Chapter 274: Demotion

Concubine Xian was originally one of the four old concubines, and she was even earlier than Concubine Li. Because of Concubine Xian, she was born into the aristocratic Li family, and during the period of Empress Yang, she had a respected status. In addition, she gave birth to the second prince Xiao Xi, Xiao Xi not only became an adult, but also became the prince and became the king of Jin, and married the daughter of the Song family as the princess. Such an identity, such an honor, is unique in the harem. Even Concubine Li, who was born as a civilian, can't compare.

When Empress Yang was alive, she was able to fight with Empress Yang, and later, after Empress Yang died, she became the highest-ranking person in the harem, and even the emperor entrusted her to manage palace affairs and enforce the rights of the queen.

With such respect and such a status, I didn't expect that overnight, I was actually knocked down from the concubine position and became a small chongyi. What kind of status is Chongyi, there is no Zhaoyi, Baolin, and the cultivation position is high, that is, it is slightly higher than the nobles and official women. How can Concubine Li Xian, who is already over half a hundred years old, accept this?

Concubine Li Xian received the holy decree in her palatial Zhaoyang Palace. She didn't know at the moment that her son had become a living dead, and she was completely stunned.

The eunuch who came to deliver the will didn't want to talk nonsense with her, and said to the people in Zhaoyang Palace: "Li Chongyi is no longer a virtuous concubine, where is she worthy of living in a gorgeous palace like Zhaoyang Palace?" The emperor decreed that she should move to Yufangzhai to live, her status is low, and she doesn't need so many palace maids, eunuchs, and grandmothers to serve, and now those who read their names follow our family, and there are other allocations, and those who don't read it continue to stay and serve Li Chongyi, and hurry up to help Li Chongyi move. No delays. ”

Then the eunuch began to read the names one by one, and for a while, there was a wail in Zhaoyang Palace: "Niangniang, the slave doesn't want to leave you, Niangniang, save the slave?" "Niangniang, the slave is loyal to you, you hurry up and think about it, the slave doesn't want to leave you?"

Under the miserable howl of the eunuch and the palace maid, Concubine Xian finally woke up, this is not a dream, is it true? She is really going to fall from the high position of Concubine Xian, and she is going to become a little charger. Pitiful, because of her noble birth, she was already Baolin's identity when she entered the palace, where did she ever be a little charger?

Concubine Xian couldn't accept this fact, she saw the chaos in the palace, slapped the table, and shouted: "Bastard, this palace doesn't believe that the emperor will make such a will, it must be you slaves who are pretending to pass on the holy decree." Did you know that this is a capital offense? ”

The eunuch who took the lead smiled strangely and said: "Chongyi Niangniang, give the minions ten guts, and the minions don't dare to fake the holy decree?" Niangniang, have you been in the harem for more than 30 years, and you still can't understand the holy decree? Please see the decree for herself, and you will know whether it is true or false. ”

After speaking, the great eunuch personally handed over the holy decree to Concubine Li Xian, who was dressed gorgeously and solemnly. Concubine Li Xian took the holy decree with trembling hands, and read it carefully over and over again, the more she looked at it, the more sad she felt in her heart.

Concubine Li Xian muttered: "Impossible, impossible, this palace is a virtuous concubine, and the emperor still wants to invite this palace to be the queen." This palace gave birth to the virtuous concubine of King Jin. How could this palace be demoted to a full-fledged instrument? Is the charging instrument a mysterious bit? When the palace entered the palace, he had never been such a low-level concubine? There must be something wrong, does Xi'er know? Do the courtiers know? Does my Li family know? Didn't anyone advise the emperor? ”

The chief eunuch said with a smile: "Niangniang, the King of Jin you are looking for has also been decreed to be the King of Jianyang County. He is now seriously ill and staying in the palace. By the way, his palace was also taken back by the emperor. That's a prince's palace, how can he live as a county king? The capital will give him another mansion of the county king, of course, such a mansion, whether it is good or bad, he can't live in it. Because the emperor made a decree, he asked his family members to immediately set off to the fiefdom of Jianyang. Now, his mansion is busy, and I guess I don't have time to pay attention to you, mother. ”

The words of the great eunuch Yin and Yang suddenly stimulated Concubine Li Xian, and she stood up: "Impossible, how could Xi'er become the king of the county?" is still the king of Jianyang County, and besides, he is fine, how can he be seriously ill? I saw him before, why is he seriously ill today? What's wrong with this, no, the palace has to ask the emperor in person. ”

The chief eunuch said: "The slave persuaded Niangniang not to go, and now, the emperor is also sick, and he is raised in Concubine Li's palace, and he is not free to see you." ”

Concubine Li Xian gritted her teeth and said, "This palace understands, it's Concubine Li, isn't it Concubine Li's slut?" It must be Concubine Li's slut and her lowly son who didn't know what to say to the emperor, no, the palace must ask for clarity. ”

The chief eunuch of the Xuan Decree would not get used to her, so he immediately called a group of eunuchs with big shoulders and round waists and forcibly took Li Chongyi away, and the entire Zhaoyang Palace was in chaos.

In the palatial Zhaoyang Palace, because there was no one in charge, there was a sudden chaos. Most of the palace people were taken away and assigned to hard places such as the Huanyi Bureau, and these people naturally screamed and wailed. Many of the precious things in Zhaoyang Palace have also been touched away.

The invincible Concubine Li Xian, and now Li Chongyi was even more framed by some lowly eunuchs, forcibly dragged out of the palace, through the entire harem, and arrived at the remote and simple Yufangzhai, and threw it to the ground. Li Chongyi's half-life has gone.

Soon, everyone in the harem knew about it.

Qu Zhaoyi was watching the nurse feed the five princes with supplementary food, and when she heard the news, she returned to the main hall and laughed: "Great, Concubine Xian Niangniang has fallen." This is good, in the future, no one can threaten me, and no one can take the five princes away from me. ”

She has taken refuge in Concubine Xian for so many years, but Concubine Xian is not easy to serve, she is greedy and vicious, and she has always asked Qu Zhaoyi to do things, and she has always let Qu Zhaoyi stick to her own pocket. Not to mention, Concubine Xian often threatens her with the five princes, and she wants to give the five princes to other concubines to raise at every turn, and Qu Zhaoyi obeys her. Now, Concubine Xian's Daotai, the mountain on Qu Zhaoyi's head, has finally fallen, can she be happy?

However, the big palace maid beside her was busy persuading: "Niangniang, now is not the time to be happy. Concubine Xian Niangniang is a Taoist. Hearing the news, the emperor was very disgusted with her. She should have been implicated by the King of Jianyang County. This time I guess I won't be able to get up. Niangniang is no Mount Tai to the top, but there is also no backer. In the palace, who doesn't know that you are the person of the virtuous concubine? Without Concubine Xian Niangniang to take care of us, how can we be the opponents of Wan Zhaoyi and Concubine Li? The mother's top priority is to find a backer as soon as possible? ”
