Long Xiangyun took it doubtfully and opened the letter. There were a few lines of dragon and phoenix dancing on it, and a special seal of the Xuanyuan family in the lower right corner. And there were only a few words on the letter: Lord of the Li Kingdom, I owe Pei Ruochen a favor, so
, I ask your Majesty to cash in on the cost of this fortune-telling and agree to a condition that Pei Ruochen can afford! Thank you! See you later!
After reading the letter, Long Xiangyun was completely depressed, really depressed!
Why, why could Pei Ruochen actually make people from the Xuanyuan family owe him favors?
Seeing Long Xiangyun's depressed expression, Yu Tianrong smiled even wider, looked at the queen and said very humbly: "Queen, you and the emperor are one, and you are so fair in everything you do, which makes the women of the people deeply admire you."
"You, stop talking so much." He looked at Long Xiangyun and said gently: "Your Majesty, in this case, shouldn't we teach Concubine Lian a lesson?"
Long Xiangyun nodded in front of everyone, "Indeed, it should be, this is also a matter of the harem, it is up to you, the queen, to make the decision!"
"It's not good. The emperor has seen everything clearly. It's better for the emperor to make the decision. I don't dare to cross the distance."
After issuing the order, Long Xiangyun's expression changed slightly, but after all, he was the Lord of the Ninth Five Years. He quickly regained his composure and glanced at Yu Lian, "In this case, Concubine Lian has repeatedly offended the Queen, and this behavior has even more serious consequences.
She violated the Queen's majesty and committed the crime of gross disrespect. From now on, she will be demoted to Jieyu and her title will be reduced."
Yu Lian's expression was shocked, and she saw Long Xiangyun's face turned pale, Jieyu? The noble concubine was demoted to Jieyu, from the first rank to the third rank. This is too cruel! "Your Majesty——"
"Okay, now that the emperor has given the decree, then, Yu Jieyu, you must learn the rules carefully in the future. If you learn the rules and serve the emperor with heart, it is not in vain that the emperor feels sorry for you. If you know your mistakes and can correct them in the future,
I believe that the emperor will not dislike you!" The queen called the palace maid to invite Yu Lian down in a hurry.
Yu Tianrong stopped her in time, "Queen, this woman said she had grievances. Just now Lian-Jieyu seemed to know a little bit about it. Why don't we let Jieyu also listen to this girl's grievances?"
The queen glanced at Yu Tianrong, smiled and nodded, "That's all, lest anyone think I'm stingy, Yu Jieyu, just sit aside and listen together! Also, I just said slap, why hasn't anyone taken action yet?"
Long Xiangyun frowned slightly and winked at the two guards. Immediately, the woman named Cao Fang began to be slapped. The queen looked at it and said very kindly, "The first reason why I slapped you is because you dare to
You are slandering the imperial wife. Madam Yu is a first-class wife personally granted by the emperor. If you insult her as soon as you come, you are indirectly insulting the emperor. For this alone, you should die. Secondly, you said that Madam Yu went to kill the Jade Immortal Sect.
People? Huh, sisters, do you think Mrs. Yu is able to travel all the way to kill people in her current state?"
"How could it be possible? Not to mention that Mrs. Yu is a weak woman with no strength to tie a chicken. Even if Mrs. Yu has some physical strength, how can she go far away to kill people now that she is suffering from bad legs and poor walking skills?"
"That is, even if Mrs. Yu wants to kill someone, who is so stupid as to put up a sign to reveal his identity before killing someone? Aren't they afraid of being retaliated against?"
"That's right, this woman has clearly framed Mrs. Yu!"
…
When the concubines saw that Imperial Concubine Yulian was demoted to Jieyu, their hearts were full of ill-will. At this time, the queen wanted to be held accountable, and it seemed that she could just step on Yulian. They couldn't help but express their stance. There were different opinions, but they all had the same meaning.
, that is, it is impossible for Yu Tianrong to kill anyone. This woman must have been instructed by someone to frame Mr. Pei!
The queen glanced at everyone with satisfaction and said, "The sisters are very united and sensible, and I am happy to see them. I will go to the temple to pray tomorrow, and the harem cannot be without someone in charge. I think, after I leave the palace
On that day, the three of you, Concubine De, Concubine Shu, and Concubine Xian, will work together to manage the affairs of the harem. Mother Lin will tell me how to allocate the details later."
"Yes, the Queen, don't worry, the three of us will do our best to share the worries of the Emperor and the Queen." The third concubine was overjoyed and thanked the Queen.
The queen has left the palace several times, but she has never delegated her power once. This time, they were given an unprecedented opportunity to express themselves. They were naturally elated. At the same time, their eyes looking at Yu Lian also had a common color: that is, the situation has changed, and finally
It's our turn to entertain you!
The third concubine was usually very angry with Yu Lian. The queen's position was due to the strength of her mother's family and the fact that the queen herself had two sons. Furthermore, she was the eldest son of the emperor. It could be said that her status was impregnable and no one dared to offend her.
They had no choice but to accept their fate. Besides, the queen was usually very kind to her concubines and never deliberately made things difficult for anyone. Among the concubines, few of the queens had any particular resentment. Concubine Lian was different. She got the emperor's favor.
She loves her too much, and never puts other concubines in her eyes. She makes enemies many times, and is too arrogant!
The queen looked at the woman with naked eyes. Under the palms of the guards, she had lost her original appearance. She kept shouting for injustice. Unfortunately, the queen did not stop.
Yu Tianrong looked at it and sighed, "Your Majesty, Queen, I don't think she will say anything anymore. She must have been manipulated or she is obsessed with the mastermind behind it. Why don't you give her a good time and don't be frightened?"
All the empresses."
Long Xiangyun glanced at the woman, and a stern look flashed in his eyes, "Mrs. Yu is right, come here, drag her down, temporarily put her in the prison, and deal with it later. No one is allowed to see her without my order!"
"As ordered." The guard pulled Cao Fang down.
Yu Tianrong looked at Yu Lian's face and admired the queen even more. However, the time was almost up, so he would stop this time, "Queen, I will go to pray with my queen tomorrow, and the civilian women will go back to prepare."
."
"Okay, let's wait at the city gate tomorrow!"
"No, Queen, we should meet up at the temple. Tianrong's legs are not convenient, and it will be inconvenient to go on the road with the Queen."
The queen glanced at Pei Ruochen and hesitated for a moment, "Okay, then just do what Mr. Pei said! It's really enviable that Mr. Pei is so considerate to Mrs. Yu!"
"Your Majesty, Tianrong deserves it." Pei Ruochen replied with a smile.
This answer made Long Xiangyun shiver. It was worth it. Just two words, but it made him feel chilled. He thought that he knew that there were only a handful of people who could make Pei Ruochen say the word worth it. He,
The emperor only had a somewhat worthy position in Pei Ruochen's heart. It can be imagined... Fortunately, he finally helped them, otherwise, he would not only be as depressed as today, right?
…
Seeing Pei Ruochen pushing Yu Tianrong away, the queen dismissed everyone and returned to her palace, carefully giving instructions on what to do after tomorrow.
"The Emperor has arrived."
The queen glanced at the door, waved her hand, and told the maids beside her to retreat.
"Your Majesty, I wonder what the Emperor has to do with me?"
Long Xiangyun chuckled, "Does my queen not like me coming here?"
The queen smiled slightly and thoughtfully poured a cup of tea, "Of course you are welcome, but if the emperor has anything to tell me, I will listen attentively."
Long Xiangyun smiled awkwardly, "My queen has always been so smart!"
"The emperor has rewarded you. I have been with the emperor for a long time and I am so familiar with the emperor's temperament that I am like this." The queen secretly curled her lips in her heart. If he came to intercede with Yu Lian, then she would not
Will nod.
Long Xiangyun looked at the queen for a while before continuing, "Wan Qing, do you really want to pray?"
"Your Majesty is foolish to ask this. I have already said it to everyone, how can I still break my promise to everyone?"
Long Xiangyun sighed, yes, you can't break your promise!
Seeing his expression, the queen frowned, thought for a moment, and asked tentatively: "Your Majesty, are you worried about Lord Pei?"
Long Xiangyun nodded, "The queen understands my thoughts. Pei Ruochen is a talent, a talent who can become the pillar of the country. I could see it when I met him, and it was because of this that I attracted him.
Come to me, over the years, with the help of him and Nangong Jin, my empire has become more and more stable, I—"
"What is the emperor worried about? Since you have chosen the two of them to be your right-hand man, you must believe it to the end. I don't know anything about government affairs, but I know one thing: do not trust people who you doubt, and do not trust others! Your emperor is a wise king, and he should be more careful.
So! I believe that neither of them will betray you, Your Majesty!"
Long Xiangyun looked at the queen with peace of mind, "I know, I'm just a little troubled. Nangong also likes Tianrong now. I owe him a lot. I think..."
"Your Majesty, there is no regret medicine in the world. No matter how much the Emperor owes General Nangong, the reason for losing Yu Tianrong is himself and has nothing to do with the Emperor. Furthermore, Yu Tianrong and Pei Ruochen are obviously in love with each other now, and they are very affectionate.
, does the emperor feel that he does not owe Pei Ruochen much? Hasn't Pei Ruochen paid a lot for the emperor? "
Hearing this, Long Xiangyun sighed heavily, "I know that both of them are my indispensable assistants, so when Pei Ruochen proposed it, I nodded and gave in after seeing that both of them were willing!"
"Your Majesty, Pei Ruochen is a rare talent. If you say anything disrespectful, I believe that the Emperor understands in his heart that Pei Ruochen's real strength is no worse than anyone else. Fortunately, he has no objection! Your Majesty, please don't be biased.
I listened to partial beliefs and was instigated by villains, so I lost my arm!"
What he said made Long Xiangyun sweat on his forehead. What happened to him? He was just a little... Fortunately, the queen reminded him, "I am lucky to be able to marry a queen like you! Wan Qing, I hope you pray for your return soon,
Without you in the palace, I would feel very lonely!"
