Pei Su's cold face soon appeared in the hall.
The two men knelt down to greet each other, and Pei Su pulled Qiao Luoluo up.
He almost completely ignored the hand that Concubine Xiang extended to him when she saw him bending down.
Pei Su pulled Qiao Luoluo up, looked her left and right for a long time, and made sure that she was okay.
He heaved a sigh of relief, then said viciously, "I see that you are fine, how could you be so careless and fall into the water?
You were so unsteady that you even made Concubine Xiang dive into the water to save you. If she caught a cold, what would be your punishment? "
Qiao Luoluo maintained his image as a rookie and fell to his knees begging for mercy.
Pei Su snorted coldly, sat on the bed, and then asked Concubine Xiang, "Are you okay? If someone falls into the water, the servants will go to rescue them. You are so anxious and worried. If he choked on the water and caught a cold, wouldn't it make me so heartbroken that I can't sleep at night?"
This deep voice and this affectionate look even for dogs.
It is this contrast between being cold in front of outsiders and smiling brightly and considerately when seeing you that is the most intoxicating.
Damn, Pei Su, you got me this one!
As expected, Concubine Xiang, who had just been feeling lost, blushed instantly, bowed and said, "I was just instinctively trying to save her. Concubine Qing is the emperor's beloved, and naturally she is also someone I care about.
As a concubine, I should share the emperor's worries."
Pei Su chuckled, "Who else is my beloved besides you? Don't test me like this."
Concubine Xiang smiled, "Your Majesty is truly wise and intelligent. He saw through my little thoughts right away. I know what's going on and I won't dare to do it again."
Pei Su nodded, and then he saw Qiao Luoluo still kneeling on the ground.
Said, "Mrs. Qing, please get up and be more careful next time."
Qiao Luoluo Shane stood up. His legs felt a little sore after kneeling for so long.
When he stood up, his body swayed slightly.
Both of them quickly stood up to help, one by one, grabbing Qiao Luoluo's arm.
Qiao Luoluo was so embarrassed that he quickly thanked him.
Concubine Xiang hugged her waist and said, "Go lie down on the bed quickly. The medicine is not ready yet. Drink it to sweat, otherwise you will catch a cold."
Pei Su said, "She is just a little noble lady, there is no need to disturb you here, let her go back to the palace to rest, I will accompany you for lunch."
Concubine Xiang smiled and said, "How can there be any disturbance? I see that Sister Qing likes her very much, so I will let her rest here. I will take care of her and then accompany the emperor for dinner."
Pei Su was so angry. This bad woman actually tried to steal his wife from him?
Pei Su was extremely unhappy and looked at Qiao Luoluo, only to find that he was lowering his head to pick the small burrs on his fingers.
Hiss, why is she so heartless?
Concubine Xiang arranged the meals without any explanation and made a sick meal for Qiao Luoluo.
The emperor had no choice but to have dinner with Concubine Xiang.
After dinner, Pei Su wanted to take Qiao Luoluo back with him, but Concubine Xiang said she wanted to keep Qiao Luoluo to talk.
Qiao Luoluo noticed Pei Gou's suppressed anger and quickly tried to smooth things over. "I'd better go back. My sister is still waiting for me in the palace. She will definitely be anxious if she doesn't know about me."
After she said this, Concubine Xiang was at a loss and felt a little unhappy.
Humph, just go with him, you don’t want me.
We agreed that we would be the best in the world, didn't we? A fickle woman.
Pei Su rode the imperial sedan chair, and Qiao Luoluo followed in a sedan chair back to Yian Palace.
Everyone thought that Qiao Luoluo would definitely sleep with the emperor today.
Who knew that he was seduced into his room by Concubine Qin again.
Now, Qiao Luoluo’s jokes were all over the palace.
Another two days passed, and the once-powerful Concubine Liu was ignored by the emperor for several days because she started a quarrel in the imperial garden.
She was unwilling to give up, so she immediately jumped out to seek death again, dancing in the imperial garden to attract the emperor's attention.
After much difficulty, she lured the emperor into her palace, but unexpectedly, the emperor was almost bitten by a poisonous snake that appeared out of nowhere.
So in order to ensure safety, they had to search the palace extensively.
Who would have thought that witchcraft items would be found under the peach tree in the backyard.
The target of the curse was the queen, and the entire palace was shocked.
The Queen was furious, and the Emperor was also furious. They immediately ordered Concubine Liu to commit suicide, regardless of the fact that Concubine Liu was covered in blood and crying out for injustice.
With the situation in the harem like this, the Liu and Lin families, who had originally been on good terms in the court, became extremely unfavorable because of this incident.
The Liu family held some military power and had considerable prestige in the court, and they were constantly fighting with the Lin family day and night.
In order to protect themselves, the Lin family exposed the evidence of the Liu family's corruption and bribery.
When the Liu family's property was ransacked, the Lin family's affairs were naturally exposed.
The Lin family sacrificed their own business to save their own, abandoning several close relatives who were doing business and cutting off almost one-third of their financial supply.
But at least it can be regarded as the main force of the Lin family.
However, he no longer dared to do those crazy and suicidal behaviors, so he restrained himself temporarily.
The Lin family began to doubt the emperor's attitude towards them and urged the queen to test the emperor.
He also urged the queen to quickly conceive a dragon child.
Isn’t the Queen in a hurry?
The queen is more anxious than them!
The emperor lingered in the flowers, seeking pleasure all day long, and was surrounded by beautiful women.
When he was the crown prince, he remained chaste for Qiao Luoluo and never took in other women.
Now it has become empty talk, isn’t it still accompanied by a bunch of women?
Although the queen loved him terribly, she had to say that men are cold-hearted and forget the old and love the new.
But he has so many new loves, why can't she be one of them?
I thought that when Qin Yuzhu came, the emperor would favor her alone, after all, she looked exactly like Qiao Luoluo.
But she didn't see the emperor really taking her seriously.
The queen just felt that after knowing Pei Su for so many years, she had never seen through him.
However, since you, Pei Su, are not taking the initiative, then she has to take the initiative herself.
It is a risky move and there is no time to lose.
At this moment, the queen held a packet of medicine powder in her hand and looked at the sky outside the window which was gradually getting darker.
She finally decided to take action.
The personal maid said worriedly, "Your Majesty, are you really going to tell the Emperor..."
She didn't dare say anything more, but just looked down at the powder bag in the queen's hand.
The Queen clenched her fists and said, "I have no other choice. Tonight is the fifteenth day of the lunar month, and the Emperor will definitely come. This powder is colorless and odorless, and the Emperor cannot detect it.
He never drinks with me, remember, I'll put it in the sweet soup later."
"Yes, I will definitely do it."
As soon as the queen handed the powder to the palace maid, the eunuchs outside sang loudly, "The emperor has arrived!"
