After killing four concubines, the queen was sentenced to death and reborn

For three consecutive days, Xiao Xuanchen summoned Zhao Baolin to sleep with him, which made many people jealous.

On this day, Zheng Xiyan took Xiao Chengji to Shoukang Palace to pay respects to the empress dowager. The empress dowager mentioned this matter, "I heard that the emperor has been very fond of the dancers brought back from the temporary palace recently."

"Yes!" Zheng Xiyan replied calmly.

The Queen Mother became even more dissatisfied with Zhao Baolin and said in a cold voice, "It has been a few days since you entered the palace, but you have not come to pay your respects to me. It is obvious that you are a man without manners."

"But how could a dancer understand the rules?" The Queen Mother's tone was full of contempt and prejudice towards Zhao Baolin.

Zheng Xiyan explained with a smile: "Mother! If you don't summon him, Zhao Baolin would not dare to come to Shoukang Palace."

"Okay! Then I will summon her today." The Queen Mother said in a deep voice.

At this time, Nanny Yu came in and said, "Empress Dowager, Zhao Baolin is outside asking to see you."

Zheng Xiyan was a little surprised and said with a smile: "What a coincidence, she came just when my mother mentioned her. Speak of the devil and he will appear. My mother, please go meet her."

"Okay, I'll listen to you." The Queen Mother said in a deep voice.

"Yes!"

Zhao Baolin walked into the hall alone. The Empress Dowager looked at her appearance carefully. She was as charming as a flower, wearing a gorgeous pink satin robe, and her skin was as white as snow. She was indeed a good-looking girl.

Zhao Baolin walked up to the two of them, knelt down and greeted them, "Your Majesty the Queen Mother, Your Majesty the Queen."

The Queen Mother said coldly: "Raise your head."

"Yes!" Zhao Baolin raised his head carefully, very cautiously, his whole body tense.

"The emperor has good taste indeed. She is indeed a beauty." The Empress Dowager snorted coldly.

Zhao Baolin replied tremblingly: "Thank you, Queen Mother, for your praise."

"A dancer, now becomes Baolin. I really underestimated you." The Queen Mother had a cold and intimidating face, which made people feel scared.

Zhao Baolin suddenly didn't know what to say, so he could only lower his head again, trembling and frightened.

Zheng Xiyan spoke carefully: "Mother, let Zhao Baolin get up first!"

The Queen Mother turned her head to look at her, and she also became dissatisfied with the Queen, "As the Empress, you must advise the Emperor more in the future not to take any lowly-born people into the harem."

Zhao Baolin knelt on the ground, feeling ashamed and lowering his head even more.

Zheng Xiyan's face looked a little bad, but now she could only agree, "Yes, I will obey your order."

"Get up!" the Queen Mother said coldly.

"Thank you, Queen Mother, Queen."

The Queen Mother continued, "Since you are so lucky to enter the palace and become the emperor's concubine, you must serve the emperor well in the future. If you dare to stir up trouble, I will never forgive you."

"Yes! I will keep the Queen's teachings in mind and will serve Your Majesty wholeheartedly." Zhao Baolin said hurriedly.

"Yihua Palace is very close to Shoukang Palace, just a few steps away. In the future, you should come to Shoukang Palace more often and help me copy Buddhist scriptures!" The Empress Dowager wanted to scold her, but she was even more worried about letting such a person serve the Emperor.

"By the way, can you read?"

Zhao Baolin replied respectfully: "I know a few words, and I will follow the Queen Mother's instructions."

Zheng Xiyan and Zhao Baolin left Shoukang Palace together, and the wet nurse followed them holding Xiao Chengji.

Zheng Xiyan couldn't stand Zhao Baolin's cautious look. "My mother is a little prejudiced against your background, but it's not against you. Don't take it to heart. Copying Buddhist scriptures for me is a grace that no one else can ask for. Do you understand?"

"I understand. I thank the Queen for her guidance. Your Majesty has been very kind to me and I will never forget it." Zhao Baolin was full of gratitude.

Zheng Xiyan smiled, seeing that she was very tactful, "My kindness to you is just to obey His Majesty's wishes. You don't need to thank me. The person you should thank the most is yourself. It is you who worked hard to make His Majesty take a fancy to you. Otherwise, even if I want to help you, it will be useless."

Zhao Baolin was deeply moved when she heard this. No one had ever said such words to her, let alone that this person was the Empress, the mother of the country.

Zhao Baolin stopped and knelt in front of her, "I am willing to serve the Queen to repay her kindness."

Zheng Xiyan stepped forward to help her up and said, "Get up quickly."

"Thank you, empress."

"I don't have much to ask of you, but since you are willing to do so, I will give you some advice in the future. However, it depends on yourself whether you are lucky or not." Zheng Xiyan said with a smile.

"Yes, thank you, Your Majesty." Zhao Baolin burst into tears of gratitude and felt greatly relieved.

"You are a smart person. I hope you won't disappoint me."

"Yes, I will do my best and follow your Majesty's lead." Zhao Baolin said firmly.

After Zhao Baolin left, Biluo stepped forward and asked, "My queen, can she really be used by you?"

"Who knows? It depends on her luck." Zheng Xiyan said in a deep voice.

"Yes!"

"Mother!" Xiao Chengji stretched out his little hand towards Zheng Xiyan, who quickly came over and hugged him in her arms, "Oh~ Mother's good son."

"Let's go, we're going back to the palace."

On the way back to Weiyang Palace, I passed by Jinhua Palace and heard Murong Yue yelling, "Your Majesty! I know I was wrong, I really know I was wrong, please return Changle to me, Your Majesty! I beg you."

Zheng Xiyan heard the noise and asked, "Does she often call like this these days?"

"I heard from the palace servants that it has been like this for the past few days." Biluo reported.

"She's really stupid. Jinhua Palace is so far away from Zichen Hall, how could His Majesty hear her? Even if she shouts at the top of her lungs, His Majesty won't come." Zheng Xiyan frowned. She really didn't expect that she would become like this now.

"Your Majesty is right, but will His Majesty really never see her again?" Biluo was a little worried. After all, Prime Minister Murong held a high position in the court. There was no guarantee that His Majesty would not spare Concubine Rong this time for the sake of the Prime Minister.

Zheng Xiyan cannot conclude at the moment. After all, Xiao Xuanchen is a man of deep thoughts and no one knows what he will do next.

"That may not be the case. No one can predict what will happen in the future."

"Yes!"

A few nights later, the eunuch from the Jingshifang came in with a green card, "Your Majesty!"

Xiao Xuanchen took a quick look and didn't see Zhao Baolin's green card, so he asked, "Where's Zhao Baolin's green card? Why can't I see hers?"

"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother ordered Zhao Baolin to copy Buddhist scriptures for three hours today. I'm afraid he can't sleep with you now."

"Why would the Queen Mother ask her to copy Buddhist scriptures for no reason?" Xiao Xuanchen frowned and said in a deep voice.

"The Queen Mother said that the Yihua Palace where Zhao Baolin lived was close to the Shoukang Palace. She heard that Zhao Baolin could read, so she asked her to help copy a few Buddhist scriptures. This was the Queen Mother's grace."
