Chapter 546: Rebirth of Concubine Shu (VIII)
"You come and hold the umbrella for the second prince." Lu Yanshi didn't say anything and directly called another little eunuch to hold the umbrella for Lu Yan.
Lu Yan looked at Lu Yanshi in disbelief.
My father really doesn't love him anymore.
He was bullied, but his father did not stand up for him.
Lu Yan clenched his fists and followed Lu Yanshi angrily, walking step by step to Changchun Palace.
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you!" When Xie Ruizhu finally saw Lu Yan, she cried again.
"You have resorted to such a self-torture scheme just to see me. Tell me, what do you want to say?" Lu Yanshi looked at Xie Ruizhu, who was drenched in the rain and crying, without a trace of sympathy in his eyes.
Xie Ruizhu felt a chill in her heart.
The emperor looked at her with such coldness.
It seems that there is really no hope for the Xie family...
But no matter what, she still had to plead for her father.
"Your Majesty, my father assisted you with all his heart and soul. I hope you will spare his life for all the hard work he has put in for Daxia."
"Like a slave?" Lu Yanshi sneered.
If the Xie family is really related to the White Lotus Sect, then Xie Falcon has secretly made a fortune under the banner of the White Lotus Sect. His being treated like a slave is fake, but he is actually enjoying the good life.
Xie Ruizhu didn't expect the emperor would only say these words. She was stunned for a moment.
Without time to think, Xie Ruizhu kowtowed repeatedly: "Your Majesty, please forgive my family for once, and please spare my father's life."
"I understand." Lu Yanshi looked at her calmly, then turned to look at Lu Yan beside him and gave the order.
"Take good care of the Second Prince. If he gets sick, you will be my only concern."
"Yes." The palace maids and eunuchs in Changchun Palace shuddered and quickly agreed.
Lu Yanshi turned around and left without mercy.
"Your Majesty." Xie Ruizhu never expected that the man who had doted on her in every way in the past would not even say a word of concern this time.
She used up her last bit of strength, called out the word "Your Majesty", and then fainted completely.
"Mother, mother, what's wrong with you?" Lu Yan was so scared that he rushed over and wanted to help her up.
"Quick, go get the doctor."
The Changchun Palace was in chaos again.
…
Two days later.
Lu Yanshi received a report from the secret guard and found out that Xie Falcon was the founder of the White Lotus Sect and that the White Lotus God worshipped by the White Lotus Sect was carved based on him.
"How brave you are!" Lu Yanshi was furious.
"Go and copy the Xie family for me."
As soon as his order came out, the Xie family's house was ransacked.
Looking at the Xie family's wealth, Lu Yanshi became so angry that his face turned black.
"Three days later, the whole family will be killed, leaving no one alive."
He gave the order without even waiting for the execution.
He could no longer tolerate the Xie family.
Since being caught in the rain that day, Xie Ruizhu has been running a fever and has been bedridden.
After sleeping for a whole night in a daze.
Xie Ruizhu opened her eyes.
"Where are my father and mother? Why haven't you come to see me even though I'm so sick?" she asked weakly.
Xuanlu and Xuancao already knew that the Xie family was raided today, and they cried so hard that their eyes were red and they dared not speak a word.
Xie Ruizhu glanced at the two of them, then glanced at the decorations inside the hall, and finally came to her senses from her daze.
Oh, she is no longer an unmarried girl.
She is now the most favored concubine in Daxia.
"How dare you! I asked you questions, why didn't you answer?" she shouted.
After scolding her, she realized that she was no longer a noble concubine, but a demoted imperial concubine.
She was so angry that she spat out blood again.
"My queen, please don't scare us." Xuanlu and Xuancao were frightened when they saw this scene.
Recently, the Empress has been vomiting blood more and more frequently. The imperial physician said that if it continues like this, even a deity would be unable to cure her.
Before they could invite the imperial physician, they received the emperor's decree to demote him.
Due to the involvement of the Xie family, Xie Ruizhu was demoted to a talented person.
Effective immediately, move out of Changchun Palace.
Xuanlu and Xuancao opened their eyes wide, unable to accept the blow.
Not to mention Xie Ruizhu, the person involved.
Her body twitched, her whole body quickly became hot, and a mouthful of blood got stuck in her throat.
Xuanlu and Xuancao were still immersed in the sorrow of their master becoming a talented woman, and did not notice the expression on Xie Ruizhu's face on the bed.
By the time they reacted, Xie Ruizhu's body was already cold.
"My queen, my queen!!!"
The two were so frightened that they fainted on the spot.
The news of Xie Ruizhu's death quickly spread throughout the harem.
When Xia Shuyi learned about this, he stood there in a daze.
In less than a month, Xie Ruizhu was transformed from a noble concubine into a talented woman, and then the Xie family fell from power and she lost her life.
She was somewhat happy and somewhat frightened.
She was happy that her enemy was dead, but she was terrified that the emperor could abandon her, even though she was so favored by him. What should she do?
She looked at her innocent daughter in the cradle and felt a little sour in her nose.
She softly sang the nursery rhymes her mother used to sing to lull her daughter to sleep.
She secretly reminded herself in her heart: The love of an emperor is the most ruthless. Don't think too much. Just take good care of your children and let them grow up.
…
The virtuous concubine Qu Zhiwei also received the news.
She breathed a sigh of relief.
Xie Ruizhu is dead, and the token of her allegiance to Shen Liuzheng is enough, right?
She ordered someone to go to Shouxi Palace, saying that she wanted to visit Concubine Shu.
But the people in Shouxi Palace still said the same thing: Concubine Shu is sick and cannot see anyone until she recovers.
Qu Zhiwei was very confused.
What on earth is Shen Liuzheng trying to hide?
But now all she can do is wait.
Wait for Shen Liuzheng to contact her actively.
She took a sip of tea and looked outside the palace.
I don't know how far the wild ghost who came back to life in her brother's body has progressed.
…
In Yu's study, the atmosphere was very silent.
The ministers who were called in to discuss the matter dared not say a word.
These days, the emperor has issued too many beheading orders, and they are afraid that they will be the next one.
Everyone was trembling with fear.
Half a month passed in the blink of an eye.
Finally there is good news from the border!
With the addition of that unknown general, the Shen family won a great victory in the battle against Beiyong and captured one more city.
"Good! Shu..." Lu Yanshi almost blurted out to praise Concubine Shu's majesty.
But he quickly changed his tune.
"The Shen family really deserves to be the most courageous generals in Daxia!"
The officials below looked at each other, trying to guess who the new general would be.
Is there any military officer named Shu in this capital?
Before they could guess it, the eunuch outside the door came to report.
Today is the Ninth Princess' full moon day. Would His Majesty like to go to Yuxiu Palace?
Lu Yanshi was stunned for a moment, then he realized that his youngest daughter was one month old.
"Go, why not?" He laughed.
There was a great victory at the border today, and his little princess just turned one month old.
What a blessed child.
After thinking for a while, he looked at Cao Dehai and said, "Isn't it time for Concubine Xia to raise her status?"
Cao Dehai lowered his eyebrows and replied, "The last time Concubine Xia was promoted was when the third prince was born."
"How old is the third child?" Lu Yanshi couldn't remember for a moment.
"Your Majesty, the third prince is six years old this year." Cao Dehai replied hurriedly.
"It's been so many years, it's time to promote her. Promote her to Zhaoyi." Lu Yanshi gave the decree, and then sent a stream of rewards to Yuxiu Palace.
When the concubines in the harem saw the endless rewards being sent to Yuxiu Palace, they immediately understood what they should do.
This little princess is a pampered one.
So they prepared gifts and ordered people to send them to Yuxiu Palace.
At the same time, Shen Liuzheng at the border also received news from the palace.
