This time, Yin Xiaoxiao was silent for a longer time.

As the daughter-in-law of the Heavenly Family, no one knows the cruelty of imperial power better than her.

In the face of supreme power, how easy is it to maintain a normal heart? She can be stable, but Concubine Jing is obviously "unstable".

and Brother Lin, Brother Ting, who is already a hot-blooded, impulsive and high-spirited teenager. It would not be unusual for them to have a desire to compete for savings. It's hard to say whether she can stop it or not......

"Don't worry about it." Xiao Yuhan's gentle voice sounded in his ears: "There is always a way before the car reaches the mountain." You have no scheming and murderous intentions, you are open-minded, and the emperor and queen have clear eyes and clear hearts. ”

Yin Xiaoxiao cheered up and smiled: "What the third sister-in-law said is true. ”

There are two concubines, and there are few masterminds behind this matter.

Now it seems that Concubine Xian and Zhao Changqing are the most suspicious. Secondly, it is Concubine Duan and Wang An.

Of course, there is another possibility.

"Perhaps, these are the queen's handiwork."

Yin Xiaoxiao doesn't like conspiracy and calculation. However, she is not stupid, after thinking about it carefully, she became suspicious of Xie Mingxi: "Set up this game, kill chickens and make an example of monkeys, those women with improper minds will no longer dare to lead their daughters into the palace." gave Concubine Mei another warning. ”

In the past two years, Concubine Mei has often been mean and difficult for the queen. With the queen's temperament and temper, she can endure it for so long, which is quite patient. ”

Xiao Yuhan was also suspicious, but said in his mouth: "You can't talk nonsense about such things. If it is passed into the Hanxiang Palace, it is a taboo in the palace. I don't know how many rights and wrongs are going to be provoked. ”

Seeing through it or not saying it is the right reason.

Yin Xiaoxiao nodded: "I'm just talking in front of you, and I won't say a word if I change someone else." ”

……

Concubine Duan was also frightened, and took the initiative to go to the Jiaofang Palace: "Queen, I haven't touched the matter of Hanxiang Palace at all. ”

Xie Mingxi glanced at Concubine Duan, who looked restless, and smiled idly: "That being the case, why is Concubine Duan so anxious and anxious to take the initiative to confess?" ”

Duan Taifei: "......"

Aren't you afraid that Xie Mingxi will "find" some evidence and rely on her for this?

After all, she had the idea of sending Brother Yun to be raised in the Jiaofang Palace. With Xie Mingxi's shrewdness, I am afraid that I have already known it, and it is not unusual to find an opportunity to clean her up......

Of course, these words, Concubine Duan could never say. I had to laugh together: "This kind of thing happened in the palace, it's really annoying." I, the concubine, couldn't help the queen, and I didn't dare to cause trouble for the queen. ”

Xie Mingxi said lightly: "Concubine Duan is too humble. King An is the emperor's sibling and the emperor's right-hand man. Concubine Duan stayed in the palace safely, so that King An could work on an errand with peace of mind. ”

"If Concubine Duan made a mistake, did something she shouldn't do, said something she shouldn't say, and moved her mind that shouldn't be moved. The first person who was in trouble was King An. ”

"Concubine Duan has a motherly heart, how can she bear to worry King An?"

In a few words, the cold sweat on the concubine's forehead came down: "What the queen said is extremely true." King An and the emperor are brothers, and the emperor has no doubt about employing people, and it is the blessing of King An to reuse King An. I, the mother-in-law, can only be happy for my son. I would never do anything to embarrass my son. ”

Xie Mingxi smiled slightly: "Concubine Duan is really a mother's heart. ”

Concubine Duan continued to laugh with her, not daring to inquire about Hanxiang Palace again.

Xie Mingxi was considerate and took the initiative to say: "It's really annoying that something like this happened in Hanxiang Palace. Fortunately, Miss Zhou is safe, and the palace doesn't want to delve into this matter anymore. ”

"The palace has sent people to Concubine Xian's dormitory, so that Concubine Xian and Concubine Jing can feel at ease."

"Concubine Duan took the initiative to come, and the palace was quite pleased. Come to think of it, this matter has nothing to do with Concubine Duan. Concubine Duan just relaxed, and the matter was over. ”

After a stick of incense, Concubine Duan walked out of the Jiaofang Palace, and her back was soaked with cold sweat.

……

After this day, several concubines complained together.

Xie Mingxi went in person to visit the patients one by one, and said kind words and comforted.

With this "relief", Concubine Xian, Concubine Jing, and Concubine Duan fell ill directly until the end of the year...... This is a later story, so I won't mention it for the time being.

Concubine Mei was really sick, and she would be raised for a month before she could barely stay. The person has lost a lot of weight, and his complexion is not as good as before. He has a poor appetite and doesn't speak every day.

Qin Se is an old palace maid in her forties. The energy is far less than when I was young, and I want to stay by Concubine Mei's side all day long, but I am powerless. had to let the palace maids sent by Empress Xie serve Concubine Mei.

These young palace maids are very carefully served, and no one can find out.

But Concubine Mei is still haggard and emaciated day after day.

The reason is not difficult to guess.

The pro-faith henchmen were swept away, and Xie Mingxi's people were all around him. wanted to talk to Qin Se and send them down, but one by one he knelt down and pleaded guilty, saying that he was ordered by the queen mother and could not leave the left and right without permission.

When Empress Dowager Yu was alive, Concubine Mei had not experienced such methods of grinding people. Since her son ascended the throne as emperor and Empress Dowager Yu died again, Concubine Mei has lived comfortably.

Unexpectedly, today, it has been rubbed into languishing.

Xie Mingxi has done a thorough job on the surface, and he comes to visit every morning and evening, but whenever the imperial doctor prescribes, he must ask. It's Sheng Hong, these days are less.

It's not that Sheng Hong is not filial. It's just that there has been a major incident in the DPRK and China recently.

There was a drought in Jindi, and there was a great famine, and there were many hungry people. The local officials opened the warehouse in time to release grain, but there was less food and more victims. And there are grain merchants who stock up grain from it, wanting to take advantage of the famine year to make a lot of money. The victims were so hungry that they could not think about it, so they gathered a crowd and rushed into the grain merchants, robbed the grain, and killed people.

As a result, civil unrest arose. This group of victims has grown from a few hundred at the beginning to more than 10,000 people. There were only 3,000 garrisons in the area, but they were routed by this group of victims, and most of them were killed.

At this point, the victims of the disaster have also become bandits. Without doing anything, he simply occupied the local government office and detained all the officials in the official office as hostages.

When the news reached the court, the Son of Heaven was furious, and immediately summoned important ministers into the palace to discuss countermeasures, and sent troops to quell the chaos.

These days, Sheng Hong gets up early and goes to bed late every day, and sometimes he sleeps in the Yiqing Hall when the discussion is too late at night. I didn't even have time to go back to the Jiaofang Palace, so naturally I didn't have time to come to Hanxiang Palace to visit Concubine Mei.

Concubine Mei, who does not have the support of her son, is she Xie Mingxi's opponent?

On this day, Xie Mingxi came to visit the patient as usual, and he was warm and concerned: "The mother's condition has improved slightly, but her complexion is not good, and she has lost a lot of weight. ”

Concubine Mei looked at Xie Mingxi, her thoughts fluctuated, she was speechless for a while, and only said after a while: "Queen, the mourning family has something to say to you alone." ”
