Chapter 2241 House Arrest
Even at the hands of Shao Yunduan, they suffered defeats one after another and lost many places.
The emperor's army was at the gates of the city, and he was so frightened that he dared not resist at all. Although he had gone to Jiangning and was appointed as the Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue by the emperor, he was not as powerful as when he was the prefect of Hangzhou.
After she entered the palace, she never saw him again. But she remembered his graying temples, cloudy eyes, and his expression as if he had lost all his energy before she entered the palace...
She didn't quite hear what Concubine Su Lifei said next, and suddenly she felt bored and disheartened, and lost interest in everything.
What is there to fight for? Whoever occupies such a large area is unlikely to surrender to others easily.
Concubine Su Lifei asked again. Concubine Fu Shu was very annoyed but couldn't get angry. She had to force herself to go along with what she wanted.
Concubine Su Lifei was thinking seriously, trying to accomplish this great task for the emperor and make a great contribution.
At the dinner - it was called a dinner, but in fact there was no one else there, only Qiao Xuan and Lixia came to attend, and even Mrs. Jia Qiao Xuan was not invited.
For this reason, Qiao Xuan specially explained it to Mrs. Jia.
Mrs. Jia also knew what happened at the post station yesterday, and she was very scared. Qiao Xuan told her that she didn't need to go to see Concubine Su Lifei, and Mrs. Jia felt relieved and was very happy!
She doesn't want to meet that kind of person.
If you see it, you will only be humiliated and insulted. Why bother?
Besides, what's so good about meeting a "queen" who came from a bandit family?
The banquet was not shabby, with twelve cold dishes and eighteen hot dishes, it was quite sumptuous.
The lights are bright and the flowers are displayed, which makes the place look very festive.
However, the only one who entertained them was Qiao Xuan, which was enough to make Concubine Su Lifei angry.
She once again proposed to Qiao Xuan that she would show her favor and meet the local famous ladies. Qiao Xuan had figured out her ways. She couldn't understand her veiled words, so she had to tell her bluntly that no, she was busy!
Concubine Su was furious and questioned her angrily, but Qiao Xuan simply didn't answer.
Concubine Su was so angry that she almost overturned the table.
Parted on bad terms.
The next day, Concubine Su Lifei sent Nanny Ling to call Qiao Xuan over. She wanted to summon all the ladies in the city, but Nanny Ling couldn't even get out of the post station.
It is true that Concubine Su Lifei brought several hundred guards with her, but what use would they be in Huaixi City?
After staying in the inn for three days, Qiao Xuan appeared again and politely asked when they would leave.
No matter how stupid Concubine Su Lifei was, she knew that Shao Yunduan had no intention of surrendering. She sneered and said, "Our emperor is the legitimate son of the empress. He is the true emperor. Sooner or later, the world of the Great Qin will be his, and no one can take it away. If Lord Shao doesn't surrender now, it will be too late to surrender in the future! Otherwise, does Lord Shao also want to fight for the world? What a joke! Why? Just relying on such a small piece of land in Huaixi? You are overestimating yourself!"
She kept saying those outrageous things, and Qiao Xuan also got angry. "Don't worry about that, Concubine Li! As long as we can protect ourselves, we will never hand our lives and property over to others! If the day comes when we can't protect ourselves comes, we'll talk about it then! This is our own choice, and in the future, we will never blame Concubine Li."
