." ”

The next day, the concubine was given to die.
When Concubine De heard the news, I saw that her eyes were red, and she immediately turned her back so that no one could see her.
I handed over the handkerchief and comforted her: "Concubine De doesn't have to be sad, the concubine plotted to kill the emperor's heir, and she deserved to be given death." ”
Concubine De hid her face for a long time, sighed deeply, and said, "In the end, it is his pillow person, and my child is fine, why can't she spare her life?" ”
I smiled and said, "If you can still save your life if you murder the emperor's heir, if this precedent is set, then it will be difficult to see stability in the harem." ”
Concubine De looked at me deeply, and the feelings in those eyes were very complicated.
I guess she thinks I'm scary, right? After all, when I mentioned things about human life, I would feel terrible if I were the same person I used to be.
I comforted her and said, "Concubine De, she was the one who harmed you first, you are not a knife, you are a fish, you don't have to be uncomfortable." ”
Concubine De spoke for a long time and said, "I'm uncomfortable, some because of her, and some because of you." ”
I was stunned and puzzled: "What does Concubine De mean by this?" ”
Concubine De looked away, looking at her and seemed a little uneasy, she lowered her eyes and said: "Ah Zi, do you know that not only the concubine was given death, but also the concubine was also sent to the cold palace, before entering the cold palace, His Majesty ordered someone to slap her mouth and knock out two of her front teeth alive. ”
I was stunned.
Concubine De sighed and said, "Ah Zi, the emperor is just disposing of concubines and concubines on the charge of murdering the emperor's heir, and I can see that the emperor cares about you very much." ”
I smiled bitterly: "What does Concubine De want to say?" ”
Concubine De didn't say anything more, but the maid beside her couldn't hold it back, and said to me angrily: "Every time Your Majesty comes to Niangniang, she will come to your house in the middle of the night, how many times has Niangniang woken up at night and couldn't sleep, Chu Weizi, if you really want to be a concubine, you might as well beg Your Majesty to give you a name, what are you doing robbing Niangniang of the opportunity?!" ”
Concubine De said angrily at the palace maid: "Shut up! Do you want to be beaten to death too?! ”
The palace maid looked at me fearfully, and muttered in a low voice: "Even if it is death, the slave maid does not want to see the mother being bullied like this." ”
When I heard the maid say these words, I suddenly laughed and asked her, "What is your name?" ”
The palace maid's eyes were even more frightened, but her mouth was still hard, and she said angrily: "My name is Zhao Yue, hmph, if you go to the emperor to denounce me, I'm not afraid!" ”
I smiled faintly: "You say me, it's okay, I won't take it to heart, but I hope you are really dedicated to Concubine De, otherwise, what happens to the concubine today will be what will happen to you in the future." ”
The palace maid's eyes wandered, and she glanced at Concubine De quickly, opened her mouth for a long time, and didn't dare to say another word.
I never thought that power was useful before, but this time, I just used the power of the emperor to deal with the concubines and concubines who were hostile to me, and also intimidated this little palace maid.
If one day, I want such supreme power, won't no one dare to bully me again?
Of course, I'm just thinking that power isn't what I want.
No matter how strong I become, I know that I am just the most ordinary woman, and all I want is a man who truly loves me and sees me as the only one.
