Chapter 165 Red Man in Harem
I don't know whether it was joy or worry. Bian Yuzhen couldn't fall asleep in the middle of the night until the fifth update. When I woke up, the sky was already bright.
Looking at his side, it was empty. I don't know when the emperor left. She reached out and stroked the cold bed on half of the side, unconsciously in a trance. Everything came so suddenly that she still can't believe what happened last night. If it hadn't been for the soreness reminding her that the body was as loose, she might have thought it was a dream. A dream that made her feel very complicated!
Last night should have been her wedding night, right?
She has fantasized more than once about the scene of her wedding night, with red candles swaying and her concubine, warm and beautiful. She also knew that being a concubine was different from marrying an ordinary woman, but she did not expect that her most important moment would be like that, trembling, fear, pain, without any warmth, and not beautiful at all.
Thinking of the emperor's appearance last night, she couldn't help shivering.
"Mother, do you want to get up?" Seeing her wake up, the maid came over and asked softly.
"I want to lie down a little longer!" She wrapped the envelope a little tighter.
The maid of honor showed hesitation and said, "Mother, it's getting late. If you don't get up again, I'm afraid you will..."
"I'm afraid what will happen?" Bian Yu really frowned impatiently.
"I'm afraid this... will be laughed at by the wife of another palace!" The maid replied in a low voice.
"Joke? Ha, what do I have to do with them when I can't get up?
"Several ladies came to visit you early this morning. I heard that you haven't got up yet, so I went back and said that I would visit you later!"
Bian Yuzhen became energetic when he heard this and suddenly sat up, "Visit me? Who is there?"
The maids of honor counted four or five people, all of whom came to the palace with her.
"It's strange that I've been in the palace for so many days, and no one has paid attention to me. Why did you suddenly change your sex and come to see me?"
"I probably heard that the Empress went to bed for the emperor last night, so she came to show her goodwill."
"Mother, Beauty Zheng came to visit you and also sent you a small gift." As she spoke, another maid came to report with a beautiful brocade box in her hands.
Bian Yuzhen's eyes lit up. He took the brocade box and opened it. There was a valuable golden pin in it, which was bright and dazzling.
People say that the people in this palace are the most exposed to the wind. It turned out to be true. As soon as she was lucky by the emperor, someone came to her. So is she the rumored power?
It turned out that this was the feeling. She was furious, because the unhappiness generated by ** was swept away. She quickly got up, cleaned it carefully, and went out energetically to see Beauty Zheng.
Wen Caiqing sat at the table and turned over a book. Seeing Chun'er coming into the door with a depressed face, she smiled and said, "What's wrong? Did anyone bully you?
"No one bullies the maidservant, but the maidservant is just uncomfortable!" Chun'er said angrily.
"What's wrong with you?" Wen Caiqing asked knowingly.
"Isn't that Bian Jieyu yet? The emperor went to her for ten days, and now she has become a big celebrity in the palace. Don't care about the royal daughter of Baolin, the talented beauty, or those concubines, all rushed to to please her. A few days ago, I knelt in front of the Empress and begged with tears. In the past few days, she has changed her appearance. Her waist is also straight and her speech is bright. She hugged her back and forwards. If she didn't know, she thought she was the queen.
She doesn't want to think about who she can be credited today? If it hadn't been for her, the emperor would not have been lucky to her. She has gained power now. She doesn't even say thank you to her. She doesn't know how to be grateful at all. She is a villain! The most hateful thing is those who have been coming to please the Empress. Now they don't come to Changqing Palace. They all run to Bian Jieyu's place, a group of villains!"
Wen Caiqing listened to Chun'er's indignant words and smiled disapprovingly, "Isn't it like this in the palace? How many years have you been in the palace? Haven't you seen through the wind direction of the harem?
"The maidservant is not worth it for the Empress!" Chun'er pouted and said, "That Bian Jieyu is not even half as good as the Empress. Why do you shout five or six times in the harem and occupy all the scenery?"
"Let her go." Wen Caiqing's tone was faint, but his chest was a little annoyed. Obviously, it was arranged by himself, and he also knew that Jiang Shize's favorite Bian Yu was really angry with her, and he always felt that there was something in his heart, which was not good. No matter what I do, I don't feel secure and there is no decline.
The more you want to put aside this emotion, the stronger you feel. She couldn't sit still and stood up, "Chuner, let's go out for a walk!"
"Yes, Empress!" Chun'er hurriedly responded and came to take her out of Changqing Palace. Walking to Chaoxia Pavilion, she saw Mrs. Yi talking to an eunuch from afar. She couldn't help but stop and frowned slightly.
Is Mrs. Yi going to the palace too frequently recently? Although she has been vaguely warned, Mrs. Yi is clear about what happened between her and Yi Yun. If she slips away, if it reaches the ears of the empress dowager and the queen, her life will not be better. Most importantly, she didn't want Jiang Shize to know about Yi Yun's existence.
As long as Mrs. Yi enters the palace, it is a potential threat to her.
Thinking emptyly, Mrs. Yi seemed to have finished talking with the eunuch. She gave him a bag of silver and got up and left.
"Chun'er, stop that father-in-law!" Wen Caiqing ordered.
"Yes!" Chun'er agreed and ran over quickly and brought the eunuch over.
"I have just met the Empress Li!" The eunuch thought that he had been seen by Mrs. Yi's silver and looked panicked.
Wen Caiqing recognized this eunuch as the eunuch of the internal servant's office, named Ma Liu, "Eunuch Ma, what did you say to Mrs. Yi just now?" She asked with a smile.
"Mother, it's nothing, just say a few words casually." Ma Liu replied covertly.
Wen Caiqing smiled disapprovingly, "Mrs. Yi should have come to visit the Empress Dowager. It seems to be a little too far from the Shou'an Palace, and it is not easy to leave the palace, and it seems to be a little far from the Chamberlain's Office. You don't want to tell me that you met Mrs. Yi by chance, do you?
"This..." Ma Liu had a cold sweat on his forehead and hesitated not to know how to answer.
"I don't want to do anything to you, let alone spit out the money you received. You just need to answer my questions truthfully." Wen Caiqing's eyes turned around his face and saw that he seemed to be hesitant. She smiled, "Ma Liu, who do you think Bengong and Mrs. Yi are you closer to?"
Of course, Ma Liu could hear the threat in her words and hurriedly replied, "Of course, I'm close to your mother!"
"Then do you want to answer my question?"
"Yes, I obey. It's true that I didn't meet Mrs. Yi by chance, but was invited by Mrs. Yi. She wants to ask the slave about the redemption of the maid!"
Wen Caiqing's eyes flashed quickly, "For the maid of honor? Which maid?"
"This Mrs. Yi didn't say anything. She just asked me what to do if she wanted to redeem the maid of honor."
Wen Caiqing looked at Ma Liu suspiciously, "Can the maid of honor also redeem herself?"
"This... is not allowed at a certain age!" Ma Liu's cold sweat flowed down his forehead, but he didn't dare to wipe it. He bowed and replied, "But there are also some special circumstances. Some maids of honor are accidentally injured, disabled, or have some diseases, so they can't stay in the palace and have to send them out to the palace..."
Ma Liu did not go on, and Wen Caiqing also understood the article. I'm afraid that those eunuchs used this excuse to let the maids out of the palace and make money for themselves.
Although Mrs. Yi has never entered the palace, she has entered the palace frequently. I'm afraid it's just to redeem a maid of honor and come to the palace to find a way.
As for which maid of honor, you can think about it with your toes and figure out who it is!
"Mother, do you have anything else to ask the slave?" Ma Liu saw Wen Caiqing's face became serious. He didn't say anything for a long time. He was uncomfortable and asked in a trembling voice.
Wen Caiqing restrained her thoughts and smiled, "No, you can go!"
"Yes, thank you for your kindness, and I will leave!" Ma Liu left in a hurry.
"Wait!" Wen Caiqing shouted at him again, "What else did Mrs. Yi say besides asking you about the redemption for the maid of honor?"
"Return to the mother, Mrs. Yi also said that she would come back to find me in the future..."
Wen Caiqing nodded, "Well, I know. If Mrs. Yi comes to you again in the future, you can come and tell me immediately that I will reward you, okay?
"Yes!" Ma Liu hurriedly agreed, not to mention that there was a reward, even if there was no reward, he now has a small braid in someone's hand. How dare he not agree?
Wen Caiqing was very satisfied with his attitude and waved his hand to send him away. But her mood was a little confused. The faces of Mrs. Yi, Yi Yun and Haiman appeared in turn in front of her eyes.
Since Mrs. Yi personally came to the palace to find a way for Hyman to leave the palace, it means that the Yi family has admitted the woman and regarded her as the daughter-in-law of the Yi family. At the beginning, she herself had never been recognized by Master Yi. Jealousy or envy? She can't explain it clearly. Anyway, she feels a little uncomfortable.
"Madam, look!" Chun'er suddenly pointed to the front and shouted.
Wen Caiqing raised her eyes and followed her hand. She saw a group of people surrounded opposite the lotus pond, including maids, eunuchs and concubines. It seemed that something had happened.
"What's going on?" She frowned.
"I'm going to ask!" Chun'er said and ran over, pulled a palace man to ask a few words, and then ran back, "Mother, in front of you is Bian Jieyu teaching people a lesson!"
"Teach people?"
"Yes, I heard that a lady accidentally bumped into Bian Jieyu and had a quarrel, and the two fought. Now Bian Jieyu is teaching her a lesson. Shall we go and have a look?
