Chapter 101 The Grace of Prince Hua
"My beloved concubine was already in her teens at that time. Was she also intoxicated by the grace of Prince Hua?" Qi Yixiu asked as if he was really joking.
At that time, Prince Hua was the most favored prince. The previous emperor had no legitimate son, and among the illegitimate princes, Prince Hua was basically tacitly accepted as the crown prince.
Concubine Yang was beautiful, and Prince Hua was naturally not ugly, and he was also a very playful man.
It is true that the emperor was not as famous as King Hua at that time.
"Your Majesty is so funny. Although I could appreciate it at that time, what was the scene of His Royal Highness Prince Hua doing? I didn't even have the chance to enter the teahouse. His Royal Highness Prince Hua cleared the place a dozen meters away. After all, I have a good family background, and the carriage was probably good, so I got in and left quickly. The guards didn't do anything. As for the others, they were whipped and driven away. I didn't see Prince Hua's graceful demeanor, but I did see his horse. The horse was very graceful, but I wasn't fascinated by it."
Shen Chuliu laughed as she spoke: "However, no matter what Prince Hua's demeanor is, Your Majesty's eyes win."
"Your Majesty, please don't be angry. I spoke out of turn." Shen Chuliu stopped smiling and pulled Qi Yixiu's sleeve.
Qi Yixiu held her hand with his backhand: "If you don't mention it, I can't even remember what my sixth brother looks like."
"Your Majesty, I shouldn't have mentioned it. I just mentioned it at the moment." Shen Chuliu said.
"It's okay. I believe that when my beloved concubine was in the boudoir, she must have heard a lot about Sixth Brother's affairs?" Qi Yixiu was also aroused to talk about sex.
"That's not the case. My parents died early, and although I have several sisters in the mansion, we are not particularly harmonious. So we rarely talk about these things together. But I have heard a lot about Concubine Yang."
Shen Chuliu shook her head: "Ah, now I think about it, the sisters were still young at that time, and they cared a lot. Now I think about it, the sisters in the same mansion are the closest to each other."
"How can we be close if we have different interests?" Qi Yixiu smiled and said, "You have all heard about how Concubine Yang was favored, right?"
"That's for sure. But later, when His Royal Highness Prince Hua got into trouble, I did hear my grandfather accidentally say that after all, Concubine Yang was praised too highly. It harmed His Royal Highness Prince Hua." Shen Chuliu shook her head after saying this: "Let's not talk about this anymore. Your Majesty, don't think about it. It's all in the past."
"I'm telling you the truth. They made fun of me this morning for having slept with the emperor last night. It's just jealousy, huh. I still have to dine with the emperor, so let them be angry." Shen Chuliu said arrogantly.
This brilliant idea forced Qi Yixiu to recall his memory: "Why are you so petty?"
"I'm not petty, but... the emperor can't favor me in vain, right?" Shen Chuliu shook Qi Yixiu's hand.
"Forget it, you." Qi Yixiu shook his head: "Eat it quickly and go back. I can't afford to offend you."
Shen Chuliu smiled sweetly but said nothing.
Qi Yixiu laughed, pinched her cheek, and asked someone to serve the food.
Naturally, the news that Jing Meiren went to Taiji Palace spread quickly.
Some people hated it, while others were confused and puzzled.
In any case, Shen Chuliu stayed in Taiji Palace for more than two hours and went back only after having lunch.
After returning, Zizhu said, "Master, I don't understand."
"Oh, you can think of it as intercepting." Shen Chuliu said, "Although I won't stay, the emperor left my place early in the morning and had lunch with me at noon. If I go tonight, I'm afraid I'll turn over someone else's card. Wouldn't it be embarrassing for me? I just want to see if the emperor has any consideration for me."
"But...why?" Zizhu was even more confused.
Traditionally, the master doesn't care where the emperor goes.
"I'm afraid the emperor will go to Changle Palace." Shen Chuliu smiled evilly: "Going today will be different from going tomorrow."
"Oh, I understand." Zizhu suddenly realized.
Yes, although Concubine Yi did not stop her chief eunuch from being taken away today, she was still bullied.
At this time, if the emperor went to appease her, it would naturally be beneficial to Concubine Yi.
But if the emperor doesn't go today, who knows how many things will happen behind the scenes tomorrow.
And the favored Concubine Yi lost the opportunity.
What's more, with Shen Chuliu's departure, Concubine Yi must be worried behind the scenes.
After all, she had the eunuch taken away today, and anyone who went to Taiji Palace would be like filing a complaint.
Needless to say, she thinks too much and is prone to making mistakes.
Moreover, the more she thought about it, the more difficult it would be to invite the emperor to visit her in person.
Back and forth, this is the time. Shen Chuliu goes to talk to the emperor and gives some time to the other women in the harem.
It's not that she hates Concubine Yi to this extent, but it's natural that someone hates her.
She was poisoned once and took Chinese medicine once, this revenge must be avenged.
No one in the harem is clean, so they all get up. She just watches and there will be a chance in the future.
Zizhu spread out again. The reason why the master mentioned Prince Hua and Concubine Yang was not casually said.
She also mentioned that she and her sisters in the mansion were not on good terms...
The master had such a family background and was not on good terms with her sisters in the mansion because of her parents' death. But the emperor's situation was even more embarrassing because Prince Hua and his mother were favored.
Concubine Yang was of humble origins, but because she was favored, she acted without restraint.
At that time, many people did say that it was Concubine Yang who doted on Prince Hua, which was why he was harmed.
The master is so bold, he is really not afraid that the emperor will think too much, but how different is Concubine Yi now from Concubine Yang back then? They are both of humble origins and are equally doted on.
Today, Concubine Yi also indulges the servants, so will she also dote on the prince in the future? Zizhu looked at the profile of her master and thought, after all, she is a woman from a big family, she is really different.
Shen Chuliu felt sleepy, so she went into the inner room. She did what she was supposed to do, and left the rest to other concubines.
Anyway, everyone's common goal now is to prevent Concubine Yi from being too comfortable.
As for her, she just watched them mess around. After all, revenge wasn't something she had to do herself.
Qi Yixiu also took a nap, and after getting up he went to the study to work.
First I met the ministers, and after that was done with all the work, I had time to think about it.
He is not stupid, how could he not know that Shen Chuliu came to apply eye drops in the morning?
But who told that woman to say that she could make him happy? So Qi Yixiu didn't think much about it. As for Shen Chuliu coming to ask him not to turn over the cards tonight, he really didn't think about it.
However, regardless of whether it was Shen Chuliu's influence or not, he really did not turn over the card that night.
At night, Chen Sizheng from the Internal Criminal Department returned home and handed the matter over to his trusted subordinate, Zhang Guanshi.
Manager Zhang wandered into the dark room at the back.
Zhu Li is locked up there.
Zhu Li heard the door open and stood up. He was locked up as soon as he was brought in. No one came to ask him what happened, nor did he get tortured or given food.
He was almost suffocating.
"Oh, Manager Zhang, you are finally here. What's going on?" Zhu Li was polite. No matter how powerful one is, he has to be sensible and it is not right to say anything at this time.
