Comprehensive film and television: The cool life of the female supporting role after the cross-dress

Concubine Cao breathed a sigh of relief. Shen Meizhuang's family background and appearance were both good. According to her observation, she was also a dignified and gentle person with some knowledge of poetry and literature.

According to the emperor's current preferences, it is only a matter of time before Shen Meizhuang becomes favored, so she is worried that she will not be able to control Shen Meizhuang.

Where should she and Wen Yi put their reputation at that time?

Fortunately, the Queen Mother took drastic measures and severely punished Shen Meizhuang in front of all the concubines on such an important day when the whole palace was gathered for an audience.

On the way back, Shen Meizhuang happened to pass by the emperor, but she was so focused on the pain in her hands and the confusion about the future that she did not see the emperor.

But the emperor saw her from a distance.

She really looked too miserable, and her action of raising her swollen hands brought back a memory that the emperor could not bear to recall.

"Su Peisheng!" The emperor felt a pain in his palm and pointed at Shen Meizhuang and asked, "Who is that?"

Su Peisheng looked in the direction the emperor pointed, his heart skipped a beat, and he also remembered the Waterloo in his career.

Wiping the sweat from her forehead, she looked guiltily into the emperor's questioning eyes and replied with a wry smile, "Your Majesty, it was Concubine Shen. She came out of Kunning Palace from the direction she was heading."

"Ouch!"

The emperor kicked Su Peisheng on the butt in a personal revenge: "What you said is nonsense. Of course I know that she came from Kunning Palace."

Apart from the Queen, who else in the palace would dare to have a ruler and a board, and who else would dare to use a ruler and a board to beat the concubines like this.

He dared to say that even Nian Shilan nowadays was not so vicious.

"I want you to go and see what the situation is."

Su Peisheng rolled his eyes at the emperor, but ran over briskly to inquire.

"Your Majesty, the whole palace is here to see you today. The Empress has learned that Shen Concubine violated palace rules yesterday and left the palace without permission to visit Wan Concubine at Suiyuxuan, so she is being punished."

The emperor read it again: "Mrs. Shen?"

"Yes, the Queen has already issued an imperial decree to demote her."

The emperor nodded, calmly pulling Su Peisheng around and said, "Well, I remember I have some memorials to review. Go tell the queen that I will stay in the Yangxin Palace for the next few days."

"Your Majesty, this." Su Peisheng said reluctantly, "You are making things difficult for me. The new bride should sleep with you today. If the Empress Dowager knows that you are staying in the Yangxin Palace..."

Nonsense, of course he knew that the new bride should start sleeping with him today.

But in the current situation, how could he dare to do that?

If he turns around and favors someone the Queen dislikes, and causes him to be beaten as well, that would be a complete loss of face and honor.

The emperor patted Su Peisheng's shoulder heavily and said, "Su Peisheng, you are the one I trust the most all along."

Su Peisheng: “…” Do you think I believe it?

"I will leave this matter to you. Please make sure it is done. I will stay out of the spotlight for the next few days. No, I will go to handle official business first, important matters of the court!"

After the emperor finished giving his instructions, he instantly felt like his breathing became smoother and he walked away in a leisurely manner.

As he walked, he hummed a little tune, just like an old man with nothing to do, strolling around the yard with a bird in his hand.

Su Peisheng: You are amazing, you are noble!

In Kunning Palace, Zhen Huan saw that the Queen would beat her or demote her at her command, and only then did she finally realize that this was the Forbidden City, not outside the palace.

Sister Mei, who was joking with her yesterday and had just come to pay her respects, was beaten in public and was almost carried back to the palace by the servants.

Her heart was in turmoil, and she no longer had the confidence and righteousness she had before.

Concubine Hua was playing with the armor calmly, and she was in a wonderful mood.

After becoming a concubine, she had never had such a wonderful day. Finally, someone was suffering the same hardships as she had suffered. Although Yun Ruofang was also beaten in those days, it was not as miserable as her.

"Speaking of Concubine Shen, no, it was Concubine Shen who violated the palace rules, or it was to visit Concubine Wan, what a deep sisterly love."

Concubine Hua spoke in a malicious and sarcastic tone, which made Zhen Huan's face turn red all the way to her ears and neck.

He does not mean that.

Wang Ruofu already knew that Zhen Huan looked like the original owner's sister, Ulanara Rouze, and she felt inexplicably uncomfortable when Concubine Hua mentioned the word "sisters".

He coughed twice deliberately before saying, "Wan Changzai, it's time to talk to you now."

Zhen Huan was already scared, but she felt that she and her sister Mei were not guilty of such a crime, and there was nothing wrong with her plain clothes.

"If the Empress doesn't like my outfit, I won't wear it anymore. But I don't want to be different, and I definitely don't mean to curse the Empress and the Emperor."

"If the Queen is determined to punish me for this, I can only say that she is a culprit."

After saying this, Zhen Huan straightened her chest and back with an iron will, and stared straight ahead at the floor.

What a bright and sunny day! The clear ones are naturally clear.

"Tsk, the emperor is not here again, who is Concubine Wan pretending to be here for?"

A female voice suddenly came from among the newlyweds, which was exactly what the concubines were thinking at the moment, and they looked over with curiosity.

It turned out that Xia Dongchun took a sip of her tea and complained to An Lingrong behind her in a low voice.

An Lingrong had been frightened since the Queen got angry and wished that everyone could not see her. Seeing Xia Dongchun being so reckless, she suddenly became angry and anxious.

It would be fine if Xia Dongchun didn't speak, but as soon as she spoke, Concubine Hua would think of her.

Hua Fei's face changed: "I heard that there is a Xia Changzai who is very capable. I wonder who she is?"

Hearing this, Xia Dongchun wanted to turn around and show off, but his lower body was numb from kneeling, and he stumbled as soon as he moved: "Ouch!"

"Puchi——" Hua Fei covered her lips and laughed mockingly.

Xia Dongchun's right elbow and forearm were supported on the ground, and his whole body fell to the ground in a strange posture. He had a painful expression and his upper and lower lips formed an "O" shape.

Hearing Concubine Hua's laughter, Xia Dongchun said with embarrassment, "I am Concubine Xia."

"So it's you. Seeing is believing." Concubine Hua joked.

She had no intention of settling any scores with Xia Dongchun. It would be lowering her status to argue with such a fool, so she just asked, "You just said that Wan Chang was pretending? I just want to ask, what is she pretending?"

"This." Xia Dongchun glanced at Zhen Huan and said in a delicate voice.

"On the day of the palace selection, I noticed this Concubine Wan, who was also wearing plain clothes like today. According to me, Concubine Wan really doesn't take the palace selection seriously at all."

Zhen Huan was extremely depressed and couldn't understand why Xia Dongchun wanted to step on her.

"Haha." Concubine Yun laughed a few times, fanned herself slowly, and looked at Zhen Huan with admiration, "You have misunderstood that Concubine Wan is here. It's not that I don't value her, I clearly value her very much."
