Dafeng's Night Squad

Chapter 1589: Entanglement of love and hate (1)

Xu Qi ‘an handed the little mare to the palace guards and went straight to the Imperial Palace. He went to the forbidden area of the palace-the harem.

The harem used to be a forbidden place for men. Even the inner palace guards could not approach it. Only women and eunuchs could move around in the harem.

But now, for Xu Qi ‘an, the harem was a place where he could enter and leave as he pleased, and he did not have to worry about the anger of the next emperor.

Even if the next emperor was angry, he would be angry for another reason.

Speaking of which, with such a phenomenon of frequent changing of emperors, the harem will most likely become a mess. Fortunately, Emperor Yongxing has only been the Emperor for less than three months, and huaiqing is a woman.

Thinking of the beautiful girls in the harem, Xu Qi ‘an couldn’t help but think of this question.

It could be said very responsibly that if the world was at peace after Emperor Yongxing ascended the throne, then it would not be long before those concubines left behind by yuan jing would become Yongxing’s playthings.

In fact, he had already succeeded.

The cause of the fu Fei case was that Yongxing had drunk a little wine and was then invited by the young Palace maid of Fu Fei’s Palace to be a “guest,” which led to the follow-up Fu Fei case.

Xu Qi ‘an did not believe that Yongxing did not miss his father’s concubine.

In the harem, probably only the Empress Dowager and Noble Consort Chen, two existences with transcendent status, could avoid such a fate.

And if the one to ascend the throne this time was not Huai Qing, but the fourth prince, then the concubines in Yongxing’s harem, the young and beautiful, would certainly not be able to escape the old pattern and would become the new King’s Toys.

There were many similar examples in the history books. It was common for the Emperor to snatch his daughter-in-law, younger brother’s wife, sister-in-law, father’s woman and so on.

Soon, they arrived at jingxiu Palace. The old eunuch guarding the door was trembling with fear. His voice trembled as he said, ”

“Xu, Xu yinluo, please come to the inner hall for a while. This, this servant will go and inform the Grand consort …”

After the extraordinary warrior nodded, the eunuch lowered his head and led the way without even daring to breathe.

Xu Qi ‘an entered the inner hall. As soon as he sat down, the eunuch returned and bowed.

“The Imperial consort Dowager has invited Xu yinluo into the room to talk.”

Xu Qi ‘an immediately stood up. He didn’t let the eunuch lead the way. He walked around the front courtyard with ease and familiarity and came to the elegant courtyard where Consort Chen lived.

The yard was not big. There were a few bare trees on the south side and a flower bed next to the trees. On the west side was a small pond with turtles and koi fish. On the north side was a two-story building that was painted red.

The courtyard was empty. There were no Palace maids or eunuchs busy with work.

Xu Qi ‘an walked through the courtyard and the threshold. In the living room, she saw the mother and daughter sitting on the soft couch.

Other than a personal Palace maid of Lin ‘an, there was no one else in the room.

Consort Chen was as beautiful as ever. A gorgeous headdress was inserted in her complicated bun, and she was wearing a well-cut and exquisite brocade dress. She was in her forties, and there were faint crow’s feet at the corners of her eyes, but it did not damage her appearance.

Instead, it had a special, indescribable charm.

It was because of such good looks that Lin ‘an was able to be charming and affectionate on the inside, and Yongxing’s appearance was also good.

Lin ‘an was dressed in a red dress embroidered with gold thread. She was gorgeous and Noble. Her oval face was dignified, but her peach-shaped eyes were charming and affectionate. She was dressed exquisitely and luxuriously, and the room was full of splendor.

The mother and daughter’s eyes were red, as if they had been crying.

Seeing Xu Qi ‘an come in, hatred flashed in Consort Chen’s eyes. Lin’ an, on the other hand, was aggrieved and in pain. He looked at him softly, and turned his head away with wet eyes.

“Greetings, consort Dowager.”

Xu Qi ‘an bowed.

“I don’t dare!” Consort Chen took a deep breath, and with a cold face, she lightly said, ”

Xu yinluo looks down on the Central Plains. She can change the Imperial power with a word. I’m just a woman. I can’t afford such a big gift from her.

“Why is consort tai looking for me?” Xu Qi ‘an asked bluntly.

Consort Chen did not speak and glanced at Lin an.

Lin an pursed his lips and didn’t say a word.

Consort Chen’s eyes suddenly became sharp and she stared at her fiercely. Lin ‘an’s tears poured out and he sobbed,

“Ningyan, w-why are you doing this to my Royal brother?”

Tears rolled down her face.

She was like a little girl who had been betrayed and abandoned by her true love. She could do nothing but cry helplessly. She was weak and pitiful.

Consort Chen also began to cry. As she cried, she wiped her tears with her handkerchief.

“When you were still a copper Gong, Lin ‘an treated you with her heart and lungs and pleaded with the previous emperor for you. Gold, silver and medicinal pills were not stingy as long as they could be given. Bengong still remember the scene when she asked the previous emperor for medicinal pills to treat your injuries.

“Who would have thought that in the blink of an eye, you would treat her like this. Your Xu family also had a difficult time in the past, but now that you have made a name for yourself, you have abandoned the person who had treated you sincerely. Is your heart made of stone?”

When Lin ‘an heard this, his heart felt like it was being twisted by a knife.

Consort Chen sobbed,

“Bengong knows that Yongxing’s power is gone and does not ask for anything. On the account of Lin an, let us mother and son leave. Bengong knows that you will say that you can look after Yongxing and protect his life.

“But huaiqing has endured for many years and is cruel and merciless. He will definitely not let Yongxing go, and you will not stay in the capital often. Even if she killed Yongxing in secret, what can you do?”

As she spoke, she cried, ”

“I only have one son. If he dies, I don’t want to live either.”

She didn’t cry for Xu Qi ‘an, but for Lin’ an.

This move didn’t work on Xu Qi ‘an, but it was a blow to Lin’ an. After all, it was impossible to cut off the feelings of blood and flesh. Looking at his mother, who was usually of noble status, being so humble, Lin ‘an looked at Xu Qi’ an with tears in his eyes.
