Concubine Wen was the most straightforward person. She had wanted to settle accounts with Concubine Li for a long time, so she came forward with her teeth bared and started to argue with Concubine Li.
"I have endured for so many years in the feudal dynasty, and have always been cautious. I originally just wanted to give birth to a child safely and live a stable life in the harem. But you actually drugged me and secretly used safflower medicine to take my child away... I will fight you!"
Empress Duan and Nanny Cui looked at each other and had no time to stop them. It was not that they deliberately did not pull some people aside, but Concubine Wen's toughness was beyond their expectations.
Back then, the reason why Concubine Wen was given the title of Wenfei was because she was quiet and gentle, and her every move was that of a lady from an aristocratic family.
But who can tell them who the beautiful concubine who is fighting with the palace maids in front of them is.
Oh, I must have seen it wrong.
Concubine Wen has extremely high fighting power. She is a time traveler who was transported back in time from her mother's womb. She has been living according to the standards of a woman of this era, which is extremely frustrating.
When he entered the palace, he just wanted to fish in troubled waters, but who knew he would be chosen.
And she was injured because of a miscarriage, and it was Concubine Li, who was regarded as a good sister, who caused her to suffer. How could she not bear a grudge? If it were in the 21st century, she would just want to shoot Concubine Li, the idiot.
Other people's lives are not lives, just take care of your own life and death! If the queen hadn't reminded her, she would have thought it was her own mistake that caused the child to die.
Concubine Li originally wanted to alienate Concubine Wen and the Queen, but who knew that she would actually attack herself.
"ah!!!"
All I heard was a wailing sound. Of course it was not from Concubine Wen, but from Concubine Li who was beside her.
Concubine Li's face was covered with scratches from nails, and her beautiful hair, which she was most proud of, was also broken by Concubine Wen. For the beauty-loving Concubine Li, this was more terrifying than taking her own life.
Just when she wanted to take revenge and fight with the bitch Concubine Wen, Emperor Shangwen led the Imperial Guards into the cold palace. The scene was so terrifying, as if they were here to catch bandits.
Concubine Wen now restrained her fighting spirit and stood obediently aside, as if the fierce woman just now was not herself.
Concubine Li stared at the scratched little face and spoke to Emperor Shangwen with gritted teeth.
"Your Majesty, please make the decision for me."
Emperor Shangwen felt that he had come at a wrong time, but if he allowed the two to continue making trouble, the harem would probably be overthrown.
The scratches on Concubine Li's face made her look a little funny, which made Emperor Shangwen couldn't help but laugh.
"Concubine Li is under house arrest, why did the Queen and Concubine Wen come to the cold palace?"
Emperor Shangwen asked directly, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.
Concubine Li thought that Emperor Shangwen was helping her, so she felt more confident.
"Your Majesty, the Empress wants to kill me, and Concubine Wen is the knife in her hand. Your Majesty, I am so scared..."
As she spoke, Concubine Li started to cry with great acting skills, her eyes watering.
If it was originally a beautiful face, it would surely attract pity. However, the expression on this scratched face was somewhat funny.
Concubine Wen put away her sharpness and knelt down softly. She wiped her eyes and her tears wet her face.
“Your Majesty, please help me. I thought your little prince was unwell, so I didn’t keep the child.
It was not until two days ago when I went to visit the princess and happened to meet Doctor Yang that I learned that someone had poisoned my body and that my poor child had miscarried because of it!"
After saying that, the maid who came with Concubine Wen brought all the prepared evidence. Emperor Shangwen just glanced coldly at Concubine Li who suddenly fell silent, and took the diagnosis of the imperial physician Shu into consideration.
"Back then, it was Doctor Zhou who took care of my pregnancy. All my medicines came from Doctor Zhou's hands. I trusted Doctor Zhou very much, but I didn't expect that Doctor Zhou was acquainted with Concubine Li. The child in my belly died unjustly!"
Concubine Wen cried so hard that she was unable to take care of herself and almost fainted. Empress Duan thought of Concubine Wen's tough appearance just now and found it hard to associate her with the weak and fragile woman in front of her.
They are really... two completely different people.
"You didn't give birth to a prince because you were unlucky. What does it have to do with me? Concubine Wen, are you teaming up with the Queen to frame me?"
Concubine Li denied it flatly. She certainly would not admit it. She had already been neglected by the emperor. If she was punished again, she would never be able to return to her position as the emperor's favorite concubine in this lifetime.
Queen Duan sneered, "You don't admit anything. Do you think I don't have any evidence here, Concubine Li? God is watching. The prescription that Imperial Doctor Zhou gave is still in Imperial Doctor Shu's possession."
Concubine Li subconsciously said to herself, "It is impossible for Imperial Doctor Zhou to give me a confession..."
But before she could finish her words, the emperor beside her looked at her coldly, obviously having heard her complaints.
"Whether you admit it or not, if you insist, I'll let you do as you please. But if the investigation turns out to be related to you, don't blame me for involving the Lu family!"
Concubine Li finally learned to be afraid. Her biggest supporter was the Lu family, so she was so arrogant and domineering in the harem. However, she did not expect that she would still fail.
Concubine Wen gritted her teeth and said, "Concubine Li, you dare to plot against me, don't you dare to admit it?"
Concubine Li was silent for a while, and finally knelt in front of Emperor Shangwen. Her voice was as soft as a mosquito, and her tone was full of trepidation.
"I just like the emperor, so I did something wrong. I asked the imperial physician to give me a mild dose of musk. It's Concubine Wen's own fault."
Her face was badly scratched and it was a little painful now. Concubine Wen must be crazy to dare to go against her like this.
After she leaves this cold palace, she will never let Concubine Wen have an easy time!
Emperor Shangwen was too lazy to even glance at Concubine Li, and spoke in a cold and serious voice.
"Concubine Li is jealous and has persecuted the Queen's twins and the heir. From today on, she will be demoted to a talented person and is not allowed to leave the cold palace without my permission."
After saying this, Concubine Li collapsed on the ground, hugged Emperor Shangwen's thighs tightly, and cried bitterly.
"I know I was wrong. I beg Your Majesty to spare my life. This cold palace is too cold and dark at night. I am very scared, Your Majesty!"
Emperor Shangwen brushed away Concubine Li's hand as if his hand was stained with dirt. He raised his hand to push Concubine Li away and left the cold palace without looking back.
"Let's go back to the palace."
No matter how sadly Concubine Li called out her name, Emperor Shangwen never even looked at her.
If Concubine Li was just spoiled, Emperor Shangwen would not be so strict. But she had no mercy on children. What was the difference between her and a cold-blooded poisonous snake? He hated her the most.
Concubine Wen was depressed for a long time because of the loss of her child. Emperor Shangwen took this into consideration and rewarded her with a lot of new clothes and jewelry.
In addition, Concubine Wen was specially allowed to summon her parents to the palace to relieve their homesickness.
Concubine Wen had cursed Emperor Shangwen countless times in her heart, ever since she miscarried.
But Concubine Wen was surprised by Emperor Shangwen's thoughtfulness at this time.
In the end, she finally let out a sigh of relief. In the past, she didn't dare to offend Concubine Li and was always submissive. Today, she took revenge.
