It hurts. It was knocked down one by one. It really hurt. But I have never suffered such a heavy punishment!
In the past, I only received verbal reprimands. I had never received such a severe punishment. But now, who is it all because of?
It’s all because of Taoyao! It's all because of her!
Ever since she appeared, she has captured everyone's attention. In the past, His Majesty could come to see her, but now he has never come even once!
On weekdays, he had to face the queen's glare and humiliation, feeling that he was unable to complete the tasks assigned to him.
But she also felt very aggrieved and had already made up her mind to push Tao Yao down. Who knew that they both fell down together!
It took more than a month for her to recover. The Queen made it clear just now. She couldn't blame Taoyao, she could only blame herself, and she could only suffer so many blows!
The Forty Edition has been beaten for almost half of the time, and Concubine Ning's back has been beaten to a bloody pulp.
Perhaps because of the hatred hidden in her heart, Concubine Ning clenched her fist so hard that her lips were almost bitten, but she managed to push through. After the beating, she was in so much pain that she couldn't even feel it.
After being moved back to her palace, the queen sent the best doctor there and used the best medicine.
She just had to let Concubine Ning know who was responsible for the beatings she received today, and she had to show her a good face and let her know who she should seek refuge with.
After hearing that the queen had beaten Concubine Ning, Emperor Xuan didn't pay attention and went directly to Taoyao after going to court.
Maybe it was because of Tao Yao that he felt much more pleasing to the eye when facing Jing Zhao. He no longer felt disgusted at first glance like before, but he still felt a knot in his heart.
The scene he saw at the beginning was so impressive that it always lingered in his heart like a nightmare, so he was unwilling to accept Jing Zhao's existence.
I thought I would just keep him in the cold palace for the rest of my life, but I really didn't expect Taoyao to say that she wanted a child to play with.
"Greetings to my father."
Jing Zhao always had a strange feeling when facing Emperor Xuan as his father. He had never seen him in his previous life when he was in the cold palace.
But now this life has changed. I came out early to see this father, but I really felt like a stranger.
He believed that he must be Emperor Xuan's child and they must have a blood relationship, but in this life they would never be as close as a father and son in an ordinary family.
"Do you still like the jade Ruyi I sent over the day before yesterday?"
Not knowing whether it was intentional or not, Emperor Xuan paid no attention to Jing Zhao and walked straight to the seats above.
There was an extra child between him and Tao Yao, and he was still a child he disliked so much before. He originally thought it was a positive and awkward thing, but he only acquiesced in this because he was willing to prefer Tao Yao.
There are many children in the harem, one more is not too much, and one less is not too many.
Jing Zhao then sat obediently on the small table next to him and read a book. Although he felt childish reading these books now, he still had to do what he should do.
Sure enough, great changes have taken place in this life. Tao Yao is indeed a very powerful woman, as if she has become his protective umbrella. Even the queen who was so powerful in the previous life has become her defeat.
"The things His Majesty sends are naturally excellent. How could I not like them?"
Tao Yao said boredly, the consequences seem to be very quiet recently, and the quietness is a bit abnormal.
Especially the queen who is willing to give herself a good look. This is absolutely abnormal. She must be holding back something big.
In fact, this is quite boring. I know that I can't beat myself no matter what, but I still end up hitting my head and bleeding every time. It's really interesting!
"I've been busy lately, and I haven't come to see you for several days. I really miss you!"
Emperor Xuan hugged Taoyao and finally felt a little quieter. He really felt strange that this woman was very attractive to him, but more importantly, he felt peaceful around him.
Because it is very clear that this woman is just a little pampered and wants to get more of her preference. She doesn't bother to do the fighting things in the harem. It's so cute!
"It doesn't matter. Your Majesty can just finish your own business. If Your Majesty always comes to see me, wouldn't it make me a target of public criticism? I'm afraid the other sisters will hate me to death!"
Tao Yao said helplessly that the tranquility now was just on the surface. I'm afraid things were already turbulent behind the scenes. It was just the tranquility before the storm was about to come.
In comparison, the fact that Jing Zhao left the cold palace seems not so important, because everyone's attention is all on herself. Now I'm afraid she is the first person the queen hates the most, right?
"I know you are a smart woman, and the trivial things in the harem have no effect on you at all."
Emperor Xuan didn't think so. In fact, even if something happened, he would naturally prefer Taoyao, so he couldn't help but feel a little resentful towards the queen many times.
At this age, what else is there to fight for?
"Then thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty!"
Tao Yao smiled happily, yes, how could those jealous things affect her?
Jing Zhao sat calmly reading a book. The time spent with Tao Yao seemed to be the most peaceful time.
There is no need to worry about anything at all, it seems that just staying by her side will be her biggest support.
This woman who appeared out of nowhere seems really different.
"I've met the queen!"
Concubine Ning lay on the bed and had no strength to even get down. This was only the third day after being tortured, and her back was still bloody.
When I applied the medicine, I was shaking all over from the pain, and I even fainted from the pain several times. It was really unbearable!
"Does it hurt? There was so much blood."
The queen sat on the edge of the bed, looking at the bloody wounds on her back, and raised the corners of her mouth slightly.
"I sent Dr. Li here and asked him to prepare the best medicine for you, but I didn't expect that you would still be injured like this."
The queen even took the ointment herself and applied it to the wound, with a look of distress on her face.
"Don't blame me. I'm just doing this to give His Majesty an explanation. It's obvious that His Majesty has become suspicious of what happened around the lotus pond. If we want to investigate thoroughly, I'm afraid I won't just beat you dozens of times." It’s a matter of course.”
The queen's attack was neither gentle nor heavy, and it was obvious that she touched the wound, and Concubine Ning was sweating again from the pain.
"I know, I know. I know the Queen's difficulties. It doesn't matter if you get these blows."
Concubine Ning gritted her teeth and said, can she say anything else at this moment? All these things have been beaten. If it can make the queen feel a little guilty about herself, that would be good.
"We are all women, but our lives are really different! In fact, I could hear the meaning behind His Majesty's words at that time. How could he be willing to punish Concubine Rong? So I could only fall into this trap. It’s happened to you, and I feel extremely guilty!”
The queen sighed intentionally or unintentionally. She is also a woman, and she knows this feeling.
Sure enough, this sigh sounded even more unpleasant to Concubine Ning, and she bit her lips harder. The physical pain seemed to have been numbed, but the pain in her heart was getting deeper and deeper.
unfair! It's really unfair!
Although she did have the idea of killing Taoyao, wasn't she perfectly fine and nothing happened to her? On the contrary, she had been ill for so long, but she still couldn't get any love.
"I have really wronged you this time, but there is nothing I can do about it. Now that Concubine Rong is so favored, sometimes even I can't do anything about her!"
The queen said helplessly.
It hurts. Only by remembering this pain can you know how deep the hatred is in your heart!
Concubine Ning had been trying hard to grit her teeth and endure it. When she heard these words, she felt aggrieved and resentful.
Why should I endure all this pain? Is it just because I am not as beautiful as Tao Yao and am not as favored by His Majesty as Tao Yao?
After the queen left, Concubine Ning felt a burning pain in her back. It always hurts like this after taking the medicine. She had not had a good night's sleep for several days.
The harem has been peaceful as never before for more than a month. Tao Yao is waiting for the storm to come, but she wants to see what else these mortals can do.
Jing Zhao, on the other hand, always pretended to be a child and worked hard to learn a lot of knowledge. He was always praised by Xiao Tang, and he also scratched his head and felt a little embarrassed.
After all, I can be regarded as a person who has lived a new life. It is naturally easy to face the knowledge that these children need to learn.
Emperor Xuan still turned a blind eye to him, and he didn't feel anything at all. After all, he had never treated Emperor Xuan as his father.
The biggest difference between the past life and this life is the presence of Tao Yao. Now it seems that Tao Yao is his protective umbrella and the most useful existence to him, so other things should proceed as they did in the previous life, right?
Taoyao has always believed that when raising children, one must make them happy.
I just hope that the memory of being in the cold palace in the past few years will slowly fade away in Jing Zhao's mind, and that when he grows up, he won't have such heavy grievances like in his previous life.
"How are you doing these days, sister?"
After recuperating in bed for almost more than a month, Concubine Ning was finally able to get out of bed and walk around. As soon as she recovered, she couldn't wait to come to Taoyao. Now the two of them were sitting in the courtyard talking.
"With His Majesty here, I am naturally fine. My sister has installed so many boards, but is my health still okay? Can I get out of bed and walk around so quickly?"
Taoyao picked up the tea cup and took a sip. She was indeed a little more tolerant towards mortals.
But there is no reason to be patient again and again. The last time you were soft-hearted was enough. If you provoke yourself again, you will never be soft-hearted again!
It's just a pity that I didn't expect Concubine Ning to come anyway. If she really dared to take action, then she really couldn't blame herself.
"Yeah, I'm confused. I actually asked my sister this question. With His Majesty's favor, how can my sister be worried? I'm afraid she can be happy every day without any worries. How enviable this is. life!"
Concubine Ning's face was very pale, she looked at Tao Yao's face and said with envy.
What a beautiful face, why doesn’t it grow on me? How enviable! How jealous she is, I wish I could just take a dagger and scratch all of her face!
She has always had a very subtle feeling for Taoyao, and she would put on a good face for the sake of face, but the deepest feelings hidden in her heart could not be deceived.
She is just envious and jealous!
Coupled with the pain of being bloody and bloody for more than a month, she felt that it was unfair. Why should she be the only one to suffer? If it was going to be painful, two people would have to suffer together!
