Scarlet Fang of the Pearl

"Jin Suo, why do you think the Queen let us go to the Palace of Yanxi Palace? Or did she take the initiative to let us go and bring so many rewards..." Ziwei only discussed with Jin Suo for a long time last night, but the next day she was rejected by the Queen. I got confused by a command from .

"Miss, these things shouldn't... be poisonous, right?" Jin Suo frightenedly glanced at the things carried by the maids in the back, Ziwei was also taken aback by her words, "No... no way... ...There is nothing to eat here! Jin Suo, let's stop scaring ourselves, the queen won't be so stupid. Let's hurry up to see the concubine Ling. She was hit by a little swallow that day and gave birth prematurely. how's it going."

After entering the Palace of Yanxi Palace, Ziwei and Jinsuo couldn't help speeding up the pace of the deserted gates along the way.Dongxue, who was guarding the door, had a sad face, and only when she saw Ziwei and the others came did she feel a little happy, "Miss Ziwei, quickly take a look at our empress!"

"What's the matter? What's the matter?" Startled by Dongxue, Ziwei asked while walking inside while holding her hand.

"Your Majesty, she has lost a lot of weight recently. She just gave birth and is in confinement. This is terrible!"

"Weakened? Didn't your concubine give birth to a little elder brother?" Ziwei thought that this should be the time when the concubine Ling was proud of her spring breeze, and all they heard was good news. The little elder brother, mother and child are safe, and the emperor Ma's reward is also there, how can he lose weight?When Dong Xue heard the word 'Little Elder Brother', she suddenly felt a little embarrassed. She hesitated for a while, then pushed Ziwei and the others inside, "You'd better go in and see for yourself..."

Ziwei and Jinsuo entered the Palace of Yanxi Palace full of doubts. There was not a single maid waiting inside. Concubine Ling was resting on the soft couch with a pale face and frowning. She didn't even hear the footsteps of Ziwei and Jinsuo coming in. .It wasn't until Ziwei and Jinsuo greeted her that she opened her eyes suddenly, "Ziwei, Jinsuo, you are here..." She tried to smile, which made Ziwei and Jinsuo even more worried.

"Mother, what's wrong with you?" Ziwei knelt down in front of Concubine Ling worriedly, and touched Concubine Tanling's forehead with her hand, "Ah, it's so hot, you have a fever! Jin Suo, please go and get the imperial physician!" Jin Suo She nodded and was about to run out, but Concubine Ling stopped her, "No need, I'm fine. The Queen Mother and the Emperor have already given me a lot of rewards, if there is any more trouble, I will be called 'attractive' again I'm very happy that you came to see me, but didn't I hear that you went to Kunning Palace? Did the queen make things difficult for you? Why did you let you come to me?"

"Don't worry, the empress didn't make things difficult for us, and even asked us to bring a reward! She said that you are credited with giving birth to the little elder brother..." Ziwei's big words made Ling Fei's face even paler in an instant.

"What's wrong? Is it the little elder brother?" Ziwei was at a loss, not knowing what she said wrong.

"It's not... just, go and have a look, he's in the back room." Ling Fei's eyes were dim, Ziwei didn't know why this little elder brother who brought her hope would let her go like this, and walked away with Jin Suo in doubt into the back room.There was only one nanny in the room who was taking care of the little bed. Seeing Ziwei came in, she gave her a slight salute, but said nothing, probably because she was afraid of disturbing the child.Ziwei didn't mind these things either, she and Jinsuo stretched out her head to look at the small bed, and immediately took a step back in shock.

The baby inside has dark skin, and the proportions of the facial features are very uncoordinated. Even if Ziwei has never given birth, one can imagine how ugly the baby will be in the future.Moreover, the ratio of the size of the head to the body is also very wrong. The head is bigger than the shoulders and wider, but the torso underneath is very thin.

Ziwei thought of Huang Ama's handsome appearance and Lingfei's gentle and beautiful appearance. It was hard to believe that this would be their child!Now needless to say, she also knew why the Yanxi Palace was full of gloom and made the concubine sad and sad. It would be better not to have such a child.

Ziwei went out of the back room and sat next to Concubine Ling, "What did your majesty say?"

"Him? The emperor is busy with business and has no time to see the child..." Concubine Ling frowned deeply, very sad, "Besides, I used the Tianshan snow lotus that I used to nurse my body that day, the emperor may not be happy, I This poor child has no name yet." Ling Fei's words were filled with resentment.

Ziwei didn't understand how this matter would involve Brother Jiu again, Ling Fei gently told Ziwei what happened on the day of her delivery. Of course, it was a more 'touching' version after her revision.Ziwei was shocked immediately, "Your Majesty...how could your Majesty do this?!"

"How are you?!" The three of Ziwei raised their heads in shock, and saw Qianlong walking in from the outside with a blank face, and the one he was holding was the ninth elder brother Yongyan.It can be embarrassing to talk about someone being caught behind your back, especially if the person not only has a much higher status than you but also has control over your life and death.Concubine Ling was so surprised that she couldn't speak, and then she thought of what she just said, and she didn't know how long the emperor had been listening outside.Cursing in his heart why the slaves outside didn't report, he quickly got up and bowed to Qianlong with Ziwei with a pale face.

Qianlong was not in a hurry to get them up, he sat down with the little buns, let them hang out for a while, drank a sip of tea, and then let them get up.Sitting next to Qianlong, Solante had no intention of saluting Lingfei at all, and Qianlong didn't say anything.Concubine Ling naturally didn't dare to say anything, but judging from her glance at Sorante, it was impossible to say she didn't care.Ziwei has learned the rules in the past few days, so she naturally noticed that she opened her mouth and dared not speak.

"You have learned the rules. It's much better than when you were in Shufangzhai." Qianlong rolled his eyes at Ziwei, turning a blind eye to the way she was about to speak just now.

"Concubine Ling get up too, aren't you still in confinement?" If you really want to be considerate, you will make people kneel for a long time?What Qianlong said was false, but no one dared to have any opinions, and he had to thank the Lord for his kindness.

"The emperor is busy with government affairs, and my concubines dare not delay the emperor. Yesterday I heard that Ziwei is your daughter, and my concubines were still shocked. Ziwei and the emperor have been separated for many years. Why don't you take some time to continue the relationship between father and son? Ziwei is a bitter girl." Yes, but it's not too small. Did the emperor discuss with the queen to find a good husband's family for this girl? Here, the concubine, Lafayette and the empress have arranged very thoughtfully, the emperor can rest assured."

"Don't worry? Thoughtful? Hehe... I believe in this point. I am free to arrange Ziwei's affairs. This is not your business, you know?" Qianlong smiled and stared at Lingfei.Concubine Ling shivered, and smiled stiffly: "The concubine knows, Your Majesty."

Qianlong seemed very relieved, "It's good to know, I don't like to repeat what I said."

"Then the concubine will let someone inform the empress that..."

"Where I'm going is none of your business." Qianlong's cold words made Concubine Ling froze with a smile, "I'm here to see Shiliu today, and it happens that Yongyan also wants to see his new brother. Nanny What? Let her take the baby out."

"Your Majesty, that's really unfortunate. Sixteen is not feeling well today..."

"Uncomfortable? Then let's go in and have a look, Huang Ama." Sorante stood up, "It's better to invite an imperial doctor, the sixteenth brother is sick, and the concubine seems to be in a bad mood. Show it to the imperial physician." Sorante seemed to be very interested in his new brother, Lingfei looked at him with a look of resentment like a curse, Qianlong looked at Lingfei, his eyes flashed a few stern.

Dong Xue looked at Concubine Ling hesitantly, wondering if he should listen to Brother Jiu's words or not.

"What are you still doing in a daze, didn't you hear Brother Jiu's words? How can you serve the master like this?!" With a few eyes, Dongxue shivered for a while and didn't dare to look at Concubine Ling again, and agreed The sound ran out quickly.

"Sixteen is in the back room, right? Since Concubine Ling said he was sick, I'll go and see for myself." Qianlong stood up and walked over to Concubine Ling and gave her a faint glance, which made her tremble with fear.He knows that the child is in the back room?That... isn't it that they arrived just after Ziwei arrived? !

When Concubine Ling raised her head again, Qianlong had already brought Solante into the inner room, and Ziwei was looking at her worriedly, obviously they all knew that the child inside would not be liked by Qianlong.Otherwise, the concubine Ling would not have made it clear that she wanted to push Qianlong out, or even used Ziwei as an excuse to push Qianlong to Kunning Palace.

Qianlong went in, and they had no choice but to follow.When they got inside, they saw Qianlong and Solante standing beside the small bed, and the nanny knelt in the corner with a mournful face, it seemed that Qianlong didn't wake her up.

"Emperor... Your Majesty..." Concubine Ling was a little scared. Qianlong stood with his back to them. She didn't dare to guess what Qianlong was thinking at the moment, but she could be sure that it would not be so good.

"This thing...is my child?" Qianlong turned his head to Lingfei with a sullen face.His words made Concubine Ling kneel down with a thud, "Dongxi", the emperor called the child "Dongxi", which definitely did not mean liking.As for Qianlong's question, she was even more afraid to answer.

"Hmph!" No longer looking at the extremely ugly baby, Qianlong turned around and left while leading Solante.

When Solante passed by Concubine Ling, Concubine Ling swore that the weird illegitimate child gave him an even weirder smile, with a faint red light in his eyes.As if to say: 'You can't win! 'Let the concubine Ling feel cold all over. After Qianlong and the others left, she couldn't even stand up and collapsed on the ground, muttering incessantly, "Devil... monsters!" Looking at the little bed, her eyes flashed with fear And hatred, "My child...you ruined me!"

Lingfei's bewildered look startled both Ziwei and Jinsuo, but soon, it returned to normal for Lingfei, only more sad and sad.Coming out of Yanxi Palace, Ziwei looked back at this magnificent palace, and suddenly felt a chill, which made her leave a few steps faster.
