2 The Concubine's Plot



The Book Reading Pavilion is a three-story building hidden in greenery. It was the place where Emperor Xianzong often stayed in his spare time.

When Yu Xiaoxiao brought Nanny Wang into a spacious room on the third floor of the library, there was only a beautiful woman in palace dress sitting in the room, with several palace maids standing beside her. Emperor Xianzong was not in the room.

"Your Highness the Princess is here," the beauty saw Yu Xiaoxiao coming in, and waved to her, saying, "Come and sit down here with me."

Yu Xiaoxiao could recognize who this person was without being introduced. This charming beauty was Concubine Zhao, who would soon become the queen. "My father, no, where is my father?" Yu Xiaoxiao asked Concubine Zhao.

Concubine Zhao said, "The emperor left early because of something urgent. He asked Your Highness to wait for him here for a while."

"Then I'll come back later," Yu Xiaoxiao turned and was about to leave.

Concubine Zhao hurriedly said, "Why are you so impatient today, kid? Come and sit down. I have something to tell you."

Yu Xiaoxiao took a few steps forward and said, "You go ahead."

Concubine Zhao wiped her eyes with the handkerchief in her hand and said, "I haven't slept for several days because of you, Princess."

Yu Xiaoxiao didn't say anything, just looked at Concubine Zhao. She hadn't slept for several nights. She must be planning something bad.

Concubine Zhao said, "You and the third son of the Gu family are engaged after all. It was arranged by the Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager has always regarded the third son of the Gu family as your fiancé over the years. But the Gu family has committed such a serious crime now. How can you marry into the Gu family, Princess?"

This statement contained a lot of information, and Yu Xiaoxiao was temporarily overwhelmed. The cruel empress, the husband who looked like an immortal and otherworldly person, was called Wen Fenglin. How come there was another fiancé named Gu? It turned out that husband Wen was not the original wife either!

When Nanny Wang heard what Concubine Zhao said, she became furious and knelt on the ground, saying, "Concubine Zhao, the third son of the Gu family has both legs crippled. Your Highness the Princess cannot marry him!"

Yu Xiaoxiao recalled that the cruel empress's lovers could almost be found in a hundred surnames, but there was still no boy with the surname Gu.

Concubine Zhao did not let Nanny Wang get up either. She just looked at Yu Xiao and said, "Your Highness, how could the Queen leave like this? I, I still want to cry when I think about it now."

When Concubine Zhao was describing her thoughts about the Queen, which were like the endless torrents of the river, Yu Xiaoxiao looked at the window behind Concubine Zhao. There was a pool of clear water outside the window. It was early autumn, and there were still as many lotus leaves in the water as in midsummer. The breeze made the water ripple. In the end times, the environment was polluted, so how could Yu Xiaoxiao see such a scenery? So even if the scenery outside the window was just a subtle part of the beautiful scenery on earth, Yu Xiaoxiao was fascinated by it.

Concubine Zhao expressed her feelings for a long time, but when she saw Yu Xiaoxiao didn't respond, she felt a little confused. Was the princess, who would come up to her and talk to her affectionately on weekdays, a little too cold today? "Princess, I'm doing this for your own good," Concubine Zhao pulled Yu Xiaoxiao's hand, her eyes red as she said, "The Gu family has committed a capital crime, so it's only natural for you to marry someone else. But for a girl, choosing a husband and marrying someone else is detrimental to her reputation. I've thought about it these days, and I think that Your Highness should go somewhere to hide first, and come back after the Gu family incident is over."

Yu Xiaoxiao looked at Concubine Zhao and she smelled a conspiracy.

Concubine Zhao said, "Let His Majesty grant Her Royal Highness a piece of land. Her Royal Highness will go there first. If you are worried about His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince, you can take him with you. Don't worry, he won't be gone for too long. When His Majesty executes the entire Gu family, I will remind him to summon Her Royal Highness the Princess back to the capital as soon as possible."

Mouth!

The beauty of the world is not important. Yu Xiaoxiao is angry now. She said why should the emperor, who is called Xianzong but not virtuous at all, drive his daughter out of the house just because he makes his concubine his first wife? It turns out that the silly daughter was fooled by the concubine!

"Your Highness," Concubine Zhao wiped her tears with her orchid fingers raised, crying, "I really don't want you to leave, Your Highness."

Yu Xiaoxiao squinted her eyes and looked at Concubine Zhao. If she said to Concubine Zhao now, "Her Royal Highness the Princess promises you that she will take care of all matters concerning her trip to her fiefdom," when she was on the road, she would find that among the hundreds of boxes, there were only a few pieces of cloth packed by Concubine Zhao. When she wanted to go back to find Emperor Xianzong, she would find that the four gates of the capital were guarded by Concubine Zhao's party. She could not go home, and she would just starve to death on the way.

"Your Highness, you cannot leave the palace," Nanny Wang knelt on the ground and shouted to her own princess. She was a sensible person. The third son of the Gu family could not marry, but the eldest princess could not leave the palace either. If she was not in front of the emperor, Concubine Zhao would definitely harm the queen's children.

Yu Xiaoxiao walked up to Concubine Zhao. She was so deliberate in bullying two motherless kids. She deserved to be skinned alive by the cruel empress. "Do you want to die?" Yu Xiaoxiao asked Concubine Zhao.

At this time, Concubine Zhao saw Emperor Xianzong walking in from the outside. She didn't have time to think about why the princess asked her if she wanted to die. She cried, "I want to die. I really want to go to hell for the queen!"

Yu Xiaoxiao grabbed Concubine Zhao by the collar and threw her out of the window. If she wanted to die, then she would grant her wish.
