The rebirth of a concubine: Gong Du will become the Queen Mother

Li Fei is always good at making noises, but when big things happen, she is a loser.

Concubine Jing is a good person who won't offend anyone. It is impossible for a person who is unwilling to offend others to take care of the affairs of the harem.

While he was still thinking, he heard his mother, the Queen Mother, say: "The Queen has been recovering from illness for two months. According to the Ai family, she is almost done. The Phoenix Seal should be placed in Fengyi Palace after all. Licai is justified."

Lu Zhaolin looked at her for a moment, then nodded and said, "What the queen said makes sense."

At this time, Concubine Hui suddenly knelt down.

Lu Zhaolin frowned: "Hui Fei, what are you doing?"

Concubine Hui first kowtowed, and then said: "Your Majesty, the reason why I have been neglecting food and food these days is not entirely due to a poor appetite during pregnancy, nor is it entirely due to the food served in the imperial dining room. The meal that came was hard to swallow. More importantly, it was because I was tortured by self-blame and regret and could not rest assuredly to raise the baby."

At this point, her voice started to become choked: "Gu Yu, who was by my side, harmed my sister. Although Gu Yu had already died to apologize, she was the one who served me closely. I didn't even tell him in advance." I noticed that I couldn't stop her from poisoning. I feel really guilty in my heart."

Lu Zhaolin didn't comment on her sincere performance and just said "oh".

Concubine Hui continued: "I request your majesty to take away my title and lower my status. Only in this way can I offset the guilt in my heart. Otherwise, I really have no face to see your majesty and no way to see you again." Goodbye sister Yan."

After saying that, she looked at Lu Zhaolin with her eyes filled with tears and pleading.

Lu Zhaolin originally thought that she was trying to defend himself with her eloquent tongue again. But he never thought that he would take the initiative to beg him to punish him.

He did not think that Concubine Hui was really innocent when it came to Ah Ying's poisoning.

However, considering that she has always been gentle and gentle in the past few years since she entered the palace. There were many good memories between him and Concubine Hui.

Lu Zhaolin thought to himself, hoping that she really realized her mistake.

Thinking like this, Lu Zhaolin said: "I am very happy that you can think like this. In this case, then I will remove your title and reduce it to -"

He wanted to say that he would be reduced to a concubine and hold Jiang Shiying's right hand, but he felt the strength tightening in an instant.

He thought of Jiang Shiying's tears and questions that day. She cried and asked if she was not good enough, and her injured palm.

The heart that originally missed the old love finally turned towards Jiang Shiying.

So, he finally said: "Demoted to the position of concubine."

In this way, even if Concubine Jiang gave birth to a child and was promoted to a noble concubine, Ah Ying would still have the upper hand over her because of her title.

Concubine Hui originally wanted to retreat to advance, but she didn't expect to be demoted three levels in a row, from the second level to the third level.

But fortunately, His Majesty has now punished her, and Jiang Shiying's poisoning is at least half over.

When Jiang Shiying harms her child, I think this matter will be over. And she will return to the position of concubine sooner or later, and even go higher and further.

Therefore, she did not show her inner disappointment, but accepted the order to express her gratitude with a look of relief.

The concubines and others around her have been her old rivals for many years, so how could they not understand what she was thinking.

Each and every one of them was mocking her for being so clever.

At the same time, they were all expecting in their hearts that the pure noble concubine would get into trouble with His Majesty over this matter.

Regardless of whether His Majesty takes a step back and imposes heavy punishment on the newly released Jiang Concubine.

His Majesty was still annoyed and neglected the pure noble concubines. In short, it only had advantages and no disadvantages for them.

At this time, I heard Concubine Jin say: "Your Majesty, Yonghe Palace has been burned to this state. Seeing that no one can live there in a short time, Sister Jiang Concubine may have to temporarily move elsewhere."

As soon as these words came out, many people looked at Zhen Meiren secretly.

Now among the twelve palaces in the East and West, only Yikun Palace, where Zhenmeiren is located, has not yet taken the throne.

Everyone originally thought that when Zhen Meiren's child was born, the chief position of Yikun Palace would definitely be hers.

But if Concubine Jiang moves there, then the main hall of Yikun Palace will have its owner.

But Lu Zhaolin said: "Concubine Jiang will live in Zuiyin Pavilion first, and then move back when Yonghe Palace is repaired."

By the time Lu Zhaolin and Jiang Shiying returned to Ganquan Palace, it was already the ugly hour.

After going through something like this, I can no longer continue to do half of the things I did before.

The two of them washed up in a hurry and got ready to go to bed.

"Ah Ying——"

In the darkness, Lu Zhaolin spoke first, wanting to tell Jiang Shiying what he was thinking when he demoted Concubine Hui to Jiang Concubine today.

But Jiang Shiying said: "Your Majesty, are all what Jiang Concubine said today true? Is it really Gu Yu's fault that I was poisoned and has nothing to do with her?"

Lu Zhaolin said: "What do you think, Ah Ying?"

Jiang Shiying said: "Ah Ying doesn't think so. Ah Ying feels that Gu Yu is just taking the blame for her. But in her heart, Ah Ying hopes that what she said is true. Isn't Ah Ying very spineless like this?"

After saying that, she buried her head in Lu Zhaolin's arms.

Lu Zhaolin felt a cloud of water vapor forming on his chest, and the body of the person in his arms was trembling slightly.

His hands gently patted and comforted Jiang Shiying's back.

He said: "No, it's not that you have no spine. We, Ying, are just too affectionate."

After a moment of silence, Jiang Shiying raised her head slightly and said with a hint of grievance in her voice: "Your Majesty, I don't want to forgive her."

In the darkness, Lu Zhaolin couldn't see her face clearly, so he only relied on his intuition to kiss her eyes and kiss away the tears from the corners of her eyes.

Then, he said: "Okay, I won't forgive her. I won't forgive her either."

On the second day, three quarters before Chen time, Yao Xingde knocked on the door on time: "Your Majesty, it's time to get up."

Lu Zhaolin slowly opened his eyes. His arm was somewhat numb after being used as a pillow all night.

He carefully pulled out his arm, but still woke up the sleeping beauty.

Jiang Shiying's eyes blinked twice, and then slowly opened, with the confusion and innocence in her eyes that she had just woken up.

Lu Zhaolin couldn't hold back and gently pressed a kiss on her cheek.

Jiang Shiying seemed to be still in a dream and didn't react at all. She just lay on the bed and looked at him with her big eyes blinking.

Lu Zhaolin felt that if he didn't leave this bed, he would be late for morning service today.

Jiang Shiying wanted to get up, but he pushed her back to the bed: "If you sleep a little longer, your eyes are still a little swollen."

Speaking of this, he felt distressed with a hint of regret. After she cried last night, she should have her eyes deswollen.

Jiang Shiying said: "I also want to pay my respects to the Queen."

Lu Zhaolin said: "I will ask someone to ask for leave for you."

Jiang Shiying shook her head: "On the first day when the Queen regained control of the Phoenix Seal, Aying took leave and did not go to pay her respects. It was too shameful. Didn't she become a demon concubine who deceived the king's heart?"

Lu Zhaolin pinched her cheeks with both hands and said, "You are the only one who dares to say anything."

But he no longer mentioned that she would not be allowed to pay her respects.

When Jiang Shiying arrived at Fengyi Palace, only the concubine and the queen were not there yet.

As soon as she sat down, she yawned.

Concubine Li looked at her and keenly noticed that her eyes were a little swollen, and asked, "Has Chungui concubine cried? Why do her eyes look a little swollen?"

While speaking, Concubine Li glanced towards Concubine Jiang.

Jiang Shiying glanced at Concubine Li and said, "Didn't Concubine Li cry on the dragon bed?"

These words, combined with the slight redness at the corners of her eyes, made people's throats burn for no reason.

Li Fei didn't expect her to answer like this. She cursed the goblin in her heart, but didn't say anything else.

After a while, the imperial concubine Shi Shiran arrived.

Everyone sitting in the hall stood up and saluted, and the imperial concubine said: "Everyone, please sit down. Sister Jiang Concubine is pregnant. It would be bad if she is tired."

There were two pregnant women in the palace, Jiang Concubine and Zhen Meiren, but she only targeted Jiang Concubine.

In addition to old grudges, there is also the fact that because of Concubine Jiang's incident yesterday, His Majesty took away her right to control the palace.

Everyone was already here, and the queen was not prepared to make them wait any longer.

Before going out, Hua Fan asked her, "My dear, don't you really dress more formally?"

In her opinion, the queen, who had been "recuperating" behind closed doors for more than two months and finally regained power, should dress solemnly and grandly to establish her authority in front of everyone.

But when the queen heard this, she just chuckled: "Even if I am wearing rags and rags, I am still your majesty's concubine, the queen of the country, the mother of the Jin Dynasty, and the master of the concubines outside. This magnanimity is not given by clothes and makeup. Yes, it comes from the bones.”

"Let's go."

After the words fell, the little eunuch sang loudly: "The Queen is here."
