The concubine is so charming

Chapter 213 I Can't Help At Last
"The purpose of the New Year's Eve banquet is to pray for the stability of the country and the safety of the surroundings. Princess Rong's words of adding joy to happiness are not appropriate." Chu Feiyan said in a flat voice.

Many officials echoed it: "The prime minister is right. Worshiping to heaven and praying for blessings is the first priority of the new year. No matter what matters, we should discuss them later."

"Yes, the delay in offering sacrifices to the heavens and praying for blessings has affected the national destiny of the Da'an Dynasty. Who will bear the consequences? Princess Rong is too nonsense..."

Concubine Rong's heart trembled, she turned her head and noticed that King Rong was winking at her, so she could only hold back her urgency for the time being: "The matter is related to Ninghua, I was too eager for a while, please forgive me, Your Majesty."

Zhu Chong, the chief servant, bowed and reported: "Report to the emperor, the auspicious time has come."

The emperor frowned, and looked back coldly: "The sacrifice to heaven and blessings begins, and all the ministers will follow me to watch the ceremony outside the palace."

In the harem, without the constraints of the empress dowager, Concubine Zhen can be said to be the dominant family. In addition, the emperor has always favored him. This time, she will climb up and dance a neon clothes dance to start the ceremony. Day ceremony.

Same as last year, Su Yao and other female relatives are still not eligible to go out of the hall to watch, and can only kneel in the hall, waiting for the end of the blessing ceremony.

Su Yao knelt on the ground, turned to look at Princess Rong beside her, with a cold look in her eyes: "Today, my mother gave me a big gift. After returning home, I should also pay attention to it." Reciprocity is."

Princess Rong sneered: "They are both mother and daughter, so naturally I should do my best to consider for you."

Su Yao smiled, then lowered her head and said nothing.

The voices of the two were not loud, so no one else heard them.It's just that Mu Zhaoyu seemed to have a feeling, and turned his head to look this way several times.

The sound of silk and bamboo outside became more and more exciting, and Su Yao secretly thought it was a pity: I have heard Yufu said that Concubine Zhen's neon dress dance is the best in the world, but I have not been able to see it for two years since I came here. pity.

Just as he was engrossed in his thoughts, he suddenly heard a loud bang from outside, followed by bursts of exclamations!
"Escort!"

The imperial guards armed with full armor rushed forward, completely surrounding the entire front hall.

The Empress Dowager and others have already opened the palace door and returned to the main hall.

Su Yao got up, and followed the crowd to look towards the opened palace door, only to see that the location where the blessing platform was originally built was already a mess.

Concubine Zhen, who was dressed in plain clothes, fell to the ground with unknown injuries, while the high platform collapsed suddenly, puffs of smoke rose into the air, and the flames could be seen faintly.

The emperor who retreated into the hall turned pale, and quickly ordered the commander of the imperial guards: "Go and see how Concubine Zhen is doing?"

The high platform used for offering sacrifices to the heavens and praying for blessings has been checked repeatedly, for fear of any mistakes, but no one expected that Zhenfei's dance was in the middle of the excitement, but only a muffled thunder came from the sky, and then the high platform under her feet collapsed , Thick smoke and flames were everywhere, Zhenfei fell from the high platform and fell heavily to the ground.

The maid hurriedly carried Concubine Zhen into the hall. At this time, her snow-white dress was already stained with dust, and there were faint bloodstains oozing from the sleeves and skirt.

All the officials were silent like cicadas, and it was very unlucky to welcome red and blood on New Year's Eve!

The Empress Dowager looked serious: "Your Majesty, Aijia knows that you love Concubine Zhen, but you have also seen the situation just now. The thunder in winter and the collapse of the altar are really not auspicious omens. It is better to arrange Concubine Zhen to the side hall first, and then Please take care of the imperial physician carefully, make sure nothing will offend the emperor, and you can visit her again."

The emperor nodded, thinking of the situation just now, he still felt lingering fear, and if today's incident was spread out of the palace, how would the people of the world treat this scene that looked like a punishment from heaven: "Come here, arrange Concubine Zhen to a side hall."

"Your Majesty," said the courtier of the Taiyuan Hospital who was suddenly standing up, "I am looking at the situation of the concubine Zhen. Why does it look like a miscarriage? Please also allow the emperor to allow me to diagnose the pulse of the empress. This emperor's heir is very important. Don't be careless."

The emperor was stunned, and then his face became tense: "Why don't you quickly lift the soft couch, come and put Concubine Zhen on the soft couch, and let the imperial physician help you diagnose the pulse?"

"Yes."

The imperial concubine hurried forward, and after taking the pulse, his expression came to a sudden: "Your majesty, the concubine Zhen is indeed pregnant. It should be just two months old, but now she is seriously injured and her pulse is unstable. I'm afraid this child is not pregnant. Be sure..."

"Be sure to keep my child!" He thought that he had done too many mistakes, so that the heavens punished him, causing accidents to the prince one after another, and the only remaining seventh prince became stupid. Seeing that there was no hope, he He just summoned a son of the clan to enter the palace, if he has his own son, why bother so much?
At this moment, the commander of the imperial guard rushed over: "Report to the emperor, the fire on the high platform has been extinguished, but..."

"Just what?" The emperor looked impatient.

"Your Majesty, look..." the commander of the imperial guards said, motioning for the guards to lift a wooden board over, only to see that the wooden board was still full of smoke and fire. Scorch marks.

"This... this seems to be seal script..."

Someone murmured.

The emperor looked at Mr. Ning Ge: "Teacher, you have studied seal script quite well, can you tell the handwriting on the wooden board?"

Old Ning Ge stepped forward, and after careful consideration for a long while, he replied in a deep voice: "Monsters are bewildering the world, and the imperial power has changed hands."

The emperor's eyes were sharp: "Monsters are bewildering the world, and the imperial power has changed hands?"

An official couldn't help but knelt on the ground and exclaimed: "Your Majesty, the emperor's heir in the concubine Zhen's womb has just had an accident, and there has been a warning of this monster bewitching the world and changing hands of the imperial power. , implying that there are people in the court who have disrupted the court, so that our Da'an court will not rule the country."

"Your Majesty, this matter is no small matter. In order to reassure the people of the world, you should immediately issue an imperial edict..."

"emperor……"

The courtiers chattered.

Su Yao always felt that things would not be so simple. Those who could do something on the high platform used for worshiping heaven must not be underestimated. They must have planned such a scene painstakingly.

At this moment, there was a commotion outside the hall, and a guard rushed in: "Your Majesty, there are writings on the ground after the collapse of the high platform."

"What word?"

"The slave looks...it seems...it seems to be the name of Master Chu..." After the guard finished speaking, he knelt on the ground trembling with a plop.

As soon as these words came out, there was no sound in the originally noisy hall.I
Su Yao's eyes froze, sure enough, such a big gesture could only be aimed at Chu Feiyan!
So, who has such great ability and quietly planned all this behind the scenes?
Sensing Su Yao's worried expression, Chu Feiyan raised his eyes slightly, and gave her a comforting look without any trace.

Only then did Su Yao feel more settled.
