"Have you heard? On the day the little prince gave birth, the Empress went to the Compassionate Palace to search the palace!"
"Is there such a thing?"
"That's right! I heard that a puppet with witchcraft was found!"
"Then this Concubine Hui is practicing witchcraft in the Palace of Compassion and Ning? This is a taboo in the palace, a capital offense!"
"How could it be? I heard that the concubine Hui was framed by the empress dowager. The doll that was originally placed in the palace was a puppet with the empress dowager's birthday written on it, but it was replaced with the concubine Hui's puppet!"
"Ah? How could this be?"
"It is said that the court lady who was acting was afraid, so she replaced it with the puppet of the concubine Hui, but it was revealed during the palace search!"
"In that case, is it really hurting Concubine Hui?"
"That's right! At that time, the empress was so angry that she bumped into the concubine Hui. That's why she gave birth prematurely!"
"Oh my god! This the empress looks quite peaceful on weekdays, how could she do such a thing?"
"Isn't this just knowing people, knowing faces but not knowing your heart! I heard that Concubine Ke was there at that time, but she could see it clearly!"
"It turns out that the concubine Ke is here? Then this matter is probably not a rumor, it is true!"
"you do not say!"
Rumors abounded in the harem, talking about Concubine Hui and the child everywhere, and the Queen's hat could not be taken off no matter what.
Even Concubine Chen heard about this and hurried to Concubine Ke's palace.
"Sister Kefei, there have been rumors in the palace recently, and I don't know how credible they are? Was my sister really there at the time?" Concubine Chen asked cautiously, but the words she spoke were extremely straightforward.
Concubine Ke smiled, and said: "Sister Chenfei, you and I have been in the palace for many years, what kind of turmoil has not been seen? This matter is worth your visit to my palace."
Concubine Chen said: "Of course it is worth it. The situation in the future will have to be weighed. Even if you don't care about the disputes in the harem, you still need to save your life."
But on the surface, Concubine Chen smiled and said: "Sister, it's not that my sister is troublesome, it's just that the empress is involved, and this concubine is somewhat afraid."
After all, there was still a little fear in Concubine Chen's eyes.
Concubine Ke kept watching, but couldn't help laughing, and said: "Sister, don't worry, you won't be involved in this matter anyway."
"Don't you still have to rely on your elder sister's protection?" Concubine Chen laughed, and then said loudly: "Come here, present the things I brought to Concubine Ke!"
"yes."
A court lady brought up two boxes, and Concubine Chen got up and opened the two boxes, saying: "Sister Ke, you also know that my concubine's hometown is in Lingnan, where this concubine is rich in snails, so I brought two boxes here for my sister today. They are all small things, please accept them with a smile."
Concubine Ke looked at the two boxes of snails, they were three points better than this year's Sui Gong, Concubine Ke also liked it very much.
"Then I would like to thank my sister for her kindness!" Concubine Ke said with a smile, and asked people to take over everything.
Concubine Chen heaved a sigh of relief, as long as Concubine Ke took the things, then for the sake of these things, she would not be implicated in what happened in the future, so she could rest assured.
"Sister Kefei thinks she is tired, so the concubine will not bother her, so I will leave." Concubine Chen stood up, bowed with blessings and left.
"Sister, go slowly!" Concubine Ke watched Concubine Chen walk out of her palace gate, and the smile on the corner of her mouth suddenly became cold.
