After his inner voice was read, the little cannon fodder became the darling of the world
Chapter 17 Kneeling as punishment
Xue Huaian nodded: "Everything has been arranged almost."
Prime Minister Xue breathed a sigh of relief and took out a banknote from his pocket: "That's good! This is a banknote of 50,000 taels, you can use it first.
This fire not only burned down two of the best courtyards, but also burned the 100,000 taels of silver notes I prepared for you.
Bad luck, bad luck. "
Before Xue Huaian left, he said, "The Ministry of Justice has accepted Nangong Sheng's complaint, and His Highness said he would find a way to deal with it."
"Okay, go back quickly, don't let anyone see you and use it as an excuse for deserting your post."
Renhe Palace.
afternoon.
Concubine Xue was feeling a little sleepy and was about to take a nap.
Nanny An, the personal attendant, hurried into the inner hall with a letter in her hand: "Your Highness, His Highness has sent someone to deliver a letter to you."
Concubine Xue sat up straight.
"Bring it quickly!"
The emperor's matter has reached a critical moment and there can be no mistakes. There must be something I need to do.
After reading the letter, Concubine Xue said calmly, "Put on your makeup and change your clothes!"
Nanny An and the palace maids followed instructions and got busy with their movements swiftly.
It didn't take long before everything was cleaned up.
Concubine Xue looked at herself in the bronze mirror and stood up with satisfaction.
"Let's go to the imperial study room."
A group of people arrived at the imperial study in a grand manner, but were stopped by Eunuch Wei.
"Your Majesty, the Emperor has given instructions. I am busy right now and cannot see anyone."
"How dare you, even I dare to stop you? Lai Fu, you are becoming more and more unruly, why don't you get out of here?"
Eunuch Wei remained unmoved.
"Your Majesty, this is the Emperor's order. I'm sorry I can't obey it!"
"You little dog slave..." Concubine Xue raised her hand to hit him.
"Laifu, let her in."
Emperor Dong Ling's cold voice came out.
"Humph!"
Concubine Xue snorted at Eunuch Wei and stepped into the imperial study.
Emperor Dongling didn't even raise his head.
“Xue Lin, you are so majestic!
Why are you showing off in the Imperial Study instead of staying in your Renhe Palace? "
Concubine Xue, who had been so domineering before, now had a fawning smile on her face.
"Your Majesty, I made some cakes, fresh out of the oven, and brought them here for you to try."
Emperor Dongling was still busy with his own affairs.
"If you just came to deliver cakes, then the cakes have been delivered and you can leave."
The smile on Concubine Xue’s face froze.
"I came to see the emperor to ask for mercy from the emperor and ask the emperor to send a royal doctor to the prime minister's residence to help my father heal his wounds.
The second is to ask the emperor to grant Li Yulin a marriage and let Nangong Yunxue be Li Yulin's second wife. "
Emperor Dongling's face turned as dark as ink when he heard this.
"How dare you ask me to send a doctor? Prime Minister Xue and his men were struck by lightning, and you want me to go against the will of heaven? What are you thinking?
As for the matter of arranging a marriage, you have already done something extreme. Now you ask me to arrange a marriage for you, what do you think of me?
Do you think you are a knife that extinguishes the conscience? You have a good calculation!
I don't want to see you now, so kneel outside for two hours, then go back to your Renhe Palace and reflect on your actions."
"emperor!"
"You don't have to kneel! From now on, you will copy scriptures in Renhe Palace and don't go out."
Concubine Xue's face turned pale as she left the imperial study.
He gritted his teeth in hatred and wanted to just storm out, but after thinking about his bigger plan, he forced himself to kneel down outside the imperial study.
Humph, I'll let you act like an emperor for a few more days.
When the time comes, I will crush you like a stink bug.
After kneeling for an hour, Concubine Xue felt pain in her knees and pretended to faint. She was taken back to Renhe Palace by her own people.
When all the concubines in the harem found out, they all went to see the joke under the pretext of visiting.
The mother of the third prince Liu Zhi, Concubine Zheng Shufei, walked towards Concubine Xue with a smile on her face.
"Sister Imperial Concubine, I heard that you fainted outside the Imperial Study. I was extremely worried and came to visit you.
Judging from your complexion, you've recovered well and should be fine in a while.
If that doesn't work, ask the imperial physician to take your pulse, so you can feel more at ease."
Concubine Xue was extremely angry, but she still maintained her dignity on the surface.
"Sister Shufei is so thoughtful. I am fine now. Please go back."
"No, we sisters are usually busy with our own things, and it's rare for us to have time to get together."
After saying that, he pushed Concubine De beside him.
Defei was pushed forward and had no choice but to nod in agreement.
"Shufei is right, sister Guifei, let's have a good talk."
Concubine Xue, who was originally fine, became so angry that she kept her anger in her heart.
After finally sending the person away, I finally felt better after smashing a set of fine tea sets.
The nanny stepped forward to comfort her: "My lady, you don't need to bother with them. It's not worth getting yourself upset.
The day after tomorrow is the Queen Mother's birthday banquet, so I believe Nangong Xue will come to the palace.
The Queen is taking care of that disabled man and will definitely not attend the birthday banquet. As the highest-ranking concubine in the harem, don't you have the final say in everything?
When the time comes, when the person arrives in your territory, won't you be able to control him?"
Concubine Xue thought for a moment and said, "That's right. I want to see how that village woman is so slippery that she can escape again and again."
The atmosphere here is smooth.
On the other side, the emperor snorted coldly as soon as Concubine Xue and others left.
"Does she think that if she is given some color, she can open a dyeing house? I want to see how far they can go to commit suicide."
Eunuch Wei bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I don't think Concubine Xue is really dizzy."
“She’s fine!
The queen devoted herself to Hao'er and pushed all the affairs of the harem to her.
She has power in her hands, and she has been able to get a lot of good things into her mouth.
Over the years, I just turned a blind eye and didn't bother with her."
Eunuch Wei sighed.
"Your Majesty is right. Imperial Concubine Xue has been in charge of the harem for several years. Judging from her complexion, she has eaten a lot of good food. It doesn't make sense that she would faint in such a short time.
Your Majesty, please talk to the Empress. If not for anything else, you should at least think about the Fifth Prince. He is also her son!
It was fine before, but the current situation..."
Emperor Dongling put down what he was doing.
"You are right. I have to talk to the Queen."
Kunning Palace.
Liu Hao sat in a wheelchair, staring blankly at two little birds chasing and playing in the treetops.
Five years ago, I was careless and got framed and injured my leg. I have been trapped in the Kunning Palace for five years.
During these five years, Liu Hao did not suffer any hardship except that he could not move his legs, thanks to the careful care of his mother.
But as proud as Liu Hao is, he is like an eagle with broken wings, his heart is dead, and no matter how beautiful the scenery is, it has lost its color.
Not far away, Queen Chen was holding a plate of cakes. She adjusted her facial expression before approaching her son.
"Hao'er, try the sweet-scented osmanthus cake made by your mother."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, mother!"
In order not to make his mother too sad, Liu Hao obediently picked up a piece of osmanthus cake and took a bite.
"Mm, soft, sweet and delicious!"
Queen Chen gently smoothed Liu Hao's hair.
"Hao'er, my mother has received some good news. Do you want to hear it?"
