  Chapter 6 Do not talk about state affairs

  As Concubine Qi came out of the cold palace and was named Concubine Qi De, the situation in the palace became treacherous.

   Every day, palace maids and eunuchs are rode to death for inexplicable crimes.

  Li Qing no longer went to the Liyuan to see the maids, but poured night incense, delivered meals, and delivered night incense barrels on time every day.

  The other cold palace eunuchs are not talking too much, and rarely talk about the secrets of the palace.

   Whenever an **** couldn't hold back and wanted to say a few words, Wang Li would always interrupt the method with the eight characters: "Don't talk about state affairs, be cautious in your words and deeds."

  Li Qing is glad that he is an **** in the Lenggong Palace, and he did not leave with Concubine Qi. The eunuchs and maids who died the most now are the eunuchs and maids of the various concubines.

  Even the eunuchs in the dining room were executed a lot.

  Lenggong and Shang Wujian are the only places where the two survived.

   Can't go to the Liyuan to see the maids, Li Qing's accumulated anger can't be vented, so he can only give it to the Empress Dowager.

  Before getting up in the morning, Li Qing added the ritual of cursing the old hag a hundred times.

   "Old witch, die for me!"

  After half a year, the weird situation finally spread to the cold palace.

  This night, a pair of three sisters and concubines were thrown into limbo at the same time.

   It is said that the three sisters failed to serve the Holy Majesty comfortably, and the Majesty Longyan was furious, and demoted the three of them to the limbo that night.

  The second day after the three sisters entered the cold palace, the empress dowager reprimanded the three concubines Hua, Fei, and Yu for losing their manners in front of the saint, and beat the three concubines to the cold palace.

   Hereafter.

   Almost every few days, a concubine was thrown into limbo.

   Half a year later, the Leng Gong was overcrowded. It was the sixth year of Taikang, and Li Qing was seventeen years old.

   "Meals are delivered, remember, no one is allowed to steal food, if the concubine is picky, throw the pot to the dining room, they cook the food."

  During meal delivery time, Wang Li did not forget to give instructions to everyone.

  The situation is too complicated. Now the concubines in the cold palace are divided into two factions, one is the emperor, and the other is the empress dowager. Neither faction can be offended. Whoever wins in the future, all the concubines of the winning side may be out of the cold palace.

   Can't afford to mess with it.

  Since the three sisters entered the cold palace, when Li Qing and other eunuchs delivered meals, they followed the principle of equal treatment.

   No longer give the concubine extra meals alone, and no longer send cold leftovers.

   "Why are these three dishes again, bang." Concubine Tong looked at the food in annoyance, and slapped the chopsticks on the table.

"Back to Madam, I have asked the eunuchs in the dining room many times, saying that Madam is not full enough to eat, and asked them to order more dishes, but those eunuchs ate all the inside and outside, and they didn't give me face at all. They even slapped me, Madam look." Li Qing held his reddish left cheek, and there was a clear palm print on his left cheek.

   "Worthless things." Concubine Tong saw that Li Qing's left face did have a palm print, cursed, and ate it.

   After delivering the meal, he returned to the duty room, and Li Qing wiped off the palm print on his left face after getting wet.

  …

   In the seventh year of Taikang, the Empress Dowager was still alive, and it was said that her body was very strong.

  The Holy Majesty could not wait any longer, and intensified the power struggle with the Empress Dowager.

   Fortunately, the Leng Palace can no longer house more concubines, and the new field of power struggle has not affected the Leng Palace.

   But on this day, Li Qing was beaten.

  The one who beat Li Qing was Concubine Chu, a third-rate expert in martial arts, belonging to the lineage of the Empress Dowager.

  The reason for the beating was simple. Concubine Chu thought that the Yexiang bucket was not cleaned, so she asked Li Qing to lick it clean. Li Qing didn't blame Zhang Yong for licking feces, so she decisively said that she would wash it herself.

Then.

  Concubine Chu kicked Li Qing's **** and sent him flying into the courtyard.

   "Damn it, birds of a feather flock together, people form groups, whoops, my ass..."

   "The **** is here, it's here." In the dormitory, Zhang Yong rubbed Li Qing's **** vigorously with ointment.

   "How can this martial arts master be so capable? With just one kick, it feels like my **** is not my butt." Li Qing cried out in pain.

   It's not the pain in the buttocks, but the pain in the whole body, and the buttocks have long since lost consciousness.

   It's never too late for the **** to take revenge. Li Qing took note of Concubine Chu's kick!

  His body is too weak, if he has formally practiced Roushui Qiduanjin, he will not be like this.

  Why didn't Li Qing practice Roushui Qiduanjin?

   It's not because the old witch is not dead.

  Li Qing's resentment could not help but transfer to the Empress Dowager... Old witch, die to me!

   "This injury, I will lie in bed for at least a month, and you will take care of this month's work." Li Qing, who cried out in pain, did not forget to order.

   "I received twelve lashes from Empress Lu the year before last, and I only lay down for a month. You..." Zhang Yong was not happy.

   "I'm weak."

  …

   Taikang nine years.

  The empress dowager is still in good health, and receives foreign ministers on time every day; Emperor Taikang often reports illness, and occasionally does not go to the morning court.

  The atmosphere in the palace became increasingly tense.

  The eunuchs and maids retreated to their bedrooms as soon as they finished their work every day.

  The night watch guards were trembling and did not dare to squint all night.

  The eunuchs of Shangwujian were divided into two groups, one group was guarded in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and the other group was guarded in the Palace of Compassion and Peace.

   The cold palace is always full.

   This day.

  A group of eunuchs came outside the cold palace with imperial edicts.

   "The emperor has a decree that Concubine Qi De loses her virtue, she withdraws her title as Concubine De, demotes her to Jieyu, and puts her in the cold palace immediately."

  After the decree came down, the palace seemed to be revived. The eunuchs whispered to each other and went out. The maids danced and practiced music in the Liyuan in groups.

   "Three years, three years!"

   "The dancing posture of the sisters is still the same!"

  Li Qingyi was chewing candied fruit under a tree in the pear orchard.

  Concubine Qi entered the cold palace for the second time with a big belly, and brought a personal maid with her, so Li Qing didn't need to serve her personally.

   Three months later, Concubine Qi gave birth to a prince in the cold palace, who was also the eldest son of Emperor Taikang.

  On the day the eldest son of the emperor was born, Concubine Lu Gui stayed in the cold palace and took away the eldest son of the emperor.

  Concubine Qi never even saw the eldest son of the emperor.

   "Xiao Lizi, tell me, will I still have a chance to see the emperor?" During Concubine Qi's confinement period, Li Qingshou stood by and waited on her, and was often questioned by Concubine Qi.

   "Yes, Your Majesty is still young." Li Qing replied lightly.

   "That's right," Concubine Qi was stunned, and said with firm eyes, "I also want to live well."

   Into the night.

  Lenggong was on duty, Li Qing tossed and turned, unable to sleep anyway.

  He has insomnia again.

   "How can this old hag endure so much?"

   "I cursed from the fifth year of Taikang to the ninth year of Taikang. I am useless for nothing, and I live harder and harder."

   "And Emperor Taikang, too, is too disappointing. After several years of fighting, he has completely defeated his wife."

  Li Qing tossed and turned on the bed, thinking about it, the Empress Dowager is eighty-four this year.

  To grow old without dying is to be a thief.

   "Yongzi, I'm suffering from insomnia again, the previous method of cursing people doesn't work anymore."

   "Huhuhu." Zhang Yong snored and went to bed early.

   "Let me tell you, little Li, why do you always want to curse others, so you can't hope that they will be better. A sage has a saying, repay evil with kindness." Zhang Li raised his mouth half asleep and half awake.

   A word awakens the dreamer.

Li Qing was stunned, and immediately read the words of congratulations silently: "I wish the Empress Dowager good health, a long life of a hundred years, good luck as in the East China Sea, a longer life than Nanshan, the same life as the sun, and the same age as the sky. Enter reincarnation and enjoy longevity..."

   While reading the congratulatory speech, Li Qing had already fallen asleep like a cow. This night, Li Qing fell into and out of insomnia.

   Half a month later.

  Sudden news came from the Compassionate Ning Palace that the Empress Dowager fell off the bed in her sleep and suffered multiple fractures in her body.
