Chapter 2 Grounded

Pear Ling was grounded.

The news of Concubine Xi being grounded soon spread throughout the harem, after all, Concubine Xi is the person with the highest position in the harem concubine today, and she was suddenly grounded, which will inevitably make people talk about it.

The people in the harem are all 'fine', thinking of the fact that before Xi Guifei was grounded, she was 'strong' with a big belly and was announced by the emperor to go to the Hundred 'Flowers' Palace, so she naturally knew that Xi Guifei's grounding this time was related to Concubine Xiao, who had just given birth to a prince, and all along, Xi Guifei and Concubine Xiao were the two most favored in the harem, but on weekdays, Xi Guifei and Concubine Xiao rarely met, so there was no topic of discord, and this time Xi Guifei was grounded because of Concubine Xiao, so that the people in the harem smelled a trace of unusual taste.

Concubine Xi and Concubine Xiao are going to face each other?

What are the rumors outside, Liling is not interested, she just wants to give birth to the child in her belly peacefully, and she doesn't want to think about anything else for the time being.

Although Liling was not surprised, Zhihe, Lian 'Yu' and others were a little worried.

"The emperor is really right, how can he just listen to Concubine Xiao's words and ground the mother!" Even 'Jade' was a little indignant, thinking of the emperor's grace to his master on weekdays, he turned his face and didn't recognize anyone as soon as something happened, and even 'Jade' felt aggrieved for Pear Ling, but seeing Pear Ling's indifferent appearance, even 'Jade' felt distressed.

"The emperor is also something you can discuss!" Zhihe whispered and reprimanded Lian 'Yu'.

"This matter was originally unkind to the emperor...... "Ming 'Lu' pouted and looked uneven, but it was the emperor who was talking about it, so Ming 'Lu''s voice was low in the end.

"The emperor doesn't want to think about it, if our mother really wants to make a move on Concubine Xiao, why wait until Concubine Xiao gives birth to the prince? What's more, it's still such a clumsy trick! "Even 'Jade' snorted coldly.

"That's it! It's uncomfortable enough, let's stop talking about it! "Although Zhihe also agreed with Lian 'Jade', he couldn't say it clearly.

Even 'jade' and 'Ming'lu' pouted, and they didn't say more.

Although the pear girl was amusing and having fun in the room, the words of several palace 'women' were naturally heard, and the pear girl could not deny this.

Yes, the palace 'girl' around her understands things, how could Dong Qilin not understand it? If you understand, why should you ground?

Is it because the other party is Concubine Xiao?

Liling's heart ached, she didn't want to think about it these days, was she afraid of coming up with such an answer?

Li Ling knew clearly in her heart that if this matter was on the head of other concubines, Dong Qilin would definitely stand on her side, believing that she was innocent, after all, with her means, if she really wanted to deal with anyone, she would definitely not use such an inferior trick, and she would definitely do it cleanly, so that people could not find the handle.

But this thing was done by Concubine Xiao, so Dong Qilin stood on Concubine Xiao's side without hesitation.

Pear smiled wryly.

When she was pregnant with Qile, Concubine Xiao began to be favored, and she never touched Concubine Xiao, is it because she never had this idea? No, it's not that she didn't think about getting rid of Concubine Xiao, but she just had an intuition, and her intuition told her that if she and Concubine Xiao faced off, she would definitely lose, so all along, she kept her distance from Concubine Xiao, hoping that Concubine Xiao would also be more interesting, and the two would not interfere with the river water.

Unexpectedly, Concubine Xiao took the initiative this time, and used such a child's trick, but it was such a clumsy trick that made her grounded, it seems that Concubine Xiao is very confident in this!

Ri Ling thought, if she wasn't still pregnant with a child, would the result be worse than the grounding?

Li Ling clearly remembered the attitude of Dong Qilin when she said the last words to her that day, it was like an iceberg for ten thousand years, so cold that Li Ling almost thought that she and Dong Qi Lin were just strangers, not pillow people who had been with each other for many years.

He said: "You have thought about it in Moshang Palace!" ”

Thinking of Dong Qilin's indifference to her and her careful care for Concubine Xiao, Li Ling only felt that the love in the past was a joke, and sure enough, it was the most ruthless emperor's family, and the red face was broken before the old age!

Anyway, it's not like she hasn't experienced it before, hasn't she also come over?

It's just because in recent years, Dong Qilin has been too good to her, so she is used to his goodness, and now he suddenly turned his face and didn't recognize people, she just couldn't react a little, in fact, she didn't care too much, didn't she?

Li Ling remembered that the last time she was grounded was because of Xin Chongyi, and this time it was because of Concubine Xiao, both of whom lived in the Hundred 'Flowers' Palace, what a coincidence!

But......

Xin Chongyi, Concubine Xiao......

Why did she always feel that there was something similar between the two?

But where the specific similarity is, I can't say.

"Ming 'Lu', go and call Yang Yuan!" Pear Ling said to Ming 'Lu' outside the house.

It seems that it is necessary to investigate Concubine Xiao, Xin Chongyi's matter, she checked it a long time ago, and now the focus should be on investigating Concubine Xiao.

If it was before, maybe she would still be willing to be grounded like this, and then want to live like a transparent person in the palace, but not now, she has fun, and the second child who is about to be born, she can't sit still.

"Niangniang, Yi Zhaoyi asks to see." Dong Qilin only forbade Ri Ling's travel, and did not stop others from coming to see her.

Yu Lingluo? What is she doing here, she has been back to the palace for more than a month, and she has never seen her come to the palace, why is she grounded at this time, and when everyone avoids her, she came? Could it be that he came to send charcoal in the snow?

"Please come in!" Since Yi Zhaoyi didn't come to see her when she first returned to the palace, she must have come to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing.

The two haven't seen each other for more than a year, so it is natural for their son to say a few words of greeting.

"I haven't seen Sister Xi for more than a year, and Sister Xi treats Ling Luo a lot more politely." Yi Zhaoyi smiled bitterly.

Li Ling didn't make a sound, it's not that she is unfamiliar with Yi Zhaoyi, but that Yi Zhaoyi treats her as not as sincere as before, but she can also understand, after all, after experiencing that kind of thing, Yi Zhaoyi must have grown a lot, and what grows with Yi Zhaoyi is naturally the city government, and when a person is deep in the city, he will naturally treat others with less sincerity.

Seeing that Li Ling didn't speak, Yi Zhaoyi's smile became more and more bitter, and sure enough, when she came back, everything was already different.

"Ling Luo is no longer polite to her sister, Ling Luo came to find her sister today because she has an important thing to tell her sister." Yi Zhaoyi didn't say anything more to get closer to each other, and directly said her purpose, and then asked Liling to clean up the people present.

Seeing this, Zhihe took the initiative to retreat with Lian 'Yu', Ming 'Lu' and others.

"Say it!" Since Yi Zhaoyi said that it was an important matter, and she came to tell her at this time, presumably this matter should be very important to her.

"Sister, do you still remember how Xin Chongyi entered the palace in the first place?" Yi Zhaoyi asked Li Ling.

Li Ling nodded, she naturally remembered, Xin Chongyi was sent to the palace by Concubine An Guifei when she was pregnant to help her compete for favor, on the Mid-Autumn Festival in the fourth year of Tianping, the emperor took a fancy to Xin Chongyi at a glance, and then Xin Chongyi was on the rise, and she was very favored.

"Sister, don't you think Concubine Xiao's favor is very similar to Xin Chongyi?" They were all suddenly favored by the emperor, and then soared all the way, and the limelight was the same.

"You mean ......?" Although Ri Ling already had doubts in her heart, she was not sure.

"Not only that, but they also seem to look a little similar!" Yi Zhaoyi smiled slightly and continued to let out amazing words.

Li Ling took a deep breath, she was still thinking about where Concubine Xiao and Xin Chongyi seemed to be a little similar, and then Yi Zhaoyi told her, yes, because after Concubine Xiao came up, Xin Chongyi was a lot more low-key, so no one thought that the two of them looked a little similar for a while, after all, it was only a little similar, if the two didn't stand together, they really wouldn't feel like this.

Listening to Yi Zhaoyi say this at this time, Li Ling really felt that Xin Chongyi and Concubine Xiao did look a little similar!
