Harem Daily Life

When a group of people came out, He Linzhang narrowed his eyes.

Shu Fei was held by a woman and walked in front, with a dagger against her neck.

Fan Liangyi and Tao Liangyi were not caught, but their situation was not much better. Both of them and their maids were tied up with ropes wrapped around their bodies. For the emperor, it was a great shame to have his own women tied up!

The women of the Shu family relied on their numbers, and Shu Fei and the others were no match for them. He Linzhang shook his head helplessly. In the end, it was because he had not thought it through and let the beauties suffer.

As soon as Shu Fei saw the emperor, her suppressed tears were about to roll out. She wanted to cry and complain, and she looked very pitiful.

Fan Liangyi had already started calling out to the emperor, and each cry of "Your Majesty, help me" made Tao Yanyan, who was standing beside him, appear extremely calm.

He Linzhang glanced at Tao Yanyan calmly. After not seeing her for seven or eight days, the girl looked pretty good. But what did she mean by glaring at him? Was she still throwing a tantrum?

Seeing that they had no injuries, He Linzhang withdrew his gaze and said, "You Shu family are really great. You are so bold as to kidnap a concubine? Good, that's great. It seems that you really think your life is too long."

"Come here, the Shu family is planning a rebellion. Anyone who resists, regardless of gender, will be killed without mercy!"

At the command, many guards would step forward with their swords drawn.

"Wait!" The woman holding Shu Fei shouted, "If you dare to move, I will kill her first!"

The emperor raised his hand, and the roof was filled with fully armed archers, all aiming their arrows at the Shu family.

"If you want to live, stand on the left. Those who resist will eventually die." As soon as the emperor finished speaking, several members of the Shu family rolled and crawled to the emperor's left side and ran into the encirclement of the guards.

When the old lady of the Shu family saw this, she ran to Tao Liangyi's side despite her old age and controlled her in her hands while she was tied up with ropes.

"Emperor, do you really want to watch your beautiful concubine die?"

Before He Linzhang could speak, Tao Yanyan said loudly: "You also know that I am just a concubine, with only the title of Liangyi. How important do you think I am in the heart of His Majesty? I am not afraid to tell you, old woman, that I am the daughter of a fifth-rank official. I have never been favored since I entered the palace. His Majesty dislikes me the most. There is no point in you arresting me. I can't threaten His Majesty at all!"

After that, she turned to the Shu family and said, "Some of you are not members of the Shu family. You are just servants and maids. Do you really want to sacrifice your lives for the Shu family who are harming the people? Think about your parents, your children, and the rest of your life. Do you really want to die today?"

"If you don't want to die, run to the left quickly!" After she yelled, she saw several maids who were holding Qingfeng and Mingyue let go of their hands and hurriedly ran to the left.

"Qingfeng, Mingyue, hurry up and leave too. What are you standing there for?" After being urged, the two of them were pulled to the left by a little maid from the Shu family before they could react.

Old Madam Shu didn't expect that this little girl would dare to incite the Shu family to rebel under her nose. She raised her skinny hand and wanted to slap Tao Yanyan in the face.

But one arrow had already pierced her, and another arrow also hit the woman holding the dagger against Shu Fei. An old man and a young man fell to the ground, and the guards rushed forward and attacked the scattered Shu family members.

The emperor went to Shufei first, took advantage of the chaos to hold her, held her in his arms, and then handed her over to the guards to be escorted away.

He turned around to look at Tao Yanyan, but only saw the little girl staring blankly at Madam Shu who had fallen to the ground, without moving a step.

Qi Yizheng had already come to Tao Liangyi and untied the ropes on her. He was about to escort her to a safe place when he saw He Linzhang walking up to him and picking up the stunned Tao Yanyan.

Tao Yanyan was exhausted and trembling. It was the first time she saw a dead person up close. The scene was so shocking that it was an unforgettable nightmare!

"Don't be afraid, I'm here. I'll take you away from here." A deep voice came, just like seven or eight days ago, when he covered her belly and whispered softly.

But Tao Yanyan didn't have any romantic thoughts at this time. There was only bright red blood in her eyes, and the only thing left was an old lady who had been holding her tightly in the last second and fell to the ground and died in the next second.

After returning to the palace, Shu Fei was still in shock. She didn't understand why it was supposed to be a glorious visit, but ended up like that?

When Mingming was leaving the palace, the Queen Mother held her hand and asked her to visit her old friend when she passed by the Shu family in Lincheng.

Now that all the old friends have become dead, this branch of the Shu family is completely finished.

Shu Fei no longer dared to think about whether the main branch of the Shu family in the capital would be implicated. All she could feel now was heartbroken. She was heartbroken that her cousin the emperor, her husband, was clearly investigating the Shu family's affairs but had not revealed anything to her and had even taken the initiative to ask her to come and visit her relatives.

If she had been careless, if she had made the slightest mistake, she might have become a dead soul under the dagger.

By eradicating the Shu family, the emperor had achieved half of the purpose of this trip.

As early as a year ago, news about the Shu family had been coming in. He sent people to investigate and verified them one by one before deciding to eliminate them in one fell swoop while heading south.

As for letting Shu Fei and the others go on this journey, it did have the feel of setting bait. If the Shu family was grateful for the emperor's grace and stopped and surrendered, he would not have made things difficult for the women of the Shu family. At most, all the men would have been exiled. However, he did not expect that the Shu family was so stubborn and even openly kidnapped concubines. This was courting death, and it would not be an exaggeration even if they were all beheaded. He would not have to apologize to the Queen Mother.

However, there was still a loophole, which frightened his concubines.

The one who was most frightened was Tao Yanyan, who was the calmest at the time and even instigated the Shu family's servants to rebel before the battle.

In order to compensate her, He Linzhang stayed at her place for the past two days.

"Still can't sleep?" He Linzhang patted Tao Yanyan's back and kissed her forehead: "I'm here."

Tao Yanyan was too lazy to reply to him. In fact, she just had more nightmares now. She was still traumatized and it would take time to heal.

"If you can't sleep, then let's do something we can do at night?" He Linzhang hugged the beauty, turned over, pressed her down, and kissed her.

Tao Yanyan is very upset now. She is still resentful about He Linzhang treating them as non-human beings and allowing them to be in danger.

She barely dodged it and covered He Linzhang's lips with her hand.

"Your Majesty, I am not feeling well. I just want to go to bed early and don't want to do anything else."

He Linzhang had no choice but to continue lying down: "Are you still blaming me? It's clearly written in your eyes: I am a bad person."
