Afraid that she would be frightened, he put his hands behind his back, took Jiang Xinyue's hand and rubbed it. He turned back and nodded to her, saying softly: "Don't be afraid, I trust you."
Believe me, you idiot. He saw Concubine Shu riding on Concubine Li at that time. Can he still blame her?
There was a touch of emotion on her face. Jiang Xinyue sniffed, her mouth pursed, she wanted to cry but was holding back. No matter how she looked, she looked like a pitiful little kid who had been bullied.
It seemed that Emperor Xuanwu loved her more and more.
Another concubine who was kneeling in the palace was not so relaxed.
She was the culprit who caused Concubine Li's miscarriage. On the back of the palace, Concubine Li forced herself up: "I don't want her child. She killed my child, and I want her to pay with her life."
Mrs. Pei no longer struggled with Empress Dowager Wu and walked into the inner hall to persuade her: "Mother, don't be willful. You will not have any more children in the future. How can you let your family rest assured? It was Concubine Shu who caused you to have no children, so she should compensate you." of."
"I said I don't want it!"
Concubine Li swung her palm, and the medicine bowl in Xia He's hand flew out and broke behind the screen with a crisp sound.
The whole room was silent except for Concubine Li's shrill roar: "When I see her, the children I see will remind me of the child aborted in my belly. What are you doing by keeping her child torturing yourself? What? She is planning to kill her." The noble concubine poisoned the emperor's heir. Can't she be beheaded for such a crime? The emperor and the queen mother are determined to protect her, and I don't mind letting my grandfather and grandpa seek justice for me."
When you rise to the court, it is not as simple as asking a concubine to die. The ministers will doubt the emperor's ability to do things and waver in their determination to assist the wise emperor.
"This is all my concubine's fault. Please be a noble concubine and don't embarrass the emperor."
Concubine Shu finally found the opportunity to speak out: "I deserve death for my crime, but the child in my belly is innocent. Concubine... I am willing to give the child to the imperial concubine. Concubine... I invite you to Han." The mountain temple prays for the noble concubine.”
Gusu Hanshan Temple is a temple with extremely strong folk incense.
Jiang Xinyue raised her eyes. Concubine Shu was really smart. She found a way out for herself in an instant.
Emperors of the Yan Dynasty visited the south of the Yangtze River every ten years, but Emperor Xuanwu was diligent in government affairs and had not yet gone to the south of the Yangtze River to enjoy the scenery of the water town.
Concubine Shu was sure that within three years at the latest, the emperor would definitely visit Jiangnan next time, so she took the initiative to go to Hanshan Temple.
Empress Zhu was like a tool, neither helping Concubine Shu nor Concubine Li. Only at this moment did she say: "Hanshan Temple in Gusu, that is the most beautiful temple in Dayan, Concubine Shu But I found a good place for myself.”
Concubine Li's sharp voice came from behind the screen: "Let him go to the Jokhang Temple in Jialuo and wait for her to give birth to the child. Leave the child behind and let her go to the Jokhang Temple alone to pray for the child who died in vain."
Empress Dowager Wu had deep furrows between her brows and a pair of sharp phoenix eyes: "Jia Luo is thousands of miles away, and the people's customs are fierce. Does Concubine Li want to kill Concubine Shu?"
"Isn't it fair that one life for one life?"
Concubine Li sneered and said: "If I am willing to adopt her child, she should have fun secretly. Does the Queen Mother think that Concubine Shu's life is important, and my child is so worthless? This is not okay, If you don’t want to, then it’s better to let Concubine Shu pay for my life.”
Jiang Xinyue almost laughed out loud. Concubine Li's move was to retreat in order to advance, but the ultimate goal was to force the Queen Mother and Concubine Shu to hand over their children to her for raising.
She and Mrs. Pei, one played the bad role and the other played the bad role, forcing the Queen Mother to have no way out.
This is the confidence that a powerful family gives them.
No wonder Queen Mother Wu always wanted to revive the Wu family, and Concubine Shu always wanted the emperor to return the Wu family to the capital from exile.
Concubine Shu knocked her head heavily on the ground: "I am willing to go to Jokhang Temple, and please ask Concubine Li... Concubine Li to treat my children well."
She cried so hard that the Empress Dowager Wu was the only one present who felt sorry for her. The Emperor tilted his head and was talking to Jiang Xinyue.
For a long time, Queen Mother Wu's face turned dark and gloomy. She glared at Jiang Xinyue fiercely and gritted her teeth and said: "Your father-in-law is right, and your mother-in-law is right. Since Concubine Shu is willing to take a step back, then just do what Concubine Li said! But she said After all, if Concubine Zhen hadn’t gone to Concubine Shu to release the kite, this thing wouldn’t have happened. Concubine Zhen also has to bear part of the responsibility, so let’s ground her for one month and remove the green head card!”
By saying this, she had already decided Jiang Xinyue's punishment and would not allow the emperor and empress to refute again.
The strong smell of Chinese medicine emanated from behind the screen, and Jiang Xinyue's stomach churned, almost making her want to vomit.
Emperor Xuanwu also knew that if he continued to protect her at this time, Empress Dowager Wu might be more and more disgusted with Zhen Concubine. He could not accompany Zhen Concubine all the time. He kept a cold face and said nothing.
Jiang Xinyue pulled the emperor's hand, smiled at him, walked out from behind him, and bowed down: "I accept my punishment."
Compared to Concubine Shu, this is no longer a punishment for her. It is just a month of self-cultivation. She doesn’t have to pay respects to the Queen, and she doesn’t have to look at the two idiots Jin Zhaoyi and Ye Guiren. She is still happy and pure!
Emperor Xuanwu sent the person back to Hexi Palace, held her hand and said goodbye reluctantly: "My beloved concubine, the results of the martial arts competition of the imperial guards have come out. Wang Dequan said that there were two guards with chest injuries. Originally, I was going to take care of them. You used to recognize people, but since the Queen Mother wants you to be grounded, I will bring them to Hexi Palace tomorrow, and you can identify them in front of the palace."
"two?"
Jiang Xinyue blinked her big, watery eyes, which were clear and clear, without any scheming: "Who is it? I heard from them that most of the imperial guards have backgrounds. What if the person I pointed out has a background? , will it embarrass the emperor?"
Emperor Xuanwu snorted coldly: "Depending on his background, if he dares to touch my woman, I will suppress him until he has no chance to turn around in his life."
This hatred came out of nowhere.
Touching the emperor's woman?
It should have another meaning.
Jiang Xinyue's eyes flashed slightly, not sure if her previous words to sow concubine Shu's relationship with the emperor in front of Wang Dezhong had any effect.
But what is certain is that the two guards with chest injuries tomorrow will not be ordinary people. They should be family brothers of high-ranking concubines.
They were scheming and scheming, but they didn't realize clearly that the final initiative was not in their hands, but in Jiang Xinyue's hands.
She is the perfect "victim" and whoever she refers to as the murderer is the murderer.
I think her Hexi Palace will be very lively tonight.
