The concubine in the medicine pot is charming again, and the sick and tyrant obediently confesses 233 Make Bengong Kangkang Who Is Jealous of Bengong Again?
233 Make Bengong Kangkang Who Is Jealous of Bengong Again?
In the torrential rain, nearly ten thousand people knelt down in front of the palace gate. There were old and young, men and women. They were the most devout believers of Qingxu Guan and the first pioneers who dared to speak out against the evil spirits.
"Please, Your Majesty, thoroughly investigate the demon concubine and prevent her from harming the country!"
"The crape myrtle is infected with evil, and Taiwei disrupts the government. If the demon concubine is not eliminated for a day, the catastrophe will not stop for a day!"
"Before the common people, Your Majesty, please think twice, think twice!"
…
Under the leadership of several literati, the voices of the people petitioning became louder and louder than the others, and they were so deafening that they could be heard clearly even in the harem.
I don't know whether it was intentional or a coincidence. In the past, none of the concubines who wanted to live in Changle Palace to enjoy the cool air came to Xiao Xiruo today.
They all chose Shoukang Palace tacitly, saying that it had been a long time since they had fulfilled their filial piety in front of the Queen Mother, and they had to go there no matter what they said today.
"The imperial concubine behaves erratically, is mean, and is domineering outside. She even deducts the expenses of Shoukang Palace. She disrespects her parents and rules..."
"Isn't that right? Those who are unfilial in this world may die from thunder or epidemics. Doesn't the concubine's behavior hurt Tianhe?"
"Shh, sisters, you should keep your voices down. The imperial concubine is a bit too harsh, but she is the most important person in the emperor's heart, so it is appropriate to be harsh. How can it be your turn to comment?"
…
In the main hall of Shoukang Palace, all the concubines were sitting together. Except for Concubine Wang Shu, who was familiar with the concubine, almost everyone was here.
The Queen had been in a daze since the incident in Fengqi Palace, and no one would talk to her. On the contrary, Concubine Xie De and Concubine Li Xian, who had often walked around with Xiao Xiruo in the past, now actually seemed to be trying to stir up trouble.
Especially Concubine Li Xian's last sentence, saying that the imperial concubine is the emperor's "sweetheart"...
What is this?
This was simply a dagger that pierced the heart. With one strike, all the concubines looked ugly and their eyes were full of jealousy.
They all entered the palace when the emperor returned to the court. No matter in terms of qualifications or thoughts, which one is not older than her, Xiao Xiruo, and which one is not more thoughtful than her, Xiao Xiruo?
But it happened that Xiao Xiruo, a pretentious and sickly person, suddenly caught the emperor's eye. The emperor went to Changle Palace every day without telling her, and he kept close to her with all the good things.
They didn't know it before, they just thought that the emperor wanted to cling to the Xiao family, so they had to make a living with Xiao Xiruo...
It's all a case of swallowing their breath and committing themselves to others, so they just bite the bullet and forget it.
But they happen to be walking around Changle Palace these days. Zhenzhener has really seen what pampering is and what love is...
The emperor would crack walnuts and peel lychees for Xiao Xiruo. He would suddenly appear and take people away when Xiao Xiruo accidentally chatted with them. He would also go straight to Changle Palace after the court, just to wake up a certain concubine who had misbehaved.
You know, they have only been in and out of Changle Palace for half a month, and they have seen so many things during the day. What about before? What about next?
Since the founding of the Yan Kingdom, they have never seen such a favored concubine, who is like a concubine who has bewitched the emperor.
After all, they are not blind, they can still tell whether the emperor is being forced.
Just because the emperor volunteered, this made Xiao Xiruo even more terrifying, like a fox and a demon, forcing them to believe the rumors outside the palace.
She is a demon concubine, absolutely, and there is no one in Dayan who can bear these two words better than her.
Even her aunt, Concubine Xiao, who was said to have conquered the country and conquered the city, and whom the late emperor would never forget until his death...
And just when all the concubines were overwhelmed by jealousy and their expressions became more and more distorted, Queen Mother Hua, who had not shown up for a long time, finally walked into the palace slowly with the support of Yan Jin'er and Hua Suyi.
"You should already know what happened outside the palace..."
Queen Mother Hua lowered her head and coughed twice. Her pretty face was full of exhaustion. However, the exhaustion on her face could not hide the sparkle in her eyes.
"Our Great Yan Dynasty has been inherited for nearly three hundred years. The Ziwei star has been shining in the sky, and the national power has been growing day by day. Who would have expected that such a disaster would happen in the inner palace of the harem, and this disaster was personally appointed by the Ai family to enter the palace. This is so, this is so sad.
It’s a crime of the family…”
Having said this, Queen Mother Hua coughed violently again.
Unlike the concubines below who were jealous of Xiao Xiruo and believed that such a favored person should not exist in the world, Queen Mother Hua was also a believer.
After carefully sorting out Xiao Xiruo's entry into the palace, the Hua family has basically failed to gain favor, let alone expand, and even its former glory is almost gone...
She believed in Dao, believed in heaven, and believed in herself. Now that both Tidao and herself felt that Xiao Xiruo was evil, then Xiao Xiruo should be the one, right?
Listening to the overwhelming petitions outside the palace, and looking at the indignant faces in front of her, Queen Mother Hua felt that this time, Xiao Xiruo's strength would have been exhausted, right?
What about the Xiao family?
Can the Xiao family be compared with all the people in the world and the entire Yan Dynasty?
Can't.
At the same time, in Changle Palace, everyone headed by Wen Susu gathered around Xiao Xiruo. Xue Xiang, Bai Zhi and others wanted to rush out of the palace gate and beat up those fools who were talking nonsense.
"Let the bugs out and bite them!"
Holding the snow jade flute in her hand, Chu Jiaojiao just ran to the door when she was held back by Xue Xue and Bai Zhi who woke up.
They were very angry, but they were also very clear-headed. They knew that beating those ignorant people would not only not solve the problem, but might also bring trouble to their own mothers, making the matter worse.
They only regretted that they had not been able to detect the movements of those ignorant people earlier, so they covered their mother-in-law's ears as soon as possible and told her not to listen or think...
"Your Majesty, the foolish words of the people are nothing to worry about. All you need to do is take good care of your health with peace of mind. The rest of the matter will be handled by the Emperor and the Night King..."
I don't know how many times I felt the pulse of the little imperial concubine in front of me. Wen Susu was really afraid that if she didn't pay attention, the other party would become furious and suddenly fall in front of her.
She knew that the empress had a good nature, but she was a girl of fifteen or sixteen years old and a seriously ill person...
However, before she finished speaking, she saw Xiao Xiruo, who had been sitting at the table for who knows how long, with a pair of bright eyes as calm as water, blinked, and said as if he had just reacted:
"How long have they been having trouble?"
After hearing this, Wen Susu and others paused and said quickly:
"It's almost time for a stick of incense to come back to you...Don't worry, the emperor has already mobilized the imperial army, and they will soon be able to drive away these stupid people, so that they will not dare to cause trouble in front of the palace gate again..."
"disperse?"
Without waiting for Wen Susu and others to react, Xiao Xiruo slammed the table, stood up and asked Xiang Xue to get an umbrella, and hurriedly walked out of the hall.
As he walked, he said indignantly:
"What are you doing to drive them away! Keep them! They have slandered me so much. Let alone the rain, at least let them kneel before me in front of the palace gate for three days and three nights! Otherwise, I will be in great trouble.
