Why does life exist? To see through the heart of the mortal world;

The king pressed on in panic, begging for relief.

In the empress dowager's palace of mercy, the empress dowager, empress dowager, and others came to pay their respects. The empress dowager looked at everyone strangely and frowned slightly. "Why haven't we seen any concubines or concubines?" Consort, concubine, concubine … these people didn't know the reason. The Emperor's prohibition of concubines and concubines was actually quite low-key. The empress concubines of the Six Palaces didn't know about it, and those who didn't like to ask about it didn't know either. also knew. She looked up to see Imperial Concubine Yi only to see that after a moment of hesitation, she raised her head and said softly, "Reporting to the Empress Dowager, I don't know if I should speak of this matter properly."

"What's wrong with that? You must know that you're in charge of the harem. Speak!" The empress dowager said softly.

"Yes, Old Ancestor. The Emperor has banned the two of them from taking on concubines." The Imperial Concubine Yi said softly.

"What?" The empress dowager cried out in alarm. At the same time, a few of the imperial concubines seated below couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air. Why was another person grounded? The empress dowager asked sternly, "Why?"

"Chenqie really doesn't know. Chenqie only knows that her foot is banned." She had heard this from her concubine yesterday, so she had no idea what was going on. She then thought, "Old Ancestor, the emperor hasn't told you or anyone else. Does he not want everyone to know that his concubine is being too talkative?"

"Didn't the emperor tell you? "Then how do you know?" The Empress Dowager looked at the Imperial Concubine Yi in confusion.

Seeing the empress dowager ask, the concubine hurriedly stood up and said, "Old ancestor, it was chenqie who told Imperial Concubine Yi that you knew that chenqie was living with a concubine or concubine before she was bestowed the title of concubine. That's why you've always been on good terms with them.

"Oh!" The empress dowager nodded and thought deeply for a moment. "The emperor didn't mention it. It might not be anything out of the ordinary, it might just be a minor punishment due to angering the emperor. You guys pay more attention to your words and actions, don't make the emperor angry."

"Yes sir!" Everyone acknowledged, but the empress dowager's expression was solemn as she replied, "For this matter, all of you should refrain from discussing and making wild guesses. This Dowager will personally interrogate the emperor."

To tell the truth, the empress dowager was truly surprised. What surprised her was not that Xuan Ye had banned both of her concubines' feet, but that he had actually punished Rong'er. She told the latter that this was a small matter, but she knew in her heart that it definitely wasn't a small matter …

In the evening, Xuan Ye paced back and forth in front of the Yinkun Palace. "Consultant, are you not here to see me, your concubine or concubine?"

"Reporting to the Emperor, I haven't heard any message." "Yes, Your Highness," the counselor replied respectfully. He secretly thought that this concubine and the concubine wanted to offend the emperor. The emperor had been confined for three days already, and his mood hadn't improved in the past three days.

Xuan Ye heaved a heavy sigh. He still couldn't force Rong'er. He didn't know how to force her, but in his heart, he still couldn't bear to do so. "I'm a consultant. I'm going to the Changchun Palace."

Yesterday afternoon, the empress dowager had called him over to ask him about Rong'er and Zhi Zhi, and he remembered her asking in a very strange tone, "Your majesty, how did I hear that you had banned your concubine and concubine?"

"Yes." Xuan Ye nodded and said in a low voice, but there was no trace of joy on his face.

"Why?" The empress dowager frowned slightly.

"Royal Grandmother, the two of them hid something from me …" He didn't want to alarm the empress dowager. He wanted to minimize the impact, but it was clear that in this crowded imperial harem, he and his imperial concubines were the focus of attention. Everyone was paying attention to their every move.

"Can I know what it is?" The empress dowager raised her head to look into Xuan Ye's eyes. Xuan Ye subconsciously avoided his grandma's searching gaze. "Grandmother, it's nothing major. Grandson is also investigating. When grandson finishes, I'll tell Grandmother, what do you think?"

The empress dowager nodded. "Yes, grandson. This one doesn't care what you do, but right now, Empress Xiao Zhao has just passed away for less than a year. This one doesn't want anything bad to happen to this empress dowager, do you understand?"

"Royal Grandmother, your grandson doesn't want to either!" He could no longer pretend that he did not know and ignore this matter. At this point, he had to find out the truth.

Xuan Ye stood in the middle of Changchun Palace, looking at Wang Jingzhi kneeling in front of him. The few days of confinement had caused her face to pale, but was she really not afraid of the excessive changes in her demeanor? Did she really think that he didn't dare to punish her? He smiled wryly, realizing that he did not dare to do so. He really could not guess what these women were thinking, and at this point in time, before he could find out the truth, he could not force her to die, so he might as well change the method.

"My concubine, are you still not going to tell me the truth?" Xuan Ye looked coldly at Zhi Zhi.

"To return to the Emperor, chenqie has nothing to say." Sergei replied softly.

"Good, very good!" Xuan Ye sneered. "I am very disappointed. Not to you, but to my concubine. She actually lied to me along with you!"

Hearing Xuan Ye's words, Gong Zhi looked up at him in shock. Ever since she was grounded, he had never seen Rong'er again. Could it be … Had Rong'er been implicated by her? That was something she didn't want to happen.

As if he understood her thoughts, Xuan Ye said in a heavy tone, "I have never been unkind to her, but she actually came with you to deceive me, which makes me extremely angry!" "Therefore, she has been imprisoned just like you. If you don't say anything now, you can, if I find out in the future, you two will be punished as well!"

"NO!" Your majesty! It has nothing to do with being a concubine. Please don't ask her for her crimes! " Zhizhi didn't expect that the Emperor would blame Rong'er. She thought that the Emperor's feelings for Rong'er wouldn't ask for Rong'er's punishment. She really didn't think that the Emperor would be so ruthless.

"Is it my love that has strengthened your courage?" Xuan Ye suddenly shouted, "I've always thought that Rong'er was a virtuous and virtuous person and wouldn't do something that I don't like out of favor with. It's obvious that I was wrong!"

"No, Your Majesty! "You're right, your concubine is definitely wholehearted towards you, it's your concubine's fault. Her concubine doesn't know anything, she doesn't know anything!" Zhizhi didn't want her matter to implicate the Emperor's love for Rong'er, so she hurriedly said this in a flustered manner.

"She admits that she knows …" Xuan Ye's face revealed a hint of a smile as he looked towards Zhi Zhi. As he thought, with the deep affection between them, it was as if Rong'er didn't want to reveal Zhi Zhi's secret. Zhi Zhi also definitely didn't want him to involve Rong'er.

"Your Majesty, I beg of you. Your concubine really didn't participate in anything. She just doesn't want your concubine to …" "Your majesty, please don't punish the crime of being an honorable concubine?"

"Not to punish the sin of a concubine? Yes! "Then tell us the truth right now!" Xuan Ye looked at Zhizhi with confidence.

"This …" Zhizhi lowered her head in thought. Forget it, it was better to die than to die. Thinking of this, Zhizhi quickly pulled out a jade hairpin from her head and aimed it at her throat.

Xuan Ye had, after all, trained in martial arts and had great strength. When he hit her hand, Jing Zhi felt pain from the hand holding the jade hairpin, and the jade hairpin flew out along with Xuan Ye's strength, breaking into two pieces as it hit the wall beside him.

Time passed quickly. Jingzhi used her left hand to cover the pain on her right hand as she looked up at Xuan Ye in surprise.

Xuan Ye's eyes revealed a vicious light as he stared at Zhi Zhi. Gritting his teeth, he fiercely said, "Is this the method you used to deal with me? Does everyone kill themselves against me? "

There was a momentary silence in the air, as if the Emperor didn't dare to speak. Xuan Ye didn't speak, since the sky was already dark. The candle light flickered, causing Zhi Zhi to feel even more terrified as he looked at Xuan Ye's expression. What did the Emperor want her to do? Can't he even die? Actually, it wasn't that she was afraid of asking the Emperor for a death sentence. She was just afraid that this matter would implicate 'him', that he still had a future, and that he was just a useless harem woman, so she didn't dare say or say anything.

The sound of the door creaking broke the silence in the room. The consultant quickly walked in.

"What is it? When did I allow you to come in! " "Your majesty, please calm your anger. To report to your majesty, just now the Tzu Ning Palace sent a decree from the Grand Empress Dowager. Please make use of this time to head over."

"So late?" Xuan Ye was puzzled. "Replying, I'll head over now."

Xuan Ye strode towards the door, and just as he was about to reach the door, he suddenly turned his head to look at Zhi Zhi and said, "I'll tell you, if you die, it'll be a great honor to be your concubine and your family members. I won't spare any of them, I'm not threatening you, if you can keep what you say, I'll do it too! "Humph!" After finishing his words, Xuan Ye flicked his sleeves and left the hall.

As soon as Xuan Ye stepped out of the door, Jingzhi fell and sat on the ground. It was an autumn night, and she could feel a slight chill in her heart as the cold ground penetrated her clothes. It was so cold, so cold, that she had no reason to implicate Rong'er and her family.
