Before Qiao Yuange could react, Xiao Liang had already pulled him out the door.
The emperor sat on the chair, confused. He stood up and stretched out his hand, coughed lightly, and wanted to maintain his dignity and respect as an emperor. However, he could not care less about this and asked anxiously, "Where are you going? Can't you take me with you?"
No one answered him. The two men ran faster than rabbits.
Seeing that the emperor was not busy reviewing the memorials, but was actually thinking about going out for a stroll with these two people, Xiao Xiaoxiao hurried over and said helplessly, "Your Highness, there is news from Fengming that Xiao Yuli met with Prince Yun in the restaurant the day before yesterday."
The relaxed expression on the emperor's face suddenly froze at this moment. He retracted his gaze and asked in a cold voice, "What did they say?"
"What they said is very convincing, but..."
As soon as he said this, the emperor interrupted him and said, "But since they have already met, it doesn't matter what they said. All we can do is to be vigilant. Send a message to Feng Wu. We can't just sit there and wait for death."
夌䭹䭹 nodded, and there was a hint of calmness in his eyes.
Although Xiao Liang's action of pulling Qiao Yuange away was rather rough, he was indeed careful. Seeing Qiao Yuange and her panting behind him, he even stopped and waited for Qiao Yuange.
It took the two of them half an incense stick of time to arrive at Concubine Xi's Piaoxiang Garden.
Qiao Yuange watched Xiao Liang lead her over, and she suddenly felt relieved.
She had been thinking that if she met Xiao Liang today, she would use all sorts of persuasion, coaxing and deceiving him to go to Piaoxiang Garden to meet Concubine Xi.
This was the only way her plan could be implemented, but before she could make a move, Xiao Liang took action on his own.
She didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Wasn't this going too smoothly?
The concubine was sitting on a chair in the yard, with a bandage wrapped around her neck. Her eyes were red, as if she had been crying, and she looked a little tearful, which made me feel sorry for her.
Beside her, the maid was fanning herself intermittently, looking drowsy.
She seemed to be in deep pain, pounding the table with her hands, gritting her teeth, and whispering something to the maid.
"Why would the emperor attack me? Could it be that the emperor really likes Qiao Yuange so much that he is willing to go against the queen mother for her? But what did I do wrong?"
The more Concubine Xi spoke, the angrier she became.
At this moment, Xiao Liang walked through the door, came in front of Concubine Xi, and swept the food on her table. The plates and cups on the table made a rustling sound.
Although Xiao Liang's move was not very graceful, it still made Qiao Yuange feel very good!
The concubine's neck was hurting, but the wound had not healed yet. When she heard the voice, she was startled. She turned around and was about to get angry, but the man who appeared in front of her was actually Xiao Liang, the person she had been thinking about day and night?
She stood up immediately, her face turned red, and her eyes were evasive.
But when her eyes swept over Qiao Yuange who was standing next to Xiao Liang, she felt as if someone had poured a bucket of cold water over her head, and she was enlightened!
She? How could it be her? Why would this woman follow Xiao Liang here?
Even - Xiao Liang destroyed the delicacies on her table with one hand, and held Qiao Yuange's hand with the other, the two of them looked as if they had known each other for a long time.
Her eyes fell on the two people's holding hands, and the jealous anger was about to burst out at this moment, but after all, in front of her beloved man, she still remained rational and wanted to maintain her dignity.
"King Liang, what are you doing?"
Although she still tried to pretend to be gentle, Concubine Xi's tone had already given it away.
She stared at Xiao Liang, her gentle eyes filled with unconcealable anger.
She even had a wound on her neck, which was now covered with gauze.
This made Qiao Yuange a little confused. How did Concubine Xi get injured? Wasn't she the imperial concubine? Why would someone do that to her?
"You don't know what the prince came here for! Look, did you beat Qiao Yuange like this? You are also a woman, you also live in the palace, and you know how hard life is in the palace. How could you do such a cruel thing to Qiao Yuange, who is also a woman?"
Xiao Liang was the first to be hit, and he was indignant, which made Qiao Yuange, who was standing next to him, feel a little embarrassed...
Xiao Liang was also the first man who took the initiative to avenge her after hearing the news.
Although she didn't know Xiao Liang's motive, she was still very moved.
Concubine Xi's eyes flashed, and she was about to cry with grievance. She immediately said in disbelief: "Why did you come to question me? I am also a victim, right? The Queen Mother insisted that I do it, what can I do? Do you think I want this? I am living under someone else's roof, if I don't do it, the Queen Mother will suspect me!"
When Concubine Yi said this, she swallowed her saliva, and aggrieved, she pointed at her neck and said, "I originally thought that Qiao Yuange was just an ordinary woman, but who would have thought that when the emperor saw that she was injured, he immediately flew into a rage, and he asked the secret guards around him to capture me and cut a deep gash on my neck!"
this……
Qiao Yuange and Xiao Liang were both stunned.
After being severely beaten, Qiao Yuange passed out. She had no idea what happened afterwards. When she woke up, she was already in the room.
Could it be that it was because of the emperor's intervention that he was able to escape?
Not only did he escape, he even attacked Concubine Xi?
Qiao Yuange was immediately very curious and really wanted to know what happened after he passed out.
How could it be such a coincidence that I had to faint at that exact time?
Apparently, Concubine Qi had not revealed all of her grievances. She stared at Qiao Yuange intently, with eyes that seemed as if she wanted to eat Qiao Yuange up.
"Qiao Yuange, what did you tell the emperor? Why is the emperor willing to fight the queen mother for you? Why is he willing to accept the queen mother's conditions? He even kidnapped me to threaten the queen mother for you, and hurt me without mercy?"
When Concubine Xi said this, she finally couldn't hold back any more, and her tears dropped down. That look made Xiao Liang forget for a moment what he came here for.
Xiao Liang lowered his eyes, but he didn't expect that the emperor would actually go against the empress dowager for Qiao Yuange and hurt his own concubine.
This was something he had never expected.
Could it be that Qiao Yuange has really become the emperor's weak spot? It seems that the queen will have to hang around the palace more often. Too many things have happened in the palace in the past two days when he was away.
