Qinse is in the imperial court, forgetting both favor and disgrace

When the emperor and the queen mother were having dinner, Changle was waiting on her side. Her face was calm and stern, but her heart was always empty.

During the banquet, the queen mother kept persuading the emperor that the peace and safety of the harem depended on the emperor's rain and dew being treated equally. Only in this way can the emperor's heirs prosper and the dragon's veins flourish.

Changle glanced at the emperor, the young and handsome emperor was smiling, but he didn't say a word. When the empress dowager stopped to catch her breath, she suddenly asked a few words. They were all concerned about the health of the empress dowager and the daily life of chanting .

The emperor was not only born very well, but there was a kind of self-prestige in his speech and demeanor. When Changle was in Jinghua Palace, he had only seen the emperor from a distance. Now that he saw him up close, he was almost out of breath. But……

She just felt terrible.

That day, it was the emperor who held his eldest brother in his arms and walked towards the bedroom as if no one else was around. The person who even the eldest brother could not do anything to, asked her to serve him. Chang Le did not dare to say no to the Queen Mother. As Hui Hai pointed out, if she Resist the decree, what should I do, big brother?

The concubines and palace people who live by the emperor's favor and offend the emperor will be doomed.Changle has not been in Tai'an Palace for a long time, but he has seen many concubines who only have to sleep for one time, but still have immortal desires and dreams.If you can't, you will spend your whole life in vain, with no children, no relatives, no reason, and you will die of old age, sickness and loneliness in this deep palace.

A concubine with a humble status, met the empress who is now in charge of the Sixth Palace, who is mean and even has a hard time living. She had to do some female celebrity work, and secretly handed it over to the old servant who had the right to go out of the palace, and entrusted her to sell it carefully everywhere, so as to get some money. money for expenses and bribes from the inner government.

Could it be that she and her eldest brother are going to become such involuntary people?What about the people in Chengxian Palace who know each other cautiously and support each other?Thinking of how lucky he was to be so close to that person in the future, Chang Le wanted to cry.

When she was in a state of confusion, she suddenly felt her body being gently pushed, she suddenly came back to her senses, seeing the empress dowager and the emperor staring at her with surprise in their eyes, her heart flustered, and the strength of her hand suddenly froze. The wine pot she was carrying was poured over immediately, and the jade liquid and fine wine flowed out, sprinkled on the skirt, she was even more panicked, her hands were shaking so much that she couldn't bear the weight of the jade pot, the wine pot fell to the ground immediately, and the spout broke with a sound.

There was a moment of silence in the arena, the maids did not dare to move a little, Chang Le's face was as white as paper, and she knelt in a daze, as if she had lost her mind due to shock.

The emperor was stunned and said in a deep voice: "What are you doing in a daze? Why don't you clean it up quickly?"

After saying that, he got up, stepped forward to pull Chang Le up, felt the girl's delicate body trembling like chaff, looked down and saw that her face was bloodless, and couldn't help frowning.

The queen mother also spoke at this time: "Changle, you are in such a mess that you don't look good, go down quickly."

Chang Le responded with a weak "Yes", bowed to the Queen Mother and the Emperor each, before retreating.

She had just changed into her dress, but she was still in a state of shock. The sister next to her was comforting her to survive the catastrophe. Another maid came in to report that the Emperor Dao was resting in the Linglong Hall in Tai'an Palace, and she was ordered to serve her there.

Chang Le couldn't help gasping when she heard the decree, and her whole body was almost paralyzed. She held the hand of the palace lady who passed the decree helplessly, with tears in her eyes, and said in a trembling voice: "What should I do? What if, what if..."

The maids also have the luck of the goat cart, and hope that one day they can choose someone to serve the king, but there are no shortage of people like Changle who have endured deep palace years and only want to be safe, and leave the palace to marry when they are older. At this time, although I don't know why Changle is so frightened, but he also said kindly and considerately: "Don't be afraid, Your Majesty is just resting on the couch and reading. There must always be taboo."

"But Ming is the Empress Dowager..." Chang Le blurted out, shut up sadly in the middle of the sentence, silently followed the maid, and went to Linglong Hall to serve her.

Sure enough, the emperor leaned on the soft couch, covered the case with his hands, and read the book intently. Chang Le entered silently, stood quietly, and waited for half a cup of tea. She gradually calmed down her frantic heartbeat and breathed evenly. The emperor said lightly: "I have never punished you, why are you so afraid?"

Chang Le quickly knelt down to plead guilty, the emperor chuckled: "There is no need to be so restrained. Are you having a bad time in Tai'an Palace? Someone bullied you and made you wronged?"

His tone was soft and casual, Chang Le was surprised, but she still didn't dare to raise her head, until the emperor bluntly asked her to get up, then she silently stood aside, suspicious and shrinking.

The emperor laughed again, not without teasing: "Jing Du pretends to be brave, but my sister is as timid as a mouse? Could it be that you are really a mouse in the Chinese zodiac, huh? Your brother should be Xiao Hu, right?"

When Changle heard the emperor mentioning his elder brother, he felt even more nervous, fearing that his cowardice would bring Zhao Rang's prestige, so he raised his head and replied seriously and loudly: "Your Majesty, the slave girl is a rabbit, not a rat. .”

"Rabbit," the emperor couldn't help laughing loudly, "rabbits are timid, so there's nothing wrong with that. That's fine, it's better for the female doll not to act like a child."

Seeing that the emperor is approachable and making fun with his words, which is far from the impression of Jinghua Palace that day, Changle felt relieved when he was puzzled, and smiled until the emperor restrained his face, sat up and asked: "Changle, you see me like a rabbit sees a tiger, there must be a reason ? If you are not safe around the queen mother, I will send you back to your elder brother. You don’t need to be afraid of me. If you have something to say, can I still argue with you?”

These words made Chang Le both surprised and happy, she was looking forward to returning to Chengxian Palace to reunite with her elder brother Gao Zheng, but she dared not speak out, but her cheeks finally had a little rosy color, but thinking of Hui Hai's words, she felt in her heart With another twitch, she knelt down to the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager is kind and virtuous, and the slaves have never been wronged."

Just as she lowered her head and thought hard about how to speak, she suddenly felt her jaw clenched, and it was the emperor who stretched out his hand to lift her head up. Chang Le's mind went blank for a moment, she let out a scream, and backed away in panic, crawling away on both hands and feet and dodging to the door, tears streaming down her face .

Although the emperor frowned, he didn't step forward, and said to Changle a few feet apart: "Since you are Jingdu's younger sister, how can I treat you? What did the queen mother tell you?"

Just as Chang Le was shocked, she calmed down and felt ashamed, knelt down again, listened to the emperor's frank questioning, endured the shame and muttered: "The old lady ordered the slaves to serve...to serve your majesty..."

Although the Empress Dowager did not tell her clearly, she treated her differently, and with Hui Hai's slaps on the side, no matter how stupid Chang Le was, she could understand it, but this was her nightmare of restless sleep and food. Under the torture, Changle almost felt sick.

The emperor understood Chang Le's difficulty in pronouncing the words, he laughed and said, "The Empress Dowager wants you to sleep in?"

After finishing speaking, he seemed consciously funny, and started laughing, Chang Le was speechless, his face turned blue and white, and the emperor couldn't help laughing after a long while and said: "It turns out that you are so afraid of me because of this, you can rest assured, I will still I want to save my life in front of your brother."

Chang Le was stunned again, the emperor's tone was obviously different from that of the elder brother when he talked about the relationship between the two, seeing the emperor was smiling, she emboldened her, and asked for the elder brother: "Your Majesty, did you... stay for a while, and then let the elder brother Release the palace and help him reunite with his wife and children?"

The emperor smiled when he heard the words, looked at Chang Le, and asked strangely: "Who did you hear this from? Your brother?"

Chang Le observed his words, quickly shook his head and hesitated: "No, big brother never mentioned it."

"Changle," the emperor smiled and pointed to the slumped beard bed, made her sit down, and said softly, "Your brother is named my concubine, but in fact he is congenial, and the purpose of admitting him into the palace is to deceive others, just tell me , Did your brother tell you clearly?"

"I didn't say it clearly," Changle thought over and over again, seeing that the emperor was always kind, and it was not half difficult for her, she pondered over and over again, Mo Ruo explained the matter clearly, and begged the emperor for mercy, she peeked at the emperor's expression, and said, " It’s just that the eldest brother often misses his wife and children, and sometimes talks about interesting things about children with his servants, but every time he goes to the end, he always shows a sad face. The servants also saw the eldest brother playing with a pearl flower peony, which presumably belonged to his beloved object……"

As soon as she paused, the emperor smiled lightly and urged: "Go on."

Chang Le thought about it carefully, and didn't notice anything unusual about the emperor, so he continued: "Your servant... I once asked about this matter with my elder brother, and my elder brother vaguely mentioned it, but then one day I suddenly mentioned it to my servant, and I will definitely not stay. The servant is alone in the palace... After the servant asked carefully, the eldest brother refused to say more, only said that His Majesty is holy and benevolent, and the grace of heaven is mighty, and he will properly arrange the brothers and sisters of the servant..."

"What else? Is your elder brother going to take you back to Nanyue?" The emperor's tone was still gentle and amiable, Chang Le already shook his head, denying: "I never mentioned this, even if elder brother wants to go back, slaves are unwilling ! If it wasn't for those South Vietnamese barbarians..."

The emperor pondered for a while, and said with a smile: "Did your brother ever tell you when I will let you brothers and sisters go?"

"Your Majesty?" The question was raised inexplicably, and Chang Le's face showed a look of surprise. The emperor smiled when he saw this: "Arranging you in Tai'an Palace is to take the opportunity to send you out. Your brother didn't mention it?"

"Yes, elder brother wanted me to leave the palace wholeheartedly, and he did say that His Majesty is considerate." Chang Le blushed, mustering up the courage of his life, "Your Majesty, if you let the brothers and sisters of slaves and maidservants out of the palace, can you...can you show mercy? Another... another... drive one person away..."

She used the word "expelling", and the emperor chuckled immediately when he heard that: "The servant you admire? Who is it?"

Hearing Chang Le's name like a gnat, the emperor's expression froze, and he sighed: "Chang Le, no matter how capable I am, I can't compete with the King of Hades. The little servant you miss is dead."

Seeing Chang Le's whole body froze, the blood on his face faded, his eyes stared at him in disbelief, he nodded slightly, and affirmed with pity: "It's because of your brother. This palace is indeed a place of right and wrong, you It’s better not to stay here for too long.”

Chang Le was dumbfounded, and repeated unconsciously: "My brother killed me..."

The emperor smiled lightly: "The little yellow gate is the eyeliner sent by others to your brothers and sisters. There is nothing you can do about it if you die. Don't blame your brother."

After all, the emperor sent someone in to help down Chang Le, who was already stunned. He returned to his slump, sat silently for a moment, and suddenly got up. At this time, there was no need to hide. City, the hands in the sleeves couldn't help shaking slightly.

After Zhao Ranggui descended into the palace, it is absolutely impossible to keep any female ornaments on his body, and the pearl flowers that Changle saw would only come from the palace.

Who gave it to him?Or who used what channel to transfer it to him from outside the palace?
