[R18] Harem chaos (NP High H) – “Harem Chaos (NP High H)” 35. The beauty in the palace is shocked and leaves the palace [English]
byThis year, there were eight girls in Qiguo’s draft, and the remaining seven were awarded the title of Cai Nv or Royal Daughter. However, Lin Xiner’s status was jumped up a level, she was awarded the title of “Beauty” and was granted the title of “Jixiang Palace”.
After the eight show girls, it was the turn of the three princesses.
Debis was granted the title of concubine and entered the Tianxiang Palace.
Ling Qiaoer was named “Beauty” and “Qiao”, and was given the title of “Jixiang Palace”.
Just as the father-in-law announced Xia Wanyuan’s name, a bell suddenly sounded outside the palace.
The sound of the bell came from a very far away place, but it was still clear to the ears. It was low and muffled, and people couldn’t help but feel shocked when they heard it.
There was a commotion among the show girls, and they were at a loss.
But Xia Wanan, who had grown up in the palace since childhood, also knew that this was the death knell, and something big must have happened in the palace.
Sure enough, someone ordered the father-in-law to run all the way to Jingyi Palace and shouted: “The Queen is dead!”
When they heard that the Queen passed away, some people were at a loss, some were shocked, and more people were full of doubts and looked around.
However, Lin Xiner, who was standing on one side with her head bowed, inadvertently showed a smile at the corner of her mouth, but the smile was fleeting. She immediately realized that she had lost her composure, lowered the corner of her mouth, and silently made a look of compassion.
The father-in-law shouted, suppressing the commotion of the crowd, and finally finished reading the imperial edict.
Xia Wannan was named “Beauty” and given the title of “Jixiang Palace”.
According to the rules, after the canonization, all the young masters will move to their respective palaces. However, due to the huge changes in the palace, the father-in-law ordered the young masters to temporarily return to the rooms in Jingyi Palace and not to move around at will, waiting for the decree.
Xia Wanan returned to the house and sat blankly, looking at the dark clouds outside the window, silently.
Although they are both beauties, Xia Wanan has no title. She is obviously one level lower than Ling Qiaoer, just like Lin Xiner.
Although she is not a person who strives for fame and wealth, she always feels a little confused in her heart.
Rufeng did not expect that Xia Wanyuan’s ranking would be the lowest, and did not react for a moment, but looked at Xia Wanyuan’s slightly sad profile.He nodded, he knew that he would not be wrong, no man would not be moved by her.
After he carefully inquired about what happened during the meeting and His Majesty’s questions, his handsome brows furrowed tightly.
He’s always gentle eyes showed a rare hint of ferocity. He clenched his fists tightly and slowly uttered three words in his mouth: “Queen Mother Duan!”
Looking at Rufeng’s eyes, Xia Wanbao was also startled. She knew that Rufeng felt a little unfair for her, but the look with faint murderous intent made her feel terrible.
The already depressing atmosphere in the house became even more solemn at this moment, like the weather outside the window that was about to rain heavily.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door.
A pair of big black eyes quietly peeked in from outside the door: “Sister Wan, can I come in?”
It turned out that Ling Qiaoer was bored and ignored the ban and secretly came over to visit her. When she saw it was her, Xia Wanyuan felt like a savior had come and welcomed her into the house.
“That Ruchen in my room doesn’t like to talk. It suffocates me to death.”
Ling Qiaoer was cheerful and lively, speaking freely, and instantly relieved the tension in the room.
“Do you know how the queen died?” When talking about this topic, Xia Wanyuan also became interested, but Ling Qiaoer suddenly paused, raised her head and glanced at Rufeng, and closed her mouth tightly.
Compared to Ling Qiaoer, Xia Wanan trusted Rufeng more, so she shook her head: “It doesn’t matter, Rufeng won’t talk nonsense.”
Ling Qiaoer rolled her eyes and then continued.
It turned out that the queen died in childbirth.And because the little prince had been holding it in his belly for too long, he had already expired when he came out of his mother’s womb. It could be said that he had two lives.
Ling Qiaoer spoke vividly, as if she was present at the time.
But then, she changed the subject: “I don’t know anyone in this harem. I thought I was going to be separated from my sister. I didn’t expect that we could still live together.”
The beauty does not have a separate palace, but the three newly-consecrated concubines live together in the Jixiang Palace.
Thinking of another “beauty”, Rufeng seemed to have something to say, but when he saw Ling Qiao’er present, he remained silent.
About an hour later, another decree came from the palace.
In order to mourn the queen and the sixth prince, the whole country was in mourning for two months.
The so-called national mourning was preceded by a prohibition on marriage. Emperor Qiming was the first to bear the brunt of this. All newly admitted concubines were sent out of the harem first, and then entered the palace at a later date after the period of national mourning.
Rufeng was a chamberlain in the palace and could not leave the palace with his master. However, the maidservants brought by the princesses did go out with him to serve him.
As soon as the order was given, all the ministries started to implement it vigorously and resolutely. Everyone was busy, and Lihua also returned to Xia Wansheng’s side to help pack her luggage.
The carriage leaving the palace was quickly prepared, and the three personal father-in-laws also came to see him off. They were reluctant to part with Rufeng’s earnest instructions.
The time had come, and the guards rushed the chamberlain aside. Rufeng suddenly thought of something, took another step forward, and bowed his head next to Xia Wan’s ear: “Princess, you have to be careful about that beauty Lin.”
“Qiao’er?”
“No, it’s that Lin Xiner.”
“She? What’s wrong?” Xia Wanyuan was also puzzled. Although she didn’t know how the beautiful ladies of Qi State arranged for her, I’m afraid she wouldn’t meet her if she left the palace like this. What should I be careful about?
“Because she…” Rufeng was saying as the heavy rain that had been holding back for a long time finally poured down and washed against the bluestone, making a crackling sound.
“Anyway, just be careful!” Rufeng roared, covering his head, rushed back under the eaves, and watched the carriage gradually move away from the palace gate.
Xia Wanan really didn’t expect that they would actually return to the post house again.
No matter when they first entered Beijing or now after being canonized, she and Ling Qiaoer’s status was always lower than that of Debis, so they were placed in the two wing rooms in Xiyuan just like before.
