Chapter 351 Moving the Palace
Xuanyuan Ling accompanied him for lunch, after all, he had something to do in the afternoon. After he left Zhaohua Palace, Zhao Hai told him about Chu Linglong.
Xuanyuan Ling glanced at Zhao Hai and said, "Go and deliver some things."
Zhao Hai thought to himself that this Concubine Yi was also not worthy of attention.
Xuanyuan Ling still felt a bit of sympathy for Chu Linglong after she had a miscarriage. But after seeing that she became pregnant, he became restless. Now that the child was gone, it was all because of her own maid's carelessness. Although it was all excusable, the emperor no longer had any sympathy for her.
Zhao Hai agreed, and when Xuanyuan Ling went to the imperial study to deal with things, he went to Chu Linglong.
Chu Linglong was waiting for some movement from Xuanyuan Ling. After waiting for a long time, Zhao Hai arrived.
Should I say it was unexpected? Actually, it was not unexpected. She was indeed out of favor. Now that the child was gone, the emperor didn't have to come in person.
But when Zhao Hai saw the wound on Chu Linglong's head, he still wanted to ask: "How did you get hurt, sir?"
Chu Linglong was pale at the moment, with a white cloth wrapped around her head, and she looked even more haggard: "I was hit."
It couldn't have happened for no reason, could it? She had just given birth to a premature baby, and she was still weak, and it looked like she couldn't even get out of bed.
Zhao Hai thought about it and found out that Chu Linglong didn’t complain right away, so he didn’t ask any more questions.
After asking about other physical conditions and putting down the gifts, he left.
When the palace maid who served Chu Linglong saw that Chu Linglong didn't say anything, she thought Chu Linglong would ask Zhao Hai to report to the emperor.
Who would have thought that just as I was thinking this, Chu Linglong said: "Go to Fengyi Palace and tell them that I want to move palaces."
The maid was a little afraid: "This, Empress Rufei..."
There has to be a reason to move the palace. Isn't it obvious that Concubine Ru is looking for trouble to complain to the Empress?
Previously, the palace maid was afraid that Chu Linglong would complain to the emperor, and now she was also afraid that she would complain to the empress.
Because even if the Empress agreed to move the palace, Concubine Ru's position was still there. If something like this happened, how could Concubine Ru save her face? Wouldn't she hate Chu Linglong to death?
The maid whispered: "In fact, if the emperor knew, he might not punish the concubine."
Chu Linglong sneered with a hint of sarcasm: "Yes."
The palace maid couldn't quite believe it. After all, Chu Linglong was out of favor, and the prince had died young and had a miscarriage. Even though Concubine Ru's words were unpleasant to hear, they were unlucky anyway, right?
But Chu Linglong insisted, what else could she do? Before leaving, Chu Linglong instructed again: "Remember to find someone to deliver the medicine, and don't neglect those who served me before and were injured."
Chu Linglong looked at the two new palace maids and found them unsatisfactory. She also knew that Ming Su had acted on her own initiative. To be fair, Ming Su was also responsible for her premature birth. If she hadn't taken the initiative to give her Concubine Xi's soup and concealed it, how could she have had a premature birth?
But she is indeed loyal, and it is not easy to find a loyal person in the harem.
Chu Linglong watched the palace maid leave expressionlessly.
Zhao Hai went to report back, and not long after he did, the Queen received news that Chu Linglong was planning to move to another palace.
Normally, if a concubine wanted to move to another palace, she had to have a reason and she had to go there on her own. But Chu Linglong had just given birth prematurely, so it was a special case. When the Queen heard the news, she had to send someone to find Chu Linglong and ask her about it.
When Concubine Ru found out about this, she was so angry that she smashed something. Chu Linglong was so bold. She was just a noble lady, and now she had no child, yet she dared to challenge her openly? She was a concubine after all, it was just a small matter, and she had a purpose. So what if she accidentally bumped into something?
Dare to move the palace?
Concubine Ru had already thought in her mind that no matter where Chu Linglong moved to in the future, she would have to forget about it when she saw her next time.
But she was also afraid in her heart. When Zhao Hai came before, Concubine Ru didn't feel anything. She just felt that the emperor really didn't care about Chu Linglong. But the wound was so obvious on the head.
It's always eye-catching.
The Queen found it funny when she heard about Concubine Ru. Right now the harem was not peaceful and the Emperor was just getting annoyed. Concubine Ru really knew how to pick the right time. Of course, she would not go and complain on behalf of Chu Linglong, but the Emperor had to be informed of the concubine's move to another palace. This was also the rule.
So Xuanyuan Ling knew that Chu Linglong was going to move to another palace.
It was originally a trivial matter, but Chu Linglong's situation was special at the moment. She had just given birth prematurely and hadn't even finished her confinement yet. She had to move the baby right after she woke up.
He asked, "Why do you want to move the palace?"
The Queen didn't say anything, but how could Zhao Hai not know? He knew it when he went there. He was the one he went to see. Now that the Emperor asked, how could he not answer: "When I went there, I saw that Concubine Yi had a forehead injury."
The man had just woken up and was supposed to be unable to get out of bed, yet he injured his forehead for no reason and was in a hurry to move. It was obvious who did this.
Xuanyuan Ling was also annoyed. There were constant things going on in the harem. "Go check it out."
This tone is not very good.
Zhao Hai knew that Concubine Ru was probably going to kill herself this time, so when he came out, he told Xiao Xia Zi to ask Chu Linglong what was going on with the palace maid, and also to ask someone to find out if this matter was related to Concubine Ru.
In fact, this is just a step, Zhao Hai understands it very well.
After a while, Zhao Hai knew the whole story.
Knowing that, he naturally reported it to Xuanyuan Ling. Xuanyuan Ling, upon hearing this, said expressionlessly: "If the concubine's virtue is not worthy of the position, strip her of her title and demote her to a concubine."
Zhao Hai thought to himself, as expected, Concubine Ru, oh no, now it’s Concubine Zheng, this Concubine Zheng has really caught up.
The Emperor was just feeling upset about the poisoning of Concubine Xi in the harem, and now something strange has happened again. Has something happened?
But in his heart he thought that Concubine Yi really knew how to pick the right time. If this matter had happened at another time, after a month or so, when she was out of confinement and wanted to move to the palace, the Emperor would not have asked about it.
But didn't she just give birth prematurely? And she was implicated because of Concubine Xi's matter. The emperor always felt sorry for her. Moreover, although the fifth prince was gone, his name was restored. Although the emperor said he would not go in person, didn't he ask him to go? He didn't just find someone to go, which meant he had some feelings for her.
Concubine Ru is so impatient that she is looking for trouble with Concubine Yi at this time. Isn't this just Concubine Yi turning the tables on her?
Zhao Hai handled this matter very quickly, and Concubine Ru received the imperial edict immediately. She was stunned.
Ru Fei was unwilling to admit it, and said to Zhao Hai: "Eunuch, there is something strange about this matter. She got hurt by herself."
Zhao Hai actually didn't want to listen to Concubine Ru's excuses, and he was about to leave.
But Concubine Ru said, "Please report this to the Emperor, I asked the maidservant next to her afterwards. She threw herself at me and the maidservant just pulled her away. She fell on her own. I was just afraid that the blood in her room would be unlucky, so I brought some Buddhist incense to fumigate it."
Although she was avoiding the main point, Concubine Ru still asked.
After all, Chu Linglong's direct report to the Queen about the move to the palace had caused a big stir. Concubine Ru was afraid that it would be difficult to explain herself when the time came, so she immediately summoned the palace maids at that time to ask them about the situation. In fact, Chu Linglong's fall was strange at that time. The palace maids did not dare to use much force without the order of their master, but Chu Linglong fell so miserably at that time. Thinking about it afterwards, she always felt that something was wrong.
Could Zhao Hai really report back? He was not Ru Fei's servant. The emperor was already upset enough at the moment, and he still had to report back after finishing his work.
After all, Concubine Ru can’t wash away the fact that she brought people to seek misfortune, and she is not wronged in this matter.
Zhao Hai just said: "I will take my leave."
However, whether he didn't intend to report it or not is another matter. In fact, it was quite strange that Concubine Ru directly injured someone's face. Concubine Ru was confused and not a good person. But Concubine Yi was lying in bed to recuperate after giving birth, and she could have been pulled down and hit on the head by her?
After all, Zhao Hai knew that Concubine Yi was quite thoughtful.
The final result of this incident was that Concubine Ru humiliated Concubine Yi because of her premature birth. When the emperor found out, he was furious and demoted Concubine Ru's position and stripped her of her title.
The matter was settled. No matter how resentful Concubine Ru felt, she couldn't say anything. Besides, there was the lesson of Qin. Qin was Concubine Yu at first and then demoted to Concubine Qin. Now, not only was she sent to the cold palace because she poisoned Concubine Xi, but she also implicated the entire Qin family.
Although Concubine Ru hated Chu Linglong, she did not dare to act rashly.
After Xuanyuan Ling gave instructions about Concubine Zheng, he no longer cared about the matter. He also didn't care about other matters such as Chu Linglong's confinement. However, he specifically instructed Concubine Ji to be careful.
In fact, even if he didn't give the order, Concubine Ji would have been careful. The incident with Chu Linglong was a lesson for her. It was really a fight between gods and mortals. Concubine Xi was a favorite concubine, so it was not surprising that someone was watching her. But she never expected that Concubine Yi would give birth prematurely because of this. Really, Concubine Ji was shocked.
Fortunately, her problem of vomiting everything she eats has not been cured yet, and she has been well-behaved, so there is no problem at all. Anyway, Ji Meiren has become more low-key since then.
Xuanyuan Ling was busy for several days because of the Qin family's affairs. After all, the vacancies had to be filled after the investigation, and they could not be filled casually. There were many people watching him, and many people who wanted to ask for their hands in the court. The emperor and his subjects were not master and servants, and it was like a game.
After finally finishing this matter, the Chinese New Year is approaching. At least I managed to finish it before the Chinese New Year.
Xuanyuan Ling can have a comfortable year.
It always snows during the Chinese New Year. This year, Chunhua Fangyun and Wang Lu are all staring at her. Her belly is very obvious now. She is five months pregnant.
I'm afraid that she might slip again outside. Now, whenever Shen Qing goes out, she is surrounded by people.
On this day, Chen Qing saw that the weather was good, the sky had cleared up after the snow, and the air was good, so he hurried out for a walk, and so a bunch of people followed him out.
She was wearing a thick cloak with a hood, and Chunhua looked at the road carefully, fearing that there were stones or something on the road, or water on the ground, fearing that the water would soak Shen Qing's shoes and freeze her feet.
She thought that it was winter and it had just snowed, so the plum blossoms would look beautiful in the snow, so she planned to go to Wanmei Garden to take a look.
So a large group of people went to Wanmei Garden.
The plum blossoms in Wanmei Garden are in full bloom, and they are indeed fragrant. Moreover, the smell is very pleasant because of the snow water. Chen Qing even asked someone to bring food when he went to appreciate the flowers. Looking at the plum blossoms outside, eating bird's nest and milk for a day is also a unique flavor, isn't it?
Xuanyuan Ling happened to go to Zhaohua Palace, but when he asked, he found out that the person had gone to Wanmei Garden, so he turned to Wanmei Garden and saw a scene when he arrived there.
I saw Shen Qing was wrapped tightly, she was wearing a cloak that covered herself tightly, and she had a hood on her head. The hood had a fur edge, revealing a delicate little face, just like a little rabbit crawling out of a hole. At this moment, she was holding something in her hands and eating, she looked so cute.
Xuanyuan Ling's heart softened when he saw this, but it was so cold, and they still had to walk such a long way to come here to eat something, huh.
At this time, the others saw Xuanyuan Ling and saluted him.
He waved his hand and asked everyone to leave.
Walking up to Shen Qing, he said angrily, “What’s the matter? Is it better to eat here?”
"yes."
She admitted it, and did it very clearly.
Xuanyuan Ling was speechless for a moment, but what else could he do? He just pretended that nothing happened. He sat down next to her and saw that she had prepared quite a lot. The bird's nest and milk soup was just one of the dishes, and there was also a small crispy cake the size of half a palm. Xuanyuan Ling saw that she seemed to have a good appetite, so he pinched a piece of the crispy cake and ate it.
He looked out and saw the red plum blossoms and the white snow dotted on top, which looked beautiful.
Shen Qing's stomach was not actually that big. The bigger her stomach was, the more it pushed against her stomach. She was not unable to eat, but her stomach was indeed not that big. After eating for a while, she felt a little full, so she stopped eating. Looking at the plum blossoms, she had other thoughts: "Your Majesty, pick plum blossoms for me."
Xuanyuan Ling glared at her when he saw her eager look. How dare she pick flowers by herself?
"Don't jump around. I'll have someone move a few pots to Zhaohua Palace later."
Shen Qing was also stubborn at this moment. When he thought about it, he felt that what was moved was moved, and what was picked was picked. How could they be the same?
She just wanted to pick one at this moment, so she held it in her hand and shook it for fun.
It was quite childish, but Shen Qing suddenly wanted to do this on a whim.
She just stared at Xuanyuan Ling.
Xuanyuan Ling didn't insist on it at first, but he can still insist on it now? That's not possible: "Which one do you want?"
He stood up, and Shen Qing was happy. Then they went under the plum tree. Shen Qing was short, but Xuanyuan Ling was tall. She looked at it from below and pointed: "I want that one."
Xuanyuan Ling picked one for her, and saw her holding it in her hand and shaking it a few times, which made him laugh.
In fact, she was very beautiful. He couldn't take his eyes off her. Shen Qing's hands were well-made and well-maintained. They were white and tender even in winter. She was pinching the red plum and waving it around. There were little stars in her eyes. She looked so happy that people couldn't help but curl their lips when they saw her. But at this moment, Shen Qing's movements suddenly paused, and she hissed and subconsciously covered her stomach.
"What's wrong?" Xuanyuan Ling's face changed instantly.
Shen Qing looked at Xuanyuan Ling in confusion.
Xuanyuan Ling's heart was hanging in his throat: "Don't scare me, come, call..."
He was about to call the imperial physician, but Shen Qing interrupted him and she said, “It’s okay.”
Xuanyuan Ling's sudden startle made her angry. She was furious, but she didn't know how to deal with her: "You've learned bad things, haven't you? Why are you scaring me like this?"
"No." Shen Qing's expression was still a little unbelievable. She pursed her lips and pulled Xuanyuan Ling's hand, then placed it on her belly.
Xuanyuan Ling only felt something move, but he was also stunned for a moment.
Shen Qing whispered: "He moved."
