Chapter 73 Self-humiliation
Yun Li came and talked about everything that happened to Concubine Shu in the West Courtyard. Of course, she didn't say that she was the one who drugged Liu Momo and Concubine Shu...
"Hahahaha...hahaha...I'm dying of laughter! How could this happen! Your Majesty has been utterly humiliated this time!"
After hearing this, Wei Sisi laughed so hard that she fell backwards.
"Ouch~ I can't hold it anymore, my stomach hurts from laughing so hard! I really regret not being there. I'm afraid Concubine Shu's behavior is the first time in history that a concubine has suffered from incontinence! This will be recorded in the annals of history...
Haha ...
Yunli and Xia Yanzhi couldn't help but laugh out loud along with Wei Sisi.
…
"Damn Liu Momo, did she eat something dirty, or did she get something dirty on her body that made me look like a fool! Damn it!"
"Come here, drag Liu Momo out and give her ten lashes as a warning to others!"
"Yes! Your Majesty, I obey your command!"
Concubine Shu sat in the bathtub, which was full of rose petals. She had already bathed five times and changed five large buckets of water. Only then did she feel a little cleaner. She hated Liu Momo in her heart.
But after all, she brought them into the palace from the mansion when she got married. All these years in the harem, thanks to Liu Momo, she helped to take care of it. The princess and the prince were also raised by her. Even if she had no credit, she had worked hard. Liu Momo was also the person she trusted the most.
That's why she couldn't be so cruel. If it were someone else, they would have dragged him out and beaten him to death.
…
The next morning, everyone in Jing'an Temple was busy, the air was filled with incense, candles of all sizes lit up the entire temple, and red silk was tied everywhere. Today was a day for praying.
All the ladies and ladies got up early, dressed neatly and came to the Buddha Hall of Jing'an Temple to wait.
The eunuch's sharp voice came, "The Concubine Shu is here! The Third Princess is here!"
Everyone bowed and said, "May the Empress Shu be well, and may the Third Princess be well."
Concubine Shu glanced at everyone and asked, "Everyone, get up! Is everyone here?"
Yun Wei replied: "Your Majesty, everyone is here, but my third sister hasn't come yet."
Concubine Shu frowned: "On such an important day, is Yunli dead? How rude! Someone, bring Yunli here!"
As soon as the words fell, Yun Li appeared in front of everyone. "No need to trouble your majesty, your servant is here."
She bowed slightly to the Concubine Shu, then stood up with a smile on her face, not taking the Concubine Shu's anger seriously.
"Yun Li, you really don't know what's good for you. Don't you know what day it is today? You've delayed the national blessing. How many lives are enough for you to pay for it? I'm afraid the entire Prime Minister's Mansion will suffer along with you!"
The third princess also echoed: "Yun Li is really the most daring and shameless person I have ever seen! A little concubine's daughter is so arrogant, people who don't know her would think she is a princess from some country. It's okay if you don't take me seriously! I am tolerant and will not argue with you.
But today is such an important day, and you let us all wait here for you alone. Do you think it’s appropriate?
It seems that the reflection you have had these days has not made you realize your mistakes.
Otherwise, how can you be so presumptuous in front of the Buddha! Mother, Yunli must be severely punished to teach her a lesson! "
None of the ladies standing by stood up to speak for Yun Li. They all thought that it was wrong for her to be late for such an occasion. Moreover, Yun Li was a concubine's daughter, and it was not worth it for any of them to stand up to speak for her and offend the Concubine Shu. That would be more trouble than gain.
Yun Li glanced around and said coldly: "Your Highness, it's not that I'm late on purpose. In fact, I came a long time ago. But why did I show up now? The reason has something to do with Your Highness."
As soon as the words fell, everyone was in an uproar, their eyes stopped at her, and then looked at Concubine Shu.
Concubine Shu glanced at her and said nonchalantly, "Oh, what does your being late have to do with me? I didn't meet you or summon you this morning. Are you lying and trying to put the blame on me?"
Yun Li smiled faintly and said, "Her Majesty Shufei didn't summon me today, but she did last night. What happened between Liu Momo and Her Majesty in the West Courtyard last night...
It is really hard for me to accept this. So when I came back last night, I always felt that I had become smelly. I took a bath several times but still felt that I was not clean.
I woke up today and was about to walk to the main hall, but then I realized it was an important day to pray for the country and I couldn't neglect it. I was afraid that the filthy smell from the west courtyard last night would pollute this holy place of the Buddha, so I turned back to bathe, burn incense, and change clothes! That's why I was delayed a little!
"How dare you! Yunli, do you know what you're saying? You're full of lies. What does your lateness have to do with my mother? If you have the guts, explain yourself clearly!"
"Okay, then I'll explain it in detail..."
Concubine Shu's face turned red and blue. She didn't expect Yun Li to openly tell everyone what happened last night.
He shouted coldly, "Enough! Shut up!"
Yun Li's words left everyone confused and aroused their imaginations. Except for Concubine Shu and her maids, everyone else was confused, their eyes lingering between her and Concubine Shu.
Concubine Shu turned to look at the abbot and said hurriedly: "Abbot, let's begin the blessing ceremony!"
The abbot nodded, and the young monk beside him, carrying a basket, distributed the incense prepared in advance to everyone one by one, and then led everyone into the center of the hall.
…
In the evening, West Courtyard
"Mother, that little bitch Yunli said that to you in public, why didn't you punish her? Did something really happen last night?"
The Third Princess was furious and stood up for Concubine Shu. At the same time, she was also confused about the hidden meaning of Yun Li's words. After the morning prayer ceremony, she asked Liu Momo privately, but Liu Momo looked confused and said nothing. No matter how she asked, Liu Momo said nothing happened and told her not to ask anymore...
"Xue'er, nothing happened, so don't ask! Don't worry, Mother Yunli will take care of it and vent your anger!"
Concubine Shu was thinking that Yun Li had almost embarrassed her in public today, and even used last night's embarrassing incident to threaten her. How could she let her go if she didn't take her seriously?
Helian Xue suddenly had an idea, and a calculating glint flashed in her eyes. "Mother, why don't we do this..."
After a long pause, Concubine Shu finished listening and smiled smugly: "Xue'er, you're really smart! Your idea is excellent, killing two birds with one stone. Not only can you prevent that little bitch from entering the palace, but you can also humiliate her. Look at her seductive appearance. Which young master in the capital would dare to want her in the future? But in the end, she got a bargain!"
"Mother, I think the guards around you are more than enough for a little concubine like me! Guards and concubines are a perfect match!"
