Whenever Ruan Wenjun picked up a piece of food for him with a chopstick, Kankan would also pick up a piece with a chopstick.

It's not like he has clumsy hands and can't eat. He asked for a pair of chopsticks but was refused, and the reason for the refusal was something he couldn't refute.

"Master, the Empress and I are the only ones who can eat in the room right now. You don't want the Empress to be suspected because of you, do you?"

...This netizen who seems to be living a pretty good life, please take my word for it.

But suddenly, he thought of the first time he threatened Ruan Wenjun, and the tone seemed to be similar.

Not only did he think of it, but Ruan Wenjun also thought of it. She blushed and gave the master and disciple a cold look.

As expected, if there is a proper master, there will be a proper apprentice. She definitely did not miss the word "no" in the middle of her words.

Since he couldn't resist, he just enjoyed it. Li Xiuzhu also experienced the happiness of an emperor. He opened his mouth and delicious food and fine wine went into his throat.

Kanan also liked the feeling of feeding the master, as if she found some happiness from it, but her happiness did not last long before she was driven to the door to guard it.

Kanan pouted, her face full of unhappiness, but what could she, a weak, pitiful and helpless little disciple, do?

…

While Li Xiuzhu and the Queen were pouring their hearts out to each other, six women in Wu Zhaoyi's Chenghuan Hall were drinking cup after cup of wine. In addition to the five nine concubines, Concubine Li was also there.

Concubine Li didn't want to come at first, but several people invited her warmly.

Concubine Li was not good at interacting with others. Although she refused, she was no match for the combined forces of several people.

So he was dragged by several women and arrived at Chenghuan Palace in a daze.

At this time, there were several jugs of wine in front of the women, which was obviously prepared in advance.

Concubine Li looked at them and asked helplessly, "What do you want to ask me for? You know, I never take care of things in this palace."

Wu Zhaoyi took the lead in acting after hearing this, and said with a sigh: "We also know that sister doesn't care about things, but we have no choice but to ask sister for help."

"Your Majesty has passed away, and our descendants are also dead. According to etiquette, we will most likely be buried with him."

"Wenhua originally wanted to save the three of us for Concubine Hui's sake, but we offended Concubine Hui yesterday, and Wenhua also hated us."

"We can't help it. We wanted to ask you, Concubine Li, and Concubine Hui to plead for mercy, so we had to ask my sister for help."

Concubine Li had expected this, and said awkwardly, "But Concubine Hui and I don't have much in common, do we?"

"But sister and Concubine Hui are not at odds with each other, right?"

Upon hearing this, Concubine Li was silent for a long time and then nodded, perhaps wanting to do a good deed before she died.

"Okay, I can go and talk to you, but there's no guarantee it will work."

Upon hearing this, Wu Zhaoyi, Qin Zhaorong and others hurriedly said, "Thank you, sister."

"No need to thank me. Well, it's getting late. I'm going to go back and rest."

However, before Concubine Li could stand up, she was stopped by Wang Xiuyi.

"Sister, don't leave in a hurry. Since it's a rare opportunity to get together, why not have a couple of drinks before leaving?"

He continued with a gloomy look: "After all, after these days, we may be separated by the Yin and Yang."

"It's a pity that I entered the palace at the age of twelve, became a talented woman at the age of fourteen, and now I am going to die before I am twenty."

"Woo, woo, woo, our lives as women are so hard."

The involuntary feeling of empathy made Concubine Li stop, and she seemed a little dazed, it seemed that she was only twenty years old this year.

I entered the palace five years ago, and now five years have passed.

At this time, Wu Zhaoyi and Qin Zhaorong looked at each other, and Qin Zhaorong also exposed her shortcomings, sighing and saying: "Now that I am about to die, I am not afraid to tell you that I actually had a childhood sweetheart before I entered the palace."

"I like him very much, and he likes me too, but unfortunately my family sent me to the palace in order to cling to the imperial power."

"I tried to resist, tried to run away from him."

"In order to get me into the palace, they threatened me that if I didn't, they would beat him to death."

"I had no choice but to listen to what my family said."

"Now, I haven't seen him for more than ten years. I don't know how he is doing and whether he has lived up to my efforts."

Qin Zhaorong's words completely resonated with Concubine Li, and she had a feeling of wanting to relieve her worries lingering in her heart.

She first poured a glass of wine from the jug in front of her and drank it.

Then he spoke softly: "I'm sure you all know that I also had a childhood sweetheart."

Concubine Li's childhood sweetheart had all gone to the capital and caused some trouble, so almost everyone in the palace knew about it.

Moreover, her childhood sweetheart was not as lucky as Qin Zhaorong, as he was beaten to death by the emperor.

But she didn't dare to die because the grassland tribe was behind her.

"It has always been my dream to become Gerdan's wife, but I never expected it to be crushed by my father himself."

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

"Haha, that's not right. My love was extinguished by the tribe members."

As she spoke, Concubine Li seemed to recall the expectant and pleading faces in the tribe.

That is the desire for life.

Concubine Li smiled and continued, "Although I chose to marry, I don't regret it. I saved tens of thousands of people in my tribe."

"In this life, the only person I feel sorry for is Gerdan."

As she spoke, Concubine Li looked at Qin Zhaorong.

"I envy you so much that he's still alive."

"And I, my he is dead."

"When he died, my heart died too. Now I live only for the tribe."

At this moment, the women looked at each other, and Qin Zhaorong, Lin Zhaoyuan and Su Xiurong all had a trace of guilt on their faces.

Unfortunately, it's too late to feel guilty now.

The wine in front of the people was spiked with drugs. The drug took a long time to take effect, but was very strong.

Wu Zhaoyi noticed the expressions of the few people and sneered inwardly.

Is she feeling sympathy at this time because she wants to die together? Silly woman! Thinking of this, she picked up the wine glass.

"This glass of wine is in honor of your righteousness, Concubine Li! Let's drink one!"

"This glass of wine is a toast to your lost love, Qin Zhaorong."

"This cup is to celebrate our past."

"With this cup, I hope that we can still live in the future and live peacefully and healthily."

“…”

Once Wu Zhaoyi made a decision, she would not leave any way out for herself.

The women who knew the inside story were also annoyed. If you do this, you might have a grudge against the county lord. You will suffer too! This is cruel to others and yourself! Just after the hour of Hai, Li Xiuzhu came out. Seeing that the master was about to leave, Qianqian pouted and said, "Master, Qianqian is so obedient and good, don't you have any reward for Qianqian?"

Li Xiuzhu came here to steal incense and jade, so what he wanted was just a stick of incense and a piece of jade, so why would he prepare any gifts?

"Ahem, Master, I was in a hurry to go out this time and didn't bring any... Can I make it up to you next time?"

"Hmph, no good~"
