Concubine Fang's words made Concubine Xuan feel knotty in her heart.
Her family had suffered so much at the hands of Concubine De Gui's father, and she still dared to arrange it for herself. Who was she? She had only a face, and she was lucky enough to have given birth to the eldest son.
But think about yourself, she has a good family background, is not bad in appearance, is also a concubine now, and will have children in the future, can't he still get over her?
Thinking of this, her expression became cold and she said to the palace maid who was delivering the message, "Let them go back and tell them that I am taking a nap and will not see any guests."
"But they are outside, saying they want to catch up with the queen. Concubine De Gui sent several groups of people here. This time they are here in person. The queen is gone," the palace maid said worriedly.
Hearing this, Concubine Fang immediately stood up and looked at Concubine Xuan, "Sister, I'll go sit inside and you can meet her. If not, if she goes to the emperor and talks to him, the emperor should think you are ignorant. "
Concubine Xuan thought for a while, and could only nod, and asked someone to set up the screen, and then Concubine Fang went inside.
Concubine Lan came in first, followed by Jin Xin. Concubine Xuan could only stand up and salute. Jin Xin hurriedly stepped forward to hold Concubine Xuan's hand and said gently, "Sister, don't be so polite. I am here to apologize to you today."
Concubine Xuan stood up and sat back down with a calm expression.
"Concubine De's words have offended my concubine. Now the emperor favors you. He quarreled with the ministers over your concubine and tried his best to defend you. How can I dare to accept my queen's apology?"
Jin Xin was startled when she heard the words. Although Jin Xin was displeased with these harsh words, she understood her feelings.
"Sister, you won't forgive me."
"I don't dare. With my current status, I really don't need to apologize to my concubines. The emperor has already dealt with it and gave my brother an explanation. We in the Pei family don't dare to complain about this anymore." Concubine Xuan was cold and calm. hot.
"Axuan, your concubine came here specifically to apologize to you. Why are you so arrogant and armed with a gun and a stick?" Concubine Lan saw her cold face and her words that were so ruthless that she couldn't stand it. .
Ordinarily, this matter is not the fault of the imperial concubine. She asked for her dead and biological father to give an explanation to the Pei family. Externally, others despised her for being ruthless, and some even said that she was incompetent.
It is impossible to be considerate in life, but at least the imperial concubine is taking care of her relationship with Concubine Xuan.
Concubine Xuan still did this, and she felt a little uncomfortable for the concubine.
Concubine Lan's words made Concubine Xuan a little dissatisfied. She raised her head and said displeasedly, "Concubine Lan, if your only nephew is killed and your brother doesn't know the future, but the murderer can still live a carefree life, so can you. If you forgive so easily, then I think you are indeed great."
"What do you mean by this? Did the imperial concubine recommend your sister-in-law? Didn't the imperial concubine make amends?"
"These compensations are just to stop others' mouths. If it wasn't really upsetting, the matter would have been handled quietly."
After saying that, Concubine Xuan looked at Jin Xin, "Besides, I am incompetent. I can only rely on this matter to make the emperor feel guilty, so as to invite favors. I want to get pregnant in one fell swoop and become the first concubine. I am very ambitious, which gives the empress a headache." Bar."
After going back and forth, Jin Xin also knew Concubine Xuan's attitude. It was useless no matter how much she said.
Jin Xin immediately stood up and said with a smile, "No matter how you say it, what happened before was ultimately due to my failure to restrain my family. I have to apologize to you no matter what. Since my sister is in a bad mood, I won't bother you in the future. "
When Concubine Xuan heard this, her expression was a little unnatural. She was also a little anxious when she thought that Jin Xin was leaving like this. In her heart, she didn't want to be an enemy of Concubine De Gui, but she was dissatisfied with how she arranged for her.
Before going out, Jin Xin still looked at Concubine Xuan with a smile, "My sister often comes to Chengen Palace when she is free, so I will go back today."
With that said, he went out.
Seeing this, Concubine Lan glanced at Concubine Xuan and sighed, "Axuan, the emperor has also dealt with this matter. We must be extremely careful about everything we say and do in the palace. I think the concubine is not a bad person. If we can be on good terms with the concubine, , is it still possible? You should think clearly about it yourself."
With that said, Concubine Lan sighed and followed her out.
Concubine Xuan looked a little lost, debating whether to go out and stop people, but she couldn't save her dignity, so she could only sit back on the soft couch and sigh.
Fangbi listened to the noise and made sure that the person was gone, then she walked out.
"Sister Xuan Fei, what's wrong with you?" Concubine Fang stepped forward and held her hand.
"It's nothing. I just feel that this matter might be made out of a fuss." Concubine Xuan frowned.
"Why are you making a fuss out of a molehill? Don't you know that she has always been a hypocritical person? If you weren't from a noble family and your father and brother had contributed a lot, the emperor would have to give you some points in the harem in the future. She doesn't want you to go beyond her. Just continue to be used by her." Fangbi said helplessly.
When Concubine Xuan heard this, she felt it made some sense, but when she looked at the girl, she frowned again, "When you first entered the palace, you were the closest to her. She didn't feel sorry for you, right? Why are you like this?" Do you hate her so much?"
Fang Concubine let go of her hand, walked to the round stool and sat down with cold eyes, "You know the former Liu Concubine, right? My sister and the eldest princess drowned in the lake, and I just learned about it a few days ago. I know she killed my sister, so she took extra care of me. I hate myself for actually being grateful to her and calling her sister. I hate myself, so I don’t want you, sister, to be deceived by her."
As she said this, she stood up excitedly and clasped Concubine Xuan's hand, feeling very excited.
Concubine Xuan was frightened by her sudden confession. She immediately stepped back and looked at her uneasily, "Are you mistaken?"
What happened at that time was indeed quite a fuss, but the princess was adopted in the Queen's Palace. Liu Bin went crazy and carried the princess out. When she drowned, Concubine De was buried.
Now Concubine Fang says that Concubine De did this. Who dares to believe it?
"How could I be wrong? I'm sure. Sister, don't be deceived by her. If she didn't do it, why would she treat me so kindly? Aren't you ashamed?"
Concubine Xuan thought for a while and realized that this was right. However, Concubine Xuan finally felt that Fang Concubine was really very scheming. She had previously expressed a simple and innocent song in front of Concubine De Gui. Unexpectedly, secretly, Concubine Fang had already thought about it. Deal with her.
"You'd better go back first, I want to be alone." Concubine Xuan was a little resistant to Fang Bin, and she didn't want to have too much contact with her.
Concubine Fang knew what she was thinking, so she didn't panic. Instead, she smiled and said, "Sister, do you still want to make friends with Concubine De Gui? What happened today will definitely leave a thorn in her heart. She won't I treat you sincerely. Your current status only lacks a child. Why do you have to be inferior to others? You don’t have to be looked down upon. "
After Concubine Xuan was told this, she thought that her future would be good, and she felt that she no longer had to follow her lead.
As a mere imperial concubine, if she were pregnant, she would naturally be able to do it.
"You are right, why should I be inferior to others? My father and brother have made great achievements in war, so I should have a place in the harem."
