Chapter 234: The Irritable Queen Mother vs. the Cold Imperial Master (17)
Five days later.
The sleeping hall of the Cining Palace.
Lu Cha sat in front of the bronze mirror with sleepy eyes, letting Jin Yu do her makeup.
"General Jiang brought Miss Lianxue to the palace yesterday, and the Emperor slept with her that night. Not only did he make her a noble concubine, but the eunuchs there also said that the Emperor was very fond of her and had given her many fine gifts."
Jin Yu was indignant: "General Jiang's move clearly intends to get Jiang Lianxue to cause trouble for you."
Lucha was very curious.
The male protagonist likes Jiang Lianxue?
What?
The turtle looks at the mung bean—are they attracted to each other?
[How is that possible?] The system couldn't help but come online and mock its own host:
[A few days ago, the male protagonist gave Wanpin a cup of poisoned wine and learned about the incident in the corridor. Coincidentally, he had just finished favoring Wanpin.]
[The male protagonist thought you were the Wanpin who was obsessed with him and wanted to get rid of him out of jealousy.]
He followed General Jiang's plan and accepted Jiang Lianxue, hoping to piss you off, this vicious woman who couldn't get him.
Lucha: "..."
Thank you. She was feeling nauseous all morning.
"Your Highness the Queen Mother, the Imperial Concubine has brought the concubines from the harem to pay their respects to you. They are now waiting in the main hall." The palace maid walked into the hall and said respectfully.
Lu Cha seemed to be smiling.
The dog just climbed up and couldn't wait to cause trouble for her?
"Let Concubine Mu return to the palace first."
Otherwise she would scare her little heroine!
-
Inside the main hall.
Jiang Lianxue sat in the first seat below the first one, with her chin raised arrogantly, and she didn't notice that Mulanyue, who was sitting near the door, was quietly called away by the palace maid.
The other concubines sat in order according to their respective ranks.
Jiang Lianxue put down the teacup in her hand with disgust.
Can the things the little bitch has here be as good as the ones the emperor gave her?
"The Queen Mother has arrived—"
Following the eunuch's announcement, the concubines immediately stood up and saluted.
Jiang Lianxue also leaned forward reluctantly and said, "Your Highness greets the Empress Dowager."
As soon as she finished speaking, Jiang Lianxue froze when she caught sight of the old nanny following behind Lu Cha.
The shadow of being slapped repeatedly suddenly appeared before my eyes.
She subconsciously tensed her back and gave a standard salute.
"Everyone, get up."
Lu Cha glanced at Jiang Lianxue meaningfully:
"The Imperial Concubine has her head bowed so low. Could it be that she has lost something and is looking for it?"
Jiang Lucha actually dared to mock him?!
She is now a concubine! She is deeply loved by Chu Yixiao!
Thinking of this, Jiang Lianxue's fear of the old nanny disappeared. She couldn't help but straighten her chest and said deliberately:
"I served the Emperor all night yesterday, and my body hasn't recovered yet. I'm so tired that I can't stand properly."
Jiang Lianxue pretended to be shy, with a hint of anticipation in her eyes.
Jiang Lucha liked Chu Yixiu so much before, but now she must be furious after hearing such words!
However.
Lu Cha just sat in the first seat, drinking tea slowly without even looking at her.
That leisurely and contented look completely ignored her.
Jiang Lianxue felt inexplicably aggrieved. She suppressed her anger and sat back in her chair, then spoke bluntly:
"I came here today not only to pay my respects to the Empress Dowager, but also to retrieve the Phoenix Seal on the Emperor's orders."
She just didn't believe that Jiang Lucha could still sit still!
Because Chu Yixiao did not have a queen, the phoenix seal in the harem has always been kept by its original owner.
"The Emperor said that I will be the Empress sooner or later and can manage the harem in advance."
Jiang Lianxue was very proud: "Queen Dowager, why don't you quickly have someone bring it out?"
"Your Highness, you have overstepped your bounds."
Jiang Lianxue had a strange bad feeling.
The next moment, she was pressed onto a chair by two extremely strong palace maids.
Bang!
The old lady slapped her skillfully.
"Ah!" Jiang Lianxue's cheeks suddenly felt a burning pain.
"What did I do wrong?! Why did the Queen Mother order someone to beat me?!"
She saluted! She didn't even call the bitch by her name!
Lu Cha put down the teacup, his eyes dim:
"The concubine pays respects to you at the hour of Mao, but you delayed your arrival until the hour of Si."
"He even ordered me to give you the Phoenix Seal."
"What do you think, should we fight?"
Jiang Lianxue was furious and blurted out, "I think the Queen Mother is jealous of me because I am favored by the Emperor, and she is deliberately taking revenge! Ah!!!"
This time, the old lady slapped Jiang Lianxue twice: "How dare you!"
"The Queen Mother is the Emperor's mother! How could she be jealous of you being favored?!"
Lu Cha covered his chest in disbelief and followed the old nanny's words:
"I never thought that you, Imperial Concubine, would dare to slander the relationship between me and the Emperor as mother and son."
"You are so unfilial!"
"Someone! Drag him away! Give him twenty slaps as punishment!"
The bastard came to her door and asked her to beat him, so she had to satisfy his wish!
"Jiang Lucha, how dare you?! I...mmmm!" Before Jiang Lianxue could finish her words, she was blocked by the palace maid and forcibly dragged away.
The old lady rolled up her sleeves and rubbed her hands ready to go.
This time we have to attack from both sides!
The other concubines were in a state of panic, fearing that the capricious empress dowager would have people beat them.
Unexpectedly, the girl who looked like she was about to faint from anger just now was now smiling:
"From now on, you don't have to get up early to pay respects in the Cining Palace. Just spend time with me when you have time."
Lu Cha raised his hand and motioned Jin Yu to take out the jewelry and give it to each concubine as a reward.
Looking at the beautiful girls, each with their own unique charm, thanking him, Lu Cha felt like he was in the clouds, floating in the air.
Hiss—it seems like he has experienced the joy of being an emperor!
-
Imperial study.
Listening to the eunuch's report, the empress dowager severely punished the imperial concubine, but was particularly friendly to other concubines. Chu Yixiao paused while reviewing the memorials, and a sneer appeared on his lips.
It seems that his plan was successful.
Jiang Lucha, it turns out, still has feelings for him.
Let the two sisters fight each other so that he can reap the benefits.
Best of all, kill the other person.
At this time, a crying voice was heard:
"Your Majesty! You must make the decision for me—!"
