Chapter 66: Concubine Protects Sister
At this time, the most flustered person in the Yilan Hall may be the concubine, she received the news from Lianrong and came to arrest the adulterer, thinking that it was a matter of course. It is precisely because she is 100% sure in her heart that she does not hesitate to alarm Emperor Yongan and Empress Zhu.
But right now, Lian Rong's life and death are unknown under the screen, and the situation in the Yilan Hall has become strange again, and she has a feeling that the general trend is about to go.
No, no! The concubine's hands were clenched in the wide hem of the sleeves. If she fails, then she will be a concubine from the third grade, her position in the emperor's heart, and the power of the family in the court......
Thinking of this, the concubine strode towards Lingxi's bed and opened the red silk curtain in front of everyone.
On the bed, Lingxi's clothes were untidy, and on his tender white chest, there were faint marks of scratched nails. Its jade-carved little face is full of pink, and a little fragrant sweat oozes from the tip of its nose, and a few strands of hair stick to it to look particularly charming. The good-looking brows are slightly furrowed, and the silver-white teeth bite the red lips, and the lip flaps are dyed with this blood red.
The concubine's heart was put in her stomach, with a sneer on the corner of her mouth, and she pointed at Lingxi and said to Emperor Yong'an and Empress Zhu, "Your Majesty, Queen Mother, the appearance of this slut at this time has explained everything." ”
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and grabbed the Lingxi on the bed, and said while pulling the Lingxi up, "You are still pretending to be here, doing such a dirty thing, and you still want to pretend to be sick and fool around?" ”
Lotus Ye suddenly stood up from at the feet of Emperor Yong'an and knocked the concubine to the side with all his might. Then he picked up the copper candlestick from the ground and held it tightly in his hand, stood in front of Lingxi's bed like a warrior, and said to the concubine in a trembling voice, "Concubine Niangniang, our beauty is sick, please respect yourself, don't wronged the beauty!" ”
Lotus Ye's hand kept shaking, and tears kept flowing up from his face, but the trembling voice revealed the perseverance that was rare in being a slave. Anyone can hear that if anyone really dares to touch the warbler beauty on the bed, this little palace maid will definitely stab it with the candlestick in her hand, regardless of whether the person who moves the warbler beauty is a slave or a master.
The concubine was knocked to the ground by the lotus leaf, and her forehead was slammed on the leg of the flower stand next to the bed that usually placed flower pots. The concubine covered her red forehead and shouted, pointing at her personal palace maid and said, "Le'er, don't you slap her mouth!" ”
At this moment, the spirit rhino on the bed suddenly put his hands around his chest and moaned loudly, and shouted loudly in his mouth. His brow furrowed, his face turned an unusually sickly red, and the sweat on his forehead flowed down like water, and his beard soaked the bedding beneath him.
Lotus Ye heard Lingxi's cry and hurriedly threw away the candlestick in his hand, pounced on Lingxi's body and grabbed Lingxi's wrists hard. The master and servant struggled on the bed, and when the spirit stabilized, a few more red marks were added to his chest. The words in the spirit rhino's mouth also became messy, like a hint of flattery.
Lotus Ye turned around and knelt on the ground with a puff, and cried loudly in the direction of Emperor Yong'an and Empress Zhu, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, save the beauty of the Ying......"
Lotus Ye didn't seem to be able to see what Emperor Yong'an and his party were here for, so they only kowtowed to Emperor Yong'an and cried.
Concubine Xian finally struggled out of the shackles of Emperor Yong'an, and ran to Lingxi's bed in a few steps. Seeing the spirit rhino on the bed who was tormented by illness, the concubine's heart was broken. She sat on the edge of the bed, took the confused Lingxi into her arms, and began to cry loudly.
"Your Majesty......" The tears in the eyes of the concubine were like beads with broken threads, and she turned back to the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, when the concubine was pregnant, you asked the concubine what she wanted, and the concubine said that she wanted Ling'er in the Yongshou Palace." The concubine wanted her because the concubine had just entered the palace, and only Miss Ling'er often visited the concubine in the concubine's half-moon pavilion. When the concubine was pregnant, Ling'er took care of it carefully, if it weren't for Ling'er girl who found out that someone had put red flowers in the sour plum soup, she was afraid that the concubine's royal child would have been stillborn. Since then, the concubine has regarded her as her own sister in her heart......"
Concubine Xian put the spirit rhino back on the bed, knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times to Emperor Yong'an, "Your Majesty, Yingmei is the concubine's own sister." The concubine begs you, find out the truth, and return the beauty to innocence. If Yingmei really does something that is unacceptable to others, the concubine is willing to be punished together. If the warbler beauty is framed, please ask the emperor to severely punish the person who framed the warbler beauty, and return the harem to a peaceful place! ”
The last few words of the concubine were said by looking at the concubine. There was no concealment of hatred for the concubine in his eyes, if Emperor Yongan and Empress Zhu were not in the palace at this time, she would definitely pounce directly and fight with the concubine.
In the concubines, lotus leaves, and concubines, Emperor Yong'an has stabilized his mind. As an emperor, he has a calmer mind than ordinary people, not to mention that he is still a ruthless master who ousted his own father from power. The reason why he didn't speak was to see how far these concubines he pampered and loved on weekdays could go, and what dirty methods he could use.
Empress Zhu also calmed down at this time, turned around and whispered to Qingyu, "Go and pass the imperial doctor quickly." ”
Concubine Ying's watery eyes swept twice on the concubine and concubine. In the end, he walked in front of Emperor Yong'an and bowed to Yingying, and said, "Your Majesty, the concubine thinks that the concubine's words are reasonable. Yingmei has been waiting in the palace of Xiaohe and the Empress Dowager for eight years, and she knows the rules of the palace very well, and she will not do anything that is too polite. Now that the warbler beauty is delirious, please ask the emperor to be cautious. ”
The concubine was lying on the ground, and when she saw that Emperor Yong'an didn't even look at herself, she knew that the situation at this time was extremely bad for her. Coupled with the lotus leaf's trouble, the concubine's cry, and the concubine's persuasion......
The concubine suddenly felt that she didn't bring people to the Yilan Hall to catch the adulterer, she came here to be a mermaid.
Thinking of this, the concubine immediately got up, knelt down in front of Emperor Yong'an, and said sincerely, "Your Majesty, the concubine also feels that there must be something ......strange about this matter."
"Huh?" Emperor Yong'an's eyes sharpened when he looked at his concubine, "It was you who let me and the queen come to catch the adulterer, and it is you who are the one who says that this matter is strange at this moment." Concubine, your attitude has become fast enough. ”
The concubine hurriedly kowtowed, and said with a cry, "Please also ask the emperor to investigate, someone must have set up this poisonous plan to get rid of Yingmei and concubines in one fell swoop." The concubine was also confused for a while, and when she heard someone say that Yingmei had a private meeting with a man in the Yilan Palace, she was angry and didn't think about it carefully. Now that I think about it, the servants in the Yilan Palace found that the Ying Beauty was misbehaving, and she must have gone to Weiyang Palace to report to the queen, how could she come to tell the concubine? The emperor, the concubines, the concubines...... "the concubines cried so much that the pear blossoms brought rain," the concubines were bewitched by others and were willing to be punished. But please ask the emperor to find out about this matter, and he will definitely return the beauty of the warbler to her innocence. After Yingmei recovered from her illness, the concubine decided to take off the hairpin and come to her to ask for her guilt......"
Concubine Xian listened to the concubine's words, knelt up straight, stared at the concubine viciously, and said, "Concubine Niangniang really speaks better than sings." You took someone to trespass into my Guangyang Palace, and made a lot of nonsense in my Deyang Palace, saying that I and Yingmei ignored the palace rules to raise male pets, and ordered your personal maid to do something to me in my palace, are these all bewitched by others? Could it be that someone wrote a drama excerpt and put it in front of the concubine, so that the concubine could read it word by word? ”
The concubine's face was pale, and she couldn't say a word about what the concubine said.
Concubine Xian continued, "In the grounding of the Ying Beauty, the female eunuchs in the Yilan Hall are not allowed to leave the palace at will. Even his daily meals are made in the small kitchen in the Yilan Palace, and the rough slaves of the imperial dining room only come to deliver fresh fruits and vegetables once a day. You said that the minions in the Yilan Palace came to your palace to report the news, then let me ask you, why did the minions get out of the locked Yilan Palace?! ”
Without waiting for the concubine to speak, Concubine Xian continued to sneer, "Concubine, you must be saying that I and Yingmei are the same dog?" It was I who allowed the minions in the Yilan Hall to enter and leave the Yilan Hall at will. It was I who allowed the servants to go to your palace to report to you and let you come to the Guangyang Palace to trample on my dignity as the lord of the first palace at will, I allowed you to make a fuss in my Deyang Palace when the three princes were asleep, I allowed you to detain the servants in my palace, and I allowed you to bring the emperor with untidy clothes and untied hair to this Yilan Palace?!! ”
The tears in Concubine Xian's eyes fell again, and her voice trembled and said, "Then concubine, do you want to say that it is me, it is me who has set this kind of trap, harmed the beauty of the warbler like my own sister, and then blamed your concubine?" Xian Concubine suddenly raised her right hand and slapped it on the concubine's face, so strong that her body also tilted over. Concubine Xian straightened up and trembled, "Concubine, it's really amazing that I have set up all kinds of schemes so carefully!" What a great skill to kill two birds with one stone! If you do the things that the beauty of the warbler and the people are reluctant, then do you want to question whether the third prince is not the emperor's bloodline? Say, you say, how many other ways have you prepared to frame us? Yingmei and I have always respected you as our sister, where are we in your eyes? ”
At this time, the concubine completely subverted everyone's impression of her in the past. Where is this still that timid and afraid concubine who doesn't even dare to speak loudly?
The concubine covered her swollen face that was slapped by the concubine, and lay on the ground trembling. She's not angry, she's afraid. She has never been so afraid of a person again, but she has done it.
Concubine Xian's words, every word bites at the key point, and every sentence can kill her. The concubine looked up at Emperor Yong'an, and saw that Emperor Yong'an's eyes were all focused on Concubine Xian, with appreciation, yes, appreciation. Emperor Yong'an's eyes did not hide his appreciation for the concubine at this time, just like admiring a piece of fine jade.
At this moment, on this occasion, Emperor Yong'an's eyes have said everything.
The concubine's heart was dead, she was unwilling, but she was helpless. Her only hope now is that Emperor Yong'an can take into account the power of the family behind her and punish her lightly.
Light rain walked in from outside, facing Emperor Yong'an and Empress Zhu, and said, "Your Majesty, Queen Mother, Imperial Doctor Han is already waiting outside the Yilan Palace......
