"Go down." Wang Chang was watching a few palace maids on the side, so he wanted to let them leave, but they were all people arranged by the concubines, and most of them didn't listen to her. ”

Several people looked at each other, and the honest man was not easy to provoke when he was in a hurry, so he promised Yuan to move the stool and then retreated, Yuan sat on the stool shallowly, lowered his head and said: "In the end, it is the palace of the West Sixth Palace, and my sister's room is more spacious and better than before." ”

Wang Changzai said: "The bigger the room, the colder it is, don't you feel cold when you sit?" ”

"All the way, it's hot."

"Yes, but why are you here?" Wang Chang is looking at Yuan, although she has given birth to a child, but she is still very immature when she is young, but when she looks in the mirror recently, she feels as if she has become old all of a sudden, probably because she can't see hope in her eyes, and desperate people look very bad.

Yuan promised that she had always wanted to come and see, but she didn't dare to go to the door of Qixiang Palace because of the concubines, and it was rare for them to gather in Ningshou Palace today, and Wang Changzai happened to not go, so she took advantage of the time to come.

Wang Changzai sneered: "Are you stupid, do you think that others don't know about it when you come like this?" ”

Yuan agreed: "I'm not afraid that others will know, but I heard that my sister is not doing well and wants to come and see." ”

"Actually, you want to come and see if I'm really having a bad time, and now you're satisfied?" Wang Chang said this indifferently, coughed a few times, and turned his eyes to the window, but the window was tightly closed, and there was no fresh air or sunlight.

"No, why should my sister think like this?" Yuan promised to speak without confidence, he was anxious and scared for a while, tears rolled down, and he choked up, "How can the days in the palace be so bitter?" ”

"The two of us, who had the different hearts first?" Wang Changzai's eyes condensed, and he coughed a few more times and asked Yuan, "It's not good now, are you satisfied?" ”

Yuan agreed to be anxious, and asked with a red face: "The emperor has always liked my sister more, but he doesn't like me very much, you are fine with us, and you only fell to this step after you left, speaking of which, is the emperor going to put my sister here, or are you going to leave me alone?" ”

Wang Changzai looked at her coldly: "What do you think? ”

Yuan promised to be speechless, silent with each other, and after a long time, Wang Changzai said weakly: "Is it also that I asked for the matter of using the cassia for me?" ”

"I don't have ......"

"I've never done anything to be sorry for you, who the emperor likes, it's not for me to control, but you hate me." Wang Changzai smiled very sadly, tears slowly fell, "I hate you too, I tried to let Concubine De Niangniang find out about this, but I didn't expect it to succeed once, I thought she would help me, and she would help me find out who harmed me, but she just silently changed the cassia I drank, and didn't do anything else." ”

"I don't know, I don't know anything." Yuan promised to shake his head vigorously, still unwilling to admit what he had done.

"It's up to you, it's boring to dwell on these now." Wang Chang coughed a few more times between his breaths, and said cowardly, "You have to take it easy, don't do anything that annoys the emperor, otherwise, even if he doesn't like you, it can also let you understand how the days in this palace are called hard, without his protection, you and I are destined to have nothing, if you want to live well, don't do much." ”

"Sister, I don't understand." Yuan promised to be confused, got up and sat directly on the edge of Wang Changzai's couch, grabbed her cold hand and said, "Sister, you teach me, how not to disgust the emperor, I'm afraid ......"

Wang Chang is looking at her cowardly appearance, she can't tell the truth from the false, she hates Yuan Promise for treating her like that, but she also knows that Yuan Promise's fate is no different from herself, she fell into the fate she has now, it is she who does not do her best to anger the emperor, everything is to blame, on the contrary, Yuan promised those tricks, which are not worth mentioning to her at all, only the emperor's punishment for her, ruthless and without leaving a trace.

She asked weakly, "The New Year is approaching, can you send a letter to your family?" ”

Yuan promised to shake his head, and Wang Changzai sighed: "Then there will never be any correspondence, if you want to live in the palace steadily, even if you are not liked or bullied, you will forget where you came from, forget everything at home, from now on, you are just the emperor's promise, nothing else." ”

"Why?" Yuan promised not to understand.

"If you ask why, you're going to end up like me, do you still want to ask?" Wang Changzai's eyes are sharp, which is completely different from the usual soft and gentle in front of people, whether her nature is so well hidden, or she has changed her nature by being tortured by concubines, and now the Wang family is really reborn.

When she left, the palace maid who was punished for kneeling was dragged over, and she was already kneeling so that she couldn't stand up on her legs, and she lay on the ground and cried, so scared that Yuan promised not to approach, but the palace maid cried: "Promise, save the slave and maid." As a result, he was slapped twice by the people in Qixiang Palace and dragged away.

Yuan promised to almost run out of Qixiang Palace, as if he had escaped from hell, and walked a long way in one breath before he stopped and covered his mouth and cried: "Why is this happening?" ”

The palace maid persuaded her not to cry on the road, she would be criticized and blamed, but Yuan promised that her legs were weak and she couldn't walk, and she was sobbing against the palace wall, and finally someone came in front of her, and the palace maid said anxiously: "This is bad." ”

The front took a soft sedan chair slowly, saw someone here, a eunuch ran to ask who it was, inquired clearly and then ran back to pray, then saw the warm sedan chair settled nearby, the gorgeously dressed Concubine Hui got down from the sedan chair, held the hand of the palace maid and walked over, and said: "It's a big holiday, what did Yuan promise to cry here?" ”

In Qixiang Palace, several palace maids cleaned up the tables, chairs, and tea sets, and said that there were not enough people in their mouths, and persuaded Wang Changzai not to bring guests to the house anymore, but they were too busy. They are all tricky and mean, and they don't treat Wang Changzai as their master, but Wang doesn't care at all, they say these things casually while hugging the quilt, and they take two bites when the medicine is given, and if no one serves the food and tea, she doesn't bother to care.

When the emperor put the letter in front of her that day, she thought that she was dead, but the emperor did not let her die, but sent her here to live a life that was worse than death.

It's because she's confused, it's because she can't do it, why don't you enjoy the emperor's liking for herself, An Ansheng has been in the palace for a lifetime, but she wants to help the family deliver the news, she doesn't understand at this moment, what did she think at the beginning.

The emperor said that he would not kill her, because he cherished his talents, Cao Yin and Li Xu were his ministers, and he couldn't give up talents for a woman, but they used Wang Chang to spy on the emperor's mind, which was a capital crime, and if the emperor did the Wang family, it would be equivalent to exposing their sins. And the Wang family is naturally beautiful and bookish, and the emperor likes it a little, so he is even more angry, naturally the death penalty can be avoided, and the living crime cannot be escaped.

Wang Changzai and Yuan agreed to understand that they were gifts from Lord Cao and Lord Li to the emperor, to put it bluntly, they were a few relatives with the royal family, so that they could gain more trust and interests from the emperor, they were chess pieces, and the chess pieces could only be at the mercy of others, how could anyone who played chess allow the chess pieces to betray themselves.

After the banquet in Ningshou Palace was dispersed that day, Lan Qi led the chattering children to leave, and the little ones were pestering to hug their mothers, she only had two hands to get busy, so the nobles of Juechan took the initiative to take the fourteenth elder brother and returned to Yonghe Palace with Lan Qi. But she didn't go in before the door, and came with just to remind Concubine De Niangniang: "The concubine heard that Yuan promised to leave the table halfway, and went to Qixiang Palace." ”

Lan Qi was immediately alert: "Concubine Hui also left the table early. ”

The noble man smiled knowingly: "It's good that Niangniang understands." After that, he took Xianghe away, Lan Qi frowned and thought about it, turned around and entered the door, called Huanchun to his side and said, "You go and inquire about how Wang Changzai is doing in Qixiang Palace." ”

Lan Qi didn't help other women please the emperor, and she wouldn't willingly push the emperor to favor anyone, that day for the sake of Concubine Yi, Xuan Ye didn't ask her to settle accounts afterwards, and she didn't want the same thing to happen again.

But when she calmed down, the emperor seemed to elevate the treatment of the Wang family and seemed to give grace, but in fact, he allowed her to be tortured by concubines in Qixiang Palace, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that the emperor had abandoned her. But the Wang family is the person brought back from Jiangnan by the Holy Driver, an insignificant woman who secretly maintains the delicate relationship between the emperor and the minister, so Lan Qi doesn't understand how the Wang family angered the emperor and can make Xuan Ye not even care about the most important things.

What's even more odious is that just when Wang Changzai and Yuan promised to be almost desperate, Concubine Hui really took advantage of the danger of people and waited for an opportunity, although Wang and Yuan had no support in the palace, but behind them was Jiangnan, the emperor couldn't let the Han people in Jiangnan chill, so he was destined not to really do anything to those two, but once they were used by Concubine Hui, even if they couldn't become a big thing, the small things that disturbed the heart were difficult enough.

Waiting for Huanchun to inquire carefully and tell the master about Wang Changzai's embarrassing situation, Lan Qi listened so tightly that she didn't understand whether Xuan Ye really didn't know, or did it on purpose. Huanchun timidly said what Liang Gonggong left that day, and cautiously said to the master: "According to Liang's father-in-law's meaning, it should be the emperor who deliberately sent Wang Changzai to let the concubine Niangniang toss, who in the palace of the concubine Niangniang's temper doesn't know, let's not talk about it at the beginning, if the emperor really likes it, why stuff Wang Changzai into Qixiang Palace." ”

Lan Qi thought that she had a bit of a gloating mentality at that time, and couldn't help but blame herself and feel guilty, and said solemnly at this moment: "No matter what, you can't torture people to death, if something really happens when you turn around, the emperor should be upset." Why didn't Mr. Liang say it earlier, there must be someone to persuade him in this matter. ”

Huanchun said anxiously: "The emperor is obviously angry to do this, master, do you want to say it?" In case you anger the emperor, it has nothing to do with you. ”

Lan Qi's heart was pounding, she remembered, Xuan Ye warned her, don't think you want to be someone else's savior.
