Concubine Fang was startled by the loud shout, and even Jin Xin and Concubine Lan were also startled.
Concubine Fang felt uneasy. Seeing Emperor Long Yan furious, she quickly knelt down and stepped forward, "Your Majesty, calm down."
"Why are you doing this?" The emperor looked at Concubine Fang. She was not very young, but all the things she did were very vicious.
The emperor wanted to keep her, but if she really wanted to do evil, what excuse could he use to keep her?
Fang Concubine's chin was held by the emperor, and she looked at her with disappointment. Fang Concubine's fear was true, but when the emperor looked at her with such disappointed eyes, Fang Concubine naturally felt heartbroken.
Concubine Fang was speechless. She was unwilling to be reprimanded like this, but she was caught in the act again. Her mind was full of fear now, and she couldn't think of any other excuse to defend herself. She could only accept her fate.
"Your Majesty, please don't accuse my concubine unjustly. The matter was done by my slave and has nothing to do with my concubine." Huarong knelt down, looking calm as if she was going to die.
Fangbi was stunned and did not dare to speak.
The emperor let go of the concubine and looked at Huarong, his brows furrowed as if you were going to continue talking.
It seems that he is willing to accept this reason.
Huarong sighed, thought about it, and said, "This slave made her own decision. This matter has nothing to do with concubine Fang. A few days ago, concubine Yi had a dispute with my master, and my master was wronged for it. The two had an argument. Once upon a time, my mistress slapped Concubine Yi, but she never thought that concubine Yi held a grudge and secretly made things difficult for my mistress many times after she was favored. She humiliated my mistress several times, saying that she would not serve the emperor. She seduced the emperor so shamelessly, The emperor wanted to continue to favor her, which made her even more arrogant. She was from a humble background and was not a good family girl. The emperor favored her so much that the servant couldn't stand it. So the servant took it upon herself to teach her a lesson. She never thought that she would fall off the cliff by mistake. ”
Jin Xin clicked her tongue twice in her heart, Hua Rong was about to die, and she had no scruples about anything she said.
Is this what she can say?
Yibi's background is indeed humble, but this is not a matter of publicity. At least the emperor wants her to come from a good family, not a thin horse from Yangzhou.
As soon as Hua Rong said these words, it was first pointed out that Concubine Yi was not of a righteous background. The emperor continued to favor her because she was deliberately blindfolded and greedy.
After Hua Rong finished speaking, the concubine looked at the emperor, her eyes pitiful and aggrieved.
The emperor's face was not so good, but at least he was not as angry as before. He chose to let Concubine Fang go, but said, "Concubine Fang, all the people in your palace can be your master. What your master does is just a little bit." Don’t you know?”
Concubine Fang quickly knelt down and lowered her eyes, knowing that she should act aggrieved at this moment, and said, "Your Majesty, I really don't know that Huarong made her own decisions, but I also admit that I was wrong. It was my fault that I didn't control it well. Please The emperor punishes her, but please spare her life."
The emperor half-squinted his eyes and looked at the concubine, "Conspiracy to murder the concubine is a serious crime that brings harm to the family, but you still want me to save her life. Do you really think that I need the Liu family, and that's why you are so unscrupulous? ?”
When Concubine Fang heard this, she trembled with fright and hurriedly knelt on the ground, "I don't dare, I have no such intention."
"It's best if you don't have it."
Then he added, "Huarong despised the emperor's power, deceived the master, and plotted to murder the concubine. The crime is unforgivable. Pull him down and kill him with a stick."
When Huarong heard this, she resigned herself to her fate and closed her eyes without struggling at all.
On the contrary, it was the concubine who looked at the emperor emotionally and said, "Please spare Hua Rong, please spare her life. Don't kill her."
The emperor was very tired and didn't want to speak at all. He pinched his eyebrows and waved impatiently with one hand. The servant next to him pulled the concubine aside.
Hua Rong was then taken down without resisting at all, knowing her end.
She looked at Concubine Fang and said, "Mother, I've left. Please take care of yourself, eat well, sleep well, and don't make things difficult for yourself."
Fangbi collapsed, crying hysterically, and wanted to grab Huarong, but the slave held her, and she couldn't even reach Huarong, so she could only watch as Huarong was taken away.
In the room, except for the sound of the concubine crying, all was silent.
Then, the sound of sticks was slapped in the yard. Huarong could bear it at first, but then when there were more than a dozen sticks, she began to wail, and at first the sound was thin, and gradually there was no movement.
Fangbi felt guilty and blamed herself, so she just cried.
Not long after, he came back to report and said, "To your Majesty, Huarong has died."
Concubine Fang sat on the ground, closing her eyes in pain.
The emperor waved his hand and let them go out.
It was late at night and everyone was very tired.
The emperor looked towards the screen, and the imperial doctor also came out at this time.
"Go back to the emperor. After applying the medicine, I can't save my concubine's face, but my life can be saved."
The emperor felt a little regretful and said, "Get some good medicinal materials for treatment."
Jin Xin saw that he was also very tired and needed an excuse to leave. He had been exhausted for a long time today.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Yi has a doctor here. Your health is the most important thing. You should go back and rest first. If anything happens, I will take care of it."
The emperor hummed, looked at Jin Xin, and was very pleased, "Thank you for your hard work here."
Before standing up, the emperor glanced at the concubine and said coldly, "You should go back to the palace tomorrow."
Concubine Fang was now in sorrow and was about to be sent back to the palace. She felt even more uncomfortable. She could do nothing but accept her fate.
If she had known earlier, she should have listened to Hua Rong.
The excitement of this day comes one after another, Jin Xin thought to herself.
Concubine Fang was taken back by the servants. Concubine De Gui and Concubine Lan were the only ones left in the room. Concubine Yi over there drank the soothing soup and fell asleep. There is still this Wanqin left. The slave is not like a slave, nor is the master. The master, who was squirming just now, can only stand straight now.
Concubine Lan and Jin Xin walked back together.
"Seeing that the emperor's concubine's face was ruined, he felt very sorry for her." Concubine Lan said.
"She is just a beauty, and there will be no shortage of her in the palace. She just has many tricks to serve the emperor. Now that her face is gone, how can the emperor still pity her?"
"It would be better if the Pian Qin beside her doesn't cause any trouble." Concubine Lan reminded.
"I see that her mind is quite lively, I'm afraid she might be restless." Jin Xin raised her eyebrows.
After hearing this, Concubine Lan saw Jin Xin's slightly suggestive meaning and understood Jin Xin's intention. She smiled and said, "No matter how lively you are, you are still an inconspicuous slave. Don't worry, my queen."
"It's getting late, let's take a rest early." Jin Xin walked to her residence and smiled at Concubine Lan.
Concubine Lan's residence is next door to hers.
After Jin Xin entered, Concubine Lan said to the maid beside her, "Find someone to take care of the piano."
If there is chaos, let's all be in chaos. Anyway, the concubine is responsible for this matter, so it doesn't matter if there is one more suspect.
The emperor may not care.
Concubine Lan wanted to be in the same team as Concubine De Gui forever, so she naturally had to do something to surrender.
The matter of taking the piano was her certificate of surrender.
