Chapter 19: The Concubine is punished for finding fault



Still as annoying as ever! Concubine Xian turned her eyes to Chu Yaoyao who was eating snacks on the couch.

"The little princess is so well-behaved and cute. She looks so blessed. Not only the Queen Mother, but even I like her very much."

Chu Yaoyao was so angry that she couldn't even eat the snacks.

[Don't draw hatred to me. Is it a blessing to be targeted by everyone? This blessing is given to you. Do you want it? ]

Concubine Shu rubbed her face soothingly, with a hint of coldness in her eyes.

Since you involved Yaoyao, don't blame me.

"Speaking of which, the Third Prince has been studying very hard recently. Sister Xianfei must be very pleased."

As soon as Concubine Shu said this, the concubines present all lowered their heads and tried to hold back their laughter.

Who doesn't know that the Third Prince is always messing around with cats and dogs, not doing his job? After saying this, isn't Concubine Shu afraid that Concubine Xian will tear her apart regardless of the occasion? Just when the concubines were looking forward to the follow-up, they didn't expect Concubine Xian to stop.

Looking at Concubine Xian's appearance, Chu Yaoyao scratched his head.

[I really don’t understand why some people want to ruin their children?]

"Bang!"

The teacup in the Queen Mother's hand fell to the ground.

What does this mean? Chu Yaoyao looked over worriedly.

[The Empress Dowager's face looks very ugly. She must be in a lot of pain. She is in so much pain that she can't even hold the cup of tea.]

Chu Yaoyao blew on the empress dowager's hot spot.

[Oh, your hands are all burned red, Yaoyao will help you cool them down.]

Seeing her worried look, the Queen Mother felt warm in her heart. She took a deep breath, suppressed her anger, and touched her face. "The tea is too hot. Did it scare us?"

Chu Yaoyao shook her head.

The Queen Mother took the new tea from the palace maid and seemed to be drinking it slowly, but in fact she was concentrating on listening to Yaoyao's thoughts.

[The virtuous concubine and the Xiao family must have long been eyeing the throne. They first made the third brother useless, then supported him as a puppet emperor, slowly poisoned him and controlled him. Then they helped him die, and finally changed the dynasty of Daqi.]

Hearing this, the Queen Mother quickly twirled the Buddhist beads in her hand and lowered her eyes to hide the murderous intent in them.

Concubine Shu also looked shocked. She quickly lowered her head, fearing that someone would notice something.

[The virtuous concubine is truly a werewolf, she can even kill her own son. ]

[But they didn't expect a heroine to show up halfway, and they didn't expect that the third brother would be a love-brained person. ]

[After realizing that he was being controlled and aware of the Xiao family's ambitions, the third brother passed the throne to the heroine's son while he was still sober. In his opinion, at least the throne of Daqi did not fall into the hands of outsiders. But he didn't expect... Tsk tsk...]

After hearing this, Concubine Shu secretly shook her head. It was a rare moment of wisdom for her, but it was a pity that the child was not the Third Prince's biological child.

The Queen Mother, who had not heard the previous events, was confused: What did you not expect? [It can be said that this was the most intelligent time in his life, but unfortunately... not much. ]

Thinking of this, Chu Yaoyao couldn't help but curl her lips.

[I don't know what he was thinking. He would rather hand over the throne to a newborn child than entrust the country to his second brother.]

[He doesn't take his second brother seriously, but the heroine doesn't think so. The first thing she did after taking power was to poison her second brother to eliminate future troubles.]

[In her heart, her second brother, the only descendant of the Daqi royal family, is a much greater threat than the Xiao family.]

The Queen Mother paused for a moment while twirling the Buddhist beads. The heroine?

Who is that? Chu Yaoyao shook her head as she recalled.

[Fortunately, the Crown Prince is still here this time, so at least Da Qi has a successor. ]

[As long as the love-brained Third Brother doesn't become the next emperor, there is still hope for Daqi. ]

After expressing her feelings, Chu Yaoyao looked around and found that no one spoke.

[How weird! Why isn't anyone talking? ]

The Queen Mother was furious at this time. Great, what a virtuous concubine! What a great Xiao family! "Speaking of the Third Prince, virtuous concubine!"

The Queen Mother looked at Concubine Xian and angrily scolded: "How old is Chu Yao? He has been idle all day and has not been doing his job properly. Although he is not needed to inherit the throne, the royal family should still be taken into consideration. He is so playful and indulgent, which shows that you have not taught him well on weekdays!"

Then he stopped looking at her and said, "Go back and reflect on your mistakes!"

"yes."

Concubine Xian reluctantly got up and left, glancing resentfully in the direction of Concubine Shu.

Since the emperor ascended the throne, the empress dowager seldom talked about state affairs. This was the first time that the empress dowager said in public that the throne had nothing to do with Chu Yao.

It's all her fault for talking too much!

After Concubine Xian left, the concubines present looked at each other.

The Queen Mother punished Concubine Xian to reflect on her mistakes behind closed doors just because she said something about the little princess?

How much pampering does one have to have to achieve this?

Chu Yaoyao didn't know that this little episode, as a result, made many concubines treat her as someone who should not be messed with.

[System, what disease does the Empress have? ]

System: Rheumatoid arthritis, which is the rheumatism in modern times.

Chu Yaoyao touched the Queen Mother's covered legs.

[Don't worry, Grandmother, I will find a way to buy medicine to treat rheumatism when the plane mall opens. ]

Suddenly, Chu Yaoyao remembered something, [Ibuprofen can also relieve pain, why not let the Royal Grandmother take one? ]

Hearing this, Concubine Shu couldn't help but become nervous, fearing that she would come up with something out of thin air again in front of everyone.

Although she didn't understand what Yaoyao was saying, the empress dowager was very touched by the thoughtfulness.

He took off the ring on his hand and told her, "Keep it well, Yao'er."

"Empress Dowager, this is not a good idea." Concubine Shu advised.

The pearl on it is from the East. Apart from the Empress Dowager and the Emperor, only the Empress can use it in the palace.

"I'm giving my granddaughter a pearl. What's wrong with that? Who dares to say anything?" As he spoke, his sharp eyes swept over everyone.

She suppressed her own temperament and was cautious for most of her life, fearing that she would make a mistake.

Now that she is old, she has finally met a granddaughter who understands her, is considerate and filial. Can't she spoil her? What's more, Yaoyao is special.

The concubines present all bowed their heads and said, "I dare not."

The Queen Mother was first kind to Concubine Shu because of the little princess, and then punished Concubine Xian for the little princess. Now she rewarded her with the Dongzhu, a symbol of nobility.

You are favored to this extent.

First, they are not as favored as Concubine Shu, who is protected by the Emperor; second, they are not like Concubine Xian, who has the support of the prince and family.

Don’t dare…

Of course, not everyone thinks this way. There will always be one or two people who don’t fit in.

"What's wrong, mother? Did someone make you angry?" Emperor Qixuan strode in.

"Your Highness."

Emperor Qixuan said "hmm", asked them to stand up, looked at the Queen Mother and asked with concern: "How do you feel, Mother?"

The Queen Mother nodded slightly, her eyes fell on Yaoyao beside her, and thinking of what she had just heard, she said to Emperor Qixuan: "I have something to say."

The Emperor and the Queen Mother had something to discuss, so the concubines left.

Concubine Shu was about to get into the sedan chair with Yaoyao in her arms when she was stopped by someone suddenly.

"Sister Shufei, please stay!"
