Chapter 28: Canary Captured by the Enemy Emperor 15
All the concubines and palace maids present, except the Queen Mother, quickly performed the salute.
"Stand up." Jun Yuanming said this to Lin Muqing. She felt that she was being treated specially. She pursed her lips and looked at him pitifully.
I hope you won’t protect the imperial concubine just for the sake of the Left Prime Minister.
The system was furious when it saw so many people besieging the host. [Host, our mission is to give birth to and raise cubs, not to suffer grievances. I really want to feed them bullet holes! Just run away after getting the male protagonist. The subsidy group has everything and can support you! ]
Lin Muqing: "Wait until I have dealt with them first, so they won't be wronged."
The noble concubine quickly hid behind the queen mother.
Jun Yuanming looked at the Queen Mother first, and said in a low voice, "Mother, have you forgotten what I said?"
He never told anyone about the injuries he suffered as a hostage, but the Queen Mother always wanted him to have a child, so she could only say it in a euphemistic way.
The Queen Mother knew what Yuan'er meant, that she should not care about the gossip in the harem, but she was anxious. Perhaps this was how she had lost the favor of the late emperor.
"Your Majesty's face is so swollen? Could it be that you beat yourself? I don't want you to be deceived by Lin Shuyi."
The Queen Mother pulled the Concubine in front of her again and tried to lift her veil.
The imperial concubine was so frightened that she quickly covered her hands. What if the emperor saw it and never went to her place again?
Jun Yuanming's stern gaze made the imperial concubine shrink her neck, "Your Majesty, please make the decision for me!"
There was a cold and mocking look in Jun Yuanming's eyes, as if he was extremely disgusted.
"My Lady, if Qing'er hadn't grabbed your feet in time, you wouldn't be crying here now, but your father would be crying in front of your coffin."
Jun Yuanming stood with his hands behind his back, his strong and tall figure blocking Lin Muqing. He gestured to the expressionless guard behind him to speak, and said sideways: "You come and tell the Queen Mother what happened."
The secret guard knelt on one knee, put his hands together in front of his forehead, bowed his head and said: "Your Majesty, I have been protecting Lin Shuyi in secret. It was the Imperial Concubine who started it first and wanted to push Lin Shuyi off the bridge.
But because the Concubine lost her strength, she fell down first, and was caught by Lin Shuyi's leg in time. Later, I saw that the situation was tense, so I took action to bring the Concubine back to the bridge. Everything I said was true. "
The Queen Mother's expression changed from a slight anger at the beginning to anger at being played with. She turned her head coldly to look at the Imperial Concubine who was hiding and didn't want to talk, "Is it easy to fool you, Imperial Concubine?"
"Empress Dowager, Empress Dowager...I am not..." The noble concubine was speechless. His Majesty actually sent people to protect Lin Muching!
The Queen Mother was in a complicated mood. Yuan'er actually sent someone to protect her, which was something no other concubine had ever done.
When he looked at Lin Muqing again, his eyes changed and he sighed, "Lin Shuyi, I didn't find out what happened and wronged you... It's my fault."
After watching everything, Lin Muqing felt nothing but admiration and pleasure for the tall man in front of her. As for the Queen Mother, she didn't want to go too far, otherwise it would affect her reputation.
However, she did not expect that the Queen Mother would admit her mistakes without any resentment.
She pretended to be terrified and lowered her head. "Your Majesty, you are too kind. You have also been deceived. It's better to clarify the matter."
The Queen Mother looked at Jun Yuanming and sighed deeply.
"I really shouldn't care." She left this sentence, as if she had accepted her fate. She accepted her fate from Yuan'er's hurried footsteps. She must like him, just like she liked the late emperor. She turned around, took the nanny's hand, and left slowly, her back bent a little, her shadow lonely.
The imperial concubine panicked and wanted to admit her mistake, but how could she do that in front of Lin Muqing!
"Your Majesty, I was just confused for a moment. Nanny told me to take the initiative and let the Queen Mother punish Lin Shuyi first, and then let my father take action afterwards. I was bewildered by all this, not really..."
Mammy was immediately chilled.
Jun Yuanming interrupted her without even looking at her, "The Left Prime Minister is waiting for the Imperial Concubine in Yu Garden. The Imperial Concubine's play is left for your father to enjoy."
The imperial concubine's face froze, but she still hadn't hidden the grievance beneath her veil. His Majesty was so cruel that he made her embarrass herself in front of Lin Muching once again!
Why is father waiting for her? Isn't he standing on her side to hold His Majesty back?
