Chapter 691
When the first Empress Dowager came to power, Chen Zitong was bestowed upon Zhong Ning by her and made a Concubine Yun, which sounded glamorous, but was always bullied by the noble concubines whom the Empress Dowager fostered and placed next to Zhong Ning.

Later, she was suppressed to the point that she became a beauty, and she "visited" many times even in places like the Department of Punishment, which punished slaves.

Her suffering was not over until the day Zhong Ning regained power, but it was nothing more than the end of her physical suffering, and her mental torment was still endless.

She is now named Concubine Shu, because Zhong Ning's harem is too thin. Most of the concubines arranged for him by the Queen Mother before were the Queen Mother's eyeliner and meticulous work, and he disposed of them. If they couldn't satisfy them, Zhong Ning gave them high positions.

Only the position of empress has been vacant, and Meng Baiyun knows in his heart who Zhong Ning is leaving that unique position for.

In the next year, Zhong Ning was forced to draft, leaving behind two or three beauties.

But in this harem, there are still few red flowers, and the loneliness is unbearable, and the emperor's favor can't be waited for, and the end of a lifetime can be seen at a glance.

Chen Zitong was one of them, and now that Zhong Ning announced that he was going to abdicate, they were even more hopeless, and she should have known about it.

"The palace lady told me to send her away." Her tone was a bit austere, and it was not difficult to find that her eye circles were slightly red, and she had cried.

"Oh, what were you sitting here watching?"

"Bird, Meng Baiyun, you and I fought over a man back then, who would have thought of that, but in the end we all became what we couldn't imagine. You are very happy, but I am very unfortunate."

She was outspoken, and she didn't want to hide anything, she was too tired to live.

The palace maid was also sent away. If such words spread, I am afraid it will cause trouble to the upper body.

Meng Baiyun didn't know what to say, if this kind of life was given to her, she would be either crazy or stupid.

"Have you ever thought about leaving the palace?"

"Get out of the palace?" She smiled wryly, "Can I get out? How can I get out? I'm afraid I will be trapped here to death in this life."

"It's all about human effort. How will you know if you don't try? You know about the emperor's early courtship, right?"

"Well, I know, so I'm sitting here alone, thinking about my future."

"In the history of the alternation of imperial power, if the concubines of the previous emperor have heirs, they can leave the palace and live with the heirs."

"But I didn't, the emperor never touched me, me, I'm still..."

Saying that, Chen Zitong blushed.

"Rules are dead, but people are alive. Since the concubines of all dynasties are allowed to leave the palace, when the emperor really retires, you will be Concubine Shu. At that time, I may ask Feihong to change the rules. "

"Really?"

Chen Zitong's eyes were full of joy.

  But Meng Baiyun felt that what he said was a bit early: "Let's talk about it when Feihong grows up, the emperor can't retreat yet, once he retreats, the world will definitely be in chaos."

Even so, Chen Zitong was also full of hope: "Anyway, with your words just now, I feel much more comfortable. Thank you, Bai Yun."

"Haha, nothing."

"I know that the prince is still young, and there are too many voices of opposition in the court, but if the prince can really rewrite the palace rules after he ascends the throne, so that we women who are about to die in the palace can return home, I will definitely join the harem." The sisters said, let’s dredge up the house and help the prince together.”

What a windfall.

"This matter should not be stretched too much. If you are willing to help Feihong win people's hearts, I would also like to thank you very much."

"We each take what we need, and I'll go back now."

The woman with dim eyes and no luster seemed to come alive again.

Meng Baiyun looked at her back and chuckled. In fact, there were not many women in the harem. Most of these families were the same as Chen Zitong, and his father and brother didn't have much status in the court, but they were still a force.

After chatting with Chen Zitong, I gained a group of female allies. Life is full of surprises.

Meng Baiyun waited for Zhong Ning in the imperial garden, and went to the Yizheng Hall to take a look at it when it was dark. The lights inside were brightly lit, the figures were shaking, and the fierce quarrel could be heard from a distance, and it was not over yet.

Meng Baiyun wanted to leave disappointed, but suddenly saw the door open, Yan Hongyi came out from inside, and whispered a few words to a little eunuch beside the door.

Meng Baiyun hurriedly called him: "Chief Manager."

When Yan Hongyi saw her, he was slightly taken aback, and then walked towards her with big strides.

"Madam Long."

"When will the emperor end, I have something to look for him."

"What's the matter, can I pass it on for you?"

"Important things must be said in person."

Yan Hongyi shook her head: "I'm afraid it can't be done now. I think we will have to discuss until dawn today. Madam Long, you should go back and rest quickly. The clothes are too thin."

Discussing about Meng Baiyun's clothes, what did Long Aohan do, and whether he would take care of others.

But who would have thought that Zhong Ning would suddenly propose to abdicate, and the dispute continued until dusk and sunset.

He knew that Meng Baiyun was pregnant, and worried that she would not be able to act too much due to her status as a eunuch, so he could only add politely: "You won't be able to wait for the emperor today. If you don't want to leave the palace, the servant will arrange someone to serve you. It's getting dark and it's going to rain, so don't wait here."

Hearing what Yan Hongyi said, Meng Baiyun probably won't see Zhong Ning today.

"Boss, can I have a chat with you alone?"

"I'm sorry, Madam Long, the emperor is waiting for your servant."

"Okay, go get busy."

So, this day was in vain.

Who would have known that Zhong Ning would suddenly act so capriciously.

Abdicate, this is really no joke.

Meng Baiyun lived in the palace for one night, got up early the next morning, and sent someone to inquire, only to find out that the emperor and all the ministers had been staying in the Palace of Political Affairs until the ugly day, some of the old ministers were exhausted and fainted. Busy, the whole palace is in chaos.

Can you keep from being a mess?

Zhong Ning supported Long Feihong that day. Although Meng Baiyun and others knew that he intended to abdicate to Feihong, the court officials thought that he wanted Feihong to inherit the throne after a hundred years. If the emperor had his own child, he would give up raising a child with a foreign surname.

Therefore, Zhong Ning's abdication is not shocking.

How could they accept it for a while.

Meng Baiyun got up, took a shower and had breakfast. Compared with yesterday's anxiety, she was much calmer today.

Judging from yesterday's situation, Zhong Ning will not be able to retreat for a while.

As long as he doesn't abdicate now, it's fine.
