Chapter 1073 The Queen is Domineering
Concubine Han Xian was choked until her face turned pale, and she began to struggle to even breathe.
Concubine Liu Shu quickly said with tears in her eyes, "The Queen..."
Empress Zhen Xi was too lazy to listen and interrupted directly, "I only want to ask you one thing. If the person who is in trouble today is the prince, and it is me who is kneeling in front of you and begging you, what will you do?"
Of course Concubine Liu Shu and Concubine Han Xian knew that they had to follow the Queen's words at this time, but looking at the Queen's sharp eyes, they did not even have the courage to open their mouths.
The smile on the Queen's face was so familiar, as dignified and gentle as before. It was this smile that made both Concubine Liu Shu and Concubine Han Xian feel that the Queen was innocent and good...
But it was not until now that they could really see the sharpness hidden behind the smile.
Sharp as a knife, biting and cold.
Concubine Liu Shu and Concubine Han Xian left in dejection, in a state of embarrassment, and fled.
Lily sent the two of them out of the courtyard before returning to the Queen and said, "Concubine Yu just pushed people in front of the Queen. She may not have the intention to smear your reputation..."
Otherwise, why would Concubine Yu be so cruel and let go of her confidant who she had raised for so many years?
The purpose was to encourage Concubine Liu Shu and Concubine Han Xian to make trouble in front of the Empress. After the Empress refused, they would try to spread rumors that the Empress was selfish, indifferent, and unqualified.
Queen Zhen Xi asked, "Have you prepared all the things I asked you to prepare before?"
Lily nodded and said, "Everything is ready."
Queen Zhen Xi stood up slowly, straightened her appearance briefly, and walked out of Fengyi Palace. She knew what Concubine Yu was planning in her heart, but whether she could achieve it or not depended on her mood.
It's just a pity that she is not in the mood to let Concubine Yu have her way.
Concubine Liu Shu and Concubine Han Xian ran into a wall with the Queen, so they naturally refused to give up. Although they hated Concubine Yu to death, they still went to Yue Yu Palace.
Concubine Yu, who had just made up her mind to stay behind closed doors, had people block the two of them out of the courtyard.
It was not until this time that Concubine Liu Shu and Concubine Han Xian realized that Concubine Yu had turned against her.
Especially Concubine Han Xian, who had been working like a horse with Concubine Yu for so many years, but ended up with such an end, she really felt so regretful that her intestines were light.
But where is the medicine for regret in this world?
It was Concubine Yu who was sitting on the couch in the palace. She looked at Nanny Zhang who was leaving and returning and asked, "Did they leave?"
Mammy Zhang nodded in agreement, "I just left. I looked at the two empresses' lost expressions. I'm afraid that the queen empress is in trouble as well."
Concubine Yu sneered, "The Queen has endured the burden in the palace all these years, and she hates these people who step on her back and act arrogantly. How can she help the second prince now?"
Mother Zhang smiled and said, "It's your mother's clever plan."
"Go and spread the word about the Queen's rejection of Concubine Liu Shu and Concubine Han Xian. Although the Emperor is seriously ill now, he can still see and hear. We must let the Emperor hear with his own ears how selfish and heartless the Queen is." Concubine Yu He waved his hands leisurely and said.
Although the emperor was seriously ill and was still being closely guarded by the emperor, there was obviously turmoil in both the court and the harem.
Concubine Yu has been with the emperor for so many years, and she knows very well that the emperor can be selfish, but will never allow others around her to be selfish. But if the emperor knows that the queen she spends time with is a person who won't even save the prince, how will the emperor react?
I am angry and even more afraid.
After all, the emperor's health is getting worse every day. The emperor is naturally afraid that she, who is indifferent to the second prince today, will treat him in the same way in the future.
And as long as the emperor's heart is shaken, how long can the queen sit in the back seat?
Once the queen is deposed, what is the prince?
“Go and call the third prince, and tell him that I have something to discuss with him.” Concubine Yu looked at Nanny Zhang and ordered.
Concubine Yu was not completely unaware of the third prince's recent actions, but she still thought that she might be able to use some tactful means to get to the final step.
After all, once it comes to forcing a woman to have a baby, there is no turning back. "yes."
Mother Zhang turned and left.
But not long after, Yunyue hurriedly walked in, looked at Concubine Yu and said, "Something has happened! How come the concubine is still sitting here so leisurely?"
Concubine Yu smiled nonchalantly, "If you are talking about Concubine Liu Shu and Concubine Han Xian..."
Yunyue was really anxious and interrupted directly, "I heard that the Queen begged my father to let the Crown Princess adopt Yuanyue!"
"What did you say?"
Concubine Yu stood up in shock!
“The news came from the Imperial Palace. I guess it’s not false. I guess the Queen should have arrived at the Imperial Palace by now.” Yunyue said anxiously.
Concubine Yu's face didn't look much better either.
Fan Qingyao is the Crown Princess and Yunyue's legitimate sister-in-law. Although the royal daughter-in-law has never been allowed to adopt a princess, it is not considered transgression given Fan Qingyao's current status.
Of course Concubine Yu didn't care about a small Yuanyue, but she couldn't help but care about a series of side effects after Fan Qingyao adopted Yunyue.
The Crown Princess has a foreign surname after all, so her relationship with the royal family is far from that of the royal family.
But once Fan Qingyao really adopts Yuanyue, his status will naturally be different from now. People who can raise a princess are not only valued by the royal family, but also trusted by the emperor.
As Fan Qingyao's status rose, naturally the queen and the prince were also affected.
Concubine Yu deliberately cut off her two confidants, Concubine Han Xian and Concubine Liu Shu, in order to instigate them to go to the Empress to plead for mercy, so that she could catch the Empress.
Unexpectedly, the queen had already prepared a backup plan, just waiting to give her a blow in the head!
The more Concubine Yu thought about it, the more headache she got, so she hurriedly led people to the imperial palace. Coincidentally, the empress had just come out of the imperial palace at this moment.
With their eyes facing each other, Concubine Yu almost gritted her teeth and greeted the Queen, "I have met the Queen."
Empress Zhen Xi smiled and said, "Concubine Yu, please get up. What happened in such a hurry?"
Concubine Yu was very angry when she heard that the queen knew what she was asking, but she could only pretend to be nonchalant and said, "I heard that the queen came to visit the emperor, so I wanted to be a companion with the queen."
"If this is the case, Concubine Yu may have lost her life in vain. The Emperor is a little tired and has never seen me. Even the matter of letting the Crown Princess adopt Yuanyue was left to me." Queen Zhenxi knew. Why is Concubine Yu standing here? Naturally, she cannot be disappointed.
Concubine Yu pretended to be surprised and said, "The Crown Princess adopts a princess? This is a bit unreasonable..."
"It is indeed a bit unreasonable, but I have been in low spirits recently and have no time to take care of Yuan Yue, so I thought of letting the Crown Princess do it for me. When the Crown Princess gets married and enters the palace, I will just bring Yuan Yue into the palace. This There are all my children in the harem. I didn’t help the second prince to fall in love with him. I feel very guilty. I can no longer ignore Yuan Yue’s..."
Didn’t Concubine Yu want to make a fuss about the second prince?
Then Queen Zhenxi used the moon to block Concubine Yu’s mouth!
One is a prince who causes harm to the people, and the other is a princess who has lost her mother and concubine since she was a child. Who can tell whether Queen Zhenxi makes such a choice?
Even the emperor did not doubt the queen, otherwise he would not have agreed to let the queen handle it herself!
Concubine Yu was furious, but she had no choice but to watch the queen's retreating back, so she could only return to Yue Yu Palace, trembling all over.
Soon, the news of the Crown Princess adopting Princess Yuanyue spread from inside the palace to outside the palace.
When Fan Qingyao heard about this, he would be lying if he said he was not surprised.
Thousands of words condensed into one sentence...
The Queen is domineering.
