The Empress is Always Unambitious

Chapter 109: Extra Secret

Views:

When Yao Xueqi entered the Fifth Prince's Palace, the Fifth Prince was only fifteen years old.

That year, she was seventeen years old.

It is also the time when thin spring clothes are placed on the swing.

The Yao family was only a sixth-rank official family, so Yao Xueqi was just a small concubine when she entered the prince's mansion.

A few years later, the Sixth Prince fell to his death while riding his horse.

All this had nothing to do with Yao Xueqi.

Later, the emperor fell ill and was in poor health. Under pressure from his ministers, the fifth prince became the crown prince.

In the Empress Dowager's backyard, under the Crown Princess, there should be two Liangdi, six Liangyuan, ten Chenghui, sixteen Zhaoxun, and twenty-four Fengyi.

At that time, Feng became a concubine when she entered the mansion.

And Yao Xueqi only got the position of Zhaoxun.

It’s not surprising, after all, her family background is average and her favor is average.

Originally, everything was fine, and there was still some degree of love.

Life is not difficult.

Until that day, I heard words I shouldn't have heard in the garden of the mansion.

At that time, there was a eunuch named Fifteen serving the prince.

Like Chusi, he is a eunuch who grew up with the prince.

Yao Xueqi took her maid to appreciate the flowers in the garden of the mansion. After seeing the prince, she did not dodge but hid secretly.

She regretted this action countless times later, but at that time, as a young girl, she just wanted to secretly take a look at her husband.

Listen to what he says.

She heard bits and pieces of words like "vendor", "dealing with", and "dead", and her curiosity suddenly grew.

Until a gust of wind blew the rest of the words into her ears.

"Now that Prince Hua is dead, who would be so blind as to investigate so many things? There is no point in suspecting. Concubine Yang is also at the end of her strength. Who would know that it was you, Your Highness, who did it?"

Yao Xueqi stood there in shock, King Hua...

Prince Hua is the sixth prince who died last year.

Was he killed by the prince

She got nervous and her hand hit the stone. The silver bracelet on her wrist collided with the stone, making a dinging sound.

The next moment, she was caught by Qi Yixiu.

Later, Yao Xueqi thought countless times that she shouldn't have been so cowardly at that time.

Qi Yixiu stood there and looked at her: "What are you doing hiding there?"

At that time, Yao Xueqi replied: "I heard everything."

What a stupid answer! For many years afterwards, she felt that she was stupid enough to die.

Just based on this answer, how could Qi Yixiu not hate her

At that time, Qi Yixiu, who was still the crown prince, sneered: "Oh? What did you hear?"

Yao Xueqi finally sensed the danger: "I didn't do that, Your Highness, please spare my life!"

Qi Yixiu looked at her: "Tell me, what did you hear?"

Yao Xueqi listened to this gentle voice. Although fear rose in her heart, it was also mixed with trust in her husband.

So she raised her head, smiled and did the stupidest thing in her life.

She smiled and said, "The mother and son of Concubine Yang and the mother and son of His Highness have always been at odds. These things are as they should be. I will keep it a secret."

What was she thinking at that time

If she keeps a secret between herself and His Highness, perhaps His Highness will like her more.

After all, they both have the same secret, right

At that time, Hu Nanfeng entered the palace. Because she and the prince had a mutual understanding, she was very favored.

Who wouldn’t be envious

But later, Qi Yixiu just sneered: "Tell me, should I spare your life?"

Yao Xueqi, who was still immersed in anticipation, was stunned and then her face turned pale.

"Your Highness..." "Idiot. Fifteen, deal with that girl." Qi Yixiu sneered at Yao Xueqi: "As for you, if you don't want to die, you should know what to do."

After saying that, he left.

Yao Xueqi's maid was strangled to death by Fifteen.

To teach her a lesson.

Yao Xueqi fell ill as soon as she returned, naturally because she was scared.

But no one in the entire mansion had ever invited an imperial physician or a doctor from outside to help her.

This is to let her fend for herself.

No one knew how she had offended Qi Yixiu, but she had always been favored by him, and now she had completely fallen out of favor.

The Crown Princess has always been one who doesn't mind other people's business. If the Crown Prince doesn't care, she won't care either.

Who among the people below doesn't wish her dead

A few days later, news came that Fifteen had drowned in the lotus pond in the mansion.

He said he fell because he drank too much.

Fifteen loved drinking. At that time, Yao Xueqi thought that Fifteen had always been a big mouth.

So, His Highness died because he talked too much and I heard it

Or, since he did that thing, he was destined to die

Also, am I being despised because I discovered that thing, or am I being despised because I am stupid enough to be complacent after discovering it

No matter what, Fifteen died, but she survived.

She didn't die of illness after all.

But after that, I never slept with him again.

At first, life was really hard, but gradually no one cared about her anymore.

After much perseverance, he finally entered the palace.

When she was canonized as Baolin, she still had fantasies.

What about Baolin of the eighth rank? Will there be another chance in the future

After all, there are imperial concubines below.

Since the emperor didn't ask her to be a concubine, does that mean he doesn't hate her as much

But year after year, Baolin is still Baolin.

All the concubines who came out of the harem have been promoted, except Yao Baolin, who will always be Yao Baolin.

As she grew older, she gradually understood a lot.

First of all, if I hadn't been curious, none of this would have happened.

Secondly, even if I heard everything, these things wouldn’t have happened if I wasn’t so stupid.

After seeing Jing Meiren, she knew even more clearly that being courageous was not a problem at all.

It just depends on when you are brave enough.

Later, she figured it out. Was it true that no one in the court or the country, and even the late emperor, knew who was responsible for the death of King Hua

But this is not important anymore, because the King Hua, whom the late emperor loved, is dead.

After his death, Concubine Yang lost her support, and the people who depended on him had to disperse.

No matter how much pain the late emperor was in, he couldn't do anything because of him.

Therefore, Qi Yixiu had to be made the crown prince.

Hand over this vast territory to him.

We cannot mention the circumstances surrounding King Hua's death. Until his death, King Hua could only bear the consequences of his arrogance and recklessness, which caused countless casualties among the people, and he ultimately reaped the consequences of his own actions.

Yao Baolin woke up from his dream and wiped his tears gently.

What does it matter if you know it? There is no regret medicine in the world. For many things, if they are wrong, they are wrong, and they are over.

Until now, thinking too much just makes me sad.

But maybe she will really have to be Baolin for the rest of her life.

That was fine, after all, that matter was over, the emperor was still the emperor, and she was no longer the same person she was back then.

That's fine, after all, that incident is over, the emperor is still the emperor. She is no longer the same person she was back then. That's fine, after all, that incident is over, the emperor is still the emperor. She is no longer the same person she was back then.
