Empress Jinghua: The eunuch is nine thousand years old

Chapter 86: Backwater
Concubine Yue saw Yue Jing'an's hypocrisy, and her heart trembled angrily. Ming Shengdi already had no doubts about her poisoning Yue Jing'an.

"Your majesty... my concubine has served you for so many years, why don't you believe in my concubine..." Concubine Yue knelt down and wept, restraining all her domineering and arrogance in the past, stretching out her hand to lightly tug on the hem of Ming Shengdi's dragon robe, Like weeping like complaining.

Ming Shengdi couldn't listen to Concubine Yue's appeal at this moment, supported Yue Jing'an's frail body that was about to fall, ruthlessly shook off Concubine Yue's crying, and said coldly: "Come, pass on my will, Concubine Noble Virtue is jealous, and he bribed the people of Yuehua Palace to poison and harm Concubine Lian without permission. I am grateful for her service for many years, and I keep the title of concubine, and her salary is halved for three years. I go to the Buddhist hall to pray for Concubine Lian every day , plead guilty for two hours on your own, other than that, you are not allowed to step out of Yikun Palace. As for the palace maid Liuer, I will give you death! There must be no mistakes!"

Concubine Yue was kneeling down, her eyes were full of sadness. Although Ming Shengdi did not deprive her of the title of noble concubine, her status in Ming Shengdi's heart had plummeted.

She raised her eyes and looked at Yue Jing'an who was leaning against Ming Shengdi's embrace, she gritted her teeth and clenched her fists, what a shame and humiliation it was to go to the Buddhist hall to pray for Yue Jing'an for two hours every day!But Ming Shengdi Jun is not joking, even if she is really wronged, what can she do, she can only knock out her teeth and swallow her blood.

"The concubine obeys..." Concubine Yue stared at Yue Jing'an resentfully, and her already deep eyes became more resentful. She will avenge this revenge sooner or later!
It was half an hour after Concubine Lian was sent back to Yuehua Palace by Emperor Ming, she got off the sedan chair and was supported by Emperor Ming himself into the house, and Emperor Ming helped her into the inner hall. Covering her with a brocade quilt carefully, there was tenderness in his eyes.

"Jing'an, you should take a good rest. I have gone back to the Qianqing Palace to do business, and I will come to see you another day. I have also explained to the imperial physician of the hospital, and I will come here for consultation every day. Fortunately, the poisoning is not deep yet. I need to recuperate for a few more months. There is no serious problem." Ming Shengdi stood in front of the window, stroking Yue Jing'an's temples and said.

"My concubine, thank the emperor for his grace!" Yue Jing'an leaned back on the long pillow, slightly leaned forward to salute Ming Shengdi, her complexion was still pale and weak.

Ming Shengdi nodded, patted her on the shoulder and walked away. To him, this was already the greatest love for Yue Yue Jing'an.

"The emperor drives!"

Following Xiao Xiazi's yelling, the footsteps of the palace servants carrying the sedan chair and the footsteps of the attendants gradually faded away.

The gentle look on Yue Jing'an's face disappeared, she lifted the brocade quilt and got up from the bed, walked to the side of the bed and looked at Ming Shengdi's figure who was surrounded by the palace people and left with a sneer.

"Your Majesty, the emperor is too unfair. Concubine Yue committed the serious crime of poisoning and killing concubines. How can she be punished with a little salary, and then go to the Buddhist hall to pretend to be like this? Even the title of concubine has not been shaken." Half a point, I really blinded my mother for nothing, thanks to my hard work in planning!" Xiao Zhu stood behind Yue Jing'an, quite indignantly.

Although both she and Yue Jing'an knew that Concubine Yue was framed by them this time, the punishment of Emperor Ming Sheng was too innocuous.

Yue Jing closed the broken hair that fell from her forehead to her eyes, and there was nothing but coldness in her eyes.

"He was originally such a cold-hearted person. Shui Yanran's father is the Taifu. Now it is the time when the whole country is conducting imperial examinations and military examinations. The role of the Taifu is very important. How could he be so ignorant because of this palace? The powerful concubine of the former court severely punished Shui Yanran at this critical juncture."

The love and pity that Emperor Ming Sheng said was based on the fact that it did not involve the interests of the imperial court.

"If Shui Yanran's imperial concubine title is deprived, the Grand Tutor will definitely not give up. It will not be easy for Shengdi Jie Shiming to stabilize the hearts of veterans."

Xiaozhu nodded half-understood, but still a bit unwilling, sighed and said: "If we had known this, we would have acted later, and waited until the imperial examination and martial arts examination were over before doing this, the more noble concubine would It's hard to fly with wings..."

Yue Jing'an shook her head and smiled, she took off her heavy cloak, her eyes were as clear as a pool of water.

"It's not that easy. Shui Yanran hasn't stayed in the palace for a day or two. Naturally, there are some methods and backgrounds. I don't intend to use this matter to make Shui Yanran step down. It's just for the emperor's heart. It’s just to add a vicious impression of her. To make a big tree die, we must start from the foundation, we still have a long time, let’s see this palace knock Shui Yanran down little by little!”

Yue Jing said calmly, not only Shui Yanran, but also Emperor Ming Sheng. Her husband and son are worthy of being emperors, and Emperor Ming Sheng is just a thief who took the throne.

"Your servant understands." Xiaozhu bowed her knees and nodded slightly. As a member of the former dynasty, Yue Jingan changed her status and let her follow her into the Dalai Palace.

"Let's bury Liu'er for Ben Gong's life. This time she has contributed a lot, and the family should give more money."

Yue Jing'an confessed, rubbed her scalp and sighed: "Poor girl, she is loyal."

Xiao Zhu nodded. Liu'er was also a member of the previous court, but she had to sacrifice her life to serve Yue Jing'an this time. It was really a pity.

"Liu'er is willing to do things for the empress, and the empress must not be too sad."

Yue Jing Anyuan looked at the spring rain outside the lattice window, and hugged her arms tightly. The days to be careful in the future are still long, how could she have so much thought to mourn.

On the other side, there was a completely different atmosphere in the Mosheng Garden. The continuous spring rain outside the window did not arouse Xia Zijin's melancholy at all. She could not help but curl her lips into a smile when she heard Xiao Huanzi's report on today's big drama in Yikun Palace.

"Concubine Yue Gui has always been conceited. It is rare for such a time to stumble. It seems that Concubine Lian has put in a lot of effort this time." Her eyes flickered slightly, and there was always a premonition that Yue Jing'an planned the poisoning incident Otherwise, she would be as cautious as Yue Jingan, how could she easily allow a court lady to poison her meal for many days without realizing it.

"The princess is very right. The servant's informant saw Miss Xiaozhu from Yuehua Palace tell the palace servants to go to the mass grave to bring back the body of the poisoned palace lady Liu Er for burial. I am afraid it was also the order of Concubine Lian. " Xiao Huanzi said in a low voice.

If Liu'er was really poisoned by Concubine Yue, with Yue Jing'an's temperament, how could she tell Xiao Zhu to send someone to bury the dead body of a traitor? The truth of this is self-evident.

Xia Zijin put down the scroll in her hand, and waved to Xiaokui who was threading needles and threads on the embroidered cloth, Xiaokui immediately put down the half-embroidered Clivia revealing satin in her hand, and walked to her side in small steps.

"How about what the princess told you to do last time?"

Xiao Kui Fu said: "Your servants have already inquired about it. This year's martial arts test rankings are mostly the sons and daughters of several generals. Their strength is very good. Several of them are about the same age as the Liu family's young cousin. It seems It is not yet known who will win the champion of martial arts."

Xia Zijin nodded. Although the Liu family is gradually improving, it is still not enough. Compared with Concubine Yue's tree with deep roots, the Liu family has nothing to show for it.

Now Liu Anqi and Liu Anli are the only outstanding members of the new generation of the Liu family. The two of them have a good time to develop. Not only does she have to seize the opportunity to deal with Concubine Yue and Xia Ziqi, but she also has to secretly plan for the Liu family. Well, only when the Liu family is stronger can the situation be more favorable to her.

"During the martial arts test, there were two candidates named Guanchi and Guanshuo. Xiao Huanzi, you should go out of the palace when you find a chance in these two days, and tell Cousin Anqi their names, and tell him to definitely To make friends with the two before the final final test, he is one of the bystanders of this military test, so he should be recognized."

She remembered that in the previous life, these two twin young martial arts students won the champion of martial arts and the flower of martial arts respectively, and they became a good story. After that, they became prosperous in just a few years, and their future was limitless.It would be a great thing if Liu Anqi could have a good relationship before the two of them made their fortunes.

"Slave report immediately." Xiao Huanzi bowed and bowed before leaving.

Xia Zijin twitched her index finger on the table, but the thoughts in her head became active, Wen and Wu are indispensable, Wu has her own Liu Anqi, so naturally she also has to take care of Liu Anli on Wen.

"Imperial examination..." Xia Zijin said silently, relying on the memory of her previous life in her mind, she had already locked in this year's No. [-] candidate.

"No hurry, take your time." She murmured to herself, she already had a plan in her heart, but the time had not come, she was waiting for the Day of Waking of Insects five days later, to take care of a major event.

"Princess, this slave has something to ask for an audience!"

At this matter, the door of the house was knocked with both hands, and there was a thumping sound. Xia Zijin looked at the bowing posture of the person outside the door through the shadow of the door, and raised his eyes to signal Xiaokui to open the door.

The door opened with a creak, and there was Huier standing outside the door with a strange expression. She looked up at Xia Zijin who was sitting quietly inside the room, and knelt down before biting her lips.

"What's the matter with you?" Xia Zijin asked, this girl is usually obedient, but it's the first time she asked to see her like this today.

"Princess..." Hui'er fiddled with the hem of her clothes with her hands, her eyes flickered, and she looked a little scared, she bit her lips for a long time, and finally couldn't help but bowed down and stammered, "Your servant is guilty! I beg the princess to forgive me!"

As a result, Xia Zijin became a little confused. She looked at Hui'er who was lying on the ground with a strange expression, and couldn't help saying: "What's your crime? Why doesn't this princess know?"

Hui'er shook her shoulders, and opened her eyes as soon as she closed her eyes, she said, "The servant was instructed by someone to add medicine to the princess's meal, but the servant failed to withstand the temptation of money, he deserves to die! I failed the princess's trust in the servant! "
