Chapter 4 The "Virtuous" Empress
Phoenix Palace.
Luo Xi looked at the jade pendant in her hand, then at Xuan Che opposite her, and asked in confusion, "Your Majesty, isn't this your personal jade pendant?"
Why did he give her the jade pendant he wore close to his body?
Xuan Che noticed the doubt in her eyes, but his expression remained unchanged. "I think it suits you."
Upon hearing this, Luo Xi smiled and hung the jade pendant on her waist. Then, she said playfully, "Then I will accept it. If Your Majesty regrets it, you are not allowed to take it back."
She added with a smile, "Even if Your Majesty wants to go back, I will not allow it."
Upon hearing this, a smile flashed in Xuan Che's eyes. He then walked over and patted her head. "Don't worry, my word is law."
"What I have given you, is yours."
Luo Xi nodded: "Yes, Your Majesty, I understand."
She looked up at Xuan Che, "Well, now that it belongs to me, will Your Majesty be angry if I give it away?"
Xuan Che bent down and pinched her waist. "You dare?"
Luo Xi said, feeling wronged, "But didn't His Majesty say that once this jade pendant is given to me, it belongs to me?"
Xuan Che:
He said domineeringly, "Anyway, it's no good. You have to keep it, understand?"
Luo Xi stood up, hugged Xuan Che's neck, kissed his cheek, and smiled, "Since Your Majesty has said so, I naturally dare not."
Xuan Che looked at her sly smile and her restless little hand resting on his chest, and gritted his teeth, "Don't cry later."
After saying that, he grabbed her waist and led her into the bathroom...
The next day.
Luo Xi looked at the food, her eyes slightly cold.
"Your Majesty, should we investigate?"
"No need, I know who did it."
"Zhuzhu, go to the flower room and pick out a few potted plants to send to the Empress Dowager."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Two weeks later,
Luo Yan has gone mad!!!
Everyone thought she went insane because she lost her child.
Only Luo Xi knew that Luo Yan had only been given a tiny bit of hallucinogenic drug.
She had noticed Luo Yan's habit of covering her lips with a handkerchief long ago. That's why she applied the medicine to Luo Yan's hand.
As long as she covers her lips, she will inevitably inhale some of the scent; given her weak constitution, the effect will be doubled.
Moreover, the medicine disappeared with just water, and she couldn't detect it. The dosage was too small for the imperial physicians to detect.
Cining Palace.
"Crazy?"
"How could he be crazy?"
"How could a perfectly healthy person suddenly go insane?"
Luo Yan doesn't seem like someone who likes children that much!
After much deliberation, the Empress Dowager decided to visit the Jade Brocade Palace.
As soon as the Empress Dowager entered,
Luo Yan caught a faint scent of fragrance emanating from the Empress Dowager, and her eyes instantly turned red.
Before anyone else could react, she grabbed a vase from the side, her expression ferocious, and charged at the Empress Dowager, smashing it violently over the Empress Dowager's head. Shards of the vase littered the ground, blood streamed down the Empress Dowager's face, and then the Empress Dowager collapsed to the ground…
However, Luo Yan had no intention of stopping. The vase shattered, and she grabbed other things to smash...
"ah!"
"Go quickly and save the Empress Dowager."
"Consort Li has gone mad; she wants to kill the Empress Dowager."
The eunuchs and palace maids realized what was happening and rushed forward to stop Luo Yan.
By the time they subdued Luo Yan, the Empress Dowager was already dead...
Luo Xi and Xuan Che rushed over immediately upon hearing the news.
Luo Xi was also startled when she saw the Empress Dowager's miserable state.
She never expected the effect to be so amazing!
However, she was very satisfied with the result.
As for Luo Yan?
Luo Xi looked at Luo Yan, who was being held down on the ground by two eunuchs. She couldn't die too easily either.
Just then, a palace maid rushed in, "Your Majesty, Consort Zhao has miscarried."
"What!"
Xuan Che didn't have time to deal with Luo Yan, so he took Luo Xi to Yuxiu Palace.
Imperial Physician: "Your Majesty, Consort Zhao has lost too much blood and is gone."
Xuan Che:! ! !
What's the reason?
"Her Majesty has taken a large amount of abortifacient."
"check."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
An hour later, all the evidence pointed to Consort Li. She was the one who ordered someone to put an abortifacient in Consort Zhao's water.
Xuan Che immediately looked at Luo Xi.
"Your Majesty, although Luo Yan is your sister, she did kill the Empress Dowager, Consort Zhao, and the imperial heir."
Luo Xi closed her eyes briefly. "Your Majesty, I know."
"Luo Yan deserved her punishment."
Finally, Xuanche ordered that Luoyan be demoted to a commoner and executed by slow slicing..........
As for the Prime Minister's residence?
A sudden fire burned everyone in the mansion to death.
Six months later,
Song Jing is back.
He brought a woman back with him; she was a female doctor named Ye Qian.
Song Jing is the person Luo Xi used to like.
That year, after Luo Xi entered the palace, he went to the battlefield.
night.
Phoenix Palace.
"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"
Luo Xi pushed Xuan Che, who was pressing her against the dressing table.
Upon hearing this, Xuan Che grabbed her waist and immediately turned her around so that her back was to him.
Luo Xi was forced to support herself on the dressing table. Xuan Che kissed her sensitive earlobe, and Luo Xi trembled. He breathed heavily, one hand cupping her breasts, and asked in a deep voice, "Xi'er, Song Jing is back. Are you feeling any turmoil?"
Luo Xi trembled, "No...no."
Indeed, no, she felt that she didn't like him.
Maybe my previous feelings for him were just an illusion.
He pinched her waist. "Really?"
"Really...really."
Xuan Che kissed her cheek: "Okay, I believe you. Xi'er, you must not let me lose."
"Okay... I understand."
Upon hearing this, Xuan Che covered her with his arms. After a while, the dressing table made a loud noise, which lasted for quite some time...
The following day, at the palace banquet.
Luo Xi has no feelings for Song Jing.
So when she saw him sitting with Ye Qian, she didn't feel anything special.
Song Jing stared at Luo Xi for a few moments, then lowered his head and drank a few glasses of wine.
Luo Xi: !!!
Luo Xi couldn't help but notice Song Jing's gaze.
At the palace banquet, with so many people present, why was he looking at her like that?
She frowned. Who was he trying to impress with this act? Was he trying to cause trouble?
What's more, she has a jealous boyfriend by her side.
Xuan Che kept glancing at Luo Xi and Song Jing, seemingly unintentionally.
Therefore, he naturally noticed the way Song Jing looked at Luo Xi.
He reached out and pinched Luo Xi's waist, saying softly, "Empress, you must remember, you belong to me."
"The heart must not be moved."
Luo Xi:
Her heart remained unmoved. Never had it.
Moreover, didn't he know that her waist was a sensitive area?
She couldn't resist and reached out to pinch his waist.
"hiss!"
Xuan Che felt wronged, "Empress, how cruel you are!"
Luo Xi glared at him, reminding him to tone it down.
Next comes the reward and recognition ceremony.
Xuan Che looked at Ye Qian standing beside Song Jing and asked, "Miss Ye, your medical skills are quite good. You saved many people on the battlefield. What reward would you like?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Qian stepped forward and walked to the center of the hall. "Your Majesty, this commoner wishes to marry General Song."
Xuan Che:! ! !
This is great!
He was just about to issue an imperial decree to grant the marriage.
At this moment, Ye Qian said again, "General Song misjudged people in the past and suffered heartbreak. I feel sorry for him, so I want to stay by his side for the rest of my life and accompany him."
Xuan Che:
Luo Xi: !!!
"What? Miss Ye, are you speaking up for him?"
"I do not have one."
"No?"
She smiled, but upon closer inspection, the smile didn't reach her eyes.
Everyone knows that Luo Xi used to like Song Jing, but later she entered the palace while he went to the battlefield.
Does Victoria Song think that saving a few people on the battlefield is some kind of get-out-of-jail-free card? Is there no way to get away with it?
Luo Xi said casually, "Take him away and give him 100 lashes. If he survives, that's your luck."
Ye Qian: !!!
100 lashes? How could she possibly still be alive?
The Empress clearly wants her dead!
Ye Qian looked at Xuan Che beside Luo Xi. She hoped that the Emperor would speak up and stop the Empress.
Song Jing stepped forward and knelt down abruptly in the main hall, pleading, "Your Majesty, please, for the sake of my utmost service to the Song Kingdom..."
Luo Xi glanced at him and said indifferently, "What? General Song is feeling sorry for me?"
"In that case, why don't you go and keep her company?"
Song Jing: !!!
Luo Xi turned to look at Xuan Che, "Your Majesty?"
Xuan Che nodded and looked at Song Jing, "Then General Song, please come along."
Several ministers stood up to speak in Song Jing's defense.
However, they were all stopped by Xuan Che's unwavering gaze.
They sighed. General Song and his ilk were completely unaware of the distinction between ruler and subject!
Finally, Song Jing and Ye Qian couldn't withstand 100 lashes and died...
