Chapter 222: Bed Climbing Palace Maid 36
Then Aunt Fang put away the coldness in her eyes. The most important thing now was to let Chunxi give birth to the baby safely. Other things could be put aside for now. After Chunxi gave birth to the baby safely, they could plan revenge.
Concubine Chun did intend to take action against Concubine Liu's daughter. In the following days, Concubine Chun and Concubine Liu fought to the death, and Wei Yan took advantage of this opportunity to lead them to suspect Concubine Shang Chen.
This was too much. Concubine Chun and Concubine Liu immediately united as a front to deal with Concubine Chen. In fact, according to their thinking, they should not let others lead them by the nose like this. However, the two of them were so confused by the fight that Wei Yan took advantage of the opportunity.
However, with the powerful alliance between Concubine Liu and Concubine Chun, Yingyan, who was beside Concubine Chen, got into trouble first.
When she was having a secret meeting with Imperial Physician Wu, they were caught red-handed. This was a serious crime of defiling the palace, so the Queen directly ordered Yingyan and Imperial Physician Wu to be executed, and the Emperor also became disgusted with Concubine Chen because of this incident.
It is normal for concubines in the harem to win over the imperial physicians. As long as they don't set their sights on the emperor's personal physicians, the emperor will turn a blind eye and pretend not to know.
What was disgusting about Concubine Chen was that she actually used her own palace maid to win over the imperial physician. In short, this matter really disgusted the emperor, and then Concubine Chen fell out of favor.
As Concubine Chen fell out of favor, Yingrui became more and more eager to appease Wei Yan and reconcile with him.
But Wei Yan deliberately avoided Yingrui, and since Concubine Chen had fallen out of favor, Yingrui could not see Wei Yan at all.
Then, when Yingrui was extremely anxious, Wei Yan sent a young eunuch from the imperial court to appear in Yingrui's sight, waiting for Yingrui to take the bait.
Yingrui did take the bait, but she did not intend to seduce the young eunuch. She just wanted to bribe the young eunuch to pass a message to Wei Yan on her behalf.
"Did you help me pass the message to Wei Yan? This has been the nth time. You have taken so many benefits from me, but Wei Yan still refuses to come to see me. This makes me doubt whether you have not helped her pass the message to Wei Yan at all."
"Miss Yingrui, you are really wronging me. I am not the kind of person who would take money and not do anything," the young eunuch said, "It is Eunuch Wei who does not want to see you at all. So even if I talk to Eunuch Wei about you, it will be useless."
As he said this, the eunuch stuffed the banknote back into Yingrui's hand and said, "Forget it. Your banknote is too hot to handle. I don't want it. Since you doubt me like this, you should go find someone else!"
Yingrui was furious, but she had to please the eunuch and stuffed the banknote back into the eunuch's hand: "Look at you, I just said it casually, but you are so angry."
The young eunuch stuffed the banknote into his sleeve with satisfaction and said, "Miss Yingrui, please don't say such casual words in the future, otherwise it will really hurt people!"
"Okay, I'll leave first. When I see Eunuch Wei, I will convey your words to him. But if Eunuch Wei is still impatient to listen, then I really can't do anything about it." As soon as the little eunuch finished speaking, he got up and left.
Watching the eunuch leave, Yingrui's expression was so gnashing! She had every reason to suspect that the eunuch did not help her pass on the message.
But she really couldn't think of any other solution now, so even though she had doubts in her heart, she could only endure it and didn't dare to quarrel with the little eunuch.
When the young eunuch returned to the Taiji Hall, he immediately found Wei Yan and asked, "Deputy Chief Steward, do I want to continue to contact Yingrui?"
Yes, Wei Yan has been promoted to deputy chief steward of the imperial court.
"No need," Wei Yan showed a cruel smile, "Take all the banknotes Yingrui gave you, as well as all the gold and silver jewelry, and come with me to the emperor to report Chen Fei. You don't need me to teach you what to say when the time comes!"
The young eunuch said, "Don't worry, Deputy Chief Steward. I know how to tell the Emperor."
Wei Yan immediately took the young eunuch to see the emperor. As soon as the young eunuch saw the emperor, he told him how the senior palace maid beside Concubine Chen bribed him and how she seduced him today.
"Your Majesty, I deserve to die. I originally wanted to just take the money and not do anything. After all, as a eunuch in the Taiji Palace, how could I betray Your Majesty for some petty gains and become the eyes and ears of the concubines in the harem?"
"But I never thought that the maid of the Concubine Chen would try to seduce me when she saw that I was not willing to take the bait. I was so scared that I ran away," the eunuch said with red eyes. "Your Majesty, I am a eunuch. Although the palace does not prohibit eunuchs and maids from eating together, eunuchs are eunuchs. Eating with maids is just for mutual warmth."
"But the concubine's maid actually grabbed my hand and put it on her chest. Who is she insulting? She knew that I was a eunuch and couldn't do anything, but she still used such a lewd method to seduce me. This makes me feel humiliated!"
The emperor's face was indescribably gloomy. He was of course aware of the water in the little eunuch's words, but so what?
It is not uncommon for concubines in the harem to give money to the eunuchs in front of the emperor, but as long as these eunuchs remember who their masters are, the emperor doesn't bother to care.
But the Concubine Chen's methods were too despicable. First, she used her own palace maids to win over the imperial physician, and now she is using her own palace maids to seduce the eunuchs in front of the emperor.
What does she think the palace is?
"The Concubine Chen will be demoted to a noble lady, her title will be revoked, and she will be moved out of the main hall of Chonghua Palace immediately. As for her maid named Yingrui, she will be beaten to death with sticks." The emperor was really angry this time, and the punishment for the Concubine Chen was naturally harsh.
"Your Majesty is wise." Wei Yan bowed his waist and lowered his head and said respectfully, not letting the emperor see the smug look in his eyes.
"No, this is impossible." Looking at Wei Yan who was announcing the decree, Concubine Chen said madly, "How could the emperor demote me to a noble? The emperor would not be so cruel to me. Wei Yan, tell me honestly, this is not true at all, right?"
"Wei Yan, please save the queen!" Yingrui knelt in front of Wei Yan, "For our sake..."
Before Yingrui could finish her words, she was blocked by two young eunuchs.
Wei Yan looked at Ying Rui with cold and disgusted eyes: "Drag her out and beat her to death with sticks. Shameless and cheap thing, she even seduced the eunuchs. How can such a cheap thing be allowed to live in this world?"
As soon as Wei Yan finished speaking, the two eunuchs immediately dragged Yingrui out. Yingrui looked at Wei Yan in despair and anger. She tried to struggle hard and accuse Wei Yan of being so cruel to her, but how could she possibly break free from the strength of the two eunuchs?
"Wei Yan, you are really a good person." If Concubine Chen couldn't see anything now, she would be really stupid.
