Chapter 1782 Confidant? Selfish?
It was really a man who knelt outside the hall and the pot was smashed from the sky.
But this matter has nothing to do with her, and she won't take the blame.
However, even though Concubine Qi defended her, the people around her still looked at her with strange eyes.
At this time, He Zhongkang said to Concubine Qi: "Don't be anxious about Concubine Qi. Of course, this matter has nothing to do with you, but you have to listen to your servant finish the following words."
If Concubine Qi hadn't interrupted him, he would have told the truth.
"..." In this way, Concubine Qi breathed a sigh of relief and stopped talking.
He Zhongkang continued: "Although this palace maid is from Concubine Qi's courtyard, according to the results found by the Ministry of Justice, she was bought by Concubine Xin."
For a moment, a hint of surprise flashed in everyone's eyes, and they turned their eyes from Concubine Qi to Concubine Xin.
This woman has never had any sense of existence, seems gentle and elegant, cultivates her body and cultivates her mind, and only loves tea ceremony.
Even if she did this, she was not as panicked as Concubine Qi.
Instead, he knelt calmly and happily accepted everyone's strange gaze.
Then, she knelt down to the fourth master who was in charge of the head, "This matter was done by me. I deserve to die. Please give me a punishment."
She said so calmly and seemed so open-minded.
The Fourth Master looked at Concubine Xin in the lower head and opened his lips lightly: "Concubine Xin of Tong Jia, the legitimate daughter of Guangling, the general of the Manchu Zhengbai Banner, is jealous by nature and spreads rumors about the princess's life experience. She is now demoted to a commoner and is given a white silk!"
A thunderous sound hovered over the Hall of Heart.
After the Fourth Master issued this imperial edict, he said "retreat the court" and then walked into the Yangxin Palace.
Then, Ruoyin, concubines, and ministers of the king and worker all dispersed.
When Ruoyin brought Ai'er back to Yongshou Palace, a strange palace maid walked up to her and said, "Empress, my master wants to see you."
"Your head? Who?" Ruoyin asked.
"Concubine Xin." The palace maid replied.
After hearing this, Ruoyin didn't ask why, but just stood there and thought for a while.
In the harem, whenever she has a deep hatred with her, she will send them away when she is about to die, in fact, it is just to explain the grudges clearly.
But for this Concubine Xin, she believes that she doesn’t have much grudge against Concubine Xin.
It’s nothing more than Ruoyin was not in the palace for years, Concubine Xin took charge of the harem and thought she was the top leader in the harem.
As a result, Ruoyin returned to the palace, and the right to control the harem fell into Ruoyin's hands again, and Concubine Xin felt unbalanced.
But since Concubine Xin took the initiative to meet her, she still thinks there is something wrong.
Anyway, in her opinion, Concubine Xin was not the kind who wanted to scold her before she died and had a good time.
So Ruoyin handed Ai'er over to the palace maid, "Ai'er, wait for the emperor's mother to come back."
"Okay." Ai'er nodded first, and then asked: "Mother, can I go to find my elder brother, second brother, and fifth brother to play? I haven't played with them for a long time."
I heard before that she was not the Emperor Ama's biological child, so she was so inferior that she didn't dare to go out.
Now, I can play with my brothers again.
"Of course, go." Ruoyin said to Ai'er with a smile.
After the slave took Ai'er to find the three princes, Ruoyin took the phoenix chariot to Xinfei's Xianfu Palace.
When he got there, Li Fukang sang a newspaper.
Ruoyin got off the chariot and held Banmei's hand into Xianfu Palace.
As soon as he entered the yard, Ruoyin saw Concubine Xin sitting in the hall opposite him.
The other party sat in the middle of the hall and looked at her faintly.
Ruoyin brought her slave into the hall, and Concubine Xin actually saluted her calmly.
Concubine Xin moved, scaring Banmei and Ruxia so much that she thought Concubine Xin wanted to assassinate Ruoyin, and they all protected Ruoyin in front of Ruoyin.
Facts have proved that Concubine Ren Xin was really just a tribute.
Ruoyin sat down in the sage chair in the room, "Tell me, what's the matter with me?"
"There are too many people who know about this, I'm afraid it's not good." Concubine Xin glanced at the guards and slaves behind Ruoyin.
Ruoyin glanced at the servants around her, and she shut up some irrelevant things, leaving only Banmei and Ruxia.
And none of the servants around Concubine Xin left, and all of them left.
After the clearing of the scene, Concubine Xin first told Ruoyin lightly: "Do you know that in the years you were not in the palace, the emperor has given me the most days of my life every month."
Ruoyin: "But I heard that every time he comes, he plays chess with you and talks about some serious things, that's all."
Concubine Xin: "Yes, I'm his confidante."
Ruoyin nodded suddenly, "But you don't have the final say about this matter, the emperor has the final say. But he has never favored you, nor has he ever said that you are his confidante, and he will kill you. So, what is this called?"
As she said that, she smiled at Concubine Xin and said with certainty: "This can only be considered self-indulgent."
As soon as the voice fell, Concubine Xin suddenly smiled bitterly, "The Queen's mouth is so powerful, I admire it. In fact, after saying so much, I don't want to show off anything, I just want to say that I thought I could continue to have all this, and even, I thought I could influence the emperor and make him fall in love with me."
"But, after all, I thought. A few years later, he still looked cold, but when you come back, he treats you like a treasure, so I am not convinced. I want to ruin your reputation."
"At this point, I can only blame myself for it." Concubine Xin said, taking a deep breath, as if she was a little regretful. Then, she said to Ruoyin lightly: "I'm asking you to come today because I want to make a deal with you."
Ruoyin chuckled from her nasal cavity.
She knew that Concubine Xin was not the kind of person who just showed off and provoked before her death. There must be another reason to look for her, "What deal?"
"I know why the Empress Dowager is cold to the emperor and the fundamental reason why she hates the emperor. I can resolve the hatred in her heart, but you must save my life." Concubine Xin asked.
Wakain: "You seem to be very sure that I will make a deal with you."
Concubine Xin: "This incident has always been the knot in the heart of the emperor. Aren't you in love with the emperor? I really want to untie this knot for him."
Ruoyin: "..."
Concubine Xin: "I have heard that since the earthquake, the Queen Mother's health has not been very good. To put it bluntly, if I had not untied the knot between the emperor and the Queen Mother earlier, I would probably have no chance."
Ruoyin: "Are you not afraid that I will take advantage of you, and in the end I will still take your life?"
Concubine Xin: "If the Empress is such a person, the Emperor would not have been devoted to you. I believe in the Emperor's vision."
Even if this Concubine Xin trusts Ruoyin, she doesn't want to say good-sounding.
Ruoyin's eyes turned slightly about the deal proposed by Concubine Xin.
