"Your Majesty is very kind to me. Anle has offended many people. Besides, a desperate dog will jump over the wall. Her misfortune has nothing to do with Your Majesty. You can just arrange for the Royal Guards to investigate. The Empress is making a big deal out of Your Majesty's safety."
Concubine Huo's mind was also working quickly.
She continued sarcastically, "The Empress' words are full of meaning, as if to make it seem like this palace is unsafe. Your Majesty, the Empress has openly slandered me, accusing me of harboring evil intentions and plotting to harm you. Please, Your Majesty, help me and clear my name."
"you......"
Queen Gu was so enraged by her insults that she wanted to tear Concubine Huo, the vixen, to pieces.
It was obvious that Concubine Huo was trying to hold His Majesty back and not let him leave. She had already blatantly sent people to kill Xiaojiu and kill her. What else could she not do?
No, I can't argue with her here. I have to do everything I can to take His Majesty away first.
"Your Majesty, a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. I am only concerned about your safety and have no other concerns. Please follow me and leave this place."
At this time, Queen Gu tried hard to calm down and was unwilling to get too entangled with Concubine Huo. Instead, she tried her best to persuade Emperor Jianchang to leave together.
"What the Queen said makes sense, my beloved concubine. I have a lot of things to do. I will come to see you in two days."
Emperor Jianchang and Empress Gu had been married for many years, and this was the first time he felt that she was rational, which was beyond his previous understanding of her.
For many years, Gu Qingrong hated to see him and Concubine Huo together. Every time they met, she would become unreasonable, as if her mind was having a seizure. She would make a fuss and curse Concubine Huo, completely lacking the bearing of a mother of a country.
But this time it was different. The calmness and intelligence she displayed were all on point.
He felt that the Queen's behavior today was very unusual, and he wanted to see why she was doing so under the guise of caring for his safety.
Seeing that His Majesty agreed to leave with the Queen, Concubine Huo made up her mind and tears came to her eyes before she could say anything.
"Official business is important. I respectfully see Your Majesty off." As soon as she finished saying this and walked in front of Emperor Jianchang, she fainted.
Queen Gu frowned anxiously when she saw this.
Emperor Jianchang did not expect that Concubine Huo would faint in front of him.
He subconsciously stretched out his arms and caught the falling body.
When Queen Gu saw this, her face turned ashen with anger, and her originally calm and dignified face was twisted with jealousy.
Emperor Jianchang didn't pay any attention to her.
His eyes were all on the unconscious Concubine Huo.
Looking at the face of the person in his arms, which was abnormally red, he put his other hand on Concubine Huo's forehead. The hot body temperature made his face change drastically.
"Come here, summon Cao Youliang, the chief of the Imperial Hospital."
The chief eunuch Zhao Chong who was guarding outside the door hurried to do it.
Concubine Huo's personal maid was so frightened that she knelt before Emperor Jianchang and cried, "Your Majesty, the Concubine has been feeling unwell before, but she has been gritting her teeth and persevering until today to practice a new dance. When you arrived, she ignored her own health and wanted to perform the dance she had painstakingly learned for Your Majesty. The Concubine is deeply in love with you!"
Upon hearing this, Emperor Jianchang bent down and kissed Concubine Huo on the forehead lovingly, then picked her up and walked into the hall.
He gently placed her on the bed. He sat in front of the bed, his eyes gently focused on Concubine Huo's face, and without raising his head much, he said, "Queen, you go back first!"
Emperor Jianchang's cold voice reached Queen Gu's ears.
This scene stimulated Queen Gu.
The worry that had been bothering her for years was brought out, and just as she was about to explode, she heard greetings coming from outside the hall.
