Chapter 220 She is still the best
When people saw it, they wondered what was going on!
Even if something really happened, we should still save our face if possible.
"I'll spare you for now, get out!"
Concubine Shu sneered, then turned and instructed Yingtong: "Take two reliable people to keep watch for the eldest prince. They should wake up at night and ask for tea and water to keep him alert."
"yes."
This means that Nanny Yu and the others are not allowed to serve the eldest prince anymore.
Nanny Yu’s face turned pale, she kowtowed to express her gratitude, and retreated tremblingly.
After what happened today, she hadn't dared to hope to remain by the Crown Prince's side. She was lucky to have survived unscathed...
After leaving Jingyuan Palace, Emperor Yuan Yong walked away angrily. Dong Zhi and others did not dare to make a sound and followed him obediently.
When Emperor Yuan Yong came to his senses, he was already outside Lianyi Palace.
He thought about it and ordered Dong Zhi to knock on the door and ask.
If Concubine Chen had already gone to bed, there was no need to report his presence. If Concubine Chen had not gone to bed yet, he would go in.
Dong Zhi replied "yes" and went to knock on the door. Suddenly, he felt that the emperor seemed a little pitiful...
The little prince hadn't seen his mother much today, so he was full of energy that night, pestering his mother and making a fuss, refusing to go to bed. When Emperor Yuan Yong arrived, Xu Lanshan happened to be awake, and she had originally planned to go to bed.
Naturally, I couldn't sleep anymore.
She was deeply puzzled: Didn't he say he'd come tomorrow? He'd even sent a large reward, fearing she might be overthinking things. Why was he suddenly here in the middle of the night?
She went out to greet him while she was thinking: "Your Majesty!"
The woman in front of him was wearing a light apricot embroidered gauze dress. Her complicated bun had long been taken down, and her black hair was loosely tied up and fixed with a white jade hairpin. Her hair hung down, making her face look even whiter and more delicate. Under the faint moonlight, she walked towards him gracefully, with a gentle smile on her beautiful face. The irritability and anger in Emperor Yuan Yong's heart were instantly half soothed.
Yes, he was crazy.
Since someone doesn't know what's good for him, why should he be angry about it? It's ridiculous!
Since she was so ungrateful, he would just watch her die coldly. He still had Lan'er.
"Did I disturb Lan'er's rest?"
Emperor Yuan Yong held Xu Lanshan's hand and asked with a chuckle.
Xu Lanshan sensed some of his anger before she even got close. She didn't know what had happened, but he was in a very bad mood at the moment.
Maybe that's why you came here?
Although she didn't quite understand this causal relationship - perhaps he came to seek comfort? Then she would comfort him.
"I was just thinking about the Emperor. Now that the Emperor has come, I am so happy!"
"Really? Then I didn't escape in vain!"
"Your Majesty will never be absent from my place. I am happy whenever Your Majesty comes. Even in the middle of the night, I am eager for him to come!"
Emperor Yuan Yong laughed, and gently stroked Xu Lanshan's face with his slender fingertips. He bent down and kissed her: "You are so sweet-mouthed. I love to hear whatever you say."
Xu Lanshan took advantage of the situation and hugged his arm, giggling coquettishly: "I am just relying on the emperor's favor!"
Emperor Yuan Yong laughed even louder.
After entering the house and sitting down, Xu Lanshan personally served him hot tea. Emperor Yuan Yong took a few sips of tea to calm down, and his bad mood was almost completely calmed down.
He really didn't need to be angry.
You can't get angry with a fool like that.
However, many things in this palace, both openly and secretly, are hard to say. He must make some plans for the little prince and Lan'er, and have more people to watch over them secretly...
There is no need to tell Lan'er about this, so as to save her from worrying.
Emperor Yuan Yong did not want to mention what happened in Jingyuan Palace, and asked Xu Lanshan with a smile about the little prince's full moon banquet today.
Apart from a few ambiguous remarks made by Concubine Shu, Xu Lanshan was generally very satisfied, and she spoke about it with a smile on her face to Emperor Yuan Yong.
Emperor Yuan Yong was also very happy to hear this and laughed happily from time to time.
After a while, the two went to bed together.
But Emperor Yuan Yong was a little out of control tonight. He pressed Xu Lanshan and kissed her for a long time. Xu Lanshan had just come out of confinement, so the two of them naturally couldn't do anything more intimate. In the end, he didn't do anything rash. He finally stopped and held her tightly in his arms.
There were banquets inside and outside the palace today. Everyone was very tired and fell asleep in a short while.
The next day, Emperor Yuan Yong went to court. Xu Lanshan got up, washed up, and was drinking bird's nest soup when Xiao Fuzi came and said, "Your Majesty, there was big news in Jingyuan Palace yesterday..."
"Big news? Tell me about it!"
Xiao Fuzi smiled and said, "I haven't inquired in detail yet, but I heard that the Emperor went to Jingyuan Palace last night and questioned Concubine Shu about something. Concubine Shu and the eldest prince both cried miserably. Then the Emperor left in a rage... I also heard this morning that Concubine Shu was punished and confined to her house."
"Grounded? For how long?"
"The Emperor didn't say that!"
“…”
No, that means the time limit is indefinite. If the emperor doesn't remember this matter, and no one helps her to speak up for him, then she will have to remain under house arrest forever.
In the palace, if a concubine was punished with house arrest, it was no small matter; it was extremely embarrassing.
However, Concubine Shu has the eldest prince, and she can use the eldest prince to make things happen. I believe that the house arrest will not last too long.
Xu Lanshan couldn't help but ponder secretly. No matter how much she thought about it, she couldn't figure out what Concubine Shu had done to anger the emperor so much. But it couldn't be a small matter, otherwise it wouldn't have caused such a commotion.
What could it be?
He came last night without telling me, so it must be something difficult to talk about.
She's even weirder...
In the past, Xu Lanshan would have simply avoided the gossip and ignored it. It had nothing to do with her anyway. As long as her Lianyi Palace was peaceful and tranquil, who would blame her for the chaos outside?
But Shufei is different. Now that she has a little prince, she is even more different.
If there is any disturbance in the palace, it is always better to know than not to know.
"Go and ask around. Don't be afraid to spend money, but be sure to get the real news. Also, don't be too loud."
"Yes, Madam. Don't worry, it's just a small matter. I will take care of it in half a day."
Normally, the Queen Mother would ask him to get close to people by giving them money and various snacks and fruits, so it wouldn't be difficult for him to find out some information at this time.
Xu Lanshan smiled and said, "Then go!"
"yes."
During breakfast, Xu Lanshan discussed the matter with Nanny An, Yuchan and others, and they were all surprised.
But I have to say, I also feel a bit of gloating...
How wild the Concubine was at the banquet yesterday!
Did you think about what would happen later?
Xiao Fuzi came back to report in less than half a day.
