Abandoned Concubine's Promotion

Chapter 278
In Qifeng Palace, the Queen's eyes were fixed on Concubine Xian's face all the time. At this time, Concubine Xian was still in the posture of saluting. Although the palace was not too hot, fine beads of sweat still appeared on her forehead.

"Get up." After a long time, the queen finally spoke, and Concubine Xian stood up straight after she responded. Because she had been squatting for a long time, when she got up, Concubine Xian staggered a little.

Linglong stood beside her and reached out to support her. Concubine Xian shook her head at her, signaling her to let go of herself.

After hesitating for a while, Linglong finally let go of her hand. She lowered her head and stood beside Concubine Xian, waiting with her for the queen to speak again.

"How is the second prince?" When she spoke again, the queen asked about the situation of the second prince. Concubine Xian couldn't help being on guard, but she had no choice but to answer the queen's question.

"Reporting to the empress, with the careful treatment of the imperial physician, the second prince's health has improved a lot now. The imperial physician specially instructed that he should try not to torment, so the concubine never brought him here to show the empress."

After listening to Concubine Xian's words, the queen's lips curled up into a smile. How could she not understand Concubine Xian's little thoughts, but she just didn't want to expose it just like that.

"If it's still cold today, don't worry about it. If I miss the second prince, I will naturally visit Yongchun Palace."

"Thank you, empress empress, for your compassion." Seeing that the empress did not let her bring the second prince, Concubine Xian couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief.

Concubine Xian's reaction was all seen by the queen, her eyes flashed cold, but her face still had the usual smile, "I heard you went to Jingyuexuan?"

Hearing what the queen said, Concubine Xian couldn't help being startled, but she quickly regained her composure. She didn't expect to keep this matter from the queen. Besides, what she said that day was not disrespectful to the queen.

Not only that, but she is still speaking for the queen, so she is not worried.

"Returning to the empress, the concubine has indeed been to Jingyuexuan. Jin Jieyu is the cousin of the empress, and the concubine is also a member of the empress, so the concubine and Jin Jieyu are on the same boat. After learning that she is not in a good condition, The concubine is bound to be a little worried."

Opening her mouth to respond to the Queen's words, Concubine Xian had a slight smile on her face, and her tone was very respectful. The Queen looked at her at this time, and the coldness in her eyes was even stronger.

"Concubine Xian is like this, which really makes me very upset. Don't worry, as long as you follow me well, I will naturally not treat you badly."

"Thank you, empress." After hearing what the empress had said, Concubine Xian turned to her again, but in her heart, she was always on guard.

As if seeing Concubine Xian's thoughts, the queen smiled and chatted casually with her, but she never let Concubine Xian sit down.

"Okay, I'm a little tired, you can go back too, although it's cold today, it's not suitable to torment the second prince, but the weather will soon warm up, when the time comes, you can bring the second prince here, so that I can get close to him .”

After finishing speaking, the queen stood up without giving Concubine Xian any chance to react, and walked towards the apse holding Yingluo's hand. Concubine Xian looked at her back and wanted to say something, but the queen had already left .

Standing in the hall, Concubine Xian's face became a little ugly, Linglong saw that her reaction was not right, she quickly reached out to support her, "Master, go back."

No matter how you say it, you are now in Qifeng Palace, no matter what your master's mood is at this moment, you shouldn't show it here.

When she came back to her senses, Concubine Xian responded, and she glanced again in the direction where the queen was leaving, and then left holding Linglong's hand.

After leaving Qifeng Palace, Concubine Xian sat on the sedan chair and ordered the powerful eunuchs to return to Yongchun Palace. When they returned to Yongchun Palace, Concubine Xian suddenly shook off the hand supporting Linglong and strode towards the second prince. Go to the side hall where you are.

"Your Majesty, what's the matter with you?" Concubine Xian suddenly said this, Linglong couldn't help being startled, she hurriedly followed Concubine Xian, and headed towards the side hall.

Entering the side hall, Concubine Xian saw the second prince who was sleeping at a glance. She subconsciously stepped forward, wanting to hug the second prince.

"Your Majesty, you just came in from outside the palace, and you are very cold, but you must not hug the Second Prince!" Seeing Concubine Xian's intention, Linglong quickly reached out her hand, and grabbed Concubine Xian who was about to hug the Second Prince .

Hearing Linglong's voice, Concubine Xian was taken aback for a moment, and then stopped moving. She looked at the second prince again, her eyes full of horror.

"You all step back." She ordered the people in the hall, and after everyone left, Linglong began to persuade Concubine Xian.

"Empress, don't think too much, the second prince will surely grow up safely by your side." Seeing Concubine Xian's reaction, Linglong knew that she must have been frightened by the queen.

"Linglong, I am very worried. If the empress insists on keeping the second prince by her side in the future, what should I do?"

Turning her head to look at Linglong, Concubine Xian's eyes were still terrified, thinking that the second prince would be snatched away by the queen, she felt very uncomfortable.

"No, empress, definitely not. Even if empress empress has this idea, she may not be able to realize it." Regarding the matter of the second prince, Linglong is far more sober than Concubine Xian, after all, the authorities are obsessed.

"Now that you have become a second-rank concubine, you have long been qualified to raise children by yourself. Even if you are a queen, you cannot easily take the second prince away from you."

"As long as the empress acts cautiously and does not do anything out of line, the empress will not be able to catch your fault. In this case, even if she wants to make excuses, she will not be able to find any excuses."

Hearing what Linglong said, Concubine Xian nodded, and the panic in her eyes faded a little.

"Actually, you don't have to be too nervous. The servant feels that the empress will say this today, but it's just to beat and pinch you. You have been to Jingyuexuan before, and the empress must be worried. You will join hands with Jin Jieyu and go together. deal with her."

Seeing that the master seemed to be in a better mood, Linglong spoke again. She was also in the main hall before, and she could hear every word the queen said.

"You're right, the empress might just be warning me instead of taking the second prince away, but if I don't listen to her warning, surely she will think of a way?"

The mood became more and more stable, Concubine Xian was finally able to think about things by herself, she frowned slightly as she pondered over what the Empress said today.

"You don't have to worry about this, empress. You didn't intend to deal with the empress empress. Going to Jinjieyu is just like what you said, because you care about her. Besides, you have spoken for the empress empress. Even if the empress empress checks There will be no evidence against you."

Seeing her master's mood gradually returning to normal, Linglong finally felt relieved, she smiled and continued talking to Concubine Xian.

"You're right. Even if the queen wanted to check, she couldn't find anything. The vowel is not a fool. She must know what to say and what not to say..."
