C10 Difficult

"A concubine is far from comparable to Concubine Wan." Qingzhi knew that under such circumstances, Concubine Wan would be able to pick a mistake no matter what. It was better to only say this sentence.

Sure enough, Concubine Wan smiled. Although it was a fake smile, she did not make things difficult for Qingzhi because of her status. Instead, Concubine Lee, who had not spoken for a long time, tried to smooth things over and said with a smile. "Chenqie heard that the daughter of the Empress Dowager's distant relative is called Dong Yutang. She is also very outstanding."

Dong Yutang had been waiting for this moment and immediately stood out. She was lovable and lovable and her lake green clothes were eye-catching. Her steps swayed by her hair and there was a clear and small voice, "Concubine Dong Yutang greets the various mistresses."

Concubine Lee frowned slightly. She just did not like Pei Wanxiu's appearance and was intending to show that she was magnanimous and proper. Who knew that Dong Yutang loved to show off and climbed up the pole.

Of course, she could not say these words. If she said it, it would be offending the Empress Dowager. She could only pick up the tea bowl by the side and pretend to drink tea.

Dong Yutang bowed, but the scene really turned cold. After Loo Yingzhen lectured, she was already talking about something with Lingxiang by her side. Zhou Yunxiu who had previously asked also quietly drank tea. Bai Chuwei usually did not care about anything and lowered her head to look at her slender fingers. Concubine Jing Soong Caihe saw Imperial Noble Consort's expression and actions and her eyes looked up and down. Only Concubine Wan loved to watch jokes and stared at Dong Yutang with interest.

Until both of her legs were sore and there were traces of sweat on her forehead, Imperial Noble Consort then raised her eyes as if she had just seen her and said, "Beauty Dong, why are you still bowing. Quickly rise."

Dong Yutang felt extremely wronged. However, the hatred that flashed through her eyes could not be seen. In the eyes of others, she only thanked Imperial Noble Consort for her kindness and quietly returned to her original position.

At this time, Imperial Noble Consort spoke, "The biological sister of Empress Daxing was also going to participate in the beauty election. It was just that the weather was repetitive a few days ago and she was not feeling well, so she decided to enter the Palace on the Day after the Heavy Sun Festival."

Consort Rou, who had always been indifferent to worldly affairs, suddenly raised her eyebrows and asked, "Empress Daxing's younger sister?"

Loo Yingzhen smiled gently. "Consort Rou, you have not been in charge of matters for a long time and indeed do not know. Empress Daxing's younger sister is now 15 years old. The Emperor cares about the old relationship and let Miss He enter the Palace this time."

Bai Chuwei lightly snorted and did not say anything else.

Loo Yingzhen knew that her character was like so and did not say much. She only said to the crowd, "The Empress Dowager's meaning is that in the future, there will be a banquet for the Chongyang Family. Why not all of the younger sisters who have just entered the Palace prepare the same talent that they are good at to display their advantages in front of the Emperor and Empress Dowager. It is also an opportunity for the sisters to get to know each other. As for the Empress' sister, she had already been given the title of a fifth-grade De Yuan. She had entered the Palace on the Day of the Heavy Sun Festival, so she was naturally the same as the other sisters. She also has to present her skills on the spot. "

"Your concubines will do as you bid." The room was filled with beautiful girls, and when they combined their replies, it was also a delicate voice.

Meng Nianyun was the only one who was panicking in her heart. It was normal for her to have heavenly capital. A small family would not be able to hire a master teacher, so how could she learn such an amazing skill in the harem? Initially, she did not want to go to Sister Fu's place to retrieve the items, but now, she was eager to rush over and beg Sister Fu to give her an idea to avoid it.

After saying all that needed to be said, it was time to leave. Before she left, Imperial Noble Consort said, "Consort Rou, hold on. Bengong has something to tell you."

Loo Yingzhen's position in the Emperor's heart was not ordinary. The Lanlin Hall was as cool and comfortable as spring all year round. The doors and windows on all four sides were opened and a gentle breeze blew by but Bai Chuwei's heart was extremely vexed. When everyone had left, she directly asked, "May I know why Imperial Noble Consort is keeping Chenqie alone?"

Loo Yingzhen faintly smiled, "When mentioning the Empress's younger sister just now, Consort Rou younger sister's face seemed to be unhappy. Is it because of what happened back then?"

Sure enough, there was nothing good. Bai Chuwei smiled coldly again and got up to bless. She said, "If there is no proper business, Chenqie will retire." After saying that, she did not care about what Loo Yingzhen was thinking. He directly left Lanlin Hall. Loo Yingzhen watched her leave and gradually grabbed the armrest of the chair. She said coldly, "Lingxiang, I'm afraid Consort Rou is going to rebel against the heavens."

Lingxiang knew that the enmity between these two people had already been deeply rooted when the Empress of Great Xing, He Xirong, was still around, but her Mistress relied on her high position. There was also the vice queen, who provoked and suppressed Consort Rou time and time again. And Consort Rou was also really strange. She had a look of pride on her body. She was neither servile nor overbearing and had been secretly stepped on by Mistress for so many years. She did not see anything bad about it either.

"Mistress, Consort Rou can no longer give birth. What is she going to use to rebel against the heavens?"

"That's true." The corner of Loo Yingzhen's mouth curved up and one could faintly see her beautiful dimples, "What is the use of a woman who does not know how to give birth in the harem? With that disappointing belly, the Emperor will hate her sooner or later."

The temperature in Lanlin Hall was suitable but Lingxiang who was at the side lightly shivered.

Outside Yanqing Palace, when Consort Rou came out, she saw Concubine Wan standing by the side. There were palace maids and servants kneeling in front of her and a few young mistress stood there. Fu Qingzhi who was in her own palace also lowered her head to listen to the lecture and Concubine Jing seemed to be persuading something.

Consort Rou did not change her expression and returned to the door. She heard Dong Yutang's voice over there and said, "Concubine Wan Ladyship, it is true that the concubine was stepped on by Jiang Imperial Attendant's skirt before she pounced on you but you are also fine."

"Impudent. Could it be that Beauty Dong also learned medicine? Bengong has yet to invite an Imperial Physician to come and you say that Bengong is fine. What is your intention?" Concubine Wan sneered, "Bengong was just crossing the threshold just now. If it was not for the palace maid's quick reaction to support Bengong, you would have pounced over and what kind of consequences would have resulted, do you know?!"

Dong Yutang bit her lips. She did not know how she offended Concubine Wan and the matter was clearly not as exaggerated as what she said. She only slightly staggered and did not let anyone support her but this Pei Wanxiu insisted that the small matter be blown up and left everyone behind to watch the joke.

Thinking that there were so many people watching by the side, Dong Yutang only felt that she had lost face and wanted this matter to end quickly. When she had favours in the future, she naturally had to settle the score with Pei Wanxiu.

At this moment, Dong Yutang said in a blessed manner, "Esteemed Concubine Wan, please forgive me. It was really the concubine's unintentional loss. It was all her fault." She pointed at the trembling Jiang Imperial Attendant hatefully, "I wonder why Jiang Imperial Attendant did not even know how to walk and insisted on stepping on the concubine's skirt."

Jiang Imperial Attendant was also unintentional. She was a young lady who had just entered the Palace. As soon as she left home, she did not sleep well for a few nights. She woke up early today to listen to Imperial Noble Consort's guidance and was in a daze. He did not know how he had offended these two figures. Immediately, he knelt on the ground. He said with a trembling voice, "A concubine is guilty, please punish me, Concubine Wan. "It is a concubine, not a concubine."

Pei Wanxiu raised her chin and was very proud. Soong Caihe was originally trying to persuade not to torture the newlyweds like this. Most of them were the daughters of the officials and it would be better to leave some face. Seeing her like this, she was too lazy to persuade and brought along the palace maids to leave first.

It was just that Pei Wanxiu was touching and crawling in the Palace. After so many years, she was not really stupid. Previously when she realised that Dong Yutang was the one who offended her, she silently calculated in her heart. After all, she was still someone from the Empress Dowager's side and she did not dare to be ruthless. But later on, Dong Yutang pushed out Jiang Imperial Attendant to block in front and Pei Wanxiu could not help but use this to establish her prestige.

Imperial Attendant was a Rank-8 and even Meng Nianyun, with her family background, could earn a decent Rank-8. It could be imagined how weak this Jiang Imperial Attendant's mother clan was.

Pei Wanxiu immediately said, "Since Jiang Imperial Attendant has yet to learn the court etiquette, let Royal Affair Department remove her green signboard. Learn for a few more months and study in detail. Otherwise, when the Emperor and the previous son serve her, she would still be so impatient."

Because Fu Qingzhi and Meng Nianyun did not wait for Concubine Wan to speak, they did not dare to leave like Concubine Jing. Hearing these words, Qingzhi was shocked in her heart. Could it be that they were only in the position of concubines and it was said that they had not earned a Palace Head position? Just by living together with Concubine Jing in the Ganquan Palace, could Imperial Concubine be allowed to fall? Wasn't it said that Imperial Noble Consort had the authority to control the six palaces?

Sure enough, Concubine Wan continued, "Ming'er, you go and report this matter to Imperial Noble Consort and ask if it is possible for her to make such a decision."

Just as she finished speaking, a jade like voice lightly sounded, "Concubine Wan is very impressive."

Everyone hurriedly bowed to her, "Greeting Consort Rou Ladyship."

Pei Wanxiu was currently teaching a lesson and when she saw that she was really unwilling to come, she was unable to withstand the rules of the Palace and still obediently blessed her.

Bai Chuwei nodded her head and indicated for her to stand up before saying, "Just when I went out, I heard that Concubine Wan was going to withdraw someone's green tag. This Palace has not been in charge of matters for a long time and really did not know why the power of coordinating with the Inner Palace has fallen. Is it because of Concubine Wan? "

How could Pei Wanxiu allow someone to slap her face in front of everyone and proudly said, "Chenqie did not say that and was also prepared to let Ming'er report this matter to Imperial Noble Consort. Consort Rou Ladyship had put on such a hat, thus I cannot agree with Concubine."

Bai Chuwei was very calm and did not care about what Concubine Wan said and said, "It is just a small matter. Jiang Imperial Attendant will apologize to you and even if she can go over, she will not agree. It is over. Only you treat it as a big matter. Imperial Noble Consort had to deal with many urgent matters every day before instructing the sisters to get along harmoniously. "You still have time to listen to this?"

After saying that, she did not bother about anyone else and left leisurely with Hongtan.

Qingzhi felt a little surprised. Bai Chuwei had always looked at people who did not love to pile up in the past but now she was willing to speak for a little Imperial Attendant. It was really very strange.

After Ming'er went to ask Imperial Noble Consort, Lingxiang's aunt directly brought her out to spread the news to Imperial Noble Consort. The words, "The Inner Palace is quiet and only the Emperor and Empress Dowager can be at ease. Although Concubine Wan is in the right, she is not too tolerant and ordered to go back and reflect. If Jiang Imperial Attendant's words and actions are wrong, she will withdraw the green token for half a month and give a small punishment. "

A few months in exchange for half a month did not seem to be a large punishment and Concubine Wan was only reflecting on it. It seems like Imperial Noble Consort was also considered to be fair and kind. Seeing Pei Wanxiu walk away, Jiang Imperial Attendant on the ground was ashamed and resentful but Qingzhi thought in her heart, if Consort Rou did not say a few words, would the result still be like this?
