Crazy Queen, Striving to Become the Most Beautiful Lady in the Harem
Chapter 384: Secret Talk at Midnight
Autumn has arrived
The Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet will be held in a few days. During these days, the harem is relatively peaceful.
Due to the busy affairs of the previous dynasty, Xie Yu rarely entered the harem.
Since Xie Yu did not enter the harem, the concubines naturally had nothing to fight for.
The Queen Mother stayed in Ci'an Palace, and summoned Lin Junxue to visit her every now and then. The two seemed to be trying to repair their relationship.
The Queen Mother did a good job on the surface, but Queen Lin Junxue did even better than her.
She visited the Empress every morning and evening, rain or shine, and never missed a day. Everyone in the court and the harem praised the Empress for her virtuousness.
Ever since Sun Qing took the initiative to go to Taiwu Palace to deliver soup a few days ago and was ignored, he stopped making trouble and became more obedient.
Sun Manrou turned back into the arrogant and domineering concubine
Zhuxi went to Zhonghe Palace every night, but disappeared in the morning.
He was a Buddhist, and no one dared to disturb him except on the first and fifteenth day of every month when the empress dowager brought the concubines to pray for blessings.
A few days ago
Xie Yu summoned Zhuxi to the emperor for an audience and just talked about some Buddhist principles as usual, and Zhuxi then left.
Zhang Yuyan's baby is already over three months old and looks very stable.
Her belly was beginning to take shape, and in a few days, she might not be able to hide it anymore.
After Zhang Yuyan and Lin Junxue discussed it, they found some time and went to Taiwu Palace.
in the afternoon
The news that Zhang Yuyan was more than three months pregnant spread throughout the harem.
The concubines had not expected that Zhang Yuyan had been pregnant for more than three months and had been keeping it a secret. Now that the fetus seemed stable, they told the truth.
After Chen Mi heard the news, he just paused.
Huipin was able to hide her pregnancy for more than three months before revealing it on her own initiative. She must have been protected by the Empress.
Otherwise, it would have been impossible to keep it secret for so long. Concubine Hui is so lucky.
At night
The Empress Dowager, Chen Mi, Sun Manrou and other concubines all sent gifts to Jinghe Palace.
Xie Yu was even more delighted. With a wave of his hand, rewards flowed into Jinghe Palace.
That night
Xie Yu, who had not been to the harem for a long time, went to Zhang Yuyan's Jinghe Palace and sat for a while.
His words hinted to Zhang Yuyan that as long as she gave birth to the baby safely, she would be made a concubine.
After Xie Yu left, he went to Zhonghe Palace
When the concubines saw that Xie Yu had finally entered the harem, they all expected him to come to their own palaces. In the end, Xie Yu went to Zhonghe Palace.
Zhonghe Palace
Lin Junxue smiled and stood up to greet
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you."
Xie Yu said, "Get up. I went to Jinghe Palace today. Concubine Hui is pregnant. I am very pleased."
Lin Junxue personally served tea and smiled
"Today, I learned that Concubine Hui is pregnant. I am very happy. Concubine Hui is a blessed woman. This baby is very healthy. As long as she is well taken care of, she will surely give birth to a prince or princess soon and add more children to the royal family."
Xie Yu took the tea and took Lin Junxue's hand
"I have been very busy lately and cannot get away from government affairs. Huipin and Jun'er are good friends. Please take care of her during her pregnancy."
Lin Junxue sat down and said softly, "Your Majesty, rest assured. I will take good care of Huipin. It is not easy to have children in the harem. Huipin's pregnancy is a big deal. I will pay great attention to it."
Xie Yu looked at Lin Junxue with satisfaction, seeing her beautiful face.
After not entering the harem for such a long time, it is inevitable that I feel a little distracted.
Lin Junxue saw what he meant
"Your Majesty, the court has been busy these days, you must take care of yourself. It's late today, would you like to stay overnight? I'll have someone prepare some water for you."
Xie Yu thought about the government affairs that had not yet been dealt with, put away his previous thoughts, and became much colder. He shook his head
"No, I still have some government affairs to deal with, so I won't let you stay overnight. You should have a good rest. I will come to see you in two days."
Lin Junxue agreed with a smile and sent Xie Yu to the palace gate.
After watching his dragon chariot go away, he turned around and returned to the bedroom.
Just closed the door
Zhuxi came up
Lin Junxue asked, "Xie Yu, what are you busy with recently?"
Just now, Xie Yu's expression clearly showed that he was worried about government affairs.
But the previous dynasty has been dealing with trivial political affairs recently, and nothing major has happened.
Therefore, maybe there is something going on behind the scenes that is why Xie Yu is so worried.
Zhuxi nodded, his black eyes sparkling with starlight, the candlelight reflected on his angular profile.
Lin Junxue looked over.
Zhuxi is beautiful, the kind that you never get tired of looking at.
"Xie Yu suspected that when Xie Wenqing jumped off the cliff, it was the Sun family who saved him. He doubted the Sun family's loyalty, so he sent his secret guards to the southwest to investigate the Sun family. Two days ago, the secret guards returned to the palace and brought back a lot of news about the Sun family. Xie Yu, I'm afraid you will have to take action against the Sun family soon."
Lin Junxue turned her head, her black eyes slightly raised, with a hint of coldness in her eyes.
Zhuxi really knows everything
More importantly, if Xie Yu were to make any move against the Sun family, it would inevitably involve the two sisters Sun Manrou and Sun Qing in the harem.
for a while
Lin Junxue said, "Back then, Xie Yu suspected that the Sun family was secretly supporting Xie Wenqing. After he ascended the throne, the Sun family sent Sun Manrou to the palace and made her the imperial concubine, which calmed Xie Yu's suspicion. However, after so many years, Xie Yu still doubted the loyalty of the Sun family. The Sun family holds military power and is stationed in the southwest. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are the local tyrants. Xie Yu has long been dissatisfied with the evil. This time, Xie Wenqing, who should have been dead, suddenly appeared in the southwest. With Xie Yu's suspicious character, how could he not doubt the Sun family again?"
Zhuxi listened to Lin Junxue's words quietly, with no change in expression.
Lin Junxue suddenly looked at Zhuxi's dark eyes, which seemed to be glowing with the night light of stars.
What role did Zhuxi play in the Sun family incident?
What is he asking for?
Zhuxi might have sent Xie Yu away for her sake, but not entirely for her sake.
Once the Sun family is dealt with, the military power in the southwest will inevitably fall into the hands of someone Xie Yu trusts.
Regardless of the Sun family, Sun Hua is indeed an outstanding general, otherwise he would not be able to ensure peace in the southwest for ten years.
However, because their achievements surpassed their master's, the Sun family and the Lin family were both thorns in Xie Yu's heart. Sooner or later, they would find an opportunity to be pulled out by Xie Yu.
So is Zhuxi's ultimate goal to get rid of the Sun family?
Lin Junxue's eyes were ambiguous, and she said slowly, "So, Zhuxi, you could have put Xie Wenqing anywhere, but you chose the Southwest Sun family. Did you do it on purpose or unintentionally?"
Zhuxi raised his eyes and looked directly into Lin Junxue's eyes, openly and calmly, like a bottomless pool of water that seemed to want to suck people in.
He was about to speak when Lin Junxue interrupted him.
"Forget it, I don't want to know. Whether you did it intentionally or not, it doesn't matter."
Zhuxi Meal
Sure enough, she was smart and figured everything out in an instant.
He couldn't hide it, and he never thought about hiding it, but he did it for her.
She wanted to stabilize the court and support the eldest prince Xie Wuji to ascend to the throne.
Then, he would pave a bright road for Xie Wuji, allowing him to ascend the throne without being threatened by military power.
Zhuxi said in a deep voice, "Anyway, I will never hurt you."
Lin Junxue stared at him, chuckled, and spoke slowly
"There are many people who want to harm me, but I promise that before anyone else harms me, I will kill that person first, without exception."
