Chapter 554
Qiao Cui still doesn't believe it, if this is the case, according to Concubine Qiu's temperament, the little maid should have died a hundred times, Qiao Cui walked to the bedroom with a puzzled expression, Yun Lanyue looked up He glanced at her, seeing her like this, a little confused.

"Qiao Cui..."

Qiao Cui came back to her senses, and asked in a startled voice, "What did you just say, Niang Niang?"

Yun Lanyue sighed: "I asked you what's wrong? You seem to have something on your mind."

Qiao Cui thought that the empress hadn't gone out for a long time, maybe talking about these gossips with her, the empress can go out for a walk and relax, which is good anyway.

"Your Majesty, there is something that I can't understand."

"What's going on."

"My servant just heard from Ji Shui that the emperor has been going to Concubine Qiu's place recently, but the purpose is not to see the imperial concubine, but because there is a new beautiful girl in the imperial concubine's palace. The servant thinks that if this is the case, the noble concubine The empress must have got rid of this little maid, after all, it is well known that the imperial concubine is jealous, how did the little palace maid survive in the hands of the imperial concubine?"

Yun Lanyue raised her eyebrows: "You said that the emperor has taken a fancy to the little maid next to Concubine Qiu?"

"Yes, I heard that the emperor often runs to the imperial concubine's palace recently. It must be to meet the little maid. How can a smart person like the imperial concubine fail to see what the emperor is thinking!"

Yun Lanyue sneered in her heart, this is indeed very suspicious, Concubine Qiu is a person who would feel uncomfortable even if the person she raised by herself is too favored, and in this harem, everyone knows what will happen if you provoke Concubine Qiu Ming, it's just the little maid beside her. Concubine Qiu has a hundred ways to make her die quietly in this palace, and the emperor will definitely not turn against Concubine Qiu just because of a little maid he likes, then The only possibility for the little court lady who was favored by the emperor to live well beside Concubine Qiu is that she herself is the person arranged by Concubine Qiu.

This kind of thing is not uncommon in the palace. In order to consolidate their position in the emperor's mind, many concubines will arrange several concubines with lower status than themselves to the emperor. When they are favored, they can be in the harem Doing things for them, of course, before promoting them, the concubines will definitely catch these concubines, so they have to be obedient.

Concubine Rui was trained by Concubine Qiu, but since Concubine Rui gave birth to the emperor's twins, she has been favored too much in the harem. Concubine Qiu seems to be a little dissatisfied with her. The palace greeted her well. During her confinement period, the masters of the other palaces all sent congratulatory gifts and supplements, but Concubine Qiu didn't send anything, and she didn't visit her once.

Concubine Qiu and Concubine Rui will fall out sooner or later, but in the end who wins depends on how deadly Concubine Qiu's handle on Concubine Rui is.

It's not that Yun Lanyue doesn't care about these things, but she's really tired recently, and she doesn't have any energy for no reason. She hasn't been out of the East Palace for a month.

Qiao Cui looked at her suspiciously: "Mother, why don't you speak?"

Yun Lanyue raised her eyes and smiled at her: "What did you say?"

"Didn't you just ask about the situation of the little maid?"

Yun Lanyue raised her eyebrows: "The emperor always sees one and loves the other, which is nothing unusual. Now in the harem, Concubine Xu and Concubine Rui are the most favored, and the emperor can't just hang around between them. It's also time for a new favorite to come out."

"But ma'am, it's uncertain whether she can live until then."

"Why can't I survive?" Yun Lanyue looked at her with a smile: "As you said, it was her original sin that the emperor fell in love with her. She couldn't survive a day in the hands of Concubine Qiu, but you said that the emperor recently fell in love with her." I have been visiting her all the time, which means that she is still alive and well. It is impossible for Concubine Qiu not to know about this matter. This means that the emperor can only see the little maid alive with the permission of Concubine Qiu. Whether or not the emperor knows that Concubine Qiu did it on purpose, but what is certain is that this little maid who managed to attract the attention of the emperor was personally arranged by Concubine Qiu, so of course she can live to the day when she becomes the new favourite."

Qiao Cui suddenly realized that she opened her eyes wide and nodded, looked at her with admiration and said: "Your Majesty is smart, the slaves have been thinking about it for a long time, but they just can't figure out what is going on. I can understand after listening, empress, this servant really admires you."

Yun Lanyue finally had a smile on her face: "You should stop being so talkative, I don't know when this mouth became so eloquent, and its mind is also much smarter."

After being praised by Yun Lanyue, Qiao Cui began to twitch: "Of course, the servants were trained by the empress alone. If they are too stupid, they will embarrass the empress."

Yun Lanyue shook her head and laughed, looked at the sunshine outside, got up and said: "I haven't gone out for a walk in a few days, Qiao Cui, you can accompany me to the plum garden."

"Your Majesty is going out." Qiao Cui wanted to jump up and celebrate on the spot, and hurriedly found a cloak to put on her: "My Lady, the flowers in the Plum Garden haven't bloomed yet, why don't I accompany you to the Royal Garden for a walk Bar."

"There are a lot of people in the Royal Garden, and I want to go to a quieter place. The flowers in the Plum Garden haven't bloomed yet, so it must be quiet there."

Qiao Cui nodded: "Alright then, servant girl, go and call Wei Shui."

"Ah."

Qiao Cui and Yan Shui accompanied Yun Lanyue to the Plum Garden. Many people saw her along the way. It probably won't be long before she, the princess who hasn't been out of the East Palace for a month, will become a court lady and concubine. It's a topic of leisure and boredom.

Yun Lanyue didn't care about these, and went directly to the plum garden. After walking for a while, she felt a little tired, so she didn't stop much, and went back the same way.

The shortest way to the Meiyuan Garden and back to the East Palace is to take the road from Yanhua Palace and Qingwan Palace. There are only two palaces on this road, so it is relatively quiet.

Just passing by the Yanhua Palace, I ran into Concubine Rui who was out of confinement and probably just came back from outside. She was dressed in a bright purple dress, and she met face to face with Yun Lanyue who was dressed in plain and elegant clothes. It was really different in style, just like They are people from two worlds.

Concubine Rui also heard about the cold war between Yun Lanyue and the prince, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and she took the initiative to walk towards her, as if she wanted to have some fun.

Yun Lanyue squinted her eyes, then slightly lowered her eyes and blessed her body: "Lanyue pays respects to Concubine Rui."

Concubine Rui pretended to be kind, and hurriedly stepped forward to help Yun Lanyue up: "Why should the princess be so polite, I am only a concubine, so I can't afford such a big gift."

"The empress is an elder, how can she not bear it?"

Even though Yun Lanyue said that, her tone didn't imply any humility, as if she was saying that it's a good thing you are sensible. Of course, this is only Rui Fei's own understanding.
