Chapter 193: The Concubine

Liao Rongyu and Xin Wei waited outside the Fengling Hall for a long time before the door of the palace was slowly opened.

Bingling and Qingli came out of it, and they only saw these two leading their respective palace maids waiting for a long time, and they couldn't help but feel bitter.

"Concubine Lao Liao and Xinmei have been waiting for a long time." Bingling saluted the two of them, his face a little gloomy.

"What's wrong with the queen's phoenix body?" Liao Rongyu's face was a little cold, and his tone was also full of a chill: "I heard that the previous matter has been investigated, and it is not about the queen's mother at all, but those concubines still worship high and low, and they are not even willing to go to the door of Fengling Palace...... Look at me, what are you talking about? ”

Liao Rongyu sighed faintly, and turned to a smiling face: "I specially brought a few handkerchiefs embroidered by myself and some snacks to give to Niangniang." ”

"Niangniang is drinking tea inside, please let the two little masters come in and talk." Bingling didn't say much, glanced at Qing Li, and led the two in.

Qingli summoned the Ming and Qing dynasties, picked people to guard the Fengling Palace, took out the majesty of the main palace, and turned around to the Qingxuan Palace. Even if the master is not in a hurry to give the queen an explanation, she can't just let Yin Li go. Thinking of this, the steps under my feet were extremely fast, and I ran with the wind.

In the inner room, the fragrance of tea dispelled a lot of sorrow, and a small sip was refreshing.

"The tea here is really different." Liao Rongyu tried not to show worry, and the queen of the province looked uncomfortable.

"It's just plain green tea." Cen Mu replied with a gentle smile: "This palace is slightly bitter when you drink it, but you can also get rid of some heart fire." ”

Xin Wei didn't know how to speak, and when she heard the queen say the word "heartfire", she slowly raised her head and frowned: "The concubine has seen that one, and I heard that it is the sweetheart that the emperor lost back then." Queen Mother, is that really the case? ”

"Yes." Cen Mooning nodded generously.

"How is this possible!" Xin Wei couldn't help but stand up excitedly, and the whole person trembled uncontrollably: "The reason why the concubine was sent to the Ruiming Mansion is because that person is gone. So many women were sent to the Ruiming Palace, but they also wanted to fill the vacancy around the emperor after she was away. But this person can still come back...... How is this possible. The concubines and the women who were sent to the emperor were not in vain. ”

"Not only you, but even the emperor never thought that one day, she would be able to come back." Cen Muning saw her so excited, and she was only relieved: "But you are you, she is her, no matter why you came to the emperor's side in the first place, now you have your own place, whether she comes back or not, you are still you." ”

Xin Wei nodded slightly, but her face was still full of fear: "Even the concubines can't bear it like this, I don't know how the concubine will feel." ”

"It is expected that Concubine Ying should be the first person to see her." Cen Mooning said nonchalantly: "She is the Queen Mother's person, and Concubine Ying has always been by the Queen Mother's side." She broke free from the constraints of the Queen Mother and entered the palace, and she was bound to meet the Queen Mother. Concubine Ying must have seen her too. ”

"Yes." Liao Rongyu nodded and agreed: "Concubine Ying has become more and more calm these days, and she has been guarding the Fengluan Hall all day long, not necessarily under her influence." ”

"Queen Mother...... Ming and Qing walked in quickly, knelt down and saluted Cen Muning: "The emperor will tell Liang Bao to tell the harem." Give mercy to the concubine to enter the Weiyang Palace. ”

"What kind of pity concubine, is there such a person in the palace?" Liao Rongyu knew who Ming Qing was talking about, but he still asked with a stiff face. "What else is Weiyang Palace? There are so many palaces in the harem, how can there be a Weiyang Palace? ”

"Go back to Concubine Liao, take pity on the concubine, it is pity, and it is the one who the emperor has taken back to the Qingxuan Palace." Ming Qing drooped his head and said unhappily: "As for Weiyang Palace, it is next to the larger palace of Qingxuan Palace, and the emperor ordered someone to make a new plaque and named it Weiyang." ”

"Got it." Cen Mu Ning waved his hand, his face calm.

"The queen's mother, this ......" Liao Rongyu couldn't help but be angry: "What kind of pity is it, and it is Weiyang, the emperor is clearly ......"

"Unfinished, unfinished, unfinished...... the corners of Xinwei's lips curled, and tears fell from the corners of his eyes while speaking: "Pity the concubine, the emperor is telling the concubines in the harem that he has unfinished pity for the concubine, and this pity will be endured for a long time." ”

"Pity ......" Cen Mu listened to these two words, which seemed to be the style of the queen mother's name. She stared at her eyes and smiled, and her tone was melodious: "Since the emperor has an idea, there will be nothing wrong with this palace and the two sisters as long as they follow the order." ”

"But what is the identity of that woman, the emperor doesn't mention it. Also, in the previous case of framing the queen's mother, the emperor only let Yin Li catch the so-called murderer and hand him over to atone for the crime, without giving any explanation to the mother. Does the emperor think that the old ministers of this Manchu dynasty are all blind and deaf? Or does the emperor regard everyone in this world as a fool, and only thinks that he is the smartest! ”

"Woe comes from the mouth." Cen Muning frowned and glanced at Liao Rongyu: "Concubine Liao is in the position of a concubine, and her words and deeds must be more appropriate." ”

Liao Rongyu hurriedly got up and saluted the queen: "What Niangniang said is very true, and the concubine is confused. ”

"Get up." Cen Muning saw that her face was full of tears, and she couldn't help but shake her head: "You don't have to be so sad, some things have been doomed many years ago." ”

"That's what the mother said." Liao Rongyu handed the silk in his hand to Xin Wei, and said movingly: "What a precious thing it is to lose and regain it." It is difficult for anyone to resist such temptations. ”

"But......" Xinwei frowned and asked puzzledly: "Since she is not dead, she has always been alive, why didn't she return to the emperor early?" ”

Xin Wei couldn't understand this dilemma. If she had come back that year, wouldn't she and the women who had been sent to the Ruiming Mansion have no need to go through all kinds of training, and they wouldn't have to squeeze their heads to smile at that indifferent man? Perhaps their fate will be rewritten. It's just that she's only showing up now, it's too late, and nothing can be changed.

"Queen Mother......" Ming and Qing dynasties went and returned, and this time her face was even more ugly.

"What's going on in a panic?" Bingling had to ask: "The sky can't fall again." ”

"The concubine is asking to see her outside the palace gate." Ming Qing was a little unconfident in what he said, he was afraid that the queen would lose her temper.

"She's coming......" Xin Wei shuddered and stood up suddenly. She's coming......"

That kind of fear is like saying that the wolf is coming.

Cen Muning couldn't help frowning: "Now that you and her are under the same eaves, isn't it normal for her to come?" What is there to be surprised at. ”

This time we met, and it must be different from revealing her identity that day.

Cen Muning thought so, so she glanced at Bingling: "Go and welcome the concubine in." ”

"Yes." Bingling settled down and retreated with Ming and Qing.

"Xinmeiren, there are still many opportunities to meet in the future. You can't lose the first time. Cen Muning had to remind her.

"The concubine understands." Xin Wei wiped the tears from her face and took a deep breath to calm herself.

After a while, a woman dressed in luxurious clothes slowly walked into the inner sanctum.

"Concubine Cang, please say hello to the queen."

When Cang Lian saluted, the smile on the corner of his lips was very bright, especially when he saw Cen Muning, it seemed that in addition to pride, happiness burst out of his eyes, and he wanted to appear radiantly and compare others to others.

"The concubine is here to greet the queen. I've just been canonized, and I always have to come here. What's more, the mother has also lifted the grounding, and it is safest to meet at this time. When Cang Lian spoke, her eyes swept over the two people who saluted her, and she couldn't help but wonder: "Who are these two sisters?" ”

Liao Rongyu settled down and said, "Concubine Jin came to the Liao family in the palace and saw the concubine Niangniang." ”

"The concubine Liu Yin is beautiful and happy, and she has seen the concubine."

They opened their mouths one after the other.

Cang Lian smiled slightly: "Xinmei is the maid sent by the Queen Mother to the Ruiming Palace, right?" ”

These words pierced his heart, and Xinxi's face alternated red and white for a while. "Yes." She bit her lip, but nodded reluctantly.

"That's right." Cang Pian smiled faintly: "The Queen Mother's vision is probably like this. The names are similar. ”

Cen Muning kept looking at Cang Lian and was silent. Seriously, she was born very beautiful, and although Ruan looked like her, she was never as bright as her. With a smile and a smile, it is smart and charming, and it is flattering.

"If the two sisters have nothing to do, this palace wants to talk to the queen mother alone." Cang Lian's words changed sharply, and he gave the queen an eviction order.

Although Liao Rongyu was dissatisfied, she did not refute: "The concubine retired first." ”

She pushed Xinwei on the side, and the two of them saluted together.

"The queen is really good-natured, any kind of person can stay in this harem." Cang Lian's tone was full of disgust: "I guess the emperor won't be able to go to these two palaces for a year and a half, right?" Especially the maid who was sent to the palace by the Queen Mother, such a despicable person, can still be crowned a beauty in front of her eyes, doesn't the queen feel disgusted? ”

Cen Mooning picked up the teacup, but she couldn't send it to her mouth with a smile.

Bingling hurriedly took the teacup from her hand to prevent the hot water from burning her delicate skin. "Mother, beware of the water being too hot."

"Oh, I didn't expect Concubine Pian to tell jokes like this." Cen Muning laughed for a while before she reluctantly stopped: "Let my sister see and laugh." ”

Cang Lian looked at her a little strangely: "What makes Niang Niang feel so funny?" ”

"Aren't you also the maid that the Queen Mother sent to the emperor?" Cen Mooning covered her mouth and nose with her hands, smiling: "Why did you canonize the concubine and forget your origin?" ”

"Is the queen making fun of her concubines?" Cang Lian's face was strained, and her voice was cold.

"What do you say?" Cen Mu Ning Rao smiled, his eyes full of frost: "It's hard for you to say this so noblely, in fact, you have to laugh at them for not having grace, in terms of background, there is no difference at all." ”

"Hmph." Cang Lian said coldly: "Then I'm really different from them!" ”

"That's right." Cen Muning nodded approvingly: "They have been sent to the emperor since the beginning, and they have never been touched by others. You are different concubines, when you are by Chu Peiyuan's side, you are called Qu Yu, when you serve King Ruiming, you are called Zi Xuan, and when you hide in the outer house to avoid the queen mother's eyeliner, you are called a pity, and now you have just been canonized as a concubine, and you are called mercy again. Gee...... It reminds me of a poem. ”

"Queen Mother!" A thin layer of anger was stained in Cang Lian's eyes.

"A pair of jade arms and thousands of pillows, half a little red lips and ten thousand people, so romantic." Cen Mu Ning had a cold and hard light in his eyes: "Looking around the entire harem, you are the most ridiculous one, and it is not your turn to make fun of others." No matter how humble they are, they are cleaner than you. Chu Peiyuan is damned, because he is the one who completely remembers your past, just ask what king in the world is willing to share his favorite woman with his courtiers? That's why you killed him! ”
