The emperor's scheming: alluring the world

Chapter 190
"Let's get back down without courtesy!" Li Sister-in-law said kindly to the servant, and then led Qing'er into the main hall of the central palace.

"Greetings to the Empress." Bowing down to pay respects to Yang Xianling, Li Sister-in-law straightened up and glanced at the young lords of the palaces sitting, a sneering smile appeared on the corners of her lips. Can't wait to call her here, showing off her queen's airs, it's really stupid.

Yang Xianling sat high above her. The feeling of Li Meiying saluting to her made her feel vain, but her eyes inadvertently touched the sneer at the corner of her lips, and she shuddered immediately, and quickly put it away. With that little thoughtfulness, she got up and warmly greeted Li Sister-in-law, saying: "I heard that the princess is visiting the imperial concubine today, I really miss the princess, so I sent someone to invite the princess, I hope the princess will not be surprised."

The corners of her lips curled up into a beautiful arc, and Li Sister-in-law replied in coordination: "The empress has entered the central palace, and this palace is supposed to come to pay her respects. I hope the empress is not to blame for the late arrival of greetings."

"You and I grew up together, so don't be so polite." Patting Li Sister-in-law's hand, Yang Xianling turned her head and said to the female official beside her, "Quickly set up a seat for Princess Yao Huang."

The female official hurriedly ordered the maid to move a big mahogany chair and put it next to the phoenix seat. Yang Xianling pulled Li Meiying to sit down. At this time, the young masters of the palaces hurriedly got up and saluted Li Meiying: "To Princess Yao Huang." Greetings, Princess Hail."

"Let's all be free from the ceremony!" Li Sister accepted the ceremony calmly, and then said to Yang Xianling with a smile: "Empress Empress, I'm afraid I'm here at the wrong time, you should be admonishing me right now!"

As soon as Li Meiying said this, Tao Guiren, the lady of Concubine Shu's natal family, hurriedly said: "No, there is another Yancai girl who has not arrived. The empress is generous and generous, and she has never been late for Yancai girl. When I get to the bottom of it, it's just that Yancai's empress is easy to bully, please An is still late."

"Ah, Yancai girl!" Li Meiying exclaimed when she heard the words, and said to Yang Xianling with a shocked expression: "On the way to the middle palace, I just met a concubine. She gave way, but Ben Gong saw that she was only from the seventh rank, so she didn't respond, who knew that she ordered her servants to block Ben Gong's way, and in a fit of anger, Ben Gong let the maid around her slap her twice, and ordered her to walk on her knees When you come to the Central Palace, you must know that this Yancai girl is deeply favored, and I should save some face for her, the Emperor will feel sorry for her now."

After listening to Li Meiying's words, Yang Xianling suddenly felt relieved, and at the same time, there was a voice screaming in her heart, hoping that Li Meiying would suffer bad luck and never be liked by Wei Jinyang again.

What was also shocking were the young lords who were present, they didn't expect Li Sister-in-law to be so bold, directly skipping over the queen to punish Yan Cainu, this behavior is really arrogant!

After a while, Yang Xianling said: "Just now, I was puzzled, why didn't I see Yunyu serving by your side, presumably you left Yunyu to supervise Yancai girl?"

"The Empress guessed it right. If no one is left to watch, who knows whether she came here on her knees or on foot?" Li Sister-in-law answered disapprovingly.

Hearing this, Yang Xianling showed embarrassment on her face and pleaded for Yan Cainu: "Princess, is it too strict to come to the middle palace on knees? If the emperor knows about this, I can't explain it to the emperor!"

Li Meiying heard the words, she was unmoved and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, the emperor will take care of it."

Li Sister-in-law had just finished speaking when An Fu hurried over from outside the hall. He bowed to everyone, and then said to Yang Xianling: "Empress, the emperor already knew about the punishment of Yancai girl by Princess Yao Huang. Let the slaves come and tell the empress that there is no rule, and there is no dignity in Yancai's eyes, the empress should deal with this matter fairly."

"My palace knows, please please Eunuch An to report back to the emperor, and ask him to rest assured that the affairs of the harem will be handled properly by the palace." Seeing that Wei Jinyang did not intend to protect Yan Cainu, Yang Xianling was even more happy.

An Fu bowed and then left the Central Palace. Li Sister-in-law waited for An Fu to leave, so she hesitated and said to Yang Xianling: "Empress Empress, I punished Yancai too much on impulse just now. Now the emperor has sent Someone said, please ask the Empress to send someone to pick up Yancai girl to the central palace!"

How could Yang Xianling let go of such a good opportunity to humiliate Yancai girl and give herself a prestige? She didn't think about Li Meiying's pleading, but said embarrassingly: "The emperor specially sent Mr. An to deliver a message. If I want my palace to handle it impartially, how can I disobey the emperor's wishes, the princess should stop pleading for Yancai girl, the emperor agrees with this matter, and I will definitely not blame the princess afterwards, so don't worry, the princess will."

Seeing the uneasy expression on Li Meiying's beautiful face, Yang Xianling felt even more elated. At this time, if she wanted to beg for mercy and be a good person, it would be too late to restore her image as a fairy in the emperor's mind.

Li Sister opened her mouth when she heard the words, but finally said nothing.And the discerning young masters of the palaces at the side all understood Li Meiying's intentions in reminding her kindly, but the queen empress did not appreciate her kindness.

After waiting for another half an hour, Yan Cainu finally came to the central palace on knees. Yang Xianling was quite smart and didn't make things difficult, so she ordered someone to help Yancai Nu and gave her a seat.

After Yan Cainv regained her strength, Yang Xianling said, "Yan Cainv, you are convinced by Princess Yao Huang's punishment for you today!"

After learning Li Meiying's tricks, even though Yan Cainu gritted her teeth with hatred in her heart, she didn't dare to show it on her face, she just said with a very respectful expression: "I am concubine, everything is my concubine's fault. , Princess Yaohuang is right to punish you."

Hearing this, Yang Xianling took Li Sister-in-law's hand, and warned the young lords of the palaces: "My sisters sitting here, listen, Princess Yao Huang is a golden branch and jade leaf, and the body of a phoenix. Who dares to treat Princess Yao Huang in the future?" If you are disrespectful, I will definitely punish you severely."

After listening to Yang Xianling's words, Li Sister-in-law's smile remained unchanged: "Thank you, Empress, for your love, but I have my own princess mansion outside the palace, so it's not the people in this harem. Well, I punished myself, the queen empress is kind and generous, and she is tolerant towards the young masters of the palace, and this palace can make the empress empress lose the harmony with the young masters of the palace because of this palace!"

Yang Xianling originally wanted to use Li Sister-in-law to warn the young masters of the palaces, and to be more polite in the future. Don't treat her as a queen as a queen. Who would have thought that Li Sister-in-law would say such a thing, and it would seem that she is meddling in her own business , the smile on her face could hardly hold, and finally she still smiled stiffly and said: "Princess's words are wrong. If you have been wronged in the harem, as the lord of the harem, I will naturally seek justice for the princess."
