Chapter 293 Betrayal of Concubine De Concubine

Ye knelt on the ground respectfully and kowtowed to Jiang Xinyue: "Your Majesty, I was ignorant in the past and always provoked Concubine Cheng and Concubine Liu to go against you. Now that I got into trouble, I know that you are kind-hearted. From now on, I will follow your lead. I hope you will forgive my ignorance in the past."

She, Concubine Cheng and Concubine Liu had a sworn friendship when they were in Chuxiu Palace. They said that good sisters share happiness and difficulties, but when they really left Chuxiu Palace, they turned against each other more ruthlessly.

Concubine Cheng had a high opinion of herself and thought she was the best and could be favored by the emperor, so she didn't take her and Concubine Liu seriously.

Normally, she looked down on others and despised her and Lady Liu for all their tricks.

But she never thought about it. If she didn't have a father who had made great contributions, how could the emperor even look at her?

Lady Liu always had her eyes on the top of her head. Her grandmother was a female official named Sima who had served the previous emperor. When she was old enough, she left the palace and married an official in their local area. She always brought it up and felt that her relationship with the emperor was special.

Only she had nothing.

It was also the intention of the Imperial Concubine to make her a constant concubine, because the emperor didn't take her seriously at all.

Now that she is in trouble, Cheng Jieyu and Lady Liu don't even want to save her because of their friendship in Chuxiu Palace. They all want to sever their relationship with her.

She thought she was going to die, but the Imperial Concubine rescued her.

"Lady Ye, please stand up. I don't deserve your thanks."

Jiang Xinyue smiled softly, "Although I have a reputation for being jealous, I can still distinguish right from wrong. If you did it, I will not forgive you. If you didn't do it, I will not wrongly accuse you. As long as you behave yourself in the future, I will naturally not make things difficult for you."

If the superiors were like this, there wouldn't be so many unjust, false and wrong cases in the world.

For the first time, Lady Ye felt that it would be nice if the Imperial Concubine was the queen to manage the harem.

While they were talking, another palace maid came outside to say that Concubine Jiang was coming. Concubine Ye did not leave, but retreated to sit on a small stool, watching with some envy as Concubine Jiang embraced the Sixth Prince without hesitation and played with him.

"I asked you to write a letter to Jiang Chuan, did you write it?"

Xi Que nodded immediately: "I wrote it, I wrote it, I asked him to guard the palace well and prevent De... prevent someone from framing me, and I also asked him to pick the grapes and keep them in an ice basin until we return, but we have to make grapes... that... what the Queen said to eat with shaved ice."

Although she didn't know what shaved ice was, the Queen was a food expert, and if she said it was delicious, it must be delicious.

...

Hexi Palace -

Jiang Chuan did not rashly invite the imperial physician. In the storehouse of Hexi Palace, there were various precious medicinal herbs and medicines. He did not understand medicine, but he knew a thing or two about simple hemostatic and anti-inflammatory herbs.

With the help of the palace maid and Lu Yin, Xiao Ronghua was "treated" to be a brand new person, and the three of them sat together.

"Tell me! How did you get in?"

Lu Yin took several deep breaths and prepared herself mentally before she spoke: "The wall of your vegetable garden didn't collapse by itself. It was sent by Concubine De to cover up the noise of the dog hole she dug on the other side."

"What?"

Jiang Chuan stood up: "Why did she come to smash our wall for no reason? And... you are the person Concubine De trusts the most, why should I trust you?"

Otherwise, they were setting a trap for him to frame his mother.

Xiao Ronghua was severely abused. Her face was disfigured. Her fingernails were all pulled out. There were wounds all over her body. Some of them were scabbed and some were still bleeding. Just now, several palace maids were scared and cried when they bandaged her.

Could it be that they wanted to hide Xiao Ronghua in their Hexi Palace, wait for the emperor to come back, and then capture her in one go for their queen?

What a vicious idea.

Seeing that Jiang Chuan didn't believe it, Lu Yin was so anxious that she slid down from the chair and slammed her forehead on the ground: "Eunuch Jiang, I... I don't want to betray the Empress Defei, but... I... I don't want to die, I want to live, I'm already 23 years old, and I will be released from the palace in two years, I really don't want to die. The Empress Defei... she is sadistic and murderous. In the past, she only targeted the concubines and palace maids in the cold palace, but now she has started to kill people in her own palace. I'm going crazy, I'm really going crazy."

If she wasn't crazy, how could she dare to release Xiao Ronghua and crawl into the Hexi Palace through the dog hole to seek shelter.

In this palace, no one dared to intervene except the Imperial Concubine.

"I don't know why the Empress Defei wanted to dig a dog hole to get out. The Empress did not arrange for me to take the next step, but because of this dog hole, I had the idea of ​​rescuing Xiao Ronghua. She is the only one who survived the torture and killing by the Empress. If the Imperial Concubine wants to overthrow her, Xiao Ronghua is the best evidence."

Jiang Chuan did not speak. He still had some doubts in his heart. He could not easily believe her for fear of harming his own Empress.

"Empress Defei... Empress Defei killed the two princes of the previous emperor. Even the nanny of the sixth prince was burned to death by white phosphorus powder. It was Empress Defei's father, Duke Cheng, who bribed Madam Zhu's maid and instigated Madam Zhu to do it."

In other words, Empress Defei wanted to kill the sixth prince!

After two such explosive news broke out in a row, Jiang Chuan finally believed her: "Tell me, what do you want me to do?"

Lu Yin raised her head, hope rekindled in her eyes: "Eunuch Jiang, you just need to hide Xiao Ronghua and don't let her die. When the Imperial Concubine comes back, Xiao Ronghua and I will expose the true face of Concubine De in front of the Emperor. I... I don't ask for anything else, I only ask the Imperial Concubine to show mercy and allow me to leave the palace early. I don't want to stay in this palace for a moment." It

's terrible!

Jiang Chuan's eyes sparkled: "If what you said is true, I will naturally explain it to the Empress, but if you dare to deceive me, our Empress has plenty of ways to take your life."

"Don't worry, Eunuch Jiang, I dared to come here tonight because I have made up my mind and will never deceive you."

She looked at the dawning sky outside: "It's getting late, I should go back, otherwise the Empress Defei will get suspicious."

Watching Lu Yin crawl out of the dog hole, Jiang Chuan was puzzled: "The Empress Defei went to such great lengths to dig a dog hole here, what on earth is she going to do?"

"Eunuch Jiang, there is another bunch of grapes here, do you want to pick them?"

Several gardeners and fruit craftsmen came early in the morning and were also very concerned about the purple jade grapes. This is related to whether they can succeed, and they cannot be careless at all.

"Pick them!"

Jiang Chuan hurried over and said, "The queen even wrote to ask about it. I want to eat it when I get back."
