The Empress Behind the Veil
Chapter 46 This Problem Is Not Simple
“This morning, Glorious Consort Zhao fell in the royal flower garden. The son of the emperor was hardly helped.”
“What? Why is that?” Qin Ruojiu was shocked. Your Majesty's concubine is the Emperor's favorite person, let alone the womb in it, why can't you be careful?
“I don't know either, I just heard that he was hit by a ladyboy for not being careful. But he has been examined by the palace healer, he is fine.”
When he heard the word “ alright”, Qin Ruojiu just felt relieved. If Consort Zhao lost her son, she would be saddened, at the same time, Emperor Zhaolie who hated Qin Ruojiu would torture her because of this matter.
Lu’Er noticed Qin Ruojiu's countenance changed, she could already read his heart, Lu’Er clasped Qin Ruojiu's hand to give her warmth, “Priest, sorry I was too panicked. Actually His Majesty the Emperor had already investigated this matter, the lady-in-waiting that crashed into Senior Concubine Zhao was not from Fengyi Palace, but from Xiaoyang Pavilion Consort Zhen. So, no relationship with us, Empress don't worry.”
Qin Ruojiu's heart calmed down, “Iya. This problem is not simple, the lady-in-waiting is intentional or not, this problem will be widespread. From now on, you must be more careful, the palace is different from other places, borrowing the hands of people to commit crimes and slandering others is common, you must be careful.”
Lu’Er nodded according, then propped up Qin Ruojiu, “Iya, Empress. Lu’Er has been in the palace for several years, has also seen many things and events.I understand that it is clearly important not a problem and other regulations. But Xiao Huan and Yan’er, they are both still small, I fear they will involve the Empress again.”
“After the previous incident, they should not dare to be careless anymore. You must remind them often, not for my sake, but for their own safety. You also know the situation in the palace, a lot of people are dropping each other. As empress, I look successful, but I actually have to be vigilant at all times. If I'm negligent or careless, I'll be ambushed. Moreover, those who do not have a position in this palace, they will more easily become victims.” before he only heard the news of birds about the situation in the palace, but now, he himself has felt.
“Lu’Er will remember the Queen's advice. I will warn Xiao Huan and Yan’er.”
Right now, Xiao Huan and Yan’er came while carrying the swallow nest porridge and pastries while talking.
When they met Qin Ruojiu, they paid their respects to the Empress.
Qin Ruojiu nodded, waved her hand and said, “What are you guys talking about?”
Having been helped by Qin Ruojiu, Yan’er and Xiao Huan's fear of Qin Ruojiu was destroyed. To them, Qin Ruojiu was the most humble and kindest master. Not arrogant, always gentle and calm, not commanding at will, let alone angry.
So, they also told their feelings to their master without hesitation.
Yan’er who was aware of being annoyed, immediately said angrily, “All because of Aunt Fenglan who was in the kitchen, challenged him to be more senior, he often oppresses us.”
Lu’Er also knew that this little girl was not happy, but this girl should have held back, even a small problem like this could not be held back by her, so Lu’Er advised, “You do not need to care about it. During your work in the palace, you should be able to hold back, otherwise you yourself will feel the consequences.”
