Chapter 553

The emperor's face was so gloomy and terrifying when he heard that, the faces of the surrounding court ladies and eunuchs changed drastically.

Lian Yi was so frightened that she stuttered, her face full of horror, she pointed at Xiao Yun: "You, you... don't talk nonsense in front of the emperor!" She cried and said: "Your Majesty, there are absolutely no slaves, she is the one who slandered slaves, don't believe You ask your concubine, she just said that her legs are numb, and this servant wants to help your concubine..."

An Yirou looked flustered and bewildered, as if she wanted to intercede for Lian Yi, but was also afraid that if she lied to the emperor, she would anger him.

Xiaoyun knelt forward a few steps, kowtowed heavily, and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, please trust your servant, what the servant said is true, not only today, every day the empress attends bed and comes back from Qianqing Palace, Sister Lian Yi said that she would pass on the imperial concubine's orders, and it would take several hours for her to kneel down, but she still doesn't allow her servants to tell the story, and she..."

Before Xiaoyun finished speaking, An Yirou interrupted her: "Xiaoyun! Don't talk nonsense!"

"Your Majesty, servant girl, servant girl..." Xiaoyun's face was full of grievances.

An Yirou straightened her body and knelt in front of the emperor, said with an uneasy expression: "Your Majesty, this matter is Xiaoyun's nonsense. It was just about the concubine's problem. The concubine's legs are numb and they will fall down. It has nothing to do with other people."

Seeing An Yirou's timid look, her eyes were red with fear, the emperor was very distressed, she was always kind-hearted, she concealed Lianyi's evil deeds, she must be afraid that this matter would kill Lianyi, she couldn't bear it.

The emperor's heart is like a mirror, Lian Yi dares to be so presumptuous, it must be Concubine Shu's meaning behind it, he usually dotes on Concubine Shu, and he always turns a blind eye to her methods of punishing people in the harem. In An Yirou's body, she is such a kind woman, he wants to protect her!
The emperor personally helped An Yirou up, and said with pity: "I know this matter well, it's not your fault."

After finishing speaking, the emperor said to Xiaoyun: "What are you still doing in a daze! Concubine Rougui must have hurt her leg, first help her to apply the medicine."

Xiao Yun hurriedly said: "Yes, Your Majesty."

Xiaoyun helped An Yirou to leave, but An Yirou still looked at the pale-faced Lianyi worriedly, "Your Majesty, you..."

The emperor patted the back of her hand to reassure her: "Go and apply the medicine first, I will take care of this matter myself."

An Yirou had no choice but to say: "Yes, my concubine obeys."

Xiao Yun helped An Yirou into the inner hall, the emperor's face suddenly turned cold, and he stared sharply at Lian Yi.

Lianyi's shoulders trembled, and he kowtowed several times in fear, crying and said: "Your Majesty, I know I was wrong, I beg your Majesty to spare my life, all this is the meaning of the imperial concubine, I just obeyed, please forgive me name……"

The emperor snorted coldly, and said in a cold voice: "Li Quan, let me drag you down, this maid of honor is guilty of disrespecting my concubine Rougui, I will die with a stick!"

Lian Yi cried even louder, "Your Majesty, please forgive me, I know I was wrong, this is what the imperial concubine ordered me to do, I will never dare again, I beg the emperor to spare my life..."

Li Quan ordered the eunuch to drag Lianyi down, and her crying became farther and farther away, and became smaller and smaller until she could no longer hear it.

……

Yonghe Palace.

Concubine Shu was picking out the Bu Yao to wear today, when suddenly a palace goddess came in hurriedly, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty... something is wrong!"

When Concubine Shu was yelled at by her, her hands trembled, and she dropped the Bu Yao on the ground. Her face turned cold instantly, and she said angrily, "What are you yelling for! What happened!"

The palace maid was so frightened that she knelt down with a "plop", lowered her head, and said in fear, "Your Majesty, something happened to Lian Yi."

Concubine Shu frowned slightly, "What happened to Lianyi? What happened to Lianyi?"

The palace lady said: "The empress sent Lianyi to Lanyue Palace to pass the oral order, just happened to meet the emperor who suddenly went to the Lanyue Palace, saw Lianyi let Rougui concubine kneel to speak, the emperor was furious, and ordered Lianyi to be dragged down shoot."

"What!" Concubine Shu stood up abruptly, clapped her hands heavily on the mirror stage, gritted her teeth and said, "Tell me again! Lianyi was killed by a stick?!"

The palace maid said: "Your Majesty, yes, the emperor personally ordered Lian Yi to be killed, Lian Yi is probably already, already..."

Concubine Shu's eyes sank, she raised her hand and threw the current jewelry box on the ground, and the hairpin Bu Yao and other jewelry fell all over the floor.

The maids of the Yonghe Palace saw this, they knelt down hastily, and said in unison: "Your Majesty, please calm down!"

Concubine Shu's eyes flashed with viciousness, she gritted her teeth and said, "Concubine Rou, you bastard! Wait, I have plenty of ways to deal with her!"

The palace maid hesitated for a moment and asked, "Your Majesty, how are you doing now?"

Concubine Shu took a deep breath, calmed herself down, and asked, "What did the emperor say after disposing of Lianyi?"

"Returning to your empress, no, the emperor said that Lianyi offended his superiors and disrespected Concubine Rougui, so he killed her with a stick, and didn't say anything else."

Concubine Shu thought to herself, even if the emperor dotes on this slut An Yirou now, it cannot compare to her position in the emperor's heart, otherwise how could she not even have a word to blame her.

Thinking of this, Concubine Shu's face softened a lot, and she ordered to the kneeling maid: "Give me a make-up, I'm going to see the emperor."

"Yes, ma'am."

……

Moon Palace.

An Yirou drank the tea in the cup slowly, and asked in a low voice: "How? After the emperor disposed of Lianyi, how did Concubine Shu react?"

Xiaoyun said: "Go back to your mother, Concubine Shu went to the imperial study to see the emperor after she learned that Lian Yi was killed with a cane. The maidservant asked the little eunuch on duty in the imperial study. Concubine Shu cried so much in the imperial study. He said that he didn't know what Lian Yi did. Lian Yi saw that the emperor always called his wife to sleep with him, and deliberately disrespected his mother because of her dissatisfaction. Concubine Shu also said that she was not disciplined enough so that the emperor punished her, and then..."

An Yirou's face was calm, "Then what happened?"

"The emperor did not punish Concubine Shu, but also rewarded a lot of things to Yonghe Palace."

An Yirou's eyes drooped slightly, she put down the teacup, and said a faint "hmm".

Seeing that she didn't respond, Xiao Yun couldn't help feeling angry, and said angrily: "Mother, why didn't the emperor punish Concubine Shu? Anyone with a discerning eye can see that, if a little maid like Lian Yi didn't have Concubine Shu's instructions, how dare she disrespect you?" Can't the emperor see it!"

An Yirou sighed softly, raised her eyes to look at Xiaoyun, and said calmly: "The emperor understands better than anyone else that he doesn't punish Concubine Shu, do you think that being favored by this palace for a few days can be compared to Concubine Shu's crown favor?" Has it been six years?"

Xiaoyun's lips moved slightly, and he was speechless for a while.

"I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. If I want to shake Concubine Shu's position in the emperor's heart and in the harem, it can't be done overnight. What I want is..." An Yirou's eyes flashed with determination, "Destroy it little by little. The emperor's favor for Concubine Shu!"

An Yirou glanced at Xiaoyun, and said, "Don't say what you said today, be careful that walls have ears."

Xiao Yun hurriedly said: "Yes, Madam, I have remembered."

An Yirou rubbed her forehead, her face was slightly tired, and said: "Send a piece of osmanthus cake made by myself to the emperor."

"The servant waits for someone to send it over."

"Well, you can step back, I will rest for a while."

"Yes, ma'am."

Just as Xiao Yun was about to step back, An Yirou suddenly called to her: "Wait."

"Ma'am, do you have any other orders?"

An Yi judao: "Tomorrow, you go to Yuehua Palace and take back the thing that is pressed under the fifth flower pot at the door. Be careful not to be seen by others."

Xiaoyun was suspicious in his heart, but he didn't dare to ask further questions, and replied: "Yes, this servant knows."

After Xiaoyun retreated, An Yirou felt tired and was about to go to the bed to rest, when a nausea suddenly surged up, but it disappeared soon.

An Yirou covered her heart and frowned, thinking it was because she was too tired recently, she didn't take it to heart.
