C266 (2/2)
In February this year, Lord Ming Zhu was shot by the ministers. The officials called her a high-ranking official, she was a party seller, and Ku Xiu, the head of the imperial government, had accused her of eight great crimes, aiming to put the pearl to death. At that time, when the emperor was thinking about the achievements she had done in the past, he could not bear the heavy responsibility and had only stripped her of her position as a university scholar and made her a minister, while the other members of the imperial party, Yu Guozhu, Ke Kun and Fu Lun, were dismissed from their positions. This matter severely injured the position of the Na Lama Clan in the imperial court. Imperial Concubine Hui's family members repeatedly sent word to the palace, making the Imperial Concubine Hui have a good word with the Emperor.
The Imperial Concubine Hui had a calm personality and had no intention to get involved in the affairs of the imperial court. As the Imperial Concubine Hui and Rong'er were of similar age and had lived in the harem for more than twenty years, they trusted each other, so they chose to share the pain and suffering in their hearts with Rong'er, hoping that he would help her advise the Emperor. I also don't like the relationship between the later concubine and His Majesty. As a woman of the emperor, no one would listen to the rumors and Imperial Concubine Hui would agree to help, but she was worried that the young Yin Wei would cause trouble, as he and Ming Zhu's relationship did not get along well with one another. As a result, he had been sick for more than a month.
Fortunately, Yuan Yi still showed up in the palace. When Rong'er went to explore the Imperial Concubine Hui, the Imperial Concubine Wen also came to see her, and when they talked about Yuan Yi, they couldn't help but look down on her, after all, a Chinese was originally someone they didn't like, but now that they were favored by him, they felt that they were too scheming, and the Imperial Concubine De of Yonghe Palace had an expression of anticipation.
Yuan Yi had entered the Palace, but not a single person liked her. No one from the other palaces had befriended her, except for the Spirit of the Palace and Lu Song, who agreed to be friendly with her. For Yuan Yiren, what she experienced was perhaps not only loneliness. Lonely, and the hostility of others.
A month later, she was diagnosed to be pregnant, and Rong'er went to see her. Yuan Yi looked at Rong'er and said softly: ”Imperial Concubine Rong, if others admit to it, if others respect the Emperor, they will swear to the people that you have never thought of using schemes against the Emperor. Do you believe in me?”
Rong'er looked at her with a smile. ”This is the first time you've received such a gift.” ”If you are pregnant, come ask me if there is anything you don't understand. I will have the palace take care of you and take care of your pregnancy so that your child can be born healthy.”
”Imperial Concubine Rong?” Rong-er did not answer her question.
Rong'er laughed softly and said, ”Based on that phrase, it doesn't matter if you believe me or not. What matters is what you do yourself. ”Another thing, let me tell you, all the women who have children in this palace are considered lucky, so you must let them be born healthy.”
”Imperial Concubine Rong, after that night, I never saw the Emperor again. Now that I have a child, isn't it obvious that the Emperor won't come to see me?”
Looking at her, he felt his heart ache. ”You now understand why I said I don't know whether to congratulate you or not? ”It's not that a woman who becomes the Emperor will be doted upon by the Emperor, it's just that this is the palace.”
”I... It can't be that you won't be able to see the Emperor again, right? ” Yuan Yi's eyes became moist, ”If that's the case, then I might as well be a mere palace maid, and live to see the light of day. ”Meeting with the Emperor in the morning.”
”Esteemed wangfei, the empress dowager passed away in mourning for twenty-seven months, but the emperor doted on you in the middle and blamed himself as well. Take good care of yourself, I'll ask the emperor to come see you once I see the emperor.” Rong'er consoled him softly.
”Imperial Concubine Rong, I'm somewhat regretful now … ”Relying on myself doesn't require any wealth. I just want to be with the emperor for a long time …” Yuan Yi's tears fell. ”But from now on, it really seems like it'll be difficult for her to see the emperor again …”
Rong'er bent down. ”Don't worry too much, it might not be that bad. Perhaps you're important to the emperor, and the emperor will miss you. Carry your body, don't think too much about sad things.”
They thought that once she fell in love with that man and became that man's woman, she would leave him with the most important position in his heart. They were wrong, the relationship between women and men was not that simple. Thus, Rong'er knew very well that there wasn't a single person in the Emperor's heart who was like Yuan Yi …
