For Lily, Chu Heng still has a little impression that she is the maid next to Concubine Shi.

Sui'an scolded: "I disturbed the emperor Yaxing for no reason, be careful of your cheap life!" ”

Although Lily was frightened, she still sobbed and said, "Your Majesty, go to Chaofeng Palace to see the master, the master is dying." ”

She didn't say what exactly happened, she only said that the situation of the concubine was serious, and after the emperor heard it, he really felt distressed, not only that, but the good mood just now was also ruined.

I didn't ask what happened to Lily here, and strode away.

I just don't know if he cares about the 'fast' concubine, or if he misses the queen Tang Xinrou.

As everyone shouted "Congratulations to the Emperor" in unison, the atmosphere of Mo Juyuan fell into a superficial and amicable situation, but in fact it was embarrassing.

"Congratulations to Su Liangyuan, a dance can impress the emperor."

"Yes, I will ask Su Liangyuan to take more care of it in the future."

"Su Liangyuan, the concubine is also very interested in dancing, can you give me some advice."

False compliments sounded beside Su Qingwan, and she went from an unknown Su Meiren to a Su Liangyuan who was promoted by dancing, and these people looked at her with a lot of jealousy.

"Xiao Cairen, I really feel worthless for you, the good sisters in the same hall robbed what should belong to you like this." Xue Fuyin said in a weird way.

As she spoke, everyone else fell silent.

Yun Caiqing said: "Su Liangyuan didn't say anything at first, how can it be considered robbery, your intention to sow discord is too obvious." ”

Xue Fuyin covered his mouth and chuckled: "Maybe someone will eat me." ”

Xiao Yunhan said calmly: "It is the emperor's insight that allows the concubine to see Su Liangyuan's alluring dance, which is the honor of the concubine." ”

Even though she said so, Su Qingwan still sensed her dissatisfaction.

On the way back to the temple, the three of them did not speak, and were silent as strangers.

Su Qingwan was not as happy as she imagined, and even a little melancholy, as if being promoted to the concubine position was like a punishment for her.

After a long time, Su Qingwan said: "Xiao Cairen, I can't stand it today, but I really didn't want to fight with you." ”

Xiao Yunhan was stunned, she didn't expect her to explain to herself, there was no need to make things like this clear.

Then I thought that if Su Qingwan really didn't want to dance, she could refuse, but she didn't.

"I know." Xiao Yunhan just said three words lightly.

Seeing her indifferent expression, Su Qingwan didn't want to say more, she was not the kind of character who could whisper and beg for help, and besides, she was not wrong, the apology just now was just to ease the relationship, and she didn't want to have one more enemy.

At this time, in the Chaofeng Palace, the delicate concubine was kneeling on a pile of broken porcelain pieces under the scorching sun, her legs had already oozed blood, and the bright red blood gave color to the ground around her, and her face was pale and crumbling.

Inside the house, the imperial physician was asking the queen for a pulse.

As soon as Chu Heng came in, he heard the imperial doctor say, "The queen still needs to pay more attention, don't let the wound crack open again." ”

Then he took his eyes off Shi Xuanyu and quickly walked into the hall from the courtyard.

"See the Emperor."

Chu Heng came without notification, and everyone hurriedly knelt down.

Seeing Tang Xinrou's pale face and the bloody bandage next to her, Chu Heng stepped forward quickly: "Rou'er, what's wrong?" ”

Tang Xinrou was surprised: "Your Majesty, why are you here?" ”

"Let me see your hands."

He and Tang Xinrou sat side by side, hugged her and pulled her hand over, rolled up her sleeves, and saw her freshly bandaged old wound when Tang Xinrou was half struggling and half compromising.

The gauze was still stained with blood.

"What's the use of the queen raising you! It actually made the queen's wound open! ”

Chu Heng moved softly towards Tang Xinrou, and when he glanced at the maids and eunuchs in the palace, he had a cold face, eager to drag them out and behead them.

Looking at the palace people and the imperial physician who were all kneeling down at Hula, the queen said: "This can't be blamed on them, they have served the palace very well." ”

Chu Heng asked softly, "Then what's the matter with your injury?" ”

This was the wound caused by the assassin's sword qi that night, and it had already begun to scab, as long as it was not a heavy object, it would not crack, and it would be fine in a few days.

Tang Xinrou raised her eyes to look at Chu Heng, who was handsome and extraordinary, worried about her, and said, "It's okay, just raise it for a few more days." ”

Chu Heng saw that she was deliberately hiding it from herself, so she simply investigated it herself, and glanced at the people in the hall: "What's the matter with the queen's injury?" ”

Su E wanted to speak and stopped, but in Chu Heng's stern eyes, she still stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, the queen mother doesn't let the slaves and maids talk more, but if you don't say it, the slaves and maids feel aggrieved for the mother." ”

Tang Xinrou stopped: "Su'e, needless to say, it's not a big deal, how can you make the emperor work hard." ”

Chu Heng hugged her tighter and said thoughtfully: "The more you don't let me know, the more I don't feel at ease, Su'e, make things clear." ”

"Here's the thing, in the morning, the queen invited the concubine to ask, and there was always talking and laughing, and then she talked about the hairpin jade pendant, and the queen also took out the winged phoenix pendant presented by the emperor a while ago.

When the concubine saw it, she wanted to ask for it, the queen has always been soft-hearted, but this jade pendant was given by the emperor, and the queen did not agree to it.

How do you know that Concubine Shi has a flamboyant personality and a tough attitude, not only quarreled with the queen, but also snatched the jade pendant with one hand, and the queen reached out to grab it, which caused the wound to split, and the jade pendant was broken because of this. ”

A maid brought the broken jade pendant, and when Chu Heng saw it, he was even more furious.

"It's all my fault, otherwise the jade pendant won't be broken, Concubine Shi has been punished by me to kneel, so the emperor doesn't have to blame her." Tang Xinrou blamed herself.

When she said this, Chu Heng immediately thought of the lily who came to beg him to come over.

is a good concubine, it was her fault, but she pretended to be pitiful and asked the maid to call him over, because she wanted him to see her appearance at this time, so she blamed the queen and pitied her.

Shi Xuanyu knelt outside the hall, but the door of the main hall was open, and the people inside were not talking quietly, she vaguely heard a few words, plus the imperial doctors who came in and out, she had already deduced what the queen wanted to do.

The thought sent a chill down her spine.

After being a dignified country, he used such a shady trick to deal with the harem concubines, which was really petty.

But what should she do now?

At the very least, you can't die.

Yu Guang caught a glimpse of the golden dragon robe appearing at the steps, and before the emperor spoke, Shi Xuanyu was ruthless, raised his hand and slapped himself wildly, while saying 'The concubine is guilty'.

A loud slap sounded in Chaofeng Palace.

The words of reprimand that had already reached his lips were taken back by Chu Heng, and his cold eyes were nailed to Shi Xuanyu like the tip of a knife, this woman was still entangled with him last night, but now she looks half-dead.

But Chu Heng didn't see any pity in his eyes, and saw that her face was gradually red and swollen, and his voice was like ice: "Give you a chance to defend yourself." ”

Self-justification?

The emperor actually used these two words, which shows that he completely believed the queen's words.

Shi Xuanyu stopped his hand, his cheeks were swollen, his eyes were red, he didn't see any tears, he straightened his waist and said: "It was the concubine's pampering and arrogance, and she didn't know the etiquette, that caused such a consequence, the concubine is guilty, but the emperor will deal with it." ”
