Empress with no Virtue Chapter 10: Trouble
www.novelmao.com, the fastest update to the latest chapter of Queen Wude!
Until the night when the officials were having a banquet, Ji Wu Jiu still had black circles in front of his eyes.
This Ye Zhenzhen is like a curse.
She even gave him the dancing girl. Due to the empress’s affection and the emperor’s demeanor, he had to accept it. Thinking about it, I feel powerless again.
Ye Zhenzhen’s original intention was to cause trouble for Ji Wujiu, but she accidentally hurt someone – Concubine Li.
Li Fei counted up her own toads and Xian Fei’s toads, and found that Xian Fei’s had more toads than hers. Although Zhuang Fei’s had more toads than both of them, those were two different things.
In other words, Xian Fei has slept with her more often since she entered the palace.
Concubine Li was very afraid that she would lose her favor, and the emperor’s attitude towards her was indeed much colder than usual. She was planning on **** Concubine Xian, and was thinking of ways to get Ji Wu Jiu’s attention again.
What a great opportunity to play the piano to celebrate her birthday on Longevity Day. When it comes to playing the piano, no one in the entire harem can be her rival. The plan was going smoothly until Ye Zhenzhen summoned that god-like dancer.
Everyone present seemed to be fascinated, staring at the dancer’s head. Wherever she moved, their eyes followed her.
The emperor actually asked her to stop playing the piano early, which was the first time since she entered the palace.
The plan to regain the favor failed, and the emperor turned over Wang Zhaoyi’s sign that night.
Then the more Concubine Li thought about it, the angrier she became. She hated both Wang Zhaoyi and Concubine Xian, and of course she hated the Queen who ruined her good deeds even more. As it happened, the queen sent her servants to distribute the rewards the next day.
The queen’s family is very rich. Except for food, she is not stingy with anything else. When she is in a good mood, she will order people to give some rewards to each palace. The reasons are various and no one is too lazy to delve into them. At this time, the maids and eunuchs of Kunning Palace will run around the palaces holding things, like boys scattering money.
In order to show their respect, the rewards from the three concubines’ wombs were usually delivered by Ye Zhenzhen’s personal maid.
The person who came to Luhua Palace to present the reward was Su Yue. She led the two young eunuchs. The young eunuchs were holding things in their hands. They were just some jewelry, antiques, fabrics, etc., while she herself was empty-handed. When she came to Luhua Palace, she blessed Concubine Li and said respectfully, “Concubine Li, I have been preparing for the Wanshou Festival for the emperor recently. The empresses in all the palaces have worked very hard. The empress has hereby prepared a reward to appease the empress for her hard work.” , please take a look at it.”
It’s okay that she didn’t mention Wanshou Festival, but when she mentioned these three words, Li Fei’s face became even more ugly.
Su Yue actually did it on purpose. Although she has a calm personality and often advises Su Feng not to be hot-tempered, she is still young and hot-tempered. She doesn’t like Concubine Li at all, so she wants to verbally annoy her and vent her anger on the empress. He thought in his mind that he was the empress’s wife anyway, and it would depend on the owner to beat the dog. Most people wouldn’t dare to do anything to her after thinking about it.
However, she miscalculated… How could Empress Li Fei be an ordinary person.
So after the young **** finished paying his respects, Concubine Li said “Thank you, Queen,” and then looked at Su Yue with a sneer, “I didn’t know that all the slaves of Kunning Palace know the rules. I don’t even know how to kneel down when I see you.”
When Su Yue heard this, she had a bad feeling and hurriedly knelt down, “My queen, please calm down. The maids in Kunning Palace are personally trained by Aunt Tan who is next to the Queen Mother, so they are all aware of etiquette. The servants were in a hurry. I sent a reward to the empress, but I neglected her in a moment of impatience, so please forgive me.”
In fact, Su Yue was somewhat unjustly accused of making such a mistake. Although it is a rule for a palace maid to give a big gift when she sees a palace concubine, she is the eldest palace maid next to the queen, and today she is here to give the queen the reward, so the blessing is over. Ordinary concubines are not Will be investigated. Although the rules of the palace are strict, not every rule must be followed.
“What a naughty slave. He made a mistake and still quibbles. Fanchun slaps his mouth!” Li Fei refused to give up.
Fan Chun, Concubine Li’s personal maid, looked at Su Yue hesitantly, “Your Majesty…” This is the person close to the Queen. Have you offended many people in the harem?
“Slap!” Concubine Li was so angry that she couldn’t help but listen.
Fan Chun is the most capable person around Concubine Li. This palace maid is quite smart and can be regarded as half of Concubine Li’s military advisor. The other half is Concubine Zhuang, but it’s a pity that she now has the intention of holding the top of the mountain by holding the banner.
In short, Fanchun often helps Li Fei with suggestions. Concubine Li listened to her most of the time, but when her temper got worse, it was useless for me to persuade her, not to mention she was just a little palace maid.
So now Fan Chun knew that he could not persuade her, so he had no choice but to stop talking, walked up to Su Yue, raised his hand and slapped her gently. She just hopes that this slap will not leave marks on Su Yue’s face, and that Su Yue will not complain in front of the queen.
“You haven’t eaten yet!” Li Fei was dissatisfied.
Fan Chun had no choice but to sigh, and with all his strength, he slapped the fan with a crisp sound.
Li Fei felt slightly satisfied.
***
Ye Zhenzhen held Su Yue’s chin and looked at her red and swollen face carefully, her eyes narrowed slightly, suppressing her anger, “Who did this!”
Su Yue didn’t even know what to say. She felt that she was the first to speak rashly today, and being beaten twice was a lesson. The empress’ empress was in an awkward position now, and she could no longer cause trouble for the empress, so she retreated in the afternoon, leaving only Su Feng and the other eldest maid to wait in front of the empress. Unexpectedly, the Queen became suspicious after asking Su Feng a few words. Su Feng felt that Su Yue was wronged, so he confessed everything in a hurry, and cried and asked the Queen to make the decision for Su Yue.
“My Majesty, please calm down. I provoked Imperial Concubine Li in the first place. I will be careful in my words and deeds in the future so as not to worry my Majesty.”
“When she hits you, she hits me,” Ye Zhenzhen sneered, “I am the queen anyway, and if you dare to bully people in Kunning Palace, you are really tired of living!”
Su Yue’s complexion changed and she knelt down quickly, “Your Majesty, please calm down! All the mistakes are your fault. Your Majesty, you are in a difficult situation in this harem. How many people regard you as a thorn in their flesh, and the Emperor cannot look back. To protect you, you must not act impulsively…”
“Of course I will not deal with Concubine Li now.” Ye Zhenzhen waved her hand to interrupt the emotional Su Yue. At present, the biggest threat to her position in the harem is Concubine Xian. Concubine Li is a good dog. She can take the initiative to bite Concubine Xian without using her fingers. Why should she rush to get rid of such a useful knife.
Su Yue breathed a sigh of relief when she heard what Ye Zhenzhen said. She knew that although the Queen had a strange temperament, she still had the overall situation in mind.
“However,” Ye Zhenzhen’s expression turned cold, “I can’t keep this tone out.”
Su Yue’s heart dropped again, and she was about to persuade him. At this time, a **** from Qianqing Palace came over to deliver the message. The emperor asked the queen to go to Bixin Pavilion to see him.
As long as Ji Wu Jiu comes to visit him, it will never be a good thing. Ye Zhenzhen was mentally prepared for this and immediately went to Bixin Pavilion.
Bixin Pavilion is built on an artificially filled island in Taiye Pond. It is named after it is located in a blue sky and clear water. If it’s summer, it’s a pleasure to drink tea in the pavilion with the cool lake water and enjoy the scenery. When it’s sunny, you can smell the fragrance of lotus flowers, and when it rains, you can see the mist and rain. Composing poems can steal half a day’s leisure, which is not bad.
It’s just that the autumn wind is blowing and the grass is withering. What is he doing in Bixin Pavilion? Can’t think of it?
So Ye Zhenzhen thought about it all the way and didn’t know what kind of medicine Ji Wu Jiu sold in the gourd. When she arrived at Bixin Pavilion, she discovered that the emperor and Wang Zhaoyi were having a tryst here.
“I, my concubine, see the Emperor.”
“The queen is free of charge.”
Ye Zhenzhen straightened up and realized that the atmosphere was not right. Not knowing what happened, Wang Zhaoyi’s eyes were red and there were tears in her eyes. Ji Wu Jiu stood in the pavilion with a calm expression.
There are several pieces of rice paper on the stone table with unfinished paintings on them. Ye Zhenzhen took a closer look and saw that the one with full ink and broad artistic conception was a painting of autumn water in the sky painted by Ji Wujiu; the other one showed a pair of mandarin ducks sleeping cross-necked in the withered grass, which must have been painted by Wang Zhaoyi. Handwriting.
“What a pair of wild mandarin ducks!” Ye Zhenzhen praised sincerely.
Wang Zhaoyi was suddenly ashamed and ashamed, her face flushed. She glanced at Ji Wu Jiu carefully and lowered her head, a hint of fierceness and resentment flashed in her soft eyes.
Ji Wu Jiu also looked a little confused. It stands to reason that he and Wang Zhaoyi are not those infatuated men and women who secretly make secret appointments among the people. Why not have the two of them talk and paint here to relax physically and mentally? Although the location is a little more secluded, it won’t be crowded into a “wild mandarin duck”, right?
But what is that faint feeling of guilt in my heart…
“Your Majesty summoned me here, why?” Ye Zhenzhen put down the painting and looked at Ji Wu Jiu.
Ji Wu Jiu looked calm, “Queen, you can see for yourself.”
Feng Youde led Ye Zhenzhen down the stone steps. Ye Zhenzhen walked closer to the shore and took a look, thinking to herself, people were dying every day, and each one looked more uglier than the last. It was a hard life to live through.
