The eunuch left after announcing the decree. Song Chiyou came to Xu Qiudong's side, looked at her and asked, "Are you happy?"
Xu Qiudong murmured "hmm" softly, and continued copying the Buddhist scriptures without stopping his hands.
Song Chiyou liked her quiet nature very much. He sat beside her and watched her copying Buddhist scriptures quietly. After a long while, he went back to continue reviewing memorials.
After returning, Song Chiyou specifically instructed the eunuch to deliver the book he had selected to Xu Qiudong.
Xu Qiudong flipped through the book casually a few times and threw it to the ground with a cold look.
Xu Qiudong's action frightened the palace maids in the palace, and they all knelt on the ground.
"My Lady."
Who would dare to throw away the emperor's reward?
You are so brave.
However, when they thought that Xu Qiudong was a princess of the previous dynasty, they felt relieved.
Yes, only this princess of the previous dynasty was so courageous. After all, she grew up in the love and care of everyone.
Xu Qiudong is now locked up in the Yangxin Palace by Song Chiyou like a canary. She is not even allowed to go out. The Yangxin Palace has become a cage that traps her.
Xu Qiudong copied Buddhist scriptures every day to suppress her temper, but today Song Chiyou used a book to test her.
The words written by Xu Qiudong became more and more messy, but after a while, they gradually became more majestic.
…
Song Chiyou's consistent favor year after year gradually caused complaints from the previous dynasty.
Everyone says that Xu Qiudong is a witch who brings disaster to the country and the people.
In fact, it was only those people who followed Song Chiyou in the rebellion who were afraid.
They were afraid that if they allowed Xu Qiudong to continue to be so favored, she would whisper in Song Chiyou's ear, and what if Song Chiyou was pleased and killed them according to her will?
After all, they were the generals who attacked the palace, the ones who killed her father, the emperor, and her mother, and the ones who destroyed her family.
They just couldn't believe that with such a huge blood feud, how could she not seek revenge? How could she forget?
They never believed that Xu Qiudong could submit to Song Chiyou like this, but Song Chiyou's ruthlessness at the time made it impossible for them to refute him, so they could only follow his wishes and make her a concubine.
Coincidentally, at this time, an urgent report came that the border had fallen.
At the morning court, when Song Chiyou was arranging the candidates for generals, no one volunteered, and they even united to force Song Chiyou.
"Your Majesty, if the evil concubine is not removed, I'm afraid the soldiers will be disheartened."
"Your Majesty, I beg you to eliminate the evil concubine to boost the morale of the army!"
"I second this motion!"
“…”
Song Chiyou has a bad temper. The more they force him to do something, the more he refuses to do it.
"Are you forcing me?"
"I dare not."
They may not dare to say it, but they are really forcing it in their actions.
"Okay, okay."
Song Chiyou waved his sleeves and was about to kill the person who said this when he saw all the ministers in the hall kneeling on the ground.
"Your Majesty, as long as the evil concubine is not eliminated, the world will never be at peace."
In fact, they wanted to bring up Xu Qiudong's identity as a princess of the previous dynasty to put pressure on her, but they were also afraid of angering Song Chiyou, as Song Chiyou had a very strange temper.
Song Chiyou put his hands on his hips and looked angrily at the ministers who were kneeling together. He was so angry that he laughed.
"How dare you force me."
Song Chiyou looked at the leading ministers with a sinister look. If looks could kill, they would have died countless times.
Song Chiyou knew very well what those ministers were thinking, which was why he was so angry.
