Harem Changwu Biography

Chapter 154 But I Only Have You in My Heart

Although Mingqi is often unsmiling when facing outsiders, in fact he seldom gets angry.

In this way, when Mingqi yelled angrily, all the people in the middle of the room at that time were shocked, and An Fulai and other eunuchs and maids were even more frightened to tremble.

"No." Although he was taken aback by Mingqi's anger, Xiao Yunzi replied immediately after regaining his senses, then turned around and walked out.

However, the atmosphere in the side room did not relax with Xiao Yunzi's departure. After Xiao Yunzi left, those who should be trembling were still trembling, and those who should have been white-faced were still white-faced.

If there is one exception at this time, it is me.

Although I was also taken aback by Mingqi's sudden anger, but after I regained my senses and recalled the reason for Mingqi's anger, I was only moved, moved by Mingqi to believe in me and defend me.

I was so moved that I turned my head to look at Mingqi, but I didn't make a sound to interrupt Mingqi.

And Ming Qi didn't finish after the angry shout just now, after Xiao Yunzi left, he aimed his firepower at Chang Ruo and Li Wan again.

"There is no evidence, just relying on one person's words and an inexplicable rumor to come to convict Concubine Shu. De Concubine, this is how you manage the harem?" Ming Qi looked at Li Wan and reprimanded.

"The concubine realizes her mistake, I beg the emperor to atone." Li Wan was kneeling on the ground, but at this moment, after she heard Mingqi's reprimand, she kowtowed to Mingqi again and again, pleading guilty.

"Concubine De, I think it's your first crime, so I won't punish you this time, but I will forgive you once." Ming Qi said to Li Wan.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, thank you, Your Majesty." After hearing that Ming Qi did not convict her of any crime, Li Wan replied gratefully to Ming Qi.

"However, the person in charge of the harem should be more cautious than others and be more discerning of right and wrong. You should be responsible for this matter first. In order to give others an explanation, this harem matter will be handed over to Shu Concubine after Concubine Shu has given birth to a child. Let the concubine take charge." Ming Qi said again.

After Li Wan heard Mingqi's words, the gratitude and joy on her face that had been raised because of Mingqi's refusal to sin immediately dissipated, and she immediately raised her head to look at Mingqi after hearing Mingqi's words. , with a white and unbelievable expression on his face.

"Your Majesty!" Li Wan called Ming Qi in disbelief.

"What? You don't want to?" After Li Wan called out, Ming Qi looked at Li Wan coldly and asked.

"No," Li Wan shook her head immediately under Ming Qi's cold gaze, and then saw her open her mouth and was about to speak, but she didn't want to be preempted by Chang Ruo at the side.

"Your majesty, the ministers and concubines are not convinced." Chang Ruo rushed to speak, and then raised his chest and looked at Mingqi, as if he was not afraid of Mingqi at all.

"Qiu Jieyu, are you dissatisfied?" After hearing Chang Ruo's words, Ming Qi snorted coldly, then turned to look at Chang Ruo.

"Going back to the emperor, that's exactly the case, the concubine refuses to accept." Chang Ruo said under Ming Qi's gaze, she looked at Ming Qi without the slightest fear, and her gaze had long since lost the affectionate look that Ming Qi had when he came in.

"Although the emperor doesn't believe in the affair between Concubine Shu and his ministers, as the saying goes, there are no waves without wind. If Concubine Shu and his ministers hadn't been arguing in front of each other, how could there be such rumors in the palace for no reason? What's more, there are witnesses to this matter " Chang Ruo said again.

"Besides, even if Concubine Shu is proved innocent in the end, Concubine Shu's charges cannot be cleared for the time being before the matter is clarified. In this way, if the emperor insists on ordering Concubine Shu to If the power of the harem is handed over to Concubine Shu, the concubine will not accept it." Chang Ruo continued, staring straight at Mingqi after speaking.

What Chang Ruo said was giving Ming Qi face at all, so as soon as her words fell, the other people in the room immediately shrank back, as if they were worried that Ming Qi would turn his anger on them because of his anger towards Chang Ruo.

And I, I also frowned after Chang Ruo's words, then I glanced at Chang Ruo, then at Mingqi, and finally didn't say anything.

On the contrary, it was Mingqi, who sneered after Chang Ruo's words.

"Qiu Jieyu, have you forgotten? This world belongs to me, and the harem also belongs to me. So, whoever I want to hand over the harem to is my freedom. I don't care whether you accept it or not." Sneer After a sound, Mingqi said to Changruo.

"But," Chang Ruo became even more dissatisfied after hearing Ming Qi's words, and wanted to speak again, but closed his mouth under Ming Qi's cold eyes.

"What's more, whether Concubine Shu is innocent, whether she is having an affair with foreign ministers, and whether the prince in Concubine Shu's stomach belongs to me, do you think that I don't even know this?" Ming Qi gave Chang Ruo a cold look. , and said.

And after Ming Qi finished speaking, he withdrew his eyes from Chang Ruo, raised his head, and then swept his eyes over the people in the side room one by one.

As a matter of course, when Mingqi glanced over those people, those people shrank a little behind them, as if they were afraid that Mingqi would anger them.

Among them, Li Wan, who originally had something to say because Ming Qi wanted to take back the power of the harem, lowered her head after what Ming Qi said to Chang Ruo just now, and she no longer wanted to speak anymore.

And now after she was glanced at, she lowered her head even more, not daring to look at Mingqi.

But Mingqi is naturally not someone who easily vents anger, so after he glanced at everyone in the side room, he opened his mouth amidst the fear of everyone.

"As for the fact that I asked Xiao Yunzi to find someone, to tell you the truth, I didn't ask someone to return Concubine Shu's innocence. I asked Xiao Yunzi to find someone, but I just wanted to tell you how wrong you are. She actually indiscriminately condemned Concubine Shu just based on the words of a slave, just to make you give up." Ming Qi said, and after speaking, he looked away from everyone and returned to Chang Ruo.

"As for you, Qiu Jieyu, I was too lazy to argue with you just now, so you think you are innocent? Do you think you can question my decision?" Ming Qi looked at Chang Ruo coldly and said.

"Qiu Jieyu, don't forget, just now you kept saying that Concubine Shu was disrespectful to Concubine De, but you didn't look at yourself. Concubine Shu is above you, but you slandered her with every word. Could it be that you did this?" , isn’t it an offense against Concubine Shu?” Ming Qi said again.

"And now, when I decreed to take back Concubine De's harem power and hand it over to Concubine Shu, you not only refused to listen to me, but even argued with me out loud. Isn't your behavior a crime against me? Isn't it disrespectful to disrespect, disrespect to me? Didn't take me seriously?" Ming Qi continued.

"Qiu Jieyu, do you know that if I really want to punish you, you will be the first one to be judged. Therefore, you are the last person who has the right to question my harem power." Ming Qi finally looked at the long If you say.

"I, Chen Qie," Chang Ruo blushed at Ming Qi's well-founded words, and then saw her open her mouth a few times, but she didn't say anything in the end.

And about a quarter of an hour after that, Xiao Yunzi who had left before came back.

And back with Xiao Yunzi, there is also Qi He, and a court lady who was escorted by Qi He and Xiao Yunzi at the same time.

It was a court lady who didn't look very old, she was wearing the palace attire of the lowest court lady, her face was vaguely familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen it before.

"Your Majesty, people have brought it here." Xiao Yunzi and Qihe said as they escorted the little maid to Mingqi.

The little maid's complexion was pale when she was escorted by Xiao Yunzi and the others before, but now that she was escorted by Xiao Yunzi and Qihe in front of Mingqi, her complexion was even paler than before, and she even trembled Shiveringly.

"Slave, slave girl has seen the emperor." The little maid knelt in front of Mingqi after Xiao Yunzi's words, but she unconsciously glanced at Chang Ruo Li Wan and the others.

And it was precisely because of this glance that Mingqi and I immediately frowned, and then looked at Chang Ruo and Li Wan at the same time.I even wondered in my heart, could it be that Changruo Li Wan and the others did this?Just to frame me?
Suspicion arose, so when Mingqi interrogated this little court lady, I paid full attention.

The final result of the trial was that this little palace lady was from the Shangyi Bureau. She came to my place yesterday to give me autumn clothes, saying that she saw a strange man in my Yanfu Palace at that time.

Because she didn't recognize Chu Lin, but she also knew that this strange man was not Ming Qi and Meng Qingcheng, so she felt very strange, so she talked about it with the other court ladies who worked together.

But later, I don't know how this matter got out, and in the end it turned out that I had an affair with another man, and the child was not Mingqi's.

After the incident got out, she knew that she had made a mistake, and she was terribly afraid, so she never dared to go out, let alone tell others that the incident came from her in the first place.

"Your Majesty, I know I was wrong. I really didn't do it on purpose. I didn't say that the child in Concubine Shu's womb wasn't your Majesty. I really don't have any. I beg the emperor to forgive me." Then he kowtowed to Mingqi on the ground to admit his mistake, and cried aloud at the same time.

I frowned after listening to the little maid's cry. I looked at her kneeling on the ground, kowtowing and crying to admit her mistake, and felt something was wrong: the little palace lady only said that she saw someone in my palace, but she didn't. He said who it was, not to mention that that person was Chu Lin, so why did Chang Ruo so swear that the person who had an affair with me was Chu Lin?

Furthermore, according to the little palace maid, she did not personally tell Li Wanchangruo and the others about this matter.In this way, who is the person who Li Wanchangruo said "someone saw it with his own eyes" and who is unwilling to tell their names for self-protection?Is it the little maid?If not the little maid, who should it be?
"Concubine De, is this little palace lady the person you said you saw with your own eyes?" Mingqi obviously thought of going with me, so when the little palace lady kowtowed to admit her mistake, Mingqi asked Li Wan.

"I, Chen Qie, no, not her." Li Wan replied stammeringly after Ming Qi's question.

"Who is that?" Ming Qi asked sharply.

"Yes, yes," Li Wan still seemed unwilling to say that person's name.

"Who is it?" Ming Qi's face turned cold when he saw this, he looked at Li Wan coldly and asked in a loud voice.

"It's a court lady named Ximei," Li Wan replied immediately after Ming Qi's shout.

"That's what this court lady said just now, the court lady who worked together. It was the maid of Ximei who told me that she heard about the matter between Concubine Shu and Lord Chu from this court lady, and she saw it with her own eyes. .” Li Wan said again.

And after listening to Li Wan's words, I felt amused and laughed.

So, this is the fault of the trio?
So no matter whether it is a rumor or the evidence of what Li Wan did to come to my Yanfu Palace to arrest people, it is all caused by rumors that are different from the truth?
Contrary to me, Mingqi's face turned completely dark after listening to Li Wan's words.

"Concubine De, you, okay, what a concubine De, you not only came to the door without evidence, but even the so-called witnesses you said at the beginning were just the truth from other people's mouths, and you didn't even check the so-called witnesses. I just believe the truth, it turns out that you are in charge of the harem like this." Ming Qi said to Li Wan with a dark face after Li Wan's words, exuding a strong sense of coldness from his body.

"Your Majesty, it was the concubine who made a mistake. The concubine is guilty, please punish me." After Ming Qi's words, Li Wan kowtowed again and again to plead guilty.

Mingqi, who had previously said that he wanted to exonerate Li Wan from the charges, finally became angry again after hearing the words of the little palace lady, and dropped Li Wan's position from Concubine De to Cai Nu at the beginning.

Even what I said before, that the power of the harem would not be given to me until after I gave birth, this time it was taken back immediately, and Qi He and Fang Hao were asked to assist me in managing it first.

Like Li Wan, Chang Ruo was also punished, but this time instead of demoting her concubine position, she was directly fined and grounded for half a year.

"Concubine De, you have disappointed me too much." After the punishment of Li Wan and Chang Ruo was announced, Ming Qi looked at Li Wan and said, with an expression of disappointment that was not concealed at all.

When Li Wan was stared at by Ming Qi in such disappointment, her body froze immediately, and then she fell on the ground for a long time: "The concubine is wrong!"

After the punishment measures came down, Mingqi let Li Wan and the people they brought go down, and at the same time drove Qi Hefang and them out together, so after less than half an hour, only me and me were left in the whole room. Mingqi two people.

"Mingqi!" After everyone retreated, I called out Mingqi.

Mingqi turned her head amidst my shouts, but she didn't speak, but looked at me with a frown, the coldness in her eyes didn't fade away.

"Mingqi, there is nothing between me and Chu Lin." I said under Mingqi's cold eyes.

I don't want Mingqi to have a misunderstanding with me because of Chu Lin, so after saying this sentence, I told Mingqi that the reason why I was engaged to Chu Lin back then was because I was afraid of entering the palace at that time to avoid him. He has no affection for Chu Lin.

After talking about all this, I told Mingqi the purpose of Chu Lin's coming to my Yanfu Palace this time, and told Mingqi that Chu Lin came to me this time to say goodbye to me, and he wanted to apply to Mingqi Go abroad to be an official.

Mingqi didn't bother me when I was explaining, and he didn't come to talk to me immediately after I finished explaining. He was still looking at me coldly, and it took him a long time to hear him speak.

"But, he likes you." Ming Qi said.

But I was stunned when I heard the words, and then said: "But I only have you in my heart, and I don't want anyone but you."

"Mingqi, if you really mind, then you can approve Chu Lin's request to allow him to be an official in other places, and keep him away from me." After I finished speaking, I said again.

And Mingqi was silent again after I finished my words, and then looked at me for a while, and then said: "Qiu Changwu, you'd better remember that you are my woman, and you have no one but me." Don't think about it."

"it is good."
