Chapter 181 Forced to board the ship
As soon as the emperor and Concubine Zhang left, Concubine Li was so angry that her face twisted. She smashed everything in her palace. After venting her anger, she felt a little better, but she was still very angry. Her hatred for Concubine Zhang increased a little.
Thinking that Concubine Zhang was still childless, she felt better.
After all, she gave birth to a prince, and he has grown up and may even compete for the throne. If this is true, she will be the real master of the harem in the future! There will be plenty of opportunities to deal with Concubine Zhang. When that happens, she will definitely humiliate and torture Concubine Zhang and return the humiliation she has inflicted on her twice!
Concubine Li fantasized about it in her mind, and the beautiful scene soothed her jealousy, and she even laughed.
The palace servants around were all terrified when they saw this, thinking that Concubine Li was very strange, and they were afraid that she would vent her anger on them. They all wanted to disappear on the spot so that Concubine Li would not notice their existence.
"Your Majesty, the Fourth Prince comes to pay his respects."
"Let him in quickly."
The Fourth Prince Zhao Chengyi walked in and saw the mess in his mother's palace. He frowned immediately, "Mother, what happened?"
Concubine Li didn't care that her son saw it. She waved her hand and asked the palace maids to clean it up. She asked Zhao Chengyi to sit down on the soft couch beside her, and then said, "It's all because of that bitch Concubine Zhang. She doesn't take your mother seriously anymore. Now she is riding on your head and acting arrogantly!"
Concubine Li told Zhao Chengyi what had just happened, but she felt that there was nothing to worry about, and it was not worth her anger. On the contrary, she should be happy and give in to Concubine Zhang in a friendly manner, so that she can win a good reputation in front of her father.
However, Zhao Chengyi did not take this matter to heart, as he had more important things to do.
"Mother, do you know that something happened in the Li Mansion last night?"
Concubine Li was stunned for
a moment, "What happened?" When Zhao Chengyi told her about the matter, Concubine Li was shocked, but she quickly calmed down and said, "Fortunately, it was not my eldest brother's legitimate son who died. It was just a bastard who died."
Zhao Chengyi was not happy to hear this.
Wasn't he a bastard himself? Even if he was a prince, he didn't crawl out of the empress's belly.
Concubine Li didn't notice her son's ugly face, and only asked: "What did your uncle lose?"
"I don't know yet. I went to the palace first after hearing the news."
She was also worried that Concubine Li would do something inappropriate after hearing the news.
But what happened in my uncle's family, why did they send a fish to the palace so early in the morning?
Zhao Chengyi felt that he couldn't get the answer he wanted from his mother, so he went to ask his uncle in person.
"Mother, this matter may not be simple, so before the matter is settled, mother, you must be careful and prudent. Be patient in everything!"
Concubine Li was really a little unhappy when her son said this, but she couldn't bear to be angry with him, so she had to respond with a sullen face.
As soon as Zhao Chengyi left, she smashed things again.
After Concubine Zhang took the fish to her palace, she sent someone to send a letter out of the palace.
Xu Muhua was relieved for a while after receiving the letter, but after seeing what Concubine Zhang said in the letter, she knew that the fish was sent to the palace by the Li family for Concubine Li, and Xu Muhua was furious.
The Li family again, and Concubine Li again!
Her fate is not compatible with the Li family, right?
The next time she goes to the temple to burn incense, she will definitely pray to the Bodhisattva to bless her, to keep her away from the Li family and Concubine Li!
After being frustrated for a while, Xu Muhua quickly cheered up, packed up and prepared to enter the palace!
Since Concubine Zhang summoned her, it was not strange for her to enter the palace.
But Xu Muhua didn't know that Li Gang had already asked someone to keep an eye on her in the Chengguo Mansion.
Li Gang became suspicious after they learned about their identities from Xiang Gong after they left last night.
He had met Xu Nan before, so of course he recognized that the person he saw in the Southern Court was not Xu Nan. It wasn't Xu Nan, but he said he was from the Chengguo Mansion, and he was dressed like a young master. Chengguo has only two sons, one of whom is at the border. Who else could it be if not Xu Nan?
After thinking about it, Li Gang felt that it was very likely that the person was Xu Muhua!
So he asked someone to come and keep an eye on her.
Xu Muhua had just entered the palace, and Li Gang knew about it right after.
Hearing the report from the people below, Li Gang narrowed his eyes, "Concubine Zhang summoned her to the palace?"
Could it be that what happened last night was related to Concubine Zhang or the Zhang family?
Of course Li Gang knew that his sister and Concubine Zhang were not getting along. It's just that although Concubine Zhang is still in great favor, she has no offspring, so she is not a big deal. But what if she joins hands with some prince, or other concubines?
When Li Gang thought that what happened last night was most likely done by the Zhang family and Concubine Zhang, he couldn't sit still!
What was stolen last night was not a red coral tree, but an account book! If that account book falls into the hands of the wrong person, they will all be finished!
Xu Muhua didn't know that she was being targeted, suspected, and forcibly arranged on Concubine Zhang's boat. If she knew, she would probably yell: Excessive brain supplementation is also a disease! It must be treated! When
seeing Concubine Zhang again, Xu Muhua was filled with emotion!
Was she slapped in the face? So, don't be too absolute about everything!
Fortunately, she was thick-skinned. Even if Concubine Zhang was bullying her openly or secretly, she could pretend not to hear it!
Concubine Zhang also felt that it was boring. "Well, go and see the big fish you've been thinking about
!"
Xu Muhua walked to a dark place in the yard in two steps. When she looked out, she saw the familiar big fish and breathed a sigh of relief. She whispered to the fish, "I finally found you. Fortunately, you were not killed, otherwise I would not be able to explain to your little brother!"
The big fish angrily swung its tail hard, splashing water everywhere. Xu Muhua was not in a hurry to avoid it, and was thrown right into it! It was almost like someone washing his face with water!
The palace maid who was waiting at the side was startled, and hurried over to gently wipe the water off her face with a handkerchief, and said fearfully: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Miss Xu, I... I didn't know that the fish would suddenly become like this..."
If the queen knew about it, she would definitely be punished!
Xu Muhua raised her hands and took a deep breath, "It doesn't matter, it's just a fish, it doesn't know anything. Can we argue with a fish? It's okay, don't be afraid, I won't tell the queen."
The maid was grateful when she heard this, "Thank you, Miss Xu!"
"Wait for me over there, I'll be there soon."
As soon as the maid left, Xu Muhua said viciously, "If you mess around again, I'll have someone send you to the kitchen, steamed, fried, stir-fried, or braised!"
