As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's eyes fell on Concubine Shu.
Concubine Shu was not annoyed by such insinuations.
"Whether Concubine Rou committed adultery in the harem is naturally for the Emperor to decide. We won't bother with you, a mere concubine, for accusing Concubine Rou of a crime without my permission and Sister Defei, but you are so bold as to speak nonsense in front of the Emperor."
The originally proud concubine's face turned pale in an instant, she knelt on the ground and said in panic:
"Your Majesty, I have no intention of accusing Concubine Rou of any crime beyond your control."
Concubine Shu looked at her coldly and said to the emperor, "Your Majesty, I am in charge of the harem. If what Roupin said is true, then it is my fault for failing to discipline her. I will take the blame."
The concubine kneeling on the ground suddenly raised her head when she heard this. Since the maid said it was Concubine Rou's voice, how could she be wrong? Could it be that Concubine Shu had damaged her brain by fiddling with those things?
[Is Aunt Shufei stacking buffs? ]
Yu Yiluo glanced at the concubines who were watching the show, taking in the smugness on their faces, and clicked her tongue twice.
What a clown.
[Eh, why does it feel like something's wrong with Concubine Shu? Her face seems a little red, which is kind of cute.]
[It's not that cold, why is your face so red from the wind?]
Seeing that the emperor remained silent, the concubine whispered, "Your Majesty, since the Concubine Shu said so, then I must have misunderstood the Concubine Shu."
Before the emperor could speak, Concubine Shu spoke first with a smile.
"Your Majesty, since this girl said that the voice is Concubine Rou, then she and Eunuch Cao will go and see what is going on."
If she kept on wasting time, she would be burning with desire. After this matter was over, she would settle the score with that idiot Huang Meiren.
The emperor nodded and looked at the concubines kneeling on the ground.
"Get up."
Then he walked in and sat down, while Eunuch Cao took Concubine Huang's maid to the bed.
The two people on the bed had reached the point of oblivion. The emperor and his entourage came in and not only did not stop them, but made them even more intense.
Even Eunuch Cao blushed at the sound that was getting closer and closer.
Those concubines who hoped that Concubine Shu would admit her guilt were both shy and nervous. If Concubine Shu really admitted her guilt, it would mean that she failed to manage the harem properly, and then Concubine Shu would naturally not be able to manage the harem anymore.
Eunuch Cao and the maid walked to the bed and stood there waiting for the emperor's instructions.
The emperor's face was as dark as ink. "Pull back the bed curtains. I want to see who are the two daring people who came to Concubine Shu's side hall to do such a dirty thing."
The prizes are drawn. The prizes are drawn.
The two of them answered yes, raised their hands and pulled open the bed curtain. Without the curtain covering their faces, their appearances were directly exposed to Eunuch Cao and the maid.
The maidservant widened her eyes. Who else could the woman on the bed be but her master?
He was so frightened that he stood there like a wooden sculpture.
Compared to her, Eunuch Cao was much calmer, but the two of them were still going on, so he had to turn his face away, his brain racing to figure out how to turn his head to make the emperor's show more exciting.
The concubines behind were far away and were blocked by the two of them, so they couldn't see who was on the bed at all. They were very anxious and wanted to go forward to see if it was the person they were looking for.
Seeing the two of them standing there in silence, Concubine De asked, "Eunuch Cao, is that Concubine Rou?"
Eunuch Cao pretended to be frightened and embarrassed and looked at the emperor, then glanced at Concubine Shu cautiously before lowering his head.
"Your Majesty, and Consort De, the person inside is... is..."
Seeing his performance, Concubine Cai, who had just been secretly criticizing Concubine Shu outside, was immediately certain that the person inside must be Concubine Rou, otherwise Eunuch Cao would not have looked at Concubine Shu so cautiously.
[Hahaha, Eunuch Cao is doing a great job as an assistant. He's so careful in observing Aunt Shufei's movements. I guess Concubine Cai has already determined that the person in the bed is undoubtedly Aunt Roupin.]
How could Concubine Shu not see that Eunuch Cao was cooperating, and she frowned and spoke.
"Look, Eunuch Cao can't even speak clearly. If it is really Concubine Rou inside, I will take the blame for my failure to discipline the harem. Why do you need to look at me so cautiously?"
"Eunuch Cao, since the Concubine Shu has said so, what are you afraid of?"
As Concubine Cai spoke, she secretly winked at the concubines who were also dissatisfied with Concubine Shu.
After receiving the eye signal from Concubine Cai, several people weighed the pros and cons in their minds and decided to wait for Eunuch Cao to say that the person was Concubine Rou before pouring the oil. If it wasn't them, they would be finished.
Seeing that they were silent, Concubine Cai gritted her teeth. These bitches, didn't they usually yell about wanting to kill Concubine Shu? Now that they had the chance, they pretended to be dumb.
"Eunuch Cao, who is it?"
Concubine Shu was already impatient, but she tried her best to hide it, making people think that she was unhappy because this incident happened in her side hall and she felt ashamed.
Eunuch Cao lowered his head and said, "Replying to the Concubine, it is..."
Lady Cai thought that Eunuch Cao had finished speaking, and the smile on her face became more and more obvious. She couldn't wait to say:
"Your Majesty, since it's Concubine Rou, shouldn't Concubine Shu take the blame?"
Eunuch Cao is someone close to the emperor, and he said it was Concubine Rou. He didn't believe that the emperor would protect Concubine Shu in front of so many people.
As for Concubine Rou, the emperor would naturally not let her live since she had defiled the harem, so she didn't need to worry about it.
[Gasping for air while speaking is a real skill, and Eunuch Cao does it very skillfully.]
emperor:"……"
Luo'er was panting heavily when speaking, so she must be talking about herself.
The few people who were still watching heard Eunuch Cao say yes, looked at each other, knelt down and said in unison:
"Your Majesty, Concubine Rou has defiled the harem, which is unforgivable. Concubine Shu is in charge of the harem, but she has withheld my monthly salary. I beg Your Majesty to make this decision."
The other concubines knew that they had a grudge against Concubine Shu, and now they were trying to take advantage of her misfortune.
What kind of drugs did Qingrong and the others give them? Why are they still so high after such a long time?
emperor:"……"
[The show has already come to this point, why hasn't Aunt Roupin appeared yet? ]
The breeze on the roof also has this question.
"Sister Rong, did you hit Concubine Rou too hard and kill her?"
He lowered his voice very low, and he should have been awake by now.
Qingrong thought about it seriously and shook her head.
Although Concubine Rou was not favored by the emperor, she often served as a toy for the little princess. No matter how brave she was, she would not dare to beat Concubine Rou to death.
The Roupin, whom the two people were talking about, was rubbing her neck and was about to go to the main hall, but when she passed by the side hall, she saw that the lights were on.
There were many maids and eunuchs standing at the door. She walked closer with curiosity. She was so angry about Concubine Rou's words that she defiled the harem that she strode in.
"Who is saying that I am defiled in the harem?"
Looking at Concubine Rou coming in from the door, the man kneeling on the ground instantly lost his color in his face.
Why is Concubine Rou here? Why did Eunuch Cao say it was Concubine Rou?
Eunuch Cao is not old enough to have blurry eyes.
And since the person on the bed is not Concubine Rou, then who is it?
Questions popped up in everyone's minds one after another.
Those who did not take the opportunity to kick someone when he was down secretly breathed a sigh of relief and were glad that they had made the right choice.
