Rebirth: The imperial concubine is no longer jealous, and the emperor panics

Chapter 15 The beautiful face has not changed, but the heart is helpless

Bai Wanzhu was secretly happy when she couldn't hear the emperor speaking to save Concubine Shen.

She believed that she, with her gorgeous temples and graceful hair, was standing next to the drowned imperial concubine. The emperor's cousin was not blind, so he could naturally tell who was more beautiful.

The Empress Dowager's messenger, who was placed next to the emperor, just reported that the imperial concubine was openly spending time downstairs in Mingyue Downstairs where the emperor and civil servants were chatting during the day. Bai Wanzhu was very jealous in her heart.

Seeing Shen Yao in such a mess at this moment, how could she not take the opportunity to add insult to injury?

She twisted her waist slightly, came out from behind the Queen Mother, and walked in front of Shen Yao.

"Aunt, today is a good day for the Queen's sister to return to the palace. But this noble concubine clearly fell into the water on purpose, intending to seduce His Majesty. In this clear day, doing such a thing will make people criticize Xihe's harem as inappropriate. The noble concubine doesn't know Integrity.”

Although they occupied Zichen Palace, they did not occupy half of the former glory and favor of Zichen Palace. And this shameless Shen Yao was still restless despite being sent to that remote and shabby place.

Bai Wanzhu's words broke the long silence in Mingyue Tower.

After hearing this, the Queen Mother felt hatred in her heart. After her eyes stayed on Shen Yao's face for a moment, she looked at the emperor again.

"Your Majesty, how did the imperial concubine fall into the water today?"

The Queen Mother asked eagerly, with an undercurrent surging in her phoenix eyes. At the same time, she also tightened her grip on the string of Buddhist seven-jewel beads in her hand.

Lu Lingchuan didn't seem to hear the Queen Mother's words. He still looked at Shen Yao with narrow eyes, waiting for her to ask him. There was a hunting-like lust and cruelty in his eyes.

Shen Yao felt more clear-headed and determined. No matter how many sweet things Lu Lingchuan promised now, she would never make the same mistake again.

So at this time, no matter how the emperor winked to hint her and asked her to beg him, Shen Yao would not see it.

Today it is clear that the emperor is shameless and intends to get involved with her. But Shen Yao couldn't defend herself. She knew that whatever she said now would be wrong.

Before Lu Lingchuan could defend her, Shen Yao could only slump and kneel in silence.

"By not speaking, the emperor wants to favor the noble concubine?"

The Queen Mother was obviously getting angry, "The Ai family will come today to rectify this unhealthy trend."

"Queen, the concubine was disheveled during the day and tried to charm the Lord. So according to the law, what should be the punishment?" the Queen Mother asked in a deep voice.

"Mother, according to the law, if a concubine misbehaves, her status will be lowered, her salary will be deducted as a fine, and she will be grounded for more than one month."

Wang Yunling replied, "I just don't know what the truth is today. I would like to ask Your Majesty to decide."

Upon hearing that the queen wanted Lu Lingchuan to punish her, Shen Yao rolled her eyes secretly.

The last time Bai Wanzhu accepted the favor, the Queen Mother punished her. Lu Lingchuan didn't care at all and let her change from Zichen Palace to Changxin Palace.

Yes, she will be wronged again today.

Bai Wanzhu gently pulled the Queen Mother's sleeves and spoke.

"The queen's sister is the master of the harem. Your Majesty has everything to do. Aunt, the queen's sister should still make the decision on this matter."

Shen Yao knew that Bai Wanzhu's intention was nothing more than to let Shen Yao die and let Wang Yunling take the blame.

"What Wan Zhuer said is true. The queen should arrange the affairs of the harem well so that she can relieve the king's worries."

The Queen Mother looked at the people in Mingyue Tower again and said, "If I don't punish the noble concubine today, I may not be able to convince everyone."

Lu Lingchuan frowned and listened for a long time. It turned out that the three of them became tigers. The facts were not important. Shen Yao could be punished as long as she was given an unfounded charge.

If the officials of the previous dynasty handled the case in this way, how many innocent souls would be added to the Xihe dynasty.

The emperor had a dark face and said nothing, and the queen mother was so aggressive. Wang Yunling was caught in the middle and was very embarrassed.

She thought for a long time before speaking with difficulty.

"Then demote Concubine Shen to Concubine Shen, fine her with a salary of three months, and ban her from Changxin Palace for one month."

Bai Wanzhu wanted to applaud her. She couldn't hold back her joy and said bluntly, "Sister Queen enforces the law impartially, and I will obey you."

"Then just follow what the Queen said." The Queen Mother glanced at Shen Yao with disgust and scolded, "Concubine Shen, don't back down yet!"

Shen Yao was about to thank her and leave, but Lu Lingchuan walked up to her. The emotion in his eyes made her stunned for a moment.

There is actually remorse in the dog emperor's eyes? Still feeling distressed?

Could it be that she was dazzled.

Lu Lingchuan spoke majestically to everyone in Mingyue Tower.

"The queen is fair in this matter, but I don't know if the imperial concubine has anything to say to defend herself. Do other people have anything to say?"

Shen Yao sneered in her heart, this dog emperor really disappointed her as always. She said disdainfully, "I have nothing to say!"

Let those who have nothing to do, are trapped by love, and are trapped in a cocoon, return to the dust and white bones of the previous life.

She would no longer be trapped in the most gorgeous cage in the world for the rest of her life, nor would she let her heart get lost in the false dreams he spun again.

Lu Lingchuan took in the slender expression in his eyes, secretly exerted force on the fists in his sleeves, and clenched his knuckles until they turned white.

Fu Yuhan walked to the palace and knelt down towards the emperor and the queen mother.

Her eyes were clear and Lang Lang spoke, "I have the courage to plead for the noble concubine. The noble concubine accidentally fell into the water today and was already frightened. Taifu Shen tried his best to assist His Majesty in the previous court. If he heard that the noble concubine was punished after falling into the water, I don't know what will happen. I feel sorry for you. Please also ask Your Majesty, the Queen Mother, and the Queen to be punished lightly."

"Is there anyone else interceding for the imperial concubine?"

Lu Lingchuan asked again.

Seeing that no one spoke for Shen Yao anymore, Lu Lingchuan narrowed his eyes and stood with his back behind his back and his hands behind his back.

He looked at the blue sky through the window lattice, and there was only a loneliness like snow in his heart.

"Your Majesty, I still need your Majesty's instructions on how to punish Concubine Shen."

Wang Yunling asked cautiously. She looked at the emperor's pine-like green back, which was unique in the world, and she was filled with admiration.

Lu Lingchuan spoke, his cold voice carrying the majesty of an emperor that no one could question,

"Today, the imperial concubine slipped and fell into the water first, and I passed by behind. There is no suggestion of collusion. But it is also true that the imperial concubine has behaved inappropriately, so she will be grounded for one month and fined for three months."

"Your Majesty, since the salary has been paid, the concubine's grounding should be waived."

Fu Yuhan slowly opened her mouth and said that she couldn't stop reading the storybook she saw at the imperial concubine's place a few days ago. If the imperial concubine was banned, wouldn't she be unable to set foot in Changxin Palace?

Lin Mo'er and several lower-ranking concubines also knelt down and begged for mercy, "Your Majesty, please have mercy and don't ground the noble concubine."

The barbecue, tea and snacks served every afternoon in Changxin Palace are the human fireworks that soothe the loneliness of the palace.

"I have made up my mind, you all should step back."

Lu Lingchuan said in a deep voice, then looked at the Queen Mother, "Queen, take my mother back to Cining Palace for me. I will visit you later."

The sounds of concubines retiring could be heard behind them, and the sound of footsteps on the wooden ladder was getting farther and farther away.

Lu Lingchuan lifted the gauze curtain, followed by the empress dowager, and a lively group of people headed towards the bustling palace.

And leading to the lonely place in the deep palace, the delicate and lonely yellow figure was supported by the palace maid, and disappeared little by little in the pursuit of his eyes...

He still stared at the direction Shen Yao left for a long time.

"His Majesty."

"His Majesty!"

Wang Dafu's grinning voice sounded outside the door,

Lu Lingchuan realized that he had been looking at the void through the window for too long, too long...

It lasted so long that my eyes hurt.
