Chapter 329: I Want to Report the Queen Mother for Her Harem
Concubine Lan's words were intermittent, full of fear and anxiety.
Chuntao hugged her back tightly, patted her back gently, and suggested in a gentle voice.
"Master, I know you must have encountered some difficulties. If you can't handle it, why not ask the Madam or the Emperor for help. I beg you not to hold it in any longer."
"Mother can't help me."
Lan Fei shook her head and said bitterly.
She didn't dare tell anyone that Wanying was seeking revenge in her dream.
After a while, Lan Fei, with red eyes, awkwardly withdrew from Chuntao's arms.
"I just had a nightmare, but I feel much better now."
"Chun Tao, go light the calming incense that the Ministry of Internal Affairs sent. Remember to be gentle and don't alarm Aunt Liu."
After giving the order, Concubine Lan lay down wrapped tightly in the quilt.
As soon as she closed her eyes, Wanying's miserable condition appeared in her mind.
Smelling the mellow and soothing fragrance, Lan Fei, whose heart calmed down a little, did not dare to close her eyes at all.
She thought carefully about what Chuntao had just said.
Is it possible that only if she reports everything that Wanying has experienced to the emperor can she get rid of her entanglement in the dream?
The Queen Mother has passed away, and there is no one to support the evildoers anymore.
If she reported this matter, would the emperor guess that she...
The two villains in Lan Fei's mind have been fighting all the time. One villain told her to put her family first, and the other advised her to let the bad guys get the punishment they deserve.
The emperor had previously suppressed the death of the fourteenth prince. Later, when Hongchun went to the farm and learned the cause of his father's death, he did not dare to make it too public.
Therefore, Sulan's mother, who lived deep in the inner house, had never heard of the death of her cousin who was guarding the imperial tomb.
Concubine Lan, who lived in seclusion in the palace, naturally didn't know either.
The two little people in her head who held different opinions made her feel suffocated.
Lan Fei tossed and turned in bed countless times, but couldn't come up with any solution, which made her lose her appetite for breakfast.
An Lingrong glanced at the dark circles on Concubine Lan's face that even powder couldn't cover, and thought that Concubine Lan was busy with her own affairs and definitely had no intention of getting involved with Hongli.
The Fourth Prince, kneeling by the door today, seemed exceptionally silent, and the vicissitudes of life on his face were enough to show his filial piety towards the Empress Dowager.
This is what the bored Concubine Hua whispered to An Lingrong.
An Lingrong nodded silently in agreement.
However, she became wary of the Fourth Prince. With Prince Guo adding fuel to the fire, she wondered if this man would go crazy and attack Hongzhan and Hongyao.
An Lingrong, who had plenty of money and manpower, didn't want to be too passive. When she passed by Cining Gate, her eyes swept over Yu Ying'er who was holding pastries.
"This servant pays respects to Her Majesty Shu Guifei!"
"No gifts."
An Lingrong spoke kindly.
Then he kept walking towards Yongshou Palace.
The fact that Yu Ying'er took the initiative to come over and pay her respects meant that she had something to ask for.
This saved her a lot of effort.
It’s a pity that Yu Ying’er lives in the prince’s residence, so it’s not convenient to summon her.
After An Lingrong finished her pastries, she called Bao Ge over.
"I see that Yu Ying'er seems to have something to say. Find an opportunity to meet with her."
"If the request isn't too excessive, I'll help if I can."
Yu Ying'er looks much thinner than when she was working in the palace. Maybe her life is not going well.
An Lingrong didn't know the Fourth Prince very well, but she understood that he must have some grudges against the palace maids who came from the same background as her biological mother.
"The servant understands."
Although Bao Ge looks down on Yu Ying'er, who is bent on currying favor with the Fourth Prince, she never opposes her master's decision.
The next day, An Lingrong was getting ready when Xiao Linzi came hurriedly to report.
"Master, Concubine Lan of Taiji Palace and her chief maid Chuntao have passed through the Auspicious Gate and are kneeling outside the Yangxin Palace, requesting an audience with the Emperor."
"Okay, I understand."
An Lingrong had some guesses about Concubine Lan's request for a meeting.
The emperor, who was handling memorials in the Yangxin Palace, looked at the person kneeling on the ground in confusion and asked in bewilderment.
"Lan Fei, you came here so early in the morning, is there something urgent?"
"Your Majesty, I have something important to report. Please dismiss your attendants."
Lan Fei pleaded with her back straight and her eyes red.
The emperor looked deeply at Ulanara Sulan, who had lost a lot of weight, and gave orders with a serious face.
"Su Peisheng, please lead the others out."
"The slave obeys the order."
Su Peisheng looked at Concubine Lan's haggard face and realized that what she was talking about must be a big deal.
After stepping out of the hall, Su Peisheng considerately lowered the thick curtain and drove the eunuchs guarding both sides of the door aside.
Just as he raised his foot to move away, he vaguely heard a fatal word.
"I will report the Empress Dowager for committing adultery in the palace!"
Su Peisheng felt his scalp tingle when he heard this, and he quickly quickened his pace.
Damn it!
Is this something he can hear?
Is Concubine Lan crazy?
Su Peisheng sighed worriedly, his old friend might be in trouble again.
The words that Concubine Lan shouted caused a storm of shock in the emperor's heart.
Could it be that the Empress Dowager's secret pregnancy has been exposed?
However, the emperor had seen many storms after all, so he narrowed his eyes and asked in a stern voice.
"Lan Fei! Do you know what you are talking about?"
"Your Majesty, I understand what I am saying."
Concubine Lan raised her head and looked directly at the emperor, swearing word by word.
"If what I said is false, I will burst into flames and die, unable to return to the embrace of Changshengtian."
"Your Majesty, I have a letter left by Concubine Ying. After reading it, you will understand what I am saying."
She stood up and handed over the letter.
Concubine Lan was once good friends with Concubine Ying and was very familiar with her handwriting.
This crazy accusation letter was copied overnight after she returned to the palace, and it was so realistic that it could be mistaken for the real thing.
The emperor glanced over the whole thing, shaking with anger. He swept the teacup on the table to the ground.
"This is simply outrageous! Such a ridiculous thing..."
The Queen Mother actually took her two nieces out of the palace under the pretext of praying for a child for him, and summoned the commoner Yunli to do something inappropriate.
Wu Ya Wanying's words are full of accusations against the ridiculous mother and son.
"Your Majesty, Wanying was not murdered by a villain. She committed suicide by hanging. Please, Your Majesty, help her."
"I have a maid sent by the Queen Mother watching over me. My every move is under surveillance in Shoukang Palace. I have no choice but to feign illness and stay at home."
"I have only now found the opportunity to redress Sister Wanying's grievances."
Lan Fei said the half-truths and half-lies that were hidden in her heart, and instantly she felt her breathing became much smoother.
