Chapter 220: The Irritable Queen Mother vs. the Cold Imperial Master (3)
Lu Cha was about to go find Ming Yan when he heard a female voice coming from behind the rockery in the distance:
"You are just a mere concubine, yet you dare to challenge me?"
There is only one imperial concubine in the harem, and that is Mulanyue, who was just conferred the title two days ago.
But the little villain is just ahead...
Lu Cha hesitated for a moment and chose to go to the rockery.
She hasn't seen the little heroine yet!
Because of the sound just now, Ming Yan, who was standing by the pond, turned his head slightly and happened to catch a glimpse of Lu Cha's figure gradually moving away.
Thinking of her frivolous words last night, Ming Yan looked away in disgust.
"Master Imperial Master, the Emperor has left the court, but he has urgent matters to attend to and cannot come to the Imperial Garden. He has ordered this servant to come and ask you to go to the Imperial Study."
The eunuch who came trotting over spoke respectfully and couldn't help but steal a glance at Ming Yan.
The beauty of the clouds and the rhythm of the moon, the clear breeze and the bright moon.
Legend has it that when the Imperial Master was born, auspicious clouds descended from the sky, signifying a deity descending to earth.
Although the Ming family is now in decline and no longer as prosperous as it was decades ago, the National Master has always been a god revered by ordinary people like them.
Seeing Ming Yan sprinkle the remaining fish food in the porcelain bottle to feed the fish in the pond, the eunuch looked at him respectfully.
The Imperial Master is indeed kind-hearted.
The eunuch quickly bent down even lower and walked in front to lead Ming Yan.
Little did he know that not long after he left.
The fish that were originally competing for food all turned belly up and died, floating on the shimmering water.
-
A rockery with strange rocks.
When Lu Cha brought Jin Yu over, he saw a girl in a purple dress looking helplessly at the woman in blue standing opposite her.
The girl was probably eighteen or nineteen years old, but she was already elegant and beautiful, with eyes like a pool of spring water, sparkling with lively light.
Lu Cha's eyes were bright.
It’s her little heroine!
"Empress Wan, if you don't believe Lan Yue's words, you can send someone to the imperial kitchen to ask. Half an hour ago, Lan Yue asked them to make almond cakes."
"What Lan Yue took was not your share."
Wanpin didn't care about Mulanyue's explanation.
Of course she knew that Mulanyue did not take the wrong pastries, she just wanted to find a reason to teach her a lesson.
Who allowed this little bitch to seduce the Emperor and directly promoted him from a concubine to a concubine?!
Especially, his family background is so good!
Wanpin's eyes flashed with jealousy, and she was arrogant:
"I said you took it wrong, and that's it. Who allowed you to talk back?!"
Wanpin raised her hand viciously, wanting to take the opportunity to scratch Mulanyue's face, but was suddenly clamped at the wrist.
"ah!"
"Who dares to grab my hand?!"
When Wanpin saw that it was the Empress Dowager's maid Jinyu, she panicked.
Sure enough, when she turned her head, she saw Lu Cha walking towards her, and her heart started beating like a drum.
Shouldn't the Queen Mother leave the court and return to the Cining Palace to rest at this time?
Could it be that he is here to settle the score with her?
When Lu Cha saw Wanpin, he smiled meaningfully.
It was the bastard who gave her the aphrodisiac.
"Your servant greets the Queen Mother." Wanpin hurriedly shook off Jinyu's hand and bowed.
Mulanyue also bent down.
Lu Cha raised her hand slightly, motioning them to stand up. Then, she glanced at the almond cakes held by Wanpin's maid.
"A plate of cakes actually made Concubine Wan so fussy. It seems that after your father was demoted, our family has really become difficult."
Wanpin's face immediately turned as dark as the bottom of a pot when she tried to fight back.
Lu Cha's next words made her face turn pale in an instant.
"Speaking of which, the crabapple cake I ate in your palace yesterday seemed to taste a bit strange."
Wanpin forced a smile: "But, it may be because other flowers were added in it."
"I have been feeling unwell these past few days. Please allow me to return to the palace and rest."
After Jiang Lucha leaves, I will come and settle the score with Mu Lanyue!
Lu Cha waved his hand in disdain.
She hadn't even gotten scared yet, but the dog couldn't hold on any longer.
After Wanpin ran away in a panic, Lucha quietly told Jinyu:
"Go put laxatives in Wanpin's lunch."
"The kind that can collapse."
Although she didn't understand what the Queen Mother meant, Jin Yu still did as she was told.
Mulanyue looked at Lucha curiously.
This was the first time she met the empress dowager, who was rumored to be cruel and vicious.
The people in the palace, on the surface, respected the Queen Mother, but in fact they were secretly cursing each other behind her back, calling her a fool, an evil woman, a disaster star, etc.
But the Queen Mother didn't look as scary and terrifying as those palace maids and eunuchs said.
But at this moment, a soft feeling passed by Mulanyue's ears.
Lu Cha plucked a willow leaf from her hair and said, "Be more careful next time."
"Lan Yue thanks the Queen Mother."
Seeing Mulanyue's little face flushed with shyness, Lucha screamed in his heart:
The little heroine is so innocent and cute!!!
Mulan Yue bravely asked, "Lan Yue wants to go to the pond over there to feed the fish. Queen Mother, would you like to come with us?"
Lucha nodded like a chick pecking at rice, took the opportunity to hold Mulanyue's hand, and said seriously:
"I just twisted my ankle accidentally. Before Jinyu came back, I had to trouble Lanyue to help me."
Hehehe~
She is such a clever little girl!
Mulanyue replied with a "yes" obediently.
When the two came to the pond.
Ming Yan is no longer here.
There was only a group of dead fish with their stomachs turned upside down.
Lu Cha was confused.
They were all alive just now!!!
