- C336 The truth remains unanswered at this time
Rong’er thought to himself: Actually, this is not important to me at all. If I don’t get the trust of the Emperor, what’s the point of being in the Imperial Concubine? Whatever position it was, it was all the same to me. I knew that perhaps I could make a ruckus with the emperor, or drag the Imperial Concubine Wen to make a ruckus and beg the emperor to sentence me for it, but I didn’t want to do that. I hadn’t done it before, and I definitely wouldn’t do it now. ★
“He Zhuo, is what you said true?” Amongst the Yikun Palace, Xiu Shan looked at her own palace maid in shock.
“Yes, master. I heard that the Emperor agreed to surrender the Imperial Concubine Rong to him. I heard that he’s going to issue an edict tonight.” He Zhuo replied in a soft voice.
Xiushan frowned slightly. “What’s wrong with the emperor this time? There are so many suspicious points. Why don’t you investigate?” Puzzled, Xiushan couldn’t help but pace back and forth on the ground.
“Mistress, I don’t know either.” Zhuo shook his head and said.
“He Zhuo, you said that in this palace, the Imperial Concubine Rong is the most doted on by the Emperor. Although her title is not the highest in the last twenty odd years, she holds a significant influence in the palace. It’s only because of her background that her title is destined to be even more difficult.” “Actually, the existence of the Imperial Concubine Rong and even being pampered have no effect on me, right?”
“Yes, Mistress. After all, you are not going to fight for the favor.” He Zhuo nodded in agreement.
When I first entered the palace, I only wanted to accompany my elder sister. The emperor has never given me too much favor, so it was like this when I was here, and it was the same when my elder sister left. I’m also the emperor’s cousin, but the amount of love I received isn’t even as much as my elder sister’s. Xiushan’s tone was bleak.
“Master …” When Zhuo wanted to console her, she was interrupted by Xiushan. She raised her head and smiled, pretending to be relaxed as she said, “Actually, I don’t want to pamper you, I really don’t. As long as I have status, a position above that of the harem is my goal.”
“Mistress, you will achieve it.” Zhuo sincerely said.
“Imperial Concubine Wen is the younger sister of the Empress Xiaozhao. In terms of background, she is my greatest competitor, and during the twenty years that the Emperor favored the Imperial Concubine Rong, the Imperial Concubine Rong was merely an imperial concubine. She basically doesn’t pose any threat to me, and being nice to the Imperial Concubine Rong would instead give you a favorable impression. Xiu Shan hesitated for a moment, raised her head and looked at He Zhuo, “Maybe it’s time to get rid of the Imperial Concubine Wen.”
“Mistress, could it be that you want to use …” Zhuo looked at Xiushan in surprise.
“Wasn’t this all for this day? We were only waiting for the day to get rid of the Imperial Concubine Wen in one fell swoop.” “Perhaps now is the time.”
“Mistress, are you sure?” We had previously released the news of Imperial Concubine Wen framing Imperial Concubine Ping to the Yikun Palace. The Imperial Concubine Ping had said it everyday and the emperor had heard it as well. I don’t think there’s any news from the Emperor until today. Are you sure this will work? If we fail this time, then all our hard work will be for nothing. ” and Zhuo asked anxiously.
She paced back and forth in the palace. After a moment, she stopped, raised her head and looked at He Zhuo, and suddenly laughed softly, “Actually, do you know who He Zhuo is? All these years, I have personally seen my elder sister’s indifference towards the Imperial Concubine Rong, and have also personally seen the kindness the Imperial Concubine Rong has shown me. She has always been very good to me, and I can feel that it was the kind of sincere kindness rather than hypocrisy.
“Mistress, have you decided?” She was older than Xiu Shan, she was originally a palace maid beside the Empress Xioayi, but after she entered the palace, she was sent by Xiu Ning to Xiu Shan. It could be said that she was the person Xiu Shan trusted the most in the harem, so she didn’t force her, but only gently confirmed her agreement.
“He Zhuo, even if I have wasted my long and hard work, I have already decided to do this!” “Actually, I am betting too. Betting that the Emperor still has the Imperial Concubine Rong in his heart, betting that this time, the position of the Imperial Concubine Wen will be completely lost!”
“The master does this with a kind heart. The heavens might really help the master.” He Zhuo nodded and smiled. “Then this servant will go find her now and arrange this matter. Shall I go to the empress dowager?”
“I believe you will do well.”
“This servant will take her leave. I will give Master a reply later!” He Zhuo retreated.
Xiushan slowly walked to the window. The weather in November was already very cold, and it was grey outside. Ever since her sister’s death, she had always been low-key. Everyone thought she was someone with no requirements, but of course she did! He was the empress of the Great Qing, and his elder sister was one. Why couldn’t she be one? She wanted to be the empress as well, and this was her greatest goal in her life. To achieve this goal, she wouldn’t fight for the favor of others, she made herself well-mannered, and treated people kindly, she kept herself low-key in the palace, but she knew very well that just by her birth, she was completely qualified to become the empress, and the person who posed the greatest threat to her in the imperial harem was only the Imperial Concubine Wen who had a good background.
Within the Yanxi Palace, Gu Wenxing was currently giving an order to Rong’er to move to a small hut beside the palace within two days.
“Lord Rong, the Emperor has yet to issue an official decree, he has only sent an order. This servant thinks that there will definitely be room for manoeuvre, and from this servant’s perspective, moving to the side room is only temporary. In a few days, the Emperor will help the Lord Rong turn the tables on him.” Gu Wenxing said in a low voice.
“Gu Wenxing, tell me how did you do things!” Xiao Qing looked at Gu Wenxing angrily.
“Xiao Qing, you can’t blame this on Eunuch Gu!” Rong’er reprimanded Xiao Qing lightly, “Eunuch Gu, thank you.
“It’s really not that this servant isn’t willing to speak, it’s just that this servant doesn’t know why the emperor is so angry. During this period of time, the emperor won’t be able to hear anything that he says. After a few days, this servant will definitely help the Lord Rong speak up.” Gu Wenxing anxiously explained, “Lord Rong, in my opinion, you shouldn’t blame the emperor. The emperor must be angry so he’s like this, please don’t blame the emperor too.”
“Gu Wenxing, has the sister that Wang agreed to enter the palace yet?” Rong’er suddenly asked.
“Ah?” “My Lord, it’s still on the way. The Emperor promised that he would take care of her in the palace, so in half a month, they might be able to reach the capital.” Suddenly, Gu Wenxing was asked about this matter, and for some reason, he replied honestly.
Rong’er nodded slightly, then looked at Xiao Qing, “Xiao Qing, pack up a little, we’ll move to the next room tonight.”
“Master, the emperor has really gone too far this time. This servant really can’t stand it any longer. This servant is going to meet his sovereign!” Xiao Qing was furious in his heart, and said painfully, “This servant will explain it to the Emperor in person.”
“There’s no need for that.” Rong’er said indifferently, smiling at Xiao Qing as she joked, “It’s not like I’ve never stayed in a room before, forget about a room, I even lived in a palace with small ears, I’ve always been like this, I’m just going back to where I belong.”
“Master …” Listening to Rong’er’s teasing, Xiao Qing felt his heart aching.
“Imperial Concubine Wen has arrived!” The noise outside the palace let Rong’er know that the last person she wanted to see was here again.
“Chenqie greets Imperial Concubine Wen.” Seeing Imperial Concubine Wen enter, Rong’er said.
“This servant greets Imperial Concubine Wen!” Gu Wenxing bowed towards the Imperial Concubine Wen.
Imperial Concubine Wen looked at Gu Wenxing, “Why is Eunuch Gu here?”
“Reporting to Imperial Concubine, this servant came to pass on the imperial edict.” Gu Xing replied, “If there’s nothing else, then this servant will take my leave first.”
The Imperial Concubine Wen nodded and allowed Gu Wenxing to leave, then turned to look at Rong’er, “Big sister, is the emperor really going to subdue you?”
“Chenqie only agreed. Chenqie doesn’t dare to accept the title of elder sister.” Rong’er replied softly, in agreement to Imperial Concubine Wen’s question.
“I don’t mind if I don’t feel it’s inappropriate. I don’t believe Big Sister is such a person! I want to report to the emperor that he’s reinvestigating this matter! ” Imperial Concubine Wen’s face was filled with injustice.
Rong’er smiled and looked at Imperial Concubine Wen, “Imperial Concubine your highness, do you really not know the truth of the matter? “On that day, only chenqie and you had gotten close to the king and agreed, but you should be very clear about why chenqie would get close to the king and agree.”
Looking at Rong’er’s calm expression, Imperial Concubine Wen lightly clenched his teeth, “I really don’t understand. You’re already in such a state, how can you still be so indifferent? You can scold, you can cry, you can shout injustice, don’t you feel sad at all? ”
“Sad?” Rong’er repeated softly, “To be honest, chenqie is naturally sad. It’s not that you want to frame me, it’s that the emperor doesn’t trust me anymore. Since he doesn’t trust me anymore, what’s the point of saying so much?”
The Imperial Concubine Wen sneered, “How is it? Feeling bad now? This is what you deserve, you have to know that my sister Empress Xiaozhao will not return, the pain that she has to endure is far greater than all of this. You are still alive, so your pain is not even a tenth of her own! ”
I can accept that. I just hope that your highness, the imperial concubine, will take care of her own business, and in the end, Chenqie will still believe that the truth will be revealed one day. Everything is only a matter of time.
“With just you? A promise? To find evidence of me? “Haha!” Imperial Concubine Wen laughed, “Let me tell you, you have to take care of yourself. As the one who promises to keep the promise, I will wait for you to find evidence!
“She can’t. This one can, right?” A cold voice came from the palace gate!
