Seeing her wishing card being hung up, Jin Xin looked at the wishing card expectantly. Her wish could not be made public, but she hoped that the gods would favor her.
She will also work hard to move forward towards this goal and strive for everything she wants.
"Let's go." Jin Xin said.
"Your Majesty, please go back to the carriage first. I also want to make a wish. I'll be here soon," he said.
Jin Xin nodded and walked back to the carriage with Lian Rong's help.
Gu Zhao dismissed the people around him and asked them to wait beside the carriage.
Then, he picked up the wishing card, wrote down what he wanted, picked up three sticks of incense, knelt in front of the sacred tree, and kowtowed three times respectfully and piously.
Then hung up.
He was being urged over there to hurry up and start back to the palace without delay.
He said, "I'll be ready soon."
After hanging up, he bowed three more times and hurried towards the team.
The wishing card swayed with the breeze, and it clearly read, "May she have a smooth life and good health until she is 100 years old." 】
Fortunately, he didn't waste much time and returned to Cheng'en Palace smoothly.
But it was a little quiet along the way, and I could vaguely feel that the atmosphere in the palace was a bit gloomy. When I passed the palace gates, they were all closed.
Back in the palace, Cui Gu followed. The master and servant were not in a hurry to speak, but entered the inner room. Lianrong closed the door, and Cui Gu came forward.
As soon as Jin Xin sat down, Cuigu whispered in Jin Xin's ear, "The matter is not done. The cat is locked in a cage, and the emperor is in the Golden Wind and Jade Dew Palace."
Jin Xin frowned, "How is she?"
"I was bitten on the hand by Laifu. The injury was quite serious, but it's nothing serious." Cui Gu said with some regrets.
Jin Xin asked someone to dress up in Concubine Yu's clothes to tease Laifu, and trained her for a month to attack her whenever she smelled Concubine Yu's scent.
I thought I would let this matter go while I was leaving the palace today, but I didn't expect that Concubine Yu's fetus was really stable, sticking to her belly as if it was stained with paste, and it would not fall out.
At this time, Caihong said outside, "Your Majesty, the Emperor has sent someone to tell you that after your Majesty returns to the palace, she should go to the Golden Wind and Jade Dew Palace."
The three masters and servants looked at each other, and Lianrong hurriedly said, "I understand, the queen is changing her clothes."
"Cuigu, please keep an eye on Hong'er in the palace. Lianrong, let's go there." Jin Xin said calmly.
After changing his clothes, he went to the Jinfeng Yulu Hall in a sedan chair.
The lights in the hall were bright, and Concubine Yu could be heard crying inside, saying that the emperor would make the decision, and Laifu was locked in an iron cage outside the hall. He could still sleep at this moment, but when he saw Jinxin coming, Laifu He woke up immediately and picked up the cage excitedly.
Jin Xin walked into the palace and saw the emperor sitting there, frowning, silent and looking a little angry.
"I am here to see you, Your Majesty." Jin Xin stepped forward and saluted immediately.
The emperor raised his head and looked at Jin Xin, seeing a tired look on her brows. He thought she was very tired after such a day of hard work.
But Concubine Yu refused to give up and insisted on calling Concubine De to confront her.
"I called you here because Concubine Yu was injured by your cat and her fetus was affected. You also need to take half of the responsibility for this matter." The emperor said.
Concubine Yu cried, looked at Jin Xin with stern eyes, and said angrily, "Concubine Degui, why do you want to kill me? I am already trapped in the cold palace, why can't you even tolerate a small life?"
Why? When she attacked Hong'er, she didn't ask her why. How dare she ask herself now?
Jin Xin did not answer Concubine Jade, but looked at the Emperor, with a calm expression, and said slowly, "Your Majesty, Laifu was raised by my concubine. This temperament is indeed a bit difficult to tame, but this is not the first time it has escaped from the cage. I also visited other concubines, and they were all sent back well, and I didn’t hear that anyone was hurt, but it was so unkind to Concubine Yu. Did Concubine Yu find someone to drive it away?"
Hearing this, Concubine Jade stood up angrily, "You are a cat that jumped onto the palace wall for no reason. You stand on the wall and want to bite me. Can't I drive you away?"
"This cat is a rebellious thing. The more you try to provoke it, the more it will take revenge. Although I am at fault in this matter, Concubine Yu is not without fault." Jin Xin remained calm, without any emotion. Ups and downs, facing the bandaged wound on her arm, he was just surprised for a moment, and then regained his composure.
It does look quite heavy. The whole hand is covered, so the wound is probably not small.
"Your Majesty, I am pregnant with a child and was injured by her cat. You must make the decision." With that said, Concubine Jade knelt in front of the Emperor, grabbed the hem of his clothes, and began to cry again.
Jin Xin stood without speaking, looking to see what the emperor meant.
Just deal with it. Could it be that the newly promoted imperial concubine can be demoted back?
Jin Xin had determined last night that the emperor no longer cared as much about Concubine Yu as before, otherwise he would not have taken action at this time.
She just wanted to see the emperor's attitude.
The emperor was silent for a while and then said, "The imperial concubine is also innocent in this matter. I raised this cat for her. It was tamed by a special person. It has indeed never hurt anyone. Now that it has hurt someone, let him hang it." Alright."
Hearing this, Jin Xin frowned and said hurriedly, "Your Majesty, it's better not to kill Laifu. Just lock him up and send him to the Royal Beast Garden. After all, the three concubines in the palace are pregnant. For the sake of the child, don't kill him." Kill living creatures at will.”
After speaking, she looked at Concubine Yu and asked, "What do Concubine Yu think?"
When this question was asked to Concubine Yu, her face suddenly turned pale, and then she became angry and gritted her teeth and said, "Concubine has the final say in everything, isn't my life and the life of my child valuable?"
"You are also pregnant with a child. For the sake of the child, you should have some respect for life. If you hadn't found someone to drive away the blessing, you wouldn't have caused trouble."
When the emperor heard this, he also nodded and said, "The imperial concubine said the same thing. The three concubines in the palace are all pregnant. Cats have always been evil. It is better to be respectful and do as the imperial concubine wants."
Jin Xin raised her eyebrows. Looking at it this way, the emperor really didn't seem to care about Concubine Jade that much.
Perhaps, it was because she was carrying a dragon seed in her belly.
Concubine Yu was stunned, she couldn't believe that she was injured like this, yet the emperor didn't even look at her, he didn't even want to deal with this beast, yet he took Jiang Jinxin's words so seriously.
"Your Majesty! Don't you even care about our past friendship? She is just a beast. Does the Emperor want to protect a beast for her?" Concubine Yu was very dissatisfied.
"She is a noble concubine now, you have to pay attention to your status." The emperor reminded.
She started from the moment when Jinxin entered this door, and sang a song about you and me, with no dignity at all.
Concubine Yu was once again shocked by the emperor's words. If he was angry before, Concubine Yu understood it. She also figured it out and wanted to restore him. No matter how wronged or how angry he was, she would work hard.
But the emperor even protected Jiang Jinxin's cat and didn't take his own life seriously. What should she do?
Jin Xin looked at the pitiful, disappointed and confused look of the emperor facing Concubine Jade, and he really didn't react.
Transitioned?
In the past, he would have held the person in his arms and comforted her tenderly.
"Your Majesty, this cat must be killed!" Concubine Yu wiped away her tears with a firm attitude.
This was not simply a matter of competitiveness, but a competition for status between her and Jiang Jinxin. The emperor's attitude determined whether they would win or lose tonight.
