Noble Lady Yi had thought that Princess Shi would be horrified and anxious to ask her for evidence.
However, after hearing the name of Chunfang, the mole, Consort Shio's complexion did not change much.
Just the eyes suddenly emptied into silence.
Yi Guiren also did not rush to talk, waiting for her to slowly chew.
Concubine Shio looked at the tea with her eyes downcast, and all that flashed through her mind was the image of Chunfang pleading for forgiveness in front of the Empress for her sake that day.
Before Xue Yao told her to beware of Chunfang, she thought that even if it was true, Chunfang should have been coerced by Concubine Tong and was confused for a moment.
She was still thinking of pulling Chunfang back in with her true heart.
Now, Noble Lady Yi came to tell her that before she entered the palace, Chunfang was Consort Tong's person.
So, was Chun-Fang's loyalty a lie from the beginning?
Come to think of it, the reason why she made a taboo and angered the Empress that day was all because she chose the wrong color for that garment.
The three palace dresses that Chunfang had picked out for her before she left the house that day were all of the same color.
So it was on purpose?
Princess Shio suddenly let out a bitter laugh.
Even the trick was pre-arranged, Chunfang deliberately set her up, and by taking a beating herself, she easily became her confidant.
Yi Guiren was surprised by her sudden laughter, busy whispering to explain: "Your Highness, what I said is true, you must beware of the girl called Chunfang, the oldest four from a young ...... age."
"I know you didn't lie to me." Concubine Shih returned to her senses, took a deep breath, and looked forlornly at Noble Lady Yi: "I just feel so tired, what trustworthy people are there in this harem?"
Noble Lady Yi froze, this was said in a sympathetic manner, it was evident that Consort Shi led her to this love.
After deliberating for a long time, she also replied sincerely, ''Don't you and I both have sons? The flesh that falls from one's own body is ultimately oriented towards oneself. I have often heard Lao Si say that Lao Qi is an exceptional prodigy, and will have great accomplishments in the future, so why should you worry about the future?"
"To what great deeds." Concubine Shio said ruefully, "I only hope that he will be carefree for the rest of his life, no matter if he goes to a fiefdom or stays in the capital to open a residence, the farther away from this palace, the better."
Yi noblewoman eyes red, trembling voice said:" to say a word of high praise, your mother this heart when the mother, and I am the same, only I do not compete, even tired son in suffering and humiliation in the growing up, I suffer is not so bad, but just look at his young age ...... such days, I do not know when will be the end of the day? "
Concubine Shi looked at Noble Lady Yi with pity and comforted, "Since you are willing to befriend me, I will not refuse anything I can do."
Yi noblewoman's heart was happy, wiped off her tears with a handkerchief, looked up to Consort Shi: "I do have a matter, I want to ask your majesty to fulfill it, I do not have your majesty's such a heavenly fairy's posture, and now I am nearly thirty years old, if I can not get your majesty's occasional mercy, my mother and son two people will have no day to get ahead in this life, so I ...... "
Seeing that she was blushing and unable to speak, Consort Shih warmly laughed and said, "I understand what you mean, His Majesty is a person who remembers old feelings, but he is busy with political affairs and neglected you, I will look for the opportunity to remind him a few times, and he will surely remember you."
"Thank you for your kindness, just ......"
"Anything else?"
Noble Lady Yi clenched her teeth and spoke out in a low voice, "A few days ago, His Majesty asked me if I wanted to accompany him on a tour of Ba Shu, and asked me to think about it and then ask you to convey my decision to him."
Princess Shio's face went white as a bolt from the blue!
Yi Guiren was worried that she was cynical and jealous, she scrambled to get up and step back, kneeling down for Consort Shi: ''Your Highness! I'm old and yellow, the emperor won't look at me, but if I can accompany you and the emperor to go on a tour together, this kind of honor is enough for me and Lao Si to live a bit like a human being in the next few years, I beg you to have pity on us, mother and son, I must serve you wholeheartedly all the way!"
Concubine Shio was shocked in a non-light way and froze in her chair, forgetting to help her up.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Noble Lady Yi knew that there was no hope, so she whimpered in despair.
"Sister please get up." Princess Shio came back to her senses and hurriedly got up to help her up, her mind still blank.
How could the Emperor let an unknown nobleman accompany him on a parade?
Concubine Shih was worried that she wouldn't be able to get away with it, but she didn't expect Noble Lady Yi to actually squeeze her head out and take the initiative to fight for the opportunity to accompany the driver on the parade.
"What does sister mean, is that she wants to accompany His Highness on a tour of Ba Shu?" Concubine Shio tried.
"In my dreams." Noble Lady Yi replied with tears in her eyes, "It was His Majesty himself who asked me."
"I understand." Consort Shio asked softly and sheepishly, "You ...... want me to tell the emperor that you are willing to accompany the driver?"
The hope in Noble Lady Yi's eyes was revived, "Your Highness is willing to fulfill me? This is the last hope for us mother and child!"
Princess Shio's heart trembled.
She was kind by nature, and although she knew that Noble Lady Yi had come to inform on her but wanted to take advantage of her, she couldn't bear to see her and her Fourth Imperial Son tripping through this muddy water for no reason.
She and Lao Qi were honored and carried some bad reputation for the emperor, but in the end, there was still the emperor to protect them.
Yi Guiren this yellow and withered face, obviously has suffered half a lifetime, if ......
"Do you really want to accompany the driver on tour?" Shih Fei could not bear to agree in one mouth, and even began to warn the woman, "Going on a tour of Ba Shu, the mountain road is difficult and dangerous, you must ...... first Offer the Shu Road, without three or two years, it is not possible to go."
"I've waited for more than ten years, why would I care about these three or two years? I only ask for your majesty's fulfillment!" Noble Lady Yi was sent to the palace at the age of eight, not knowing what life the people outside the palace lived, not to mention the treacherous mountain roads.
In her opinion, this palace is not moving to rebuild the new hall, the expedited project can be completed in seven or eight months, to build a mountain road is nothing?
Princess Shio stopped reminding her and only asked her, "Does your son know about this matter?"
If Yi Guiren insisted on going, she wouldn't stop her, she only hoped that the two of them, mother and son, would discuss and make a decision beforehand, and wouldn't slam their grievances on her head afterward.
Consort Shio herself had already committed a major offense by trying to hide from the Emperor's ambitions, and could not tell the secret to the other concubines.
Yi Guiren didn't know why she suddenly asked about Lao Si, and after some thought, she answered honestly, "I told him early on, and he also hoped that I could ask for her majesty's permission."
"This has nothing to do with me." Concubine Shio spoke expressionlessly, "Remember, the Emperor is asking for your opinion, and you mother and son have conferred, I can relay the decision for you, but it is not that I have agreed with your decision, remember, it is your own decision."
Noble Lady Yi was startled by this sudden detachment in her attitude and nodded her head blankly, "Yes, it was my concubine's own decision, I'd like to trouble Your Highness to convey it to His Majesty!"
*
After Xue Yao returned to the mansion, his mind was filled with images of the Grand Prince's kinetic education of the Third Prince, it was simply too brainwashing.
I've only heard of nodding like garlic before, but this is the first time I've seen hitting someone like garlic!
There was also the pleasant look on the Grand Prince's iceberg face, which quickly melted after being barfed on by the little fat cub.
It really is ...... memorable.
When he first read the novel, he was filled with Long Ao Tian Ning Wang, and he didn't have much memory of the Grand Prince.
I vaguely remember that the eldest prince was made the crown prince when he was about twenty years old, and a few years later, he was abolished after the failure of the change of law.
The last appearance of the abrogated prince was on the eve of the emperor's imminent death.
At that time, the emperor's imperial campaign, the last duel is probably complacent, himself with the vanguard cavalry to chase the poor bandits, the result was ambushed flanking raid, the emperor accidentally hit by stray bullets, was besieged in a valley in the midst of the dead land.
The Abolished Prince was also accompanying the army at that time, and after learning that his father was under siege, he wanted to mobilize his troops to break in and rescue him.
But the general leading the army is Tong Fei's brother, brother and sister in collaboration, waiting for the emperor out of chaos, how can give the abolition of the Prince's troops?
The abrogated prince begged for a daily response, and eventually secretly brought the emperor's personal guards, totaling six hundred and eighty people, to raid the valley late at night.
More than six hundred elite warriors, fighting for their lives to break the back, bloody battles all night, in the tens of thousands of enemy soldiers to save the besieged emperor.
After dawn, there were only a hundred or so of his own guards who came back alive.
The abrogated prince was hit by several arrows, and after sending the emperor back to the camp, he was found to have broken on his warhorse, still clutching his halberd in his hand at the time of his death.
Sadly the emperor was not saved in the end, as his wounds became infected and he collapsed.
The Abolished Crown Prince gave up his life for nothing, the Empress was left without a son, and the Daqi court instantly changed.
When the second prince heard that his elder brother was killed in battle, he disappeared that night, and it was only afterward that he heard people say that he had left his home to travel in the clouds.
As if the heavens are helping Consort Tong, she and her elder brother in collaboration, control of the dynasty, successfully changed the posthumous edict, suppressing the courtiers' dissenting views, and put the third prince on the throne.
This time in the original is considered one of the darkest periods in the hero's life.
King Ning was only ten or so years old, because his mother was accused by thousands of people, in the palace life is very difficult, the biggest dependence is to favor his abolition of the Crown Prince, and his father, who is still reliable.
As a result, the Abolitionist Prince died, his father also collapsed, and the mysterious second brother evaporated.
The sky has fallen on the young King Ning, accomplishing the base environment for the early stages of his darkening.
When Xue Yao first watched the episode, he was still particularly excited, thinking that this Buddhist male lead was finally going to fight for his life!
Yet at the moment, being in the middle of it, imagine the future - what kind of life would he and the little fat cub have to live without the big royal sitting in the middle of it without his kinetic punching brother?
It's killing me!
I hoped that when the Second Prince traveled in the clouds, he would take him and Little King Ning with him.
As he was thinking, he pushed his way into the east bedroom.
When I closed the door, I heard a click from inside the house.
Xue Yao was startled and turned his head to see Xue Qiong standing beside the bed with glaring eyes.
The brothers stared at each other without words.
Xue Qiong strutted around like nobody's business, ready to go out the door.
Xue Yao raised his hand to block his way and asked coldly, "What are you doing in my bedroom?"
"Brother came to have fun with you, no?" Xue Qiong rationalized.
Xue Yao's afterglow looked under his bed and saw that his privately hidden chest had already been dragged out by a large amount, knowing that Xue Qiong must have just tried to smash open the lock of his chest.
"You want to steal from me?" Xue Yao stared unabashedly at the boy who was a head taller than himself.
"Stealing from you? What unseemly things are you hiding?" Xue Qiong stared fiercely at Xue Yao, "Those colorful ones you burned in the copper basin the day before yesterday, what were they? Tell me honestly, or else, I'll go and have the old lady search your chest right now!"
Xue Yao was shocked, how did this kid know that he was secretly burning things in the house?
He burned all the redeemed food packages, obviously with the doors and windows closed tightly, so there was no way he could have been detected!
