The Emperor's Favorite: The Beauty Disturbs the World

Chapter 74 The Unexpected Incident

When Concubine Hua heard Liu Meiren teasing her precious son so much, her fair face turned red, and she didn't know whether it was due to anger or shame.

Concubine Li picked up the teacup, took a sip, wiped her mouth lightly with a handkerchief, and said with a smile: "Sister Concubine Hua often teaches Cong'er? Why do you still do these things?"

Meiren Liu chuckled, and interjected: "I'm afraid Cong'er is getting old and thinking too hard, so please ask the empress to make a marriage for him as soon as possible!
The queen smiled slightly, without denying it.

Concubine Hua listened to Concubine Li and Concubine Liu teasing her mother and son, and reluctantly explained: "What kind of affair is it? Ying Er!"

Liu Mei said: "Speaking of Ying'er, I saw him reciting books by the Longchi a few days ago, he worked very hard."

Concubine Li smiled slightly and said: "This Palace has nothing to offer! My family background is humble, and it is not as prudent and virtuous as all the elder sisters. Only this son can win some glory for this Palace!"

"Huh!" Concubine Hua snorted in a low voice, and cursed inwardly: Show off your smell!
The queen straightened her pleated skirt, and said calmly: "Sister Li Concubine is still good at teaching children."

Concubine Li was just about to ridicule Hua Concubine a few more words about this matter, but she heard the little yellow door outside the door shouting: "Huangfu Xianyi is here!"

"Why is my sister here? How many times have I told you that you are pregnant, so these etiquettes will be waived!" The queen moved lightly, and went to pick her up at the gate of the hall in person.

Feng Lu dragged her heavy body, and the maid next to her wiped her sweat, and said with a smile, "Your Majesty is the mother of a country. If my sister doesn't come, I always feel uneasy. Besides, walking around, my concubine will sleep at night." Sweet, I think it will be more beneficial for the dragon heir in my belly!" As she spoke, she struggled and slowly sat on the seat that Chang Xi specially set up for her.

At this time, Huangfu Xianyi should have known about Ju Xiang's failure to return all night. If she really ordered Ju Xiang to destroy the evidence, then she should be worried at this moment, but seeing her face, she seemed to be fine.

Seeing her swollen belly, the queen instructed, "You have to be careful in everything. Your Majesty values ​​your fetus very much. Besides, Concubine Shu's younger sister has just lost a child. Don't mention that Your Majesty is depressed. I hope you can give birth to Lin'er as soon as possible. Make Your Majesty Longyan happy!"

Feng Lu nodded and said with a smile: "I hope so, thanks to my mother's auspicious words."

Concubine Hua saw that Fenglu had a big belly and was struggling to move, so she said, "Did Eunuch Gao go to my sister's palace to search for the palace last night!"

"Search the palace?!" Feng Lu's eyelids twitched in fright, and hurriedly said: "The concubine always abides by the palace rules, why did Eunuch Gao come to search the palace?"

The queen quickly comforted her and said, "It has nothing to do with you, it's just a routine inspection! Don't take it to heart."

Concubine Hua said earnestly: "Sure enough, my sister is the most honorable. Eunuch Gao even searched the queen's bedroom, but he didn't dare to disturb my sister."

The queen immediately lowered her face when she heard her words so indifferent, and said: "Eunuch Gao is also thinking about your majesty's dragon heir, what Concubine Hua said is really damaging the face of the first palace lord, don't say such things in the future !"

Concubine Hua was reprimanded by the queen in public, and she couldn't hold back, but she had to make a promise.

The concubines were chatting about the emperor's heir in Fenglu's belly, while Chang Xi was worried that little Zhao Zi had taken the hairpin for inspection while Li Longji and Meier were washing this morning, and he didn't know the result at this moment!
Just thinking about it, at some point, Li Longji walked in from the outside.

Seeing Li Longji approaching, the queen hurriedly said long live with all the concubines, and arranged a warm and comfortable place for Li Longji to sit beside her. Accompanying her here, what are you doing here as a concubine?"

Li Longji sighed and said: "This little girl is crying and wiping away her tears all day long. No matter how much I persuade you, it won't work. She sat on the couch and cried for a while this morning. Seeing that she was not feeling well, she couldn't come to greet you. Tell me to come and take a leave of absence for her."

Yu Zhaorong said with a slight smile: "Sister Concubine Shu is still loved by His Majesty, if it were us, how dare you order Your Majesty!"

Li Longji smiled slightly when she heard her teasing himself.

Looking around, seeing Gao Lishi looking for him, he asked aloud: "Is there any result from the palace search last night?"

Gao Lishi told Li Longji about the general situation last night, and Li Longji looked at Concubine Hua, and said in a deep voice, "Cong'er is becoming more and more outrageous! It's hard for me to study, and I'm making these obscene things in the palace. For her mother and concubine, she should teach her well!"

Concubine Hua hurriedly got up from her seat, knelt down and said, "It's my concubine's fault, please forgive me, Your Majesty!"

Li Longji said: "I am worried about Concubine Shu in my heart, so I don't care about you for now, you should learn more from Concubine Li and see how she teaches Ying'er!"

Li Fei listened to Li Longji's praise of her, showing the same charming smile as before.

Li Longji hadn't seen her smile so beautifully for a long time, and the depression in his heart dispelled a lot, so he said: "A few days ago, I inspected Ying'er's homework! He is the smartest of all my sons, go back and do a good job for me Reward him!"

"No!" Li Fei responded sweetly.

Li Longji stopped talking about the prince, and said to Gao Lishi: "There is no result in the search of the palace, and nothing is found in other places?" As he spoke, he gently beat the foam in the teacup with the tea cover, his voice was neither salty nor weak.

Gao Lishi wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said: "This is some clues!"

The queen was delighted to hear that there was a clue about Meier's miscarriage, and hurriedly asked, "What clues?"

Gao Lishi took a peek at Huangfu Xianyi, heartbroken, and told everything about Juxiang last night!

After hearing this, Huangfu Xianyi said furiously: "This bold girl! When I was pregnant and didn't have the time to look after the palace, she secretly sold the things in the palace. Your Majesty—you must punish her severely!"

Li Longji hummed and said: "It's none of your business, don't be angry with these slaves, be careful!"

"Your Majesty! The slave has something to report!" Little Zhao Zi hurriedly entered the Kunde Hall holding the eight-treasure glazed hairpin that Huangfu Xianyi gave to Concubine Shu.

"What's the matter, father-in-law?" Concubine Hua asked curiously when she saw that he was walking in a hurry.

Little Zhao Zi saluted, and then said: "The servant felt that what happened to Ju Xiang last night was very suspicious, so this morning, he boldly took out the eight-treasure glazed hairpin that Huangfu Xianyi gave to Concubine Shu for inspection, how would you know? ...Qu Shanggong said...that it contains a lot of musk!" After speaking, he lowered his head, not daring to look into Li Longji's eyes.

"This is impossible!" Huangfu Xianyi stood up and screamed after hearing Xiao Zhaozi's report.

Everyone was shocked and speechless by this sudden incident.

Concubine Li said: "Sister Fenglu has always been humble and obedient, she treats the sisters in all palaces as brothers and sisters, and she is even more caring for Mei'er who was born in Jiaofangsi. This concubine never believes that she would do such a thing!"

Concubine Hua said: "That's not necessarily true! If you're kind in person, who knows what's going on behind the scenes!"
