It is better to be an emperor than to fight in the palace

Chapter 13 Gong Du, too dirty
  "what!"

An extremely miserable roar came from Qingyuan Hall early in the morning.

I saw Yuan Qifeng hugging his pot of money oranges tightly, and the latter was obviously sluggish.

"Ah~Sister~, what happened this early in the morning? Oh~, isn't this my sister's favorite money orange? Why did it become like this? It seems like I won't survive.

Sister, couldn’t you have lost your mind yesterday and watered it with boiling water? Tsk tsk, it’s so pitiful, all the leaves have fallen off.”

Yuan Qifeng glared at her fiercely, without even thinking about it. Yesterday this woman moved in, and today the money orange that he had cultivated for a long time was brutally murdered. Yuan Qifeng could have thought of this without using his overly clever brain. Who is the instigator?

"Oh, by the way, the Empress Dowager is hosting a banquet tonight. I guess the communication from the Ministry of Internal Affairs has not reached my sister yet. My sister has gone to clean up first, so she won't be with her anymore. Sister, you'd better express your condolences~"

Ruan Lian took the maid and walked away proudly.

Yuan Qifeng looked at Chun'er who was also feeling heartbroken for Qian Jue who was about to die.

"It turns out this is a palace fight."

“It’s really dirty”

Yuan Qifeng couldn't accept it.

He can accept your constant provocations openly and openly, or he can accept all kinds of slanders and assassinations from you secretly.

But take a basin of innocent money and do it.

This palace fight is so dirty!

At this moment Yuan Qifeng became angry.

Gong Du, right? !
  Then see how I blow up this harem for you!

He and Chun'er buried Qian Jue who died in the palace fight. Yuan Qifeng flicked his sleeves and said, "I want to see the emperor."

Chun'er's face was full of helplessness. The young lady was so angry because of Ruan's promise that she forgot that she was still restrained.

Soon Yuan Qifeng also remembered this matter, walked to the door, and was about to speak to the guard.

"Jiang Changzai, we know you want to see His Majesty, but we really can't make the decision on this matter. His Majesty hasn't gone to court yet. Maybe he will come to Qingyuan Hall later to see if you are right. Just wait patiently. Wait a minute..."

The guard guarding the gate looked around nervously, while being rational and emotional, in case anyone without eyes would rush out and be beaten again.

But they paid attention to the outside and ignored the inside.

"Sister, do you want to go out? I heard that sister seems to have been grounded by the Holy One, right? I don't know what happened to make the Holy One so angry that he would confine such a great beauty to this corner of the world? Why don't you do it next time? I saw the Holy One begging for mercy for my sister, so that she can go out for a walk as soon as possible~"

The guards guarding the door had despair on their faces. As the saying goes, good words can hardly persuade someone who is looking for death.

Looking at Yuan Qifeng's skillful chokehold, "Good sister, since you are thinking about your sister, why not practice some skills with her first to solve the problem?"

At the door, several guards looked at the initials in their hands.

"Third brother, I've drawn you. Go and report it to the Holy One. The imperial concubine has said that from now on, Jiang Changzai will leave it to the Holy One to make a decision without going through her."

The one who was called Lao San had no choice but to show off the courage of a strong man and never return it and ran to the court to wait.

While waiting, I felt my life slowly disappearing.

Before the guard Jiang Chang was banned, he rarely saw the Holy Master but he was still separated by an unknown distance.

It's better now. Ever since Jiang Changzai was the caretaker, he has seen the Holy Emperor more often than he has seen his father.

It is said that being with a king is like being with a tiger. There is no guarantee that the saint will behead him one day when he becomes displeased with him.

The third child feels that today is such a day.

The conflict between Chang Zai and Yao Yao has actually been brought to court. If you were the emperor, you would have to give yourself a blow.

While he was thinking wildly, Liu Xu, the personal eunuch beside the emperor, appeared in front of him. "Are you responsible for guarding the Qingyuan Palace? Why are you here?"

"Eunuch Liu, it's like this, Jiang Chang is with her..."

Liu Xu was already used to Jiang Chang hitting this thing today and that thing tomorrow.

It would be strange if Jiang Changzai could hold back for three days and five days without hitting anyone.

Liu Xu sometimes couldn't help but sigh, Jiang Changzai and the Holy Master were really made for each other.

Liu Xu remembered that the Holy Emperor had such a temper back then. He was extremely rebellious among the princes. He would not reason with you at all and would do anything if you didn't accept it.

It was rare that he had calmed down recently. Unexpectedly, Jiang Changzai appeared again, exactly like the emperor when he was a teenager.

No wonder the emperor liked it so much.

Liu Xu couldn't help but have an expression of relief on his face, as if the young master had finally grown up.

The third child was stunned when he saw it.

"Eunuch Liu, when I came over, I heard Ruan Zhengxing shouting that the Queen Mother would support her. Look at this..."

"What?! Queen Mother?! You didn't say this earlier!"

Liu Xu reported urgently.

Jiang Simian hurriedly hurried but was still one step behind the Queen Mother.

By the time Jiang Simian arrived at the Qingyuan Hall, the Queen Mother sat upright and her entire face was as black as the bottom of a pot.

Yuan Qifeng stood aside arrogantly, while Ruan Lian knelt on the ground and burst into tears.

"The Queen Mother is here, what do you mean?"

Jiang Simian looked like he didn't know anything.

"Don't you know, Your Majesty? Ruan Lian was beaten up by Jiang Changzai just one day after she moved into Qingyuan Hall. If this spreads out, where will the Ai family's face be put?!"

"A beating?"

Jiang Simian looked at Ruan Lian pretending to be puzzled, "Ruan Ruan promised that she didn't seem to be injured in any way."

Ruan Lian was stunned and sobbed softly: "Your Majesty, Jiang promised to do it on purpose. She beat my concubine without leaving any traces, just to frame her..."

"Nonsense," Jiang Simian said with an unhappy expression, "Jiang Changzai is just a weak woman. There were quite a few people who had disputes with her in the past, and all of them had obvious injuries. How come there are no traces of being beaten when I come to your place?"

Saying this, Jiang Simian gave Yuan Qifeng an approving look when no one was paying attention. Good boy, you have learned to be smart and know not to leave any clues for the enemy.

Yuan Qifeng returned her arrogant expression.

It's just a palace fight, a side dish.

The slight expression between the two did not escape the eyes of the Queen Mother, who was staring at them closely.

Originally, it was just because Ruan Lian was beaten for speaking out, but it has been elevated to an issue of imperial power by the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother did not think that Jiang Chang Zai alone would dare to attack Ruan Lian. If it were not for the instigation and support of the Emperor, who would have the guts to go against the Queen Mother herself.

Now this issue is no longer an issue between Chang Zai and Yaosheng, but now it has escalated to a contest between the Queen Mother and the Emperor.

"I know Ruan Lian, she won't lie, so Jiang Changzai must be punished."

Just as Yuan Qifeng was about to refute, Jiang Simian pressed him down.

Looking at the Queen Mother, she said coldly: "I don't know when my harem became the Queen Mother's hall. In the future, after the Queen Mother has reorganized the harem, will she still be prepared to listen to politics behind the curtain and interfere in internal affairs?"
