Chapter 291: Concubine Li's Fall is in a flash
Concubine Li is now Yin Jixuan, and she will do whatever she says. So she answered.
However, this does not mean that Concubine Li does not have her own ideas. Although she knew that Yin Jixuan didn't let her poison because she was afraid that she would find out about her head in the future, wouldn't it be possible to find her head in the future if she bought the guards around the emperor? So from this point of view, it is not easy to poison any idea directly.
If she doesn't succeed in buying off the guards this time, she won't care about anything and will be poisoned directly.
After Concubine Li left Yin Xixuan, she went back to the palace directly. She originally planned to return to her palace directly as usual, but she didn't expect to meet her father-in-law beside the emperor on the road, the eunuch who had accompanied the emperor for decades. The eunuch said to Concubine Li: "Concubine Li, Your Majesty announced that you will go to the Golden Palace tonight to sleep, and the slave went to the palace to inform Niangniang just now, how do you know that Niangniang is not in the palace." ”
Concubine Li sat on the sedan chair, held her head high, glanced at the eunuch, nodded and said, "I know, the palace will go back to bathe and change clothes to prepare, and I will go over immediately." ”
The eunuch looked embarrassed and asked, "Niangniang, can you tell me where the old slave has gone today?" The old slave should also explain to His Majesty. ”
"Presumptuous! Do you need a minion to take care of where this palace goes? Concubine Li drank him coldly, and then asked someone to lift the sedan chair and go to her palace.
The eunuch stood there for a moment, then shook his head helplessly. Speaking of which, he is an old man beside the emperor, and there is no one in this palace who is not respectful to him. In the past, when the imperial concubine was still awake, she had some respect for him, but this Southern Barbarian Concubine Li has always had no one in her eyes and doesn't take him seriously. He had seen that the emperor had doted on Concubine Li's youth and beauty, and knew that if he said that Concubine Li was not, he would definitely make the emperor unhappy. But today, but the emperor asked him to ask if Concubine Li had left the palace and where she went, presumably the emperor also had a trace of doubts about what Concubine Li had done, as well as the rumors between Concubine Li and the Seventh Prince.
Now as long as he goes back and pushes it again, he doesn't believe in this concubine, and he can continue to be free.
Thinking of this, the eunuch couldn't help but hook the corners of his mouth full of wrinkles, and said to himself in the direction where Concubine Li left: "A southern barbarian is still so arrogant and domineering, and you are not the only concubine in our palace, as long as you and the Seventh Prince's dirty affair is revealed, I think you can still be arrogant in time!" Hmph~"
After saying that, the father-in-law happily returned to the Golden Palace.
Concubine Li went back to bathe and change clothes, and the thought of going to serve the emperor at night made her feel upset. The old emperor is a lot older, and his body is no longer good, and he can't go up or down every time, which is simply torturous. And the old emperor looked sickly, hunched over, disgusted to look at, and every morning when she woke up from him, she almost wanted to vomit when she saw his wrinkled face.
She couldn't help but think of the young and strong Yin Jixuan, Yin Jixuan is not only young, but also first-class in appearance, with good facial features, slender figure, young age, and sometimes gentle and considerate, sometimes domineering and brave, it is really unstoppable......
After a while, Concubine Li woke up from her fantasy, changed into the clothes of the palace concubine, and went to the emperor's golden palace.
When she arrived in the hall, she saw the emperor sitting precariously with her eyes staring at her very coldly, and Concubine Li couldn't help but feel a little panicked...... Although she has been plotting with Yin Jixuan to kill him, she hasn't done it yet. The old emperor's expression, has he noticed it?
But now she can only be strong and calm, move to the emperor step by step, smile and salute: "Your Majesty, the concubine is here." ”
The Emperor patted her and said, "Sit down beside me." ”
Concubine Li secretly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, it seems that the emperor still didn't suspect her, isn't this performance the same as usual?
Concubine Li sat down beside the emperor without hesitation, stretched out her hand to wrap her arms around the emperor's waist, and said coquettishly: "Your Majesty, since the imperial concubine's sister fell into a coma, you have never pampered any concubine in the harem. ”
The emperor smiled coldly, took Concubine Li's hand away and said, "I am the emperor, and it is impossible for me to guard any woman like jade, but to my relief, the imperial concubine can guard me like jade." Unlike some people, who are so bold that they actually fornicate with outsiders behind my back! ”
When Concubine Li heard that the emperor's tone was wrong, she couldn't help but beat fiercely in her heart, her eyes widened, and she stared at the emperor for a while before calming down, and immediately pouted, making a look of grievance, and said: "Your Majesty, if you talk to the concubine like this, the concubine is really scared, Your Majesty should not suspect that the concubine betrayed you, right?" ”
The emperor snorted coldly, looked directly at Concubine Li, and said, "Where did you go down today?" ”
When Concubine Li heard him ask, she immediately remembered the eunuch who had been scolded by her just now, probably because he sued. Concubine Li couldn't help but resentful of the eunuch in her heart, thinking that she would definitely bite him later, and she would definitely not let him go.
She thought for a while and replied: "Your Majesty, when you first married into the Li Palace, you once said that the concubines are eagles soaring outside, not the canaries of your Li Kingdom, so you are allowed to leave the palace at any time. Now that the concubine is out of the palace, you suspect that the concubine betrayed you, Your Majesty, you really make the concubine feel cold......"
Concubine Li said, then covered her face and cried.
If it had been before, as soon as the emperor saw her crying, he would have softened his heart, and the matter would have been stopped. But now, his patience was also exhausted, he pulled away Concubine Li's hand covering her face, and asked her, "To answer my question, where did you go down today?" ”
Concubine Li's face was full of horror, the emperor was really angry, his face was distorted, and it was very terrifying. It seems that this time it will be more auspicious......
Concubine Li hurriedly knelt on the ground, crying and said: "The concubine is just greedy, I want to go to the best restaurant near the palace and eat their signature dishes, during this period, the concubine has not seen anyone, everyone in the restaurant can testify for the concubine, if Your Majesty doesn't believe it, you can send someone to ask!" ”
The emperor said coldly: "Which restaurant?" I'll send someone to ask now! ”
Concubine Li was flustered, but immediately thought that Yin Jixuan had said that the restaurant was all his people, and they were guarded by someone there every time, and it was absolutely impossible for outsiders to see it, if the emperor sent someone to ask, Yin Jixuan's people naturally knew how to answer the emperor. Thinking like this, Concubine Li calmed down a little and told the emperor the name of the restaurant.
When the emperor heard this, he immediately sent someone out to investigate.
Concubine Li cried in a low voice for a while, always feeling that she couldn't swallow this breath in her heart, and raised her head and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, you must have listened to the slander of that eunuch to suspect the concubine, right?" The concubine was really wronged, and the concubine really didn't expect it, but because the concubine had a slightly bad attitude towards him just now, he slandered the concubine in front of His Majesty...... Li Guo's drama said that eunuchs are the best at sowing discord, and it is true. Your Majesty, you have to think about it carefully, think about how the previous dynasty fell, all because those eunuchs bewitched him by the side of the former and rear lords! ”
"Bastard!" The emperor got up and slapped Concubine Li and scolded: "You slut, you dare to compare me with the former and the latter? ”
The emperor is really angry, and the eunuch is an old man who has served by his side for decades, the more Concubine Li said this, the more he felt that Concubine Li was weak-hearted, he was angry, and said to Concubine Li: "You go back to your own dormitory, before I find out the truth, think about it behind closed doors, you don't have to worry about everything in this harem, I am not just a concubine!" ”
After speaking, the emperor shouted outside: "Come on, send Concubine Li back." ”
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty ......" Concubine Li really didn't expect that the emperor would really treat her like this, and now a lot of miscellaneous things came to her mind, she was worried that the emperor would really find out that she had an affair with Yin Xixuan, and then kill Yin Xixuan and her before he died, and thought of the idea that Yin Xixuan had told her, but now that the emperor is going to put her under house arrest, where else will she have the opportunity to buy the people around the emperor?
Concubine Li thought about it messily, and was taken back by the guards.
The eunuch who was standing outside the door and waiting, seeing that Concubine Li was brought out like this, had a bottom in his heart, and it seemed that the emperor was still more oriented towards him. He hurried in to serve the emperor, but as soon as he entered the door, he saw the emperor lying on a chair coughing, and listening to the voice, it seemed that all his internal organs were about to cough out.
The eunuch lied in his heart, and hurriedly sent someone to call the imperial doctor, and then came to the emperor's side, and asked worriedly: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, are you okay?" ”
The emperor waved his hand and said, "No need to call the imperial doctor, this group of quacks can't cure me, you go and hand over the edict I wrote last night to Sheng'er, tell Sheng'er to put the edict away, and wait for a month, if I am still alive, ask him to return the edict to me, if I am no longer alive, let him do what the edict says." ”
The eunuch has followed the emperor for so many years, and knows that what the emperor needs now is not comfort, but to do what he tells him, so he stopped talking nonsense and responded.
Before he passed, the emperor explained: "By the way, don't let Sheng'er come to see me recently, if he wants to come, you tell him that I am terminally ill, and it will be contagious, and if you get close to me, you will die, let him read in the palace." ”
The eunuch was so sad that he could only nod, so he quickly took out the edict and sent it to Yin Sheng in person.
The imperial concubine is unconscious, Yin Sheng still lives in the imperial concubine's palace, and Qingdi is also here now, and the courtyard is unexpectedly a little more angry.
Qingdi found that after the imperial concubine fell into a coma, Yin Sheng was a lot more cheerful, smiling all day long, and finally looked like a child of his age. The young man who was sent in by Liu Qimang, Jing Yuanyin, has also undergone earth-shaking changes in just over a month, and he is no longer the little beggar he was when he first met, but has become polite, capable of writing and martial arts, and is indeed a good helper of Yin Sheng.
Now, Qingdi has nothing to do, so he reads with Yin Sheng. It just so happened that at this time, the eunuch came over with an edict and said to Yin Sheng: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, the slave has been ordered by His Majesty, and there are some things to explain to you." ”
When he spoke, he glanced at Qingdi, who understood and hurriedly took Jing Yuanyin out.
The eunuch handed over the edict to Yin Sheng, and explained what the emperor said, Yin Sheng's eyes became wet when he heard it, and he pulled the eunuch and said, "Father-in-law, I want to see my father." ”
