Chapter 22 Four-Man Team
"Don't make trouble during this period."
Pei Yan sat on the sedan chair, lowered his eyebrows, and looked down at Jiang Shuyi: "Be obedient, and I will love you forever."
His gentle tone carried the intimidation that only belonged to an emperor, and Jiang Shuyi's shoulders trembled.
Sure enough, he came to warn her not to bully Wen Yao.
The worst guess came true, but Jiang Shuyi couldn't cry anymore. The tears that had been pent up for a long time were blown back by the cold wind on the long street. She turned her face away and said in a tone that seemed to be angry and coquettish: "Your Majesty, don't worry. I won't take the initiative to provoke Concubine Wen. Even if she bullies me, I will bear it."
Pei Yan looked at her slightly droopy face and her sad eyes looking elsewhere, and he knew that she probably didn't listen to what he said.
But if I say a few more words to her, I'm afraid she will cry again.
Whatever, it's not a big deal after all, it just might cause him some trouble.
"Since you entered the East Palace, when have I ever let you suffer any injustice?"
Pei Yan rubbed his brow helplessly and sighed: "Okay, I was talking too much, just pretend you didn't hear it. No matter how it was in the past or how it will be in the future, I will still love you."
Jiang Shuyi was already reciting palace resentment poems in her heart, and when she suddenly heard Pei Yan say this, she was a little stunned for a moment.
Is this a case of getting bored with the old and loving the new?
She was in mixed emotions and really wanted Pei Yan to come down and hug her, saying that he loved her the most and always loved her. However, during this time of war, he was busy with government affairs, so after coaxing her with these words, he ordered the sedan chair to be taken back to the Qianqing Palace.
Jiang Shuyi stood there for a long time until a voice came from behind her: "Greetings to Concubine Jiang."
She turned around and saw Wen Yao, who was bowing with her head lowered and kneeling.
The Queen must have ended her morning meeting, and the concubines were now coming out of Kunning Palace one after another.
Concubine Wu glanced over here and left. Concubine Xue was talking to Jiang Wanqing, both of them with smiles on their faces. When Jiang Wanqing saw Jiang Shuyi, her smile froze and she pursed her lips, as if she wanted to come over. In the end, she turned her face away, looking angry.
Jiang Shuyi felt disgusted and would rather look back at Wen Yao, frowning and asking, "Why is Concubine Wen not going back to the palace and hanging around in front of me?"
Wen Yao stood up, raised her eyes and looked at Jiang Shuyi, and said calmly: "I want to ask you why you stared at me just now. Is it because I received your favor last night that you feel uncomfortable?"
Jiang Shuyi felt even more disgusted.
She remembered that Pei Yan had told her not to feel wronged, so she responded bluntly: "You're staring at me like a thief, who else should I stare at if not you?"
Wen Yao chuckled: "Really? I don't remember, but Concubine Jiang admitted that she glared at me, right?"
Jiang Shuyi was so angry that her head hurt. She couldn't help but said, "What if I glare at you? I am a concubine, and you are just a little noble. Even if I hit you, you have to bear it!"
Wen Yao nodded and bowed: "I understand. I'll take my leave." Then she left.
Jiang Shuyi not only had a headache, but also felt chest tightness. She took a deep breath and began to look around.
Where is Miao Wangshu? She couldn't bear it any longer and wanted to kill Wen Yao right now!
Miao Wangshu and Feng Yiyue came out together.
When Feng Yiyue saw Jiang Shuyi, her eyes immediately lit up and she left Miao Wangshu and walked towards her quickly.
"Hello, Madam Concubine Jiang!"
Feng Yiyue bowed with a smile, pulled her sleeve and asked expectantly, "Are you waiting for me, Madam?"
Jiang Shuyi was choked for a moment.
She looked down at her sleeves, and suddenly she felt as if she was someone who had been in a dark room for a long time and suddenly saw the light of day. She felt inexplicably dazed.
In the past few days since her rebirth, she only has Pei Yan in her heart and eyes. Although she cares about Feng Yiyue, it is only to make up for the regrets of her previous life. After all, Feng Yiyue has been dead for ten years in her memory, and the one who is closest to her and sleeps with her every day is Pei Yan.
Looking into Feng Yiyue's eyes, Jiang Shuyi finally couldn't lie to her. She turned away and said softly, "...I have something to discuss with Miao Zhaoyi."
The light in Feng Yiyue's eyes suddenly dimmed.
She withdrew her hand helplessly, and then quickly smiled: "Oh, I was overthinking it. If I can't help, I will return to the palace first."
Miao Wangshu glanced at Feng Yiyue and said to Jiang Shuyi in a low voice, "This place is not peaceful. Your Majesty, why don't you go back to Chuxiu Palace with me and talk?"
Jiang Shuyi nodded, took Feng Yiyue's hand, and told Yuzhu, "Call Concubine Rou to Chuxiu Palace as well."
Roupin had left early just now, and Yuzhu went to chase after her.
Chuxiu Palace.
"I want to get rid of Concubine Wen. Do you have any ideas?"
Miao Wangshu was fine, as he had experienced this kind of questioning from the Empress once before. Concubine Rou was so scared that she spit out her tea.
She coughed, took the handkerchief handed to her by Miao Zhaoyi, and said in disbelief: "My queen, what do you mean by getting rid of her? Are you going to kill Wen Yao? We, we have never done such a thing. Are we going to touch the niece of the Queen Mother for the first time?"
Jiang Shuyi recalled and it seemed to be true that before Jiang Wanqing entered the palace, her methods were limited to joining forces with these three people to frame other concubines.
For example, when Feng Yiyue fell, she said it was Concubine Xue who pushed her, and Miao Zhaoyi saw it; or when Concubine Rou "slipped" and fell into the lotus pond, she insisted that Concubine Wu had someone move the bricks by the pond; and then there was Jiang Shuyi who went directly to Pei Yan crying, making up stories that this person and that person had bullied her, and begged him to make the decision...
Thinking about it now, I feel so ashamed, as if I am sick.
Fortunately, Jiang Wanqing didn't know these things. Otherwise, if she had told them when she reported herself in her previous life, Jiang Shuyi would have lost face ten miles away and would have been transformed from a cruel and ruthless concubine to a stupid concubine with a sick mind.
Feng Yiyue was very excited: "Madam, tell me, what should we do? I am not afraid. Let alone the niece of the Queen Mother, I dare to do it even to the Queen Mother!"
Concubine Rou laughed, but Concubine Miao was horrified. She looked at her coldly and scolded her, "What nonsense are you talking about? Idiot! Either shut up or get out!"
These words were too harsh. Feng Yiyue's eyes suddenly turned red and she looked at her blankly.
The atmosphere was a little awkward. Finally, Jiang Shuyi spoke up and called Feng Yiyue to her side. She sat on the chaise longue and Feng Yiyue sat next to her, tears in her eyes, as if she was about to cry.
Jiang Shuyi couldn't help but laugh.
Why is it that Feng Yiyue acts like herself in front of Pei Yan in front of Miao Wangshu, crying at the slightest provocation?
She comforted him, "Okay, I know you are loyal, but you are not very smart. Just listen to me."
Feng Yiyue hugged her arm aggrievedly and said "hmm", no longer looking at Miao Wangshu.
Miao Wangshu didn't care either, and just said to Jiang Shuyi: "Madam, there is really no need for you to get rid of Wen Yao."
"oh?"
Jiang Shuyi's heart moved slightly, and she looked up at her, trying to see if she was also reborn. So she knew that Wen Yao would die on her own, so she asked, "Why?"
"Because Wen Yao has a father who is more powerful than his master."
Miao Wangshu said calmly, lowering his voice slightly: "Since ancient times, it has been the time to retire after achieving success. The most taboo thing for a minister is to let the monarch give him nothing to give him."
"There is nothing to give, so the only thing to give is death."
