The little princess was young and stubborn, and looked at Bai Wanzhu with wet eyes.

"Fangnian has been practicing dancing since he was a child, and he asked Sister Bai to teach him."

In front of so many people, Bai Wanzhu couldn't express her pain.

But this little princess insisted on deciding a winner today.

When the Queen Mother saw that Concubine Shu could not come down to the stage, she said:

"Fangnian, your concubine sister is just joking. Concubine Shu is just making a few gestures casually."

"When it comes to dancing, among the Ai family's harem, you are the one who deserves to be spared."

"From now on, when your emperor's brother feels tired from dealing with political affairs, you can relieve his fatigue in the Aijia Palace."

The Queen Mother's comfort was still effective.

Upon hearing that he could see the emperor more often in the future, Huo Fangnian nodded, smiled lightly, ran back to Princess Liaodong and sat down next to Princess Liaodong with her skirt in hand.

Shen Yao sneered in her heart. Lu Lingchuan once scolded her for giving him away and sold him for a good price. Isn't the Queen Mother's move today also using him as a favor?

Although the Queen Mother came to the rescue, Bai Wanzhu's expression was extremely bad, and she looked at Shen Yao repeatedly with a pair of eyes full of hatred.

"Sister, noble concubine, I heard that your Majesty granted marriage to Mr. Xue Xiaohou and Miss Yong'an Hou. Your cousin from the Shen family even jumped into the Taiye Pond for this purpose."

"This marriage granted by the royal family is a great honor. This move by Shen Wei clearly shows contempt for the royal family. Your second uncle is also some kind of imperial censor. Does he want to impeach himself this time?"

Bai Wanzhu was furious and could no longer hold back her inner impulse.

"What Concubine Shu said is absolutely true. I think my father and second uncle will definitely severely punish my useless cousin."

Shen Yao replied seriously, "Since it is difficult for my second uncle to take up the post of censor, I will immediately write a letter to him to advise him to resign from Your Majesty. Then I will severely punish my Shen family for the crime of contempt for the majesty of the royal family."

After she finished speaking, she did not look at Lu Lingchuan who was sitting in the seat. She covered her face with a fan, raised the glass cup in her hand, and took a sip of wine to moisten her throat.

"Nonsense!"

Lu Lingchuan couldn't help but scolded.

"Shen Qian is my most important minister. I have already rewarded and appeased Shen's daughter when she jumped into the lake."

"Concubines are not allowed to interfere in politics. Concubine, you are not allowed to discuss matters in the court!"

Lu Lingchuan said with a headache, if either Shen Feng or Shen Qian proposed to become an official, then there would be several piles of notes on his desk every day.

It would be strange if he was exhausted to death!

"I, my concubine, will obey your Majesty's teachings!"

Shen Yao followed Shan Ruliu's reply. She knew that Lu Lingchuan could not do without his second uncle's efforts in eliminating corruption and abuse of power among court officials.

Bai Wanzhu looked gray and pinched her left hand with her right hand, leaving a bloody mark.

At this time, although the emperor's words were called "beating Shen Yao", they actually showed the importance he attached to the Shen family.

"Shu Fei, your position is close to the stage. I can enjoy the show next to you!"

Shen Yao stood up, smiling and swaying, approaching Bai Wanzhu step by step.

Although everyone could see that Concubine Shu and the imperial concubine were not compatible, under the eyes of everyone, the imperial concubine behaved well and was stunningly beautiful. The reasons she gave sounded reasonable on the surface, so everyone moved away from these two people. eyes.

Everyone either continued chatting or said compliments to the emperor and the queen mother.

At this time, the performances of the ladies took a break and were replaced by the Liyuan.

Hua Dan is on the stage, dragging out her long dramatic voice gracefully and fluently.

The Queen Mother loved to watch plays, and she was already fascinated by it.

Shen Yao had already walked up to Bai Wanzhu, glanced at the stage, and shook the fan in her hand regretfully.

"Sister, the view here is excellent. It's a pity that I don't like to watch this show."

After she finished speaking, she leisurely returned to her seat in the corner.

The actress on the stage flicked her sleeves, took small steps to smooth things over, and sang sonorously, "Who is going to Nanjing City to deliver the message to me, Saburo..."

Singing continued on the stage, but Bai Wanzhu was restless, and she had large rashes all over her body.

So I couldn't help but scratch my cheeks and neck with my hands.

"Mother, what's wrong with you?" someone exclaimed,

The anomaly in Bai Wanzhu's place finally attracted everyone's attention.

The Queen Mother ordered the troupe to stop. She did not blame Bai Wanzhu for spoiling the fun and ordered,

"Help Concubine Shu to the side hall and order the imperial doctor to come and watch her."

Bai Wanzhu's personal palace maid Lingli and a nun came forward and took her down.

After a while, Zhang Songhe came back in a hurry from the hospital. He looked nervous and whispered into the emperor's ear.

"Slave dog, if you have anything you can't say in front of the Aijia, what happened to Wanzhu'er?"

The Queen Mother said angrily.

"Say it!" Lu Lingchuan's eyes were eager, as if he glanced at Shen Yao accidentally.

"This?" Zhang Songhe hesitated for a moment, but still mumbled his answer.

"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother, Concubine Shu is suspected to be infected with leprosy."

"what!"

The white jade wine cup in the Queen Mother's hand fell to the ground with a clang.

In an instant, there was a panic in Hanyuan Hall, and the ladies and ladies who were usually dignified and prudent wanted to run away.

"Why panic! The emperor is here, and he will be protected by the real dragon!"

The Queen Mother looked at everyone in the palace one by one with cold eyes.

"Zhang Songhe, did you make a mistake in your diagnosis? Concubine Shu was fine and was just brought back from Wanfo Temple. How could she be infected with the disease?"

"Empress Dowager, I am only making a preliminary judgment. Concubine Shu's condition has just begun and needs to be observed. Just for safety reasons, the palace must be fumigated with moxa to eliminate toxins, especially the Zichen Palace where she has lived in the past two days. It is connected in all directions and is not far away from Your Majesty. It’s also close,…”

As soon as she heard that it would affect the emperor, the Queen Mother panicked. Compared with her son, she could clearly weigh the importance of her niece.

Lu Lingchuan held the Queen Mother's trembling hand to comfort her.

Then he decisively ordered, "Zhang Songhe, why are you hesitating? Send people to handle everything immediately. If there are not enough people, we will draw them from the Forbidden Army."

In the Hanyuan Hall, the silk and bamboo had stopped, and the fine wine and food had become useless.

The nobles who went to Beijing not only smelled of mugwort all over their bodies, but also had to drink a bowl of bitter concoction before they could leave.

At the same time, none of the ministers attending the banquet in the imperial garden escaped such treatment.

Shen Yao pinched her nose, poured a bowl of medicine, led Chun Nong and Xia He to the entrance of the palace, and planned to take the sedan chair back to Changxin Palace.

Today's Queen Mother's birthday banquet has reached such a stage that people are panicking and cannot go on.

"Your Majesty, your Majesty has asked your servant to ask you to go to the Qinzheng Hall for questioning."

Just as she was about to get on the sedan, a round head knelt in front of Shen Yao, and Wang Dafu's voice suddenly reached her ears.

Qinzheng Hall has always been a place where important matters of the previous dynasty were dealt with. Lu Lingchuan asked her to go there, but he didn't know what peace of mind he had.

Hanyuan Hall is located behind Qinzheng Hall, and it only takes half a cup of tea to turn around.

Even so, Shen Yao still got on the sedan chair.

Dealing with that dog emperor, taking too much effort, will always shorten her life. Therefore, she must be more diligent in taking care of herself.

"Isn't Your Majesty very busy at the moment? Where can I find the time to find my mother-in-law?"

Chun Nong was uneasy and asked Wang Dafu to tell him something.

Wang Dafu scratched his head, but he couldn't answer.

I just glanced at Shen Yao silently. This imperial concubine is really beautiful today.

Your Majesty is not blind, but why did he summon the imperial concubine to the place where he was discussing affairs with the ministers?

Entering the Qinzheng Hall, Lu Lingchuan stood with his back on his back and his hands on his back, with a majestic posture.

And around him stood eight tall and majestic Imperial Guards.

Sure enough, the rift with this guy is getting deeper and deeper now. As soon as she comes, he will give her a blow.

Shen Yao looked at the cold swords, axes and halberds held by the imperial guards with hatred in her heart.

Then he silently stroked his slender neck.

How tragic it would be if a beauty lost her head.

She put away all the random thoughts in her head, bowed Shen Yao and said hello to Lu Lingchuan.

She only heard a cold snort from above her head and the voice of the dog emperor scolding her.

"My concubine, you interfered with the Queen Mother's holy life. Do you know your guilt?"
