Chapter 93 Concubine Liang's Defense Breaks

Xie Chen paused while twisting Pei Tingyue's hair, then looked at Liang Yao who had hurried over to report: "Tell Concubine Liang to let her go back."

Liang Yao agreed and went out to report.

Pei Tingyue raised her head and said, "Empress Liang must have something urgent to do so late at night. Isn't the Emperor here to see you?"

Xie Chen lowered his eyes and looked at the pretty little face, "You were clearly bullied by her, why are you still speaking up for her?"

Pei Tingyue looked puzzled: "Bullying?"

Xie Chen reminded: "In front of Chengming Palace, her maid said something very harsh to you."

"Your Majesty, that's what I was talking about. I almost forgot about it." Pei Tingyue seemed to remember something. "Empress Liang is quite nice. She even helped me deliver the cakes. It was her maid who was ignorant and spoke rudely. If I have to make a fuss, I'll make it with that maid. Why would I make a fuss with Empress Liang?"

Xie Chen said, "It's not just this maid. The recent rumors in the palace are also caused by another maid of Concubine Liang."

Pei Tingyue was stunned.

"Don't worry." Xie Chen lowered his head and kissed her pale cheek. "I have already punished these two palace maids to vent your anger."

Pei Tingyue touched the place he had kissed: "So, Concubine Liang is here to beg for mercy?"

"Yeah." Xie Chen moved closer and closer to her until their noses touched. "I don't plan to change the order, so I don't want to see her now."

Pei Tingyue was surprised.

Was it because of Concubine Shen Liang's maid that she was angry? Concubine Liang went outside the palace in the middle of the night and didn't even show up.

Or is she more important than Concubine Shen Liang in the emperor's heart?

Pei Tingyue was lost in thought when she felt a sudden pain on her lips. Xie Chen was squinting at her, "I'm talking to you, why aren't you paying attention?"

Pei Tingyue hooked her arm around his neck, nuzzled his nose affectionately, and looked straight into his dark eyes and said, "Then will the emperor be willing to punish me?"

Xie Chen looked at her delicate lips opening and closing, and his throat rolled over. "I'm reluctant, but Tingyue can atone for my sins."

Pei Tingyue smiled brightly and kissed him.

She wasn't worried about what to do later.

Because she didn't believe that Concubine Shen Liang would leave so easily. Since she didn't leave and kept kneeling outside the palace, how could the emperor have the mind to do that with her?

Outside the palace.

Concubine Shen Liang's lips were pale, and she was wearing only a thin moon-white dress, waiting outside stubbornly.

Seeing Liang Yao coming out, she hurriedly went to greet him: "Butler, what did the emperor say?"

Liang Yao sighed and shook his head.

A trace of disbelief appeared on Concubine Shen Liang's cold and incomparable face. She seemed to be unable to stand steadily and staggered back twice.

After being supported by the palace maid, she grabbed Liang Yao's arm and asked, "But the emperor is in the palace and didn't hear my voice. Eunuch Liang, did you specifically say that it was me who came?"

"The Emperor knows that it is the Empress who has arrived." Liang Yao looked at her with an embarrassed expression, "But the maids around the Empress have been making mistakes frequently, and the Emperor is inevitably displeased. The Emperor does not want to see you now."

The emperor doesn't want to see her?

She had never heard these words in all her years in the palace.

Concubine Shen Liang felt as if her heart was crushed, and her vision became increasingly blurry. Under normal circumstances, she would have turned around and left after such a huge loss of face, but not today.

Two of her maids were taken away, their fate uncertain, and she had to save them. Not only did they have a master-servant relationship with her, but they were also her confidants. If she got involved, everything she did would be very difficult.

Concubine Shen Liang held back her tears, knelt down in front of the palace, and shouted again: "Your servant Shen Yuyao, begs to see the emperor."

Liang Yao was helpless: "Empress Liang, why are you doing this? When the emperor calms down, he will come to see you naturally."

Concubine Shen Liang forced a smile and said to him, "I hope the steward will go in and report again. I will be very grateful."

Liang Yao knew that if he went to report it again, the result would be the same. But if he didn't go in and Concubine Shen Liang just kept kneeling here, it wouldn't last long. He had no choice but to pretend to go in.

After a while, he came out and reported: "Your Majesty, the Emperor asked you to go back."

Concubine Shen Liang's face turned even paler, her body swayed, and finally she collapsed to the ground.

Liang Yao helped the person up and said, "Your Majesty, you won't be able to see the Emperor no matter how long you kneel today. It's better to go back first. When the storm is over, the Emperor will see you without you having to beg."

Concubine Shen Liang was in a state of dismay. She was supported by two palace maids and walked out in a daze.

When they were almost at the gate of Changle Palace, a palace maid ran over and knelt in front of Concubine Shen Liang: "My Lady Liang, I heard that those people want to execute Sister Yuling and Sister Yun'er."

Concubine Shen Liang regained her composure and asked in a lost voice, "What did you say?!"

She had never imagined that Ah Chen would actually execute her two maids. Yun'er was fine, but what about Yuling? Ah Chen knew that she and Yuling were like sisters, so why would he still execute her?

Your Majesty, are you really going to be so cruel to her?

Concubine Shen Liang's breathing became rapid, and she went towards the back hall again, and this time she wanted to force her way in!

Seeing this, Liang Yao and other imperial attendants hurried to stop her, "Empress Liang, you can't do this!"

Concubine Shen Liang had already lost half of her sanity and would not tolerate anyone else's persuasion. She insisted on seeing the emperor.

Seeing the palace maids and eunuchs trying to stop her, she pulled out the jade hairpin on her head and pressed it against her neck, "Try to move again!"

Now no one dared to move, and she quickly walked into the back hall.

Looking at her back, Liang Yao's eyes went darker and darker.

He was afraid that the monthly allowance he had just restored would be gone again.

This time, he was lucky.

What hatred or grudge did Qin Baolin and Shen Liangfei have against him? Why did they treat him like this?

Inside the hall.

Concubine Shen Liang held the jade hairpin and walked inside in the dim candlelight. She finally stopped at the door of the bedroom, and through the pearl curtain she saw a scene that made her eyes burst with anger.

Ah Chen and Concubine Pei were kissing each other passionately.

Concubine Shen Liang felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave, letting the cold air run through her body, making her shiver with cold.

When they were making love in the past, she had also asked for such intimacy, but Ah Chen said he didn't like it, so the matter was dropped. From then on, she never mentioned it again.

But what is Ah Chen doing now?

He held Pei Jieyu's face and kissed her gently, as if he had obtained some rare treasure.

Didn’t you say you don’t like it?

Or, he doesn't like her, but likes Pei Jieyu?

Concubine Shen Liang had forgotten that she had barged in to beg for mercy, and she had completely lost all her rationality.

"What are you doing?!"

This cold shout made the two people in front of the dressing table look over.

Pei Tingyue stood up awkwardly and bowed: "Greetings, Madam Liang Fei."

Xie Chen's eyes flashed with displeasure. He stood in front of Pei Tingyue and looked at Concubine Shen Liang through the beaded curtain: "Yuyao, you barged in with a jade hairpin in your hand. Are you trying to kill the king?"

Concubine Shen Liang looked at the hairpin in her hand and threw it down in panic. Then she raised her face, pointed behind him, and said in a trembling voice, "What was the emperor doing just now?"

Xie Chen didn't answer her question, but just scolded: "Get out."

These cold words pierced Concubine Shen Liang's nerves. She could no longer bear it, and suddenly pushed aside the bead curtain, pointing at Pei Tingyue behind him and said, "Did she seduce you?"

Xie Chen's forehead veins throbbed, and he changed the name he had been calling: "Liang Fei, I tell you to get out!"
