If you don’t cherish the love we wear quickly, why are you crying if you change your mind?

Chapter 453: The Abstinent Prime Minister vs. the Divorced Queen (18)

"Of course, I am the protagonist of this show." Jiang Miao lifted the hem of her skirt and stood up.

"However, it's time for other supporting characters to come on stage."

As soon as Jiang Miao entered the room, he smelled a strange fragrance and immediately held his breath. He turned around and knocked out the palace maid who was trying to close the door furtively.

She knew there was a man hiding inside.

The man who entered the room first had already lost his temper. He pounced on the woman when he saw her, and Jiang Miao knocked him unconscious with a knife.

She dragged the two fainted people behind a screen, then clapped her hands and left.

[Host, are you leaving now? ]
"Xiao 9, hush, wait and see the show."

At the New Year's Eve banquet, a palace servant suddenly ran in to report.

"Something terrible has happened! Your Majesty, Queen Mother!"

Chen Shaoyuan was already very irritable, and now being disturbed made him even angrier.

"What's the fuss about?"

The palace maid fell to her knees under the pressure of the emperor's majesty. "I saw the queen and a guard enter the room and they didn't come out for a long time."

Chen Shaoyuan threw the wine glass in his hand to the ground, and the glass shattered. "Nonsense!"

How could Jiang Miao betray him!

Even if all the women in the world betrayed him, Jiang Miao would never have an affair with another man behind his back!
That stupid woman is so stubborn. She wanted to be with him even though he killed her parents. How could it be possible?
The Queen Mother couldn't bear to see Jiang Miao doing well, and had long wanted to depose the Queen so that Zhiyi could take the throne.

She raised her eyes to look at Chen Shaoyuan, "Emperor, just go and take a look. If the Queen has been wrongly accused, it will be a good opportunity to clear her name."

All the concubines in the palace were silent. They had not yet gotten over the fact that Concubine Cui was pregnant, and now the Queen had to deal with such a shocking event. They couldn't help but sigh in their hearts.

If the queen is really deposed, then when Concubine Cui gives birth to a royal heir, the position of queen will belong to Concubine Cui.

The emperor glanced at the empty seat of the queen, frowned, and took his men with the little palace maid to find the queen.

As I approached the room, I heard the voices of a man and a woman talking.

Everyone stared with eyes wide open. They didn't expect that the queen was so bold as to do such a dirty thing under the emperor's nose.

Chen Shaoyuan was furious, "Someone, break open the door!"

With a "bang", the door was opened, and the people inside were Concubine Xu and the commander of the imperial guards, Huo Changling.

It's just that they were dressed neatly and had no physical contact, they were just standing together.

Seeing so many people, Xu Yunqi suppressed her restlessness and her eyes turned red. She looked at Chen Shaoyuan pitifully and said, "Your Majesty, I am just here to say a few words to General Huo."

Huo Changling's face was flushed, as if he was trying hard to hold back something.

He knelt on one knee and said, "Your Majesty, I happened to meet Concubine Xu while on patrol, so I had a few more words with her."

The two of them looked frank, but Chen Shaoyuan clenched his fists.

He knew that Huo Changling liked Xu Yunqi, and he used this to make Huo Changling loyal to him.

As for Yunqi, he was sure that she would not have any bad intentions in the past, but recently she always made trouble with him.
At the moment, since they haven't been caught in adultery, it's unrealistic to say that Huo Changling and Xu Yunqi didn't have anything going on. But if they were to be convicted of adultery, Huo Changling was his right-hand man and Xu Yunqi was his lover. For a moment, Chen Shaoyuan didn't know how to deal with these two people.

The Queen Mother noticed something and asked, "Where's the Queen?"

The palace maid who was kneeling on the ground stammered, and the next moment she was kicked to the ground by Chen Shaoyuan, "Where is the queen!"

"Your servant. Your servant." She doesn't know either!
Suddenly, a gentle voice came from behind the crowd.

"Your Majesty." Chen Shaoyuan pushed aside the person in front of him and saw Jiang Miao walking towards him in a lake blue dress that was elegant and noble.

"where did you go?"

Jiang Miao was puzzled. She glanced at everyone, her eyes passing over Xu Yunqi and Huo Changling, and finally said to Chen Shaoyuan: "My clothes were wet by the wine, so I went to change clothes. I also thought that Your Majesty didn't eat anything at the banquet, so I went to the kitchen to personally make your favorite Fuling cake for you."

Chen Shaoyuan stared at the food box in her hand and his heart suddenly started pounding.

It turned out that she noticed that she was in a bad mood and had lost her appetite.
Xu Yunqi looked at Jiang Miao in shock. She didn't understand why Jiang Miao was not in the room, but she was tricked into coming here!
Huo Changling was also deceived into this house. What should we do now? Will His Majesty believe that she is innocent?
Jiang Miao glanced at Xu Yunqi calmly, "Xu Jieyu, why are you staring at me? Do you think the red hairpin on my head looks good? I'll ask Zhiqing to send another set of headwear to Ningxiang Palace later."

Xu Yunqi felt humiliated again, in front of so many people. She clenched her handkerchief tightly, not daring to be angry or speak.

However, Huo Changling, who was standing next to her, looked away guiltily, not daring to look at Jiang Miao any longer.

Chen Shaoyuan pinched his brows and said, "Come here, behead this maid who framed the queen and show her to the public. Dismiss!"

The fact that he did not punish Xu Yunqi and Huo Changling in public did not mean that the suspicious emperor would give up.

Jiang Miao knew Chen Shaoyuan's character very well, so he just waited and watched the show, watching them fight each other, and was not in a hurry to use drastic measures.

The New Year's Eve in the palace ended in chaos. The concubines returned to the palace to rest, and Jiang Miao also returned to Weiyang Palace.

She didn't have time to deal with Chen Shaoyuan tonight, she had to go and keep watch with Wei Jinchu.

Compared to the bustling imperial palace, the prime minister's residence is quiet.

Wei Jinchu's parents had both passed away, and he and his grandmother were the only ones left in the huge prime minister's mansion.

After the New Year’s Eve dinner, the old man felt tired and went to rest early. Wei Jinchu rewarded Wei Yi and the others went to the study to work.

This was the practice in previous years. This year, he did not go to the study to work, but instead took the little snow fox to the hot spring warm room to drink and read.

He sat by a small red clay stove, where wine was warming and green-skinned tangerines, peanuts, red dates and other snacks were roasting on the charcoal rack.

When Jiang Miao's spirit returned to the little fox, he saw the scene of a handsome man lying on the couch.

He may have bathed, he did not wear a jade crown on his head, his long hair was only tied up with a moon-white cloud-patterned headband, his inner garment was slightly loose, his graceful muscles were vaguely visible, and below was a thin and tight waist.
"Awake?" Wei Jinchu put down the book and sat up. He took a roasted orange and peeled it while looking at her. "You slept for too long."

"Are you practicing?"

Jiang Miao rolled his eyes. Have you ever seen a vixen practicing by sleeping?

Oh, no, there are indeed people who practice by "sleeping"
Jiang Miao walked up to Wei Jinchu with graceful steps, then jumped into his arms.

Wei Jinchu held her tightly with his arms, "Stop making trouble. I'll peel an orange for you to eat."

Jiang Miao jumped out of his arms, his eyes swept across the table and fixed on the wine glass.

She leaned over and took a few quick sips of the drink. She didn't know what kind of wine it was, but it tasted pretty good.

She couldn't help but eat a few more bites, and when she looked up, she found Wei Jinchu looking at her.

"tasty?"

Wei Jinchu broke off a piece of orange and put it to her mouth, and Jiang Miao ate it in one bite with a "woosh".

"Oh~" The snow-white little paw pressed on the empty wine glass.

Wei Jinchu poured a glass of wine and placed it in front of her. His eyes were deep and his voice was a little bewitching. "What if you get drunk?"

Jiang Miao blinked. Didn't he forbid her to drink? Why did he look like he was trying to get her drunk?

Did he think he would become a human being if he got drunk?
