Chapter 15: The Consequences
The red wall is high, the city tower is towering, and the corner of the palace flies eaves.
The imperial city is not dry, but the bones are dry.
Throughout the ages, how many women have been buried in this huge prison. Pei Qinghe also died in this imperial city in his previous life.
Walking within the palace walls again, he is already in a different world.
The Fengyi Hall where Concubine Rong lived was not far from Zhanghuatai, and halfway through the journey, Pei Qinghe suddenly stopped.
Suoqin, who was leading the way in front, turned around for some reason, Pei Qinghe didn't look at her, and only said to Chunyue: "Chunyue, my handkerchief seems to have been lost in the hall, you go and find it for me." ”
Chunyue nodded: "Yes." ”
Suoqin watched Chunyue turn back, and just wanted to ask, but was interrupted by Pei Qinghe, "The county lord is here waiting for my maid to come back, you go and help the county lord prepare the clothes first." ”
Suoqin hesitated and said, "The slave and maid are waiting here with the county lord." ”
Pei Qinghe swept over with an impatient look and asked her: "You will do whatever the county lord says!" Do you know what will happen if you offend the lord of this county? ”
Is this arrogant?
Arrogance is normal, and the more arrogant she is, the more relieved her emperor uncle will be.
After listening to Pei Qinghe's words, Suoqin gritted his teeth and turned to leave.
Pei Qinghe took a deep breath and stood under the palace wall waiting for Chunyue to come back.
She had thought of many possibilities for Nie Guiren's fragrant jade death, and combined with the pickling methods she had seen in the palace in her previous life, she quickly locked in one possibility.
Adultery.
The methods commonly used by harem concubines are to slander people's innocence and make people unspeakable.
Nie Guiren died so strangely in her previous life, she was afraid that she would fold on top of it, so she designed the palace and supported Chunyue, so that Chunyue could find out.
I hope that the things she told Chunyue will be remembered clearly.
-
After waiting for a long time, Pei Qinghe waited until the spring moon returned.
When Chunyue approached and handed the handkerchief on her head, she lowered her voice and asked Chunyue, "How is it?" ”
Chunyue replied: "As the county lord expected, when the slave maid arrived, Nie Guiren was already drugged, and after the slave and maid handed over the county lord's letter to Nie Guiren to read, she forced herself to go to Xuande Palace. ”
Pei Qinghe nodded, "Did the letter burn?" ”
Harutsuki: "Burned." ”
"That'll be fine."
Nie Guiren went to Xuande Palace? Kind of a smart guy.
I hope that after this disaster, the noble man Nie can let go of the past and concentrate on being her concubine.
If you can cause more trouble for Concubine Rong, it will not be in vain to save her once today.
"By the way, ...... the people guarding outside?"
"Following the orders of the county lord, the slave pushed her in, presumably at this time, the man who was originally knocked unconscious by the slave and maid had also woken up."
Pei Qinghe smiled and nodded, "It's good, it's just right, it's almost time, let's go, let's go and see how Concubine Rong ends." ”
-
On the other side, Concubine Rong couldn't get the news from her henchmen for a long time, and she was very uneasy, but her dowry maid said at this time: "Niangniang, now that the flowers in the Frost Lu Pavilion are blooming just right, Niangniang might as well take the young ladies to watch." ”
Concubine Rong thought that there shouldn't be any problems with her plan, so she didn't think much about it, got up and said, "It just so happens that the palace is also tired, so let's go." ”
The frost reed pavilion is in the imperial garden, separated from the wall of Zhanghuatai.
As soon as Concubine Rong and everyone entered the door of the Frost Reed Pavilion, she heard a heart-pounding sound from nowhere.
"What sound?"
Concubine Rong's dowry maid walked out, "Niangniang, it seems that someone has corrupted the style of the court." ”
Concubine Rong listened to the voice in this hall and seemed to be a little wrong.
But now that she has come to this point, so many pairs of eyes are watching, she can only stubbornly say: "Presumably it must be a palace maid who doesn't know the rules, go and find out for this palace!" ”
"Yes."
Concubine Rong's wedding maid took the person to the main hall of the Frost Lu Pavilion, and without taking a few steps, she picked out a handkerchief from the flowers on the side, and deliberately shouted: "Ah, isn't this Nie Guiren's handkerchief?" ”
When Pei Qinghe arrived, the person who happened to bump into Concubine Rong broke in.
Then there was a woman's scream, followed by an angry shout: "Drag the dog man and woman out." ”
Pei Qinghe looked at this scene and shook his head disapprovingly.
Jealousy makes people get carried away.
In front of a group of official women, Concubine Rong really didn't care about the royal face at all.
A man and a woman, who were almost naked, were quickly dragged out, and the woman crawled to Concubine Rong's feet on her knees, "Niangniang forgive your sins!" ”
The woman's hair was in a disheveled bun, and she couldn't see her face clearly.
Pei Qinghe thought, no wonder Concubine Rong's people didn't recognize that this was not Nie Guiren.
She stood in the distance, silently admiring the show.
Concubine Rong also realized at this time that the person in front of her was not Nie Guiren, she took a closer look, and after seeing the woman's face clearly, she suddenly lost her voice and said, "Why are you?" ”
Pei Qinghe sighed.
Concubine Rong is really stupid.
Concubine Rong also lost her words at this moment, her face was blue and white for a while, she didn't speak for a long time, and finally said a complete sentence in a trembling voice: "You, as a person in the palace, actually did such a filthy thing, come and bring her back to the palace and wait for the palace rules to deal with it." ”
It's not stupid, I know to bring it back to my palace first.
After the play is over, there is nothing to watch, and the remaining revenge needs to be avenged slowly by Nie Guiren himself.
Pei Qinghe turned around and wanted to leave, but saw the silver-haired eunuch leader Mo Gonggong coming with a holy decree in his hand.
"Wait!" Gonggong Mo stopped everyone, "The emperor has an order-"
Together with Concubine Rong, the front of the Frost Lu Pavilion suddenly knelt in the dark.
"The Nie family has a daughter, Shushen and Huiya, handsome and solemn, Yi Si Chunmao, serve me and be honored, and this special book is Nie Concubine. And Concubine Rong has been thinking too much recently, her body is sick, and she may not be able to deal with the affairs of the harem. ”
Pei Qinghe didn't have to kneel, she couldn't wait to applaud after listening to the last sentence of the holy decree.
Presumably, at this time, Nie Guiren's medicinal properties have been resolved.
In the letter, she instructed Nie Guiren to tell the Holy Lord about this when necessary, so as to seek the Holy Lord's mercy. But there's one thing, don't mention her.
I think Nie Guiren did it.
It's just a pity that he only took away Concubine Rong's rights, and did not order Concubine Rong to return the phoenix seal.
But even so, for Concubine Rong, this is also a great blow.
Pei Qinghe looked at the pale Concubine Rong, and his heart was extremely happy.
"Concubine Rong, Your Majesty instructs you to take good care of your body." Gonggong Mo left an ambiguous sentence and went back to the Xuande Hall to wait.
People who don't know are thinking that there are really many ears and eyes in the palace, and as soon as it happened, the saint will know about it.
Can...... If it's just a punishment, Concubine Rong doesn't teach her subordinates well, forget it-
At this juncture, he was promoted to the position of Nie Guiren.
Coupled with Concubine Rong's gaffe words, the spirits present quickly reacted to what was going on today.
I'm afraid that Concubine Rong wants to get rid of the new favorite of the saint, but she doesn't know what went wrong, she fell short, and she lost the right to be in charge of the harem.
