The Empress Arrives: Rebirth of Concubine Hua

Chapter 553 The Emperor Summons
That day, Ulanara felt her heart beating unbearably, and she hadn't seen Jianqiu come in for a long time, so she sent someone to look for Jianqiu.

"Xiuxia, go find Jianqiu for me. How could you be away for so long without telling me?"

Xiuxia knew exactly where Jianqiu was going, but due to the queen's dignity, she dared not tell him, so she hesitated, not knowing what to do.

Ulanara realized something was wrong and looked at Xiuxia.

"Why? But is there something private about Jianqiu that she cannot tell me?"

Xiuxia's legs went weak and she knelt down.

"Your Majesty, the Emperor and Eunuch Su came to our Jingren Palace this afternoon.
"Take Eunuch Jiang and Miss Jianqiu away, and just say, just say it's in accordance with the emperor's order."

Xiuxia finished her words haltingly, then lowered her head, with beads of sweat oozing out of her forehead.

Ulanara felt a chill in her heart, wondering what Yinzhen meant by quietly taking away her close palace maid at this time.

She calmed herself down and said calmly.

"Did Su Peisheng say what it was for?"

Xiu Xia shook her head.

"No, I dare not ask for the Emperor's order."

Ulanara waved her hand, sent Xiuxia away, and picked up a string of Buddhist beads at hand to play with them.

She had been trapped again and again these days and had long been tired of reading books. She could only chant Buddhist scriptures all day long to seek peace and quiet.

It was a pity that as a queen, she was beaten by a concubine like Nian Shilan and had no power to fight back.

She felt more and more puzzled. It seemed as if every step taken by Nian Shilan was planned out, just waiting for her to fall into the trap.

She didn't know whether the letter that she asked Doctor Qiu to deliver at night had been sent out. She wanted to send someone to check, but there was no one available at the moment.

Jingren Palace was surrounded by walls, and she couldn't even take a step out.

Ulanara waited and waited, from afternoon to sunset, but still received no news about Jiang Fuhai and Jianqiu.

It was not until the next morning that Su Peisheng came to Jingren Palace.

"This servant greets Her Majesty the Queen. May Her Majesty be blessed~"

It was obvious that Ulanara did not sleep well, and the two big dark circles under her eyes could not be covered up even with watercolor.

She sat up straight, looking as dignified and noble as usual.

"Eunuch Su, please stand up. Eunuch Su has arrived just in time.

I heard that you took Jiang Fuhai and Jianqiu away yesterday.

I wonder what they have done wrong? They are my close friends.
Even if you want to take me away, you should at least let me know, right?"

Su Peisheng was extremely humble. He stood up, but did not dare to stand up straight. He just kept bowing as usual with an apologetic smile on his face.

"In reply to the Queen, something happened unexpectedly yesterday, and the Emperor ordered me not to alarm you.

The Emperor just came back from his morning court session and said he wanted to see you, so I came here specially to invite you."

Ulanara said.

"Please wait for a moment, Eunuch Su. I will change my clothes and go."

Su Peisheng didn't move, and the smile on his face didn't change.

"The Emperor is waiting~"

When Ulanara followed Su Peisheng to the Palace of Tranquil Longevity, she immediately noticed that it was different from usual.

In the past, palace servants in the Yangxin Palace were coming and going doing their own things, and the palace servants serving inside and outside the palace also had their own duties, and there were at least twenty of them.

Today it was completely quiet. Apart from Xiao Xia Zi guarding the entrance to the palace, there seemed to be no one inside.

Su Peisheng stepped forward, opened the door of the Yangxin Palace, and stretched out his hand.

"Your Majesty, please come in. The Emperor is waiting for you inside."

Ulanara calmed herself down and walked in.

The door of the Yangxin Palace slowly closed behind her. It was clearly summer, and the morning sun was rising, but the Yangxin Palace was dim.

The door and windows were closed. Yinzhen was writing something at the desk. He was not sitting but standing straight.

Ulanara walked over and knelt down.

"I send my regards to the Emperor. Long live the Emperor. Long live the Emperor."

Yinzhen didn't even raise his eyelids, nor did he ask Ulanara to stand up, he just said.

"The Queen rarely gives me such a great gift."

Ulanara twitched the corners of her mouth and wanted to laugh, but felt it was a bit inappropriate.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. In my heart, you are my husband.

I think that when a wife sees her husband, there shouldn’t be any estrangement between them.”

Yinzhen put down the pen in his hand, frowned as he looked at the words on the paper, then raised his eyes to look at the kneeling Ulanara, his eyes full of mockery.

"The Queen's words have caused me to have doubts. The Queen believes that there should be no estrangement between husband and wife.
However, if one party deliberately hides the other party and does many things that are unacceptable to others,

What should they do? The Queen asked, can this couple continue to be together?

Ulanara had seen the teasing look in Yinzhen's eyes a long time ago.

At that time, it was because the Eighth Prince and the Ninth Prince intended to be enemies with Yinzhen, so Yinzhen showed that kind of look to his own brother.

Not long after that, the previous emperor passed away, and the Eighth Prince was imprisoned by Yinzhen for the crime of treason, stripped of his yellow belt, and imprisoned in the clan house.

Somehow the Ninth Prince escaped the disaster and fled to his fiefdom with his biological mother, Concubine Yi, and never returned to the capital.

When she first saw Yinzhen's eyes today, Ulanara had a bad feeling in her heart.

She knelt upright and lowered her eyes.

"I am a fool, and I don't know what the emperor is talking about. But I think I have a clear conscience.
But the emperor has set up a question, and I don't have an answer here. Please allow me to think about it. "

Seeing Ulanara's stubborn attitude, Yinzhen felt disappointed again.

This was his first concubine, then his successor wife, and now his queen.

He didn't expect her to be so loving and sincere to him, but he also didn't expect her to do such a thing behind his back.

When Yinzhen thought of what Su Peisheng had reported earlier, his blood boiled in his heart.

After he finished his morning court session, Su Peisheng approached him and said.

"Your Majesty, the Ministry of Punishment did not sleep all night yesterday.
Jiang Fuhai and Jianqiu were interrogated thoroughly.

Jianqiu was quite stubborn and refused to say anything.
He just insisted that the Queen was not wrong.

But Jiang Fuhai vomited everything out.

In addition to confessing what the Queen had done in recent years,
There is one more important matter, which I dare not fail to report.”

Yinzhen asked.

"What's the matter?"

Su Peisheng grunted for a long time before he stammered.

"The cause of Queen Chunyuan's death."

At this point, Yinzhen finally resolved the doubts that had been in his heart for nearly twenty years.

He thought of what Su Peisheng had said earlier, and then looked at Ulanara's current appearance, and he could no longer hide the contempt in his eyes.

Yinzhen threw the papers on the table in front of Ulanara. Large pieces of rice paper fell like snowflakes, with Ulanara's crimes densely written on them.

Ulanara just took a quick look and her body, which was originally kneeling upright, collapsed.

She knew every word on it, and every word she picked out at random accused her of the evil she had done.

I had a big fall yesterday, and I went to work overtime today. My boss saw me limping and told me not to go to work tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. Hahahahahahaha, I am embarrassed! Forget it, I'll post more
