The First Empress - Chapter 19
Chapter 19 Dispose of the Old Imperial Concubine
This side was in a ruckus. Not long after, Old Concubine Shao Yining arrived at Cloud Phoenix Hall.
Seeing Consort Shao come to Yunluan Palace, the maids and maids bowed slightly. Bu Linglong quickly stopped massaging the Emperor and also arrived in front of Consort Shao. Just as she was about to bless Consort Shao, she was stopped by a pair of firm hands.
“Do you want to bow down to such a person?” Huiqi’s face darkened.
Linglong was stunned and hurriedly retreated behind her.
Only then did he look at Consort Shao. Consort Shao was no longer a beauty from more than 20 years ago. She wore a half-new ziyi robe and had a sandalwood scent on her body. She had probably been contaminated by incense burned in the Buddhist temple for many years.
Imperial concubine Shao acted as if nothing had happened. She stood still. Linglong could even see the gentle halo on the string of South Pearls. It was an arc that only happened every day and night. How many years would it take to wear the string of South Pearls into such a radiant state?
But this kind of person was a poisonous woman with evil intentions. It was simply unimaginable.
Just as he was sizing it up, Hui Qi’s gaze fell on Concubine Shao and sneered, “How is Concubine Shao?”
“Long time no see, Your Majesty is becoming more and more handsome,” said Concubine Shao coldly. “This is what An Hao, An Hao, and An Hao are like. Don’t you see them?”
Huiqi slammed the table fiercely. “Back then, Emperor Er Niang wanted to kill you several times. Do you know that? Every time, I tried my best to persuade Emperor Er Niang to change her mind and save your dog life. I didn’t expect you to do such an indecent thing today. Don’t tell me that the rules of the palace can’t restrain a bitch like you?”
The matriarch frowned and said, “A person is a person, there is no distinction between noble and inferior.”
Huiqi frowned. “After the death of the first emperor, I also thought about it. Emperor Er Niang was still there at that time and told me that the rules of the palace couldn’t restrain you. I didn’t believe it at that time. Now that it seems that Emperor Er Niang is wise and farsighted, what else do you have to say now?” As he spoke, he threw the porcelain bottle in front of Concubine Shao, and the porcelain bottle shattered beneath Concubine Shao’s feet.
Imperial Concubine Shao’s eyebrows curved into willows, but she still remained calm. Indeed, it had been several years since the green lantern had been nurtured. She only lifted her lips and said, “It was you who usurped the throne, and yet you still said such a grand thing. Huiqi, don’t forget that it was you who usurped the throne. I just want you to die.” “Your Majesty, Your Majesty is just a toy in the hands of the Ai Clan. What is Your Majesty? He is just a toy in the hands of the Ai Clan …”
According to Huiqi’s authority in the imperial palace, he would never say such words to such an old concubine. However, today, the case that had stirred up the old times was naturally raging like thunder. With a wave of his hand, he swept an incense burner beside his hand onto the ground. “You bitch, you dare to be presumptuous!” Tell me, which palaces did you send flowers and grass to? ”
Black blood actually flowed from the corner of Concubine Shao’s mouth. She was already afraid of being torn apart and had just been summoned to drink the poison. She was so sinful that she would definitely not have any good results. Forget it, it was better for her to die by her own hands.
Actually, from the beginning, Shao Yining had been jealous of the good luck of the Virgin Empress Dowager. She had obtained the exclusive pet of the previous emperor and gave birth to the Emperor’s son. Unlike herself, who had worked hard for so long until she finally became an unfavored concubine, she had already endured enough for many years. There were several times when she knew that Hui Qi had helped her resolve her crisis, but thinking that Dali Dynasty would be Hui Qi and his descendants from now on, she was naturally unwilling.
Thus, he borrowed this opportunity to grow flowers and buried the musk beneath the roots of the flowers before sending it out. Logically speaking, all the women in the palace were as meticulous as dust. However, no one would have thought that they would be poisoned like this, so they would be able to get away with it.
However, she didn’t expect that a small character would ruin her plan. Concubine Shao smiled and the blood at the corner of her mouth was even more drenched. Bu Linglong couldn’t bear to see such a scene and turned her head away.
“Stop daydreaming! This place, Zihua Palace, is not yours after all. I just want you to die!” Imperial Concubine Shao suddenly shouted loudly, then slowly exhausted herself. Finally, she twitched on the ground and no longer made a sound.
Hui Qi turned around, and Bu Linglong also turned around. She couldn’t help but be shocked when she saw this shocking scene. Hui Qi patted her hand and said, “Forget it, I’ve already wanted to deal with these matters. Or have you discovered the clues carefully? Otherwise, I don’t know how many of my children will be killed by this poisonous woman.”
Linglong blushed and shrunk into Huiqi’s embrace. In the end, she still didn’t dare to look at that face. Concubine Shao’s face was truly too terrifying. That kind of horror was a kind of conspiracy and impulse that could only be destroyed. That face was actually still smiling. She was still smiling at Huiqi and Bu Linglong.
Huiqi sighed, “Bury it, don’t dirty the temple. Eunuch Lu, you know what to do.”
The people in the palace were naturally apprenticed to the dragon and the phoenix, and this set of lessons was compulsory for everyone.
He didn’t expect that the Empress would be alarmed in a moment. Ji Zhuhua also arrived in Yunluan Palace after a while. Seeing the mess on the ground, he sighed slightly and held the Emperor’s hand. “The Emperor must be tired. Look at this day. Thanks to Sister Cai Ren, otherwise, wouldn’t we be trapped in the drums for the rest of our lives?” She looked at Bu Linglong with her loving eyes.
The Emperor also looked at Ji Zhuhua with a pleasant expression, “I’m tired of you. Take a look and let you come over again.”
Ji Zhuhua’s voice sounded like a gentle breeze. “What are you saying? If the Emperor wants to be lucky, then don’t ruin your interest. Today, this concubine will write down a sum for this sister. At that time, you will have to beg for the Emperor’s favor.”
‘”Shao Yining is such a bitch. Relying on no one to care about her, she is always capable of causing trouble. I don’t know if these things are my fault.”
“What sin do you have?” Hui Qi sighed and stood up. Seeing that the Emperor was leaving, Ji Zhuhua hurriedly winked at Bu Linglong. How smart was Linglong? She immediately stood in front of the Emperor and said, “Is the Emperor leaving?”
“Oh, I almost forgot my business.” Hui Qi turned around and relaxed Bu Linglong’s tense nerves.
Empress Ji Zhuhua looked at Bu Linglong with a smile and then at the Emperor, “Sister Cai Ren can take good care of the Emperor. This palace will go now.”
As he spoke, he walked outside and looked at the corpse beneath his feet. He said coldly, “What’s going on with Eunuch Lu? Why don’t you drag him out and feed him to the dog?” Eunuch Lu hurriedly waved his horseshoe and dragged the corpse of Old Concubine Shao Yining outside. Ji Zhuhua covered his lips and curled his lips in disgust, “Go and show me where these bottles and cans are. Make sure to investigate them at once, so that the Emperor won’t be unhappy to know.”
After saying that, he slowly said, “I understand that you can reward Imperial Physician Hu and Imperial Physician Pei as much as you want.” Hearing this, the steward eunuch nodded and bowed.
Just as they walked out of Cloud Phoenix Hall, a few concubines could not stop them from rushing inside. Empress Ji Zhuhua looked at concubine Ning Yanliu and behind her were Shun Fei and Lan Zhaoyuan. The Empress shouted resolutely, “Impudent, what are you doing?”
I wonder which palace trusted girl heard about the investigation of Consort Shao just now, That girl must have pretended to be angry and told her master about this matter to her mother, and her mother broadcast another one or two. The women in the Nature Palace were all united in their hatred. Thinking about how she had always been difficult to conceive in recent years, it turned out that she had something to do with Consort Shao, so she went to the Cloud Phoenix Palace to prepare for the emperor to uphold justice.
‘”The Empress doesn’t want to quarrel with me. Concubines are indeed not good. Concubines naturally have to go in to let the Emperor uphold justice. How can I know that the fact that Concubines have not conceived in recent years is not due to this musk fragrance?” As she spoke, Ning Yanliu had already stepped on the threshold. Ning Yanliu’s heart was originally small, so she naturally couldn’t rub the sand in her eyes when she encountered such a thing.
Ji Zhu Hua was speechless for a long time, but he stopped Ning Yanliu. “Little sister Su Bin, stop messing around. She’s already dead. Even if she messed around, there’s no point. It makes the Emperor look as if he doesn’t know what’s going on. This is the Great Imperial Palace, not the streets. This palace can’t tolerate you guys running around like this.” At this point, Ji Zhuhua smiled again, “Besides, the Emperor is currently inside to congratulate Concubine Bu. Please come back, my sisters.”
Although Ning Yanliu wanted to enter, she still stamped her feet and said to the maidservant beside her, “Forget it, forget it, let’s go back.”
The Empress did not mind either. This Ning Yanliu was used to being domineering. It was only because her brother was a general in the court that the Empress was too lazy to pay attention to Ning Yanliu.
“Don’t go in. Even if you go in, the Emperor won’t see you. The so-called impermanence of the world is probably the same! Especially for us women. The fate of women is especially hard to say. If you can discover this matter earlier in the future, you should tell the Emperor earlier. Don’t make trouble today. Everyone is dead.” The Empress smiled coldly as she looked at the concubines behind her like she was speaking the Analects of Confucius.
Lan Zhaoyuan walked out of the crowd and walked to the empress’ side. “That’s also true. This concubine naturally won’t cause trouble. As long as the empress upholds justice, this concubine will also be very useful.”
The Empress smiled and said, “What the Emperor lacks is such a discerning person. This palace is very similar to Sister Zhaoyuan. It’s dark and blind. You should go back as soon as possible.” The Empress said sincerely.
Lan Sou Yu pulled Ji Zhu Hua’s sleeve and asked softly, “Your Majesty …”
“Don’t worry about the new beauty. Forget it, there’s no need for you to be afraid for the time being. This palace has a lot to do with you. When will you bring this palace to your father?” As Ji Zhuhua spoke, he waved his Scarlet Grass Yunyan’s wide-sleeved phoenix robe and smiled, “Pei Lan, follow me back.”
Only then did Lan Sou Yu secretly feel relieved. After two sentences from the Empress, she felt a sense of stability.
As Sha Ling returned, only Shun Fei shook her head fiercely, and then quietly walked away.
The Empress walked to the beehip bridge and looked back again and again, saying, “This palace has always chosen the right people. In the end, people like Bu Linglong are the blessings of the harem. They are different from those who only know how to be jealous and sour.”
Perrin couldn’t help but compliment the Empress with a few words, such as “Your Highness is far-sighted” …
