Abandoning concubines and raising children to seize the throne

The Queen Mother gave her a sharp look.

"You want to find a Taoist priest just after the monk incident. Do you think Ye Jingyu will agree? Why can't you be smarter when talking?"

Lu Jingxian bit her lip and said, "What should we do? Are we just going to watch her run rampant in the harem?"

"Of course not."

The Queen Mother glanced sharply out of the window and said: "The Ai family heard that the emperor wanted to re-investigate the Yin family's affairs. If Yin Zhong cannot return to the court, she will have no support. The emperor's favor is just a mirror, and it cannot last forever. We must I have to find someone else in the palace to share her favor."

Hearing this, Lu Jingxian was unhappy again.

"If you find someone else to charm the emperor, will he still focus on me?"

The Queen Mother said with hatred: "If you don't find someone, will he put his mind on you? You didn't do all this yourself. The Ai family asked you to have more contact with the princess. Did you listen?" Aijia’s words.”

Lu Jingxian immediately shut her mouth.

She despises Ye Haitang. Ye Haitang's mother-in-law was not favored when the late emperor was alive. Even if Ye Jingyu is good to her, he can't go there often, so what's the use of leaving her alone.

The Queen Mother saw what she was thinking, and snorted coldly: "If you want to please Ye Jingyu, you must first please the person he likes. Now that you and Yin Qingxuan have a difficult grudge, you can only attack the princess. If you don't Listen, the Ai family can't help you."

Lu Jingxian bit her lip and said, "I know, I will go find the princess soon."

While talking, Cui Hai came to report.

"Queen Mother, Little Master Xu is here."

The Queen Mother put her hands on the soft cushions beside her.

"Let her in."

A moment later, Xu Zhiyuan walked in from outside.

She held up the hem of her skirt and bowed down.

"Xu Zhiyuan meets the Queen Mother and the Concubine Xian."

The Queen Mother looked at her and said coldly: "As a beautiful girl in the harem, you don't stay well in your own Shuiyun Pavilion, but you go to Jinwu Palace to form gangs. What are your intentions? Could it be that you Do you also think that Concubine Yao can cover the sky with one hand, and Aijia is no longer in her eyes?"

Xu Zhiyuan was startled and hurriedly knelt down and said, "I don't dare, I, my concubine."

The Queen Mother slapped the table and said: "You dare to stay in Jinwu Palace for one night. Why don't you dare? The most taboo thing in the harem is forming cliques for personal gain, but you openly win over the concubines and disregard the laws of the harem. Cui Hai, Give me a hand on her mouth."

Cui Hai immediately came over, grabbed Xu Zhiyuan's bun and beat her.

Cui Hai was an eunuch, and he was also a man. With two slaps, blood flowed from Xu Zhiyuan's nostrils.

Upon seeing this, Han Bing rushed over to protect his master.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me, my father-in-law, please forgive me. I just went over to take a look. Because it was raining heavily and it was difficult to walk, I stayed in Jinwu Palace. I have never formed a party for personal gain, and I don't dare to ignore the palace rules. Please be kind to the Queen Mother and spare my master." Bar."

Cui Hai kicked her aside.

"You have no business talking about this. Get out of here."

Lu Jingxian then said: "This damn girl can speak harshly, Cuizhu, go teach me a lesson."

"Yes."

Cuizhu immediately rolled up her sleeves, grabbed Han Bing and gave her a slap in the face.

The master and servant were beaten until they moaned repeatedly, and their fair and tender faces instantly became red and swollen.

It wasn't until they could no longer scream that the Queen Mother ordered them to be released.

She looked at Xu Zhiyuan and said with a sneer: "Remember this for the Ai family. As long as the Ai family is still alive, the Ai family will have the final say in the harem. If you dare to get close to Concubine Yao again, the Ai family will never I will let you go, Cui Hai, take them down!"

After the two left, Lu Jingxian asked: "Aunt, why don't you tell her about the poison in the cake, so that she can understand."

The Queen Mother snorted and said: "We have already eaten the food. Now that we are dead and there is no proof, there is no use in talking about it. It is better to separate her and Yin Qingxuan."

Lu Jingxian said with a smile on her face, "My aunt is still awesome. If she does this, she will never dare to go to that little bitch Yin Qingxuan again."

The Queen Mother curled her lips and smiled. "Yes, this is what the Ai family wants."

outside the palace.

Han Bing cried and supported Xu Zhiyuan, sobbing and saying: "Master, why do you need to see Concubine Yao? You don't want to compete for the emperor's favor, so why do you have to push yourself to the forefront."

Xu Zhiyuan endured the pain and lowered her head for fear that the palace people would see her miserable condition.

"Stop talking, this is our life."

Han Bing cried: "Life is earned by oneself. The Yao Concubine was able to come out of the Cold Palace, and now she changed her name and became the Empress of the Jinwu Palace. Didn't she earn it all by herself? The young master obviously had the opportunity to let her live. It's better, why do you have to think so? If the little master is favored, the adults will follow suit."

"Okay, shut up."

Xu Zhiyuan lowered her head and quickened her pace, her eyes filled with gloom.

There was even a slight wavering in my heart.

Her father sent her to the palace in the hope that she could win the emperor's favor and bring happiness to the entire Xu family.

What have you done now?

Not only was she unable to protect herself, but even her maids had to suffer along with her.

She also knew that the Queen Mother targeted her because she did not join the Queen Mother in dealing with Yin Qingxuan.

But Yin Qingxuan is Yin Xingyun's biological sister, how can she deal with her?

Thinking of the look Yin Xingyun gave him again, his heart instantly softened again.

Even if there is no result between her and him, she still wants to stay for him, just like a woman would do to her husband...

As I was walking in a hurry, I suddenly heard someone shouting: "Xiao Master Xu, what's wrong with you...?"

Han Bing raised his head and immediately saw Xiao Anzi, and tears fell again.

He said angrily: "It's not because she stayed in your Jinwu Palace for one night that the Queen Mother caused trouble for our little master."

"Ice!"

Xu Zhiyuan scolded and said to Xiao Anzi: "It's okay, let's go back first."

After saying that, he took Han Bing and left.

Looking at the red and swollen cheeks of the two people, Xiao Anzi felt the need to tell the empress and immediately ran back to Jinwu Palace.

Yin Qingxuan was teasing Xiao Nanfeng in the room. The little boy got up after sleeping for less than half an hour and threw the card that Yin Qingxuan had changed for him on the bed, like a theft scene.

While picking it up, Yin Qingxuan taught him how to recognize the picture above.

"Butterflies, dragonflies, dogs..."

Hearing the dog Xiao Nanfeng, he immediately turned his face. He still remembered Bai Xue. The little fat finger pointed at the card and opened his mouth and said: "Woof~!"

Yin Qingxuan was amused by the way Xiao Nanfeng's eyes widened. She hugged him, kissed her, and praised, "Yes, it's Wang. If you like it, Mom will ask Bai Xue to come over and play with you."

Xiao Nanfeng seemed to understand what Yin Qingxuan said, and immediately waved her little hands happily.

Xiao Anzi has walked in from outside.

"Mother, something seems to have happened."
