When Concubine Mei heard movement outside, she closed the door of the side courtyard and walked out of the Mei courtyard.

Looking at the guards who had gathered in a circle, and the queen who was standing there with a smug face, Concubine Mei frowned and glared at each other.

"What kind of wind is blowing the queen mother today, the concubine is here?" Concubine Mei said mockingly.

Looking at her foxy smiling face, the queen was even more angry.

The age difference between the two is obviously not far apart, but the face is very different, if she hadn't followed the lord of the country since she was a child and was his wife, I'm afraid this fox girl would have been the queen a long time ago.

"Hmph, you know what you've done yourself!"

The queen roared, then turned to the leader of the Imperial Guards and said, "Go in and search!" The adulterer must be found. ”

Concubine Mei exploded when she heard this, but she didn't yell and shout that she was wronged.

"Wait!"

She stopped the Imperial Forest Army in a calm tone, then walked up to the queen and smiled, "The queen is so sure that there are other men in my house?" ”

"Phew, slut! If you're clean, are you afraid I'll let people go in and search for it? ”

Concubine Mei was not angry at her such a vicious tone, "If the queen can't find the adulterer you said, the reputation of the concubine will be ruined by the queen's mother, and it doesn't matter if the concubine is a concubine, but you insist that the emperor is a cuckold, if the emperor knows about it, what can it be?" ”

"Someone has seen it with their own eyes, and you still want to quibble? You're procrastinating here, could it be that you want to give the adulterer time to escape? ”

Seeing that the queen mother was so persistent, Concubine Mei automatically got out of the way.

"Queen Mother, please!"

Seeing Concubine Mei suddenly and generously give way, the queen mother was a little worried again.

Xindao: Could it be that the adulterer is gone? But this is impossible, my people have already surrounded this, and he can't escape. Is he deliberately afraid of me? I won't fall for her.

"Humph!"

The queen led the Imperial Forest Army into the Plum Courtyard.

The subordinates in the Mei Courtyard were so frightened that they hid to the side, allowing the guards to rummage through the boxes and cabinets to find someone.

After a while, the guards all returned to the compound.

The queen asked the head of the Imperial Guards who came by, "How is it?" Did you find it? ”

The Ranger shook his head, "No! ”

The Guards who had been looking elsewhere also returned, all shaking their heads to indicate that they had not been found.

"How so?" The queen was a little unconvinced.

She glared at the palace maid who had come to her to report the news, and saw the palace maid, her eyes signaling to the locked courtyard door on the right side.

The queen smiled when she saw it, "There is still a place that I haven't searched!" ”

"Open the lock!"

The queen pointed to the locked gate in the side courtyard and said to Concubine Mei.

Concubine Mei replied with a pale face, "That's what the emperor allowed me to lock." ”

Hearing this, the queen was even more angry.

On this side of the Plum Courtyard is the second prosperous courtyard in addition to the main palace of the Empress. And there is also a side courtyard here that the queen's palace does not have, where there are thousands of herbs and flowers, and a few pear blossom trees specially transplanted from the outside, making it like a little fairyland, which makes her very envious.

But this courtyard is a private courtyard given to Concubine Mei by the lord of the country, and no one is allowed to enter without permission, even if he has to agree to Concubine Mei. can be described as a preference for Concubine Mei.

"Bastard, the entire Dong'an Kingdom belongs to the lord of the country, and the backyard is under the jurisdiction of the queen, so you don't need your permission to enter and exit the palace!"

The queen looked at the Imperial Guards on the side, "Why don't you go and pry the door open, if the adulterer escapes, you will all die!" ”

The Guards were terrified when they heard this, after all, if the lord of the country was confirmed to be a cuckold, and they didn't catch the adulterer, it would definitely be a dead end.

The captain of the Imperial Forest Army apologized to Concubine Mei and said, "I offended Concubine Mei!" ”

Concubine Mei glared at the queen fiercely at this time.

The queen looked at her nervously, thinking that she had guessed correctly, and she didn't know how proud she was.

Fortunately, Ruorou didn't follow her at this time because of her stomach inconvenience, otherwise it would have been bad when the Imperial Forest Army went in and saw Fang Xue.

As long as Ruorou didn't come over in person, Concubine Mei wouldn't have to worry about Fang Xue being discovered, because she had a little disguise on her face, and she wouldn't be so easily recognized.

At this time, Qianyi had also come to the path in front of the Mei Courtyard and collided with Huaiyi, who also came over.

"Yo, isn't this the second sister? Where are you going in such a hurry? ”

When Huaiyi was bored in the room, he heard about this side of the matter, so he happily came over to see the excitement.

Looking at Qianyi's sweaty appearance, she didn't know how proud she was.

If Qianyi's mother is confirmed to have committed adultery, then Qianyi will not be a princess, and the second sister who oppresses her like this will fall off the altar and become a joke in the mouths of the people of Dong'an.

"I don't have time to talk to you, get out of the way!" Qianyi's good temper became cold after facing Huaiyi's mocking gaze.

It was the first time for Huaiyi to see her gaze like this, and he was so frightened that he took a step back.

Qianyi ignored her and continued to walk forward.

Seeing Qianyi leaving, the slave maid beside Huaiyi said, "It turns out that the second princess has such a terrible temper!" ”

Even Huaiyi was a little unrecognizable, this second sister who has always been gentle and deceitful.

Such a big thing in the palace, of course Chen Xuan, who was in the Shizi Mansion outside, heard it.

Now he and Concubine Mei can be said to be in the same boat, and they can't really ignore it.

"Quick, prepare the horse to enter the palace." Chen Xuan said to the subordinates next to him.

The news in the palace can be said to be very popular, and in addition to the common people, the ministers have heard it.

If it turns out that the lord of Dong'an is really cuckolded, it will be a big joke.

The lord of the country, who was originally discussing state affairs with an old minister in the imperial study, finally found the news at this time.

He was so angry that he immediately led people to Meiyuan.

He wouldn't believe that Mei Yuan would steal people behind his back, but this matter had been spread all over the city, and he naturally had to find out.

The locks in the side courtyard of the plum courtyard were forcibly opened, and the guards rushed in and began to search everywhere inside.

It was the first time for the queen to enter the renovated side courtyard, which was so beautiful that it was like a paradise, which made her eyes red.

All other places were searched, but no one was found for the queen.

Now only the middle cabin remains.

Just as the leading Imperial Forest Army was about to go over to search, Concubine Mei stopped.

"You can't search here!"

The queen saw that she was nervous, so she said, "Get out of the way!" ”

"No, you'll disturb her rest."

The queen thought she was talking about the adulterer, and said with a mocking face, "What? Just finished running errands? ”

It didn't sound good, everyone else could hear what it meant, and they all blushed.

At this time, the lord of Dong'an also came.

"Queen, what are you doing?" As soon as he entered, the lord of the country scolded the queen angrily.

"Your Majesty, you came just in time, Concubine Mei actually stole people here behind your back."

As soon as these words came out, everyone's faces turned pale, is this queen brainless? He actually spoke to the lord of the country like this in public.

"Smack!" With a bang, the five finger prints on the queen's face turned red.

She looked at the man in front of her in disbelief, "Why did you hit me?" You're supposed to hit this slut! ”

Let's not talk about whether Concubine Mei stole or not, it was already a big mistake for the queen to make this matter known all over the city. The face of the lord of a country was lost by her.

Seeing that the lord of the country was coming, Concubine Mei finally put away her strong face and cried sadly.

"Woooooooooooo The lord of the kingdom is the master of the concubine! ”

When the lord of the country saw her pair of I saw pity, his heart throbbed.

"What's wrong with Concubine Ai?" He went over and helped Concubine Mei and asked with concern.

"The queen mother suddenly took the Imperial Forest Army to surround my plum courtyard, and slandered the concubine for stealing people, this is a great insult, let the concubine see people in the future! Woo woo woo ...... "Concubine Mei cried on the body of the lord.

"Don't cry, concubine!"

"Your Majesty, you can't indulge her like this, it's about the face of Dong'anguo." The queen said angrily.

The lord glared at the queen, "Enough! You don't have a face, I still have a face. ”

This scene was seen by Qianyi and Huaiyi, who had just come in, and the two had different mentalities.

Qianyi finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that her mother was fine.

Huaiyi was furious when she saw her mother's beaten face. She ran over and pointed at Concubine Mei and said, "Father, it's too much for you to favor one over the other, no matter what the queen mother says, she is also the mother of a country, you can't treat her like this because of a slut." ”

"Smack!" Another bang.

Huaiyi also had five finger prints on his face.

"Who are you scolding sluts? As a princess of a country, she has no education at all, queen, this is the good daughter you taught? ”

The queen knew at this time that the lord of the country was protecting Concubine Mei, but she really couldn't swallow this breath.

"You protect this slut so much that you can even tolerate him cuckolding you? Then it doesn't matter if I, the queen, do it or not. The queen said angrily.

When the lord heard her words, his face became even more ugly.

"Okay, I'll let you die!"

He lowered his head to Concubine Mei in his arms and asked, "Who is inside?" ”

Concubine Mei replied while crying, "It's my cousin from my hometown!" It's the one who came to the palace to see me some time ago, and I talked to you. ”

In order to facilitate the explanation of being bumped into in the future, Concubine Mei told the lord of the country in advance as soon as possible.

"You're lying!" The queen said disbelievingly.

Her slave maid obviously said that it was a man's voice, how could she become a woman, it must have been Concubine Mei who said this in order to cover it up.

Concubine Mei saw that the queen still didn't believe it, so she said, "The concubine really didn't do anything to be sorry for the emperor, if you don't believe it, you can find someone to go in and have a look." ”

"However, be careful, my cousin has a disease that can infect people."

Hearing this, the lord of Dong'an glanced at the father-in-law beside him, and the father-in-law immediately went inside.

The father-in-law covered his nose with a handkerchief and slowly approached the bed.

Sure enough, I saw a woman sleeping there with red beans on her face.

Seeing the acne marks on the woman's face, the father-in-law was so frightened that he retreated again and again, afraid that he would be infected.

Seeing his father-in-law running out in a hurry, everyone outside had ugly faces.

"Return to the Lord! There was indeed only one woman inside. And his face was covered with red spots, he must be sick. ”

Hearing this, the queen still didn't believe it, "No!" How so. It must be that this slut is in collusion with his father-in-law! ”

"That's enough, Father-in-law Chu has been with me since he was a child, how can he help others."

Seeing the lord of the country so angry, the queen knew that she was cold this time.

She sat on her knees on a plank with her legs limp, her expression sad and her eyes blank.
