Xue Jieyu pricked up her ears to eavesdrop, but she couldn't hear the content clearly.
Suddenly, Emperor Xuanwu said angrily, "She actually said that? Go, call the chief musician of the Pear Garden. I want to see if what Sheng Xiyan said is true."
She said he had played a few notes wrong, which was impossible!
Concubine Xue, the palace maids, and the guards were so frightened that they knelt on the ground.
Xuan Ling was so angry that he sneered. Seeing Concubine Xue, he took his anger out on her and said, "You don't need to go to Yangxin Palace. Go back."
"Your Majesty? This concubine..."
Concubine Xue looked aggrieved. This once-in-a-lifetime opportunity was gone. She cried bitterly in her heart. Seeing Emperor Xuanwu's gloomy face, she dared not insist any longer and could only stand up and say, "I will take my leave."
Crossing the garden, Dun Guiyuan suddenly appeared.
"Sister Xue, why didn't you go to the Yangxin Palace to accompany the emperor?"
Concubine Xue said angrily, "It's all that little widowed woman all over again. I don't know how I managed to anger the Emperor and implicate me. Now my chance to accompany him is gone, and I haven't even gotten the golden hairpin. I'm so pissed off!"
Dun Guiyuan pulled her to sit on the stone bench and took the opportunity to sympathize with her:
"Sister Xue, you're really miserable, but I'll tell you something that I guarantee will help you vent your anger."
"What is it?"
Dun Guiyuan leaned close to her ear and said, "The young widow secretly worshipped her late husband in Guanju Palace. If you tell the emperor about this, he will definitely banish her to the cold palace!"
Upon hearing this, Xue Jieyu was extremely surprised, but then she asked suspiciously, "Are you sure? How did you know?"
"It's absolutely true! Yesterday, my maid saw Sheng Xiuyuan's servant holding a large cloth bag. Inside was a wooden tablet with words on it! There's no mistake!"
Concubine Xue hesitated and said, "Will the emperor believe it? What if? You also know that this little widow has many tricks. The emperor used to dote on her."
Dun Guiyuan bewitched her and said, "Sister also said that was in the past. Look, the emperor doesn't even take her seriously today. Otherwise, she would be the leader, right?
Besides, the Emperor was angry with her for something just now. If the Emperor knew about this, the little widow would be finished."
