Concubine Chen came in gracefully in a pink palace dress. When she saw the emperor, there was no surprise in her eyes.
After she found out that Concubine Rou was indeed with Concubine De, she decided to go find the Emperor.
She didn't want the palace servants to tell her that the emperor had come to see Concubine Shu. When she heard this, Concubine Chen was extremely excited.
It is much easier to see the emperor at Concubine Shu's place than in the imperial study.
"Your Highness, I pay my respects to you, Your Highness, the Concubine Dowager."
Lady Chen walked forward with a faint smile, put away her unnecessary thoughts and bowed.
"Get up."
The emperor didn't even bother to lift his eyelids and completely ignored Concubine Chen's shy and timid look.
"Lady Chen comes to my place quite often," said Concubine Shu, smiling affably. "Please take a seat."
[How can I not be diligent? If I am not diligent, how can I be your gun? Let me see who this gun of Chen Meiren will point at.]
Concubine Chen stole a glance at the emperor and sat down obediently on the chair, but she was thinking in her heart how to lead the emperor to Concubine De's bedroom.
God has helped her so much that he can get rid of three of the four concubines at once. How can she miss such a good opportunity?
That's not taking God's gift seriously.
"Have I not disturbed the Emperor and the Concubine Dowager?"
The concubine blew gently on the tea and looked at the emperor.
"Don't bother me. I've finished reading the Buddhist scriptures in my hand and am discussing Buddhist scriptures with the emperor."
When these words came out, Lady Chen was so happy that she could hardly hold back the smile on her face.
She was worried that she would not have the chance to lead the emperor to Concubine De.
"Buddhist scriptures?" Concubine Chen opened her mouth. "In the palace, Concubine De has the most Buddhist scriptures. The Concubine Dowager can go to Concubine De to pick some."
[Good fellow, this is trying to mess with Aunt Defei.]
[That's not right. It seems that Mother went to Aunt Defei's place today. Concubine Chen's actions aren't just targeting Aunt Defei, they're also trying to eliminate Mother and her team of four.]
Yu Yiluo scratched his head.
[The tyrant warned Concubine De once last time when he saw her playing mahjong. Will he let them off this time?]
[Concubine Shu is such a fox. When Lady Chen found out about this, she must have come to her right away. Given her nature, she would have refused outright, then sent someone to tell the tyrant that she had finished reading the Buddhist scriptures.]
[The tyrant hasn't come to her place for a long time, so he will come in person.]
As for Concubine Chen, even if Concubine Shu doesn't help her, she will never let go of this opportunity, so she will go to the Imperial Study no matter what.
[She learned from the Imperial Study that the tyrant was here, and then took advantage of the situation to visit Concubine Shu. Although everything seemed to have nothing to do with Concubine Shu, it allowed Concubine Chen to achieve her goal.]
[Good fellow, he really kills without shedding blood.]
Seeing that the emperor remained silent for a long time, Concubine Shu whispered, "Does Concubine De really have many Buddhist scriptures?"
The Emperor raised his eyebrows imperceptibly and continued, following the Dowager Concubine's words, "Yes, that's exactly what I came here to discuss. I'd also like to take my aunt and mother to pick one myself."
Lady Chen, who was still a little nervous, suddenly brightened up when she heard this.
The emperor agreed, and she was one step closer to success.
Yu Yiluo took in Lady Chen's little movements and clicked her tongue in her heart.
[Concubine Chen was too happy too soon. The tyrant continued to speak, clearly having noticed something. No wonder he specifically asked the guards to come with him when he left. If anyone came looking for him, they would say he was at Concubine Shu's place.]
[Ouch, Concubine Shu thought she was clever enough to lure the enemy into a trap, but in fact, it was the tyrant who took the initiative to enter the trap.]
[Since you've already taken the initiative, wouldn't it be reasonable for you not to counterattack? ]
When the emperor heard this, the corners of his mouth raised slightly.
"Well," Concubine Shu hesitated, "I haven't fully recovered yet. Could you please ask the Emperor and Concubine Chen to pick out a book and send it to me?"
The emperor naturally agreed, "Aunt, have a good rest."
…
Concubine Chen obediently followed the emperor out of Concubine Shu's bedroom. Her mind was working non-stop, thinking about how to get the emperor to go in directly without being informed.
Otherwise, if the emperor sent someone to inform the enemy, she would alert the enemy and how could she let the emperor witness it with his own eyes?
Unfortunately, her mind was blank and she couldn't think of a suitable reason no matter how hard she tried.
As they were about to reach Concubine De's bedroom, Concubine Chen gritted her teeth, walked up to the emperor and knelt down.
The emperor stopped and asked in a deep voice, "What's this, Lady Chen?"
Concubine Chen looked up at the Emperor and said, "I would like to ask Your Majesty if I could not have someone inform you when I go to the Empress Defei's bedroom."
She didn't say anything more, but her face was full of struggle.
"What is Concubine De doing in the bedroom?"
The emperor's face darkened even more, and he asked Concubine Chen to stand up. "I promise you."
[Oh my god, Miss Chen is so clueless. She's still using the dumbest method after all this journey.]
[Hehe, since the tyrant took the initiative to join the game, I wonder how he will excuse himself for my mother and the others later.]
Concubine Chen thanked the emperor and stood up, thinking that her acting skills were good and that it made the emperor misunderstand and not ask the reason.
The group went to the door of Concubine De's bedroom.
There are four people guarding Defei's door today, two palace maids and two eunuchs.
Seeing the emperor coming towards them, several people looked at each other, stepped forward in panic and were about to salute, but were stopped by the emperor with a look.
Seeing this, Concubine Chen sneered in her heart. Judging from the reactions of these palace servants, they must know what their master is doing, otherwise why are they so panicked?
The emperor held Yu Yiluo in his arms and strode inside.
Concubine Chen suppressed her excitement and followed the emperor.
When I stepped into the bedroom, Empress Xian and her friends had just finished a game and put down their cards.
Eunuch Cao glanced at the emperor and said, "The emperor has arrived."
Upon hearing this, several people hurriedly stood up and stepped forward to salute.
"Your Highness, I pay my respects to you."
The emperor did not speak, but walked straight to the round wooden table and glanced at the leaf cards on it.
"How could this happen?"
Concubine Chen pointed at the cards on the table in surprise, "Empress Defei, are you actually playing cards?"
Concubine De was a little annoyed. Concubine Xian had reminded her that someone seemed to have come yesterday, but she didn't believe it and insisted on dragging a few people along. Now it seems that the person was Concubine Chen.
[My dear mothers, don't be nervous. The tyrant is an ally. It wouldn't be so easy to deal with three concubines at once. Only a fool like Concubine Chen would think she could get rid of you all at once.]
Concubine Xian glanced at the emperor and then looked away.
Concubine Rou knelt aside with her heart pounding like thunder. After hearing what Concubine Chen said, she was about to take the blame.
She was unlucky today. If she hadn't wanted to get back at him, how could she have been caught by the emperor?
Before she could speak, she heard the emperor say with a smile: "Okay, everyone get up."
good?
Concubine Chen looked at the emperor in surprise. Did she hear it wrong, or did the emperor say the wrong thing because he was angry?
Is it okay for concubines to play mahjong together? They have been caught red-handed. Shouldn't the emperor punish the four people?
Not only was she surprised, but the few people who had just stood up were also extremely surprised.
"Your Majesty, this is card games. Concubine De and the others are ignoring palace rules by playing cards together in the palace."
The Emperor looked at the agitated Concubine Chen and asked, "Concubine Chen, are you blaming me?"
