Chapter 56: Concubine Lian's furious complaint

"Pull her away!"

Emperor Yuan Yong retreated in disgust, avoiding Concubine Lian and ordered everyone to hold her back.

Concubine Lian had little strength to begin with, and it was only out of her love and grievance that she mustered the strength to run and pounce. Unexpectedly, the Emperor wouldn't allow her to get close at all, and in public, he shunned her. Concubine Lian was stunned, and her strength instantly vanished. She fell to the ground again, tears streaming down her face. "Your Majesty! What I said is true. That slut—"

"Shut up!" Emperor Yuan Yong said coldly, "Princess Lian, who is the lowly servant? Huh?"

Concubine Lian choked, feeling even more aggrieved and angry. "Your Majesty, she almost killed me, and instead of standing up for me, you scolded me! Your Majesty, you are too partial!"

Emperor Yuan Yong sneered, "Who in the palace knows what kind of person you are? Don't I know? Even if Concubine Xu had a hundred guts, she would never dare to harm you! You're lucky enough not to harm her, but how dare she do that to you? You dare to tell such a lie, Concubine Lian? Should I praise your courage or scold you for being stupid?"

Concubine Lian was filled with anger, hatred, jealousy, and shame, and burst into tears: "Your Majesty, how could you treat me like this! How could you treat me like this...?"

Compared to Concubine Lian's wailing and screaming, Xu Lanshan looked even more pitiful. Her face was pale and she was about to die, shedding tears silently. It was clear that she had suffered a great injustice and fear, but under Concubine Lian's arrogant and domineering attitude, she didn't even dare to say a word...

Emperor Yuan Yong took a glance and became even angrier.

In front of you are fields of lotus leaves, and the lotus flowers are as beautiful as graceful young girls. The lotus leaves that reach the sky and the lotus flowers that are as bright as bright clouds complement each other. In the distance is the vast lake with misty waves. Further away, you can see weeping willows, peach trees and pavilions with flying eaves along the north bank. From time to time, white water birds spread their wings and fly across the sky, making clear sounds. The scenery is as beautiful as a picture scroll.

It’s a pity that there are people who spoil the fun!

Yes, it must be because he accompanied Lan'er to the lake to appreciate the lotus the day before yesterday, and Concubine Lian was holding a grudge against him, so she was looking for trouble.

You don't need to ask to know that it must have been her husband's fault. He deliberately pushed Lan'er into the water, and who knew that he would drag her down with him as well. Now he is taking advantage of Lan'er's fear of telling the truth and deliberately taking the initiative to complain!

This vicious bitch.

He is an emperor, but he is not worthy of owning or even keeping the woman he loves?

The more they act like this, the more he wants to praise her. So what?

"Empress, arrest all the palace maids and eunuchs who were present at the time of the incident and interrogate them separately. Dong Zhi, have someone listen in. Go and call the imperial physician!"

Emperor Yuan Yong said this as he strode forward, bent down, reached out and picked her up horizontally.

Xu Lanshan was stunned, and subconsciously put her arms around Emperor Yuan Yong's neck, looking at him in surprise, "Your Majesty..."

She swore that this was not what she had planned! Why did the emperor suddenly do this?

Emperor Yuan Yong saw her pale little face, barely the size of a palm, with her wet hair plastered to her cheeks. The distinct black and white of her face made her look so pitiful. He held her in his arms, her body frail and thin, and she seemed to be trembling slightly. She must have been terrified! Even more pitiful!

Emperor Yuan Yong's eyes showed tenderness: "I will take you back."

"But......"

"Be good, it's okay."

"Yes, Your Majesty..."

Xu Lanshan fell silent, and a faint blush finally appeared on her pale face. She snuggled obediently and weakly in Emperor Yuan Yong's arms.

Emperor Yuan Yong carried her back to Wan'an Hall.

Dong Zhi and others hurriedly followed, and a large group of people left in a flash.

The Empress, Concubine Shu, Concubine Yu and others were all stunned and watched helplessly as the Emperor took Concubine Xu away.

This, this——

Concubine Deng and the others felt even worse, secretly envious. They were afraid they would never have such a blessing in their lifetime...

Concubine Lian was also dumbfounded!

Not only was she dumbfounded, she also heard the sound of her heart shattering into pieces.

Heartbroken.

Concubine Lian burst into tears, completely disregarding her dignity. "How could this be? How could this be! I will not let her go! I will never let her go!"

No one said anything, everyone just watched her go crazy and throw a tantrum.

Everyone felt bad, and no one had the heart to stir up trouble anymore.

The Queen also lost interest. She sighed and ordered her attendants, "Help Concubine Lian up and send her back to Yingshui Lanxiang Pavilion. Then order the imperial physician to examine her thoroughly. Ruyue, you follow. Alright, let's all go back!"

Concubine Lian suddenly turned her head and glared at the Empress, gritting her teeth and sneering, "Your Majesty, as the mistress of the six palaces, don't you care? How can the Emperor keep such a seductress by his side? Look at how she has bewitched him! This is not a blessing for the Emperor, nor for the Emperor, and are you just going to watch?"

"Shut up!" The Queen frowned in displeasure and said coldly, "Concubine Lian, I think you've lost your mind and are just talking nonsense. The Emperor is already tired from working on state affairs, and coming to the palace is to relax and unwind. As long as the Emperor is happy, what does it matter? How dare you speak so recklessly. Also, if it weren't for you today, this wouldn't have happened. Remember this, next time you do it, you will be confined to your room and never leave the house again!"

Concubine Lian was so angry that she almost fainted.

The queen was too lazy to pay attention to her and walked away with a sneer.

Concubine Yu raised her eyebrows at her, fanned herself with a round fan, and left with a chuckle.

Seeing that only Concubine Deng, who was on good terms with Concubine Lian, stayed to diligently take care of her, Concubine Shu sighed helplessly, "Sister Lian, you really need to change your temper, or you'll suffer a great loss."

Concubine Lian bit anyone she caught, "Hmph, you're just pretending to be kind!"

Concubine Shu was well-mannered and didn't get angry at this. She smiled good-temperedly and said, "Sister Lian, please don't get angry. You fell into the water and got cold and frightened. If you get angry again, you will get sick and it will get worse."

Concubine Lian widened her eyes: "......"

Concubine Shu smiled and nodded slightly at her, then left.

Concubine Deng and Ruyue personally helped Concubine Lian up. Concubine Deng then asked someone to bring a sedan chair over and hurriedly sent Concubine Lian back to Yingshui Lanxiang Pavilion.

Concubine Lian asked Noble Lady Deng, "I didn't lie. It was that bitch who pushed me into the water. Do you believe it?"

Concubine Deng's eyes flashed, "Uh..."

This reaction shows disbelief!

Even Concubine Deng, who always fawned over her, had this attitude, let alone the others? Concubine Lian was not only furious, but also felt deeply angry and wronged: "Get out! Get out of here!"

"Empress Lian!"

"roll!"

Concubine Deng was embarrassed and could only force a smile, "Since that's the case, Your Majesty, please have a good rest. I will come to visit you again tomorrow."

After saying that, he left in shame.

Shuangxi, the maidservant of Concubine Deng, could not help but say, "How could Concubine Lian treat the master like this? It's a pity that the master is so——"

"Shh!" Concubine Deng raised her index finger to silence her, saying calmly, "She's always been like this. It's nothing. Let's not talk about this anymore."

"Yes, my lord!"
