The full-level skillful wear becomes the control group

Chapter 770 Retreat as Advance (Part [-])
When the rumors pointed to Concubine De, the Empress Dowager took action to deal with those gossiping palace servants.

She has already confirmed that the other party is here for Concubine De, and Xiang'er is just getting involved.Concubine De was pregnant after all, and the Empress Dowager didn't want her to be frightened, so all the gossiping palace servants were sent to the Punishment Department.

It's just that the Empress Dowager made a quick move here, so she missed the people around Concubine De.

It was her confidant, the eldest court lady Bixia, who was speaking rumors with Concubine De.Bixia was the personal maid brought in by Concubine De when she first entered the palace. Compared with the maids assigned to her by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, she naturally believed in the confidants who had been with her for many years.

Bixia looked worried, "This must be someone deliberately trying to frame the master."

Concubine De's eyes were red, "Before this child was born, some people thought he was an eyesore. If it was born, there would be so many open and secret attacks. Tell me, who did it?" Her Hold Bixia tightly.

Bixia's hands ached from being caught, she tried her best to hold back, and said: "This harem seems to be peaceful, but people's hearts are far away, and no one knows what schemes they are thinking in private. Master, you are now the most beautiful woman besides the empress." A person of good looks. After giving birth to a dragon son, she will definitely become a noble concubine. At that time, even Li Guifei will not be able to compare with you. I don’t know how many people in this palace are jealous of you."

There is still a difference between a concubine with children and a concubine without children.

Concubine De also felt the same reason, and said: "I'm afraid they all want to pull me down from this position."

Especially during this period of time, there are too many people admiring her. Even De Concubine has to admit that she is no longer as gentle and submissive as before. After experiencing the change of status, she has long been unable to go back. .

"Could it be a low-ranking concubine? Could it be Xie Yunzi? I've humiliated her so badly before, will she send white jade Guanyin to curry favor with me publicly, but secretly think of plotting against me?"

A prostitute like Xie Yunzi must be very good at intrigue.

Bixia whispered, "It is also possible that it is Concubine Li and Empress Empress. Concubine Li was previously the No. The biological mother was born as a court lady, and she provoked rejection from above, and the second prince was adopted out at birth. His existence cannot threaten the eldest prince, but you are different. The son of a noble concubine is only a little worse than a legitimate son. "

Concubine De couldn't help biting her lower lip tightly, her eyes were red with hatred, she just felt that the beauties in the harem were all femme fatales.

She must not let these people get what they want!

"And the eldest princess... I have never seen any eldest princess who lives in the palace all day long. Doesn't it mean that she doesn't have her own princess mansion? She is sick, what does it matter to me?"

Concubine De couldn't help but vent her anger on Eldest Princess Rong Xiang.

Even if she is a princess, so what, a divorced princess shouldn't live in the palace all the time.She has a future prince in her belly, maybe even a future emperor.

The emperor and the empress dowager were too pampering her, and this time it was because of her that the matter affected her.

Concubine De's face was full of anger, "Come on, let's go see the emperor."

Her grievances must be known to the emperor!Moreover, the emperor must investigate this matter, lest her child be blamed before anything happened.

……

Concubine De is pregnant now, she wants to see the emperor, the emperor will naturally not refuse.Concubine De who appeared in front of him had makeup that was so pale that it was almost invisible, and she was crying like pear blossoms and rain, "Your Majesty, if it is true that the child in my womb hinders the eldest princess, my concubine is willing to take the child to the temple to pay for it." The eldest princess prays."

Concubine De said this, naturally not to go to the temple to live a life of poverty, but simply to retreat and let the emperor take action to seek justice for her.Her body is precious now, neither the emperor nor the queen mother can let her stay in the temple and live a hard life.

The emperor frowned, he couldn't hide what happened in the palace these days.After taking the medicine given by Yueling, the elder sister's body is no longer affected, so it can be seen that the so-called mutual restraint rumors are just nonsense.He has also used the manpower in the palace to investigate this matter these few days, but he did not expect Concubine De to run in front of him.

Rong Ji said: "Don't cry, what does this matter have to do with you? Didn't I give an order not to make you sad with such troublesome things?"

His eyes fell on the palace servants who were serving by Concubine De's side. Those palace servants were swept away by his sharp eyes, and suddenly their legs felt weak, and they knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

Those who came here with Concubine De are all her confidants, Concubine De said hastily: "They also care about me, and they don't want to see me being kept in the dark..."

Rong Ji's voice was serious, "You are pregnant now, if you are so angry by the news, can they afford it? They are really good to you, so they shouldn't let you know about it."

"I think they did it on purpose!"

The Empress Dowager immediately stopped the rumors, but the words still reached Concubine De's ears, which showed that someone was deliberately trying to let Concubine De know.

After hearing this, Concubine De felt a dull pain in her lower abdomen. She subconsciously looked at Bixia—could it be that Bixia betrayed her?But Bixia has been by her side for many years, and her younger sister has even become her younger brother's concubine.Bixia shouldn't betray her?
Maybe Bixia didn't think of this?
Rong Ji followed her line of sight, guessed one or two, and said in a deep voice: "Send this court lady to the Department of Punishment."

The blood on Bixia's face faded, she looked at Concubine De pleadingly.

Concubine De was about to intercede, Rong Ji said: "There's no need to get angry because of her. If she is really innocent, I will make up for her when the time comes and let her go back to your side."

After hearing this, Concubine De thought that the emperor was always kind, and although Bixia would inevitably suffer a little when she went to the Punishment Department, it should not be too serious.She was really careless this time, if something happened to the baby in her womb, ten lives would not be enough for her, so she should pay for her recklessness.

So she stopped pleading.

Rong Ji said: "Sister Huang's body has nothing to do with you, so you don't have to be nervous. I will definitely give you an explanation for this matter. The queen mother also knows that you have been wronged, so you take good care of yourself in the palace, and I will let Nanny Gu Come to watch over you."

Concubine De's heart hanging in mid-air finally returned to its original place, she was afraid that the emperor and queen mother would take their anger out on her child.As long as they believed that she was a victim, they would definitely protect her and compensate her.Gu Nai is the emperor's person, and she is loyal to the emperor. With her, her baby will be able to be born safely.

She said trustingly: "The concubine can only rely on the emperor."

……

After some interrogation by the Punishment Department and the use of hidden guards, the preliminary results have come out.

The few palace people who spread the rumors in the palace once received ten taels of gold as a reward, and the gold was given to them by the palace people of Yanchun Palace.

The court lady Bixia next to Concubine De died half a month ago due to a miscarriage. It is said that it was because of the turmoil in the back house. Bixia's family also left the capital without a trace.

Someone once saw Xie's family meet with the mage enshrined by the Queen Mother, and found a bank note in their house, which indeed had the Xie family's seal on it.It's just that the mage kept saying that the Xie family only asked them to speak well of Concubine Xie in front of the Queen Mother, and never bribed them to do other things.They didn't deliberately discredit Concubine De, what they said was the result of their divination.

All the clues point to Xie Yunzi who has been keeping herself safe in the palace.
