There is a big problem with my harem [Qing Chuan]

Yue Huier stuck out her tongue secretly, probably thinking it was the same as what her mother said - how did she meet a dancing girl?

She forgot about the dancers on the stage, and talked happily with Daiyu.

Speaking of the gathering together to recite poems, paint paintings, and talk about books a few days ago, Daiyu's eyes seemed to be shining brightly, and she repeatedly asked if she could take her with her.

The two little girls chattered like they were very chatty. The two mothers sitting on the side exchanged glances. One was flattering and the other responded softly. After a while, they also chatted. Gradually, the table changed. It was very lively!

Many of the female relatives sitting at the other table had heard rumors of the "evil girl" in Lin Shilang's family at other banquets. Looking at Lin Daiyu, who was in high spirits and peaceful, they couldn't help being a little curious, and whispered to each other.

The concubine Xian sat on the top, condescendingly watching this scene silently—the emperor said that day that he would ask Concubine Zhao to appease Jia Min's mother and daughter, but until the end of the banquet, Concubine Zhao did not intend to move at all.

Maybe Concubine Zhao knew about the emperor's bad idea, so she was unwilling to come out and be such a good person!Concubine Xian couldn't bear the jealousy in her heart any longer, she muttered sourly in her heart.

The hourglass in the temple shows that it is almost Xu time.

At about three o'clock in Xu time, the palace banquet should be over, and the wives need to leave the palace and go home.

With only three quarters of an hour left, Concubine Xian's heart relaxed, and she raised her glass frequently to drink with Concubine Qi.Concubine Qi couldn't have noticed Concubine Xian's fidgeting just now, she frowned slightly, seemed a little suspicious, but finally accepted it with a smile.

There was a sound outside the hall, and everyone couldn't help but looked up at the door curiously, only to see Liang Jiugong walking in with four young eunuchs: "The servant knocked on the empress dowager, the empress dowager Jin'an! Greetings to the concubine Zhaogui and the concubine Tong !"

"Liang Jiugong, why are you here?" The Empress Dowager asked with a smile.

"Reporting to the Empress Dowager, the Emperor heard that there will be an autumn appreciation party in the backyard today, so he specially ordered the servants to bring drinks to the empress, ladies and ladies." Liang Jiugong waved his hand, and more than a dozen young maids came in behind the four eunuchs. One holds a small wine jar in one hand, and the other jar is placed on a table.

The table for the Empress Dowager was naturally served by Liang Jiugong himself.Then he bowed his head and said submissively: "Second Elder Brother, Third Elder Brother, and Fourth Elder Brother are also clamoring to come. The Emperor has no choice but to ask the Empress Dowager to arrange it."

"But we all took the advantage of the Empress Dowager!"

As soon as Liang Jiugong left, Concubine Zhao talked cheerfully.The Empress Dowager gave her an angry look, and then told Su Mala: "Take the girls to the outer garden to enjoy the autumn leaves!"

Su Mala looked out at the already almost dark sky——wish the autumn or give the girls to the mosquitoes?

The Empress Dowager also felt confused and squinted with a smile: "The apse, go sit in the apse for a while!"

Many little girls got up with smiles and followed the maids and nuns into the apse—there were also thirteen or fourteen-year-old girls who had just started their love affairs and stood curiously at the door of the apse, looking inside, just wanting to see whether Kangxi was What kind of appearance, and those who are similar in age to Daiyu are surrounded together.

It's just that during the chat, a girl mentioned that the dancer just now seemed familiar, and four or five girls including Yue Huier couldn't help but exclaimed—they looked at each other, and the atmosphere gradually became stagnant after a long time.

"What's wrong?" Daiyu was a little curious.

"Oh, this has nothing to do with Daiyu's sister (sister)—" The little girls panicked, and Daiyu's curiosity was intensified by the appearance of not daring to say more.

Daiyu's eyes were even more suspicious.

Seeing that she couldn't hide it from her, Yue Hui'er took Daiyu's hand and walked aside. She organized her words and hesitated to speak.

"What's the matter? If it weren't for some people who have no reputation for wandering outside alone and being abducted by kidnappers, how could Yugu's family be implicated, Yugu changed from a daughter to a dancing girl!"

The voice from the crowd was sharp and piercing. As soon as the voice came out, all the little girls in the apse shut their mouths. Yue Huier looked at Lin Daiyu with a puzzled expression and said apologetically, "That dancing girl is Yugu, she is the daughter of the former governor of Shuntian Prefecture, and she was familiar with many people here when she was a child..."

A wave of anger burst out of Lin Daiyu's eyes: "Is this my fault?"

……

Front hall.

Kangxi reluctantly let the three elder brothers sway around behind him, then hurriedly urged the younger ones to go back to bed.

"Look at what you have become. A good emperor, you have to raise yourself!" The empress dowager shook her head, as if she was too lazy to pay attention to Kangxi, and asked Su Mala to send the emperor away quickly.

"Grandson, take them back now!" Even Kangxi was in a state of desperation today.Because Concubine Hui was also coming to the palace banquet, Kangxi took Baoqing back to the Qianqing Palace with a quick thought. Chenghu still showed his elder brother's genealogy and was quite friendly to Baoqing, but Baocheng met Baoqing. Qing just jumps up and down and has no peace for a moment!

It was not easy to persuade the three little guys out by letting them watch the palace banquet. Seeing that the banquet below was mostly empty, Kangxi also knew that he came at the wrong time, so he smiled embarrassingly, touched his nose, and hurriedly Busy turned around and left!

As soon as the emperor left, the empress dowager immediately planned to have a banquet when she saw the lack of interest of the concubines.She glanced sideways at Concubine Zhao, and Concubine Zhao immediately stood up with a knowing smile and entered the inner hall.

Walking into the inner hall, I felt that the atmosphere in the hall was extremely stagnant, Concubine Zhao raised her eyebrows in surprise and stopped.

"What's going on here?"

The ladies in twos and threes stood beside them and whispered, their eyes fell on the five girls who were extremely eye-catching in the middle.

Seeing the arrival of Concubine Zhao Gui, an aunt in charge knelt down to pay her respects: "My maidservant pays her respects to Concubine Zhao Gui."

The ladies in the hall suddenly noticed the appearance of Concubine Zhao, and they all looked pale, especially the few people standing in the middle. Lin Daiyu pulled the stupid Yue Huier and hurriedly saluted: "I have seen Concubine Zhao, your empress is Jin'an!"

As soon as the two finished speaking, the rest of the ladies hurriedly knelt down to salute.

"What's the matter?" Zhao Guifei asked again.

Thin beads of sweat emerged from the forehead of the aunt in charge, she dared not look at the few people in the middle and said in a low voice: "Responding to the words of the imperial concubine Zhao, the young ladies started arguing just now."

"Who is making the noise?"

Lin Daiyu's scalp tingled, she keenly noticed that Yue Huier's palms were covered with sweat, she couldn't help shivering, she gritted her teeth and stood up: "This is all my servant's fault."

Concubine Zhao frowned, she was surprised that it was Lin Daiyu who came out - the emperor even told her to find a reason to reward her, but how can she reward her if she made a mistake.

Her uncertain expression caused the other ladies present to panic. They all lowered their heads and stared at the insteps of their feet. Some even secretly turned their eyes red for fear of causing trouble to their upper body.

"Zhao, Concubine Zhao!" Dai Jiaxiuwen, who was standing not far away, was cruel, and took two steps forward, ignoring the exclamation of the people behind her, "It's not Sister Lin's fault!"

"... Oh?" ​​Concubine Zhao glanced at Dai Jiaxiuwen, who was standing in front of others with sweaty nose and panicked face, "It's not just one person who can fight, so who else?"

The eyes of the girls in the crowd gradually fell on the three people standing not far from Lin Daiyu.The leading girl's complexion turned pale, and while suppressing the uneasiness in her heart, she walked out neatly and knelt down to kowtow.

"Why are you arguing?"

Concubine Zhao's eyes fell on Lin Daiyu, and Lin Daiyu pursed her lips to avoid Concubine Zhao's gaze.The corner of Concubine Zhao's mouth drooped, and her eyes moved to Yue Hui'er next to her.

"The courtier and the others think that a dancer who just performed on the stage is very familiar." Yue Huier dared to speak, she secretly glanced at the expression of Concubine Zhao, and continued to say when she saw that there was nothing unusual about her, "When we were chatting, Just, I recognized who belonged to it, and because Sister Lin was here, everyone was reluctant to say. Then Huang Qingyun came out and said that it was because Sister Lin...running around caused accidents to Yugu's family!"

Yue Huier hesitated and skipped a lot of words, making Concubine Zhao frowned, and her questioning eyes fell on the aunt in charge who had been in the back hall before.

"Hui Zhao Guifei, what Miss Yue said is true." The aunt in charge knelt on the ground and whispered back.After saying this sentence, her lips twitched as if she still wanted to say something, but she didn't dare to say anything when she looked at the people around her.

Concubine Zhao pressed her temples hard, looked at the terrified little girls around: "Take out the irrelevant ones first!"

Only Lin Daiyu, Yue Huier, Dai Jiaxiuwen, Huang Qingyun and two other girls remained in the hall.

"Let's talk!" Concubine Zhao stared at the aunt in charge, "Why are they arguing?"

"Returning to the words of the imperial concubine Zhao, many girls in the palace recognized the dancing girl on the stage. They said that the dancing girl was the daughter of Guo Yanzuo, the former governor of Shuntian Prefecture, who was arrested for the kidnapping case two years ago. It was Miss Lin who was kidnapped."

The aunt in charge lowered her head and whispered what she heard in a low voice, "Afterwards, Ms. Huang said that she was abducted because Ms. Lin went out alone without a tutor, and said that Ms. Lin and her cousin were ambiguous. I don't know...after that..."

Concubine Zhao's complexion sank - the dismissal from office and the ransacking of the house naturally violated the law, and if it was said by the little girl, it would be someone else's murder!

"Whose family do you belong to?" She looked sharply at the girl named Huang Qingyun and reprimanded sharply.

"Minister, my daughter Huang Qingyun, my father, my father is the Minister of Rites..." Huang Qingyun's face was pale, and she was extremely frightened for a moment, and she whispered back trembling.

"The daughter of the Minister of Rites?" Concubine Zhao sneered.

Outside, with the sound of scolding from inside, none of the girls who came out from behind had his own daughter, and looked at the other girls who came out from the apse, trembling like quails hiding beside their mother.Only the six wives who were left behind also turned pale with fright, and their hearts fell to the bottom of the valley, like ants on a hot pot anxious.

The other foreign wives resigned one after another, leaving only six of them. You look at me, I look at you, full of bewilderment.

The Empress Dowager learned what had happened from the mother's mouth, her face was serious, and she said coldly: "Who is Huang Qingyun's mother?"

A middle-aged woman wearing a stone blue flag suddenly knelt down on the ground and said in a trembling voice: "My wife is here!"

"Look at the good daughter you have raised! My father, who is the Minister of Rites, gave birth to such a shameless thing!"

Mrs. Huang was completely shocked, her eyes widened in a daze, and she couldn't believe what could happen to her daughter in such a short period of time!

The Empress Dowager glanced at Mrs. Huang in disgust, then turned her head and said to Su Mala: "The decree of Ai's family has been taken away from the wife of the Ministry of Rites, and they will be thrown out of the palace, and their mother and daughter will not be allowed to enter the palace in the future." !"

"The slaves obey the orders!"

"Empress Dowager... My wife is wronged..." Mrs. Huang murmured, her whole body paralyzed on the ground.

The upper body of the two nuns unceremoniously pulled her up: "Mrs. Huang, please go this way!"

The empress dowager's anger remained undiminished, and she dealt with the other two wives unceremoniously. In the end, only Jia Min and the other three stood on one side tremblingly.

"You three, go in with Ai's family!"

After entering the inner room, there were only Concubine Zhao Gui and Lin Daiyu left, while Huang Qingyun and the other three had long since disappeared, probably dragged out together with his mother by the nuns.

Jia Min finally heaved a sigh of relief after seeing Daiyu who was intact but a little frightened, and her eyes fell on Daiyu wearing two jade bracelets that she had never seen before.

"This is rewarded by Concubine Zhao." Daiyu quickly explained.

Jia Min looked at the other two, and was relieved to see that Dai Jiaxiuwen and Yue Huier were also wearing similar-looking bracelets.

Thank you so much, the three wives left the palace with their daughters who reluctantly made an appointment to meet next time.

After getting into the carriage, Jia Min couldn't wait to ask Daiyu the ins and outs of the matter, and her eye circles turned red after listening to it!All the anger accumulated in her chest made her feel like she had nowhere to go—it was all her fault!

"Mother, can I go to sister Yue's house to play in two days?"

Jia Min came back to her senses, remembering what Mrs. Li told her today: "Of course! Let's not go to grandma's house in the future, okay?"

"Well...but what about sister Yingchun?"

"Next time, invite Yingchun Tanchun to our house to play!"

"it is good!"
