The painter was so angry that he put down his brush and looked up at the emperor: "Your Majesty, look at her..."
The emperor said angrily: "What are you looking at? I also think your painting skills are not good. Stop painting and get out."
The painter hesitated for a moment, then quickly bowed his head and retreated.
The emperor picked up the paintings. These figures were indeed ugly. They didn't look like fairies. After looking through them for a long time, he finally found a better-looking painting among them.
"Come here." The emperor called to the person, "Take this painting out and look for the same woman as in this painting."
"yes."
Immediately afterwards, the emperor looked at Yu Niang again: "You can go too. If you find someone, I will call you into the palace again."
Yu Niang said gratefully: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
As soon as the people left, the emperor pressed his eyebrows tiredly.
After a while, the chief eunuch came back and walked into the royal study to report: "Your Majesty, the fourth princess is here."
Hearing this, the emperor raised his head: "Xuan."
When Chu Yingluo arrived, she was sitting in a carriage and missed Yu Niang's carriage.
After the emperor agreed to the summons, Chu Yingluo walked into the imperial study. As soon as she entered, she saw various pictures of women in front of the emperor. She glanced at it and immediately frowned. The person in the picture, Could it be that she was the one painted?
However, this painting is too ugly...
Could it be that the emperor found her based on these paintings?
Just as Chu Yingluo was about to step forward to salute, the emperor suddenly looked at her, with a flash of surprise in his eyes, and said in surprise: "Chu Yingluo?"
Chu Yingluo bowed slightly and saluted: "Yes, my daughter-in-law Chu Yingluo has met the emperor."
The emperor's pupils shrank slightly and he looked at her without blinking: "What is that painted on your face?"
Chu Yingluo was startled, then touched the flower between her eyebrows, "Is this what the emperor said?"
The emperor nodded: "Yes."
Chu Yingluo explained: "This is a flower painted with Luozida..."
Before he finished speaking, the emperor suddenly said sharply: "Bold, who asked you to draw like this?"
Chu Yingluo paused and suddenly felt confused. Couldn't she draw?
The emperor asked: "Why do you want to imitate the imperial concubine?"
"Imitation?" Chu Yingluo explained: "My wife did not imitate the imperial concubine, and this Phalaenopsis was painted for me by the Fourth Prince."
The emperor suddenly raised his eyebrows: "Fourth brother? What's the purpose of painting this between your eyebrows? Does he want to remind me of something?"
The emperor suddenly slammed the table and became angry: "In my heart, I have never forgotten his mother and concubine. There is really no need for the fourth child to waste his efforts to remind me."
Then, the emperor stared at the flower between her eyebrows and said in an angry and cold voice: "In my heart, she is the most beautiful woman in the world. Even if you look like a fairy, no one can draw her except her." Like her, go and wipe that shit off your face.”
Chu Yingluo: "..." There is something wrong with this emperor.
Chu Yingluo couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty, these eyebrows were already painted before you summoned me to the palace. Moreover, the Fourth Prince painted my eyebrows just because he occasionally thought of his mother and concubine. It was not for the Emperor. You see, the emperor is so angry. Is it because he saw this flower and thought of the imperial concubine, and felt guilty, that he became angry from shame?"
"Presumptuous! Who told you to talk to me like this?" The emperor said in a cold voice, "Why am I so angry?"
Chu Yingluo was not afraid because the emperor was angry. Instead, she looked at him neither humble nor overbearing: "Did I say something wrong? The emperor blamed me for the flowers between my eyebrows. He just thought of the imperial concubine and felt ashamed of the imperial concubine and the four people. My lord, I heard that the emperor loved the imperial concubine very much in the past, but my lord, how did you treat the fourth prince? In the past three years, have you ever cared about what happened to the fourth prince?"
"When have I ever been ashamed of them?"
Chu Yingluo couldn't help but take advantage of this opportunity to defend the Fourth Prince: "The Emperor has done too much to the Imperial Concubine. Three years ago, the Emperor decreed that the Fourth Prince's pipa bone should be broken. They say that tiger poison cannot eat its seeds. The emperor did not find out the truth and directly deposed the fourth prince. This was one of the reasons. The prince was paralyzed in bed. The second prince colluded with the Ministry of Household Affairs and cut off the prince's salary. The emperor ignored this and allowed the prince to fend for himself. , this counts as the second one, and..."
"shut up!"
The emperor's face became more and more gloomy, extremely ugly, as if he was a furious lion after being poked into his mind. Even if he knew that he was wrong, he was the emperor, how could he admit that he was wrong? How could he tolerate others blaming him?
The emperor angrily rebuked: "Chu Yingluo, do you think I can't deal with you, so you dare to be so unscrupulous? Although the fourth child is paralyzed in bed now and it's not time for you to be buried with him, I can kill you at any time. !”
Chu Yingluo chuckled: "Could it be that the emperor wanted me to enter the palace today just to kill me?"
In the past, she might have been more cautious and not angered the emperor, but now that the epidemic has broken out so severely, the emperor is worried that he cannot find a solution. Only she holds the prescription for the epidemic in her hand. She believes that the emperor will not be able to cure the epidemic. She would be willing to kill her, so even if she angered the emperor today, nothing would happen to her head.
Thinking of this, Chu Yingluo raised her head, head high and confident.
"Isn't the Emperor reluctant to part with it?"
The emperor's eyebrows were cold. When she interrupted him, he almost forgot the purpose of today. Originally, he called Chu Yingluo to talk about the fourth son's salary and planned to give some compensation to the fourth prince's palace. Who knew that this girl didn't know whether to live or die? How dare you contradict him.
Can this be tolerated?
The emperor suddenly became furious and said in a cold voice: "I am the king. A king can never make mistakes, let alone feel guilty. But it is you, Chu Yingluo! You are disrespectful to me and are so bold. You deserve to die!"
Chu Yingluo's body trembled.
The emperor suddenly increased his voice: "Even if I don't kill you, I will never let you off lightly. Someone, drag the fourth princess down and beat her twenty times to see if I am willing to let you go."
Chu Yingluo was stunned, that's not right, didn't the emperor call her to treat the epidemic?
"Your Majesty, your Majesty..." Chu Yingluo suddenly became frightened: "Are you serious that you won't come? Are you really going to fight?"
The emperor snorted coldly: "Now you know you are afraid?"
Seeing that she was scared, the emperor finally felt at ease. He sneered and said, "I just want to see if it's your words or your stubbornness. Jun Wuyan, I said I'm going to fight, I'm going to fight! Drag it down and fight!" "
Chu Yingluo was stunned. What a fool! This tyrant, this foolish king, was actually serious!
"Your Majesty, a gentleman speaks but does not use his hands."
What's wrong with this emperor who beats people even if he doesn't say anything?
The emperor sneered: "I am the emperor, and naturally I am also a gentleman. Fight!"
Chu Yingluo was about to argue with the tyrant.
Suddenly, the eunuch hurried in and reported: "Your Majesty, Aunt Wan is here. She said that the Queen Mother invites you to drink tea at Cining Palace."
The emperor waved his hand: "Go back and tell the queen mother that I will go immediately after I finish beating her."
The great eunuch glanced at Chu Yingluo, then looked at the emperor, and came closer and said, "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother told you to go now. Aunt Wan is waiting at the door."
The emperor's face froze.
