Ouyang Chen regretted that he had easily agreed to let her come into the palace and become his concubine, which simply caused chaos in the harem. Now the ministers are asking him to start the selection work as soon as possible, which is really annoying.
In anger, Ouyang Chen quickly stood up and headed to Defu Palace with his bodyguards and eunuchs.
With the sound of "The Emperor has arrived——"
Everyone in the Defu Palace knelt down and shouted long live. Hongluan knew that Ouyang Chen was here and knew that he would not be able to escape punishment today, but he was not bold enough to stand there and look at him, so he also knelt down.
Come down.
As soon as Ouyang Chen stepped into the palace, he saw the table that had been overturned to the ground, and Queen Li Jingrou who was kneeling there with her shoulders twitching.[
"Queen, get up and answer the question. What's going on?"
Ouyang Chen said Judo to Li Jing with a calm voice, but the anger in his heart was overwhelming.
"Back to the Emperor, I wanted to order someone to teach Concubine Shu a lesson because of her rude words, but she got angry and turned over the table. I have failed to discipline her well, so I ask the Emperor to punish me."
"Concubine Shu, is this happening? Did you say something that you shouldn't have said and were you punished by the Queen?"
"I didn't say anything, but I just mentioned Princess Ning."
"Why mention her when she's so good?"
"The Queen Mother said that Princess Ning should be married into the palace, so that the Emperor would not be so sad."
"Shu Fei, you are so slanderous!" Li Jingrou never thought that such an incident would make her confuse right and wrong and say the opposite.
The other concubines in the palace didn't know about the relationship between Ouyang Chen and Lin Rou'er, but they knew it best. She said this clearly because she wanted her, the queen, to be punished by the emperor.
Sure enough, as soon as Hong Luan's words came out, Ouyang Chen's entire face became terrifyingly gloomy, and he couldn't help but put his hand on the edge of the overturned table, which crackled and shattered into a pile of waste wood.
"Did the queen say this?" This was said to the kneeling people in the first palace. No one dared to speak. The scene of the table breaking into pieces was shocking to everyone. Everyone was afraid that they would become
What happened to that table.
"Your Majesty, I have never said such a thing, not even a single word. I know that the Emperor is very sad, how dare you say such a thing?" Queen Li Jingrou knelt down and cried with tears.
The more he explained, the more confused he became. Hong Luan's eyes were filled with pride.
"The Empress Li Jingrou was thrown into the cold palace to show her imitation. Concubine Shu cut off her concubine rank and demoted her to a concubine. The decree was immediately implemented." After saying this, Emperor Ouyang Chen quickly left the Defu Palace with a strong wind.
Everyone was stunned. Queen Li Jingrou fainted and Hong Luan looked proud. Even if she was removed from the rank of concubine, so what, it was better than someone being thrown into the cold palace.
But from then on, everyone in the palace knew a secret. I couldn’t explain exactly what this secret was, but one thing was an indisputable fact. Never mention Princess Ning in front of the emperor, otherwise you would be dead.
, it may be punishable in a minor case, but may be lifeless in a serious case.
Soon after, the nationwide selection process began, and the people responsible for the selection turned out to be Prince Ning and Prime Minister Luan Xiaoqing. This must be said to be a bit ironic.
They both know better than anyone else what kind of woman the emperor likes and what kind of personality he likes, but as for doing what they are doing now?
