Fragrance Hall
Murong Hong sat in a high seat with a gloomy expression on his face.
Below, Concubine Shu was kneeling on the cold stone bricks, shivering.
"Bang."
The teacup fell on the edge of her skirt, and the scalding tea splashed on her, causing her to scream.
"Your Majesty, spare my life."
"Mercy?"
A storm gathered in Murong Hong's eyes. "I didn't know you had such a good trick. You kill two birds with one stone. Even I am being played in your hands!"
“…”
To say that Shu Guiren's schemes were not particularly brilliant, her advantage was that Murong Hong had never been on guard against her, so she succeeded.
Shu Guiren knew that she could no longer hide it, so she simply admitted it and knelt in front of Murong Hong and cried, "It was the devil that bewitched me, but I didn't mean to play tricks on the emperor. I just love the emperor and want to be with you all the time."
"Haha, at this point, you still want to deceive me!"
Concubine Shu looked sad, "I have been with the Emperor for several years, not seeking fame or favor. If I really wanted wealth and glory, why did I enter the palace just to seek the position of a noble?"
Upon hearing this, Murong Hong's expression softened slightly. Although Shu Guiren had made a mistake, her companionship over the years was not fake.
When he was still an unfavored prince, Shu Meir stayed by his side.
One is a concubine's daughter who is not valued by her family, and the other is a prince with an uncertain future. The two comfort each other, but only they know how difficult their journey has been.
Unfortunately, when he ascended to the throne of the Nine-Five Supreme, he could not make her the Empress. This was his debt to Shu Mei'er, and it was also the shame of him being controlled by others as the Supreme.
Shu Meier choked up and said, "It was I who was bewitched. I saw that the Empress and Concubine Li were getting closer and closer, and I was afraid that they would unite and harm the Emperor, so I planned everything."
Murong Hong's heart moved.
The Empress and Concubine Li had been feuding openly and covertly for years, and the image of their mutual enmity had become deeply ingrained in his mind. But today, it seemed as if the Empress was helping Concubine Li clear her name. Could it be...
Suddenly, Shu Meier grabbed a piece of broken porcelain from the ground and held it across her slender neck. "Your Majesty, if Meier does something wrong, it will definitely cause criticism. Meier will not embarrass you."
Murong Hong was shocked, "Stop!"
Shu Meier smiled sadly, "Take care, Your Majesty."
After she finished speaking, she drew a line with her hand, and a shocking blood mark appeared on her fair neck.
"Mei'er!"
"Imperial Physician, call the Imperial Physician!"
-
The night is as dark as ink, and the silent night is no longer peaceful.
Hearing the commotion outside, Su Man stood up from behind the bed curtains and asked, "What happened?"
"To answer your Majesty, it was Concubine Shu. I heard she slit her throat."
"Dead?"
"The imperial physician treated him promptly and he is out of danger."
Su Man smiled and shook her head, "This Shu Mei'er is also a character."
Now that the truth has been revealed, with Murong Hong's vengeful nature, he will definitely seek revenge on Shu Meir.
Shu Meir simply decided to burn her bridges and let Murong Hong think that he was about to lose her. This loss and recovery would not only not affect her, but would make her even more favored.
Tsk, we've met our match.
Sure enough, for more than half a month, Murong Hong stayed at Shu Meir's place and was favored by the emperor.
However, after the incident involving Concubine Shu became known, it aroused the dissatisfaction of the military generals.
The Jiang family has a long line of military commanders. Concubine Li's father, General Jiang, was a cavalry general. Although old, he was still as skilled as ever. Furthermore, Concubine Li had five older brothers, all of whom were skilled fighters.
Concubine Li was a bold and straightforward woman, and her family was no exception. She was humiliated, while the culprit, Shu Meier, was let off lightly, which made the Jiang family extremely dissatisfied.
Military generals are not like civil officials, who have so many twists and turns in their heads. General Jiang and several military generals directly asked Murong Hong in the court whether he was biased.
Murong Hong was embarrassed and just said a few words to appease him before leaving the court.
[Murong Hong's reputation is damaged, his luck value is reduced by 10, and his current luck value is 90]
-
At that time, Su Man was flying kites with Concubine Li and several sisters.
When Su Man had nothing to do, she would organize these concubines who were bored and idle in the palace every day to go out and play. Every time, she would move jewelry from the warehouse for them as a prize to make them happy.
There was constant laughter on the grass.
Concubine An also brought her daughter, Princess Lingxiu, out. Since she took the princess in to raise her, she has grown fatter and taller. She is no longer as sarcastic as before, and always has a smile on her face.
Concubine Song was afraid that the kite would fall, so she ran in a hurry and accidentally tripped, falling flat on her face.
Concubine Li behind her almost got a stitch in her side from laughing, "Hahahaha, Concubine Song, hahahaha..."
I don’t know if it was because she laughed too wildly, but I lost my balance and stepped on my skirt, and sat down on the ground.
Concubine Song, who had just looked miserable, almost clapped her hands and cheered, "Haha, Sister Li, you, hahahaha..."
Concubine Li was so angry that she went up to Concubine Song and started to tickle her. "You are so treacherous. I will teach you a lesson today."
Concubine Li was indeed a daughter of a general. She attacked with both hands. Concubine Song was so tickled that her stomach ached from laughing. She begged for mercy with tears in her eyes, "Haha... Concubine Li, spare me... You are a fairy... Haha, fairies cannot be angry."
Su Man couldn't bear it and directly pulled Concubine Li up, "Okay, look at your makeup. It's all ruined."
Concubine Li was most concerned about her appearance, so she immediately took out the small mirror she always carried with her and asked, "Where, where is the stain?"
