After explaining a few things that needed to be investigated, Li Qingyi got into the quilt and planned to sleep, and she would enter the palace early tomorrow morning to meet the queen and tell the queen about the Zhenbei Palace. By the way, I asked Princess An Cheng what to do about Helian Rong, the fifth prince of Chongnan.

Helian Rong was originally a trick thrown by the female national teacher of Chongnan, but at this time, the war has been put on the surface, and his current situation can be described as very embarrassing, neither to leave nor to stay. Asking to marry the princess is even more fantastical, and even the queen daughter he brought, the first beauty in Chongnan, the woman named Xuanyuan, was also exposed because of the conspiracy of the female national teacher, and she couldn't marry the ninth prince.

After Li Qingyi met with Princess An Cheng last time to discuss, he wanted to win Helian Rong over to help Dajing deal with the Chongnan female national teacher, but the plan could not catch up with the rapid changes. It was too much time to secretly scrub and woo, and they had to put their purpose directly on the surface to talk to Helian Rong. ap.

But even if Helian Rong has no right to speak in Chongnan, the foundation is there, and if he cooperates with them, if he is not good, he will be crowned as a collaborator and traitor by the female national teacher, and he may not agree.

After thinking about it, Li Qingyi fell asleep at some point.

On the second day, she got up early to freshen up and eat, said a word to her second uncle and aunt, and then set off for the palace.

Chang Yan was sent by her to investigate the life experience of Princess Zhenbei, and she was followed by Xiang Lan and Changning.

Today is a good day, and the sun shines on the colorful glazed tiles of the palace.

Li Qingyi came here in time.

When she arrived at Yikun Palace, the palace concubines who came to the queen's mother in the morning and dusk province happened to disperse, and only the two of them grinded and quarreled all the way out of Yikun Palace.

One of the two wears blue and purple, and the other wears goose yellow, both of them are thousands of miles away, and the butterflies on the skirt fly with their movements, as if they want to float out, three thousand green silk like a waterfall pouring, gently holding it around the waist with colored silk. Standing in pairs, it is as beautiful as a picture.

It's a pity that the words of the two beauties with guns and sticks in their mouths ruined the scene.

The concubine wearing a goose yellow palace skirt spoke: "Alas, the girl who served the Seventh Prince had a sudden illness yesterday, and she had been with the Seventh Prince for so many days, pitiful ......

With a sigh, she tilted her head slightly and said to the palace maid behind her, "When her old son comes to collect the bones, remember to reward a few more taels of silver."

When Li Qingyi heard the words "Seven Princes", he knew who this goose yellow palace concubine was.

Mu Guifei fell, there are not many people involved, Concubine Hui is one of them, the eleventh princess she gave birth to is already the age to be married, and she has her own palace in the palace, but the seventh prince is still young and needs to be taken care of, so the emperor will temporarily hand him over to the concubine who has no heirs to raise.

Concubine Li got the seventh prince and became Concubine Li.

She is one of the few concubines who can enter the emperor's eyes in the past two years, in the past, Mu Guifei strongly pressed the harem concubines, and she didn't dare to be too prominent, now Mu Guifei is a yellow flower of tomorrow, and the emperor handed over the seven princes to her to take care of.

As the position grows, the arrogance will naturally grow.

At this time, when she mentioned the Seven Princes, she actually wanted to show off to Concubine Yun beside her that she was valued by the emperor.

However, Concubine Yun, who was dressed in a purple palace costume and was also a newcomer, looked disdainful, and even the peach blossom makeup on her forehead seemed to pout.

"My sister is really warm-hearted, but isn't Yuxiang Palace not very good in feng shui? Since the Seventh Prince lived in Yuxiang Palace, the palace people around him are almost dead! There are also good nobles who lived in Yuxiang Palace at the beginning, but they have two lives...... My sister should be careful, this palace maid is good to say, the left and right are only cheap, if the prince is unlucky in Yuxiang Palace, my sister can't afford it!"

Concubine Li immediately raised her eyebrows when she heard this.

Originally, the palace people around the Seven Princes were all left by Concubine Hui, and she had to be cleaned up sooner or later. Concubine Yun, this dead woman, is really vicious, she actually cursed her with this matter!

"Sister Concubine Yun is really worried, the prince and princess are the dragon son and dragon grandson! How can they be approached by those evil spirits? Those who are in bad health may not be the real dragon sons and grandsons!"

Li Qingyi looked at Concubine Yun's body obviously

Shook a little.

Earlier, there were rumors in the palace that Concubine Yun had an affair with a talented young man before entering the palace, although it was later confirmed that this was not true, but there were still people who took it out from time to time to shake it.

In addition, the sixteen princesses bred by Concubine Yun have always been in poor health and are often sick and painful, these two things were mentioned by Concubine Li, and the meaning of each was self-evident.

But even if the concubines in the palace are angry, they will not take out the posture of swords and guns to scold the street, they have been swords since elementary school, and they kill people invisibly while talking and laughing.

"It's a good thing for my sister to be relaxed, but she also has to take care of her body, otherwise her sister will be stained with all this rain and dew in vain, but there is not a seed that sprouts, and it is not a way. Ouch, sister, look at my sister's memory, the princess is still waiting for me, my sister has to go back quickly, this child, whether it is rich or poor, there must be a mother to hurt!"

Concubine Yun said, holding the handkerchief to cover the cherry and laughing for a while, and took the lead in taking a group of palace people away.

These two people were originally equal in the harem, and no one looked down on anyone, and when they saw each other, they must ask you to come and say goodbye, and the palace people have long been used to it, which is like Mu Guifei at the beginning, with a black mouth and a ruthless heart, a light look can make people's spines chill. The palace people didn't take the quarrel between the two seriously at all.

Li Qingyi secretly thought in his heart, Mu Guifei fell, and there must be new checks and balances in the palace.

Now it seems that these two newly promoted concubines are not scheming.

Men rarely like smart women, women are too smart, and they often bring trouble to men, especially in the harem, and also involve the court in front.

Concubine Li looked at Concubine Yun's back and gritted her back molars, "Hmph! We'll see!"

She fell behind, and she had nowhere to be angry at this time, and when she saw Li Qingyi avoiding the side, she immediately reprimanded angrily: "Where did this wild girl come from! I don't know how to be polite, and I don't even salute when I see this palace!"

Li Qingyi had obviously bent her knees to make a blessing, but she pretended not to see it, and insisted on looking for trouble.

"Concubine Li Niangniang claimed that 'this palace doesn't seem to be very in line with the rules, and the courtiers don't know how to salute Concubine Li Niangniang for a while, and ask Niangniang to forgive her sins."

In the harem, the rank is strict, and only the concubines who are above the fifth rank and have a title and are the lord of the first palace can call themselves "this palace".

Concubine Li previously lived in Yuxiang Palace with Concubine Hui and the good nobles, Concubine Hui was the main position, and she was in the side position with the good nobles.

A few people who lived in Yuxiang Palace, first there were good nobles with one corpse and two lives, and then Concubine Hui was beaten into the cold palace, indeed as Concubine Yun said, it was not very auspicious, so Concubine Li wanted to move out of Yuxiang Palace under the pretext that the Seven Princes would inevitably see things and think about people.

The queen will not embarrass her in this matter, she has already agreed, but the matter has not yet been implemented.

Strictly speaking, Concubine Li's "main palace" is indeed overstepping.

Concubine Li took care of the loss, gritted her teeth with a black face, and was about to say something more, when she suddenly saw the eleventh princess walking towards this side.

Concubine Li has always been a little frightened by this rude and willful princess, and the eleventh princess is not willing to hand over her younger brother to Concubine Li, so she turned around and left without hesitation.

Li Qingyi raised her eyebrows, this concubine is really a coward.

The emperor opened his mouth to hand over the Seven Princes to her to raise, even if the Eleventh Princess is the sister of the Seventh Prince, there is no room for objection, and even if she disagrees, can she still raise the Seven Princes herself?

It's none of her business, though.

Li Qingyi turned around and walked towards Yikun Palace.

It's just that before she could let the chamberlain pass the word, Princess Eleven walked quickly past her from behind, "Eleven asks to see the queen mother."

Li Qingyi looked up, and saw that the eleventh princess was also looking at her with an ugly face, and her eyes showed hatred.

Li Qingyi knew what was going on.

The eleventh princess had already selected the concubine, who was the nephew of the Mu family, who won the Jinshi last year, and had good looks, and the eleventh princess was also regarded as a son-in-law under the list, and she was very satisfied with her future husband.

However, the Mu family sat down, and the eleventh princess's concubine could not escape death, and the eleventh princess went to follow the emperor

pleaded, but the emperor not only did not agree, but also pointed out that her mother Concubine Hui had a very close relationship with the Mu family, and sent Concubine Hui into the cold palace to accompany Concubine Mu

The eleventh princess didn't dare to argue with her father, so she could only swallow the bitter water into her stomach silently. Seeing Li Qingyi at this time, it was inevitable that a resentment would fall on her.

"This princess has something to say to the queen mother, so you can wait here!"

Li Qingyi was noncommittal, looked at the palace maid in front of the inner hall and said, "Please spread the word, Li Qingyi has come to meet the queen mother."

The palace maid glanced at the two of them and turned back to go in.

After a while, Su Rong, who was next to the queen mother, walked out.

She first looked at the eleventh princess and said, "Your Royal Highness the princess, the queen mother can't agree to what you want, please go back."

Immediately, she said to Li Qingyi, "Miss Li, please come in with the slave."

The eleventh princess bit her lip and looked at Li Qingyi's gaze, and her hatred became a little stronger.

But Li Qingyi didn't look at her at all, and followed Su Rong into the inner hall.

Princess An Cheng is also there.

As soon as she saw Li Qingyi, she hurriedly came over and grabbed her, "Eleven is outside, she didn't embarrass you, right?"

Li Qingyi first saluted the queen, and then replied, "In front of the queen's palace, she didn't dare to make any small moves."

Princess An Cheng snorted coldly, "Guess, what does she want to ask my queen mother?"

Li Qingyi looked at the queen mother.

The queen mother smiled, "She said that the Seventh Prince is too young to be separated from his biological mother, and she wants to ask the emperor for mercy and let him follow Concubine Hui to live in the cold palace for two years, and when the Seventh Prince reaches the age of enlightenment, let the emperor decide."

Li Qingyi was a little surprised, "Isn't it Concubine Hui's idea?"

Princess An Cheng sneered, "Mothers are afraid of affecting their children, but this Concubine Hui uses her son as a life-saving object. On the surface, she asked the seventh brother to follow her to the cold palace to endure hardships, but the seventh brother is the prince after all, and with the seventh brother by her side, is she still a cold palace? She is unwilling to be affected by Mu Guifei, and wants to borrow the seventh brother to turn over!"

Li Qingyi was silent for a moment, "This idea is indeed a bit whimsical, there has never been such a precedent, but ......."

Princess An Cheng's eyes narrowed, "But what? You don't think it's possible, do you?"
