Chapter 170 I've Finished Writing
"Yeah, it was quite safe, but we were terrified the whole night and no one slept. It wasn't until Eunuch Su brought people to lift the ban on Yikun Palace that everyone went home and slept peacefully."
Speaking of Eunuch Su, Eunuch Su is here.
"Empress, Eunuch Su is here," Xiao Yingzi came in and asked.
"Please."
"I pay my respects to the Imperial Concubine, and to Concubine Ying and Concubine Rou."
Su Peisheng looked at the little kid on the couch and approached him amiably, "Are you Su Lingling?"
"Yes, yes, I am Su Lingling, Su Feifei. We were one family five hundred years ago."
"Young Master, you are praising me, but who is Concubine Su?"
Lingling bit the remaining sugar painting and said with some sorrow: "Su Feifei is you, you are Su Feifei."
Seeing that the little guy was not in high spirits, Su Peisheng simply stopped exploring. He guessed that it was a nickname given to him by the little guy. Anyway, he didn't mind. You know what, he thought the name was quite nice.
"Your Majesty, we will be welcoming the Third Prince and his family tonight, and we will also be welcoming the English delegation, so please don't be late."
"Ling Rong and the others can't go?"
"Of course you can go. You two young ladies should know this. I came here specially to tell you the news, so I didn't tell you again."
"Then please trouble Eunuch Su to report to the Emperor. I will be present at the time."
Gyeongin Palace
"My lady, you are in this state now. What should we do about the banquet tonight?"
The queen lay on the bed with a pale face, "Jianqiu, go tell the emperor that I am not feeling well and cannot attend the banquet tonight."
"What are you still standing there for? Why aren't you going yet?"
"Your Highness, this Wei Lin is the concubine's man after all. How about I ask another imperial physician to see you again? Or ask if there are any other anti-nausea drugs?"
"No need. Trust the people you employ, and don't employ the people you doubt. I know my own body well. If Wei Lin can make me pregnant without consuming my body, I will trust him. However, I am old and no longer suitable for bearing children. I had anticipated this situation."
"But, Madam, now that Imperial Concubine Hua is powerful, Imperial Concubine He not only successfully returned to the palace, but also regained her position. If this continues, how can there be a place for Madam in the harem?"
"Then what do you want?"
"I don't know that this banquet is not only for the people going out to sea, but also for the people of the diplomatic mission."
"My queen, you used to be so kind to the Third Prince, and Concubine He was also very obedient, but now, Concubine He is relying on her son to gain status. I feel that the kindness you showed to them has all gone to waste, and I feel it's not worth it for you."
"Besides, there are foreign envoys this time, and Your Majesty is the Empress of the Qing Dynasty. If Your Majesty does not go, wouldn't it let the two bitches, Concubine Hua and Concubine He, take the lead?"
"Jianqiu, you have been serving me all these years. Have you ever thought about getting married?"
"My lady, I don't want to get married. I just want to stay with you forever. Please don't drive me away."
"Do you really not want to get married, or do you not want to marry someone outside?"
When the queen saw Jianqiu didn't say anything, she began to guess something.
It's true that Jianqiu has always been loyal, but she was just a maid after all. Why did she take the risk to poison Concubine Xi?
Jianqiu was her personal maid, and everyone knew that she could not escape the blame for Jianqiu's actions. No matter whether Jianqiu succeeded in poisoning them or not, they would never have a chance to turn things around. Why would Jianqiu use such a method of hurting the enemy by a thousand and hurting herself by eight hundred?
She had been thinking about this question since she was reborn, and just now she seemed to have the answer.
"Jianqiu, do you have someone you like?"
"My lady, this servant~"
"Guard? Imperial physician? Which court official or young master of the family?"
The queen asked questions one by one, but Jianqiu remained silent.
The queen understood in her heart, "Is it the emperor?"
"My lady, I am guilty of death. I am guilty of death."
The Queen's expression did not change. "You are so frank. You have followed me for so many years. You know what kind of person I am. Aren't you afraid that I will take action against you?"
"My lady, I know you have a kind heart. For so many years, you have been forced to do this. Now that you have a child, you pray and recite scriptures for the child in your belly every day."
"There are so many pregnant concubines in the palace now, but Your Majesty has not taken action. I know that Your Majesty must be trying to accumulate blessings for the children in her belly."
"I have heard Your Majesty calling for the eldest prince in her sleep before. Your Majesty probably reads the scriptures to help the eldest prince suffer less."
Jianqiu finished speaking and knocked his head heavily to the ground, "Please grant me your blessing, Madam."
There was a flash of murderous intent in the queen's eyes, not because she wanted to climb up the social ladder, but because she met Honghui. But now she couldn't harm anyone. Jianqiu was so ambitious, and who knows who would harm her in the future. Why bother dirtying her own hands?
"Get up, you have been with me for so many years, you know the emperor's temperament and preferences very well, if there is anything you need my help with, you can tell me, today is a good opportunity, whether you can get the emperor's favor depends on you."
"Thank you for your kindness, Madam."
Baohe Hall
Su He was holding Lingling's hand, with An Lingrong and Xia Dongchun beside him. As soon as they stepped into the hall, the noisy chatting voices instantly quieted down.
When Xiao Xia Zi saw that it was the imperial concubine, she hurried over.
"I pay my respects to the Imperial Concubine and the two young ladies. I will lead the way for you three."
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Eunuch Xia."
"You are too polite, my lady. It is my duty."
Xiao Xia Zi walked forward, and An Lingrong and Xia Dongchun reached their seats smoothly. Su He didn't think much about it and followed Xiao Xia Zi straight to the front seat. She knew that the queen could not come today, so Nian Shilan should sit in the upper seat with Fat Ju, and she should sit in the lower seat.
Su He was just about to sit down when Xiao Xia Zi noticed from the corner of her eye that she couldn't see the corner of her elder sister's clothes, so she quickly stopped.
"Madam, your seat is the one up there."
I wish all the children here a happy Children's Day~, and be happy every day~
