Chapter 187 Concubine Yu commits suicide
Emperor Yuan Yong felt inexplicably irritated. He simply stood up and said coldly, "I don't have time to accompany you in your madness. Since you have nothing to say, then I have nothing to say either! I hereby decree that Concubine Yu be stripped of her title, demoted to a commoner, and banished to the cold palace effective immediately! All the maids in Baohe Palace are to be sent to the Shanggong Bureau for their fate. The Liu family is dismissed for their poor parenting skills and will be put on trial!"
Concubine Yu felt dizzy and her vision was black. She crawled over hurriedly on her knees, tightly grasping a corner of Emperor Yuan Yong's robe and crying for mercy: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty! This is all my fault. I was bewitched! My crime is unforgivable and I dare not ask Your Majesty for forgiveness, but my father and brother are innocent! Your Majesty! Please forgive them! They know nothing! They are loyal to Your Majesty! Please forgive them!"
Emperor Yuan Yong's expression remained unwavering. He glanced down at her coldly from a high position. "If I had known this would happen, why would I have done it in the first place? Liu, I'm using this incident as an example to warn others, so how can I spare you? Are they innocent? I don't think so. If you had any filial piety or considered them beforehand, you wouldn't have done such a thing. You still have the nerve to say they're innocent? You've ruined their innocence! Let go!"
Emperor Yuan Yong left angrily and never looked back.
The woman behind him's shrill and mournful cries of "Your Majesty! Your Majesty!" did not make him feel the slightest bit soft-hearted.
He just felt it was ridiculous and a little dazed.
What is this?
His harem was like this! Peel off the gorgeous exterior and the filth within was so filthy that it almost made him nauseous.
After Emperor Yuan Yong left Baohe Palace, he subconsciously headed towards Lianyi Palace.
He suddenly stopped halfway, flicked his sleeves and said coldly: "Return to Ganyuan Palace!"
Dong Zhi and others all bowed and followed.
Emperor Yuan Yong's pace slowed down unconsciously.
He felt a little confused.
The crime committed by Concubine Yu was unforgivable, and since he was determined to make an example of her, it was even more impossible for him to forgive her.
Otherwise, how can we achieve the effect of killing the chicken to scare the monkey?
Things like this happen again and again, and he doesn't have the time to investigate thoroughly.
I'm so annoyed.
He didn't think he was cruel to Concubine Yu. She brought it all upon herself.
Looking back, the feelings of the past seem ridiculous.
However, the question that Concubine Yu asked him kept lingering in his mind.
Concubine Yu asked him if he had ever liked her. Although he didn't answer, he secretly asked himself, "I guess... I had, right?" After all, Concubine Yu was a beauty, a delight to behold, and she was known for flattery. How could he not like her?
But he intuitively felt that the "like" that Yu Fei asked about did not seem to mean the same as what he thought it meant.
So, it seems like he never liked...
Does he like Concubine Chen?
Lan'er...Lan'er is different from others!
This thought came to his mind subconsciously, and he was certain of it.
He treated Lan'er differently than he treated others. It wasn't his fault for being partial. Lan'er was different from the others, well-behaved and sensible, good in every way. She was deeply in love with him, but she had never done anything shady to win his favor. Her heart was pure, so how could he blame him for liking her?
Besides, he is the emperor, he can like whatever he wants, so what?
But he couldn't help but subconsciously ask himself, how much does he like Lan'er...? How different is it from how he likes others? What kind of existence does Lan'er hold in his heart?
Emperor Yuan Yong couldn't figure it out for a while and was in a state of confusion...
The news of Concubine Yu's punishment spread quickly in the palace like a gust of wind, including the reason why she was punished!
All six palaces were shocked!
"I can't believe it was her! She hid it very well."
"Oh, the emperor has finally lost his patience! He has finally investigated."
"I never thought that Concubine Yu could be so vicious..."
"Your Majesty is wise. It's a good thing that you found out about a vicious woman like Concubine Yu. Otherwise, it would be terrifying to think that such a person would be hiding among the sisters!"
"Although Concubine Yu is vicious, Fu Shi is not wronged. After all, she did it herself. And who blames her for being stupid..."
In this palace, being stupid is also a sin.
You are stupid, so you deserve to be taken advantage of, and you deserve to be taken advantage of and yet you don’t get any sympathy from others!
But this fool, Fu, is different from any other fool, because she is a daughter of the Fu family and the niece of the empress dowager.
While everyone was cursing Concubine Yu's cruelty and Fu's misfortune, they were all secretly paying attention to what was happening in the Cining Palace.
The Empress Dowager...I'm afraid she hates Concubine Yu very much, right?
The Empress Dowager really hated Concubine Yu. On the day she learned the truth, she remained silent for a long time, but her eyes gradually turned red.
"Concubine Yu..."
This bitch has brought great harm to her Fu family!
The Queen Mother did not sleep well that night. Only she knew how tormented she was.
She thought that after the truth was revealed yesterday, the emperor would come to comfort her. But, no.
The emperor did not come.
This also means that the emperor has not changed his plan to punish the Fu family and the Fu clan.
The Queen Mother's heart felt as if it had sunk into an ice cellar, chilling to the bone.
Nanny Chang understood her thoughts and couldn't help but say, "Empress Dowager, please be patient. The Emperor must be feeling very upset right now. It's possible that he forgot for a moment. When the Emperor remembers, I think he will definitely give an explanation to the Fu family and the Empress Dowager. After all, you are the Empress Dowager..."
The Queen Mother was not as optimistic as she was. She smiled sadly, shook her head and sighed, "It's hard to say. The Emperor's thoughts are not so easy to guess. Well, I will just wait a little longer..."
The next day, the empress dowager waited for the emperor, but the emperor did not show any intention of showing leniency to the Fu family and the Fu family.
Concubine Yu’s fault was Concubine Yu’s, and what Concubine Fu did was done by Concubine Fu. No matter what the reason is, the facts are there, and the crime is unforgivable!
The Queen Mother sighed and had nothing to say.
With such reasons, the Fu family couldn't be pardoned. But the Emperor was truly too ruthless, unwilling to even give in...
The Empress Dowager resented the Emperor, but she hated Concubine Yu even more.
Even if Concubine Yu was sent to the cold palace, she would never let her have an easy time!
Unexpectedly, Concubine Yu did not let her wait for the opportunity to torture and humiliate her, and she committed suicide.
When the news came, the Queen Mother smiled coldly: "She is lucky! How blessed is she!"
Emperor Yuan Yong was silent for a moment, sighed, and ordered her to be sent away for burial.
Everyone in the palace sighed, and no one dared to say a word.
Xu Lanshan didn't expect that Concubine Yu would choose to commit suicide so cleanly.
