The Queen of Destiny: The King's Side

In the study room of Zhangqing Palace, Yuwen Haoxuan frowned as he watched the reports from officials from all over the place.

Liu Maolin came to him quietly, as if he wanted to say something, but after seeing his frown, he only changed the cup of cold tea on the table, and stood silently aside.

"Tell me if you have anything to say." Yuwen Haoxuan still looked at the memorial in his hand and said, Liu Maolin had followed him for many years, and he could tell what his intention was with just one movement.

"Empress Zhaoyi summoned Miss Xi to Lanchi Palace."

"When did it happen?" Yuwen Haoxuan looked at Liu Maolin nervously.

"Just after the emperor and Xi Meiren separated in the morning."

Yuwen Haoxuan put down the memorial, got up and went to the window to look in the direction of Lanchi Palace.

"If your Majesty wants to, this servant can go and rescue Xi Mei for you." Sensing his uneasiness, Liu Maolin volunteered.

"No need." Yuwen Haoxuan subconsciously twisted his fingers, "If you can't handle this trivial matter, how will you survive in the palace in the future?"

"Ms. Zhaoyi is ruthless, and the servant is afraid..." Liu Maolin expressed his worry, but the following words were something that a servant should not say.

"Does Li Zhaoyuan know?"

"The servant saw Xi Meiren's dowry maid returning to Wanyun Palace alone, and Empress Zhaoyuan should know."

"Then nothing major will happen." Yuwen Haoxuan said and sat back at the table with peace of mind.

At the gate of Sumeng Pavilion, Xuechun waited anxiously and kept looking at the gate of the palace.

"Come in and wait." Fan Tao held Xue Chun who was walking back and forth, "A beauty like you won't come back early."

"Sister Fantao, what should I do? The princess hasn't come back yet." Xuechun said, crying anxiously.

"Xuechun, don't worry!" Fan Tao hugged Xuechun in his arms and comforted him, "Maybe it's Wang Zhaoyi who can chat with the beauty."

"Let's go find Mistress Zhaoyuan! The princess said that if she never comes back, let us go and beg Mistress Zhaoyuan." Xuechun seemed to have grasped the straw, turned around and was about to run out.

"Don't go yet!" Fan Tao grabbed the reckless Xuechun and said, "It's been less than an hour since the beauty left, we can't be so rash, if nothing happened, wouldn't it embarrass Lady Zhaoyuan? If it's lunch Shi Meiren hasn't come back yet, so it won't be too late for us to go find Empress Zhaoyuan again."

Xuechun looked at the sun, it was less than half an hour before lunch, so she made up her mind and continued to wait.

In Lanchi Palace, Wang Baoluo chatted more and more happily with everyone, as if he forgot Xi Xian who was standing beside him.

Xi Xian's hands holding the censer were trembling uncontrollably. The temperature on the surface of the censer had reached an unbearable level for ordinary people, but it was still rising.

Xi Xian bit her lower lip tightly, with tears in her eyes, she understood Wang Zhaoyi's vicious intentions, as long as she couldn't persist, she would find a reason for Wang Zhaoyi to punish her, so even if her hands were burned off, she must persist live.

Wang Baoluo picked up the teacup and took a sip, her mouth was dry after talking for a long time, but Xixian was still fine.

She glanced at Xiao Liangzi impatiently, Xiao Liangzi understood, stepped forward to take the teacup in her hand, and "accidentally" touched Xi Xian's red and swollen hands with her elbow when she was backing away.

The sudden pain made Xi Xian gasp, her trembling hands could no longer hold the hot incense burner, and with a 'bang' sound, the incense burner fell to the ground, and the gems inlaid on the burner body flew everywhere, and a few pieces The red hot coals fell on Wang Baoluo's gorgeous skirt.

"That's a token from the emperor when Empress Zhaoyi was sealed off!" After a short silence, someone shouted first, followed by voices of regret and blame.

The moment the censer landed on the ground, the corners of Wang Baoluo's mouth raised slightly imperceptibly, and then pretended to be shocked, held up the censer on the ground and said, "How could you drop the token that the emperor gave me? what kind of heart?"

"It's because there are too many charcoals in the incense burner, that's why the concubine didn't catch it." Xi Xian looked at Wang Baoluo stubbornly, this was clearly a well-planned trap, her self-esteem did not allow her to bow her head and beg for mercy.

"You mean that Bengong deliberately punished you?" Wang Baoluo smiled contemptuously.

"The concubine has no such intentions." Xi Xian replied unyieldingly with her head raised.

"Okay!" Wang Baoluo took two steps forward, stood in front of Xi Xian, hummed and laughed twice, and suddenly slapped him, Xi Xian fell to the ground covering her face, feeling a buzzing in her head, There was a fishy smell in his mouth, but he still stared at Wang Baoluo stubbornly.

"What? Don't you agree?" Wang Baoluo flicked his sleeves and returned to the main seat, and said, "I will beat you until you are convinced today."

The two maids listened to the order and stepped forward to hold down Xi Xian. Xiao Liangzi took out the stick that had been prepared, rolled up his cuffs and walked forward with a grinning grin.

Everyone's attention was focused on Xi Xian and Wang Baoluo, and no one noticed that a concubine near the door winked at the maid behind her, and the maid quietly exited the palace gate.

The stick hit Xi Xian on the back so hard that many palace people couldn't bear to watch, but instead of begging for mercy, she laughed provocatively.

Seeing Xi Xian's abnormal expression, even Wang Baoluo, who has always been fierce, couldn't help feeling terrified, and felt that Xi Xian would be a terrible opponent.

"Stop!" Wang Baoluo signaled Xiao Liangzi to stop, looked at Xi Xian who was spitting blood, and said, "You are really good, I want to see how long you can last, strip me naked and beat me." If she can't be conquered physically, then she will completely destroy the enemy mentally.

With Wang Baoluo's order, Xiao Liangzi immediately tore off Xixian's palace attire.

What a humiliation it is for a concubine to be stripped naked in public. Only a concubine who has an affair with an outsider will be subject to this criminal law.Xi Xian couldn't bear it no matter how strong she was, she struggled to resist and break free.

After some fighting, several palace people felt exhausted, Xi Xian seized the opportunity to break free from the restraint, and bumped headfirst into the wall pillar next to her, blood splattered all over immediately, stunned everyone in the palace.

The sudden change made Wang Baoluo stunned on the seat, and said with trembling lips, "Quick??? Take a look."

Xiao Liangzi bit the bullet and put his finger under Xi Xian's nose, then suddenly fell to the ground, looked at Wang Baoluo with a pale face and shook his head.

Wang Baoluo slumped on the seat. It was true that she wanted Xi Xian to die, but it did not mean that she was willing to bear the crime. Ning Guo didn't dare to pursue Jiang Guo because of his strength, but would the emperor let her go?

"It's none of my business, she ran into it herself." Wang Baoluo murmured to comfort herself, but everyone who looked at them bowed their heads in silence, and no one responded to her.

"A bunch of trash!" Wang Baoluo regained her usual majesty and said, "When it was beneficial, they scrambled to stick it on Bengong's body. What's the matter now? Are they all dumb!"

"Your Majesty, let's call the imperial physician first." The concubine near the door said weakly.

Wang Baoluo nodded, looked at Xiao Liangzi and said, "Go and invite an imperial doctor, be careful, don't disturb anyone."
