Crazy Queen, Striving to Become the Most Beautiful Lady in the Harem
Chapter 108 First Confrontation
Chen Xier was honored and favored all the way until she reached the position of noble concubine. She enjoyed unlimited glory, and the emperor always favored her and never said a harsh word to her in public.
Today, the Emperor ordered Concubine Xi to be confined to her home for three months. Everyone thought that the Emperor was really angry.
Chen Xier's eyes suddenly widened and her face turned pale in an instant.
She looked at Xie Yu who was sitting in a high seat. At this moment, she could no longer see the warmth and affection in his eyes as before.
Although the emperor did not reveal it in front of everyone, confining her for three months in public was already a severe punishment.
Chen Xier was unable to argue and could only endure it and plan for the next day.
She knelt on the ground, looking at Xie Yu with tears in her eyes. "I will reflect on this in Xianya Palace for three months."
Sun Manrou didn't expect that Zhang Fufa would be beaten to death today, while Chen Xier escaped, but she didn't expect Xiao Cheng to have this trick up his sleeve.
Even she, who is not a very smart person, could see that the account book must be related to Chen Xier, otherwise the emperor would never punish Chen Xier by confining her to her room.
What Sun Manrou could think of, the other concubines present could also see.
But at this time, no one can say anything to displease the emperor?
The emperor just said that the matter ends here, which is to save face for Concubine Xi. Who would be so tactless as to break this window paper?
Xie Yu frowned, his good mood had long since vanished.
"Okay, today's Mid-Autumn Festival family dinner ends here. Imperial Concubine Xi will stay, and you all can go back to your palaces."
Lin Junxue stood up slowly and saluted Xie Yu.
"Your Majesty, I will take my leave."
The other concubines also stood up and said, "I'm leaving now."
Xie Yu looked at Lin Junxue and said, "The Queen, please stay."
Upon seeing this, everyone left one after another according to their positions.
After everyone left, Xie Yu stood up and walked to Chen Xier.
Chen Xier knew she was wrong, so she knelt on the ground without looking up.
Xie Yu just looked at her like that, his eyes seemed like he had never known her before.
Chen Xier didn't dare to say a word. She slowly raised her head, looking pitiful, as if she knew she was wrong.
Lin Junxue just stood on the high platform, looking at the two of them, her eyes without any ripples, only endless indifference.
for a while
Xie Yu looked at Chen Xier and said in a deep voice, "For so many years, I have rewarded you with nothing good. As long as you want it, I will satisfy you. I gave you the position of imperial concubine and gave you wealth and glory. Why do you insist on greedily taking advantage of that money? You are an imperial concubine, and you did something that undermines your status. I am extremely disappointed."
Chen Xier turned pale and staggered as she listened to Xie Yu's words.
She quickly said, "Your Majesty, I was wrong. I shouldn't have had these thoughts. I was really just bewildered. I really know I was wrong."
The irrefutable evidence was before her eyes, and Chen Xier had no way of making excuses.
Now, all she could do was admit her mistake and hope that the emperor would not take this matter too seriously for the sake of their past friendship.
What was even more embarrassing for Chen Xier was that Lin Junxue was still at the scene, allowing her to see this scene.
Xie Yu looked at Chen Xier who admitted her mistake and now didn't want to say anything to her anymore. He was full of disappointment.
He turned to look at Lin Junxue on the high platform and said, "Queen, I'm leaving first. Please send someone to seal the Xian Ya Palace."
After these words were spoken, Chen Xier's face turned even paler.
Lin Junxue sent someone to seal the palace? This is really more painful than killing her.
Of course Xie Yu knew it, but this time he was really angry.
Xie Yu finished speaking with a cold face, not even looking at Chen Xier who was kneeling on the ground.
Chen Xi called out "Your Majesty" without giving up.
But Xie Yu acted as if he didn't hear anything. He left without stopping, taking Gao Cheng and his attendants with him. In the end, only Lin Junxue was left with Qiao Xin, Chen Xier and Zi Shuang.
Chen Xier stood up with the help of Zi Shuang. She turned around and looked at Lin Junxue who was standing on a high place, with a gloomy look in her eyes.
If she still doesn't understand by now that everything that happened today was a trap set by Lin Junxue, then she would be a complete fool.
In the past, she had always schemed against Lin Junxue, who had no power to resist at all. Now, she had been schemed against by Lin Junxue without making a sound.
Lin Junxue had an indifferent expression as she looked at Chen Xier, who could not hide her hatred. She was graceful and imposing.
She just smiled slightly, and that smile pierced directly into Chen Xier's heart.
Seeing that there was no one around, Chen Xier simply stopped pretending and sneered.
She said to Lin Junxue, "Queen, Queen, today, you set up a beautiful game. I have to admit that you are better than me. It's really a changing world. In the past, you claimed to be noble and didn't participate in palace fighting. You looked down on other people's tricks. Now, aren't you using tricks to plot against me?"
Lin Junxue raised the corners of her eyes slightly, her eyes moved, and the corners of her lips curled up slightly.
"What are you talking about, Imperial Concubine Xi? I really don't understand. What is this situation? What does this matter have to do with me today? I have said what I should say to help you, and I have also asked for favors for you. Imperial Concubine Xi, you really don't know how to appreciate a good person."
Chen Xier stared at the calm Lin Junxue and gritted her teeth.
I didn't expect that Lin Junxue would still not admit that it was her who set up the trap.
Chen Xier gritted her teeth and said, "Queen, there are only you and me here. Is there any point in pretending? Originally, the dancer had the empress dowager's dowry on her body, and I didn't know who wanted to frame me? When Xiao Cheng came out, I knew it, Queen, you are so calculating. Xiao Cheng has been your man for a long time. Don't think I don't know. Your plan today first forced me to abandon Zhang Fufa, who I have cultivated for so many years. Zhang Fufa could not escape the blame, and Xiao Cheng successfully took back the power of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. When I let down my guard, you asked Xiao Cheng to present the account book he found to the emperor. The account book confirmed that it was the silver that Zhang Fufa and I had embezzled together, which made the emperor furious. In the end, he ordered me to be confined to my house. Queen, Queen, I really underestimated you."
Lin Junxue listened to Chen Xier's words calmly, with her facial expression still unchanged.
Chen Xier has been fighting in the palace for so many years and has gained Xie Yu's favor. It would be unreasonable if she couldn't even see this now.
Lin Junxue put her hand on Qiao Xin's wrist and walked step by step to Chen Xier. The two women stood opposite each other.
Lin Junxue said slowly, "Imperial Concubine Xi, I will repay you for your previous framing and confinement. We have a long way to go, but you will stay in Xianya Palace for the next three months. Don't worry, I will never do without you."
Chen Xier looked at Lin Junxue's beautiful face and gnashed her teeth in hatred.
She said, "Sure enough, you were just pretending before, Lin Junxue, you hate me so much, I was careless this time, but do you really think you can sow discord between me and the emperor? The emperor and I have been friends for many years. Today, even if he was angry, he didn't make the account book public, which means that the emperor has me in his heart."
