Story of Yanxi Palace: Fu Ying's banner will never fall

Chapter 129: Accomplice Yuan Chunwang

Seeing that the imperial concubine's men were stunned, Yuan Chunwang took the opportunity to snatch the bag of jewelry.

Concubine Gao's eyes widened in anger, and she shouted, "Oh, it's not your turn to interrupt me in what I'm doing!"

She didn't expect that Wei Yingluo would be alive and kicking so soon after being punished with thirty lashes. It seemed that the punishment was too light.

Wei Yingluo stood neither servile nor arrogant, looking at Concubine Gao in front of her, without any fear in her eyes.

She said softly, "My Lady Concubine, the Empress has sent a servant to invite My Lady Xian to the Changchun Palace."

Concubine Gao sneered, a look of disdain on her face.

She said in an arrogant tone: "Humph, if you make a mistake, you must be punished. I am the imperial concubine, I can punish you if I want to. Even if the queen comes in person, she can't stop me!"

As she spoke, she signaled to the men around her to snatch the package from Yuan Chunwang's hands.

"Wait a minute, Imperial Concubine...The Emperor is also waiting in Changchun Palace."

At this time, Li Yu appeared, panting, and he quickly spoke up to stop him.

Seeing that this matter had actually reached the ears of the Emperor, Concubine Gao stopped stirring, her face changed, and she began to ponder secretly in her heart.

If I were to be too aggressive, I would probably leave a bad impression on the Emperor.

Anyway, it was already a foregone conclusion that Concubine Xian had stolen the palace's property today, so she might as well give the Emperor some face. So she decided to let Concubine Xian go first.

She glared at Wei Yingluo and Yuan Chunwang fiercely, snorted coldly, flicked her sleeves, and walked away with a group of palace maids and eunuchs.

Looking at Concubine Gao's receding back, Wei Yingluo and Yuan Chunwang finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Li Yu was also a little scared and said, "Miss Yingluo, we have already agreed that this matter cannot involve me."

"Thank you, Eunuch Li Yu. You can rest assured. Besides, you are right. The Emperor is indeed waiting in Changchun Palace today. The Imperial Concubine will definitely not be able to trouble you. We at Changchun Palace will repay your kindness in the future."

Wei Yingluo blinked and smiled triumphantly.

Originally, the Queen was worried that Wei Yingluo would not be able to stop Concubine Gao, and wanted to be there in person. However, she was also worried that Concubine Xian would think she was trying to win her over, and she was feeling a headache and was in a dilemma.

At this time, the emperor happened to visit Changchun Palace, and Li Yu, who was standing nearby, came in handy.

Concubine Xian, who was still in shock, was supported by Zhen'er and came to Wei Yingluo. She said with a pale face, "Thank you Miss Yingluo, thank you... Queen, I will repay you for your kindness in the future, but I never get involved in the fights in the palace."

Wei Yingluo said respectfully: "Empress Xian, the Queen has no intention of winning over anyone. She is already the Queen and has a legitimate son, so there is no need to win over anyone.

In the past, it was only Concubine Chun who was worried about Concubine Gao's dominance. Although I am a humble servant, I can guarantee that the Empress just wants the concubines in the harem to live in peace, and has no other intentions. "

Yuan Chunwang, who was standing by, also quickly handed Concubine Xian's jewelry to Zhen'er, who nodded gratefully, "Thank you, eunuch."

Empress Xian heaved a sigh of relief. She looked at Yuan Chunwang, whose face was covered with wounds, and felt extremely sorry for him. She said to Zhen'er gently, "Zhen'er, take this eunuch to the Imperial Hospital to get some medicine."

Yuan Chunwang knelt down and bowed with dignity, saying gratefully: "I am Yuan Chunwang from Xinzheku, thank you for your grace, Empress Xian."

After saying that, Zhen'er took Yuan Chunwang to the Imperial Hospital.

It turned out that Wei Yingluo and Yuan Chunwang had already arranged this matter.

As early as half a month ago, Wei Yingluo brought another bag of steamed buns and ate them while chatting with Yuan Chunwang.

Wei Yingluo turned to look at Yuan Chunwang, and said sincerely and firmly: "Eunuch Yuan, I heard that you came to Xinzheku because you were framed. I have a chance to help you turn things around. Are you willing to give it a try?"

She knew that although Yuan Chunwang was hateful in the past, he also had his pity. She hoped to help him live this life safely, as a repayment for being brother and sister in the previous life.

Yuan Chunwang slowly lowered his head, the scene when he was framed by his master emerged in his mind, and a bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

He shook his head gently, then looked up at Wei Yingluo, his eyes flashing with complex light, and said softly: "Of course, why not?"

Hearing this, Wei Yingluo's face was filled with joy, and her smile was as bright and warm as the sun. She happily raised the steamed bun in her hand and gently touched it with Yuan Chunwang's steamed bun, as if she was raising a toast to celebrate.

Looking at Wei Yingluo with a bright smile in front of him, Yuan Chunwang felt an inexplicable sense of trust in his heart, and he unconsciously wanted to believe her.

He said to himself in his heart, "Even if she is a liar again, let her lie. Anyway, I am already at the lowest level in this palace. What else is there worth being robbed?"

At this moment, a subtle connection seemed to be established between the two.

Wei Yingluo carefully observed the changes in Yuan Chunwang's expression and was secretly happy in her heart. It seemed that he had begun to believe in her.

During this period of time, she frequently went to Xinzheku to contact him and finally made some progress.

At this moment, she struck while the iron was hot and quickly said, "Then after this is done, you must agree to one request of mine."

Yuan Chunwang sighed deeply and said helplessly, "Sure enough, there is no kindness without reason in the world."

Wei Yingluo smiled slightly and explained, "I just hope you can promise that you will never use any means to deal with the Queen and the princes in the future."

Hearing this, Yuan Chunwang was suddenly shocked and alarm bells rang.

How could she make such a request? Did she realize something? His eyes suddenly became sharp, his right hand tightly grasped half a steamed bun, and his left hand unconsciously clenched.

Just as he was about to reach out and grab Wei Yingluo's throat, he looked at the half steamed bun in his right hand. After hesitating for a moment, he decided to listen to what Wei Yingluo was going to say next.

So, Yuan Chunwang sneered and responded in a low voice: "Haha, who am I? Why would I harm the queen and the princes? I can't even touch the corners of their clothes."

There was obvious dissatisfaction on his face.
