Chapter 77: Being Pretended?



As soon as Yu Yiluo was taken back to the imperial study by the emperor, the people who were monitoring Concubine Rou and Yang Xin came to report to Eunuch Cao.

After hearing this, Eunuch Cao asked his men to continue watching and turned to enter the imperial study.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Rou is causing trouble for Yang Xin."

[Can she not go find him? After all, the time-traveling girl has embarrassed her. But I'm afraid she's even more unbearable than Concubine Rou to have her idea exposed by the tyrant! Since this one failed, let me imagine what tricks she'll come up with to get Concubine Rou to seduce the tyrant.]

The emperor pricked up his ears, but the little guy was silent.

Seeing that the emperor remained silent, Eunuch Cao continued, "Your Majesty, do you need me to have Yang Xin imprisoned?"

"Need not."

If Yang Xin is imprisoned, how can the fourth brother still commit suicide? The fourth brother will not cry until he sees the coffin. He has finally got his wish.

"If the Fourth Prince likes to commit suicide, let him continue. Only then will he know what the pot is made of. Judging from the tyrant's attitude, isn't that what he's planning?"

Ahhh, now I know what I'm thinking. Since the time-traveling girl has failed, she'll definitely pull out her trump card next. She'll copy the poem and send it to Concubine Rou to show off. Tsk tsk, I wonder if the tyrant will be fooled this time.

The emperor lowered his eyes and asked, "Copying poems?"

What poem? Tell me.

As if she heard the emperor's prayer, Yu Yiluo recalled in her mind the two poems that Yang Xin had copied when he was showing off in the book.

There was erotic dancing in front and ancient poetry in the back, which completely bewitched the Fourth Prince, the bootlicker.

"Eunuch Cao, send the little princess back to Concubine Xian's palace. I still have things to attend to."

Yu Yiluo curled her lips.

[Are you going to do something shameful and send a little cutie like me away?]

After Yu Yiluo was carried out, the emperor took a piece of rice paper and spread it out, writing on it the poem he had just heard, its title, and the author.

Blow dry and put it away.

He didn't want to hide it from his daughter, but if he really wrote it in front of her, she was so smart that she suspected he could hear her thoughts and she would definitely not say it again.

......

Concubine Rou was excitedly returning to her bedroom with the poem. On the way, she met some concubines who were enjoying the flowers outside. Several of them laughed and teased her.

"Sister Roupin, are you coming back from catching butterflies?"

Concubine Rou glared at a few people and turned away.

After entering the bedroom, he sat at the table and took out the poem written by Yang Xin and read it carefully.

"I didn't expect that this lowly maid's handwriting was so ugly, but her poem was so good."

The maid poured tea for her and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, please recopy it and then say that you wrote it yourself. Anyway, that lowly maid won't dare to say anything."

Concubine Rou took a sip of tea and put down the cup.

"Grind the ink and let me write it again."

Although she was not very talented, she could see that the poem was particularly rhyming.

The slave girl wrote it down without even thinking. Her brain was quite useful.

Pulling his thoughts back, he picked up the pen and wrote carefully, stroke by stroke.

After finishing writing, he burned the one written by Yang Xin, then stood up and prepared to go find the emperor.

"Your Majesty, are you planning to go look for the Emperor? No."

Concubine Rou glanced at the palace maid and asked, "Why?"

Those bitches laughed at her, and she couldn't even get back at them?

"Although the Emperor doesn't blame you for what happened today, he must be feeling uncomfortable. Even if you go to see the Emperor now, he may not see you."

Feeling that what she said made sense, Concubine Rou turned around and sat down, planning to go see the emperor again tomorrow.

......

The next day.

When the emperor returned to the imperial study after leaving court, he saw Concubine Rou standing at the door with a food box.

Seeing the emperor coming over, Concubine Rou smiled and bowed, "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. This is the soup I made, and I brought it to you specially for you to try."

[Hey, you even gave me soup today. You've made progress.]

"Just to bring me soup?" The emperor walked into the imperial study without even looking at Concubine Rou.

[No, no, delivering the soup is just a side job, showing off is the main task.]

Seeing that the emperor did not drive her away, Concubine Rou followed him in and handed the food box to Eunuch Cao.

"Your Majesty, I have written a poem and would like to ask for your guidance."

[You guessed it right! If I'm not mistaken, the poem in your hand is Li Bai's "Quiet Night Thoughts." This time-traveling woman is truly brave. Not only did she use the immortal poet's poem to show off, she even claimed it was her own. How shameless!]

"Eunuch Cao, present the poem written by Concubine Rou."

Eunuch Cao nodded, handed the food box to Concubine Rou, and presented the poem to the emperor.

The emperor took it, opened it, and saw that the poem that came into his sight was exactly the same as what his daughter had said in her heart.

[Wow, that's true. Hahaha, that's right, I forgot that the time-traveling girl only remembered these two poems, so when others asked her to write a poem later, she made up all kinds of excuses. In fact, she just couldn't recite it.]

“This poem is indeed a good poem.”

[The poems of the Immortal Poet are naturally good poems. Is the tyrant being fooled? Why doesn't he think about whether Concubine Rou can write them?]

emperor:"……"

He knew that Luo'er would not miss any opportunity to plot against him.

Ignoring Yu Yiluo's thoughts, the emperor looked at Concubine Rou.

"Roupin, are you sure you wrote this poem?"

Concubine Rou's clasped hands stirred restlessly in her sleeves, wondering what the emperor meant by this.

Could it be that the slave girl had deceived her again?

That's impossible. I haven't seen this poem myself.

"Your Majesty, the poem was indeed written by me."

The emperor sneered, "I don't even know when Li Bai's poem became yours."

[Ah, this, the tyrant was not only not deceived, but also knew that it was written by Li Bai. Isn't this just a fabrication? Is it because it was an insignificant small country, so there is no record of it in history?]

After hearing the little fellow's self-doubt, the emperor felt much better.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me."

Concubine Rou quickly knelt down and kowtowed to admit her fault. "I don't know who Li Bai is. This poem was given to me by that lowly maid Yang Mei. She wanted me to rescue her from the shabby room, so she offered this poem as a bargain. I was also temporarily bewildered."

I have to say that Concubine Rou really knows how to act. The emperor was shocked by her attitude of admitting her mistake.

"Go back and copy the Women's Virtues a hundred times."

Upon hearing this, Concubine Rou kowtowed quickly and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty. I will behave myself from now on and will not be bewitched by that lowly maid again."

After leaving the imperial study, Concubine Rou breathed a sigh of relief.

She handed the food box to the maid, "Take it and go find that slave girl."

The palace maid was outside the door and had no idea what was going on inside. Seeing that Concubine Rou looked unhappy, she didn't dare to ask more questions.

Carrying the food box, he followed Concubine Rou to the bathroom.

"My lady, are you here to look for bayberries?"

When the steward saw Concubine Rou come in, he smiled and bowed before asking.

Roupin didn't see Yang Xin and asked unhappily.

"Where is the slave girl? Where is she?"

"In the room."

"She was punished to come here. Why don't you let her rest in her room?" Roupin said this and went towards Yang Xin's room.

Without waiting for the maid to push the door open, she kicked it open.

Yang Xin was about to apply medicine to herself, but when she heard the sound, she quickly put the medicine away and stood up.

Did Concubine Rou succeed?

She knew that the dog emperor would be shocked by such a timeless quatrain.
