This is a warning to her about decentralization.
Empress Duan felt bitter and miserable, as if she had eaten bitter herbs.
I originally thought that if no imperial decree was issued after a night, it would mean that Emperor Xuanwu had completely disliked Sheng Xiyan.
But something unexpected happened to her.
Your Majesty, do you like her that much? It is obvious that I am the one who loves you the most.
She is entangled with her ex-husband. You are the emperor, isn't this shame enough for you to abandon her?
Despite her complicated emotions, she had to remain calm, fulfill her duties as a queen, and not lose her dignity.
"Eunuch Fu, I understand the Emperor's will."
Defei and Shufei both laughed and said:
"I also know this. I will definitely live up to the emperor's kindness. Please ask Eunuch Fu to convey this to the emperor."
"Okay, I'll take my leave."
After Eunuch Fu left, the palace became quiet and the concubines had different expressions.
Defei Sifu, the emperor's will to assist in the management of the six palaces, this happened suddenly, it must be due to the punishment of Chenfei last night, which means Emperor Xuanwu is dissatisfied with the empress.
She was able to raise the Second Prince Yuqing entirely due to the grace of the Emperor. If she could not share the burden of worrying for the Emperor, she would not be able to keep this preferential treatment.
Concubine Shu also quickly analyzed the emperor's thoughts and naturally guessed the reason.
It's rare that the emperor trusts me so much instead of Concubine Liang and Concubine Jia. I must share the emperor's worries.
Sure enough, A Yan has returned, and my good luck has returned too!
Empress Duan smiled and said, "Shufei, Defei, from now on, you will work with me to handle the affairs of the six palaces, and I will be able to relax a lot."
Defei and Shufei said in unison: "Your Majesty, do you think it's appropriate to let Chenfei go back?"
Queen Duan looked annoyed. You are too direct. Do you still give face to me, the queen?
She took the teacup and sipped it slowly.
De Fei smiled and said:
"Empress, the Concubine Chen made a mistake, you should punish her.
But after a night of punishment, she realized her mistake, so please be magnanimous and let her go, giving her a chance to reform."
Concubine Shu echoed: "Yes, it's better to forgive others when you can. The Empress has always been virtuous and generous. There is no need to bother with Concubine Chen."
The wind direction changed too quickly, and Concubine Jia was still stubborn and couldn't change it. She said angrily:
"Why did you let her go? Sister Queen, you should punish her and let her know how powerful you are!"
Concubine Dun fanned the flames and said, "That's right!"
After a long while, Empress Duan put down her teacup and spoke with dignity:
"Since Consort Shu and Consort De have pleaded for Consort Chen, I will spare her. Qingdai, go to Fanzong Tower and let Consort Chen go back."
"Yes, my lady."
In Fanzong Tower, the master and his servants were copying scriptures.
"My Lady, there are only ten more to go. Please take a rest and I will do it."
Sheng Xiyan's face turned pale as she smiled and said, "Our Meixiang is not only good at making dim sum, but unexpectedly, she also writes well."
Suddenly, Xiao Zhuozi outside the palace shouted, "Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"
Qingdai came in immediately afterwards, but Sheng Xiyan ignored her and continued writing.
"Empress Chen, the Empress has forgiven you. Her Majesty hopes that you will pay respects to the entire palace on time in the future and set a good example for the other concubines."
Sheng Xiyan said, "Copying the sutras calms my mind, and I must finish this one."
Qingdai shook her head and left the Fanzong Building.
Huaxia and Meixiang picked up the papers on the floor and stuffed them into the hands of Xiao Zhuozi.
Hua Xia bent down and said, "My Lady, I will carry you out."
Sheng Xiyan's legs were painful, numb and weak, Meixiang supported her.
"No, just walk outside and take the honor guard."
Hua Xia didn't give any explanation and forcibly carried Sheng Xiyan on her back.
As soon as she turned her back, Sheng Xiyan burst into tears and leaned on her back, sobbing.
"Hua Xia, you're not my man, why are you carrying me?"
"It's not like only men can carry you on their backs. Didn't I often carry you on my back when you were little? Have you forgotten?"
She is half a head taller than Sheng Xiyan and has always taken care of her like a little sister.
"But your carrying is not comfortable at all. I feel like I'm going to fall."
"Hahaha....."
She really fell down, but fortunately she had already reached the door, and several people dragged Sheng Xiyan onto the ceremonial guard.
Xiao Zhuozi shouted:
"rise!
Your Majesty, please go back first. I will go to the Imperial Hospital and ask Judge Wu to come and see you."
Sheng Xiyan said, "You don't need him to come. You need a box of Sanhuang ointment. It's the best for reducing redness and relieving pain."
"I know!"
Xiao Zhuozi, whoosh, ran away.
After returning to treat the leg injury, the master and his two servants fell into a deep sleep to catch up on their sleep.
Until dark, Sheng Xiyan felt itchy in her knees while lying on the golden nanmu bed.
When she opened her eyes, she saw Jiang Jiang rubbing her legs with his little hands.
"Baby, you're back? Come and let your mother hug you."
Jiang Jiang lay in her arms and didn't speak for a long time.
"Baby, are your uncle and grandmother all okay?"
"Everything is fine. I asked my mother. My uncle caught a nest of baby rabbits for me, and I brought back two."
Jiang Jiang seemed to be crying, "Mother, why didn't you go to complain to the emperor?"
"Your father has not returned from the palace yet, and your mother is fine."
Small but sensitive.
"Mother, did you and Father have a fight? Haven't you reconciled yet?"
Sheng Xiyan stroked his little face and said with a smile:
"There was no fight. Everything is fine. Don't worry, baby."
He took out some candies from his pocket,
"Mom, this is what Qi Yan bought for me. Pick one and eat it. It's so sweet."
Hua Xia helped Sheng Xiyan move up and leaned against the head of the bed.
"Have some apricot peel candy."
Sheng Xiyan picked a piece and handed it to Hua Xia.
"Hua Xia has worked hard, pick one."
