The princess does not have a bridal chamber

Chapter 280 Provocation (2)

After saying that, she turned her head and told Aoxue: "Aoxue, you can find some charcoal. Today, I will clean up the harem and drive out all those dirty and dirty habits!"

Aoxue responded respectfully, then turned around to get a pot of blazing coals, carefully placed it on the ground, wondering what exactly Peng Yuanyuan was paying attention to.

"Flower Concubine, please squat on it and take a horse step, and all the filth of ### will be ashes a little, so that we can live in peace and harmony after the harem is clean." Peng Yuanyuan pointed to the pot full of charcoal and laughed.

"As the queen is the lord of the harem, using lynching like this is probably against her status." Hua Rongrong glanced sideways at the brazier and said in a cold voice.

"My younger sister has a good manner. It's already this time and I can still bargain with me calmly. I just want to burn the waste of this harem. My younger sister is also an imperial concubine after all. Shouldn't she set an example?"

A sneer flashed across the corner of Huarongrong's mouth: "What the Empress said is really righteous. Who doesn't know that there are only two of us in the entire harem, and my sister wants me to set an example. Is it for my sister? Between the two of us, Elder sister is big, this palace is small, even if it is to set an example, it should be done by the empress herself, younger sister is just a little imperial concubine, how can she be assigned to the empress to be an example."

After speaking, he looked up at Peng Yuanyuan, feeling a little anxious in his heart, hoping that Shangguanchen would come to save him quickly.

"What a eloquent concubine, she speaks so grandly. I can't say anything about you, but it doesn't mean that what you say is right. Today, I want to teach you a lesson and teach you what is in the palace. rule!"

As Peng Yuanyuan said, she walked forward slowly, stood proudly in front of Hua Rongrong, and said coldly, "Kneel down!"

Hua Rongrong was not moved, a sneer crossed the corner of her mouth, intentionally provoking Peng Yuanyuan: "All living beings are equal before the Buddha, doesn't the Empress know that?

"All beings are equal?" Peng Yuanyuan asked back as if she had heard the most ridiculous words in the world.

"Don't put the emperor on me, even if the emperor comes, this Buddhist hall will kneel with you in front of the Buddha, and when you get in front of me, you have to kneel down to me!" Peng Yuanyuan's complexion became more serious. Severely, said angrily.

"Why, does the Empress think that she is more powerful than the emperor, so is it possible that the emperor will kneel down to you when he comes here?" Hua Rongrong tried her best to stand up, and met Peng Yuanyuan's eyes without fear , said loudly.

"Hmph, you don't need to provoke the relationship between me and the emperor. Today's matter is just between us and has nothing to do with the emperor. Don't try to involve the emperor in it."

Just as Hua Rongrong was about to speak, she was interrupted by a voice outside the door: "Rongrong's affairs are my affairs, queen, you clearly know that Rongrong is my most beloved woman, why are you still making trouble for her? You have already sent her to this Buddhist hall, and you still chased her all the way, what kind of heart do you have! How can you still look like a queen!"

Shangguan Chen strode in with an angry face, and seeing the blood-red cotton cloth on Huarongrong's forehead, it felt like a spike pierced his heart, and there was a murderous intent in his eyes staring at Peng Yuanyuan .

Stepping forward quickly, he locked Peng Yuanyuan's throat. Shangguanchen held Peng Yuanyuan hard, his eyes had already turned scarlet: "No matter who it is, as long as they attack Rong Rong, they will kill me. Even if you try your best, you won't spare her life!"

While speaking, the strength in her hands gradually increased. Peng Yuanyuan felt that the air in her lungs was getting less and less. She struggled frantically, but her throat was tightly locked by Shangguanchen, and she could not make any sound.

"Your majesty, please calm down and let the empress go!" Seeing that the empress was dying, Die'er hurriedly knelt down on the ground, begging.

"Go away, you don't have the right to talk here!" Shangguan Chen kicked Die'er away, and continued to increase the strength in his hands. In a blink of an eye, Peng Yuanyuan's bones could clearly be heard 'cracking'. .

"Your majesty, the empress is also your wife no matter what you say, a husband and wife for a day, a hundred days of grace, your majesty, no matter what the empress did wrong, please give her another chance to reform, and please let us go." Ma'am." Die'er then cried and fell to the ground, pleading.

"A chance to turn over a new leaf? For a person like her, she would have died a long time ago. I have given her chances over and over again, but she has become more and more rampant. Up to now, even my children dare to poison her. Don't say anything, don't you think I'm a fool!" Shangguan Chen turned his head to Die'er with scarlet eyes and said harshly.

As soon as the words fell, Peng Yuanyuan, who was struggling hard, was also stunned. Unexpectedly, the emperor knew all these things, but there was no evidence. No wonder he hated himself so much now, wishing to strangle himself to death.

After understanding this matter, Peng Yuanyuan struggled even harder. She knew that the emperor had already murdered her, so she was not afraid of the forces behind her father at all, and she became more panicked in her heart.

In desperation, Aoxue walked quickly to Hua Rongrong, and said anxiously: "Imperial concubine, this servant knows that this request is selfish, but I still want to ask my concubine to save the empress, the whole family of this servant is in the hands of the empress, If the empress dies, then my family will suffer misfortune."

Hua Rongrong raised her eyes to look at Aoxue, she focused slightly: "Is this the reason why you looked for me late at night?"

Aoxue nodded slightly: "The lives of the whole family of the servants are in the hands of the empress. If the empress dies, the servants and the whole family of the servants will be buried with the empress. I hope that the concubine will be merciful and let the emperor stop."

As she said that, Aoxue's eyes were filled with tears, now that the empress knew that she had gone to see the imperial concubine in the middle of the night, so no matter what, she would not be able to survive, but luckily she rescued her family, It's worth it.

Only then did Hua Rongrong walk quickly to Shangguan Chen's side, and said anxiously, "Stop it, if you keep pinching her like this, the queen will die. Are you really planning to just strangle her to death like this?"

The strength in Shangguanchen's hands was not light at all, and he didn't intend to let Peng Yuanyuan go at all. On the contrary, it became heavier and heavier, wishing to strangle Peng Yuanyuan to death.

There was a strong and frightening aura exuding from her body, which made everyone afraid to take a step forward except Hua Rongrong. As long as she moved forward a little, everyone believed that Peng Yuanyuan would definitely die here.

It had been a while since her throat was locked, and Peng Yuanyuan had no strength to struggle anymore, and her breathing became weaker and weaker.

"Let go, Chen, now is not the time for her to die, let go!" Hua Rongrong hurriedly stepped forward to grab Shangguan Chen's arm, and said anxiously.

Shangguanchen reluctantly let go of his hand, and threw Peng Yuanyuan aside.

Peng Yuanyuan's quilt was still in the corner, and after losing its support, it fell naturally and withered to one side, like a flower that has lost its moisture, gradually withering.

"Your Majesty! Empress Dowager!" Die Er hurried forward, holding Peng Yuanyuan tightly, shaking Peng Yuanyuan's body constantly, for fear that if she died like this, her whole family would be over!

After a long time, Peng Yuanyuan gradually regained her breath. After scanning around, she realized that she had already slept in her own Jiaofang Palace. Peng Yuanyuan was finally relieved by the familiar environment, and turned to Die Er beside her, "Your Majesty?" Did you really want to strangle me?"

Die'er happily moved forward: "Madam, you finally woke up, why would the emperor want to strangle you to death, it's just that he was too excited and didn't control his strength well, the emperor even came to visit you specially, I hope you don't hate the emperor .”

Only then did a sneer appear on Peng Yuanyuan's face: "Hmph, I'm afraid he wanted to strangle me a thousand times in his heart, and he just let go because he was afraid of the power of my natal family. Do you really think I don't know!"

Die'er could only smile: "Your Majesty, don't be afraid, General Peng is your eternal protector, the emperor is always afraid."

Lowering her head, Peng Yuanyuan sighed deeply, and a trace of helplessness rarely flashed in her lowered eyes: "At any rate, I am also a queen, the emperor's wife, and now I have to rely on the power of my natal family to ensure that I will not be strangled to death by my husband. It's also sad."

Die'er's heart was tense, and she said cautiously: "Your Majesty, you don't have to worry too much. I believe that everything will be fine. After a long time, the emperor's favor for the imperial concubine and empress will fade. The relationship will be eased. After all, because of power and status, few men can refuse, not to mention that the emperor ascended to the throne with the support of General Peng. This kindness will always be a stick in the emperor's heart The ruler also establishes your position as empress at the same time."

Peng Yuanyuan's eyes gradually went blank, she looked at the pale sky outside the window with dull eyes, and said softly: "I'm afraid this will also become a shackle on the emperor's shoulders, besides, how many good years do I have to endure endless waiting? "

Die Er immediately held her breath, for a while she didn't know what to say to comfort the empress, so she had to serve her carefully.

After a long time, Peng Yuanyuan gradually retracted her gaze, and her voice became more determined: "I can't afford to wait, so I can't wait to die. In this harem, either I die or Huarong dies. We can live on. There can only be one!"

Die'er cautiously approached Peng Yuanyuan, fearing that she might accidentally annoy the empress with a single action, she probed softly: "Your Majesty, so many things have happened recently, the eyes of the emperor and the imperial concubine are all on you and the general. I'm afraid it's not appropriate to act rashly, it's better to wait for the limelight to pass, and we are waiting for the opportunity to act."

Peng Yuanyuan nodded slightly: "Well, you're right, let Huarongrong get away with it for a while, we have plenty of time to find Huarongrong's weaknesses."
