Chapter 40 Jade Concubine's Favor
Upon hearing this, Concubine Yu's face changed. "Talented Lady Liu, it doesn't matter if you have no idea what's going on in your head. The most important thing is that you don't let water get into your head. I'm a concubine, so who is she? Is she worthy of me coming forward to plead for her?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone secretly savored Yu Fei's words in their hearts.
Especially the beautiful Rong.
They are all Yu Fei's people and are dedicated to working for her.
But now that Jiang is in trouble, Concubine Yu not only does not lend a helping hand, but is so cold-blooded and heartless.
Perhaps to her, a useless chess piece would be better off disappearing before her eyes, so why would she help?
Only Mingpin had her eyes fixed on the guilty Liu Yuetang.
She also knew a little about how Jiang bullied Liu Yuetang in the past, but now she was so cowardly and incompetent that she pleaded for her enemy.
"What an idiot!" She couldn't help but sneer.
Upon hearing this, the queen curled her lips slightly, as if smiling.
"Well, Jiang's crimes were unforgivable, so the Emperor banished her to the cold palace. You don't have to blame yourself too much, Liu Cairen. The Emperor has already issued the decree, and it's impossible for him to revoke it."
Liu Yuetang nodded sadly: "Yes, I did speak out of turn."
For the next three nights, perhaps because he was in high spirits, or perhaps because Liu Yuetang could provide him with enough emotional value and satisfaction in bed, Xiao Heng stayed at Jinxiu Pavilion.
Yiyuan Palace.
Concubine Yu was applying facial cream in front of the mirror.
"Ruolan, do you think I still look the same as I did back then?"
Ruolan said quickly, "Your Majesty is the most beautiful among all the beauties, even more so than before."
Yu Fei stroked her smooth and delicate cheek and looked at herself in the bronze mirror.
I don't know when the childishness between her eyebrows and eyes turned into gracefulness and beauty.
The hairpins and head ornaments on the head are becoming more and more numerous and heavier.
Now she is the most favored and noble Jade Concubine in the six palaces.
However, she is so far away from her former self.
Perhaps it was the power and favor that gradually turned her into a calculating woman in the deep palace, and she no longer had the brightness and innocence she once had.
"Ruolan, I've just realized that the concubines in the palace are like leaves on a tree; they can never be removed. Even if they fall in autumn, they will sprout again in spring. There will be more selections... The number of women in the harem will only increase."
Ruolan called out distressedly, "My Lady..."
Yu Fei closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, there was only a cold look in them.
"But I will always be the largest branch. I am still young, and newcomers will never be as good at serving the Emperor as I am, and the Empress will never be as young and beautiful as I am. I will give you the opportunity to slowly fight and eliminate those bitches until the day I become Empress."
"Yes, I am waiting for the day when I will call you Queen." Ruolan's eyes were full of anticipation.
Yu Fei raised the corner of her mouth slightly, and picked up a strand of hair and wrapped it around her fingertips.
"It's been a while since I've let those newcomers taste my power."
"Ruolan, go tell the Emperor that I have a headache and ask him to come over."
Ruolan quickly agreed: "Yes, I will go right away."
At Jinxiu Pavilion, Xiao Heng was holding Liu Yuetang's hand and practicing calligraphy.
"The most difficult part of running script is the continuity of the ideas through the discontinuity of the strokes. The biggest taboo is to have softness without strength, to have uprightness without side, and to have the center point out of place..."
As he spoke, he held Liu Yuetang's hand and wrote the word "Tang" on the rice paper.
However, Liu Yuetang's eyes were not on the rice paper. Instead, she looked at herself tenderly with a face full of admiration and respect.
Xiao Heng slapped her slender waist hard and said in a low voice, "There is another big taboo, which is not paying attention."
"If you keep staring at me and not studying hard, I won't teach you anymore."
Liu Yuetang quickly retracted her gaze, placed it on the rice paper, and said in a soft voice, "Your Majesty has sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, a face as beautiful as a crown of jade, and is so talented. I was... I was lost in thought for a moment."
"I will not be distracted any longer. I will study hard and live up to the Master's teachings."
Hearing the word "Master", Xiao Heng found it particularly interesting.
He cleared his throat and pretended to be stern and mature: "If your calligraphy doesn't improve, I will teach you a lesson."
Liu Yuetang lowered her beautiful eyes pitifully and nodded softly, "Disciple will practice well now."
As she spoke, she stood in front of him, holding the brush, and raised her graceful and soft buttocks slightly, pressing against Xiao Heng's body.
Xiao Heng's body stiffened, and desire appeared in his deep eyes.
He had no intention of reading the words written by Liu Yuetang, and his eyes were fixed on the soft curves of her neck.
Liu Yuetang felt the gazes behind him, and curled the corners of his mouth imperceptibly. After writing the word "Tang" completely on the rice paper, he turned around with a smile and said, "Master, do you think my disciple has made any progress?"
As soon as she turned sideways, she realized that Xiao Heng was approaching her.
In order to avoid bumping into him, Liu Yuetang supported herself on the table with both hands and leaned back.
Xiao Heng quickly embraced her soft waist and said slowly, "My disciple, are you practicing calligraphy, or are you trying to seduce me?"
Liu Yuetang's crescent-shaped eyebrows seemed to be furrowed, and her voice was soft and charming: "The disciple is the disciple, and you are the master. How dare the disciple covet and seduce the master? It is clearly you, the master, who teased the disciple."
Xiao Heng's fingertips picked at her belt, his eyes becoming more intense: "Oh? You dare to contradict your master?"
She bit her lip lightly, her expression full of charm: "I dare not contradict the master, I only want to be contradicted by the master."
Xiao Heng laughed from his throat, with a hint of madness in his dark eyes.
"Then Master will fulfill your wish."
After saying that, Xiao Heng lowered his head and kissed Liu Yuetang.
Liu Yuetang lay down on the table, showing off her charming charm.
Just as he was about to take the next step, Zhou Defu's voice suddenly came from outside the door.
"Your Majesty, someone has come from Yiyuan Palace and said that Concubine Yu has a severe headache. Please come over."
The smile on Xiao Heng's face disappeared immediately, and was covered with a layer of frost.
Yes, anyone would be unhappy when they are enjoying the pleasure of the boudoir.
Liu Yuetang lifted up the clothes that had slipped down her shoulders and covered her plump breasts.
He stood up and said, "Your Majesty, a headache is the most torturous thing. Concubine Yu must be wishing Your Majesty could be by her side right now."
"Then Tang'er, do you want me to stay?" Xiao Heng lowered his eyes and looked at her.
Liu Yuetang seemed reluctant, yet also generous as she straightened Xiao Heng's robe.
"I certainly hope that the Emperor can stay, but I know that the Emperor does not belong to me alone. Moreover, no matter how much I like the Emperor, I should not compete with a sick person for the Emperor. If I were not feeling well, I would also be eagerly looking forward to your coming."
Seeing that Xiao Heng's expression had eased after what she said, and there was surprise in his eyes, Liu Yue hooked her jade fingers around his fingertips and gently stroked them.
She said in a gentle voice, "I will practice calligraphy diligently. If I still haven't improved when Master comes next time, I will ask Master to punish me. Is that okay?"
This undoubtedly made Xiao Heng full of interest in the next meeting, and the feeling of loss of not tasting the sweet fruit just now gradually faded away.
"Then this time... Master will let you go for now."
"You'd better practice calligraphy day and night, and don't disappoint your master."
After saying that, Xiao Heng raised his eyebrows meaningfully.
Liu Yuetang bowed obediently: "Yes, disciple obeys."
Xiao Heng turned around with a smile, took two steps forward and then stepped back, raised his hand and gently pinched Liu Yuetang's face.
