Chapter 120: Coercion and Temptation
"Shuyun Palace?" Raising her eyebrows, isn't that the bedroom of Concubine Shu?
"Well, just now the grandmother next to the Queen Mother came to pass the word, saying that the matter of Concubine Shugui being framed has a result, and I asked you to come over." Xiaolian said.
Hearing this, the brows of the inclined face were wrinkled together.
I thought that the emperor didn't hand over this matter to Concubine Wen to investigate, how could he find out the results now, but asked the Queen Mother to come forward, and the key was that the people around the Queen Mother summoned her to Shuyun Palace.
If someone else asks Qian Yan to go to Shuyun Palace, Qian Yan may hesitate.
But the Queen Mother, she knew that the Queen Mother was a good one, so she took Xiaolian to Shuyun Palace.
When she got there, the palace maid directly invited her into Concubine Shugui's inner room.
As soon as she entered the house, she saw the Queen Mother sitting next to Concubine Shugui's bed, shushing and asking for warmth.
And the concubine leaned against the head of the bed.
Even in front of the Queen Mother, she was as cold as ever.
In addition, the most surprising thing was that Concubine Yuan was actually there!
The key is that Concubine Yuan is still kneeling at the feet of the Queen Mother, that is, by the bedside of Concubine Shugui.
However, he was only surprised for a moment before recovering his expression.
She walked to the side of the bed and knelt down to the Queen Mother, "The concubine has seen the Queen Mother, Shugui Niangniang." ”
The Queen Mother is partial-minded in private, but in front of outsiders, she will avoid suspicion a little.
Now that she saw that she was coming, she only said lightly: "You are sitting on the edge of the mourning family." ”
After listening to this, she obediently sat on the rose chair on the right side of the Queen Mother.
"You rebel girl, why don't you apologize to Concubine Shu in a hurry!!" The Queen Mother suddenly raised her voice angrily.
Before she sat down, her ears were numb because of the sound of the Queen Mother.
I saw that the Queen Mother ordered Concubine Yuan, and Concubine Yuan was like a child who had done something wrong, and she was a little clear for a while.
It seems that the matter of Concubine Shu is probably related to Concubine Yuan.
Concubine Yuan was yelled at by the Queen Mother, and her whole body trembled a little.
was still obedient, and obediently said to Concubine Shu: "Concubine Niangniang, the concubine is wrong." ”
"What's wrong?!" The Queen Mother gritted her teeth and asked Concubine Yuan.
Concubine Yuan pursed her lips and bit her lip back: "The mistake is that you shouldn't have designed to frame the concubine, and the imperial heir in the concubine's belly ......"
Seeing that Concubine Yuan had truthfully recruited, she was not very surprised, but expected.
She felt that Concubine Yuan was suspicious before.
In addition, as soon as I entered the door today, I saw this situation again, and it was even more determined that this matter was done by Concubine Yuan.
The Queen Mother glared at Concubine Yuan with hatred.
turned to say to Concubine Shu: "Concubine Shu, the emperor originally handed over this matter to Concubine Wen, but because it involved Concubine Yuan, Concubine Wen and the emperor handed over the matter to the mourning family. ”
"Now that the mourning family is in charge, in the eyes of the mourning family, this is not only a harem matter, but also a family matter, the mourning family decided to demote the concubine to a concubine, and then let her eat fast and recite Buddha in the Buddhist hall in my dormitory, copy scriptures, and pray for you until you give birth to the emperor safely!"
This means: The mourning family will control the concubine next and let her stop harming you.
"......" Concubine Shu leaned against the head of the bed, looked down at the thin quilt covering her body, and said nothing.
Obviously, he thought that the Queen Mother was protecting the calves, and the punishment was too rash.
At this moment, not only Concubine Shu, but even the minions around Concubine Shu pursed their lips angrily.
If it weren't for the Queen Mother's words, they would have scolded the person who said it and then drove him out.
But she is the queen mother, and the concubine has to meet when she sees her, not to mention these slaves.
Not to mention the concubine Niangniang, whoever was almost killed had a miscarriage couldn't accept the result of the Queen Mother, didn't this make it clear that he was protecting the calf?
Seeing that Concubine Shu didn't speak much, the Queen Mother naturally knew that Concubine Shu was not satisfied with this result.
But she still said patiently: "Not only that, but the mourning family will do their best to ensure that you give birth to the imperial heir safely." However, if you don't want to, the mourning family won't bother to care about this matter, and it's hard to guarantee what kind of impulsive things the concubine will do. ”
"In addition, you are pregnant again, you should not overwork, think too much, and take care of many things enough, not to mention Concubine Yuan, now there are many people in the harem staring at your belly, and the mourning family is really worried about you and my eldest grandson."
Speaking of this, the Queen Mother tried to persuade: "Yes, if you don't see that the concubine is the first time to commit a crime, you won't be like her, right?" ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone present felt the ruthlessness of the Queen Mother!
This is not negotiation at all, but coercion and inducement.
In the past, he only saw the stern and kind Queen Mother.
But I have never seen the Queen Mother so ruthless when she protects the interests of Xizi State.
In the words of the Queen Mother, she first said that she would discipline the concubine well.
But when Concubine Shu did not approve of her punishment, she said that she would indulge the concubine and the harem concubine.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but look at Concubine Shu.
I saw that Concubine Shugui's face, which had always been indifferent, was angry and unwilling, "Queen Mother, although Concubine Yuan is the first time to commit a crime, it is not the first time for you concubines of Xizi Kingdom, isn't it?" ”
As she spoke, her eyes looked at Qian Yan, which meant that Qian Yan had also harmed the imperial heir in her belly last year.
"......"
Now that the truth of the matter is revealed, she just wants to return her innocence.
I don't want to be dragged into the water by Concubine Yuan because of what Concubine Yuan did.
When the Queen Mother heard Concubine Shugui's words, she looked at her face with some embarrassment.
