In a few words, Wei Concubine pointed out the reason for Lan Concubine's gaffe.

Lan Concubine lowered her face: "Does Concubine Wei want to protect Xu Guiren?" ”

"Xu Guiren is not at fault, how can this palace cover up?"

"As a nobleman, she is disrespectful to this palace, which is a sin!"

"Really? This palace only saw her kneeling on the snow and bowing to you, which cannot be said to be disrespectful even when it comes to the queen. ”

Lan Concubine said in a calm voice: "Xu Guiren saw the palace but turned a blind eye, is it wrong for the palace to punish her for kneeling?" ”

"Sister Wei Concubine, the concubine has no ......"

Xu Guiren cast a plea of eyes at her.

"Needless to say, this palace believes that you don't,"

Concubine Wei's words made Xu Guiren feel a trace of warmth in this harsh winter, and the friendship between them could take her across the river: "Seeing that the high-ranking concubines don't worship, this is proud of their pampering, Xu Guiren She has no holy favor, where does the arrogance come from?" If there is a misunderstanding, she kneels and kneels now, so don't delay to say hello to the queen. ”

Xu Guiren: ......

Smack, the boat of friendship capsized.

As she spoke, the palace maid beside Concubine Wei helped Xu Guiren up.

"This palace is not allowed!"

Concubine Lan glared at the palace maid.

And the palace maid returned to Concubine Wei after her blessed body: "The master of the slave maid is Concubine Wei, and the slave maid can't listen to Concubine Lan's words." ”

Her words were suddenly bad, and Concubine Lan was a little helpless while being angry, and the method used by Concubine Wei was to take Xu Guiren and turn around and leave, never in love. Let the left sentence "this palace is not allowed" and the right sentence "bold", and he has never even looked back.

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

Wei Concubine asked lightly.

After listening to Xu Guiren's retelling, Wei Concubine sneered and said: "She was so angry with Concubine Xi that she was crazy, you just happened to bump into it, and she caught it to vent." Looking at her temper, I really suspect that the emperor didn't stay in Youlan Garden last night because she came to the water! ”

The two of them walked in a hurry, not avoiding people, and when Feng Concubine came over to greet them, she heard the last sentence:

"Who is out of tune?"

Xu Guiren greeted her and told her about the morning's events.

"Oh, you have always been polite. Although it is said that there are high and low ranks, where did Concubine Lan come from, we all know in our hearts that the rules taught by the people over there can be taught by the Xu family well? Hongu doesn't believe that you would do anything to see her without saluting. ”

Feng Concubine soothed gently.

This kind of Rashomon incident*, without the premise of monitoring, is all about location, connections, and holy grace.

Concubine Lan has a position, and Xu Guiren has connections.

It also depends on the owner to beat the dog, and Wei Concubine has to stand up for her.

As soon as the queen came out, Wei Concubine took the lead in saying: "Queen Mother, something strange happened this morning!" Lan Concubine slandered Xu Guiren for not saluting her and being disrespectful to her, so she punished her for kneeling in the snow. The concubine thinks, Xu Guiren has been in the noble position for so many years, and he often interacts with the concubines on weekdays, the experience of the concubine master to salute and greet him is quite rich, how can he make a mistake? There must have been a misunderstanding in it. ”

After hearing this, everyone was stunned and thought for a while and didn't understand whether she was mocking Xu Guiren or excusing her.

In the face of the dispute between the palace and the court, the ruler in everyone's heart is different.

But this time, most of the concubines thought that Xu Guiren should have been made difficult by Concubine Lan - those who can endure Wei Concubine's mouth, how much temperament can people with higher rank than themselves have!

"If it's a misunderstanding, is the misunderstanding solved?"

The queen asked.

"The concubine saw that Xu Guiren knelt and knelt, that is, there were really mistakes and omissions in the rules, and they made up for it. It was a small matter to let Xu Guiren kneel for a while, and it was a big matter to delay the time to ask the queen mother, so the concubine mediated it, and she was not late. However, the concubine looked at it, and Concubine Lan's sister seemed to be not in a good mood. Hey, the little girl is just angry. ”

"Naturally, the palace should be harmonious."

The queen bowed her head, thinking of Concubine Lan's bewitching face, and her heart was displeased for a while.

Concubine Lan was arrogant, she had never dealt with other concubines after entering the palace, and she would be given eye medicine by Concubine Wei, and no one would say a word to her.

When Concubine Lan walked into Jianzhang Palace with a puffed face, and endured her anger to greet the queen's mother, she was named: "When you ask the palace and the queen mother for peace, you should have respect and care for each other, look at Concubine Lan's face, but she is dissatisfied with the palace?" ”

"The concubine didn't."

Lan Concubine replied in a tense tone.

The queen listened to her words, glanced up, and said with a light smile: "I heard that Concubine Lan had learned the rules of Yan Chi on the grassland, but now it seems that she has only learned the fur. Anyway, the palace will lend you Mama Zeng, which can be regarded as a grace to you, and you have changed your virtue as soon as possible, so as not to make a fool of yourself in front of the Queen Mother. ”

The concubines knew in their hearts that the queen might not have believed Concubine Wei's words, but she saw that Concubine Lan was not happy and wanted to lose her temper, and no one wanted to stop her.

Borrowing the rules of Mama is to send an executioner over.

Concubine Lan didn't understand everything, but she heard that it was not a good thing, she shouted: "The concubine respects the queen from the bottom of her heart, but today she was bumped by Xu Guiren on the way to Jianzhang Palace, and she was unhappy, and she brought some out of her face, begging Niangniang to preside over justice for her concubine." ”

"About you and Xu Guiren, this palace has heard from Concubine Wei. Since Xu Guiren has knelt down with you in the snow, don't worry about it, you will lose the harmony of the harem. ”

The queen frowned, she was reprimanded by the emperor a few days ago because of Jiang Guiren's affairs, pointing out that she was not strict with the palace people and caused trouble, seeing that Concubine Lan was going to cause trouble, she hurriedly pushed her down.

Zhonggong has spoken, and Concubine Lan is unwilling, so she can only swallow it.

In fact, her anger was not born because of Xu Guiren, Xu Guiren was like a passing dog who was kicked for no reason.

Concubine Lan blinked, and tears fell: "Concubine Xie Niangniang's teachings, the concubine has not been in Yanchi for a long time, and she doesn't know much about the rules, Concubine Xi spent the night in Qiankun Palace, and she stayed awake all night pestering the emperor, I'm afraid it is not in accordance with the rules!" ”

Yun Jiao, who was eating melons next to him with relish, was stunned for a moment and pointed at himself: "Me? ”

She didn't think about Lan Concubine's bad temper on herself.

"Who else was there in Qiankun Palace last night besides you?"

"There are quite a lot of people in Qiankun Palace, and there must be no shortage of people around the emperor to serve them."

Lan Concubine choked: "Messing around, I'm talking about the concubine who stayed overnight!" ”

"Then I don't know, I fell asleep early, I really don't know if the emperor summoned others again in the middle of the night, I slept very deeply, even if the emperor summoned you to Qiankun Palace, I wouldn't wake up."

Yun Jiao waved his hand, trying to get rid of it.

It's just that it's not very clever, and the emperor's reputation is half dirty.

The implication of her words was that the emperor took advantage of her sleep and summoned others to come to the palace?

That's exciting, isn't it?
