Chapter 219: The Qin Family

r parents, or else you'll be facing the family law again." Xiao Changyue shook her head, her words full of reproach, yet her face betrayed a hint of delight.Xiao Yunqin pouted, quite dissatisfied, mut...The palace maid who led Qin Luoyan stopped and turned back, unable to help but ask, "Qin girl, do you recognize those people"

“……” Qin Luoyan frowned, then shook her head, "I don't know them. I must have mistaken them. Upon closer inspection, they weren't the people I knew."

By the way, are those the beauties participating in this attack The beauties really do look good. 。“Hearing her say this, the maidservant let out a snort and covered her mouth with a laugh, “Miss Qin, you’re so interesting. You say those female attendants are pretty, but in my opinion, Miss Qin is much prettier than all of them.” 。"

“Uh…” Qin Luoyan didn't expect that the palace maids in Yonghe Palace would actually compliment her on her looks. It seemed like they weren't all on good terms with the Empress. But thinking about it, if they were close to the Empress, they wouldn't be assigned to serve someone like her. >>> 。"Miss Qin, let's go quickly. If we're late, the Empress will be angry." 。“The palace maid said this, leading her forward.” 。In the distance, several beautiful women were laughing and walking forward. One of them looked in Qin Luoyan's direction, her eyebrows furrowed, she let out a surprised cry, but then shook her head as if she couldn't believe what she saw. 。"Xin'er, what are you looking at" The woman walking beside her leaned over and saw Qin Xin'er staring blankly, so she asked. 。Qin Xiner was startled and turned her head, smiling and saying, "It's nothing, I just saw that woman dressed in fine clothes over there who looked very much like my sister. But it must have been my mistake, my sister has passed away for a long time." 。"Oh… are you talking about your older sister who got engaged to someone before marriage, ruined her reputation, and then committed suicide" Zhou Qin blinked her eyes and asked. 。The Zhou and Qin families could be considered old acquaintances, but the head of the Zhou family had always been a civil servant in the capital, while the head of the Qin family was a general stationed at a border city. The two families didn't often get together. 。After the Qin family returned to Beijing last year, the two families began to visit each other frequently. Qin Xiner and Zhou Qin, both around the same age, naturally became familiar with each other. In addition, they were both selected as candidates for the imperial beauty pageant this time, making them even closer than others. 。As for the Qin family's affairs, Zhou Qin knows more than most. 。Qin Xiner nodded, "Yes, it's my third sister who has shamelessly brought disgrace upon our Qin family." 。Okay, let's not talk about her anymore. It just brings down everyone's mood. She's already passed away, so there's no point in bringing it up again. 。In the center of Meilin, small square tables were placed on the ground covered with fallen leaves. Behind each table was a thick rug to keep warm, and there were cushions on the stalls. At this moment, many people had already taken their seats behind the small tables, sitting together with familiar people, gathered around the table, eating snacks and chatting. 。Where there are many women, it is never deserted. All sorts of gossip can make them chat for half a day unknowingly. 。The Empress sat on the main seat, with an empty position beside her, closer to the center. This spot usually belonged to Fu Ziheng. Several of Fu Ziheng's beloved concubines sat on either side of the Empress, chatting warmly with her. Anyone looking at them would think they were sisters, and the entire banquet hall was filled with a joyous atmosphere. 。When Qin Luoyan arrived at the venue, she glanced at the small square tables around her and walked straight to a corner seat. At such a flamboyant banquet, she didn't want to come in the first place. Even though she was required to attend now, she didn't want to draw too much attention to herself. Furthermore, Qin Xiner was also here... 。As for the Qin family, Qin Luoyan no longer wanted to have anything to do with them. However, some things were unavoidable. She had once thought that within this Fengqicheng, she would sooner or later encounter someone from the Qin family. But, like an ostrich, she always hoped that she could hide for a day, one day at a time. The more she hid, the calmer she would be. 。

As soon as she sat down, she saw the Empress looking over. The Empress seemed displeased with her shrinking back into a corner and ordered an old maidservant to come over and take Qin Luoyan away.

Qin Luoyan followed Lao Momo to the Empress's presence. She bowed respectfully to the Empress and all the concubines, before the Empress began introducing her to the crowd. 。"This is Lady Qin, the concubine that King Wuxuan is preparing to marry. How do you like her She's quite beautiful, isn't she It's no wonder even King Wuxuan couldn't escape the charms of a beauty like her." 。"The Empress chuckled and teased, " 。Several consorts also nodded in agreement, praising Qin Luoyan. Not to mention anything else, with King Wuxuan's status, no consort dared not flatter him. Besides, there wasn't much secrecy in the palace originally. The Empress' disciplining of Qin Luoyan was actually a bargain struck by King Wuxuan. All the concubines in the palace who had some real power knew about this, and they also knew that Qin Shi was someone treasured by King Wuxuan. With no conflicting interests, there would be no one intentionally trying to make things difficult for or offend her. 。"Hey, you guys say, is this Qin Shi beautiful, or is our Wei Guifei more beautiful" The Empress heard the compliments from the audience and jokingly asked this. 。All the concubines were taken aback, looking at each other. Most of them smiled awkwardly, and no one dared to speak freely. The clever ones all knew that this was clearly a deliberate provocation by the Empress to sow discord between Qin and Wei Guifei. After all, wouldn't beautiful women be most unwilling to see someone prettier than themselves These two women were both beautiful, so as long as someone with ill intentions stirred things up, sparks would fly immediately. 。However, there was also someone who didn't know how to behave. A woman sitting on the far right of the empress seemed to have been unable to interject when the other concubines spoke earlier. Now that everyone was speechless, she immediately opened her mouth. Perhaps she wanted to attract attention, or perhaps she wanted to flatter Consort Wei. Whatever the reason, as soon as she spoke, she said: "Of course, it has to be our Consort Wei who is the most beautiful! Consort Wei is the emperor's most beloved concubine after all. She even gave birth to a princess for the emperor this time. Anyone favored by the emperor must naturally be the most beautiful." 。As soon as she spoke, the other concubines were taken aback. However, they immediately looked at her with a mixture of sympathy and schadenfreude. 。Two close friends conspiring whispered to each other, "No wonder she's still just a maid after all these years in the palace. With such foolishness, it's a miracle she's managed to survive this long." 。"Indeed, she has appeased Wei Guifei but offended both the Empress and Qin Shi." 。Upon hearing the words of the talented scholar, Qin Luo's face darkened, and she immediately looked at Wei Guifei, who was seated on the Empress's left. 。As a woman in her twenties, Wei Guifei was at the peak of her beauty. She was stunningly beautiful, and her gentle eyes and demeanor added to her allure. It would be impossible for any man not to find her attractive. 。But, if Concubine Wei was truly as fragile as she appeared, how could she possibly reach the position of Noble Consort in this treacherous imperial palace, and safely give birth to children for the Emperor If you enjoyed "Fu Zi Mo Qin Luo Yan," please copy the following URL and share it with your QQ, WeChat, or Weibo friends.
