I am cultivating myself in the palace

After the incident with Concubine Rong, Qingyan had no intention of going to appreciate any more ice orchids, but the empress was so kind, she didn't dare to refuse, so she had to follow along.

The ice room was built independently of the imperial garden, and looked like a huge and closed niche from the outside. The little eunuch next to him brought an unseasonable cloak, saying that the ice room was cold, and he was afraid that the cold would intrude on the body of the master.Qingyan and the others put them on as they said, and a servant opened the door to welcome them in.

As soon as the curtain was lifted, a gust of cold air rushed towards his face. Even though he was protected by a cloak, he still felt the chill. Qing Yan was caught off guard, and a breath of cold air entered his stomach. He only felt a cold pain in his waist and abdomen.At this time the queen had already entered the ice room, and Qing Yan quickly followed her in.

When I entered it, I saw that there was nothing wrong with it.The ice room is surrounded by huge ice cubes, forming a circle of ice walls. The top is semicircular, and it is made of light-transmitting water jade pieces. The sunlight can pass through the jade pieces, and the ice wall is refracted. bright.A circular ice table was built in the center of the room, and a cluster of emerald green plants was planted in the middle, but there were a few slender flower branches from the plant, and a small orchid flower that was transparent like ice crystals bloomed on the top, and the sunlight reflected on the flowers through the water jade. The end is crystal clear!Such a spectacle naturally aroused everyone's amazement.

Qingyan also found it miraculous, everyone watched and played in the ice room for a while, but Qingyan's stomach hurt more and more, and it gradually turned into ups and downs. Not daring to procrastinate, he quickly sued the queen, left the ice room and went straight to the official room!While running, she lamented that she really lost face to grandma's house by entering the palace this time!

When she finally relieved herself from the official room, she realized that the maid who brought her was gone, and Aunt Xu was waiting beside her, her face dark as hell.

Qingyan smiled embarrassedly: "Well, people have three urgencies. If I don't handle it well, won't I be even more rude when I meet the emperor later?"

She was so eloquent that Aunt Xu couldn't say anything, and Emperor Yin really came to announce their return. The Empress had already returned to the Qian Palace, and Aunt Xu came here specially to wait for Yue Qingyan.In this way, he led Yue Qingyan to Chengqian Palace in a hurry, passed a palace gate, and there was a circle of people on the palace road next to the guard gate - there were palace ladies and eunuchs, whispering and clear applause. Passing through the wall came faintly.

There were many lynchings in the palace, Aunt Xu was not surprised and walked over without looking sideways.Qingyan didn't want to meddle in other people's business at first, so she didn't want to take a casual glance, but saw the face of the woman who was kneeling on the ground and being slapped on the mouth through the gap in the human wall.

When he saw it, he was startled, he stopped quickly, and then took a closer look, it really wasn't her dazzled, the one who was pressed down and knelt on the ground by the eunuch was someone else, but the concubine Chen Guifei Shi Yunyue? !

Standing in front of her was a woman dressed as a maid of honor, holding a bamboo board in her hand and slapping Shi Yunyue's face non-stop. With the sound of slapping, Shi Yunyue's cheeks had already blushed, and she was extremely miserable.Not far away, a little palace lady was detained, with an anxious look on her face, presumably she was her personal maid.

Qingyan was extremely astonished, who is so bold to slap the imperial concubine? !

She couldn't help taking two steps forward, when someone pulled her sleeve suddenly, Aunt Xu warned in a low voice: "The Holy Majesty is still waiting, the princess should not meddle in other things."

This moment made her wake up instead, yes, this was six years ago, at this time Shi Yunyue was not a noble concubine, judging by her clothes, it was obvious that her status was not high.Qingyan didn't know Shi Yunyue well, she had only met Shi Yunyue a few times at the palace banquet, but she had a deep impression - at that time the empress had been abolished, she accompanied Emperor Yin as a noble concubine, and she was on the top of the jade steps, Gu Pan Shenfei is like a group of stars gathered together, her frown and smile are dazzling, and then she passed away suddenly, and the scene of Emperor Yin ordering the whole country to mourn is still vivid in my mind.However, who would have thought that Shi Yunyue would kneel beside the palace road seven years ago, slapping and humiliating her?

Aunt Xu was secretly urging her again.Qingyan hesitated for a moment - care?or not?

She didn't seem to have any necessary reason to intervene, Man said that they had no intersection, even if they met in the previous life, this is the harem, she is just the emperor's sister-in-law, interfering in the affairs of the harem would be overstepping.Thinking so, Qing Yan planned to leave.

However, as she got closer and closer, the murmurs of the court ladies drifted to her ears——

"Anyway, he is a noble person, yet he is kneeling here and being slapped by a court lady..."

"What do you know, and you don't even look at who she offended. The noble concubine Rong is the biological mother of the fourth prince. She is a little noble, but she dares to offend the concubine. She is just asking for trouble!"

"It's a pity to lose such a beautiful face. I'm afraid it will be destroyed if the hundred bamboo palms go down."

"No matter how beautiful it is, what's the use? There are no beauties in the harem. The key depends on whether you can get the grace..."

Concubine Rong again?Qingyan frowned, but the kung fu of the forefoot and the rear made such a fuss, this Concubine Rong seems to be a troublemaker, but I don't know how Shi Yunyue bumped into Concubine Rong's bad head.

The big maid was tired from the beating, she rolled up her sleeves to rest for a while, and asked arrogantly: "Master, what do you think? Our empress is kind, as long as you eat the bird's nest on the ground, the servant So I went back to the empress and gave you the rest of the bamboo palm, otherwise if you hit a hundred blows, you will suffer, and the slaves will suffer too, do you think it is reasonable?"

After hearing this, Qingyan noticed that a jade bowl was knocked over on the ground beside the maid's feet, and the bird's nest spilled all over the floor. Let Shi Yunyue lick it.

Qingyan frowned—to make people lick the dirt on the ground like a beast?It's too much to deceive people!

Sure enough, Shi Yunyue's personal court lady immediately became angry: "Xin Lan! My master is a nobleman granted by the emperor, how dare you humiliate me like this!"

"Yo, look at the words, how dare the servants, this is not all for the health and well-being of the nobles, isn't it?" Xin Lan turned her head pretentiously, and said in a strange voice: "Could it be that you are looking forward to your nobles Full of a hundred bamboo palms? Tsk tsk, what a cruel heart. Master, it’s not that slaves talk too much, so you don’t care about slaves, so you don’t mind.” Being provoked like this, the little maid naturally panicked and struggled around. , just want to go to protect Shi Yunyue: "Your honor, this is not the meaning of slaves! Xin Lan! You have the ability to hit me, I will be punished for our nobles!"

"Oh, what are you..." Xin Lan said contemptuously, "You can bear the bamboo palm of your concubine?"

"Xiao He." Shi Yunyue, who was kneeling on the ground, called softly, "I'm fine." She straightened her back and raised her head neither humble nor overbearing: "The concubine accidentally knocked over the fourth prince's bird's nest soup, The noble concubine wants to punish the concubine, but the concubine dare not disobey. Miss Xinlan's kindness is appreciated by the concubine, and I will surely repay her in the future." At the end of the words, there was a slight chill, which was really intimidating.

Xin Lan lost her momentum and felt extremely annoyed: "It's really shameful, that servant will be impolite!" As she said, she raised the bamboo board and slapped Shi Yunyue's face so hard The beating was crooked, and blood oozes from the corner of her mouth. Seeing that the bamboo board was about to slap Shi Yunyue's face again, a slender hand suddenly stretched out from the side, and firmly grasped her wrist holding the bamboo board, stopping The momentum of the bamboo board falling down.

"Who!" Xin Lan turned her head in surprise, only to see a woman in court clothes of a married woman standing prettyly behind her.

The person who made the move was naturally Yue Qingyan who could no longer be seen.
