Chapter 52: Xiao Junhe and Huo Sinian

"!" Chun Tao cried out in panic.

Shen Ning sat on the ground holding her stomach and glanced at Chun Tao. "Go and report to the Queen Mother."

……

Shen Ning was attacked in the Imperial Garden, and the palace maid in the Li Concubine Palace was arrested.

Her people sprinkled fish powder on Shen Ning's body, which was impossible to get off even if she jumped into the Yellow River.

"Concubine Li, you are so bold!" The Queen Mother was furious and slapped Concubine Li's face, her eyes revealing murderous intent. "What a wicked mind."

Concubine Li was already frightened, and looked at Concubine Ying on the side in fear.

Concubine Ying frowned and warned her not to talk nonsense.

Concubine Lifei trembled and fell to her knees. "The Queen Mother is clear, and the concubines are ...... The concubine didn't know what was wrong. ”

"Don't cry when you don't see the coffin! Your maidservant sprinkled fish powder on Concubine Ning's body, so that she was attacked by the wild cats in the imperial garden, almost causing a miscarriage. The Queen Mother smashed a teacup on the ground.

The palace maid hurriedly appeased. "Niangniang, don't get angry, hurt your body."

The Queen Mother snorted and looked at the eunuch beside her with cold eyes. "Call the mourning family until you tell the truth."

"The Queen Mother spares her life, the Queen Mother spares her life." Concubine Li knelt on the ground and kept begging for mercy.

The eunuch went up and slapped the palace maid with a whip.

The screams echoed in the inner sanctum, and all the concubines trembled with fear.

This can be regarded as an example of killing chickens and monkeys.

"It seems that the emperor killed the palace maid next to Concubine Ying with his staff, and failed to give you a warning." The Queen Mother said in a deep voice and spoke again. "The royal heirs are thin, whoever dares to go private, then don't blame the mourning family......"

The concubines all tensed their nerves.

"The Queen Mother spared her life, the slave maid was just ordered, and she was ordered to bring fish powder back to the palace, and she bumped into Concubine Ning, those wild cats were fed by Concubine Nian, the Queen Mother was clear, and the Queen Mother was clear." The beaten maid cried and knelt and kowtowed.

The Queen Mother narrowed her eyes.

Nian Concubine?

Huo Sinian?

Although the Huo family does not participate in court disputes and has no political conflicts with the Liu family, they are not their own people after all.

The Huo family has never been involved in the affairs of the prince and the harem of the court, and the new emperor ascended the throne, but the Huo family suddenly sent a concubine in, which made the people of the Liu family suspicious for a long time.

However, this Huo Sinian is low-key, and since he entered the palace, he rarely shows up.

Huo Sinian said that she couldn't get sick, and the queen mother exempted her from asking for peace.

Splash dirty water on Huo Sinian......

The Queen Mother is not stupid, this must have been instructed by her brother Liu Zhensheng.

kicked the Huo family out of the palace, or questioned the guilt, completely severing all possible implications between the Huo family and the emperor.

The Queen Mother was thoughtful, obviously she had to weigh the pros and cons.

In front of the harem, the whole body is moved, and there are too many thousands of threads of contact.

"The Queen Mother, this young concubine said that she would not leave the inner palace on the day of illness, but she liked to feed wild cats in the imperial garden, and it was definitely impossible to say that she had no ideas." Liu Yingying hurriedly stepped forward and deliberately reminded the Queen Mother.

Wouldn't it be better to take the opportunity to get rid of Huo Sinian and appease Shen Ning.

What should be done in the palace now is to eradicate dissidents, not to target one's own people.

"Go and pass on the New Year's Concubine." The Queen Mother spoke in a deep voice.

Concubine Li and Concubine Ying breathed a sigh of relief.

……

Shen Ning's dormitory.

"Niangniang, the Queen Mother punished the maid of the concubine, but Concubine Li said that those wild cats were fed by the concubine, and they were just a coincidence."

Shen Ning leaned on the bed and sneered.

She had long guessed that Concubine Li and Concubine Ying would put the blame on others, except for Concubine Nian, but no one fed those wild cats.

is a well-intentioned thing, but it is used by these people, I am afraid that it will cause trouble.

So...... This is the case in this palace, where even the slightest thought of kindness can bring death to oneself.

In the backyard of this palace, how kind you have to be.

Sighing, Shen Ning sat up straight. "Let's go...... They can't be allowed to wronged good people for no reason. ”

Shen Ning didn't have much memory of Huo Sinian of the Huo family, in his previous life, the Huo family was out of the way, and he was not involved at all, let alone send his daughter to the palace.

On the day of the concubine, Shen Ning was also shocked, and the Huo family ...... actually sent his daughter to the palace, which is not a good thing for the Liu family.

Putting aside whether Huo Sinian is an enemy or a friend, but in the harem it definitely played a role in balancing the previous dynasty.

Although her father Shen Bozhong is the prime minister, he has never expanded his wings and henchmen over the years, and he has been honest all his life, so he ended up being killed with no one in his previous life.

But the Huo family is different, the Huo family is a veteran of the three dynasties, and the old general Huo is the founding general of the country with great achievements, the status of the Huo family is very high, even if he does not participate in the succession or court disputes, but the protégés are all over the court and should not be underestimated.

The Liu family has never dared to touch the Huo family, obviously to win over the Huo family, Liu Zhensheng is the protégé of the old man of the Huo family.

Shen Ning knew very well that this Huo Sinian was worth to Xiao Junhe...... Far more than her.

"Mother, you don't have to go, Your Majesty...... Personally went. The palace maid ran in and helped Shen Ning.

Shen Ning was stunned for a moment. "Your Majesty?"

Xiao Junhe has been busy with government affairs in the DPRK and China these days, after all, when the new emperor ascends the throne, even if he is a puppet, he has to deal with a lot of government affairs.

He personally went to protect Huo Sinian?

"The Queen Mother passed on Concubine Huo Nian...... His Majesty happened to be at Concubine Nian's. ”

Shen Ning glanced at the maidservant and didn't say anything.

Xiao Junhe went to Concubine Nian?

Concubine Nian has been sick since she entered the palace, and the Queen Mother has exempted her from asking for peace in the face of the Huo family, Xiao Junhe has never mentioned this Huo Sinian, and even Shen Ning is about to forget her.

Probably, Xiao Junhe also knows the importance of the Huo family.

She trusts Xiao Junhyuk, but she ...... It will also be a little sour.

"Then let's go check it out." Shen Ning whispered.

Chun Tao knew that Shen Ning was uncomfortable, so she hurriedly came up to help. "Niangniang, Your Majesty may just go and chat with Concubine Nian."

Shen Ning shook her head, she didn't care......

As the emperor, there are so many concubines in the harem, Xiao Junhe can't be the only one.

It's just that I feel a little uncomfortable.

It's okay, you'll get used to it.

……

Empress Dowager Cining Palace.

Concubine Nian is an extremely beautiful woman, and she is from a family of generals, full of martial arts, and she looks more eye-catching than ordinary weak women, and she has an indescribable heroic spirit.

Among the weak concubines in the harem, the young concubine is undoubtedly outstanding.

In the early years, it was rumored in Kyoto that the first talented woman was Shen Ning, but the first beauty was Huo Sinian.

Shen Ning and Huo Sinian have not dealt much, Huo Sinian has been following his grandfather at the border in the early years, and he has only returned to Kyoto after these years, and he is a wonderful person.

"The concubine has seen the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother is blessed with Jin'an." Huo Sinian stood quietly aside.

"Concubine Nian, do you know what the mourning family means by coming here?" The Queen Mother asked.

"Your Majesty has arrived."

Before Huo Sinian could explain, Xiao Junhe came.

The Queen Mother narrowed her eyes, the emperor rarely participates in harem disputes, what's wrong today? I can't wait to protect it.

It seems that Xiao Junhe likes this young concubine very much.

After taking a closer look at Huo Sinian, the Queen Mother sneered, he is a beautiful person, Xiao Junhe grew up in the military camp since he was a child, and he does have more common topics with Huo Sinian.

It's just that if Xiao Junhe falls in love with Huo Sinian, then Shen Ning, the old man, ...... It's just a bit bleak.

But this is the palace, how can there be so much dedication.

"Mother, I wonder what happened?" Xiao Junhe asked in a deep voice.

"The emperor has every opportunity, and he didn't tell him about this trivial matter in the harem." The queen mother still respects Xiao Junhe.

"Oh?" Xiao Junhe sat in a wheelchair and glanced at Huo Sinian. "I had a very happy conversation with Nian'er, and when I saw that the people in the harem were in a hurry, I was worried that the queen mother had something important, so I came over together."
