Looking at the desire to survive in Baoqin's eyes, Hongyan did not have the pride that she could save the world, she herself was not trying to survive. Back then, she was just a humble little promise, and Concubine Chun was going to force her to death, but there was no conclusive evidence, or there was evidence but the emperor didn't want to mention it again, so she let go of Concubine Chun's sins back then, but let her stretch out her poisonous hand to herself again and again.

"Baoqin, let me ask you, was it a pure concubine when I bumped into Prince He and I had a private meeting in the Internal Affairs Mansion?" Hongyan's expression was solemn, after all, Baoqin was a person who had been with Concubine Chun for more than ten years, Hongyan couldn't be so confident, but even if she put it back, she was betrayed by Baoqin, Hongyan also wanted to figure out something at this moment, she asked again, "Concubine Chun committed suicide by swallowing gold in front of the Queen Mother that day to prove her innocence, if she did it, how could she have such courage?" ”

Baoqin replied in a panic: "It's what the concubine did, everything was arranged by the slave maid, and from that time on, she couldn't go back." Over the years, there have been many big and small things, she has become more and more ruthless, the slave and the maid are more and more afraid, and the mother and maid feel that the slave and the maid are timid, and some things have not been done recently. As for swallowing gold and committing suicide, Concubine Ling, you also saw it, she didn't die, and the only people who knew those things were the concubine and the slave, the gust of wind was originally passed on by herself, how could others think about Xianfu Palace in a dignified manner, she has always been so lonely and cold. ”

Hongyan looked at every inch of Baoqin's eyes, and she put Baoqin back to Chun Guifei, which was the biggest bet, once Baoqin betrayed her, Hongyan would be in a passive place, and Chun Guifei would definitely retaliate in frenzy.

"Hugqin, the illness of the seventh elder brother, the illness of the eighth elder brother and the little princess......" Hongyan left her seat, got up and squatted in front of Baoqin, and asked heavily, "What's going on?" ”

With tears in her eyes, Baoqin shook her head and said, "The slave doesn't know, the slave really doesn't know." ”

Hongyan said ruthlessly: "You don't know, but I know, you don't understand, even if you don't do anything, once I deliver those evidences to the emperor, the pure concubine will be in trouble with the nine clans, and everyone in Xianfu Palace will die." ”

Baoqin hurriedly said: "It was Madame who did it, the slave didn't do anything, Niangniang, you believe in the slave maid, she ...... anything about that matter."

Hongyan was unmoved: "But you know, do you know that Madame did it?" ”

Baoqin was already in tears, and cried: "The slave and maid overheard, it was Mrs. She covered the rouge bought by Concubine Jia with the clothes of a dead man for a few days, and she wanted to harm Concubine Jia and the fourth elder brother and the eighth elder brother, but who knew that Concubine Jia had nothing to do, but she killed the seventh elder brother." ”

"The seventh elder brother is smallpox, and the eighth elder brother and the little princess are chickenpox." Hongyan said, "All from those boxes of rouge?" ”

"This slave and maid don't know, the slave and maid only know that in those days, the concubine asked the third elder brother and the sixth elder brother to wash their hands and change their clothes every day, and she also said that the third elder brother was not afraid of chickenpox, and she had to take good care of the sixth elder brother and not let him go out." Baoqin said everything she knew, suddenly realized something, and wiped away her tears desperately, as if she was afraid that if she went back like this, her tearful face would make Concubine Chun suspicious.

"She knows it's chickenpox?" Hongyan frowned, recalling that Ruyin said that Fu Heng found out, the palace maid in Ningshou Palace who died of smallpox, and someone in the family also died of smallpox, chickenpox must have been sent to the palace by a pure concubine, but smallpox may not be. But Liyun, who was the first to come into contact with those rouge gouaches, died of malaria, which shows that there is a possibility of contracting various diseases, and the smallpox of the seventh elder brother may also come from there, and the palace maid happened to also have smallpox at that time.

However, all this is not the result that Hongyan wants, this should be the emperor's explanation to the queen and the seventh elder brother, Hongyan doesn't understand why he hasn't taken any action so far, but Hongyan can't let the pure concubine bully her again and again. But she also firmly remembered the words of Concubine Shouqi, the emperor would not like a woman who was too shrewd, she could not put her thoughts and calculations in front of the emperor, even if she had all the human and material evidence, she had to be sent to the emperor by others.

"Don't wipe your tears, you have been a master and servant for more than ten years, and Concubine Chun can see what's wrong with you at a glance." Hongyan said, "Hug Qin, I don't plan to make Concubine Chun bear the notoriety or even take her life, she is the biological mother of the little princess, she can't be the glory of the princess, and she must not affect the princess's life." But I have the result I want, after the matter is completed, how can Concubine Chun have nothing to do with you, I can take Qianya from Changchun Palace, and I can also send you out of the Forbidden City. Whether Ruizhu beside Emperor Huixian's concubine hanged herself or not, you all know in your hearts. ”

Baoqin kowtowed again and again: "Concubine Ling, please give the slave a way to live, the slave is willing to leave the palace, even if she is a nun at home, it is better than continuing to do evil for her by her side, she doesn't even care about the Bodhisattva......"

Seeing that Baoqin was anxious to cry again, Hongyan knew that even if Cherry avoided her ears and eyes and brought her, her red and swollen eyes could not escape the questioning of the pure concubine. Since she is determined to do it, she must do things beautifully, maybe without the pure concubine as a hindrance, her relationship with the queen mother can be turned, this woman is really not worthy of the title given to her by the emperor. And she raised the third elder brother, who can ridicule her biological mother in front of others as the son of an abandoned woman, and what kind of conduct and behavior of the pure concubine herself is confirmed in the child's body.

On this day, the Queen Mother and the concubines chanted the scriptures, the imperial concubine and the pure concubine supported the Queen Mother out of the Buddhist hall on the left and right, and Concubine Jia was punished and grounded because of the rumors that the emperor and Nalan Ruyin were ambiguous for their crimes, and they didn't know when they could come out again.

Hongyan and several other inconvenient concubines stepped forward to salute and said hard, the queen mother really couldn't get used to Hongyan, and said coldly: "Serving the emperor so diligently on weekdays, serving the Buddha but with many excuses is not good, if you want the Buddha to bless, you must be sincere." ”

A group of concubines who failed to enter the Buddhist hall are in this sentence, Hongyan can't do much to take it alone, she quietly retreated to the side and asked the queen mother to get up, the imperial concubine and the pure concubine waited and walked slowly, Concubine Yu handed Hongyan a relieved gaze, Hongyan's heart was naturally warm, and she seemed to see the queen mother leave, but in fact, her eyes fell on the hugqin behind the pure concubine, whether the next thing can be done, it depends on what the hugqin does.

After everyone dispersed, Cherry dared to ask the master: "Is it reliable to hold the qin, will she turn around and betray you." ”

Hongyan smiled faintly: "I'm afraid she won't dare to say it." ”

Sure enough, as Hongyan and Baoqin expected, Baoqin's crying eyes could not escape the sharp gaze of the pure concubine, and when she returned to Kyushu, Qingyan and the pure concubine asked the other palace maids who accompanied her, and learned that Baoqin was not outside the Buddhist hall for a while, but she didn't know where she went, and she didn't know who she saw. When I accompanied the Queen Mother to worship the Buddha, where did you go? ”

Huqin fell soft on his knees, knelt down and said: "Master Shengming, the slave was called away by Concubine Ling." ”

"Concubine Ling?"

"Concubine Ling promised the slave maid benefits, let the slave maid do things for her, let the slave maid tell her about you, and let the slave and maid monitor you from now on." Baoqin said, "But the slave didn't agree, the slave was born as your person, and death was your ghost, how could I betray you." ”

Concubine Chun was also stunned when she heard such words at first glance, she almost couldn't believe that Wei Hongyan could do such a thing, isn't she the kindest and most generous person, can't she endure everything that can't be tolerated? She would even take the initiative to attack herself?

"Master, we must be careful." Baoqin pleaded, "It seems that the matter between the emperor and Fucha Fujin stimulated her, making the concubine look very impetuous." ”

"What does Fucha Fujin and the emperor's affairs have to do with me, does she think I arranged it?" Concubine Chun glared at Baoqin incredulously, "What's the matter, didn't she arrange the matter of Fucha Fujin and the emperor herself?" I thought she was going to use that little beauty to please the emperor. ”

"The slave maid doesn't know, but Concubine Ling repeatedly asked the slave maid if you arranged it, it seems that compared to the rumors of herself and Lord Fucha, this matter poked her sore spot even more." Baoqin said nervously, "Niangniang, let's be prepared." ”

Concubine Chun sneered as if she had gained some benefit: "It's not what we did, what is there to prepare, she was poked in the sore spot, betrayed by her best sister, how did she forget herself, how did she betray the queen?" People gather like each other, and neither she nor Nalan Ruyin are good things. ”

But when I looked down and saw Baoqin's cowardly appearance, I thought of the pure concubine who said that she had promised the concubine a benefit, and she no longer trusted Baoqin very much, and the idea of abandoning it was really born at this moment. No matter how Baoqin promised her life and death allegiance, such a person can no longer be used, Concubine Chun didn't want to keep Baoqin anymore, and now it is a good opportunity, and Concubine Ling took the initiative to send it to the door.

"Since Concubine Ling promised you benefits, I don't know if you are sincere now." Concubine Chun looked coldly at this person who had been with her for more than ten or twenty years, and said without any thoughts, "If you want me to sit back and relax, you can only let Concubine Ling disappear, and design to frame her again and again, but she didn't let the Queen Mother get rid of her, it can be seen that she will never disappear if she is a killer." ”

Baoqin looked at his master in a panic, and asked tremblingly, "Niangniang, what do you want to do?" ”

Concubine Chun said: "It's better for me to maybe you have a benefit, Huqin, as long as you help me get rid of Concubine Ling, I will be the master to send you out of the palace, I know you don't want to stay in the Forbidden City for a long time, right?" I don't know what kind of benefits Concubine Ling promised you, but for you, there is no greater temptation than leaving the palace at the end of the year. Whether you believe in Wei Hongyan or me, you choose. ”
