Chapter 475: Story of Yanxi Palace Er Qing 8

"Wild flowers?" Qianlong laughed, pulled Er Qing into his arms, and kissed her: "My wild flowers have thorns..."

The colorful flowers in the imperial garden lost their color in Wei Yingluo's eyes. She just wanted to take a shortcut to deliver some fresh osmanthus cakes to the queen, but she saw this dazzling scene.

Qianlong's lips were tightly pressed against Erqing's, one hand restlessly hugged her waist, and the other hand stroked her fair neck. Erqing, the woman who usually pretended to be weak and pitiful in front of him, was now responding to Qianlong's enthusiasm with a shy face, like a blooming peony, eager to show her beauty.

Wei Yingluo stared at the intertwined figures, as if she wanted to tear them apart. She had long known that Er Qing was a woman with bad intentions, pretending to be virtuous on the surface, but secretly using despicable means.

Now that she has hooked up with the emperor, her vixen-like face has been fully exposed.

"This bitch will get her comeuppance sooner or later!" Wei Yingluo growled with gritted teeth, but she could only watch them disappear into the depths of the flowers.

She tightly grasped the food box in her hand, her fingertips almost embedded in the wooden box. The Queen had been so kind to her, she could not stand by and watch this vicious woman be so arrogant. One day, she would make Er Qing pay for what she had done!

Wei Yingluo took a deep breath, tried to suppress the anger in her heart, turned around and walked in the opposite direction. What she had to do now was to let the queen prepare in advance.

However, when she hurried to Changchun Palace, what she saw was the Queen sitting alone in front of the window, staring blankly at the blooming peonies outside the window, with a lonely look on her face.

"My queen..." Wei Yingluo felt a lump in her throat and almost burst into tears.

When the Queen heard her voice, she slowly turned around and forced a smile: "It's Yingluo, why are you here?"

"I made some osmanthus cake and brought it specially for Your Majesty to try." Wei Yingluo suppressed the grief in her heart, put the food box on the table and gently opened it.

"You are so thoughtful." The Queen picked up a piece of cake but didn't eat it. She just sniffed it gently, with a hint of bitterness in her tone: "I remember that you used to like sweet-scented osmanthus cake the most."

"I like it now too." Wei Yingluo lowered her head, not daring to look into the Queen's eyes, for fear that the tears in her eyes would flow uncontrollably.

"Your Majesty, I have something to say, but I don't know whether I should say it or not." Wei Yingluo knelt at the Queen's feet, with her head lowered, but there was a hint of determination in her tone.

"Yingluo, you have been with me for many years, just speak directly if you have anything to say."

"Your Majesty, I…I want to say…" Wei Yingluo bit her lip, feeling torn between her conscience and her desires.

Say it directly? Would it be too offensive? But if I don't say it, with your peaceful temperament, how can you fight against the vicious Yue Concubine? !

Seeing that she was hesitant to speak, the queen put down the cake in her hand and said gently: "Yingluo, you and I are master and servant in name, and sisters in love. Just say whatever you want to say."

Wei Yingluo raised her head, her eyes firm: "Madam, I dare you to... beware of Concubine Yue."

"Yingluo, I understand everything you said." The Queen gently stroked Wei Yingluo's hand, but there was a hint of bitterness in her eyes.

"The emperor likes her, of course, he has his reasons. As the queen, I should be virtuous and kind, how can I not tolerate others?"

Wei Yingluo's heart tightened. She knew the Queen too well. Although these words seemed generous, in fact, every word was heartbreaking.

"But Your Majesty, Concubine Yue...she is not a good person!" Wei Yingluo was so anxious that she was about to cry.

"I saw it with my own eyes. She...she deliberately seduced the emperor in the imperial garden. Her seductive tactics were simply..."

"Shut up!" the queen shouted, with a rare hint of severity in her tone.

"Yingluo, have you forgotten what I taught you every day? In the harem, the most taboo thing is to make irresponsible comments about the emperor and concubines. If you speak without restraint like this and it gets to the ears of others, won't it bring disaster?!"

Wei Yingluo's heart trembled, and she quickly knelt down to plead guilty: "I know I was wrong, please forgive me, Your Majesty!"

The Queen sighed, her tone returning to its usual gentleness: "Yingluo, you are doing this for my own good, I understand. But there are some things that you and I cannot control. Since the Emperor likes Concubine Yue, then she is good. As the Queen, I am supposed to be the mother of the country, how can I be so narrow-minded as to be on the same level as her?"

Although Wei Yingluo was resentful, she knew that the Queen had made up her mind, so she had to suppress her worries and resentment in her heart.

At night, the Changchun Palace was completely silent. The queen sat alone in front of the bronze mirror, looking at her increasingly haggard face in the mirror, her heart filled with bitterness.

Wei Yingluo felt mixed emotions. The Queen's words were like a bucket of cold water that extinguished her anger and made her even more worried. If the Queen gave in blindly, it would only make Er Qing even more unscrupulous!

It was late at night, and after Wei Yingluo helped the Queen to sleep, she returned to the Xinzheku. There was only a bed, a table, and a few simple pieces of furniture in the small room, but it was clean and tidy.

Wei Yingluo sat at the table, and in the dim candlelight, her mind kept replaying the scenes that happened in Changchun Palace during the day.

The Empress's forbearance, the Concubine Yue's arrogance, the Emperor's doting...all of these were like a tangled mess that made her unable to make sense of it.

"My fate is in my own hands!" Wei Yingluo murmured to herself, with a gleam of determination in her eyes.

She couldn't stand by and watch the Queen being wronged! Even if it cost her life, she had to protect her!

After Wei Yingluo left, the Queen paced alone in Changchun Palace with a worried look on her face.

"My lady, don't worry. Wei Yingluo doesn't speak lightly. Don't take it to heart."

The person who spoke was the Queen's personal maid, Mingyu.

The Queen shook her head and sighed softly, "How could I be angry with her? Now that she has been demoted to the Xinzheku by the Emperor, she is still so presumptuous. I am afraid that she will suffer."

Seeing that the queen was worried, Mingyu comforted her, "Don't worry, your majesty. Wei Yingluo is very clever and will definitely be able to handle it. Who knows, she may even turn the Xinzheku upside down!"

The Queen shook her head and chuckled, "With her little cleverness, I'm afraid she won't be able to stir up any trouble in a place like Xinzheku. I just hope she can behave herself and live in peace."

Xinzheku, located in the most remote corner of the Forbidden City, is a place dedicated to the storage of palace maids and eunuchs who have made mistakes. It is a place that never sees sunlight all year round, with heavy workloads, and many palace maids and eunuchs with grudges gather here. If you are not careful, you will get into trouble.
