Shocking Harem Road: The Legend of Concubine Yi

Chapter 173 Concubine Yi angered the emperor 2
He laughed and said: "Grandma is right, Concubine Yi is indeed too childish!"

The Empress Dowager put down her chopsticks and said thoughtfully: "However, except for Chengqian Palace and Yongning Palace, the other concubines have no heirs. If someone else is chosen as queen, it would be a little unreasonable." She looked at Ming Xuanyu and said: "How about Let's wait for a while, if the empress is deposed, then find someone to take care of the Liugong affairs, what do you think?"

Ming Xuanyu already understood the meaning of grandma's words.

Those two palaces are not qualified to be queens, so there are only two candidates left, Concubine De and Concubine Xian!Did grandma want one of them to be queen?

Ming Xuanyu thought about it, but still smiled and agreed.

Coming out of the Compassionate Ning Palace, he asked Zhang De, "How is Concubine Yi's body?"

This is the first time the emperor has asked for it all day. Zhang De quickly replied: "It is said that the fever has subsided a little, but the person is still not energetic." Palace or elsewhere?"

But Ming Xuanyu sighed: "Go back to Qianqing Palace, you won't go anywhere!"

Zhang De was disappointed again, but heard the emperor add: "You go to see her, just say, tell her, let her obediently obey the imperial doctor's words!"

After speaking, the sedan chair got up, Zhang De bowed behind, and then went to Yongning Palace.

Xinyi lay on the bed, half asleep and half awake, as if feeling that he was beside her, but every time she opened her eyes, he was not there.

Why did he leave like that?Does that mean I shouldn't have said those things?

Since she regained consciousness, she kept doubting and thinking like this, and the more she thought about it, the sadder she became.Originally thought that he would come to see her and accompany her, but he never came back.

As soon as Zhang De came, he told her exactly what Ming Xuanyu had said, but she angrily covered herself with a quilt and said nothing.Zhang De had no choice but to back out and told Lianer and Qiaoer to take care of them.

Really, don't come if you don't want to, what does that mean?Ming Xuanyu, you gutless man!
Although she was still ill, she had already "cursed" him so many times in her heart.

In the next few days, Xinyi's condition gradually improved. Ming Xuanyu did not come or send someone over to understand the situation, but Lian'er would report the situation to Zhang De every day, and Zhang De took the opportunity to tell the emperor.

The Empress and Concubine Shu have never been here, and no other concubines, except Zuo Hanqing and Lin Yuhan, have stepped into Yongning Palace.Now the concubines are starting to circle around Concubine Zhen.

From Zuo and Lin, they learned about the situation in the harem and the queen's situation. Although everyone had a premonition that the queen would be in trouble, few people thought that the queen would be deposed.

Until the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month, when she was paying her respects at the Palace of Compassion and Peace, Concubine Zhen brought Ye Er, the maid of Yikun Palace who was said to be "missing" in front of the Empress Dowager, everyone was in an uproar, and the Empress almost fainted.

In front of the Empress Dowager and all the concubines, Zhen Guifei asked Ye Er to confess all the facts that the queen had arranged for her to sleep with her, that she was pregnant later, and that she was poisoned by the queen.The queen knelt in front of the empress dowager and shouted her innocence, but the empress dowager remained silent.

"Sister, shouldn't the emperor come over and give you justice?" Concubine Zhen said coldly.

Concubine Shu knelt in front of the Empress Dowager, kowtowed and said: "Lafayette, these are some people who framed the empress, please enlighten me!"

Everyone was arguing here, and the Empress Dowager said: "Queen, you should go back to Yikun Palace, how to deal with this matter, just wait for the emperor's order!"

The empress dowager's tone was indifferent, all this was a trap in the eyes of the empress, like a drama played by Concubine Zhen and the empress dowager together!However, the matter has come to this point, and the queen has no power to fight back.The empress dowager obviously knew about this, and she would not support the empress.In this way, the emperor will naturally not tolerate the queen, and the fate waiting for Tong Huilan can be imagined.

"Come here, send the Queen and Concubine Shu back. Without Aijia or the Emperor's will, you are not allowed to step out of the two palaces. Everything is waiting for the Emperor!" Finally, the Empress Dowager announced in her usual majestic tone this order.

The queen returned to Yikun Palace, completely lifeless.Originally, he was counting on Concubine Yi to save him, but he did not expect Concubine Yi to become so ill, and the emperor would not even visit her.It seems that Concubine Yi is almost finished.

The problem is this Ye'er, isn't she already dead?How could it appear alive in the Compassionate Ning Palace?This is the one thing that bothers the queen the most.

That night, Hong Shanggong went to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and together with Tan Shanggong secretly met with He Shanggong and Yuying, and told about the Queen and Concubine Zhen.

"The Queen's deposed is only a matter of a moment, but Concubine Zhen must not be allowed to take advantage of it. You keep an eye on her carefully, and you must catch her. Regardless of whether it is true or not, find a way to put her to death! " Hong Shanggong said to He Shanggong and Yuying.

The two nodded after hearing this, but Tan Shanggong said: "If you want to kill Concubine Zhen, you have to bring Concubine Yi in. Judging from the current situation, only by letting Concubine Zhen do something to Concubine Yi can the emperor make up his mind. Deal with Concubine Zhen!"

"But, since Concubine Shu went to Yongning Palace that day, hasn't the emperor neglected Concubine Yi? I'm afraid Concubine Yi is useless!" He Shanggong said.

Hong Shanggong smiled slightly and said: "Zhang De talks to the emperor about Concubine Yi every day, how could the emperor neglect Concubine Yi? Only Concubine Yi can let the emperor take action against Concubine Zhen. No matter what Concubine Yi is, the most important thing is that Concubine Zhen The noble concubine cannot get away with it. Just like the matter of the empress, Guifei Zhen will never stand up!"

Tan Shanggong nodded and said: "Exactly. It's best to let them both lose!"

"Concubine Zhen has always wanted to do something to Concubine Yi, but she couldn't find a chance at all," Yuying said.

"This matter must be done in a perfect manner, and nothing can go wrong!" Hong Shanggong said.

On the 25th of the twelfth lunar month, Ming Xuanyu decreed to depose Queen Tong and Concubine Huo, and put them in the cold palace.However, a new round of fighting quietly started in the harem around the queen's position.

On the afternoon of the 25th, Ming Xuanyu finally came to Yongning Palace.

Xinyi's body has not recovered yet, she still has some cough, dare not go out, just stay in the bedroom and play the piano, but her mind is absent, the song can't be tuned, and the tune can't be tuned.

The queen was abolished because of the court lady Ye Er, and the Tong family and the Huo family were also ransacked because of some old cases. Xinyi wanted to see Ming Xuanyu, but he strictly prohibited her from going out, so she broke her promise to Concubine Shu .She felt uneasy and guilty.

"It's such an ugly tune, what a pity for this qin!" He said as soon as he came in.

"If you don't like it, just leave, no one will ask you to listen!" She didn't look at him at all, and made a few harsh voices.

Perhaps because he had expected such a response from her, he deliberately said: "Let's go, I don't want to be taken care of by you!" Then, he turned around and took two steps towards the door.

Seeing that he really wanted to leave, the pain squeezed in his heart suddenly turned into tears.

"Okay, don't cry, it's my fault, it's my fault, can't you?" He bent down and put his arms around her neck to persuade her.

"If you say such hurtful things, you don't care if people chase after you, and you don't care if they are sick. Just let me die!" She cried and complained.

"Begging for mercy, okay, you look so ugly, crying like this—" He originally wanted to tease her, but unexpectedly she cried even harder.

"Let go of me, what are you doing?" When she didn't pay attention at all, she was picked up by him and walked to the bed. She kept beating him, and her legs were flapping in the air, but he didn't stop at all. bother.

Throwing her on the bed, he lays directly on top of her.

Breathing so close, her heart speeded up involuntarily, and her cheeks became hot.

"You idiot, I told you not to meddle in other people's affairs, and don't be a good person. You're lucky, you believe everything others tell you, but you ignore my words!" He stared straight into her eyes.

"There are so many innocent people in those two families—" she began to explain, but was interrupted by him.

"That has nothing to do with you! I know that you have a lot of sympathy, and you can take care of what you should and what you shouldn't. If people outside know that you are helping the Tong family, do you know what kind of situation you will face? ?”

"I—" She didn't know how to respond.

"Why do you always tell me that I can't save myself?" He sighed helplessly.

She lowered her eyes and said aggrievedly: "Since this is the case, you didn't say it clearly, and you still said such cruel words, leave others and leave!"

He sighed and kissed her deeply.

After a long time, I said: "Your heart hurts, and I hurt too. But, you are always so stupid, what can you do?"

Her mood has become very complicated at this moment. In his heart, what exactly is she?
"What am I yours?" she asked.

He didn't understand what she meant, and said with a smile, "You are my wife!"

"no!"

"No?" he asked puzzled.

"If it's a wife, shouldn't you talk about everything and share weal and woe? But, you and I are not like that." She stared at him with a puzzled expression, "I feel like a bird you kept in a cage. When should I I will listen to you when I tweet, and I will listen to you when I sing any tune.”

He said nothing, just listened quietly.

"I don't want to be like that. I want to tell everything in my heart, even if you are willing to listen, I will say it. That day, I did say those words to you for Concubine Shu's request. I didn't rely on you and me I am not the so-called person who is proud of being favored, I—" She seemed to want to say all the words she had been thinking about these days, but he stopped her again, and only the broken throat came out. Broken moans.

After a long time, he let go of her lips, stroked her hot cheek with his slender fingers, and said with a smile: "You have never been arrogant because I love you, but I don't spoil you! I can spoil many people , but love can only be given to one person! Do you understand?"

She nodded shyly.

"That day, it was my fault. Please forgive me, okay?"

She could only see him through her eyelashes, and she just nodded.

But he heard him sigh again: "Oh, I really don't know what to do to you now!" She didn't understand, and raised her eyes to stare at him.

"I've always wanted you to maintain such a pure heart, but others can't tolerate your temper!" His words made her even more confused.

"Be careful of others, don't believe what others say too easily!" He warned.

After a long silence, she asked him why he insisted on putting the queen in the cold palace, "Except for Ye Er, the queen really didn't do anything bad?"

"That's an excuse. Without that, even if the queen is abolished, she won't be thrown into limbo." His finger was still moving back and forth on her cheek.

"Because she was in the way of others, that's why they did that to her!" he said.

"Others? Do you mean Concubine Zhen?" she asked.

"A lot of people! Yu Nan is just a scapegoat who was carried out!" His tone and expression made her feel deeply sad, and she couldn't help but feel a pang in her heart.

"Starting today, you must be careful. Because if you block the way of others, even if you have no fault in yourself, they will find a way to drive you away!" He said, "I will protect You, but, you can't let others get a little bit of information, you know?"

Judging from his words and expression, I'm afraid something serious is going to happen again, she nodded heavily.

As for what would happen, she didn't know.

However, even if she tried her best to avoid other people's swords, things still happened unstoppably!
