Comprehensive film and television: The cool life of the female supporting role after the cross-dress
Chapter 105 Ye Bingshang15
When Ye Bingshang rushed to Qingliang Palace, she saw Zhen Huan was already being questioned, and felt like she was a fellow sufferer.
She vaguely felt that being associated with Zhen Huan would bring bad luck. The original owner fell into the water and had a fake pregnancy. Was it because she was too close to Zhen Huan?
The more I think about it, the more that seems to be the case. During the years when Zhen Huan left the palace, the original owner was fine. But as soon as Zhen Huan came back, the original owner went crazy and insisted on giving birth to a bastard, and finally died of dystocia.
Thinking of this, Ye Bingshang's eyes darkened. Zhen Huan would never be so happy in this life. She wanted to see what Zhen Huan and Wen Shichu could achieve without Shen Meizhuang's protection and support.
"Only the people from the palace of Wan Guiren went to receive it. No one else?"
Yinzhen tapped the table heavily with his index finger twice. His tone was still as calm and steady as the day Ye Bingshang first came here, but there was a little more impatience in his eyes.
"Yes."
After receiving a positive answer, Yinzhen took a deep breath and said, "That doesn't prove that it was Concubine Wan who did it, and it has nothing to do with Concubine Lan."
Upon hearing this, Concubine Hua coughed twice in an artificial manner, and two palace maids came out immediately, claiming that they had seen with their own eyes that on the Chinese Valentine's Day, Ye Bingshang and Zhen Huan avoided the palace servants and headed towards the Qingliang Palace, accompanied by Jin Xi and Cai Yue.
This is another frame-up with complete evidence and witnesses. Ye Bingshang is full of questions. Who poisoned someone so that the master and servants went together in a group? Who is the smart one?
On the night of the seventh lunar month, Zhen Huan and Ye Bingshang went to the Tonghua Terrace and indeed did not run into anyone else, so naturally they could not provide any witnesses. However, everyone in the palace knew that they were close friends, so not only could they not serve as witnesses, but Concubine Hua also accused them of being the ones who did it together.
Zhen Huan looked at Ye Bingshang with some embarrassment, then turned to look at Yinzhen with a pitiful and innocent face.
Ye Bingshang frowned. Shen Meizhuang had no memory of this incident. She didn't know whether the change was caused by Ye Bingshang, or Zhen Huan had a way to get through it safely.
As they pondered, Concubine Hua suddenly screamed in a delicate voice: "Princess Lan, Concubine Wan, you are so cruel!"
Without giving them a chance to argue, Concubine Cao immediately half-knelt down and said, "Perhaps my words and actions were inappropriate, and I accidentally offended Concubine Lan and Concubine Wan. But the last time I was in the Qinzheng Store and invited to the banquet, I really didn't mean it."
"If Lady Lan and Lady Wan blame me for this, just beat and scold me, and don't hurt my Wen Yi."
Ye Bingshang's eyes flickered, thinking that it was amazing. She and Zhen Huan did have a deep grudge against Concubine Hua, so there was every reason for her to take revenge on Concubine Hua. It was not impossible for Concubine Hua to take advantage of Wen Yi's increasing favor and attack her.
Yinzhen supported his temple with one hand, and he could no longer hide the impatience on his face. He knew in his heart that this was another plot by Concubine Hua, and he did not want to punish Ye Bingshang and Zhen Huan at all, but Concubine Hua and Concubine Cao would not give in.
Although Zhen Huan was eloquent, she was still like Ye Bingshang, without evidence, she had no way to defend herself.
Ye Bingshang suddenly had an idea and coughed a few times very weakly, "Ahem, Your Majesty, that day, I and Concubine Wan accidentally walked to the Tonghua Terrace and saw a flower called Chaoyan. I picked a few and brought them back."
Yinzhen met Ye Bingshang's eyes, and worried that Ye Bingshang had not recovered yet, he immediately said: "I remember that you put the hairpin on An Yingying's head that day."
"Yes, Your Majesty has a good memory." Flattery never wears out. Ye Bingshang just hopes that Yinzhen still remembers what the flower looks like.
"I have only seen that flower in Tonghua Terrace. How about Your Majesty ask someone to check whether there are such flowers around Qingliang Palace? If not, it can prove that I and Concubine Wan have never been to Qingliang Palace."
"Su Peisheng, go check." After a pause, he added, "Please promise to go and check if it is the morning glory flower from that day."
The waiting time was extremely long. Yinzhen bent his fingers and tapped the table top one by one, making a regular "tapping" sound. It was very light, but it sounded like some kind of funeral sound, striking at the nerves of those involved.
It was midsummer, but Ye Bingshang felt a chill on her back. Here she was again, the fear of having to wait for her fate. Ye Bingshang hated this feeling of being powerless.
Zhen Huan and Concubine Hua were not at ease either. The former had beads of sweat on her forehead, and the latter looked irritated and anxious. The one who looked the most relaxed was Concubine Hua's lackey, Guiren Cao.
"Your Majesty, I have paid my respects and promised to go to Tonghua Terrace to see it. It is the morning glory flower that Concubine Lan brought back on the Qixi Festival. This flower can only be found in Tonghua Terrace."
Ye Bingshang and Zhen Huan both breathed a sigh of relief. Yinzhen comforted them with a few words and left at the same time as the Queen. Concubine Hua did not receive any punishment and even glared at them with a proud look.
As soon as she left Qingliang Palace, Zhen Huan looked downcast and said to Ye Bingshang aggrievedly, "Thanks to Sister Mei and Lingrong, otherwise I would not be able to clear myself of suspicion."
Ye Bingshang shook her head and held the handkerchief in her right hand. "Today's incident was purely a fluke. I just felt that there were few flowers of the morning glory in the palace that day, so I picked a few and brought them back. If it were..."
Zhen Huan tugged at her sleeve, motioning her to look to the side. It turned out to be Concubine Duan who was recuperating from illness.
The two stopped talking in time and bowed to Concubine Duan, "Greetings, Concubine Duan."
"Ahem." Concubine Duan coughed before she spoke and raised her hand weakly, "Princess Lan, Concubine Wan, please stand up quickly."
They had no friendship with Concubine Duan, and today was only the second time they met her. They could only express their condolences and concern about Concubine Duan's condition with a few polite words.
Concubine Duan seemed to be very ill, but she still forced herself to chat with them. She kept staring at Zhen Huan while talking, which made Zhen Huan feel a little uncomfortable. She found a reason and left.
Concubine Duan stared at Zhen Huan's departing back reluctantly, and said in a sad tone, as if she was expressing regret, "I didn't expect that they could escape unscathed on their own. What a pity."
"My lady, there is always a chance."
Concubine Duan smiled sadly, "Yes, as long as Concubine Hua is here, they will never be at peace. I will always have a chance to do her a favor."
……
Ye Bingshang personally made lotus root powder and osmanthus cake and gave one portion to Zhen Huan and An Lingrong. To be precise, it was the ghost of Shen Meizhuang, who was parasitic in the love thread, that came out for a while and made this cake.
Shen Meizhuang came out for two reasons. One was to praise Ye Bingshang for doing a good job. If she did it alone, she would not be able to protect Zhen Huan. The other was to tell Ye Bingshang that the love was gradually fading away.
Ye Bingshang was so frightened that she almost dropped the cake in her hand. She hurriedly used her spiritual sense to ask Shen Meizhuang, "Why did it disappear when it was fine?"
"Don't worry, I can feel that it is dissipating slowly, maybe because it doesn't belong here after all."
"I see. Thank you for letting me know."
Ye Bingshang covered her heart in panic. Only with love could she gain a little favor from Yinzhen and reduce the hostility of other concubines in the palace towards her.
If she didn't have love, how would she cope with the situation in this palace? Would she have to please the Queen Mother like Shen Meizhuang, help Zhen Huan, and die in this deep palace?
Not to mention Ye Bingshang's rejection of Zhen Huan, even though Zhen Huan has a good relationship with Shen Meizhuang, she is not a reliable person.
Because of emotional hurt and a little bit of self-esteem, he left his newborn daughter and his family in exile in Ningguta and insisted on leaving the palace, not to mention taking her into consideration.
No, absolutely not, she can no longer pin her hopes on others. She must leave a place in Yinzhen's heart as soon as possible before the love fades away, and gain a firm foothold in the palace.
The only person you can rely on in the world is herself. Ye Bingshang, you can only rely on yourself.
Anxiety filled Ye Bingshang's mind, and she didn't even realize that she was curled up in the corner of the couch by the window. Pastries were scattered all over the floor, but no palace servants came to clean them up.
Suddenly, someone reached out from the side and held her in his arms, "Mei'er, what happened?"
