PNB Chapter 195 Enraging Mingyu
Chapter 195 Enraging Mingyu
"Miss Mingyu, please go away. Concubine Chun is pregnant and it is impossible for her to see you." Yuhu said disdainfully.
After saying that, she waved her hand and called over a few eunuchs, ready to drive away Mingyu who came alone.
However, Mingyu did not back down. Instead, she shouted outside Concubine Chun's palace: "Concubine Chun, the Queen Mother asked me to bring you some tassels! You will know when you see them."
Mingyu's voice was clear and loud, echoing in the palace.
Concubine Chun, who was practicing calligraphy quietly in her room, was stunned when she heard the shout.
She was puzzled and thought to herself: "A spike? What spike?"
Although she knew that the tassel that Fu Heng had given her had long been destroyed, and she had no idea what the tassel Mingyu was talking about was, her inner curiosity and doubts made her finally decide to let Yuhu call Mingyu in.
After all, Mingyu came here alone, and this is Zhongcui Palace, not Changchun Palace.
If Mingyu had any intentions, she was confident that she had enough means to deal with it.
Maybe she could even die without a burial place.
Mingyu walked slowly into the room, bowed to Concubine Chun, and said softly, "Your servant greets Concubine Chun."
She looked up at Concubine Chun who was sitting in front of the desk, her eyes revealing an indescribable emotion.
Although Concubine Chun still maintained her gentle appearance, Mingyu couldn't help but feel an inexplicable disgust and fear in her heart.
This feeling confused her because she had always had a good impression of Concubine Chun.
However, when facing the current Concubine Chun, Mingyu's state of mind has undergone a drastic change.
She felt that Concubine Chun had been through something since she became estranged from the Empress, and it was as if she had become a completely different person.
Mingyu's mind was filled with memories of what happened in Changchun Palace just now.
Before Mingyu came to Zhongcui Palace, Wei Yingluo told Qingyun that this was because they and Concubine Chun had some hatred in the past, so they had this feeling.
"Mingyu, you can handle today's matter. I'd better not annoy the emperor in front of him. Besides, it's time for you to stand up!" Wei Yingluo pushed Mingyu forward with force.
Qingyun was eating a cucumber with gusto nearby. Hearing this, she quickly agreed, "Yes, Mingyu, when Yingluo marries into the Fucha Mansion, we will all have to listen to you!"
Wei Yingluo smiled, gently patted Mingyu's hand, and encouraged her:
"Mingyu, it's okay. Even if it doesn't work this time, we still have a letter! If we send it directly to the Yangxin Palace, everything will end. I will also let Xiao Quanzi meet you outside the Zhongcui Palace."
Mingyu was still hesitating.
Qingyun seemed particularly relaxed at this time. Now, because Yuan Chunwang was willing to acknowledge her as his sister, she would go to the Imperial Household Department or Empress Xian's Chengqian Palace from time to time.
At first, Qingyun always followed Yuan Chunwang closely and chatted with him in a rambling manner.
However, because she always followed Yuan Chunwang, she made too many enemies and had to change her strategy.
Now, she began to spread the word that she was Yuan Chunwang's sister.
Concubine Xian's personal maid Zhen'er was full of disgust towards Qingyun at first, thinking that she was also a woman who loved Yuan Chunwang.
But as time went by, Zhen'er discovered that Qingyun was actually Yuan Chunwang's biological sister, so her attitude towards her gradually improved.
Many people who liked Yuan Chunwang tried to please her. She now had more snacks in her bedroom than she could finish, and she lived a happy life.
But Mingyu turned around and knocked Qingyun angrily, "Humph! You are so comfortable, why don't you go to Zhongcui Palace to handle this matter?"
Qingyun blinked, scratched his head innocently, and seemed to be hesitant to speak.
It was Wei Yingluo who persuaded her, "Mingyu, didn't you say before that you hated Concubine Chun's pretentiousness from the bottom of your heart? Why don't you want to go when you have such an opportunity?"
"Yes, I do hate her. She's so good at disguising herself." Mingyu said angrily, but then her tone became a little weaker, "But... I don't know why, I'm also... afraid of her from the bottom of my heart."
Wei Yingluo couldn't help but feel nervous. She reached out and hugged Mingyu, consoling her earnestly, her tone was unusually gentle:
"Mingyu, as long as you succeed in following the plan today and defeat her, you will be truly fearless from now on."
Mingyu felt filled with grievance, her eyes were slightly red, and tears were welling up in her eyes.
However, despite this, she still mustered up her courage, nodded, gritted her teeth, and said firmly: "Okay, Yingluo, I will listen to you, I must defeat her!"
Hearing this, Wei Yingluo smiled happily, her face filled with joy. She felt sincerely relieved and happy for Mingyu's growth and progress.
"That's right! Mingyu, although I don't know what happened exactly, but according to my understanding, you must have had a grudge with Concubine Chun in your previous life, which led to your fear of her for no reason." Qingyun lowered his voice and spoke softly.
Then, she took another bite of the cucumber in her hand and muttered, "As long as you can successfully complete the task today, the grudge between you will be settled, and you will no longer be afraid of her!"
Mingyu nodded vigorously, indicating that she had made up her mind to handle the matter properly.
Wei Yingluo looked at Mingyu, her heart filled with relief.
Mingyu knew that she had to overcome her inner fear and face Concubine Chun bravely.
So she took a deep breath, took firm steps, and walked towards Zhongcui Palace alone.
After entering Zhongcui Palace, Mingyu respectfully paid her respects to Concubine Chun.
However, Concubine Chun seemed unaware of her arrival and remained focused on her calligraphy practice, not responding to Mingyu's greeting.
Mingyu had no choice but to keep greeting and wait quietly. As time passed, Mingyu's body gradually felt exhausted, but she still gritted her teeth and persisted.
Mingyu counted the time silently in her heart. She endured for about an incense stick of time. Then, for some reason, she suddenly felt a surge of courage in her heart. She stood up suddenly and said calmly:
"My Lady Concubine Chun, you must have been too preoccupied with your thoughts because you are pregnant with the prince. You are so forgetful that you even forgot to ask me to stand up."
Finally, Concubine Chun put down the pen in her hand, slowly turned her head, and looked at Mingyu coldly.
Seeing Mingyu's disdainful look, Concubine Chun's face changed instantly, revealing a fierce expression. She threw the pen in her hand to the ground and shouted loudly:
"How dare you! I haven't even given you permission to stand up, yet you dare to be so impertinent and disrespectful! Yu Hu, drag this ignorant servant out of here immediately!"
As expected, Concubine Chun was actually deliberately provoking Mingyu, taking advantage of her personality traits and trying to find an excuse to severely punish her.
