Chapter 30: Concubine Xian is punished again



Xian Fei gently covered her chest, looking terrified, "I don't know what Yao Er did to get injured. If he was there last night, he would definitely not let the assassin succeed."

The prince who was present and injured the emperor:...

So you're saying I'm useless.

Useless contestant number two Chu You: ...

If you want to praise your son, just do it. There's no need to put him down like this.

[Third brother is injured, what happened? ]

System: Host, do you want to know?

[Let me finish eating this melon first. ]

Concubine Xian continued, "Originally Yao'er wanted to come, but the imperial physician said that his wound should not be exposed to the wind."

“Bang!”

Emperor Qixuan threw the soup bowl to the ground.

"How dare you mention the third son!" Emperor Qi Xuan was furious and said, "Look at what you have done! What have you taught my prince to be like!"

Concubine Xian knelt down on the soup-covered ground in panic, looking at the furious Emperor Qixuan with pitiful eyes.

[Eh~ You really know how to pick a place. 】

When Concubine Shu saw it, she was sure it was true.

The broken soup bowl was a few steps away from her, but she walked over and knelt there.

Not only did he carefully avoid the broken porcelain pieces, but the soup had already gone cold and he looked like he'd been scalded.

Madam Xianfei, you always act pitiful, but it's a pity about the clothes you wear.

But Concubine Xian's seductive glance was in vain, as Emperor Qixuan didn't even look at her.

"Your Majesty, please understand. Yao'er is my own son. Of course I hope he will become successful!"

Hearing this, Chu Yaoyao turned her head and snorted.

[You are not only looking forward to his success, you are looking forward to his becoming an emperor. ]

Become the emperor? A hint of understanding flashed across the prince's eyes. In fact, he should have thought of it earlier. Even if Li Guipin was extremely bold, she would never dare to murder the crown prince.

If he doesn't survive and his second brother is disabled, who will benefit in the end?

"Really?" Emperor Qixuan looked at her and sneered.

Xian Fei nodded hurriedly, "Of course."

"The soup has been delivered, what else?"

"I heard that the emperor was injured, and I remembered that my father once met a Taoist priest. The elixir made by the Taoist priest has the effect of nourishing the body and prolonging life."

Chu Yaoyao moved her little ears and poked her head out from Concubine Shu's arms.

[Here she comes, she is coming with the Taoist priest who poisoned two emperors. ]

"It's just..." Concubine Xian glanced at Emperor Qixuan and said tentatively, "The Taoist priest only wants to meet with my father, and he can't invite anyone else."

Hearing this, Emperor Qixuan looked at her with a half-smile, "So you mean to ask me to cancel the punishment on Xiao Wentao?"

The virtuous concubine bit her lip slightly, "Your Majesty's words are golden, I dare not think so, but I pity my father's loyalty to the emperor, how about we think of a compromise?"

Hearing this, Emperor Qixuan's expression eased slightly, but if you look closely, you can hardly hide the coldness in his eyes. "What do you mean?"

Seeing his expression, Concubine Xian thought there was hope and continued, "I think it would be better if we let father go find the Taoist priest first. If the elixir is really effective, then father will have redeemed himself."

Chu Yaoyao pouted her lips.

[How could it not be effective? With the addition of the Five Stones Powder, even an elderly person can show off their virility, not to mention my cheap father who is in his prime.]

[That thing nourishes the kidneys and strengthens the yang, how can you not be energetic after eating it? And the more you eat it, the more you become addicted. ]

Concubine Shu looked at the little girl in her arms with a look of surprise.

These words...were they all taught by immortals?

Concubine Shu couldn't help but hold her forehead with her hand, Oh my God, what on earth did the immortal teach Yaoyao?

Emperor Qixuan suppressed his anger and walked from behind the desk to Concubine Xian. He raised his hand and pinched her chin with his index finger and thumb.

"Oh? It seems that Concubine Xian really cares about me."

Emperor Qixuan looked down at her, "It seems that I have been too lenient over the years, allowing you to take advantage of my favor and become arrogant. I told you to forget that the harem is not allowed to interfere in government affairs!"

Concubine Xian lay on the ground, looking at Emperor Qixuan in disbelief, "No, Your Majesty, I didn't do that. I don't dare!"

She crawled to the feet of Emperor Qixuan, tears in her eyes, crying, "Your Majesty, you can't think of me like this. I am really just worried about your health."

The virtuous concubine's hands, hidden in her wide sleeves, were clenched tightly. Her carefully maintained nails broke one by one, and the broken nail fragments sank deeply into her palms.

It hurts a lot.

But compared to the humiliation she suffered in public, this little pain was nothing. As long as the emperor believed in the elixir made by Taoist Qin, they could take the opportunity to poison the emperor little by little. At that time, she only needed to wait...

One day, she will tear into pieces those who have seen her being humiliated today!

Emperor Qixuan certainly did not miss the flash of resentment in her eyes. At this moment, he felt only disgust and nausea towards the person in front of him.

"Since Minister Xiao is devoted to me, how can I not be grateful for his hard work?"

He looked at Concubine Xian, his eyes were cold, and he opened his thin lips slightly, "Since you said that the elixir can prolong life, then when we find the Taoist priest, we will give the elixir to Lord Xiao."

"Only in this way can Lord Xiao be loyal to the country forever!"

Xianfei looked a little flustered. "How can this be possible? Good things should of course be presented to the emperor."

Seeing her hypocritical look, Emperor Qixuan looked away in disdain, "Xianfei is so worried about my health. I think any tonic soup is not as practical as praying for me in person."

Concubine Xian kept shaking her head. She couldn't figure out what went wrong and why it happened. Emperor Qixuan shouted, "Someone come!"

"Take Concubine Xian back to Changhua Palace and give her 500 copies of Buddhist scriptures. She is not allowed to leave Changhua Palace until she finishes copying them!"

"Send someone to strictly guard outside Changhua Palace to prevent some blind people from disturbing Concubine Xian from copying scriptures and praying for blessings!"

Chu Yaoyao opened her mouth wide.

[Five hundred scriptures? Isn't this just a disguised way of banishing the virtuous concubine to the cold palace? ]

The virtuous concubine collapsed instantly and fainted.

Emperor Qixuan waved his hand, and the palace servants carried her away with a look of courtesy.

[What is going on? Did my scumbag dad notice something? ]

Turning around, Emperor Qixuan looked at the prince with a complicated expression, seeming to be hesitant to speak.

"Don't worry, Father. My third brother is my third brother. I understand."

Hearing this, Emperor Qixuan patted his shoulder with satisfaction.

The atmosphere in the imperial study became solemn. The Crown Prince and the Second Prince slowed down their steps and prepared to leave.

"Shufei stay."

The prince was tactful and picked up Yaoyao.

Chu Yaoyao stretched out her hand and grabbed in the direction of Concubine Shu.

【I want to stay too! 】

Soon, Emperor Qixuan and Concubine Shu were the only ones left in the imperial study.

As soon as Concubine Shu stood up, she was hugged.

"emperor?"

Emperor Qixuan's tone was slightly dull, "Let me hold you for a while."

The former virtuous concubine was also a bright, charming and kind-hearted woman.

Now it has become unrecognizable...

After leaving the imperial study, Chu You asked worriedly, "Brother Crown Prince, father…"

The prince comforted him, "Don't worry."

"Second brother, hold Yaoyao and play with her for a while. I still have to make arrangements for leaving the palace tomorrow."

Hearing this, Chu Yaoyao's eyes lit up.

[Leaving the palace?! ]
