The Imperial Concubine Just Wants To Be a Salted Fish Every Day

Chapter 34: Stick blame

Views:

In this harem, there is a huge difference in the treatment of those who have children and those who have no children.

Not to mention giving birth to a prince, even just giving birth to a princess is much better than a concubine who can't give birth to anything.

Favor is the goal they compete for, and the heir is the foundation of their life.

Concubine Ning is now in her thirties. Compared with the delicate new concubines who have just entered the palace, she is already old and fading. The emperor rarely spends the night in her palace in recent years.

But even so, others did not dare to look down on her, her share was not less, her life in the palace was very nourishing, and even the queen had to give her some face.

All this because she gave birth to the fourth prince.

Concubine Ning didn't think much of it when she learned that the queen had summoned her. After dressing up a little, she took a sedan chair to Jiaofang Hall.

The palace maid carefully helped Concubine Ning to the ground.

Concubine Ning looked at the imposing door of Jiaofang Hall in front of her and clicked her tongue, feeling a little disdain and jealousy in her heart.

As the lord of the six palaces, Empress Qin is so beautiful that everyone wants to flatter her, but everyone knows very well that Empress Qin is actually a hen who can't lay eggs. , and never got pregnant again.

The emperor and the empress dowager forbid everyone to discuss this matter, but everyone is not stupid, and you can guess that it must be that Empress Qin hurt her body during a miscarriage that year, which made her unable to conceive again.

Concubine Ning thought more than once that Empress Qin was occupying the kennel and not shitting.

Obviously can't give birth to children, but still occupy the queen's position and refuse to let the virtuous, without self-knowledge!

The palace maid reminded in a low voice, "My lady, be careful of the threshold."

Concubine Ning stepped over the high threshold of Jiaofang Hall, walked into the hall, and bowed her knees to Queen Qin.

Empress Qin was wearing a black wide-sleeved long dress, such a dark color on her body made her more and more indifferent.

The big palace maid, Pearl, took two steps forward with a silk handkerchief in her hand, and inside the handkerchief lay a round jade pendant.

Empress Qin asked, "Is this something from Concubine Ning's palace?"

When Concubine Ning saw the jade pendant, her pupils shrank slightly.

She grabbed her sleeve subconsciously, forced a smile on her face, and tried to make herself look more calm and natural.

"This was given to the concubine by the empress dowager last year. I didn't see it when I was arranging things recently. The concubine thought she had lost it accidentally. The concubine was about to report it to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and asked them to help find it. I didn't expect it to fall into the hands of the Empress."

Empress Qin said coldly: "This jade pendant was found on the body of a palace maid called Epiphyllum."

Concubine Ning said quickly without thinking, "My concubine doesn't know this person."

"Bengong doesn't care if you know Epiphyllum. I only know that Epiphyllum wants to poison the prince, and Epiphyllum has your jade pendant on her body."

Concubine Ning was shocked: "The concubine never thought of poisoning the prince, the concubine is innocent!"

"Innocent?" Empress Qin smiled coldly, "In this harem, no one is innocent."

"My concubine is really wronged, I beg the Empress to investigate!"

Concubine Ning knelt down and kowtowed, and layers of cold sweat broke out on her back.

Empress Qin looked at her coldly: "This jade pendant is the evidence that you murdered the crown prince. Even if you refuse to plead guilty, this palace can't spare you today. Come, drag Concubine Ning down with the stick and blame it for thirty."

Concubine Ning screamed in horror: "The Empress, please spare your life!"

Two strong maids walked in, grabbed Ning Fei's arms from left to right, covered her mouth, and roughly dragged her out.

Immediately afterwards, Concubine Ning's screams were heard outside.
