Chapter 133 Concubine Li, You Framed Me
After everything was sorted out, Feng Xiyao brought Ruyi in front of everyone.
She walked to the high seat and sat down, looking down at the concubines below.
She had never managed the harem before, and had never seen the women in Mo Cangyan's harem. Except for Concubine Li, she saw the others for the first time today.
Looking at the bunch of beauties, some fat and some thin, below, she couldn't help but envy Mo Cangyan's life, and felt a little jealous in her heart.
"Greetings to Her Majesty the Queen!"
All the concubines bowed and knelt before Feng Xiyao.
Feng Xiyao sat upright with a dignified and elegant smile on her face.
"Stand up!"
Then everyone stood up.
Just at this moment, a pretty woman stood up, then her body swayed and then fell headfirst.
"What happened to Mr. Shen?"
People around rushed over to help her up.
“…”
Feng Xiyao glanced at Ruyi, and Ruyi shook her head, not knowing why the woman suddenly fainted.
After helping him sit on the chair, Feng Xiyao gently asked, "Are you feeling unwell, Mr. Shen?"
The maid beside Shen Guiren stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, my master has always been weak. He just stood outside the door for a long time and then fainted!"
【It turned out to be hypoglycemia! 】
Feng Xiyao looked at Ms. Shen carefully and saw that her complexion was normal without a trace of paleness on her face, and she did not look like someone with low blood sugar.
Feng Xiyao herself had hypoglycemia before. When she was taking the 800-meter test, she had hypoglycemia and her face turned horribly pale. Fortunately, the physical education teacher saw it and paid for her to go to the school canteen to buy a few lollipops for her...
Thinking of this, she frowned and said to Ruyi, "Go call the imperial physician to take a look!"
When Shen Guiren heard that they wanted to find a royal physician, he quickly raised his hand to stop them.
"No, this is just my old illness. There is no need to call a doctor!"
“…”
Feng Xiyao called Ruyi back, his eyes fell on her, and he looked at her carefully for a few times. Seeing that she was relieved when she heard that there was no need to call the imperial physician, he had the answer in his heart.
Concubine Li shook her handkerchief and glared at the palace maid who had just spoken.
"Mr. Shen, you must discipline your maids. What do you mean by what you said just now? Is it because your mistress has been waiting for the Empress for too long that she has become ill?"
The maid lowered her head and said, "I don't have any!"
Concubine Li said in a gloomy tone, imitating her soft voice: "Not yet, that's what you meant!"
Then he taunted Shen Guiren, "If you are sick, just tell the emperor that you don't need to come to pay your respects, lest you pass on any disease to us!"
Concubine Li knew that it was Shen Guiren's father who had persuaded her cousin to abandon her and sent her to the cold palace. She still remembered this grudge!
It was the first time that Feng Xiyao saw Concubine Li think so quickly, and she nodded with satisfaction.
"Concubine Li, you framed me!"
Shen Guiren felt wronged and looked at Feng Xiyao with red eyes: "Your Majesty, I didn't mean that!"
Feng Xiyao knew whether it was true or not, and waved her hand: "Just know it in your heart, no need to explain it to me!"
There used to be three women in one play, but now there are so many women that I don’t know which play to watch.
In the following time, Shen Guiren was unilaterally beaten by Concubine Li. No matter what Concubine Li said, she just kept crying and was not challenging at all.
In the end, everyone had had enough of the show, and Feng Xiyao asked everyone to leave in boredom.
Ruyi spoke only after everyone left.
"My lady, I think that's what the noble lady Shen meant. You don't know how proud her father is in the court now that Lin Youquan is gone."
"This noble Shen is relying on his father's contribution to the defeat of Lin Youquan, and now he dares to act in front of you, Your Majesty!"
"Perhaps tomorrow the court will hear that the queen abused the concubines in the harem and was vicious and jealous!"
Feng Xiyao sat lazily and listened quietly to Ruyi's analysis.
Her analysis didn't make sense, but Feng Xiyao was not afraid. She just said it. If such a rumor really got out, she wouldn't mind confirming it!
…
After leaving Fengchun Palace, Shen Guiren put away the weak expression on his face and grabbed Li Fei who was about to leave.
She looked fierce: "Concubine Li, you, the daughter of a guilty minister, dare to make things difficult for me, do you want to die?"
The reason why Concubine Li could act so arrogant in front of them before was because she had a general father. Now that Lin Youquan’s rebellion has been defeated, who would be afraid of her?
Concubine Li turned around and said, "How did I make things difficult for you? I was just telling you the truth. I am not like some people who say one thing in public and another behind the scenes, and do evil things everywhere!"
This Shen Guiren is not as gentle as she seems. She has some status and her methods are cruel. Those who are not favored and have no status in the harem listen to her.
Apart from being humiliated by Concubine Li before, Shen Guiren had never felt as humiliated as he did today.
Before, Concubine Li was only thinking about her cousin and had no mood to teach her a lesson. She was the one asking for trouble, and now she is taking the grudge against her.
Not wanting to pay any more attention to this woman, Concubine Li turned and left.
Shen Guiren gritted her teeth and watched Concubine Li's leaving back. She noticed that there was a pond nearby and gestured to Liu Zhaoyi who was standing beside her.
Liu Zhaoyi shook his head in fear, but was frightened by her vicious eyes and could only grit his teeth and rush towards Concubine Li.
"Plop!" With a sound, Concubine Li was knocked into the pond.
"Help...I...can't swim!"
Concubine Li was struggling hard inside, and her ups and downs made her belly full of water.
…
Upon hearing the news that Concubine Li fell into the water and fainted, Feng Xiyao immediately came to Xiuchun Palace.
It was a very cold day and Concubine Li was shivering from the cold, her lips turning purple.
Feng Xiyao frowned: "What's going on?"
Yu'er knelt down crying: "My Queen, it was Liu Zhaoyi. She pushed my Queen into the pond!"
Liu Zhaoyi knelt with her head down: "Your Majesty, I didn't mean it. I just accidentally touched Concubine Li and she fell down..."
Shen Guiren curled the corners of his lips in satisfaction.
Yu'er shook her head: "Liu Zhaoyi did it on purpose. I saw with my own eyes that she bumped into my queen on purpose!"
"At that time, they were still laughing at my queen on the shore, saying she was like a chicken in the water, and they wouldn't let me call for help. Please, Queen, help my queen!"
Liu Zhaoyi stared at Yu'er, his eyes full of warning.
"You little dog slave, how dare you frame me, do you want to die?"
Feng Xiyao said unhappily: "Liu Zhaoyi, I am still here. When will it be your turn to take charge of someone's life?"
Liu Zhaoyi was frightened by Feng Xiyao's eyes and lowered her head hurriedly: "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I am just angry that this dog slave dared to frame me. I have no other intentions!"
Feng Xiyao looked at her coldly: "I think you have a lot!"
At this time, Shen Guiren smiled and said, "Your Majesty, Liu Zhaoyi has always been timid and certainly didn't mean it. Your Majesty, don't be angry!"
Hearing Mr. Shen's protective tone, Feng Xiyao probably had the answer in her heart.
I think it was this Guiren Shen who ordered it. Otherwise, how could a little Zhaoyi, who had no conflict with Concubine Li, push Concubine Li down for no reason?
