Chapter 238 Concubine Rou hits someone?
Concubine Rou was very happy to see Gu Qingning, and there was a gentle smile in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows.
In fact, Chen Ya was also very happy.
But she was concerned about her current status and could only restrain herself.
Gu Qingning walked up to the two of them and bowed, "Greetings to Concubine Rou and Concubine Chen."
Chen Ya nodded slightly with a restrained look on her face.
Instead, Concubine Rou took Gu Qingning's hand, looked around, and whispered, "Qingning, did Concubine Su send you a message?"
Gu Qingning nodded, "Yes. She should have sent the message to many people."
It is now late April, the weather is very warm, the flowers in the Imperial Garden are bright and colorful, and the sun is shining brightly.
The noble ladies in the capital all dressed up carefully and came one by one to pay their respects to Concubine Rou and others.
After a while, Princess Jiamin came holding the hand of her mother, Princess Anhua.
Princess Anhua came mainly to meet the Queen Mother, while Princess Jiamin wanted to meet her good sister, the current Concubine Chen.
When they saw Gu Qingning coming, they were stunned.
After all, everyone knows that Su Fei doesn't get along well with Gu Qingning, or with Gu Qingning's family.
Princess Jiamin said quickly, "She actually invited you here? Isn't she going to do something at the banquet?"
Xiang'er didn't even have time to cover her master's mouth!
Princess Anhua still glared at her daughter helplessly.
"Stop talking nonsense, this is the imperial palace! If you do this again, I won't bring you here next time."
Princess Jiamin chuckled, "Aren't there no outsiders here? Besides, if you don't bring me here, I'll come by myself!"
Princess Anhua was very helpless.
Gu Qingning was standing nearby, but she could feel Princess Anhua's love for Jiamin.
Because she is loved by her family, she has grown up to be such a bright, lively and brilliant person like Jiamin.
To be honest, Gu Qingning was a little envious.
If that tragedy had not happened to the Lin family, she might have been like Jiamin.
At this moment, Concubine Su came in surrounded by people, and some ladies of noble birth followed her.
Nalan Zhu'er was originally following a woman, walking around bored.
But when he saw Gu Qingning, he immediately left everyone around him and walked towards them.
"Lime! Jiamin!"
This young lady is even more carefree than Princess Jiamin.
He was originally one of the people surrounding Concubine Su, but now he is walking towards them?
Gu Qingning noticed that Su Fei's mouth twitched.
In order to maintain decorum, he did not have an outburst on the spot.
Nalan Zhuer had already arrived in front of them, "When did you come?"
Gu Qingning: "We just arrived too, did you come here by yourself?"
Nalan Zhu'er pointed in the direction of Concubine Su and said, "She came with Sister-in-law Cen Jue."
Gu Qingning realized that the lady walking next to Concubine Su was the wife of the current head of the Cen family.
Isn't that the Ninth Prince's man?
Concubine Su is so close to the Ninth Prince's people. Doesn't she try to hide it at all?
At this moment, Su Fei actually came over with a group of people, and she smiled gently.
"Qing Ning, I haven't seen you for a long time. I heard that you gave birth to a daughter. Congratulations."
The other ladies exchanged glances.
Everyone knows that Lu Jingyu is a favorite of His Majesty, but his wife only gave birth to a daughter.
Gu Qingning remained calm and said, "Thank you for your concern, Madam."
Concubine Su continued, "Of course I care about you. After all, we are relatives. I watched Jingyu grow up."
Before, everyone thought that Su Fei and Gu Qingning didn’t get along.
Now seeing them like this, everyone is confused.
Concubine Rou frowned, looking depressed.
She took a step forward angrily and grabbed Gu Qingning's hand.
"Qing Ning, come here and talk to me about Xiao Xiyao. I miss her so much."
Gu Qingning: "Yes."
Concubine Su suddenly reached out and grabbed Concubine Rou's wrist.
She deliberately provoked, "Sister Roufei, what are you doing? Why can't I even say a few words to Qingning?"
"Although you are Qing Ning's adoptive mother, I am still Qing Ning and Jing Yu's aunt."
"With your personality, no wonder Mingyue doesn't get close to you."
Gu Qingning frowned slightly.
Why does Concubine Su seem like she's here to cause trouble on purpose?
She was a little worried about Concubine Rou.
Because she knew that Concubine Su had been aggressive over the years and Concubine Rou was a little afraid of her.
As a result, the accident happened at this moment.
Concubine Rou suddenly pulled her hand back, then raised her hand and slapped Concubine Su!
“Bang!”
Everyone was stunned and looked at this scene in surprise.
I've seen this so long!
This was the first time in decades that someone had seen someone beating Concubine Su, and the one who did it was Concubine Rou, who had the best temper in the palace!
Gu Qingning was shocked. She looked at Concubine Rou in surprise.
But he saw that Concubine Rou's eyes were red, and he didn't know whether she was angry, afraid, or excited. In short, she couldn't stop shaking all over.
Su Fei herself was also stunned. She covered her face with her hands and her eyes were bloodshot.
Concubine Rou didn't have much strength and wasn't very good at hitting people, so the slap didn't hurt at all.
But this is a matter of face!
The people around her were all the rich ladies in the capital! She was beaten in public?
"Jiang Yurou! Are you crazy? How dare you hit me!"
During this period of time, Concubine Su was increasingly irritable because of her son's accident and her subsequent demotion. Everything was going wrong for her.
I wanted to be proud of myself today.
She had asked Madam Cen to pass the news to the Ninth Prince, wanting to mock Concubine Rou again.
But who would have thought that Concubine Rou, who didn't know what medicine she had taken, actually dared to hit her?
She was actually beaten by Concubine Rou, whom she had always looked down upon?
Su Fei couldn't help it!
She raised her hand to hit Concubine Rou, and the slap was about to land on Concubine Rou's face...
Gu Qingning gritted her teeth and rushed over immediately, trying to protect Concubine Rou with her body.
But someone was faster than her. He reached out, grabbed Su Fei's hand, and threw it aside.
It’s Chen Ya.
Chen Ya is skilled in martial arts, and the force of this swing was so great that it caused Su Fei to lose balance and fall to the ground!
She turned around and gave Gu Qingning a hidden look.
Gu Qingning understood immediately.
This is not a good place for her to take action.
Because whether it is Concubine Su, Concubine Rou, or Chen Ya and the others, they are all palace concubines and their positions are the same.
This matter has become a big deal, and it all depends on who Emperor Minghe sides with.
Once Gu Qingning intervened and really hurt Su Fei, or Su Fei hurt her, that would be another matter...
Sun Jiufeng, Madam Cen and others here quickly helped Concubine Su up.
The other ladies all stepped back quickly.
It is better for them to stay away from the disputes among the concubines in the palace.
But some people didn't leave.
Princess Jiamin took a step forward and stood firmly beside Gu Qingning.
This made her mother, Princess Anhua, very helpless, and she had no choice but to go to her daughter's side.
On Concubine Su's side, there were naturally some ladies of high rank, such as Madam Cen and others.
However, Nalan Zhuer ran to Gu Qingning and the others.
Madam Cen: “…”
The phoenix hairpin on Concubine Su's head was crooked. She was being supported by someone, and her eyes were stern.
"Well, you two actually beat me together? I'm going to go to His Majesty and file a complaint against you!"
Concubine Su was deliberately provoking today. She just wanted to see Concubine Rou embarrassed and angry but unable to speak.
Unexpectedly, the other party was so bold as to hit her?
It's okay.
Even though it was different than what she had planned, the result was the same.
Everyone knows that His Majesty is the most fair. He is always clear about right and wrong in everything.
Concubine Su only said two words today, but it was Concubine Rou and Concubine Chen who took action.
She just didn't believe that His Majesty would not uphold justice!
Thinking of this, Concubine Su immediately turned around and walked towards the imperial study.
Everyone is curious about what will happen next.
But they didn't dare to watch such excitement.
The Hairpin Flower Banquet ended in a bad mood, and only a few people were left, who had not left yet because they were worried.
Gu Qingning: "My Lady..."
Concubine Rou hadn't reacted yet and was looking down at her hands.
After all, it was the first time to beat Su Fei, and that feeling... was quite special!
Besides being scared, you also feel a little refreshed?
Chen Ya looked at Concubine Rou's appearance and finally couldn't help herself, then she comforted Gu Qingning:
"Qing Ning, don't worry. Concubine Rou is here with me. Everything will be fine. You should also leave the palace quickly. You shouldn't stay for long."
Once the door is closed, it is the royal family's own business. If there are other people around, Your Majesty will not be able to save face.
If that were the case, it would be difficult for Your Majesty to justify siding with them and punishing Concubine Su.
Gu Qingning looked at Chen Ya's determined eyes, she felt relieved, and then held Roufei's still trembling hand.
"My Lady, I will come to the palace to see you in a few days and tell you about Xiyao."
Concubine Rou was still in a daze, she nodded.
Gu Qingning watched Chen Ya supporting Concubine Rou, with several palace maids surrounding them, as they walked towards the imperial study.
She turned around and looked at Princess Jiamin, "Are you going to stay here or leave the palace?"
Princess Jiamin: "I will accompany my mother to pay respects to the Queen Mother. I will come back to see you in two days."
Gu Qingning: "Okay."
She bowed to Princess Anhua, turned around and prepared to leave immediately.
Nalan Zhuer came over and said, "Qing Ning, can't we go and take a look? I'm curious about how His Majesty will make the final decision."
Although, it was indeed Concubine Rou who hit someone first.
But Concubine Su is going too far!
Nalan Zhu'er was really curious, which queen would be punished in the end?
Gu Qingning didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and reached out to touch Nalan Zhuer's forehead.
This person is really a person who is afraid of chaos in the world. He even dares to watch the royal family's excitement?
She even suspected that when Nalan Zhu'er was sent to southern Xinjiang for marriage, it was because Nalan Zhu'er had offended someone and the other party took the opportunity to kill her.
Fortunately, Nalan Zhu'er finally chose Cen Jue instead of a royal family member like the Sixth Prince.
Otherwise, he would have been cannon fodder long ago.
Gu Qingning: "There are many things going on in the palace today, so we should return home as soon as possible."
Nalan Zhu'er looked regretful, but she did not insist. Instead, she took Gu Qingning's arm and said:
"Then let's go together."
"good."
When the two of them walked out of the palace together, they saw the Cen family's carriage still parked there.
The person in the carriage should be Madam Cen who was close to Concubine Su just now.
Nalan Zhu'er exclaimed, "Oh no! How could I have forgotten about this sister-in-law?"
Gu Qingning remembered how Madam Cen was walking very close to Concubine Su just now.
She paused for a moment and said:
"Zhu'er, my carriage is broken. Can you take your Cen family's carriage and give me a ride?"
