Treacherous Living in the Imperial Harem

Chapter 251: Mixed Flavors

"Clumsy book?" Of course, Concubine Jing knew the chief confidant of Concubine Shu's dowry, and she was not a person who had no city at all, it was just that she sold other people in the past.

Concubine Shu Ouyang Fulu, after all, grew up with her, and was once in love with her sister's boudoir handkerchief.

If it weren't for the family, she and Ouyang Fulu might actually have a very good relationship in this life.

He just slandered and framed Concubine Shu in front of the imperial concubine a while ago, now seeing Concubine Shu, the most trusted dowry, how can I not feel a little guilty?

It is not false to say that Rockwell's years of education are not fake.

At this moment, he forced himself to be calm, and after giving him a seat without a gift, he asked someone to bring tea, and asked with a pleasant face, "Why did the concubine Shu send you here? Is there something wrong?"

"There is something wrong." Zhuoshu glanced around, and after Concubine Jing ordered to clear the place, he said apologetically, "Concubine Jing, please don't take offense, it's not that the servant doesn't trust your people, it's just that... It’s really hard to spread it before it’s done.”

Concubine Jing has no time to pay attention to these details now, and only continues to ask her why she came.

"Your Majesty, do you know that a few days ago, His Majesty personally delivered an errand to Concubine Shu and Concubine De?"

"...Could it be about Yongchunhou's marriage?" This matter is not a secret, the main reason is that Chunjia didn't want to keep it a secret. Knowing, at least high-level people are well aware.

To be honest, they are still very interested in the seat of Mrs. Yongchun Hou.

After all, who doesn't have a few sisters who have a good relationship to take care of?

Even if it is not for the sake of sisters, Chunjia is the only child, no matter how rough the relationship with the two sons of the regent is, they are patriarchal brothers at least. His own son is still young, and he has not been able to let his son help him share his worries for nearly ten years, so he has to count on these two brothers to share some. Especially whether Prince Yi Xiangxiao or Yongchun Hougong Xiangzhen, in terms of talent, prestige and ability, let alone a threat to Chunjia, it is good luck to be an important minister. In this case, it is safer and easier to get rich.

But look at this series of recent events!

The two empress dowagers had to drag their old bodies back home, and the empress and concubine were dragged out to criticize them repeatedly.

Under such turmoil, who would care about finding a good husband for the sisters in the family?

It's too late to shiver!

Now that my book mentions this matter, Concubine Jing frowned subconsciously, she didn't even bother to pay attention to Marquis Yongchun's marriage before, let alone now?

Seeming to see her thoughts, I wrote in a low voice: "Your Majesty, Concubine Shu has already looked at His Majesty's thoughts to find some people, but... after this is not about Wan Jieyu, I am afraid that you will also be hated by Concubine Concubine Up? That's why Concubine Shu thought, why not recommend the girls in your family to His Majesty..."

Concubine Jing was startled.

The humble book explained: "The Marquis of Yongchun is your majesty's brother. If the lady of the Luo family promises it to him, then even if your majesty is honoring your brother, how can you not protect your majesty? You know your majesty's nature. Although I have always favored concubines and concubines, when it comes to big issues of right and wrong, I have never allowed concubines to mess around. It must be known that Marquis Yongchun is still young, and His Majesty is mainly urging the Empress Dowager to finalize his marriage at this moment. It can be seen that Your Majesty Pure filial piety after all. If this is the case, if the marriage is settled for Marquis Yongchun, the elder sister of Marquis Yongchun’s fiancée will suffer in the palace and spread the word, others will think that His Majesty intends to embarrass Marquis Yongchun! How could Your Majesty do such a thing? What about the matter?"

Concubine Jing was silent for a while, with mixed emotions in her heart, and her face became a little unnatural: "This...will this be troublesome? Besides, His Majesty may not be happy to see the Marquis of Yongchun marrying a famous family."

Although she tried her best to endure at this moment, her whole body couldn't help trembling slightly.

It is ashamed to feel ashamed.

Although this matter has not been reported yet, the fact is that she just sold Concubine Shu in front of the noble concubine for herself, the thirteenth prince and the sixth prince...

The sale was very thorough, without considering Concubine Shu's life or death at all, let alone what would happen to her four imperial daughters after Concubine Shu left...

The results of it?

Concubine Shu is still trying to find ways for her.

Even at the expense of making a fuss about the errand assigned by the emperor...

Not to mention whether this move is useful or feasible, it is only for her heart, it can be seen that the affection of those years before entering the palace is all true.

Concubine Jing felt impulsive for a moment, she just didn't care about anything, and immediately rushed to Concubine Shu to kowtow to admit her mistake, dump the beans in the bamboo tube for what she had done, and then try to solve it together... If it doesn't work, she will die, Concubine Shu Treating her like this, she will definitely take good care of the thirteenth prince and sixth prince...

But she finally held back.

After all, she did not doubt that Concubine Shu would take care of the thoughts of the thirteenth prince and the sixth prince.

But he understands the ruthlessness of the imperial concubine even more.

Concubine Shu... I'm afraid she will be powerless at that time.

It will even offend the imperial concubine and set her on fire. At that time, the mother and daughter of the concubine Shu may not be spared...

That being the case, why not simply sacrifice Concubine Shu's mother and daughter to fulfill his own mother and son and the Sixth Emperor's Daughter?

Maybe, if you are lucky, she will be able to save even the fourth imperial daughter under Concubine Shu's knee... At that time, she will definitely treat the fourth imperial daughter well to make up for Concubine Shu... No, that's not called compensation, that's called atonement...

Concubine Jing laughed at herself inwardly, feeling that she was really disgusting.

It is obvious that I am greedy for life and afraid of death, but I still have to find all kinds of excuses... Forget it, I don't want to think about it.

She raised her head, looked at the clumsy book and said: "I am grateful for the kindness of Concubine Shu! But...forget it."

Concubine Jing smiled bleakly, and said softly, "The noble concubine's temperament... would not allow Concubine Shu to help me with this favor. Rather than letting Concubine Shu offend her like this, it's better... that's it... anyway... …That day, I went to Xuanqing Palace to cry and beg for Wan Jieyu. Although the imperial concubine didn’t say anything clearly at the time, but… she must have refused… But in the past two days, I haven’t seen the imperial concubine doing anything to me. Maybe Wan Jieyu His death made her feel that enough..."

After all, she couldn't figure out that she was still urging Concubine Shu to help her at this moment, said something in a desperate tone, and then sent her clumsy book and left.

When Zhuoshu went back to Concubine Shu, he just sighed: "Concubine Jing refuses... Your Majesty, the maid felt that Concubine Jing's expression was not right when she said this."

"She must be under a lot of pressure now, and it would be surprising if her expression remained the same as usual." Concubine Shu sighed, picked up the booklet in front of her, looked at it again and again, and murmured, "Forget it, she...she doesn't think so. I have to struggle, I can't bear it after all. How about this, later, I will try my best to recommend Concubine Jing's cousin to His Majesty. It would be great if His Majesty could nod her head."

"Your Majesty..." Zhuoshu stopped talking several times, and finally couldn't help reminding, "Mother, have you ever thought about it? Concubine Jing went to Xuanqing Palace before, and when she went there, the momentum was so great that the six palaces Knowing that she was going to make trouble with the imperial concubine, what happened? She came out well, or was sent out by the Qing people. Then what did she say to the imperial concubine in the Xuanqing Palace? You know, The reason why Concubine Jing and Wan Jieyu are picked on by the imperial concubine, in the final analysis, is because of us!"

Concubine Shu was silent for a while, closed the booklet in front of her, put it down, then raised her eyes to look at her dowry, and said seriously: "Although I and Concubine Jing have had some rivalries since they were young. Disagreements between noble and famous concubine daughters are common... When it comes to friendship, growing up together, getting along day and night, how could it be impossible? So no matter what Concubine Jing said or did when she went to Xuanqing Palace this time, whether she was sorry for the palace... ...Myself, I want to seek peace of mind."

The clumsy book said in a low voice: "The servant girl knows that the empress has always been glorious..."

"This palace is not all about the wind and the moon." Concubine Shu shook her head and said, "This palace just...wouldn't do anything to offend my sister first."

She whispered, "Actually, Concubine Jing and Wan Jieyu know exactly what happened this time. Don't I know about this? Has Bengong ever stepped forward? During this time, has Bengong contacted them? If Gong had gone to knelt down with the imperial concubine earlier to beg for mercy and admit defeat...the imperial concubine may not necessarily want to kill them all! You know, the imperial concubine may not have the will to kill me, Concubine Jing, and Wan Jieyu in her heart. After all, this palace These people, what grievances do they have with her, so that she must kill her? The reason why the noble concubine did this is because the grandfather, the old man, not only did not abide by the covenant and defend the noble concubine in the previous dynasty, but blamed the noble concubine... One of the noble concubines is I can't swallow this breath; the second is that I don't want people to think that she is a bully now!"

"As long as Ben Gong stands up, and his posture is low enough, so that the noble concubine has a step down, this matter... will never come to this point!"

"but……"

Concubine Shu smiled wryly, "Ben Gong is not only good sisters of Concubine Jing and Wan Jieyu, but also Ouyang's daughter! I... can't do that! Besides, I'm a little... I can't afford to lose that face !"

"In short, no matter what others think, I still feel that I owe something to Concubine Jing and Wan Jieyu... This time, I should repay some..."

"Your Majesty, how can I blame you for this?" Zhuoshu said a little unbearably, "This is caused by the imperial concubine's ambition! If the elders of the family think that the imperial concubine is too much, and she is quite arrogant and disobedient to the holy will Meaning, why didn't you help her?"

As for Wan Jieyu's death, it was the result of the noble concubine's cruelty and unreasonableness.

What are you blaming Concubine Shu for?

Don't even think about it, when Concubine Shu was attacked and criticized by the noble concubine before, did Concubine Jing and Wan Jieyu stand up?

It is said that they are sisters, but they have positions for each other, have a family, and have children... How can it be possible to be as sympathetic to each other as when they were girls?

Concubine Shu sighed, shook her head, said nothing, but her expression was very persistent.

The clumsy book had no choice but to tell her: "Then if His Majesty doesn't like the candidate of Luo's daughter, the empress must not insist on recommending it, and His Majesty will be displeased!"

Afraid that Concubine Shu would not take it seriously, she reminded, "There have been many events in the court these two days. Your Majesty has just imprisoned the son-in-law of His Royal Highness Princess Yun'an. I must not be in a good mood. Now, the empress is going to talk about the candidate for the wife of the Marquis of Yongchun. If His Majesty doesn't like it and insists on recommending...then...maybe it won't help Concubine Jing, and even anger His Majesty, which will be even more detrimental to you and Concubine Jing!"

Concubine Shu absent-mindedly agreed, and ordered people to prepare a chariot to the Taichu Palace. The palace servants had just entered to report, and Concubine Shu was waiting, when she saw a servant rushing towards the harem, with disheveled hair and described as embarrassed because of running too much ...You and Zuo were about to go forward and reprimand him for being disrespectful, but they heard him rushing to the front of the steps and shouting sadly: "His Royal Highness the Tenth Prince has had an accident!!!"
