Chapter 533 Concubine Yun's Difficulty

Concubine Yun seemed to feel that it was almost done after talking so much, she gently stroked her belly with one hand, lowered her head and smiled and replied: "It's very simple, you help me kill the prince, as long as my child can sit in that seat in the future, Both the queen and the Song family can only die in the end."

At first, Li Mei'er thought that she had heard it wrong, but then she felt that the woman in front of her was probably crazy, who did she think she was, and how could she have the ability to kill a prince of a country.

"What the empress asked the women to do, forgive the women's helplessness." Li Meier lowered her head and replied in a suppressed voice. She tried not to let Concubine Yun see her expression at this time, so as not to expose her inner ridicule.

"No, you can. As far as I know, you have a very good relationship with the future princess Sun Pingting, and you can often go in and out of the Hou's mansion. I have a rare poison here. It is colorless and odorless. If someone smells it for a long time Or if you eat it, your body will gradually become weak, as if you were sick, and die silently, and ordinary doctors can't find out the cause of death at all, they just think it's a weak body and died of illness." Concubine Yun seems to have already made a plan, Looking at Li Meier, she said lightly, as if it was such a simple thing to kill a person.

Li Meier felt chills in her heart, she guessed that Concubine Yun wanted to use Sun Pingting to poison the prince, not to mention that she and Sun Xiaowu were good friends, even if they were just strangers, she would not be able to kill someone frantically .

"Your Majesty, the women's parents have taught them to be upright and kind-hearted people since they were young. Forgive them for not doing what you said." Li Mei'er was no longer afraid at the moment, and she directly refused, not because she couldn't do it. , but cannot do.

Concubine Yun's gaze became fierce, and she swept towards Li Mei'er like a knife's edge, her tone turned frosty instantly, "Li Mei'er, you can think clearly, as far as I know, the Queen will soon treat you Even the Concubine Ying hated you to the core, she always felt that she lost her position as the Crown Princess and was wronged to enter the palace because of you!"

"Public women don't cause trouble, but they are not afraid of trouble." Li Meier only said this calmly. She was not frightened by Concubine Yun's words. Both the queen and the concubine Ying are enemies on the face of it. It's a big deal The soldiers came to cover up the water and the earth, if she really chose to cooperate with Concubine Yun, it would be truly doomed.

Concubine Yun stared at her for a while, and then said word by word: "Okay! You are fine!"

Li Meier didn't answer, she could feel Concubine Yun's repressed anger, but she was sure that she didn't dare to do anything to her. In the current situation, Concubine Yun was at most trying to scare herself, it was impossible for her to tear herself apart.

The hall fell into an eerie silence for an instant, and after an unknown amount of time, Concubine Yun finally spoke, and she called coldly, "Come here."

Soon there were several maids filing in from outside.

After those maids had saluted with Concubine Yun, Concubine Yun's cold voice came slowly again, "Ms. Li, with her speechless words, contradicted my palace and brought her outside the hall to kneel for two hours."

When the maids heard the words, a trace of surprise flashed across their faces, but they quickly covered it up, bowed in agreement, and wanted to go forward and grab Li Meier's arm.

Li Mei'er took a step back, her face remained normal, and she said calmly, "I can go by myself."

Maybe it was because her aura was too calm at this time, and those maids really didn't step forward, but followed her to the outside of the hall.

At this time, it was almost noon, and the sun was high. Although it was the middle of August, the autumn tiger was still rampant. The bluestone slab outside the hall was hot from the scorching sun. Li Meier just knelt on it, with a thin layer of underwear And the silk skirt, the temperature of the slate is still clearly transmitted to the knees.

After a while, fine beads of sweat were already forming on her forehead.

Zhou Hanyu was led back in a hurry by the maid, and she saw Li Meier kneeling outside the hall at a glance, her face changed drastically immediately, and she went forward to help her regardless.

However, she was stopped by a few maids who were standing in the corridor and supervised Li Meier's kneeling.

"Mrs. Jiang, this is an order from Concubine Yun. Please don't embarrass me." Several maids said in a business-like manner, not letting Zhou Hanju come forward at all.

Zhou Hanyu's face was livid with anger at this moment, her chest was heaving violently because of anger, but she still suppressed her anger and asked the maids, "Then why did Concubine Yun make Miss Li kneel down? What did he do wrong? What's wrong?"

The maid just replied coldly: "Ms. Li's words were useless, she offended Concubine Yun and was fined to kneel for two hours. If you don't accept it, you can go in and talk to your empress."

Zhou Hanyu took a deep breath, smiled angrily, straightened the dress that had been messed up by entanglement just now, and her tone became calm, "Okay, then I will go and talk to the empress." After finishing speaking, she said Turned around and strode into the hall.

Concubine Yun seemed to have expected Zhou Hanyu to come, and let her in after hearing the reports from the people outside the palace.

Zhou Hanyu walked to the center of the hall and saluted Concubine Yun with a complicated expression, but he didn't wait for the words to make her get up.

Zhou Hanyu's legs were faintly sore, but she still kept her knees bent. She vaguely heard the sound of teacups being played above, as if she could imagine how Concubine Yun was drinking tea leisurely, watching her motionless with a smile salute.

"Get up." Just when Zhou Hanyu was about to lose his hold, Concubine Yun's lazy voice finally came from above.

Zhou Hanyu's legs were a little stiff, she moved very slowly, and it took a long time to stand up straight. She looked up at Concubine Yun who was on the couch, just in time to see the mocking smile on the corner of her lips.

Zhou Hanyu couldn't tell what it was like, and the last little fantasy in his heart was shattered. At this moment, the tall woman sitting on the couch, who seemed to look down on all living beings, was no longer the little girl she knew.

Concubine Yun put the teacup in her hand on the small table beside her, and without hiding the smile on her lips, she asked, "Does Mrs. Jiang want to intercede for Mrs. Li?"

Zhou Hanyu didn't hesitate at all, just knelt down on the ground, and said: "My wife's niece is still young, if there is something that offends your mother in words, please forgive her this time, if your mother is really angry, My wife is willing to be punished for my niece, please forgive me!" After she finished speaking, she bent down and kowtowed again, her attitude was very sincere.

Concubine Yun didn't expect Zhou Hanyu to bend and stretch like this, and she kowtowed her head really hard, seeing that her forehead instantly became red and swollen.

She looked at the woman kneeling on the ground with complicated expressions, the woman she had admired, envied, and envied so much, how could she ever have thought that the eldest sister would kneel and kowtow in front of her one day.
