This incident finally ended with Concubine Chen being kicked out of the Dragon Palace by the emperor.
Li Chengyuan was really fed up with his stupid cousin, but because of his mother, he couldn't do anything to her, so he could only let Wu Mao lead the people to drive her out of the Dragon Palace.
"Wu Mao, the imperial concubine rushed to her. Tell her to go back to Zichen Palace and shut herself up to think about the past." Li Chengyuan said coldly.
"I accept your order," Wu Mao replied.
Immediately afterwards, he took several eunuchs and nuns to carry Concubine Chen out of the Dragon Palace in a "respectful and courteous manner".
After all, the emperor told Concubine Chen to get out. Of course he, the eunuch in charge of Longque Palace, had to obey the emperor's order.
Moreover, after being around the emperor for a long time, it is the basic law of a slave to observe his words and emotions. The emperor had long been dissatisfied with Concubine Chen, but because of the Queen Mother, he never refuted her face.
If the other party continues to behave like a monster, she is probably not far away from being bored, so Wu Mao has no intention of being timid towards Concubine Chen.
"Your Majesty, please, don't make things difficult for your slaves." Wu Maopi said with a smile.
Concubine Chen was lifted up by the eunuch, screaming loudly and hysterically all the way.
"Ah, cousin, how could you do this to me? What did I do wrong that you are so merciless?"
From time to time, there were also some angry curses against Wu Mao.
"How dare you, you little slave, you dare to do this to me, I will never forgive you in the future."
The emperor could still hear Concubine Chen's angry roar from a distance, and felt calm.
After a short time, all the concubines in the harem knew about such a huge drama, and they were all shocked.
You must know that Concubine Chen has been favored by His Majesty since she moved into the palace, and she is a real favorite concubine in the harem.
Even in recent years, Concubine Chen has become old and beautiful. Under the attack of new loves and favorites such as Concubine Shu, Concubine Zhen, Concubine Bao, Concubine Zhao, An Zhaoyi, and Shu Meiren, she is no less good at bedtime than other concubines.
In the past few years, probably because of her age, His Majesty did not favor her very much, but he still visited Zichen Palace one or two days a month.
Since his stay in the mansion, His Majesty has never done anything so disrespectful to Concubine Chen.
But now, I don't know what mistake Concubine Chen made, and she actually asked the eunuch in charge of Longque Palace to order people to carry Concubine Chen out of Longque Palace. This made the concubines in the harem feel sad.
At the same time, the high-ranking concubines in the harem also had their own thoughts.
Fengming Hall.
After the queen got the news, she sneered.
"I knew that that idiot would get better sooner or later."
The queen was so happy that she even asked Xia Yu to get her a bottle of fine wine, which she drank carefully.
On the other side, Chun Xin whispered.
"Your Majesty, why don't I send someone to find out what mistake Concubine Chen made to be so despised by His Majesty?"
The queen waved her hand, held the golden hairpin on her head, and said with a sarcastic smile.
"You don't understand that our Majesty seems to be affectionate, but he is ruthless; but he is ruthless, but he is also affectionate. Just look at it, his move seems to have slapped Concubine Chen in the face, but he will not even demote her. , it can be seen that it is not a big mistake, it is just to remind Concubine Chen."
As she spoke, the queen's face turned gloomy.
"That bitch and Your Majesty are not only childhood sweethearts, but also cousins. If there is no chance of killing her with one blow, there is no way he can trample her to death. In short, you don't need to inquire about this matter. If there is really something big, sooner or later It will spread to the harem."
What the queen didn't say was that the emperor's kindness to the concubines in the harem did not mean that he was willing to allow everyone in the harem to spy on the emperor and inquire about everything that happened in the Dragon Palace.
Their emperor treated the harem like a tease. As long as they didn't make trouble in front of him, he would just pretend to be deaf and dumb. But when it comes to him, it will be the fury of thunder.
Therefore, the queen basically did not work hard around the emperor and planted secret agents.
When the maids heard what the queen said, they remained silent.
-
Chuxiu Palace.
When the eunuch Jin Gao received the news, he was pleasantly surprised and immediately reported it to his master.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Chen seems to have made a mistake. Your Majesty ordered people to carry Concubine Chen out of the Dragon Palace. I am afraid that Concubine Chen will be demoted soon. By then, the position of concubine will only be respected by the Concubine. ." Jin Gao got carried away and began to flatter him.
Concubine He Guifei was reciting Buddhist scriptures, but when she heard the news, her eyes instantly became sharp.
"Shut up, is this what you can say?"
The great eunuch Jin Gao immediately scolded himself and kowtowed to the ground.
"Empress, slave..."
"You are the chief eunuch of my Chuxiu Palace. If you are so frivolous now, if you step out in the future, wouldn't it mean that I am incapable of disciplining my slaves? Besides, Concubine Chen has fallen before she falls. She is the master. You are a slave, how can I allow you to come in front of me and add insult to injury?"
"Slave...slave...please forgive me for my life." Jin Gao cried.
The regret in his heart was that he only remembered that Concubine Chen had made a mistake, and that his wife was the only concubine. But he forgot that the empress had a stable temperament and could not tolerate him being so frivolous.
At this time, a palace maid in her early thirties walked towards the two of them with a plate in her hand and a scroll of scriptures on it.
"Your Majesty, please don't be angry. Xiao Gaozi is also a member of the Qi Zichen Palace. He relied on Concubine Chen's power to usurp our Chuxiu Palace."
The person who came was Pei Ying, the steward aunt of Chuxiu Palace.
She was a personal maid who had grown up with Concubine He since she was a child. When she was twenty-five, not only did she not leave the palace, she even groomed herself in the palace and stayed with Concubine He throughout her life.
Concubine He couldn't do anything, so she left her behind. The master and servant depended on each other in the palace, and their relationship was extraordinary.
Seeing her personal maid interceding for Jin Gao, Concubine He just sighed and said calmly.
"Ying'er, Concubine Chen has been standing tall all these years, not by herself, but by Duke Zheng's family. It should be noted that Duke Zheng's family is not only the mother family of Concubine Chen, but also the mother family of the Queen Mother, and even more so the mother family of His Majesty. As long as As long as Duke Zheng's palace doesn't fall, Concubine Chen will never fall. What's the use of fighting for that momentary energy?" Concubine He said, her eyes gradually becoming gloomy.
When Pei Ying saw it, she naturally knew her master's resentment towards Concubine Chen. She didn't want her to be seen by the servants, so she said to Jin Gao, who was still kneeling on the ground and trembling.
"Xiao Gaozi, you have done a good job in inquiring about the information. You should be rewarded. You are frivolous. If you don't control it, you will bring trouble to Chu Xiugong sooner or later. I just see that you have served the master for many years, and you have worked hard even if you have no merit. The merits and demerits balance out, so I won't do it again. I’ll give you a chance and I won’t punish you. If there’s another time, I won’t let you off lightly.”
After Jin Gao heard this, he immediately trembled and kowtowed three times.
"Thank you, empress, for tolerating the slave's frivolous behavior. Thank you, aunt, for teaching me. From now on, Xiao Gaozi will have a good memory and will be careful in his words and deeds so as not to cause trouble to Chu Xiugong."
"Okay, you go down first!" Concubine He glanced at her, out of sight and out of mind, and dismissed the other party.
Jin Gao wanted to express his solemn thanks to Aunt Pei Ying, but when he saw that his aunt had already gone to the empress with the plate in her hand, he stepped back and waited to express his gratitude to his aunt for interceding.
On the other side, Pei Ying was holding the Purana Sutra copied by Liu Guiren from the side hall of Chuxiu Palace for the deceased fourth prince.
Concubine He picked it up and glanced at it. She saw the beautiful and long hairpin flowers on it and said lightly.
"If Mr. Liu is interested, then burn this scroll to Hao'er on the anniversary of his death! In addition, you can choose some rewards to give to her, so that she will not remember the anniversary of Hao'er's death."
After saying that, she threw the flipped scripture back to its original place.
