An Lingrong's Rebirth: Red
Chapter 131 Official Girl
Liu Zhu was stunned for a moment. She naturally didn't believe that the young lady would send someone to kill her. What Concubine Hui said was just a tactic to sow discord.
If Xiao Yunzi obeyed the young lady's order and wanted to kill me, I would not be able to live here and talk with Concubine Hui.
"If there is someone who wants my life, it should be Lady Hui."
Liu Zhu recalled the torture she suffered in the Old Summer Palace, being locked up in an unknown place for a long time and having her face almost disfigured by the red-hot iron.
"You have locked me up for such a long time, preventing me from returning to the palace, and even from accompanying the young lady in Baohua Palace.
Xiao Yunzi was even more miserable, he was almost beaten to death by the young master's men.
Under our young master, Xiao Yunzi and I have never suffered such pain before."
Shen Meizhuang was speechless for a moment. She looked at Liu Zhu defending Zhen Huan at the top of her lungs and felt tired.
Fuling and Caixing on the side were both filled with anger. Fuling couldn't bear it any longer and slapped Liuzhu in the face.
Liu Zhu subconsciously wanted to fight back, but Cai Xing grabbed his wrist and pushed him aside.
"Concubine Zhen framed our young master and the heir to the throne, and even personally gave the medicine to abort the young master's fetus.
Liu Zhu, if you were not stupid, you would know that your Concubine Zhen is no longer a kind person.
She would do anything for love, sisterly love, master-servant relationship, she only has herself in her heart!"
Cai Xing stood in front of Shen Meizhuang and Fuling, glaring at Liu Zhu who was trying to step forward to explain, "Because of your spoiled master, Cai Yue was accused of murdering the heir to the throne and died without even a body left!
You should continue to be loyal to your Concubine Zhen, until she sends you to the mass grave as well."
"Cai Xing!" Shen Meizhuang hurriedly called Cai Xing. After all, the emperor was still in the garden, and she was afraid that the emperor would hear her if she spoke so loudly.
If she were charged with the serious crime of disturbing the Holy Emperor, she would suffer physical pain at the very least, or even lose her life at the worst.
Cai Xing reacted quickly. She immediately stopped talking and returned to Shen Meizhuang, quietly supporting her master, as if she was not the one who had just scolded Liu Zhu.
On the other hand, Liu Zhu was speechless after hearing what Cai Xing said. Her face turned red, and it was unclear whether she was because of the beating from Cai Xing or because she was angry.
She knew everything Zhen Huan had done, but she was still defending her, finding some lame and ridiculous excuses to try to convince the victimized Concubine Hui.
If I tell others about it, I'm afraid they will believe Liu Zhu. After all, the queen is forcing her, how can a concubine resist?
But Shen Meizhuang knew very well that even if the Queen threatened them, the two of them could set up a plan to expose the Queen's actions to the sun.
The Empress Dowager murdered the royal heirs, so even if she keeps her position, she will end up being imprisoned in Jingren Palace.
Why did the sisters have to turn against each other to the point where it has come to this?
"I know you are wrong," Liu Zhu's attitude finally softened, and she knelt down with a plop, "but the mastermind behind this is really the one in Jingren Palace, and Liu Zhu would never dare to deceive you about this matter.
The sisters turning against each other is what the other person wants to see the most, but it is not what the young master wants to see.
Now that I know a secret, I only hope that it will be of use to you, my lord. If I can take this opportunity to rescue the young lady from Baohua Palace, I am willing to serve you like a slave."
Shen Meizhuang naturally had no shortage of people who would work hard for her, and she didn't want to forgive Zhen Huan just like that, so she tried her best to save her.
Therefore, she did not intend to say much to Liu Zhu, and just left with the two maids.
Fuling passed by Liuzhu and deliberately stepped on the plum blossoms she had dropped on the ground. Finally, she spat at Liuzhu as if she was still not satisfied.
Liu Zhu didn't want to give up, so she chased for two more steps, but was still left behind by Concubine Hui and the others.
At this moment, snowflakes suddenly fell. Liu Zhu stood there in a daze for a long time before he remembered that he had to pick plum blossoms for Concubine Tian.
When she returned, she found that the plum blossoms had been trampled. She held the broken branches and looked around helplessly.
The grievances in her heart burst out in an instant at this moment. She shed tears and wished she could run to Baohua Palace immediately and tell the young lady about her grievances.
But Concubine Tian is his master now, and he must bring the plum blossom back to the Yanx Palace no matter what.
But now that the emperor is in the garden, how dare I go there to pick plum blossoms?
"Why are you crying here? Are you worried about the plum blossoms?" Jixiang held a few plum blossoms in his arms and looked at Liuzhu with concern. "The plum blossoms will bloom for a long time. There is no need to be sad for these two."
Liu Zhu shook her head and looked down at the broken branch in her hand. "I picked flowers for Lady Tian. If I can't bring them back today, I'm afraid I'll be scolded."
"I thought it was a big deal." Jixiang didn't care. She took two branches from her hand and handed them to Liuzhu, "This is good. Although it is not the Yuxintan plum from Yimei Garden, this Biejiao Wanshui is also a treasure.
If I bring it back to Yanxi Palace, I'm sure Concubine Tian will like it too."
Liu Zhu took the plum blossom and held Jixiang's hand with great gratitude, "Thank you, sister Jixiang."
Jixiang smiled and nodded, and took out a handkerchief from his bosom to wipe Liuzhu's tears. "This place is not far from Chuxiu Palace. Go and warm yourself up. Your face and hands are so red. It will be bad if you get frostbite."
Liuzhu wanted to refuse, but Jixiang did not give her the chance. He simply took Liuzhu's hand and took her to Chuxiu Palace.
Liu Zhu was still relieved at this time. After all, Concubine Duan had a good relationship with the young lady, and the young lady also asked Imperial Doctor Wen to treat Concubine Duan.
In addition, there is a deep-seated grudge between Concubine Duan and Concubine Hua, and Concubine Duan is in a high position of power. If she were to tell Concubine Hua about accepting bribes, she would surely have a chance to overthrow Concubine Hua and avenge the young lady.
One of them wanted to see her, and the other wanted to find out more. Liu Zhu quickly told Concubine Duan everything she knew.
But Concubine Duan was very smart. She did not immediately agree to Liu Zhu's request. Instead, she said that she would find a way to rescue Zhen Changzai from the sea of suffering.
Once Concubine Zhen regains her position and favor, there will still be time to plan how to deal with Concubine Hua.
Concubine Duan's health is getting better day by day, and she has begun to receive care from the Emperor and the Empress Dowager. Her life is much better than before in Yanqing Palace.
So she could wait, wait for Zhen Huan to come out of Baohua Palace, wait for Zhen Huan to rise again.
She will help Zhen Huan and help her take revenge on Concubine Hua.
Liu Zhu was unaware of Concubine Duan's plan and still believed that her master was saved. She had no idea that Concubine Hua's acceptance of bribes would implicate both the former court and the harem.
It was too early for her, a little palace maid, to stir up trouble.
But at this moment, a huge stone fell from her heart, and Liuzhu happily returned to the Yanxi Palace with the flower in her hands.
Fortunately, Concubine Tian went to pay a visit to the Queen, and it was unknown how long Liu Zhu was delayed before she returned to the Yanx Palace.
Liu Zhu originally thought that she would stay in the Yanxi Palace until the young lady made a comeback.
Unexpectedly, Yu Ying'er was favored by the emperor and was named an official girl. She deliberately asked the emperor to take Liu Zhu to her side.
Concubine Tian originally disagreed. She just wanted to keep Liu Zhu so that she could find out Zhen Huan's secret. However, she didn't expect that Yu Ying'er would be so bold as to ask for her to come to her side.
She couldn't agree to such a shameful thing. She was just a palace maid, not even a master, and she dared to ask for a maid to serve her.
"You are so shameless! You don't even look in the mirror to see what kind of person you are. Are you worthy enough to serve the emperor?!"
"There has already been a maid in the palace serving the emperor, so why is your Excellency so angry?"
Lingrong gently comforted Concubine Tian, saying that Yu Ying'er had been favored in her previous life, but eventually she brought about her own destruction because of her own pampering and domineering behavior.
She has a very vicious tongue, but she doesn't have the scheming mind she should have. She can only be a pawn of others and do all kinds of bad things.
She is a wretched woman, and she is accustomed to offending people when she is in favor, so it is normal for her to snatch the maid of Concubine Tian.
But Concubine Tian is not a person who can tolerate others. Just look at the little tricks she used to deal with Zhen Huan and you will know that Yu Ying'er is in trouble.
"If she was like Fu Changzai, serving the emperor obediently, it would be fine, but she actually dared to ask for help from me. Does she think that my Fucha family has no one?"
"Not necessarily." Ling Rong thought for a moment. Yu Ying'er had just gained favor yesterday, and now she had not been bought by others.
If he wants to keep Liu Zhu by his side, he should still be concerned about what happened in Yime Garden.
Therefore, Liu Zhu will probably suffer a lot if he goes there.
“I think she just wants to find an opportunity to teach Liu Zhu a lesson.
But her behavior was indeed too much and it was a loss of face for the young master."
Lady Tian nodded heavily. She could give up this person, but she couldn't lose face. "So I will never give Liu Zhu to her unless she comes to me on her knees and begs me."
She held the handkerchief in her hand, her face turned red with anger, and her eyebrows were tightly furrowed.
But the emperor has also agreed. If Concubine Tian refuses to let go, it will probably make the emperor angry.
"My Lord, what are your plans for the Emperor?"
“I don’t understand why the emperor was deceived by that vulgar person.
She can only sing a few lines of Kunqu opera. Are the opera troupes in the palace not good enough? Why do you want to keep such a lowly maid by your side?
When I thought about going with her to the Jingren Palace to pay respects to the Empress, I felt like my skin was damaged by the stink of that poor air. "
Lingrong really didn't expect that Concubine Tian could be so sharp-tongued.
Concubine Tian took out a box of scented powder and kept applying it on her face, as if Yu Ying'er was right there in the palace.
"Don't be angry, my lady. I have a solution." Ling Rong comforted Lady Tian. She covered her nose with a handkerchief to avoid the flying powder. "It's just that... I'm pregnant now and can't stand the smell of fragrance. Can you please stop applying powder for now?"
Concubine Tian held her breath, closed the powder box and threw it on the table, glaring at Ling Rong angrily.
"This was awarded by the Emperor. He Anming has also seen it. It can also be used by pregnant women.
But you are so cautious that you think I will come to Chengqian Palace openly to harm you."
Lingrong's thoughts were revealed and she gave two embarrassed dry laughs. She reached out and held Concubine Tian's hand, softening her voice to coax her.
"My dear, you know that this pregnancy of mine was really hard.
He Anming is your noble’s man, and you probably know the baby’s pregnancy better than I do.”
Lady Tian snorted, "Alright, alright, this is so corny. Tell me, what can we do?"
Seeing that Concubine Tian was no longer entangled and angry, Ling Rong was relieved at this time. She withdrew her hand and said, "Don't forget, Concubine Tian is the emperor's concubine.
She, Yu Ying'er, can go to the emperor and beg for mercy, and naturally the noble lady can do the same.
The noble lady can retreat to advance, which means that her status is higher than that of other women officials.
If I were to go to Liuzhu like this, I'm afraid people in the palace would talk about me behind my back, saying that I'm spoiled, which would hurt my feelings."
Concubine Tian understood immediately, her eyes lit up, "I will tell the emperor that I will explain to the empress when she comes to pay respects in a few days and give Liuzhu to the other women in the palace.
It not only saves Yu Guan's daughter's face, but also allows her to get what she wants."
Lingrong nodded. This Concubine Tian was not stupid and her mind worked very quickly.
"Your Excellency is intelligent, but I still want to say one more thing. Your Excellency would be best if you could let the Emperor stay in the Yanxi Palace.
This will let everyone in the harem know that no matter how favored Yu Ying'er is, she cannot compare to the noble lady.
The emperor agreed to let Liu Zhu serve her, but it was just the wishful thinking of a woman like Yuguan. "
Concubine Tian was very satisfied. She knew that it was the right decision to come to Lingrong. She was much smarter than Xia Dongchun and could always think of a solution.
If I become a concubine or even a noble concubine in the future, it would be nice to promote An Lingrong. Maybe I can even let her deal with the queen, so I don't have to do it myself.
Ling Rong had no idea what Concubine Tian was thinking at the moment. She looked at Concubine Tian, who was lost in thought as she thought about something, and moved closer out of curiosity.
A face that was sometimes smug, sometimes conflicted, sometimes proud, and sometimes very disdainful.
Just like the flowers in the imperial garden, the colors are so colorful.
"What are you doing! An Lingrong?" Concubine Tian was frightened by Lingrong's probing eyes. She waved her handkerchief at Lingrong's face and said, "Really? Take good care of your baby and do good things for me when the time comes."
Ah? This noble lady Tian was too straightforward. It seemed that she really regarded herself as her little follower.
Forget it, as long as she is happy, she won’t cause trouble for me again.
After listening to Lingrong's idea, Concubine Tian not only gained a good reputation in front of the emperor, but also successfully saved Yu Ying'er's face.
Yu Ying'er didn't dare say anything to Concubine Tian, so she could only vent her anger on Liu Zhu, the only person who served her.
Not only did he require Liuzhu to pick plum blossoms in the Yime Garden, but he also deliberately made her walk ten laps in the Imperial Garden before allowing her to return to Chuxiu Palace.
Liu Zhu had bullied Yu Ying'er before by taking advantage of Concubine Tian's face. Now that he was sent to Yu Ying'er's hands, he had to accept his fate no matter how much torture he had to endure.
The only good thing is that she has now entered the Chuxiu Palace and can meet Concubine Duan often.
It will be easier to plan to rescue the young lady from Baohua Palace.
She also tried every means to persuade Yu Ying'er to seek refuge with Concubine Duan. After all, one more helper is also one more help.
If necessary, Yu Ying'er can be the one who rushes to the front and takes all the risks.
However, Yu Ying'er obviously looked down on the sickly Concubine Duan, and would rather go to Yikun Palace to curry favor with Concubine Hua.
