Chapter 697
Lu Jieyu paused when she heard the words of Concubine Xiao.
She looked at Concubine Bai who was sitting in the main seat and asked curiously.
"Is this Qingsong from Concubine Xiao's?"
When Yan Cairen heard this, his heart moved slightly.
She originally wondered how Qingsong, a little eunuch, would provoke Willow catkins to find fault frequently.
Right now, it seems to be related to Concubine Xiao.
Bai Fei put down the tea cup, and her voice was still soft.
"When I was still in the East Palace, Qing Song followed Concubine Xiao."
After getting this exact answer, Yan Cairen probably understood in his heart that it was because of Concubine Xiao that Liu Xu didn't like Qingsong.
Presumably there was an old grudge between Concubine Xiao and Concubine Bai.
Yan Cairen secretly rejoiced that she did not help Qingsong rashly, otherwise she would offend Bai Fei unknowingly.
Lu Jieyu was very interested in Concubine Xiao's affairs and couldn't help but ask.
"I heard that the emperor has a deep love for Concubine Xiao, is this true?"
When Bai Fei heard this, a bitter arc appeared on the corner of her mouth.
"When the emperor was still the prince, he really favored Concubine Xiao."
Then she said a lot about Concubine Xiao.
In some places, she deliberately said it in great detail, and in some places, she took it all by herself.
Lu Jieyu and Yan Cairen listened carefully.
These are the past events that only the old people in the palace know, and the two newcomers who have just entered the palace know nothing about it.
At the end, Bai Fei sighed faintly.
"These things shouldn't have been told to you, but this palace is afraid that you will not understand anything when you first enter the palace, and that you have violated the emperor's taboo, so I specially told you about these things, I hope you all remember, and try not to be in the emperor in the future. The matter of Concubine Xiao is brought up in front of you, so as not to make the emperor sad."
Lu Jieyu and Yan Cairen thanked Concubine Bai for her suggestion.
Bai Fei showed a tired look.
"Bengong is tired and wants to take a break, you can do it yourself."
With the help of the maid, she got up and walked out.
Lu Jieyu and Yan Cairen quickly got up and sent her away.
When Bai Fei passed by the courtyard, she caught sight of Qingsong who was still being trained, and called out to the catkins softly.
Liu Xu immediately ran over and blessed her body: "What is your order?"
Concubine Bai: "The pot of white camellia in the room looks a little wilted. You should let someone take it to bask in the sun."
Liu Xu, as a maid who has served Concubine Bai closely for many years, immediately understood the meaning of Concubine Bai's words, and replied with a smile, "Here."
She turned her head and said to Qingsong.
"What are you still doing? Why don't you go and move the camellia out?!"
Qingsong walked into the house and took out the heavy pot of white camellias.
Catkins pointed to the open space in the middle of the courtyard.
"You kneel there, put the camellia on top of your head, and let it bask in the sun."
It's midsummer, and the sun is very scorching. Even just standing in the sun for a period of time can make people peel off, not to mention holding such a heavy pot of camellias, it's just terrible.
Ke Qingsong had no way to resist.
He is just a slave, if the master is unwilling to protect him, no one cares about his life or death.
He did as he was told, kneeling on the uneven gravel road, raising the camellia with both hands and placing it on top of his head.
In summer, his clothes were thin, the stones on the road made his knees hurt, and the scorching sun made him sweat profusely.
Concubine Bai left with satisfaction.
At this time, Lu Jieyu and Yan Cairen both came out.
Seeing the scene in the courtyard, Yan Cairen didn't dare to say a word, just thought he didn't have a servant like Qingsong at all, and hurried back to the house.
Lu Jieyu knew that Qingsong would die sooner or later if he continued to struggle like this.
She didn't mind pushing it a little more to make Qingsong die faster, and by the way, she could sell Concubine Bai's favor.
Lu Jieyu walked down the steps, and when she passed Qingsong, she pushed Qingsong on purpose.
Qingsong was tired, hungry and had no strength. He was pushed violently and fell to the ground unexpectedly. The flower pot he was holding on his head also fell to the ground and was torn apart instantly.
Lu Jieyu looked terrified.
"Ah! What's the matter with you slave? Why do you want to hit me on the body?!"
Qing Song hurriedly got up, not daring to tell the difference, so he could only keep begging for mercy.
"The slave knows it's wrong, I beg Jieyu for mercy!"
Liu Xu quickly walked over and hurriedly asked, "Jieyu, are you alright?"
Lu Jieyu pressed her chest, looking like she had lingering fears.
"Oh, this slave just deliberately bumped into me just now. If such a big flower pot hits me, wouldn't I be finished?!"
Liu Xu just saw Lu Jieyu's actions and knew that she pushed Qingsong on purpose, but so what?
Qing Song will die sooner or later.
What's the difference between dying early and dying later?
Liu Xu hurriedly said: "Jieyu rest assured, I will give you an explanation for this matter."
After she finished speaking, she slapped Qingsong in the face and scolded.
"You are such a big dog, you dare to harm people in broad daylight?!"
This time I hit it so hard that the half of the green pine quickly became red and swollen, and it was burning hot.
He couldn't help but kowtow to Lu Jieyu begging for mercy.
Lu Jieyu: "A vicious minion like this will only be a scourge to keep, so kill it quickly."
Willow catkins summoned two powerful eunuchs and arrested Qingsong.
Qingsong struggled desperately to resist, but to no avail.
His struggle was only exchanged for a violent beating.
After asking Bai Fei for instructions, Liu Xu got permission and planned to kill Qingsong.
Although the palace is not allowed to abuse lynching, but it also varies from person to person.
For example, it is not a big deal for a high-ranking concubine to deal with one or two disobedient servants.
Qing Song was pressed to the ground with his mouth covered, his heart full of fear and despair.
Is he going to die here today?
The eunuch Dali raised his wooden stick high and was about to hit it when he suddenly heard a loud shout.
"stop!"
Qing Song was shocked when he heard this familiar voice.
This sounds like Baoqin!
He turned his head with difficulty, followed the sound, and saw Baoqin rushing towards him.
Soon she ran to Qingsong, grabbed the wooden stick from Eunuch Dali's hand, and threw it to the ground.
Willow catkins froze.
Since Baoqin was transferred to the imperial kitchen, she seldom saw Baoqin again.
She did not expect Baoqin to suddenly come to Yanyu Palace at this time.
Lu Jieyu frowned at Baoqin and asked unhappily.
"Who are you?"
Baoqin blessed her: "The servant is Baoqin, the maid of the palace beside the noble concubine. The noble lady has something to ask Qingsong, so she specially asked the servant to take him there."
Lu Jieyu's expression changed slightly when she heard the word "Prince Concubine".
She wanted to provoke the relationship between the imperial concubine and the emperor before, but the provoke failed, and she almost lost herself.
This made her jealous of the imperial concubine a little more.
Looking at Baoqin at this time, Lu Jieyu felt uneasy, and even the expression on her face showed a bit of gloom.
"Even if you are the maid of honor beside the imperial concubine, you can't trespass into Yanyu Palace without passing the information."
