Chapter 014: The Holy Maiden of Troubled Times (13) Punishment
"Has Hongu become beautiful?" Concubine Shu's eager voice seemed a little abrupt in the quiet of the night.
Zhiqin hesitated: "Niangniang...... It's still as beautiful as ever. ”
Concubine Shu understood the subtext, and her heart sank: "Why is this happening?" Quick, Zhiqin, scoop some water and pour it on the face of the palace, maybe the soaking time is too short......"
"yes-ah!!"
The corner of Zhiqin's eyes inadvertently swept a touch of dark embroidered gold brocade clothes, and he fell to his knees in fright. The two little palace maids who came with them also reacted, and their legs were weak with fright.
"Slaves and maids see Your Majesty."
In the midst of this flurry of bowing, Concubine Shu turned her head consciously and met Emperor Yan's incomparably gloomy eyes.
Concubine Shu's heart "chuckled", and the secret way was not good. But the instinctive reaction of the body is to plunge into the spring and completely submerge itself.
Anyway, it's coming, and the exposure is exposed, so why not seize the opportunity to soak for a while, maybe you can become beautiful.
Otherwise, wouldn't it be a bamboo basket for water!
Emperor Yan, who understood Concubine Shu's thoughts, laughed angrily, and tossed by her with a cold expression.
It wasn't until Concubine Shu surfaced to ventilate that Emperor Yan ordered in a cold voice: "Invite Concubine Shu up." ”
Several little eunuchs immediately pounced on them and pulled up the unwielding concubine.
The guards who came with him had long been looking at their noses and noses, and their heads were bowed, trying to reduce their sense of presence.
Concubine Shu couldn't care about being embarrassed at the moment, and explained eagerly: "Your Majesty...... Concubines...... It was wrong for the concubine to come to Mingyue Palace without permission, but the concubine's intentions were good...... The concubine just wanted to be more beautiful and make His Majesty feel happier. I beg Your Majesty to have mercy on your concubines with good intentions. ”
Emperor Yan walked over without a trace of emotion, and pointed his finger at Concubine Shu's chin: "Since it is a beauty spring, why is the spot on the tip of your nose still there?" I told you that the beauty of the saint is extraordinary, and you are delusional all day long! I see that you have never become beautiful, but you are very bold! ”
"Where is the Holy Maiden? What are you going to do to the Holy Maiden? Emperor Yan turned his hand and pinched Concubine Shu's neck, and gradually exerted his strength.
Concubine Shu's face turned red, and she didn't know if she was pinched or ashamed.
"Concubine...... The concubine just wanted to soak in the beauty spring, so she gave the saint a little drug. Didn't do anything to the saint, she ...... at the moment Ahem...... It should be ...... rest."
"You stupid woman is so bold! The Holy Maiden is gone! Emperor Yan gritted his teeth, "If the saint has any mistakes, I want you to be buried with me!" ”
Concubine Shu was about to run out of breath, and while going to break Emperor Yan's hand, she defended: "The concubine didn't do anything...... Ahem...... It's not about the concubines......"
Seeing that Concubine Shu did not admit it, Emperor Yan was so angry that he smoked, and the saintess who affected Guozuo, the saintess he longed for so much, disappeared because of the stupid woman in front of him! Emperor Yan was evil for a while, and he was about to strangle Concubine Shu to death.
"I'm here."
A crisp and pleasant sound wafted from behind the diagonal background.
Everyone turned their heads, and saw the saint sitting on the glazed tiles of the roof, dressed in blue as if blending in with the night, and her pale face made the moon look much darker.
Emperor Yan let go of Concubine Shu, looked up with joy and said, "Why is the holy woman sitting here?" It's okay, I'm so worried just now, it's okay to be okay! ”
Bolan smiled lightly: "I was almost fascinated by the drug, so I had to come out to breathe." ”
The tone was understated, but Emperor Yan heard the voiceover, his face suddenly darkened, and he glanced at Concubine Shu gloomily.
"The saints have been wronged, don't worry, Lone will punish them severely!"
Bolan was still hesitating to ask for a favor for Concubine Shu. took a risk to fascinate the people of Mingyue Palace, just to soak in a beauty bath, but not to mention that he didn't become beautiful, he had to be heavily punished...... This whole thing made Bolan feel confused and funny, but she didn't get angry.
But Concubine Shu glared at Bolan fiercely at this time, her eyes were resentful and unwilling.
Bolan immediately dispelled her thoughts and said lightly: "Okay." ”
Ah Xiang, who has been kneeling behind Emperor Yan: ......
How could things turn out differently than she thought? In her opinion, Concubine Shu has become jealous of Alain, and after fascinating Alain, she will naturally find a way to destroy Alain, and destroy the corpse without knowing it.
At first, seeing that Alan was not in the dormitory, Ah Xiang was very proud, thinking that Concubine Shu had already done it.
Who knew that Concubine Shu was so excited that she was just trying to take a bath?
I thought she was a tigress, but it turned out to be a goose!
What's even worse is that the news of "Beauty Spring" was told to Concubine Shu by herself!
Ah Xiang shrunk her body, trying to reduce her sense of presence. In his heart, he prayed that Emperor Yan would not track down the details, and Concubine Shu would not talk nonsense.
What is terrifying, Concubine Shu, who was already wrapped in clothes, suddenly screamed: "Your Majesty, this is a conspiracy!" It was Ah Xiang's cheap maid who told the concubine that there was a 'beauty spring' in Mingyue Palace. Ah Xiang and the holy woman are from Zhao State together, this is obviously their bureau, and they want to lead the concubines into the urn! The concubine was framed! ”
Emperor Yan was stunned for a moment, and raised his eyes to look at Bolan.
Bolan set her eyes on Ah Xiang, she had seen Ah Xiang arrogantly reproaching Ah Zhen, and she had seen Ah Xiang's smile when she learned that she could enter the palace as a palace maid, but it was the first time that she saw full of begging in Ah Xiang's eyes.
Ah Xiang just looked at Bolan, and big tears of fear rolled down.
But Bolan was not moved, and chose to tell the truth: "Since entering the palace, I have never seen Ah Xiang, let alone said half a word to her. ”
Emperor Yan came to his senses in an instant, not to mention that the Holy Maiden did not target the Lady Concubine, even if the Saintess really wanted to deal with the Concubine, he would stand on the side of the Saintess.
"The concubine was sent to the cold palace, and the rest of the palace people who participated should have been killed, but the saint didn't like to kill, so she played 20 boards each and punished them into the Xin Zhi Library. The lowly maid Ah Xiang stirred up rumors, the crime was unforgivable, and she was beaten with thirty boards and expelled from the palace. ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty, thank you, Holy Maiden." The palace people who originally thought they were going to die were busy kowtowing to thank him.
Only Concubine Shu and Ah Xiang were still full of disbelief when they were dragged away.
The Bright Moon Palace returned to tranquility.
Bolan didn't want to go back to the inner sanctum, so she simply lay on the roof and looked at the stars in the sky.
[Lan, I thought you would intercede for them. Forrest Gump's voice rang out.
[I thought I would ...... too]
Bolan's eyes reflected the bright stars, and the night breeze ruffled her hair, revealing a smooth forehead, making her look casual and open.
She is a saint in the eyes of the world, but she has no consciousness to be a virgin. If repaying grievances with virtue is a kind of kindness, then she may never learn it.
Maybe I'm not kind enough. But I probably won't change it. 】
At present, the palace people of Mingyue Palace are still sleeping soundly under the catalysis of the incense, and Emperor Yan was about to wake them up, but was stopped by Bolan. After waking everyone up, there was a lot of commotion.
Let's let them sleep for a full night, whoever gave Ah Xiang the matter of the "beauty spring" will not be too late to ask tomorrow morning.
