Read the letter three lines at a glance.
After finishing reading it, he picked it up and read it again before slowly putting it down.
It was Baimei's handwriting! Baimei and Hongmei were her personal maids. They grew up with Qu Xuexin and learned some words from her. The way they wrote the words was different from others. Qu Xuexin knew it was real at a glance.
There is actually not much written, just about what happened outside.
I have been locked up here for a long time, and I am almost isolated from everything outside. The East Palace is not a place where servants can talk casually.
Although Hongmei often went to the kitchen, she actually just stayed in a corner of the kitchen. No one gave her face and she only picked up some vegetables and rice that others didn't eat.
If this matter was not so serious, the people in the kitchen would not be able to control themselves and would have talked a little more. Hongmei still doesn't know what happened in the mansion, let alone Ji Youran's current situation. She is no longer the person who was able to cover up the situation with one hand when they first entered the mansion.
Bai Mei's letter was much clearer. It described everything that happened outside, mainly about Ji Youran.
Like her master, Bai Mei also believed that Qu Xuexin had fallen to this point because of Ji Youran.
If Ji Youran hadn't been suppressing my young lady in there, how could my young lady become like this now...
"Bai Mei's letter...how did it get in?" Qu Xuexin asked in a hoarse voice after reading it. In this place, her originally clear and beautiful voice had long been hurt by crying.
"It was a servant delivering food. He seemed to know me. When he saw me, he asked me if I was Hongmei, and then gave me the letter."
Hongmei Road.
The East Palace has people who are specifically responsible for delivering dishes, and when others deliver dishes ordered from the market, they also bring their own people with them. However, they are usually delivered early in the morning, and at this time, only people from the kitchen are helping in the kitchen, and no other staff from the East Palace can be seen.
But there are special circumstances, when the masters suddenly want to eat something special, and there is no time to prepare it, they have to go shopping, so they have to deliver the food not only in the morning.
This must be the reason why servants from outside came into the East Palace today.
“Ji Youran… and the former Crown Princess?” Qu Xuexin leaned back and sneered sinisterly. It was all Ji Youran’s fault that she ended up in this situation.
Bai Mei was right. If I didn't try my best to push forward at this time, I would never be able to succeed.
The originally dead heart became excited. The prince had not seen me since I entered the East Palace. If he saw me, he would definitely dote on me wholeheartedly. The prince was an affectionate man. He even kept the crown princess who had died for so long in his heart, let alone me
Bai Mei also said that Ji Youran was relying on nothing more than the influence of the Crown Princess at that time. If the Crown Prince found out that the relationship between Ji Youran and the Crown Princess was not as good as Ji Youran said, he would definitely not pity Ji Youran anymore...
She entered the Eastern Palace, and there was really nothing she could do, but since she was in the Eastern Palace, it was more convenient than those who hadn't entered the Eastern Palace...
Qu Xuexin thought so, and there was another person who thought so too, but this person was not in the palace now. She was Ming Xianer, who was guarding Ji Hanyue's mausoleum.
She also got a piece of news, a piece of news from her former Joy Luck Class.
Her place was equally deserted. She had given it her all at the beginning, regardless of everything, but there was nothing she could do.
She has been waiting, waiting for the opportunity.
Now that she had received news about Qu Moying, she went to the Joy Luck Class to inquire about the news. The news she got was the same: Ji Youran was going to lose power.
It's about to lose power.
As long as Ji Youran leaves, she will have a chance. This was the reason why Ming Xian'er left. She was also waiting for an opportunity. Ji Youran was so domineering at that time. If she didn't stay, she would not be able to survive. By guarding the mausoleum for the Crown Princess, at least she could escape temporarily.
She had faith in the British princess. Under the circumstances at that time, if she had hesitated for even a moment, she would have lost her life.
But the Queen's words were not detailed, so she went back to find the original Joy Luck Buddies.
Although she is no longer with us, the Joy Luck Troupe has not disbanded and is still kept in the prince's East Palace, performing for him from time to time.
After getting the correct information, Ming Xian'er laughed a few times, proudly raised her finger, and sang a piece of opera behind closed doors in the room.
After arriving here, she had to be respectful and proper in her words and actions. She had never been so happy before, and she didn't dare to sing casually.
She can't go back to the Eastern Palace now, but the Joy Luck Troupe is still there, and she is still the owner of the Joy Luck Troupe. Even if she is still there, no one dares to leave her out for her share. Who knows if she can go that far in the end? Besides, the Joy Luck Troupe can still stay in the Prince's Mansion, which is all because of her former reputation.
Can singing for ordinary people be the same as singing for the prince
The way he went out was decent and different from others.
Moreover, the members of the Joy Luck Class have been wandering around the world since they were young, and they care more about brotherhood than ordinary people. This is why even after the class leader is gone, the deputy class leader takes over, but still gives her some dividends every year and secretly sends her some gifts. The deputy class leader is also her good sister, a woman she saved at that time.
Although he is not good-looking, he is a very versatile person and has a close relationship with Ming Xian'er. Over the years, he has never forgotten Ming Xian'er's life-saving grace.
That's it...
No one knew where the news came from, but by the time they discovered it, many people were already spreading it.
Although some people had doubted Ji Youran's character before, thinking that Ji Youran and the prince must have had an ambiguous relationship for a long time and that the Crown Princess had to let Ji Youran enter the East Palace, that reason was naturally false.
But since this matter concerns the crown prince, no one dares to speak carelessly. Doubting Ji Youran's character is just like doubting the crown prince's character. The crown prince has always shown his deep love for the former crown princess in front of others. If words like this were to get out, it would almost be a slap in the crown prince's face.
Who dares to hit the face of the prince
Therefore, everyone understood what he meant before, but they just kept it in their hearts and guessed. Even if they mentioned it accidentally, they would immediately change the subject, for fear of causing trouble by accident. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace was not someone that others could comment on after dinner.
But this time it was different. It had nothing to do with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. It was just about the character of this concubine Ji.
To talk about the distant past, it was heard that this concubine Ji plotted to seize the Crown Princess's dowry and refused to return it to the Ling Anbo Mansion, just because she entered the mansion in a hurry and had no dowry.
At the beginning, everyone said that the Prince's Mansion was unwilling to pay back, but now everyone is putting the blame on Ji Youran, and they suddenly feel that it makes sense.
As the Crown Prince, how could he really embezzle the dowry of the former Crown Princess? He would only do this if it was something he didn't have.
So try your best to do it.
The most recent thing is that the reputation of this concubine Ji is getting worse and worse, and along with this reputation is her character. Her character is not only good, but even ordinary people do better than her. No one really believes that she entered the Eastern Palace to take care of the Crown Princess selflessly because of her good character.
Now that this statement has been spread, it has immediately been recognized by many people, and it is for this reason.
The former Crown Princess was seriously ill, and Concubine Ji asked for Madam Ji's consent and insisted on going to the Eastern Palace to take care of the former Crown Princess.
Madam Ji favored her eldest granddaughter. Although she knew that it was against etiquette at the moment, she still had some selfish motives and agreed to this request. She even sent Ji Youran into the Eastern Palace before her eldest son's consent.
As an unmarried girl, Ji Youran would "accidentally" meet the Crown Prince from time to time. Even though the Crown Prince ignored her, it was not a good thing to continue like this. In order to enter the Eastern Palace, Ji Youran even went too far. The Crown Princess was so angry that her condition became worse, but in the end she had to compromise in front of Madam Ji and Concubine Ji.
If Concubine Ji continues to stay in the Eastern Palace in such an anonymous and statusless manner, there must be an explanation, otherwise the women of the entire Ji family will lose face. How can so many women of the Ji family get married
After being heartbroken, the Crown Princess had to clear Ji Youran's name, saying that it was her idea that he entered the Eastern Palace to take care of her health.
But in fact, the Crown Princess hated Ji Youran so much. After being repeatedly angered by Ji Youran and Madam Ji, the Crown Princess's condition worsened and she died soon after.
This is the rumor outside, and the people are spreading it this way.
In the minds of some people who know the inside story, there is another version of the story. The Crown Princess was seriously injured, and the lady of Ling'anbo's Mansion was afraid that the Crown Princess would pass away and Ling'anbo's Mansion would suffer a loss, so they forced the Crown Princess to let Ji Youran enter the Eastern Palace. Their purpose was to let Ji Youran take over the Crown Princess' position if something happened to her.
This way, only the daughter of the Ji family can hold the position of Crown Princess.
Of course, this also requires the Crown Prince to agree. If it is said that there is nothing between the Crown Prince and Ji Youran, people who know the situation will not believe it. But regardless of whether they believe it or not, no one will talk nonsense. It is just right to put the blame on Ji Youran. It is because of Ji Youran that the Crown Princess was pissed to death. The reason why the Crown Princess died early was entirely because of Madam Ji and Concubine Ji...
Once this statement was made, it was recognized by everyone. Because Pei Luoan was not involved much in this statement, everyone's attention was focused on Ji Youran. They thought that this concubine Ji was the culprit. It was she who forced the Crown Princess to death and it was she who angered the Dowager Concubine to death. Otherwise, the Crown Princess would still be fine now.
Although this is just a rumor, the more people talk about it, the more it seems to be true, the more it seems to be true, and the more they think about it, the more it seems to be possible...
If it is true as the rumors say, Concubine Ji is not the person of noble character as everyone has said before. She is clearly vicious, behaves vilely, and has no shame. How can such a person be the prince's concubine
The topic of the concubine in the Eastern Palace pissing off the Crown Princess to death suddenly became everyone's topic, and someone from somewhere even used an opera to allude to it.
The queen was also seriously ill, and her sister said she came to the palace to accompany her sister, but ended up doing some despicable things. After her sister died, she was married as she wished...
"Your Highness, Concubine Ji has fainted. Please go and see her." A maid knelt outside the study door, facing the slightly closed door, kowtowing and crying.
