Chapter 710 Secrets of Yonghe Palace

After hearing Yinzhen's plan, Yuan Chun showed an unbelievable look, widened his eyes and asked, "My lord, your empress is seriously ill this time, so you won't be afraid of her..."

"Don't be afraid!" Yuan Chun was interrupted by Yinzhen before he finished speaking, and he said coldly, "What's so scary about this king? As my mother-in-law, she no longer cares about my life or death. Why does the king care so much? If she doesn't poke at her most painful spot, I'm afraid she will fight against the king because of her sweetheart, the fourteenth. I can't find out how much power is behind her. .This Concubine Virtue hides too deeply, so I can only use this trick of catching the thief first. It's just...the king can't think of any other way, so I can only beg you."

Yuan Chun quickly shook his head: "Why does the prince use the word 'begging' to make a difference? As long as it is the order of the prince, Yuan Chun will obey everything."

The efficacy of the Shocking Cold Pill is really gratifying, Yuan Chun has recovered after only half a month of illness.On this day, she dressed appropriately and entered the palace again to greet Concubine De.

Seeing Concubine De this time, I don't know if it's because the weather is getting warmer and I can already feel the warm spring breeze, even at night I don't feel cold, Concubine De's complexion looks much better.But Yuan Chun knew in his heart that Concubine De was energetic and gentle, and it had nothing to do with the scenery outside the window, but Lord Kangxi had clearly ordered Yinti to finish the affairs at hand as soon as possible and return to Beijing as soon as possible.

In fact, Lord Kangxi originally meant that Yinti should stay at the border for a longer period of time. The Qing Dynasty paid such a high price for victory, so Yinti had to stay there for a longer period of time as a deterrent.But Emperor Kangxi's body was really in bad shape.Originally, Lord Kangxi's hands and feet were swollen, and he couldn't write with his right hand, so he replaced it with his left hand.Now even the face is starting to swell, and I don't think about eating and drinking every day, and I am getting more and more tired every day.So he wants Yinti to return to the capital as soon as possible, probably because it has something to do with the reserve position.Some rumors in the court said that Lord Kangxi planned to pass the throne to Yinti, and it was also related to his request that Yinti return to Beijing as soon as possible before finishing the matter in hand.

So Prince Yong became even more anxious, and couldn't wait to send Yuan Chun into the Yonghe Palace.

Yuanchun was still as generous and decent as ever. He was neither humble nor overbearing when meeting De Concubine, and his etiquette was good: "I am the Jia family, and I would like to pay my respects to Concubine De."

Although Concubine De did not stand up, she still said with a smile on her face: "Yuan Chun is coming? Get up quickly and give me a seat."

Yuan Chun thanked him and took his seat, and asked: "I have been ill for the past few days and have not been able to enter the palace. I don't know how the nanny is doing?"

Concubine De shook her head: "As soon as this person gets older, he has many problems and his physique is not as good as before. It's not good if he gets sick for a long time. It's not like you young people, no matter how sick you are. , just eat some soup and medicine."

For this point, Yuan Chun just said "yes" with a smile, so he didn't explain too much.After chatting with Concubine De about the daily life for a while, she began to get down to business.

While chatting, Yuan Chun began to look worried, and kept looking at the side hall of Yonghe Palace.It can be considered disrespectful to be distracted while chatting with Concubine De.Sure enough, Sister Hongfeng at the side saw Concubine De's expression of concern, and hurriedly reminded: "Gege, what are you looking at? Your empress was just asking you something!"

Yuan Chun showed embarrassment, stood up and saluted and apologized: "My lord, forgive me, my concubine... I was just curious, why is the attic of the west side hall still vacant?"

When Yuan Chun mentioned the west side hall of Yonghe Palace, Concubine De's expression froze, and then Hong Feng opened her mouth to help Concubine De, and asked, "Why did Ge Ge think of asking this?"

Yuan Chun hurriedly said: "It's nothing, it's just curiosity. Actually... hey... it's nothing, it's not important, it's all over anyway."

The most annoying thing when listening to people talk is that they have just started and won’t go on to say more. Especially the most common phrase is “Actually...it’s nothing”.

Concubine De didn't know if she was aroused by these words or what, but she was not happy: "It's good, don't say something ambiguous, just say what you want to say!"

Seeing that Concubine De was angry, Yuan Chun didn't dare to pretend to be mysterious anymore, but said: "Since the empress asks, then the concubine's body must be talked about. In fact, the concubine's body was not caught by the wind and cold when she stayed here that night, but ...It seems like something evil happened."

As soon as this sentence came out, Hongfeng sternly said: "Be careful with your words! This Yonghe Palace is the place where the tall and favored concubine Defei lives all the year round. Where did the evil spirits come from? Don't scare me here."

Yuanchun is well-educated and knows so much. How can he still not know that there are no evil spirits in this world?Even if there is, it is because people have ghosts in their hearts that they are afraid of the ghosts made up by others.

She curled her lips into a smile, and retorted: "Sister Hongfeng, don't lie to your ears like this. About the haunting of Yonghe Palace, people in the next palace have been spreading it for a day or two. However, although I have heard about it before, I have heard about it. I never washed it, if I didn’t see it that night, I still don’t believe it.”

Concubine De trembled when she heard the words: "Did you see it? What did you see? Is there any movement in the attic of the West Side Hall? Hurry up and tell me, don't play charades like this again!"

Seeing Concubine De's emotions so agitated, Yuan Chun sneered in his heart, and said to himself, so you really have ghosts in your heart!

Yuan Chun stabilized his mood, and slowly said: "That night, according to the order of the empress, I went to the bathing soup of the empress to take a bath. After the bath, I felt that the bath room was not far from the room where the concubine lived. , just relying on his youth and strength, he walked to his room with only a very simple underwear and his hair was not completely dry.

But on the way, someone suddenly patted the concubine on the shoulder.The concubine was startled when she turned her head, it was a woman with a waxy complexion, an oval face, but a pair of big eyes, a pair of eyebrows flying into the temples, her lips were as red as snow, but she seemed to have a cold personality, speaking Also faint.

She asked Qie Shen if she knew why the attic of the West Hall of Yonghe Palace had been locked and hadn't been opened for so many years, Qie Shen said she didn't know, so she laughed.That laughter sounded very scary at night, the concubine was frightened, and wanted to leave, but found that no matter how she walked, she was still at the door of the bathroom, and she was able to return to the room until the middle of the night.When the concubine's maid Baoqin found her, she said that her whole body was completely frozen, and even her hair was covered with frost.After that, the concubine became seriously ill.

The empress just said that I am young, in good health, and will be cured by just taking medicine for minor ailments. In fact, this is not the case at all. "
