The most beautiful lady in the harem

Chapter 268: Exposed

The maid's shoulders trembled as she looked at Concubine Xin Shu, then she lowered her head and dared not speak. "No one would have thought that Concubine Qin was so sensitive. How could she detect that it was Caixia?"

Concubine Xin Shu took a deep breath, calmed down for a while, and sneered, "It seems that this bitch is much smarter than I thought."

Concubine Xin gritted her teeth and thought, thinking that Qin Liuse did not guess it was Caixia directly, but used the incident of the last time to unravel the mystery and lead Caixia out.

She clenched her fists, then turned around and asked the slave girl under her, "Did you reveal anything?"

The maid shook her head and said, "I went to the laundry bureau to ask Caixia, and she said that she did not give the queen away, and that she followed the queen's instructions and did not come to our Chuxiu Palace to report the news, but went directly to the Shanggong Bureau. I think Qin Zhaoyi would not be found even if we sent someone to follow her."

Concubine Xin Shu then breathed a sigh of relief. Ever since Emperor Yongjia's warning last time, she had been hesitant and cautious in everything she did, for the sake of Emperor Yongjia's face. She didn't want him to be disappointed in her and affect her image in his heart.

Although he wants to harm others, he won't do it himself. Doing so will make things much more cumbersome, but fortunately he can protect himself.

But the chess piece is useless, it's useless.

Now that Caixia had lost her function, Concubine Li didn't even think about it. She just said "Amitabha" and then said to the maid kneeling on the ground, "Find an opportunity to keep her in the laundry department forever."

"Yes!" The maid kneeling on the ground responded with coldness in her eyes, then retreated.

-

Let's talk about Qin Liuse. Recently, she has started to serve Emperor Yongjia again. She is pregnant and is often called upon. It can only be said that she is in great spirits.

Behind Qin Liuse's back, those concubines almost scolded her to death.

But this didn't make Qin Liuse angry at all.

It's not that she's stupid, but since she came into favor, especially after she became pregnant, she had been able to predict this path.

You will always be envied by others.

After having the child, Qin Liuse's heart was half on Emperor Yongjia and half on her own belly, and she was afraid that there would be any problem.

Therefore, we have to be extremely cautious and careful in everything we do every day, for fear that others will take advantage of our inattention and harm our children.

When Qin Liuse has some free time occasionally, he is not idle either.

Worried that her brain wouldn't work well after being pregnant for too long, she began to think about how to take advantage of the current situation in the palace and let those factions fight each other.

Others wished that she would turn against Concubine Ning so that they could reap the benefits, but Qin Liuse also wanted to experience this wonderful feeling.

In the blink of an eye, it was March, the time of spring when flowers bloomed, and the palace was full of colorful flowers.

Every day, the concubines who had nothing to do would come to the garden in the palace to appreciate the flowers, play cards, and eat.

Qin Liuse usually loved to join in this kind of fun, and she also liked to appreciate the flowers, but because she was pregnant, she didn't dare to squeeze into crowded places.

She was afraid that someone might accidentally trip her and her belly would disappear.

So in this season of spring when flowers are blooming, Qin Liuse always stays in her Zhaoyang Palace.

On this day, she wore a light pink skirt, which was delicate and tender, and more beautiful than the flowers on the green leaves outside.

And now that her belly is slowly swelling and she is five months old, Qin Liuse's movements have been deliberately slowed down, and her manners have become more elegant and graceful, just like a spring breeze blowing by.

Aunt Mingyue looked at her master and thought that she didn't need to go out to the garden to appreciate the flowers. Just staying in Zhaoyang Palace every day and looking at her master was enough to make her feel relaxed and happy.

However, although Qin Liuse did not go out, his spies were often wandering outside and often brought back some gossip for Qin Liuse.

For example, two masters outside were talking to each other and were about to have a quarrel.

For example, if two people dislike each other, they would pretend not to know each other when they walk on the street.

Qin Liuse had a gossipy heart and liked to listen to this kind of things, so even though she couldn't go out, she often sent the eunuchs and maids in her palace out to act as her ears.

The eunuchs and maids were also happy to do this job, which was much better than the previous jobs that only meant they could rot in the palace.

One afternoon, after Qin Liuse woke up, he sat by the window bored. Although he had just woken up, he was still yawning. This was probably spring sleepiness.

The maid helped her rinse her mouth and wash her face, and she ate something, and only then did she feel better.

While Qin Liuse was having afternoon tea, Qiuxia and her maid came back from outside with a "thump thump thump".

As soon as the two came back, they started chattering with Qin Liuse about the things they had done with the nobleman they met in the Four Seasons Garden.

"Just now in the garden, Wen Cairen almost had an argument with Lady Liu, but Lady Liu was so gentle that no matter how harshly or loudly Wen Cairen spoke, she just held her mouth as if she was about to cry, and they couldn't start an argument."

Qiuxia chattered, "Although Wen Cairen is of a low rank now, she has a bad temper. Several people who spoke up for Lady Liu were scolded back by her."

Qin Liuse grabbed a handful of melon seeds and handed them to Qiuxia, laughing as she listened.

Wen Cairen has this kind of personality, and Liu Yiyi does have this kind of personality as well.

However, Lady Liu is not really weak, she just pretends to be weak in front of others.

But Qin Liuse admired her a little. After all, people like Qin Huaijin and many other concubines all pretended to be pitiful and weak in front of Emperor Yongjia.

But the only one who can be consistent in front of others and never change her face is Liu Yiyi.

This person's mentality is also strong enough.

Qin Liuse was eating melon seeds, his eyes rolling around, and a lot of ideas came to his mind.

Here, she was having afternoon tea with her maids, while over there, Concubine Wen had returned to the palace and was not so generous.

She was not as kind to servants as Qin Liuse. In her eyes, the master was the master and the servants were the servants.

So, he would eat his own afternoon tea and snacks and would never share them with the servants. He would only give them to them if they were about to go bad and he didn't want to eat them anymore.

Moreover, now, Concubine Lan is the mistress of the palace. Concubine Wen’s room is much smaller than before, and she has become even more stingy.

Wen Cairen opened the window and sat there looking outside, but unexpectedly, Dongxia came over carrying a wooden basket.

Wen Cairen was filled with anger, and was thinking about scolding Dongxia when she came over. How could she come to him so openly? If people knew about their relationship, she would be killed.

But no one expected that Dongxia went to Lan Jieyu's room with the basket.
