Chapter 86: The toad is too strong, and will die sooner or later

In the palace, Concubine De was

a dignified, calm, and taciturn lady. It was the first time for the guards to see Concubine De so undignified and uncalm.

Moreover, it seemed that it was also the first time they saw her worried and flustered. When they were in the palace before, they seemed to have never seen her like this. Even when the emperor was so weak, she didn't show any worry or distress on her face.

She was like a wooden block without emotions.

But now, haha.

It's really a big difference.

But the emperor knows all this.

Yuju is very small, and it only took a short while for Concubine De to search the entire courtyard.

She glared at the Zhu family members standing at the gate, "Tell me, where did you lock up Siyu?"

In fact, everyone was reluctant to follow, but the emperor was still there, and they still needed to listen to Concubine Yougui's words.

Facing Defei's questioning, everyone remained silent.

At this time, a choked voice sounded from behind everyone, "Madam, the young master is here."

The people around dispersed to both sides, and Defei saw two men with scales all over their bodies standing at the gate of the courtyard. The one who spoke was Zhu Siyu's follower, who was also supporting a man with messy hair, drooping head, ragged clothes, and torn skin.

Although the man's face was not visible, Defei still recognized him at a glance.

She walked over, pulled the hair off the man's face, and confirmed him. Seeing that he looked ashen, Concubine De's heart suddenly tightened. She raised her fingers and trembled to put them under the man's nose. When she felt a faint breath, her heart suddenly relaxed a little.

She clenched her hands, looked at the attendant and asked, "Who beat you like this?"

The moment the attendant saw Concubine De, tears fell down. He gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, the young master and I went to the Huguo Temple to burn incense and came back. We encountered robbers, that's why this happened."

His words were intermittent, and every time he said a word, his eyes swept over the group of people behind him one by one.

Seeing his eyes like this, how could Concubine De not understand.

Besides, her father never let Siyu go out, so how could he let him go to Huguo Temple to burn incense and worship Buddha?

She clenched her fists, swallowed the matter, asked her follower Xiaoyuan to help Siyu go in, and then ordered the guards to call the doctor.

She didn't trust the doctor in the palace.

About half an hour later, the doctor walked up to Concubine De and said, "This young man has multiple whippings, needle wounds, and multiple bone injuries. It is estimated that he will need to recuperate for several months before he can recover completely."

Concubine De felt a pain in her heart again, "Then thank you, doctor. You will have to go to the Shangshu Mansion more often in the next few months."

The doctor was terrified to hear that the queen was so polite, and hurriedly bowed and said, "This is what I should do as a doctor."

After sending the doctor away, Shangshu Zhu, who was sitting in the main seat and drinking tea leisurely, spoke slowly, "Your Majesty, can you tell me what Concubine You said?"

Concubine De glanced at him and chuckled. "You Guifei said that toads eat too much meat, and one day they will die suddenly, and all the meat they have eaten will have to spit out."

Minister Zhu, who was drinking tea happily, froze in his tracks. He looked up at Concubine De in surprise, then stood up suddenly, walked to her, and looked a little panicked. "Did she really say that?"

Haha, of course it was fake.

Concubine De sneered in her heart.

I'm sorry, Concubine You Guifei, in order to save Siyu's life, I can only borrow you to block it temporarily.

You are the emperor's favorite concubine, and you are protected by the emperor's people, and the empress dowager is behind you to support you. I

believe you will be fine.

On the contrary, if this matter is successful, you may be able to make contributions in the future.

So I am not too sorry for you.

"Whether you believe it or not is up to you, father."

De Fei said, and she stood up. "Also, I will leave two guards here to protect Si Yu. I hope you can tell my brothers, sisters, and aunts."

"Haha, leaving two guards here, are these your guards?"

Minister Zhu sneered. He knew that she was not favored. How could she leave two guards here? It was really funny.

"This is also what Concubine You Gui meant."

Hearing this, Minister Zhu was furious and approached De Fei. "Tell me, what on earth does she want to do?"

"Father, this, you should ask Concubine You Gui."

Hanlin Academy is the highest institution of learning in the Great Sheng Dynasty. In addition to the children of high-ranking officials and businessmen, there are also ordinary young men recommended by prefectures and counties from all over the country.

At this time, it was after school, and the students saw two carriages parked at the gate of the academy, which attracted their attention.

They recognized the first carriage as the old dean's carriage.

But they had never seen the second one before.

For a while, the students gathered in groups of three or two, talking in a low voice.

"That carriage is so exquisite, it doesn't look like an ordinary carriage in a mansion."

"Haha, how can you see exquisiteness? It's obviously very ordinary. The butler in my mansion can have a carriage like that."

"This shows that you don't know the goods. The carriage looks ordinary at first glance, but you can only find its exquisiteness when you look closely." "

The key is that there is a woman sitting in the carriage."

"Woman?"

The students were surprised.

"What kind of woman can come to the Hanlin Academy?"

"Impossible."

"Besides, the woman inside is a stunning beauty."

Hearing this, the students all laughed, "Do you have a pair of golden eyes?"

"I don't have golden eyes, but I have a compass, I can calculate."

The student raised the compass in his hand slightly so that everyone could see it clearly.

But everyone still didn't believe it, "Come on, you said last time that you calculated that Mr. Li would have great luck on that day, but he ended up falling into a cesspool."

"Look, it's really a woman's hand!"

Everyone looked in the direction of what was said, and saw the curtain being opened by a woman's hand. Then, they saw the plump Daya bending over and walking out.

The scholars immediately collectively exclaimed, "Look, look, this is the peerless beauty you talked about."

"If we believe you again in the future, we will be cuckolds."

"Okay, you said it."

"Must..."

"Damn, it's really a beauty!"

Before the words were finished, several students suddenly widened their eyes and stared at the woman who got off the carriage.

"Oh my god, those eyes, that face, that figure, where did this little goblin come from?"

"Let me calculate."

The student holding the compass did not take his eyes off Lin You, but his hands moved slowly.

"Ahem!"

As soon as the old dean led Lin You into the gate, he saw all the students, dumbfounded, like they had lost their souls, their eyes followed Lin You closely, some even drooled.

He suddenly felt that he was going to lose face, and he coughed hard several times, trying to get them to come back to their senses, but no one responded.

"Hi, seniors."

Lin You was a little embarrassed by the stares of everyone, so he forced a smile, waved his hand, and greeted the students dryly.
