After the dinner, Concubine Shen was blocked by Concubine Mi on the way back to the tent.
"Sister Concubine Mi, what are you doing?" Concubine Shen asked with raised eyebrows while supporting her belly.
The palace maids and eunuchs around hurriedly rushed up to protect the imperial concubine and empress, preventing Concubine Mi from suddenly attacking. Seeing this, Concubine Mi sneered, but didn't say anything.
Shen Yuqing looked at her quietly.
The two looked at each other for a while, and Concubine Mi pretended to be relaxed and said, "Sister Guifei, won't you invite me to sit in the tent? It's so late, and the night wind outside is cool, so it's not safe."
Shen Yuqing pondered for a bit, then smiled slightly: "It's because I didn't think carefully, Sister Mi Concubine, come and sit with me."
Said that he was the first to lead the way, and took Concubine Mi back to his tent.
After entering the tent, the two sat facing each other outside. Shen Yuqing didn't talk nonsense, and asked directly: "Sister Mi Concubine came here during the day, and I happened to be resting in the palace, so I didn't see her. I don't know what's important for Mi Concubine?"
Concubine Mi rubbed the cup in her hand, she didn't speak for a while, she seemed to be organizing her words, and she didn't know how to speak for a while.
After a long time, she said calmly, "There is news from Loulan."
Shen Yuqing listened attentively.
"I was abandoned by my father."
Shen Yuqing looked at her in surprise, not quite understanding why King Loulan gave up Concubine Mi, and why Concubine Mi told her about it.
Concubine Mi looked towards the entrance of the tent, there was only pitch black night outside, it looked like a mouth swallowing people, it was eerie.
"Ayi said, the atmosphere between you and His Majesty the Emperor is a bit strange, it's not like lovers. Instead, it's like..." She struggled for a while, how should I describe it, "Mutual loathing?"
Shen Yuqing was not surprised that someone could tell, she remembered that "Ayi" was the maid brought by Concubine Mi from Loulan. Concubine Mi has only this maid who has been with her since she was a child, and the other maids are sent after entering the palace.
This Ayi used to be Mi Concubine's bodyguard, so he obviously has some martial arts background. Now it seems that she is not only good at martial arts, but also very sensitive to people's emotions.
There are always some capable people and strangers in the world. Shen Yuqing has never guarded against people in the palace before, and she was found to be normal. Most people would think that they were delusional, but Ayi dared to tell Concubine Mi, which shows that she is very sure, I am afraid that she has observed it many times before.
Shen Yuqing looked at the maid standing behind Concubine Mi, she had a beautiful face from the Western Regions, with deep and charming features. Ayi doesn't like to laugh, she is a little silent, but the way she looks at Concubine Mi is gentle and gentle.
Shen Yuqing suddenly felt blessed and wanted to understand something.
Ayi seems to like Concubine Mi
That's why she is very concerned about Concubine Mi's affairs, and also the man that Concubine Mi loves. In this way, she noticed the strange atmosphere between that man and Shen Yuqing.
She thought that since Concubine Shen Gui was not the emperor's sweetheart, after hearing the news, Concubine Mi would be happy. So she told Concubine Mi, but Concubine Mi was not very happy, instead she showed such a sudden expression, she even took it for granted.
"Is he heartless?" Mi Fei asked suddenly.
Knowing who she was asking, Shen Yuqing hesitated for a moment, feeling that she should not stimulate Concubine Mi with real news now. So she nodded.
As long as she wants to lie, no one can see that she is wrong. So Concubine Mi believed it. People who become emperors really have no heart, and they only have calculations in their eyes.
"I see." Concubine Mi pulled the corners of her lips, "I really envy you."
Shen Yuqing did not fall into the false love woven by the emperor, no, in fact, it should be said that this false love was imagined by their women themselves. The emperor just acted according to their wishes, and didn't even act. Looking at them with one look, those women could imagine that the emperor was looking at them.
Concubine Mi also thought that if she could keep her heart at a glance with Shen Yuqing, maybe she wouldn't be in such a mess now. But Concubine Mi's family knew about her family affairs, she couldn't keep her heart at all, she wanted too much and was ruined by her own greed.
Shen Yuqing remained silent, not knowing what to say.
Concubine Mi obviously didn't need her persuasion, she saw everything very clearly. Now that he came to her, he probably wanted to verify some of her guesses, and wanted to give up on himself.
In this regard, Shen Yuqing is very cooperative.
Speaking of it, she actually felt that Concubine Mi was quite pitiful. She could have been her princess in Loulan, but she went all the way to an unfamiliar country to be a concubine, and competed with a group of women for men. If she was still in Loulan, still the proud Princess Loulan, she could find any kind of man she wanted, and how many son-in-laws she wanted to raise.
In Dayan, her status as Princess Loulan was nothing, and she was deprived of the right to have children.
Dayan would not let a foreign princess give birth to a child, to prevent the throne from falling to the half-blooded prince. In today's era, bloodlines are extremely valued, and the kingdom of the Central Plains can only accept pure-blooded Central Plains emperors.
Concubine Mi got married, and it was a disaster.
Then, Concubine Mi asked some questions about the emperor, and even about the relationship between Shen Yuqing and the emperor.
She obviously wanted to find more evidence to prove her conjecture, so that she could completely dispel her previous delusions.
If she was trapped in the quagmire of the emperor again, she was afraid that she would go crazy.
Shen Yuqing thought about it and helped people to the end. It's rare to have a real person in the harem, and she can't bear to see him sink into the mud.
Although everyone is hostile, in fact there is no enmity between Shen Yuqing and them. At the very least, there is no grudge between her and Concubine Mi.
Among those who framed Shen Yuqing, there was never Concubine Mi. As Concubine Mi said herself, she doesn't like to play tricks behind her back, she likes to go straight.
Shen Yuqing made her bear the blame several times due to various reasons. Strictly speaking, it should not be that Shen Yuqing disliked Concubine Mi, but that Concubine Mi hated Shen Yuqing. But Concubine Mi didn't. She probably didn't know that Shen Yuqing was behind it.
So, aside from the fact that Shen Yuqing had to deal with Concubine Mi in order to cooperate with His Majesty the Emperor, she still admired Concubine Mi.
If Concubine Mi looked away, she wouldn't have to confront Concubine Mi in the future. When Concubine Mi became a transparent person in the palace, His Majesty the Emperor naturally did not need to deal with Concubine Mi.
The reason why he planned to deal with Concubine Mi before was because Concubine Mi had been favored before and was very arrogant. His Majesty the Emperor was narrow-minded, and recorded all the things that Concubine Mi did, such as pushing people into the water and so on.
Although Concubine Mi is very measured, no matter if she slaps her or pushes her into the water, she won't put her in real danger. Ignoring the problem of hands-on approach is essentially just a lesson. But because of the problem with the way he did it, the emperor didn't intend to let her go.
What's more, Loulan has been restless recently.
For the time being, the emperor didn't know that Loulan had given up on Concubine Mi, and was planning to suppress Concubine Mi to suppress Loulan's arrogance.
Logically speaking, since Loulan is weak because of the alliance army, it should be more humble, hold Dayan's thigh tightly, and use Dayan to attack those who try to pull it off the horse. And it did so, but unfortunately Dayan didn't give it the reaction it wanted.
When Lou Lan asked Dayan for help, His Majesty the Emperor responded indifferently.
It's hard to say whether he blamed Concubine Mi for her arrogance, or Concubine Mi because of Lou Lan's problems. In short, Fu Yanjun chose to do nothing and did not help Loulan.
Lou Lan had nowhere to ask for help, so she was naturally annoyed. At this time, Dayan released news that he planned to support the next first country in the Western Regions, obviously giving up on Loulan. In a rage, Loulan no longer expected Dayan at all, and also angered Concubine Mi who couldn't win the emperor's heart, so she gave up Concubine Mi.
Even if this incident is over, Lou Lan probably doesn't plan to rekindle the old relationship with Dayan. Concubine Mi is of no use to them.
When Concubine Mi said these things, her tone was very cold, as if she was not the one who was abandoned, but she was just an outsider responsible for relaying the story.
"So that's the case." Shen Yuqing suddenly realized.
After a while, seeing that Concubine Mi still had that unrequited expression, she sighed: "Ayi should have found out, right? Not only the emperor and I are not lovers, but the empress is also the same. But They don't hate each other like we do."
"Yes." Speaking of this, Concubine Mi nodded, "I know this, Ayi said it."
As she spoke, she looked back at Ayi, who nodded at her.
Shen Yuqing continued: "I don't know what happened to the emperor and the empress, but I have a guess."
"what?"
"The emperor doesn't want anyone to be a queen and give birth to a son, at least not now. So he hired a queen to occupy this position until he finds a suitable birth mother for the prince." Shen Yuqing was telling the truth, but selectively. Informed, "The queen is afraid that she has another sweetheart, the emperor probably promised her to wait for this matter, and let her go away with her sweetheart."
Concubine Mi contemplated: "In this way, it really makes sense, and the doubts in my heart have been answered."
She always wanted to be different. Since there is no love between the empress and the empress, why doesn't the empress feel resentful? Shen Yuqing hated the emperor's putting on airs, she thought it was normal. But the queen's attitude she found very abnormal.
When a normal woman enters the palace, no matter what she enters the palace for, she will definitely compete for the emperor's favor. With pampering, whether it is to satisfy love fantasy or come for power, you can get what you want.
As for the queen, she occupies the position of queen for nothing, and she is so magnanimous without much favor. It's not the Virgin Mary, is it possible
After thinking this through, Concubine Mi finally had a different expression. She sneered: "Sure enough, he is a good emperor. In his eyes, all beautiful women are dead bones. Everything is for his country."
The imperial concubine nodded in agreement, and gave Concubine Mi some popular science about the emperor's treatment of concubines, and the emperor's emphasis on the country and the neglect of his daughter.
She confirmed that Concubine Mi would never say anything. Concubine Mi is a tight-lipped person, and sometimes she is slandered, but when it doesn't have any real impact on her, she doesn't even bother to argue.
"So you mean that the last time Concubine Fu was drugged, Concubine Fu did it herself?" Concubine Mi was silent for a while, then asked back.
It happened a long time ago, and the people in the harem probably forgot about it. But Concubine Mi will not go, because this matter was finally thrown to Concubine Mi.
Concubine Fu was drugged and had to enter the palace. In the end, it was found on Concubine Mi's head that Concubine Mi used poison to control the maid and asked the concubine to find someone to administer the medicine to Concubine Fu. After the empress's interrogation, Concubine Mi was temporarily imprisoned in Fengyi Palace, but the matter was left alone.
Because there was no definite proof that she was the maid of Concubine Mi's envoy, the palace lady who was controlled by the poison died suddenly, and there was no proof of her death, so naturally it was impossible to interrogate whether it was Concubine Mi's order after the farewell. Concerning the death of the court lady, Concubine Mi once suspected that it was the secret message that Lou Lan left in the palace.
After the maid died, Concubine Mi was released due to insufficient evidence. There is no loss, but all the people around him have changed. Those palace maids and eunuchs who were poisoned left Fairy Thread Palace, and a new group of people came, most of them were the emperor's people, who watched her in real time, which made her feel very uncomfortable.
Because of this, Concubine Mi became more and more silent, and saw the emperor's face more and more clearly.
Now Shen Yuqing told her that everything was directed and acted by Concubine Fu, and the reason why the palace lady suddenly became the mastermind behind the scenes was because the emperor wanted to suppress her. Concubine Mi's heart was completely calm, it didn't matter, it didn't matter anymore.
It was my luck that time, the maid died, otherwise she might not have survived.
"Thank you." Concubine Mi stood up and sincerely thanked, "Thank you for telling me, I should go back."
She still felt something was wrong when she looked at it, and she didn't know what she was thinking. But Shen Yuqing has said everything she can say, and it's hard to say more, after all, she and Concubine Mi are not very close.
After accepting Concubine Mi's thank you, he sent him to the gate of the tent. After thinking about it, he asked the little eunuch to give her a ride.
After the figure disappeared from sight, Shen Yuqing went back to the inner room and asked someone to bring water to wash.
"Your Majesty, why do you have to talk so much to her?" The nuns disagreed.
Concubine Shen Gui glanced at them: "I have my own measure."
It doesn't hurt to take care of the pregnancy. But if they rely on being the emperor, intervene in her other affairs, and try to sway her decision, then hehe.
Shen Yuqing was never one who didn't fight back after suffering a loss. In the past, she let the nuns toss in the spirit of cooperation, but there are some things that the emperor can't control, and she won't let some servants intervene.
Seeing this, the nuns froze and shut up embarrassingly. Although I was a little unhappy in my heart, I couldn't say anything.
They can rely on their old age to sell their old age in front of other people, but there are always some people who don't accept this, such as queens, such as noble concubines.
After Shen Yuqing washed up, she went to rest. Today, because of Concubine Mi's affairs, it dragged on till midnight, so Fu Qiushui may have already fallen asleep. It's not good to bother her anymore, so I can only guard the empty boudoir by myself.
On the second day, Shen Yuqing got up a little later.
"Your Majesty is awake." Bi Ge handed over the veil to Shen Guifei to cleanse her face, "Your Majesty has spoken today to see what you guys are capable of. At this moment, all the young masters have entered the forest, trying their best to compete Competitive!"
Shen Yuqing lacked interest: "What is there to compare it to? Looking at what it was like yesterday, I guess it's still the same ranking today."
In yesterday's prey ranking, remove the others, and just look at the boys and buddies to know what the ranking is today. Going to do the comparison again now is just unwilling.
Some gaps cannot be offset with a single effort.
If there is no accident, the four young masters of the Xiao family still come out on top today.
"Where are your Majesty and the adults?" Shen Yuqing asked.
"Your Majesty and your lords have gone to other places to watch."
Because it was agreed that it depends on the ability of the children, so the elders will not meddle in it. So there is nothing else to do, but there are other entertainments in the hunting ground, such as some horse racing and archery activities.
Those who are interested can go to play these, those who are not interested can walk around at will, look at the surrounding scenery, and relax.
Among the crowd looking at the scenery, the concubines are naturally indispensable. When the concubines are fine, they basically run around. Either to drop by, or to meet the emperor by chance.
Today the emperor didn't go hunting, he just looked at the scenery everywhere, and the concubines flocked to touch them, scattered in all directions, looking for a place that he thought was suitable for encountering. It would be the best if he could be called by the emperor to accompany him after meeting the emperor.
Concubine Shen Gui, who is a pregnant woman, naturally would not participate.
She yawned after breakfast and huddled in the tent to play with the cat and the mink.
The empress is not in the camp today, and I heard that she is taking some wives around to look at the scenery. But of course the men went to places close to the woods, where prey might emerge at any time, while the wives walked and chatted in a safe area.
The empress who was entangled by the wives had no time to greet Concubine Shen, and the concubine went to the camp to see no one, so she could only play with herself.
After a while, Que Ri suddenly came in to report the news.
"Your Majesty met Concubine Mi by chance." He said, "I am now accompanied by Concubine Mi."
Shen Yuqing asked strangely: "Concubine Mi? No way?"
Didn't you have the attitude of seeing through the emperor's face yesterday and not serving him in the future, why did you take the initiative to bump into him today
"It was Mi Concubine who took the initiative to join her, so it's not easy for His Majesty to refuse." Que Ri added.
The other concubines might be dismissed by the emperor, but Concubine Mi is not easy to deal with. After all, this is Princess Loulan, which is related to the issue of diplomatic relations between the two countries.
Even though Dayan and Lou Lan have already torn their skins apart, it's not easy to give Lou Lan face directly. After all, the relationship between Dayan and Lou Lan broke down, and it's just that the two sides know each other well and ignore each other, and it's not that they have started fighting each other.
Therefore, in order to show his tolerance in front of his officials, the emperor had to treat Concubine Mi better.
In the eyes of those chattering civil servants, Concubine Mi is a woman, and her relationship with Loulan Dayan should have nothing to do with it, and she shouldn't use these things to anger a weak woman.
In this way, Concubine Mi managed to get close.
Shen Yuqing's intuition is wrong, what does Concubine Mi want to do
"You have someone to watch carefully." She ordered, "If there is any change, come and tell me immediately."
Que Ri nodded quickly: "Yes, empress, don't worry."
Man Xing was a little confused: "What's the matter?"
She also listened to the whole process yesterday, thinking that Concubine Mi had put it down, but it seems that she didn't come out? Could it be that even though she knew the true face of the emperor, she was still so in love with her that she still wanted to give the emperor a chance to save her
If this is the case, Man Xing wants to swear.
Women still need to love themselves more, and don't always give their hearts to men to be trampled on. There are so many good men in the world, if not, there are so many good women, cherish your own, there is no grass anywhere in the world.
Shen Yuqing shook her head, denying her guess.
"I'm afraid that she wants to die."
The relationship that has been paid for so long for no reason, is it to be broken at any time? If you can't let go, it doesn't necessarily mean that you have always loved that scum, but it may also be—
Love breeds hate.
Concubine Mi obviously hated the emperor's Baoliang, but Shen Yuqing didn't see her being so paranoid before. She thought that Concubine Mi would be weary of the world if she saw through it, but she didn't think that Concubine Mi would simply die with the emperor because of love and hatred.
However, it now appears that the latter is more likely.
"No, no way?" Man Xing was stunned.
Either love or hate, so crazy
She had heard of some things in the harem of the former dynasty and the harem of the first emperor before, and some women in it would do crazy things out of love and hatred. But those are too far away from Manxing, and she has never seen them with her own eyes.
Compared with Fu Yanjun's harem, it is much more peaceful. She has always thought that everyone is playing tricks and framing at most. As for other tricks, she really hasn't thought about it.
Shen Yuqing also hoped that she was thinking too much, otherwise it would be a pity. Concubine Mi would definitely not be able to successfully kill the emperor, but she would risk her own life instead, the gain outweighs the loss.
Fortunately, until the lunch hour, there was no news of anything wrong.
Shen Yuqing breathed a sigh of relief, she might have thought too much.
"Your Majesty, pass on the food?" Man Xing asked.
Shen Yuqing was just about to tell a story, but suddenly remembered something, and asked, "Where is Your Majesty now?"
"Your Majesty is naturally eating in the imperial tent."
"With whom?" Shen Yuqing frowned.
Man Xing didn't know what she was asking this for, but she still answered seriously: "I'm with Concubine Mi."
"What about the adults?"
"The adults are separated."
Shen Yuqing's heart skipped a beat. Without other people, wouldn't it be more convenient for Concubine Mi to do it? At least Concubine Mi would think so. Concubine Mi didn't know that the palace people around the emperor were all skilled in martial arts.
"No more meals." Shen Yuqing got up quickly, "Go to the imperial tent, I want to have a meal with His Majesty."
Man Xing froze for a moment, then nodded quickly: "Yes."
