Chapter 1417: Dealing with the Imperial Concubine Impartially
At this time, there was silence in Yonghe Palace.
Everyone said they were going to Yonghe Palace to visit the sick Empress, but at this time, no one spoke.
Ever since the emperor received the news that the imperial concubine had broken into the cabinet's treasury and left, although everyone still stayed in Yonghe Palace, they were just waiting for news there.
Of course, the queen also knew everyone's mood.
In fact, she was also waiting for news from outside with some anxiety.
Did the imperial concubine really break into the cabinet storehouse, or what? How will the emperor deal with this matter?
Now, she only hopes that the harem can be peaceful and there won't be any more disturbances. No matter what happens, for her as the queen, it will be a crime of failing to manage the harem properly.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but clench her fists, her palms full of cold sweat.
The rain is still falling.
Although more than a dozen people were gathered together, not even a cough or a gasp could be heard. Everyone could even clearly hear the sound of every drop of rain dripping from the eaves and falling on the bluestone slabs.
The sound of dripping rain added to the patter of rain on the roof.
Everyone has an indescribable feeling of uneasiness in their heart.
Especially Concubine Hui, Concubine Ning, and Concubine An.
The three of them were the most restless. Several times, Feng Qianyan almost couldn't help holding the armrest of the chair and stood up to see what was going on, but when she saw Concubine Hui was still sitting there, she had to sit back down.
However, the neck was also stretched very long.
What's going on outside?
Seeing that she was really anxious, the little palace maid Hanxiang beside her reached out and gently pressed her arm, and whispered in her ear: "Don't worry, Your Majesty."
Her voice was not loud, but at this time, when someone spoke, everyone couldn't help but look up.
Feng Qianyan glanced at everyone and said calmly, "I just hope that no matter what happens, the emperor can handle it impartially."
Xu Miaoyin's expression turned cold: "Concubine Ning, what do you mean by this?"
Feng Qianyan said softly, "Please forgive me, Your Majesty. I just feel that the Imperial Concubine has been acting too ostentatiously these days and has completely disregarded you, Your Majesty."
Wu Wan on the side also said: "Yes."
Xu Miaoyin also turned and looked at her.
Wu Wan said, "Concubines belong to the harem and should listen to the Empress's mediation on all matters. But this time, the Imperial Concubine has really overstepped her bounds by going to the Cabinet's treasury. Is that a place for concubines to go?"
“…”
Xu Miaoyin also frowned.
Indeed, even she found it difficult to say this.
The imperial concubine running to the cabinet treasury was no longer even considered a matter of the harem. If the emperor went there now, no one knew how he would deal with the matter.
Seeing that everyone started talking again, Xu Miaoyin coughed lightly and said, "That's enough."
Everyone quieted down again and looked up at her.
Xu Miaoyin said calmly, "I believe the emperor will handle this impartially."
Hearing this, Feng Qianyan's mouth curled up into a cold smile, and she secretly said in her heart: I don't believe that this time, you can escape the punishment of the palace rules!
Just as I was thinking about it, I heard hurried footsteps outside.
Everyone looked up immediately and saw the young eunuch and the doorman running in.
He panted and kowtowed: "Your Majesty, Your Majesties."
Xu Miaoyin immediately asked, "How's the situation with the Imperial Concubine?"
The young man raised his head, a hint of hesitation on his face, and said softly, "In reply to the Empress—Your Majesty, the Emperor has accompanied the Imperial Concubine back to the palace."
