The courtyard that had been so magnificent just now was now filled with only a few people staring at each other in amazement.
Since Concubine An had already achieved her goal, she bowed and left to tell Concubine Dowager An about this.
When she was about to leave, her eyes fell on Xiao Liang's face, and she said to him in a rather reproachful tone: "What can I say to you? You are already such an adult now. If you have nothing to do, don't come to the palace!"
"You have always liked to show off your charm. Now, a woman is clinging to you. If it weren't for Ming Fei's unrequited love for you, you wouldn't be able to escape today! You are already such a grown-up, don't let your mother worry!"
Concubine An's words were obviously spoken from the perspective of her sister. Xiao Liang did not say anything, but just lowered his head.
Upon seeing this, Concubine An sighed and hurried away with her maid.
Seeing that Concubine Ming and Concubine An were both upset, Xiao Liang quickly came up and said unhappily, "Brother, why do you have to do this? Are you deliberately causing trouble?"
Xiao Liang is the son of Concubine An, and Concubine Ming is the niece of the Empress Dowager.
When this happened, Xiao Liang was fine, but Ming Fei was locked up in the cold palace. If the empress dowager knew about this, she would definitely be furious. No one knew why the emperor would suddenly do this.
The emperor's expression was quite calm and composed, and it was obvious that he did not take it seriously. He then said nonchalantly: "It's okay, don't worry. Do you think the queen mother will be willing to let Ming Fei go to the cold palace? She will definitely find a way to get Ming Fei out. There are some things that I don't say, but it doesn't mean that I don't know."
After saying this, the emperor turned around and looked at Xiao Liang meaningfully.
Xiao Liang was originally holding Qiao Yege's hand, but when he saw the emperor's warning glance, he immediately loosened his hand, coughed lightly, and said to the emperor, "I knew you were reluctant to do anything to Ming Fei. I thought you wanted to vent your anger for Qiao Yege!"
The emperor's eyes fell on Qiao Yuge. Seeing Qiao Yuge's calm face and no reaction after seeing such a good show, the emperor felt very strange.
He turned around and said proudly, "It's not because of her. Some things, once they have begun, can no longer be turned back."
Xiao Liang didn't understand what the emperor meant by this, but the emperor had already made up his mind.
Xiao Liang turned to look at Qiao Yege and lowered his voice, as if he was afraid of being heard by the emperor: "Don't you think that my brother has become more profound now? My brother was not like this before. Could it be that my IQ can't keep up, so I can't understand what the emperor said?"
Qiao Yuge also felt that Prince Liang had a cheerful personality and was interesting to talk about. After a while, she became familiar with Prince Liang and no longer cared about her humble status. She said helplessly, "In my opinion, Your Highness Prince Liang should worry about himself instead of the Emperor. If the Queen Mother really blames you, what will you do?"
Prince Liang really didn't take it seriously. He was still looking at the emperor's back, as if he had to figure out what the emperor was thinking today. He didn't even look at Qiao Yuge. He clasped his hands together and thought about this matter carefully: "Ah, it's okay. Just like my brother said, Concubine Ming will be fine."
"Besides, it was Concubine Ming who was wrong in the first place. The Queen Mother would not make too much noise about it, but would secretly suppress the matter, and the Emperor would successfully catch her."
"But have you noticed that my brother has changed a lot..."
Xiao Liang seemed to be thinking about something. Qiao Yege, who was standing beside him, was so anxious that she quickly stretched out her hand and waved it in front of Xiao Liang's face: "Your Highness, please tell me, what will happen to Ming Fei?"
Originally, if the fact that Ming Fei liked Xiao Liang had not been discovered, Qiao Yuge had also thought about finding a way to let others know about it and let Ming Fei receive the punishment she deserved - who made this woman show no mercy when she whipped him?
Qiao Yege still remembers that every time Ming Fei whipped him, she was furious. It was obvious that she was not satisfied with Qiao Yege!
As for why he was not satisfied, Qiao Yege didn't know either.
But at least the emperor avenged Qiao Yege, whether it was sincere or just for convenience. Anyway, Qiao Yege didn't need to do it.
The more Xiao Liang thought about it, the weirder it seemed.
Although he has always been a free and easy person, he will not force himself if he can't figure out something.
But he was so curious about this matter that he lost his mind while thinking about it.
Qiao Yuge was left standing there alone. After thinking for a long time, he quickly followed him back to Taixing Palace.
The main gate of Taixing Palace was open. When Qiao Yuge opened the door of her room, she saw two maids hiding at the door. These two maids were Jianhong and Cuiqing.
She was stunned immediately. She never expected that these two women would be so bold as to eavesdrop outside the emperor's palace?
She walked over and stood behind the two maids. Then she grabbed one of them by the collar with both hands and escorted them to the main hall of Taixing Palace.
The two women were doing something wrong in the first place, and at this moment a man suddenly appeared behind them. They were already scared to death, but unexpectedly, the man pushed them into the main hall.
"Bang!"
There were two loud noises, and everyone in Taixing Palace was stunned.
The emperor sat on the main seat, and behind him stood Eunuch Li and Fengming.
Sitting next to her was the Queen Mother, who had one hand on the table, and standing beside her were Nanny Xi and another maid.
Everyone in the main hall was shocked by this sudden change. Fengming immediately stood in front of the emperor, fearing that this was an assassin.
The two maids were lying on the ground. Cuiqing was timid to begin with. After she lay down, she had no idea what was going on and her brain was slow to work. Since she didn't know how to end the situation, she could only lie there.
Jianhong reacted quickly. She was attacked from behind and became furious. She even forgot where she was. When she turned around and saw that it was Qiao Yuge, she was even more furious: "Qiao Yuge, are you blind? Why did you push me?"
Qiao Yuge came in, squatted beside Jianhong, and said calmly: "Do you know where this is? You dare to eavesdrop in front of the emperor, how many heads do you have?"
Without waiting for Jianhong to refute, Qiao Yuge immediately stood up, respectfully saluted the emperor and the queen mother, and said to them, "This maid is unruly, which is a taboo in Taixing Palace. I hope the emperor will teach her a lesson."
