Chapter 208: Bed Climbing Palace Maid 22
That night, the emperor turned over the green card of Concubine Chen.
"Your Majesty, have a cup of calming tea!" Concubine Chen presented a cup of calming tea to the emperor, "I see that you don't seem to be in good spirits. Drinking a cup of calming tea will help Your Majesty sleep well tonight."
The emperor took the calming tea from the concubine, took a sip and put down the cup: "I heard that you transferred a maid from the flower room to your palace. Let the maid come out and let me see her."
The concubine's eyes darkened, and then she smiled and said, "Who on earth is gossiping to His Majesty? Even telling him such a small matter? She is just a lowly palace maid. Why should His Majesty care so much? I feel very uncomfortable when you do this..."
The Concubine Chen gradually became silent, as the Emperor's eyes turned colder as he looked at her.
Emperor: "Concubine Chen, don't let me say it a second time."
"I know I was wrong," Concubine Chen quickly admitted her mistake and then looked at Yingrui and said, "Go and call that palace maid over."
"Yes." Yingrui was very angry, but she could only retreat respectfully.
Who was the traitor who revealed Jiang Chunxi's existence? Otherwise, how could the emperor know about Jiang Chunxi's existence and be curious about her and want to meet her?
Someone behind the scenes must have told the emperor how beautiful Jiang Chunxi was, otherwise how could the emperor care about a palace maid.
Jiang Chunxi was brought over quickly. When she saw Wei Yan at the door, her eyes did not linger on him for long.
Wei Yan kept his head down, as he was afraid that if he looked up he would see Chun Xi. His eyes could not hide the pain in his heart.
"Your servant greets the Emperor and Empress Chen." Jiang Chunxi walked in with her head lowered and knelt down as soon as she came in.
"Raise your head." The emperor said. It goes without saying that this palace maid must be of outstanding appearance since she was brought to Chonghua Palace by Concubine Chen.
Of course, what made the emperor curious was how outstanding the appearance of this palace maid was, which was why he asked Aunt Fang to transfer her out of Taiji Palace.
Jiang Chunxi raised her head, not daring to look directly at the emperor, and her whole body showed a look of fear.
When the emperor saw Jiang Chunxi's appearance, he was a little stunned. He finally understood why Aunt Fang transferred people away from Taiji Hall.
The emperor was not angry about Aunt Fang's behavior. If Aunt Fang sent her goddaughter to him, the emperor might be angry. After all, he hated it most when his confidants had inappropriate thoughts.
"That's a good one. You can serve in front of the emperor from now on!" As he said that, the emperor called Wei Yan in.
"Take this maid to the Taiji Hall and make her a tea-serving maid!" The emperor ordered after Wei Yan came in.
"Yes, I will take him back to Taiji Hall right away." Wei Yan answered with his head down, then came to Jiang Chunxi and said, "Hurry up and get up and follow us!"
Jiang Chunxi had a look of panic on her face, but she didn't dare to say anything. She kowtowed to the emperor, then stood up and left with Wei Yan.
The Concubine Chen looked at Jiang Chunxi's leaving back, her eyes flashing with a faint cold light, but she quickly retracted the cold light in her eyes, and then she said to the emperor coquettishly: "Your Majesty, you want to take the people in my palace away as soon as you open your mouth. Do you want to give me some compensation? Otherwise, I will not agree."
"I will have someone send you some jewelry tomorrow," the emperor said with a faint smile, "Okay, it's getting late, let's get settled!"
The emperor's mind was now full of stunning beauties like Jiang Chunxi, so naturally he had no extra thoughts to coax Concubine Chen.
I originally thought that Concubine Chen was beautiful enough, but I didn't expect that there are always people better than you. Compared with that palace maid, Concubine Chen's beauty is really far behind!
The Concubine Chen could naturally hear the impatience in the emperor's tone, but what could she do? She didn't dare to show her temper to the emperor.
But who is actually interfering?
Humph! Just wait for her to find out who is behind this. She will make the other person suffer.
When Wei Yan and Jiang Chunxi walked out of Chonghua Palace, their hearts ached when they saw Jiang Chunxi's desperate look.
"Wei Yan, I have already left the Taiji Hall. I just want to stay away from you, but why don't you let me go?" Jiang Chunxi said as she walked, her eyes unfocused:
"Chun Xi, that's not the case. Why do you think so?" Wei Yan said urgently:
"The maidservant beside the Concubine Chen was the woman that night," Jiang Chunxi stopped and turned to look at Wei Yan sarcastically, "I had just been in the flower room for a few days when I was taken to the Concubine Chen's palace. Do you dare to say that you and that woman were not behind this?"
"It was Aunt Fang who asked the Emperor to take me out of Chonghua Palace, right? If Aunt Fang hadn't asked the Emperor to take me out of Chonghua Palace, I would have died in Chonghua Palace. But you and that woman went to great lengths to convince Concubine Chen to bring me to Chonghua Palace. Aren't you just trying to get rid of me?"
"Wei Yan," Jiang Chunxi's tears fell from her eyes, "How could you be so cruel to me? Not only did you betray me, you even wanted to kill me. I was ready to stay away from you, but why didn't you and that woman let me go?"
"Chun Xi, it's not like that," Wei Yan also burst into tears. He wanted to hug Chun Xi so much, but he didn't dare. In Chun Xi's heart, he was already extremely dirty. How could he dare to touch Chun Xi? "The Concubine Chen wanted to borrow your womb to have a child. I really didn't expect that bitch Ying Rui would see you in the flower room and bring you to Chonghua Palace."
"You know that the concubines in the harem want to use the palace maids to give birth to children, all with the vicious intention of keeping the child and abandoning the mother. When I knew you were in Chonghua Palace, I immediately went to find Aunt Fang."
"Chun Xi, I know you don't want to become the emperor's concubine, but now this is the only way you can go. If the emperor sees your appearance, he will definitely take you into the harem, so you must fight for his favor."
"But don't worry, with me, my master, and Aunt Fang, we will definitely protect you and will never let you..."
"Don't say any more," Jiang Chunxi covered her ears and collapsed, "Wei Yan, how can you be so cruel? First you betrayed me, and now you want me to win your favor. What am I, Jiang Chunxi, in your eyes?"
"Chunxi, don't be like this," Wei Yan raised his hand and wanted to touch Jiang Chunxi, but he didn't dare to reach out in the end, "I love you. Apart from you, there is no one else in my heart. You are the only love of my life."
"You don't know how much I regret and how much I hate myself. If it weren't for you, and if I hadn't wanted to protect you silently, I would definitely not be able to survive. The regret in my heart makes me want to kill myself, so as to avoid living in pain every day."
"Chun Xi, I know I've let you down, and I won't even ask for your forgiveness. I just ask you to stop doing this, okay? Seeing you like this, my heart aches as if it were cut by a knife. I feel so miserable that I'd rather die than live."
