Empress' Marshal's Concubine

"Ma'am, the one who left first just now was Xiong Chongyuan, the eldest daughter of Huaihua General Xiong Rui, the one wearing the blue palace attire was Taiwei Lord Yu Han's first daughter, Yu Zhaoyi, and the one who followed was Song Hongyu, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry. Song Chongrong, the eldest daughter of the first line." Nanny An introduced Ye Qingruo in a low voice while supporting Ye Qingruo to walk forward.

"Xiong Chongyuan has the highest status?" Ye Qingruo carefully watched the road under her feet.

"No. Xiong Chongyuan's status is the lowest. Yu Zhaoyi's status is the highest among the three of them, and then Song Chongrong. Yu Zhaoyi is the empress of Liantai Pavilion. So the position is even more important than that of the concubine who is not the master. Ladies and gentlemen, the status is higher." An Nanny replied in a low voice, and introduced the importance of empress dowagers along the way.

My master has always lived alone in the palace, so I don't know that the status of the main empress is higher.

"The lowest status, and still so flamboyant? The rules in this harem are really strange!" Ye Qingruo smiled coldly, doing so in front of her own face. How many dirty things have been done!

"Xiong Chongyuan used to have a very good relationship with your empress." Mother An explained quickly when she heard that her master was in a bad mood.

"It's good enough to hurt me behind the scenes, so I still protect her?" Ye Qingruo sneered.

"Well, this old slave doesn't know..." Mother An didn't dare to say anything more.

It could be heard that Ye Qingruo didn't like that Xiong Shuixuan, so she was a bit defensive.

"The person in front of the empress is the concubine de concubine, An Ran, the direct princess of the empress of Hami, who rarely comes out of her Fenglu Pavilion on weekdays. Your Majesty also respects her very much." Nanny An said in a low voice. In the distance is a woman with a charming and delicate figure who is wearing a water-blue floor-length dress and wide-sleeved green gauze walking slowly.

"Shall I go to say hello?" Ye Qingruo said casually.

"No need. The empress only entered the palace later, and her status is no lower than the three concubines who entered the palace before." Nanny An's voice was a little lower.

"The eunuchs and maids in the palace, do I have the right to change their names?" Ye Qingruo changed the subject.

"Your Majesty has this right. We are all rewarded by Your Majesty. Your Majesty is allowed to kill the servants." Mother An smiled.

Ye Qingruo smiled lightly.

When Ye Qingruo walked into the main hall of the Green Bamboo Garden, the room was full of concubines, she followed Concubine De and was the last one to arrive.

Fortunately, Concubine Shu didn't make too much trouble, so she gave her a seat.

As soon as he sat down, the concubines in the room came to greet Concubine De and himself one by one according to their status.

Ye Qingruo watched with a sleepy expression.

She finally understood why it was so early in the morning, and Concubine Shu made these people come to her palace to pay their respects.

All the concubines have arrived, so I greet and salute the two concubines who are late, and it will take a while.

Among the concubines paying their respects at the last row, Ye Qingruo saw Xiong Shuixuan.

Ye Qingruo was still wearing a plain white dress. Although it was made of Tiangong Brocade, which only paid tribute to ten pieces every year, white was not allowed in this harem. Everyone was wearing brightly colored dresses in the Green Bamboo Garden, which was particularly abrupt.

The other concubines saluted Ye Qingruo and said nothing.

It's just that when Xiong Shuixuan came here, Xiong Shuixuan felt that his chance to crush Ye Qingruo had come.

Just as she stepped forward to salute, she made a figure that wanted Wanfu, but she stood up straight again, with a surprised look on her face, "Ah! Sister, you look so pretty in white, you really want to be pretty, and you are filial!"

With Xiong Shuixuan's words, the concubines who returned to their seats after saluting, picked up tea and wanted to eat, or picked up tea bowls to drink, almost threw away the things in their hands.

What a crime!

Wearing filial piety in the palace is undoubtedly cursing His Majesty to death!

Curse the king, but it will harm the nine clans!

Even Nanny An, who was standing behind Ye Qingruo, almost lost her footing when she heard Xiong Shuixuan's words.

Just about to open her mouth to say something for her master, Ye Qingruo said, "Since it looks good, how about I give it to you? You also wear what you call filial piety, so everyone can see it?"

As soon as Ye Qingruo's words came out of her mouth, even Concubine Shu, who was sitting in the main seat and wanted to watch the play, put down the hot tea in her hand, sat upright, and looked down.

Concubine Shu is very curious to know how this Concubine Ning can save herself.

"My sister was joking, how dare my younger sister wear filial piety in this palace!" Xiong Shuixuan is not a fool, seeing that Ye Qingruo didn't follow her own words, and she didn't help her whatever she said like before. , I immediately wanted to pick myself out.It's a pity that it's too late.

Ye Qing would let her go so easily.

"Sister of your mouth, don't you know that the status in the harem is clear?" Ye Qingruo picked up the tea bowl on her table and showed the tea leaves floating in the tea bowl.

"When you see me being rude, without asking how I am, you come forward and comment on me, is this what a concubine should do?" Ye Qingruo's voice was neither loud nor soft, clear and crisp.

Hearing that Xiong Shuixuan was in a cold sweat, he and Ye Qingruo have always been like this, today he was in a hurry since he forgot that she had lost her memory...

Just now because I saw an opportunity to get her punished, I was in a hurry, since I forgot.

"Concubine Shu, if Qing Ruo was wronged, His Majesty personally rewarded this dress, and the plum blossoms on it were drawn by His Majesty. When he got up in the morning, His Majesty asked Eunuch Wang Xi to bring it to him, saying that he wanted to see Qing Ruo wear it. Qing Ruo thinks about His Majesty's favor, how can he enjoy it alone, so he wears it for this reason, so that all the sisters can share with Qing Ruo His Majesty's caring." Ye Qingruo said, since she got up and left her seat, she knelt on the Landed on the ground, and said to Concubine Shu who was in the main seat, she was really wronged, her little face was full of innocence.

No one expected that Ye Qingruo would suddenly make such a 180-degree change.

Just now, she was preaching to Xiong Shuixuan with a cold and stern expression, but when she turned around, she was already a little girl who had suffered a lot, hoping to be protected by adults.

"Hurry up and help Concubine Ning get up." Concubine Shu didn't expect that Ye Qing would be so hot that she would come out suddenly.He quickly asked the maid beside her to help Ye Qingruo.

You must know that the four concubines in this room are all of the same status, the difference is that Concubine Shu has real power.

But no matter how powerful they are, and they are in the same position, they cannot accept the other party's kneeling.

"Sister Concubine Shu, since Qing Ruo entered the palace, although she doesn't understand the world, she has never had the intention of harming anyone. Qing Ruo doesn't leave the gate every day, just to protect herself. But even so, there are People are dissatisfied. He has murderous intentions towards Qing Ruo. Qing Ruo's meals appear again and again with highly poisonous and chronic poisons. Even His Majesty feels sorry for Qing Ruo who was sent to the palace at a young age, and bestowed a gift on her. The kitchen. In Qingruo’s meals and refreshments, there will still be chronic poisons. Qingruo doesn’t know who it is, who is so vicious, hates Qingruo so much, and wants Qingruo’s life again and again. Qingruo cooked for His Majesty yesterday After a dinner, Qingruo did everything from picking vegetables to washing vegetables and cooking them all by himself. However, after the cooking was done, Mr. Wang Xi used a silver needle to test for poison. Since every dish is poisonous, Your Majesty is merciful. Generous, he never blamed his concubine, nor made it public. But there are not many people serving in Qingruo Palace, who can poison Qingruo's small kitchen after His Majesty arrives? Qingruo is stupid, I also ask Sister Concubine Shu to make the decision for Qingruo, find out the real culprit, and restore Qingruo's innocence..." Ye Qingruo didn't get up, but still knelt on the ground, sobbing, as if she would cry at any moment.

"Your Majesty stayed in Qing Ruo Palace last night. He told Qing Ruo that the poisoner was so vicious. It must be that Qing Ruo offended people without knowing it. But since Qing Ruo woke up, she has no memory of her past. I don't know anything about the past, and I never treated the palace servants of Zang Yuxuan harshly. I really don't know what I have done unintentionally that people hate so much, and I have to get rid of myself to make it faster!" Ye Qingruo said The words are sound, and Wu Zetian is also mentioned.

Ye Qingruo had a tragic face, but there was a sneer in her heart.

Since you want to harm me so much, don't blame me for being cruel.

You found it yourself.

Originally, I still wanted to keep you, and it would slowly flare up in the future, but I didn't expect you to be so anxious.

Then I can't keep you.

Put poison in my food, and talk about coloring my clothes today, Xiong Shuixuan, do you really think that you are the only one with a brain in this world?

You are smart and I am not stupid!

The national teacher said that if Ye Qing had a good friend before, it would be Xiong Shuixuan.

Xiong Shuixuan freely enters and exits the Hidden Yuxuan, just like her own palace, ordering the eunuchs in the Hidden Yuxuan, she is more like a master than Ye Qingruo, a serious master!

When Ye Qingruo was cooking last night, she noticed that her court lady Caixia had secretly changed the water scoop. Ye Qingruo wondered why there were two water scoops in the kitchen cooking water tank.

Even if there were two water ladles, it wouldn't be so sneaky to hide them?

Unless there is something wrong with the water scoop, no one can be seen...

So Ye Qingruo told Eunuch Wang Xi about it.

"Eunuch Wang Xi, Qing Ruo is new here and doesn't understand many things, so I want to ask Eunuch, are there two ladles in the cooking water tank in the small kitchen?" Ye Qingruo seemed to be asking for advice humbly.

"There is a ladle in the cooking water tank, and a water ladle in the cooking water tank. Are the water ladles in the two water tanks put together?" Eunuch Wang Xi frowned when he heard Ye Qing ask this. .He is not a fool, although his answer was very straightforward, but he still drew a circle in his heart.

Knowing that someone poisoned Concubine Ning's meals in Hidden Yuxuan from time to time, but the source of it has never been found out?

Could it be that the source is the water in the small kitchen?

Wang Xi did not disturb Ye Qingruo, and followed Ye Qingruo into the small kitchen, and saw a water ladle in the cooking water tank placed on the lid of the water tank, and a water ladle in the cooking water tank was also stable. put it there!

Then Concubine Ning just said that she saw two water ladles in a jar?

What about the ladle?

Is Concubine Ning wrong?

Impossible, if Concubine Ning was wrong, Concubine Ning would not ask herself.

Someone took advantage of the time when Concubine Ning came to ask her, and took away the water scoop!

Wang Xi looked at the palace servants and maids in Hidden Yuxuan, there were not many of them, just seven of them, three eunuchs, three maids, and one nanny in charge. Nanny An would never do such a thing Yes, then it's the maids and eunuchs below, but the three little eunuchs were all single-handedly picked up by themselves, so it shouldn't be a problem.

There were only those three maids, because Concubine Ning had repeatedly committed suicide before, and then Her Majesty committed several crimes. Most of the maids and eunuchs who were serving were pulled out and beheaded.

There are not many maids in the palace who can serve the master. I thought they were sent here anyway, and they would be dragged out and beheaded within a few days, so the maids did not choose carefully, but just randomly assigned a few stations. In the front, a good-looking court lady.

The three maids here used to be in the Imperial Dining Room, Yu Zhenfang, and Jinxiufang. They are not places that are easy to buy for each palace. They will be on duty every three months. No one knows except the steward. who.
