Fast wear: lying down life, so delicious

Zhongcuigong

There was singing, dancing, laughter and joy in the palace.

The third-day bathing ceremony had ended and the child had long been taken away by the wet nurse and the maids.

Concubine Gao sat in the first seat, staring at the dancers in the hall with empty eyes, but her thoughts drifted far away.

The queen did not bring the prince with her. She just showed up and left in a hurry without any intention of staying.

Concubine Yun did not even show her face, but only sent someone to explain her special situation and ask for Concubine Gao's forgiveness. She also sent someone to deliver a gift to express her blessing for the child.

As for the other high-ranking concubines who received the invitation, most of them did not come in person. Some, like Concubine Yun, sent messengers to present gifts on their behalf; others even sent the messengers back to bring the gifts along. However, all the lower-ranking concubines came.

We were expecting important people to arrive, but in the end they didn’t show up.

Although she had long anticipated that such a situation might occur, and the Beidi side had already made arrangements to deal with it.

However, when this day finally came, she truly realized her current predicament.

Since the birth of the crown prince, the queen's position has become more and more stable. But with Concubine Yun becoming pregnant again, her position is even more precarious.

Once upon a time, she had fantasized about letting the child born by her daughter inherit the throne and become the emperor of the Great Qi, thereby ensuring a hundred years of prosperity and wealth for the Gao family.

But now, all of this has come to nothing.

The more she thought about it, the stronger the hatred in her heart became!

The Queen, Concubine Yun, and that bastard Prince, they are all so troublesome, so don't blame her for being rude!

Once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back. She could only hope that the white tiger could be more powerful and not let her painstaking efforts go to waste.

Concubine Gao turned her gaze towards Tuoba Jiao who was performing. She saw her delicate hands plucking the strings quickly with her slender fingers.

The sound of the piano is sharp and high-pitched, yet not abrupt or harsh. It is as if countless horses are galloping past, majestic and exciting.

This was the legendary horse-head fiddle music! Once when Tuoba Hong was drunk, he had shown her the unique music manipulation method of the Tuoba royal family, which was their secret!

Tuoba Jiao had a bright and flamboyant smile on his face, and his eyes were shining brightly.

She opened her red lips and began to sing: "The north wind blows the white grass to the ground, and snow falls in the eighth month of the year..." Her voice was melodious and clear, like a nightingale, echoing in the air.

As the song sounded, a snow-white tiger slowly walked out from behind the scenes. It had a strong posture and graceful steps, like a true king.

Tuoba Jiao's singing became louder and louder, and the white tiger began to dance to the rhythm. Its movements were light and flexible, and every step was full of power and majesty.

The people in the audience were amazed and talked among themselves. Their eyes were attracted by the white tiger and they revealed surprise and admiration.

Tuoba Jiao looked at Concubine Gao complacently, with a scornful smile on his lips.

She secretly sneered in her heart: "Even if you are a high and mighty imperial concubine, so what? In the end, don't you still need to rely on my white tiger to complete the task?"

She knew that her white tiger was the highlight of the show and the focus of her operation.

When she saw everyone's astonished expressions, an indescribable pleasure surged in her heart.

She imagined that when her Beidi conquered Daqi and her elder brother inherited the throne of Beidi, she would become the queen of Daqi and together with her elder brother, she would plant the flags of Beidi all over the world and become the king of this land!

All the people in front of her will kneel down before her one by one.

At this moment, a sharp sound of piano was heard. When Baihu heard this sound, his body trembled violently.

The white tiger, which had been docile just now, suddenly became extremely ferocious, as if it had changed its appearance.

It bared its sharp fangs, let out a roar, and then rushed out of the palace at an astonishing speed, as if looking for something.

"The White Tiger is out of control..." Tuoba Jiao screamed in horror.

The entire Zhongcui Palace was thrown into chaos. People panicked and fled in all directions.

Concubine Gao stood there in a daze, watching the white tiger rush out of the palace like a whirlwind and head straight for Yuehua Palace. Her heart was filled with hope.

While Gao Guifei was imagining that Concubine Yun and the Crown Prince in Yilan Palace were torn apart and swallowed alive by the white tiger, she arranged for people to comfort everyone in the palace and clean up the mess.

Just as Concubine Gao was immersed in her own fantasy, she suddenly heard a noise again. She frowned and asked impatiently, "What's going on? What happened outside again?"

A palace maid ran in hurriedly and reported, "Your Highness, a group of imperial guards have come from outside. They are armed with swords and other weapons and have directly broken into the Zhongcui Palace! Now the entire palace has been surrounded by them!"

Concubine Gao was startled and quickly stood up with a panic-stricken expression on her face.

She thought to herself, "Could it be that the truth has been revealed so quickly? Are these guards here to arrest me?"

As an insider, Caiyun was so frightened that her face turned pale. She tightly grasped Concubine Gao's arm and said in a trembling voice: "My Lady, what should we do? What should we do?"

Concubine Gao took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down. She patted Caiyun's hand and comforted her, "Don't panic, go out and check the situation first."

The two men hurried to the door and saw a group of royal guards lined up neatly in the courtyard, holding sharp swords in their hands. The atmosphere was tense and depressing.

Concubine Gao pretended to be calm as she walked forward and asked loudly, "Who are you? How dare you trespass into my bedroom!"

A guard stepped forward and said respectfully, "Reporting to the Imperial Concubine, we are here on the orders of the Emperor to surround Zhongcui Palace and Lizhu Palace and capture Gao Yueru and Tuoba Jiao. Please do not embarrass us, Imperial Concubine."

Concubine Gao's face turned pale instantly, and she realized that her plan might have failed. But she still pretended to be calm and said coldly: "How dare you! I am the current concubine, how can I allow you to be so rude! Do you have any evidence to prove what crime I have committed?"

The guards remained silent and just carried out the emperor's orders firmly. Concubine Gao knew that it was futile to argue at this time, and could only helplessly watch the guards take her and Caiyun away.

At the same time, another team of guards also arrived at Lizhu Palace. Tuoba Jiao, who had just returned, was also shocked and confused, but she was not as panicked as Concubine Gao. She calmly thought about how to deal with the next step.

The guards quickly surrounded the Lizhu Palace and announced the emperor's will. Tuoba Jiao stood there without saying a word, with a complex light flashing in his eyes.
