The Virtuous Concubine of the Qing Dynasty

Chapter 79 The Talented Gentleman (1)

"So, it's not that I don't believe that she will do tricky things, I just think that she shouldn't be a stupid person." The emperor said in a deep voice, looking intently at the classics in his hand.

Listening to the emperor's words, Liang Jiugong didn't know whether to say something or not. According to his understanding of Jiaorong, if Jiaorong wanted to do such a thing, it might not be the two situations that the emperor called stupid. More likely, Jiaorong didn't think that the emperor was smart enough to see through her thoughts.

One thinks that the other party is too smart to do such a thing, and the other doesn't think that the other party is smart enough to see what she is doing. These two people really have a tacit understanding.

Liang Jiugong silently swallowed these words to his heart, not wanting to get involved in the messy affairs between the emperor and Jiaorong.A good emperor is already tired of dealing with those imperial relatives and powerful officials in the court, and now he has to use all his tactics to court a little court lady.From his point of view, it is enough to give Jiaorong a position directly with an imperial decree, and it will save the two people from fighting each other every day.Admittedly, though, the duo seem to be having a bit of fun themselves.

After a while, Liang Jiugong seemed to think of something, raised his head again, and said, "Your Majesty, there is one more thing. Ma Chang sent someone from the palace to deliver a message to the servant today, saying that the Emperor has not been to Zhong Cui for a long time. It's time for the palace, Ma Chang wants you to go and see the third prince when you have time."

Hearing this, the emperor didn't even raise his eyelids, and replied in a low voice: "I know."

Here in Chengqian Palace, Jiaorong woke up very late, the sky was dark, and there was no sound in the hall. Jiaorong found herself on the bed in the side hall, sat up slowly, stretched out her hand to caress her. Pain in the head.

Concubine Yi should have gone to bed at this time, Jiao Rong put on her shoes and got off the couch, recalling the incident of her poisoning, she coughed slightly, her throat felt a little dry and uncomfortable.She walked slowly to the entrance of the hall, intending to ask about the current situation.

But at the moment when she was about to push the door open, the door of the temple was suddenly opened from the outside. Due to the forward inertia, Jiaorong fell straight forward, and in the next second, she slammed straight into a tough man. chest.

A force firmly reached her lower back, Jiao Rong felt a warm touch beside her ear, and then a gentle and magnetic male voice came: "Be careful."

The sound made her ears burn, she quickly reached out and pushed the person in front of her, and looked at Xida's graceful figure facing the wind, with a bit of complaint on her face, but her voice sounded like a coquettish voice: "It's so late , what are you doing here?"

Xida just looked at her quietly, stepped over the threshold, and walked in step by step, without saying a word.Jiaorong felt strange and raised her eyebrows to look at him: "What's wrong with you?"

Soon, a second figure appeared outside the temple gate, but this time this figure was not as calm as Xida.Fulu couldn't rest for a moment, jumped up two steps, and showed his iconic smile to Jiaorong: "Okay, you, you can wake up so quickly after being poisoned? It seems that you need to add more doses next time." what."

"Why are you both here?" Jiao Rong raised her eyebrows suspiciously, and tilted her head slightly, not understanding what these two people were doing together.

Fu Lu curled his lips into a smile, and was about to answer, but before he could speak, a thin and small person walked in from outside, it was Yi Zhu: "That...and me..."

Jiao Rong's gaze shifted to Yi Zhu, and the puzzled expression on his face became more obvious.Xida slightly raised her eyes, glanced at the lucky shoes at the door, and said softly, "Close the door."

"Okay." Fu Lu responded quickly, and without a word, he closed the door of the side hall tightly.

Jiao Rong looked at the three people in front of her, feeling a little bewildered, and smiled slightly: "What are you guys doing? Have a celebration wine after the event is over?"

Fulu sat down on the wooden chair next to him without a formality, put his arms on the back of the chair, took off the hat on his head and put it down on the table, and said casually: "How many of us are you? I’ve come here specially to educate you, you bastard.”

"Educate me?" Jiaorong was at a loss when she heard that, she didn't quite understand what Fulu meant by "education", so she could only guess and ask, "Has what we did come to light?"

Yizhu seemed to be afraid that Jiaorong would be in a hurry, so he quickly waved his hands and said in a low voice: "No, no, Wang Dawei and Li Xuying have already been dealt with by the emperor, and we have successfully avenged Concubine Yi."

Jiaorong frowned, not understanding: "Then what are you guys doing? Look like you're here to settle accounts with me."

Fulu shook his head, glanced at Xida, and raised his chin: "Say it."

Xida leaned on the side table with her arms folded. Hearing the sound, she took a breath, looked at Jiaorong's blood-colored little face, and her voice was a little more serious than before: "We agree that this time we will help you What I did was just out of friendship, and we will definitely not help you do this kind of thing next time."

Hearing this, Jiao Rong frowned a little, and didn't realize the real meaning of Xida's words. She said in a deep voice, "What did I do? Are you blaming me now for wronging others? The thing is Jingyang Palace provoked them first, they should be punished for doing wrong things, if no one can punish them, I will punish them myself, that’s all, I don’t think there is anything wrong.”

Hearing this, several people looked at each other and sighed.Fulu covered his eyes with his hands, feeling very helpless: "You are really stubborn, we naturally don't think that what you did was wrong, we just want to deny your extreme approach."

In this regard, Jiaorong stared at Fulu and became silent, but her expression was still puzzled.

Xida accepted Fu Lu's words, and her voice softened: "The first time I scratched my skin, I almost lost too much blood. This time, I didn't hesitate to take poison. If the dose is wrong, it is even more dangerous. You can Paranoid to avenge others, but you should never use this way of hurting yourself again and again."

Yizhu nodded at the side, and said in a soft voice: "Yes, if Concubine Yi knows that you have sacrificed so much to avenge her, she will definitely blame herself to death."

Jiao Rong was left speechless by the three people's education in turn. It's not that she doesn't care about her body, but she just thinks that such sacrifices are directly proportional to the rewards she gets, and that's worth it.

Xida stared at her tender hair for a long time, and said in a calm voice, "You have been like this since you were a child, extreme, stubborn, ruthless to others, and even more cruel to yourself. But you have to understand that in this Forbidden City, everything you do should be done as you should." Think about yourself first, when you were in Yanxi Palace, you were extremely loyal to Yougui, and you were determined, but she is still using you after all, you can't deny it."
