The Virtuous Concubine of the Qing Dynasty

Chapter 69 Little tricks (3)

Hearing this, Jiaorong couldn't help showing a smile, Xida was indeed always able to guess her little thoughts.Jiao Rong is indeed not someone who likes to accept what is offered at the first sight. She is also an ambitious person in a sense, but she wants to be different from ordinary people.

Ordinary people want money and power, so they have ambitions.And Jiaorong has been seeking equal value from beginning to end. This value does not refer to human rights, but under the strict laws of the emperor, she will not be convicted of unknown crimes, and others will not be covered up.

Li Guiren was poisoned, no matter how much they complained, it would be useless in front of the emperor. In order to pursue the ridiculous equality in Jiaorong's heart that others saw, Jiaorong was completely ruthless.

Yizhu looked innocent, and didn't understand what Jiaorong and Xida said. She was about to ask again when Liang Jiugong walked in from outside the hall.Liang Jiugong was taken aback when he saw that the three of them seemed to be chatting, "Miss Jiaorong? Are you awake?"

As he spoke, Liang Jiugong walked up to Jiaorong, his voice a little softer: "The eunuch standing guard at the side hall is really neglectful, Miss Jiaorong didn't know to call when she woke up."

Seeing Liang Jiugong, Jiaorong nodded politely, "Eunuch Liang, I will go back to Chengqian Palace after I tidy up, you don't have to worry."

"Hey, don't." Liang Jiugong was also taken aback, he hurriedly stopped Jiaorong from packing up his clothes, "Don't worry, I just came to pass a message, the emperor asked you to go to the main hall after you wake up, he has something to do looking for you."

"Looking for me?" Jiaorong frowned fiercely, completely unprepared, "Why is the emperor looking for me?"

"I don't know about this." Liang Jiugong shrugged, and then said: "Since Miss Jiaorong is awake now, let's go earlier, so that I can return to Chengqian Palace to rest earlier, otherwise if it is too late, Concubine Yi Empress should be worried."

Hearing this, Jiao Rong sensiblely said "Okay", lifted the quilt and got down to put on shoes.According to Concubine Yi's temperament, she would indeed be worried about her, so it's better to get it over with sooner.Xida, who was behind him, watched Jiaorong walk out of the side hall, his eyes gradually became deep, making it impossible to see to the bottom at a glance.

At this time, the emperor was reviewing the memorial in the main hall, concentrating on changing the content on it, and only slightly raised his head to glance at Liang Jiugong when he heard footsteps coming from the hall.Liang Jiugong brought Jiaorong behind him forward, bowed and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, Miss Jiaorong is here."

"En." The emperor responded softly, and then said in a deep voice, "You go out first."

"Yes." Liang Jiugong had no objection, turned around and glanced at Jiaorong, and left the main hall directly.

Then there were only two people left in the back hall. I have experienced this scene many times in my impression, so that this time she was much calmer than usual. Rest well, thank the emperor for sending someone to take care of me, it's getting late, and it's time for the servants to return to Qian Palace."

Hearing this, the emperor slowly put down the folder in his hand, looked at Jiao Rong and snorted sullenly, "You are self-conscious enough, thank you and leave, do you really think that the Qing Palace is something you can come in and out of at will? "

Jiaorong never raised her head, nor did she return to the emperor's words, her expression was cold and ruthless.The emperor was naturally used to seeing her expression, so he didn't reprimand him any more, he stood up and looked down at the girl below, and said deeply: "Do you really think that I can't see any of your little tricks?"

The moment she heard these words, Jiaorong's body stiffened a little, her pupils trembled, she raised her head in disbelief, and looked straight into the emperor's eyes, but compared to her shock, the emperor's eyes were more flat many.

"I really underestimated you. In order to pretend to be bleak, I can be so cruel to myself. If I didn't allow the doctor Sun to give you the best medicine, you, who are thin and tender, will have to stay An ugly scar." The emperor said in a low voice, and the expressions in his words were quite casual.

"Since the emperor has seen through it, why do you want to help the servant girl? The servant girl committed the crime of deceiving the emperor." Jiaorong pursed her lips unhappily, and her tone was somewhat broken.

"Oh? Have you deceived the emperor? I thought you were telling me on purpose because of your obvious means." When the emperor said this, there was a bit of yin and yang, as if he was mocking Jiaorong's way of being too easy to be seen.

Jiaorong was very annoyed at being forced by him, frowned and said coldly: "If the emperor sees the tricks of the servant, he can directly condemn the servant, and there is no need to sneer here."

The emperor seems to enjoy the process of irritating the hair, like a little wild cat that is easy to blow up, the less it cares about people on weekdays, the more you want to see how it looks like when it blows up.

After achieving the goal, the emperor snorted, stopped talking nonsense, and said softly: "I have punished two concubines from powerful families for you, and they have done this. How can I still convict you?"

Although Yi Zhu had already said it just now, Jiao Rong's heart skipped a beat when she heard the emperor say "for you".This is really too appalling, the emperor will always treat her differently from ordinary people, this point Jiao Rong has always felt, but this time this feeling is stronger, so strong that she can't stand it.

"Your Majesty didn't have to do this." Jiao Rong's voice was still cold, acting very unkind, as if reminding the Emperor that as a king, he should not have thoughts about a lowly court lady.

Regarding this, the emperor sighed slightly, staring at Jiaorong's indifferent and beautiful face, said softly: "As long as you can be more obedient, I really don't have to do these things."

Immediately, the emperor raised his eyebrows, and casually threw the jade pendant in his hand onto the table, "Tell me, why do you want to punish Li Changzai?"

Hearing this, Jiaorong bit her lower lip, remained silent for a while, and said calmly: "Personal grievances."

"Personal grievances?" The emperor's tone was provocative, he nodded his head twice with half understanding, and when he raised his eyes again, he narrowed his eyes slightly, and asked tentatively, "Is it for Concubine Yi?"

Jiao Rong's face was full of reluctance, she didn't want to lie, so she stopped talking, her face was cold and lifeless, and she looked like she was letting you down.

"What I'm more curious about is that there are many people in the palace who look down on Concubine Yi and deliberately make things difficult for her, so why did they choose Li Changzai?" The emperor's words were always very relaxed, as if he was telling Jiaorong intentionally or unintentionally, that this is not a big deal Don't be tense and restrained.

The corners of Jiaorong's brows were tightly frowned, and after a long time, her thin lips moved slightly: "Your Majesty, you don't need to ask, slaves won't tell."
