Chapter 44 An Incident in the Cold Palace
Yu study.
Chu Qinshu had just finished lunch with Emperor Yongping.
Of course it was Emperor Yongping who was eating. She was staring at him and drooling.
Only when the last drop of soup disappeared from the bowl did she look away dejectedly and rub the saliva on her chin onto Emperor Yongping's clothes.
Well, she did it on purpose.
Not only did they not give her meat, they didn't even let her eat vegetables.
Even a mouthful of porridge or soup will do.
She will definitely stop drooling after eating it.
So, whoever makes her drool, she will rub her saliva on him.
After rubbing against her, she fell asleep in seconds.
Let’s see who can do anything to her?
Recently, every time she fell asleep at noon, she would go into the space to look at the two green branches.
She will be one month old in a few days, and I don’t know if she will be able to eat what she wants when she is one month old.
After telling the green branches to bear fruit quickly, she went to the study to watch a movie with Little Gourd to relieve her hunger.
"Little Hulu, why are you watching these videos that are not suitable for children again?"
Chu Qinshu has spoken to Little Gourd more and more in the space, and has increasingly acquired the aura of a little master.
"Master, this is not inappropriate for children. This is a drama of palace fighting."
Little Gourd was watching with great interest. He answered questions while his eyes never left the picture on the wall.
"Palace fighting? Who is fighting in the palace?"
Chu Qinshu asked as she climbed onto the recliner.
"I don't know who was fighting in the palace, but it was definitely happening in the palace."
Xiaohulu always randomly clicks on people's names and starts reading.
Anyway, it likes to watch other people's plays.
"Hey, today is the tenth day of the tenth month, right?"
Chu Qinshu had just laid down on the recliner when she remembered that the tenth day of every month was the day when Prince Shou went to the palace to visit Concubine Jing.
Is this his play?
That's not right. Didn't he already promise Chu Chengyi and Emperor Yongping that he would not enter the palace this winter?
Moreover, Chu Qinshu had not seen him in the palace since he entered the palace a few days ago to take the water awarded by Emperor Yongping.
Emperor Yongping also ordered people to deliver the water bag to Prince Shou's palace every day.
It would be inappropriate for him to enter the palace again.
"Yes, that's right, Master. It's the tenth day of the tenth month. In six days you will be one month old."
Xiao Hulu's eyes still didn't leave the video.
"Prince Shou entered the palace today?"
Chu Qinshu is still worried about Shou Wang.
As for her full moon, she didn't care at all.
Anyway, teeth don’t grow on a full moon day, and a grand banquet will be held in the palace on the full moon day.
All the civil and military officials can take this opportunity to have a feast, but what about her?
In addition to drooling more, they also have to be carried in front of people to act cute and forced to do business.
Alas, thinking too much brings tears...
"Master, this... Little Gourd didn't see the King of Longevity today. Why don't you see it now?"
Little Gourd no longer has time to watch the video.
He picked up the book at hand and found the name of Prince Shou. With a tap of his hand, the picture on the wall switched to Prince Shou's Palace.
Shou Wang is making tea.
He also made tea and played chess with himself at the same time.
It goes without saying that the water used to make tea was the water that Emperor Yongping gave him as a reward.
"Master, Prince Shou is in his own palace, his face is rosy and he seems to be in a very happy mood."
When Little Gourd saw the picture, he felt relieved.
It wasn't in vain that it watched the videos these days.
Shou Wang is one of the cannon fodders in this world.
Seeing how worried the young master was about Shou Wang, it thought that this cannon fodder had already turned to ashes.
Fortunately, the cannon fodder is still alive and will not affect the mission progress of it and its master.
"Oh, then let's continue watching the palace fight."
Chu Qinshu confirmed that Prince Shou was fine, so it didn't matter whose show it was.
Life is like a play, whose play is not a play?
Who knew that the next moment, she saw Emperor Yongping in the video.
He was still holding himself asleep in his arms.
Chu Qinshu suddenly had a strange feeling of being there and yet being apart of it.
In the video, a group of people were kneeling and trembling in front of Emperor Yongping.
Not far away, there was a man in brocade clothes lying motionless on the ground like a dead dog.
"What happened?"
Emperor Yongping had a stern look on his face and his tone was unusually cold.
"In reply to the emperor, this person... this person has been sent to the cold palace from nowhere, and is with the abandoned concubine... with the abandoned concubine..."
The person who answered was a man who looked like a guard.
He spoke hesitantly, and it was unclear whether he was afraid to speak or couldn't express himself clearly.
"Are you a maid serving in this palace? Then you can tell the story."
Emperor Yongping glanced at the crowd and then set his sights on a little palace maid in old clothes.
"To reply...to the emperor, I saw...saw that man crawling in through the dog hole. As soon as he came in, he grabbed the queen...and flirted with her...gently...gently."
After the little palace maid finished speaking, she lay on the ground and dared not say a word.
The woman kneeling beside her looked at her in astonishment after hearing what she said.
It was obvious that this person was her master, the "empress" she mentioned, the abandoned concubine who lived in this palace.
"Your Majesty, I...I didn't, I wasn't molested, I just had my clothes messed up by that bitch, she wanted to knock me unconscious and drag me to that man, I resisted, and she tore me like this."
No one knew what position this deposed concubine held before, but it was clear that she was not smart enough.
Only after such a big thing happened did he realize that he was plotted against by his own palace maids.
It is undoubtedly too late to cry out for injustice now.
Even if the emperor's concubines were banished to the cold palace, they were not allowed to appear in front of men without proper clothing.
Now there are not only the imperial guards here, but also guards guarding the cold palace.
The culprit not far away was undoubtedly a foreigner just by looking at his clothes.
"Someone, turn this man over for me."
Emperor Yongping didn't even look at the deposed concubine. He just looked at the man who was lying on the ground not far away. He was dressed in brocade but was as thin as a bamboo pole.
Several guards rushed forward and quickly turned the man over.
Hey, my pants have dropped to my knees.
Fortunately, she had a long gown covering her body above the knees, otherwise with this figure, I’m afraid it would be... I’m afraid it would be an eyesore.
"Your Majesty, this man looks like the Crown Prince of Cheng'en."
A member of the imperial guard recognized the man and, not daring to conceal it, reported the truth to Emperor Yongping.
"Wake him up for me."
Emperor Yongping was almost furious when he saw this man's face.
The Zhang family of Marquis Cheng'en is the maiden family of the Queen Mother and Concubine Xian, and also his maternal family.
The current Marquis Cheng'en is Concubine Xian's younger brother and his cousin.
And the man in front of him, who had the guts to enter the cold palace and flirt with his deposed concubine, was his cousin's eldest son.
"Blah~"
The guards were always efficient and quickly fetched a bucket of well water and poured it over the man's head and face.
"Ah~ Who is it? Who dares to offend me? Where is my beauty? Where is my beauty? Come over and serve me."
As soon as Zhang Yongmou, the son of Marquis Cheng'en, opened his mouth, he spoke in his usual dandy tone.
His reputation of living a life of debauchery had long spread throughout the capital. When Emperor Yongping saw him like this, he became even more angry.
"Drag him away for trial, and the deposed concubine..."
"Your Majesty, I am innocent. I was staying peacefully in the cold palace. I never thought that a pervert would dare to break in here. It must have been that slave girl who brought me here."
The deposed concubine was betrayed by her own maid, and she was so frightened that her mind went blank.
As soon as he heard what Emperor Yongping meant, he knew that he would be dragged away for trial, and he quickly protested his innocence.
"Drag the ex-con and her maid away together and interrogate them separately."
Emperor Yongping couldn't even remember the name of this deposed concubine, and it was impossible for him to let her go just because she cried out for justice.
"Get up and go back to the study."
After Emperor Yongping gave his orders, he carried Chu Qinshu out of the cold palace and sat on the dragon chariot.
He would feel sick if he stayed in this place for more than a quarter of an hour.
