Chapter 49 The Emperor Who Can't Get Down
After laughing twice, Lu Haozhi's smile gradually faded, "Yan'er, are you speaking the truth?"
If it's not the truth, then is it a lie?
Meng Yan's lips curled slightly, "Your Majesty is making fun of me again. I have always been straightforward and frank, so how could I play tricks? I am telling the truth. After the audience with the whole palace today, Sister Imperial Noble Concubine..."
"Okay."
Lu Haozhi interrupted her in a cold tone, losing all interest.
Meng Yan is a noble concubine. As a high-ranking concubine, it is her job to arrange the affairs of the harem. In fact, she should even praise her for her virtue.
But, has she been too virtuous recently?
In the past, Lu Haozhi really enjoyed Meng Yan's infatuation with him and her just the right amount of jealousy, but now he was very uncomfortable with her.
Even though she was angry because she had wronged Lin Yanrong because she was poisoned before and Song Xiyue was throwing a tantrum today, but since he was here, wasn't the meaning obvious?
Does it mean that he, the emperor, must apologize to her humbly?
"Since the Imperial Concubine is ill, please rest and recuperate, and don't worry about these trivial matters."
He smiled coldly and stared at her graceful figure.
Meng Yan was startled at first, but then she smiled politely, stood up and bowed to him, "Your Majesty, I thank you for your concern. I will rest assured to recuperate in Changchun Palace during this period."
It turns out that Lu Haozhi wanted to warn her not to meddle in other people's business and not to cause trouble outside!
He must be afraid that if he interferes, Lin Yanrong will be prevented from sleeping with him!
Even though he scolded Lin Yanrong on the street just now, can the position of the heroine in the hero's heart be shaken?
If it can be shaken, it must have been shaken in the previous life.
Well, she would just be humble and show her attitude, so that he and Lin Yanrong could rest assured, and everyone could live in peace.
Lu Haozhi was stunned by the anger. He was originally waiting for Meng Yan to come and apologize so that he could find a way to get down.
As expected, Meng Yan did this to him, which was like kicking the ladder away, leaving him with no place to step down.
Lu Haozhi glanced at her, stood up and left.
Meng Yan looked at his back with a smile on her lips.
Ruizhu came in hurriedly, helped her up, sat her down on the kang, and asked anxiously, "Your Majesty, I just saw that the Emperor had an angry look on his face when he left. Did you...did you say something to anger the Emperor?"
Meng Yan shook her head and sighed softly, "Nothing, just said a few words he wanted to hear."
Ruizhu was confused. Since this was what the emperor wanted to hear, why was he still angry?
But seeing that her master looked confident, Ruizhu was at a loss for words and could only put away the tea bowl.
Meng Yan looked at the colorful porcelain tea bowl with a gilded fighting cock and said, "Wash this tea bowl clean, wrap it carefully with satin, and find a box to put it in the storeroom. Be careful and don't hit it."
Ruizhu was a little surprised. "Your Majesty, the Emperor only uses this tea bowl when he comes to Changchun Palace. Put it away. The next time the Emperor comes, he will have to rummage through all the boxes and cabinets, which will be a lot of trouble."
Meng Yan shook her head, "That day will never come."
After that, it is the day for the newly chosen ladies to serve the emperor in bed.
If she had not interfered in this life, Lin Yanrong would have been favored long ago. Not to mention her seductive methods, just based on her superior status as the heroine, she would have jumped to the top and firmly occupied Lu Haozhi's heart.
By then, will Lu Haozhi still remember that there is a concubine named Meng Yan in this palace?
She just hoped that she would no longer stand in her way in this life, and that Lin Yanrong would stop thinking about murdering her.
At this moment, Rong An suddenly came in from outside, bowed and said with an apologetic smile, "Your Highness, the Emperor sent me to tell you that the Imperial Household Department has investigated the incident with Concubine Lin the other day. It turned out that Concubine Lin herself felt a little unwell that day, so she sent someone to the Imperial Hospital to get medicine. A small pharmacist mistakenly prescribed thunder god vine. Concubine Lin took the ginger soup that Your Highness ordered and then took the medicine, and that's when the problem occurred. The Emperor has instructed the Imperial Hospital to fine the small pharmacist three months' salary, give him thirty strokes of the cane, and order him to be more careful in the future and never let anything like this happen again."
Meng Yan listened and smiled calmly, "Okay, please tell the emperor, I understand."
She knew that nothing could be found out!
It just so happened that she had ordered the Imperial Hospital to prepare Guizhi Jiang Tang, and Lin Yanrong was unwell and was mistakenly prescribed Thunder God Vine.
This small medical official was most likely a scapegoat. This time he was only fined his salary and given a caning. He was lucky to be able to keep his life.
She had seen a lot of such bad things in her previous life, so she didn't take it to heart.
She was thinking about this, but she saw Rong An hesitated and did not leave, so she asked, "Is there anything else, father-in-law?"
Rong An's mouth was almost grinning from ear to ear. "I dare to ask, Your Majesty, is there anything you want me to pass on to the Emperor?"
Meng Yan was slightly startled and immediately shook her head, "No."
Rong An was stunned for a moment, then bowed quickly and said, "I understand." Then he took his leave.
After he left, Ruizhu said, "This Concubine Lin seems to be a scheming person."
"She's got a lot of ideas."
Meng Yan said lightly, looking at the corrugated gold bracelet inlaid with rubies on her wrist. The rubies looked like blood, making her skin look as white as fat.
Rong An left Changchun Palace and trotted after the imperial carriage.
It was hard for him with his fat body. He ran breathlessly and sweated profusely, but he finally caught up.
Lu Haozhi sat high on the sedan chair, looking forward, and asked condescendingly, "What did she say?"
Rong An replied, "The Queen said she knows."
Lu Haozhi snorted lightly, "What else?"
Rong An wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Your Majesty, no, no, the Queen didn't say anything else."
The young emperor's face suddenly became overcast with gloom. "Rong'an, I think your work has been getting worse and worse lately!"
Rong An had a bitter face and wanted to cry but had no tears. The imperial concubine really didn't say anything, and she couldn't ask him to make up something.
This imperial concubine no longer beats or scolds people, but she still traps and kills people.
He bravely said to Lu Haozhi, "Your Majesty, I believe that Your Majesty still cares about you. Who in this palace doesn't care about Your Majesty? It just so happens that the newly-elected lady has entered the palace, so you might as well favor someone else and ignore Your Majesty for a few days. Your Majesty will feel uncomfortable and know that she is wrong."
From the previous dynasty to the present, how many concubines has Rong'an met?
In the eyes of Rong Da Zongguan, Concubine Meng was just being pretentious, jealous and annoyed, and was playing the game of playing hard to get.
This disease is easy to cure. Just keep her in the cold for a few days and she will be fine.
As soon as he uttered these words, Lu Haozhi's murderous gaze shot down from above, making Rong An feel as if his head was about to fall off.
"Useless servant, do I still come here often these days?"
"Your Majesty, this is just the beginning. You have to be patient and wait until the Empress's anger subsides, then everything will be fine."
