Chapter 456: Concubine Lang Gui has lost favor
Si Linglong's carriage had just arrived at the palace gate when Helian Yue had already received the news from the secret guards.
I know that she has returned to the palace safely, and I also know that Xie Yun quietly watched her return from the dark...
"Humph." Helian Yue snorted coldly and asked Fu Tai, "How are the preparations at Yuxiu Palace going?"
"Everything has been prepared according to the emperor's wishes." Fu Tai paused and asked, "Does the emperor want to come and take a look in person?"
Helian Yue heard this, but he was not in a hurry, "No, let her see for herself."
Seeing that Helian Yue was in a good mood, Fu Tai smiled and agreed, "The emperor specially selected the bedroom for you, you must be happy."
Helian Yue did not comment upon hearing this, but his eyebrows slightly raised imperceptibly, as if to say that it was natural.
…
On the other side, Si Linglong got off the carriage and stepped into the palace wall again after a long absence. Thinking about meeting Helian Yue later, she couldn't help feeling a little heavy.
She didn't even have time to confirm whether what Zhu Sha said was true or false.
While he was thinking about it, the palace maid had already carried the sedan chair over.
According to her status as a noble concubine, she was not supposed to ride in a sedan chair, but the distance from the palace gate to the palace was so long, and the weather was still cold, so Helian Yue naturally could not let her walk by herself.
Si Linglong had no idea what she should do with her position, but seeing a sedan chair, she sat on it as a matter of course.
She was not in a good mood. She sat on the sedan chair and let the palace maids carry her, with the red and green flowers tied loosely on both sides.
Until the sedan chair passed through the long alley and turned into another heavy door.
Shuhong and Qinglu looked at each other silently without saying anything. They turned their gaze to Si Linglong in the sedan chair, but saw that she was tilting her head as if in a daze, and obviously didn't notice anything was wrong.
It was not until the palace maids finally stopped the sedan chair in front of a palace that Si Linglong calmed down and looked up, and was stunned.
"Where is this?"
[This is not A Yue's Linghua Palace. ]
"Replying to Guipin, this is Yuxiu Palace, which is the bedroom specially arranged for Guipin by the Emperor."
This is the explanation given by the young eunuch accompanying the chariot.
Si Linglong looked at the three words "Yuxiu Palace" hanging on the palace door, and her mood was nothing but complicated.
If it had been before, if A Yue had arranged a palace for her, she might have been happy to have her own place.
But now, she was suddenly moved from the side hall of Linghua Palace to the back palace without any preparation, and Si Linglong's already uneasy heart was even more troubled.
[What does Ah Yue mean by this? Why did he suddenly change my palace? Has he given up on me?]
[It’s over. If this continues, I’m going to become an emo. ]
Si Linglong was roaring madly in her heart, and her face was filled with confusion and loss that she couldn't hide.
The young eunuch standing by originally thought that he would receive a surprised reaction from Lang Guipin. He had even thought about how he would describe Lang Guipin's reaction in front of the emperor in order to ask for reward when he returned.
But this...
How do you describe this?
What Si Linglong didn't know was that her lost and depressed expression outside Yuxiu Palace was also seen by the palace maids who were spying on her.
As soon as they learned that the emperor had suddenly assigned a sleeping palace to Concubine Langgui again, the concubines in the palace who were unable to go on the winter hunt began to make some plans.
If someone else is given a position in the palace, it can be said to be the emperor's favor, but it also depends on the circumstances.
The Emperor initially disregarded the ancestral rules and insisted on letting Concubine Langgui live in the side hall of Linghua Palace. Which concubine in the harem would not be jealous of this honor of being pampered under her nose every day?
But now, the honor of Lang Guipin is gone, she was "driven" back to the harem, and now giving her a bedroom is not a promotion, it is a demotion.
Not only that, the emperor also appointed a new lady named Shen Guiren during his winter hunting trip, and brought her into the harem without even waiting for him to return to the palace. This inevitably led people to speculate that the emperor had a new love.
Another thing is, no matter whether the Emperor returned to the palace yesterday or Concubine Langgui returned to the palace today, His Highness Xuesha was never seen inside or outside the palace.
Everyone in the palace knew the nobility of this little prince. Now Xue Sha was missing, but Si Linglong was left outside the palace for a day. When she came back, Xue Sha was still missing. The concubines connected the dots and reasoned that Lang Guipin must have been left outside the palace by the emperor because she lost the little prince Xue Sha. Now that she has returned, Fox has not returned, which means that he has not been found.
First she lost the emperor's favor, and then she was sent out of Linghua Palace and moved back to the harem, where there was also a "new lover".
Even though the current Yuxiu Palace was arranged by Eunuch Futai himself, these people still secretly guessed that Concubine Langgui must have fallen out of favor.
If they had previously thought that this guess was 70% to 80% likely, now that they heard the palace servants they had sent out talk about the lonely and depressed look that Concubine Lang Gui had on her face as she faced the gate of Yuxiu Palace, all the concubines came to a very certain conclusion—
Concubine Lang Gui has lost favor!!
