Chapter 186 A pool of deep water
After listening to Nian Nu's clear explanation of everything that happened in Meiyuan, Li Sui, who was sitting in front of the fire, smiled and rolled the back of his hands without any surprise in his expression.
"Since Yue Zhaoyi entered the palace, His Majesty has always been very tolerant to her. Even Concubine Shu has repeatedly lost face in front of her. I never thought that Your Majesty would scold Yue Zhaoyi for the color screen today -"
"Color screen?"
Li Sui raised his eyes when he heard this, but took back his hand disapprovingly, took a sip of tea and said calmly: "Your Majesty is angry today, and it is not because of the color screen."
Upon hearing this, Nian Nu and Yu Nu's eyes met and they remained silent, while Li Sui put down the teacup and fell into deep thought.
Emperor Yuan Cheng seemed to be a gentle and tolerant benevolent emperor, but in fact he had already developed a sensitive and suspicious temper during his struggle with Yang Chongyuan's erratic nature.
Today, he had just gone to Meiyuan on a sudden impulse, and Yue Zhaoyi followed him. This was clearly telling Emperor Yuan Cheng that not only Yang Chongyuan, a powerful minister, was in the palace, but also the Turkic forces headed by Yue Zhaoyi also had intentions.
The act of spying on him in secret had some evil intentions.
People say that when the emperor is angry, millions of people will be killed.
It can be seen that no one can easily criticize the majesty of the emperor, but today Yue Zhaoyi openly contradicted Emperor Yuan Cheng in front of the palace people for Jiang Lihua, relying on Princess Pengcheng and Tujue.
Such ignorance means that no matter how good-tempered Emperor Yuan Cheng is, he is still the emperor who is inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people. Tolerance once or twice is magnanimity, and tolerance three times or four times means that the city has to endure it. But if he is betrayed by others again
If you continue to press and still don't respond, then you are incompetent.
Emperor Yuan Cheng, who already hated Yang Chongyuan to the core, would never let an Ashina Ayi appear or an ambitious Turkic foreigner question his majesty as emperor.
After all, it was Ashina Ayi who, as a Turkic princess, had been pampered too much in her life. She really thought that relying on the Turks, she could dominate Chang'an. The most important thing was that she had misjudged Emperor Yuan Cheng.
The truth about how Emperor Yuan Cheng loved her in every possible way.
The emperor will not fall in love with a woman easily, let alone a foreign woman. Everything is just for gain and power.
"Princess Princess——"
Hearing Nian Nu's voice coming from beside him, Li Sui looked over silently, but saw that Nian Nu was hesitant to speak, and then he raised his jaw and said, "What?"
Seeing Li Sui's inquiry, Niannu thought for a while, and finally hesitated in a low voice: "I am worried whether Caiping will really be used by the princess. If Caiping truly admires Your Majesty in the future, will he turn back -"
After hearing Nian Nu's worried words, Li Sui's expression did not change at all, except that his eyes looking at the fire were a little more profound, but there was a hint of indifference on his lips.
How many women in this world wouldn't like the young and handsome emperor? What's more, someone as gentle as Emperor Yuan Cheng would have deceived my sister into having no children in her life.
But Jiang Lihua doesn't know how to do it, and she doesn't dare to.
Nowadays, the harem is a deep pool of water. As a guilty minister, Yang Lihua is not even qualified to compete with others. Whether it is Ajie, Shufei or Yue Zhaoyi, she can be left behind just by her status and family background.
Now that she was almost thrown into a violent cell by Yue Zhaoyi for the first time, her path in the future will not be safer than it is now.
If her life in Yeting was like walking on thin ice before, now she is undoubtedly walking on a knife's edge when she sets foot in the harem.
If she wants to survive, Jiang Lihua has no choice but to find a strong supporter.
In the previous life, when Yang Chongyuan ascended the throne as the emperor and empress, Jiang Lihua was able to serve the new emperor as the old concubine of the former dynasty, and was favored, avoiding the consequences of being born as a nun or being given to the princes and nobles like a plaything. Such decisive methods, sober
With her mind, it can be seen that her relationship with Emperor Yuan Cheng did not have much.
"Whether she wants illusory love or life, this question must not be difficult for her."
While speaking, Li Sui silently withdrew his gaze towards Tan Huo. When he saw Nian Nu and Yu Nu facing each other in surprise, Li Sui smiled and did not say anything further.
At this moment, footsteps sounded slowly. Li Sui raised his eyes and motioned for Nian Nu to go out and investigate. After a moment, Nian Nu walked in with admiration and whispered: "Princess Princess, it's really as you guessed.
Just now, Princess Pengcheng went to the Zichen Palace to work as a lobbyist, and when she came out, Your Majesty promoted Jiang Lihua to the imperial edict."
Hearing this result, Li Sui smiled confidently, already having everything in his hands.
Although Jiang Lihua was just the lead in today's conflict between Emperor Yuan Cheng and Ashina Ayi, Emperor Yuan Cheng should be very clear that if he returns Jiang Lihua to Yeting Palace, not only will the Turks think that he is really constraining them,
It is better to personally deliver Jiang Lihua's life into the hands of Ashina Ayi and let her eradicate her.
Whether it was for the majesty of the emperor or the dignity of a man, he would never act like this.
But with Princess Pengcheng, a sober peacemaker, there, she would never let such an insignificant maid enter the harem again, causing chaos, causing Emperor Yuan Cheng to alienate himself from the Turks, and affecting the alliance.
So the best thing is the current result.
Although a female official serving the imperial edict is not a concubine or a noble master, she is no longer a humble slave, but a person with a seventh-rank official position, who can receive a salary and accompany her every day.
Even if Yue Zhaoyi wanted to make things difficult, she had to restrain herself under the eyes of Emperor Yuan Cheng.
…
In this room, the Qingsi Hall is completely pure.
Concubine Shu was leaning on the couch, holding a scroll in her hands. Although her eyes fell on the scroll, her thoughts seemed not to be there.
When she heard about Yu Xiao's return report to Meiyuan, Concubine Shu's lips showed a hint of ridicule: "Zhaoyi is really stupid this month."
Yuxiao on the side nodded her head and smiled when she heard the words: "Yue Zhaoyi has always been domineering and unreasonable in his actions. He is not as good as you, my lady -"
Hearing these flattering words, Concubine Shu's eyes flickered lightly, she stretched out her hand and looked at her well-maintained right hand and the beautiful crocodile on it and said: "The emperor is rich in the world, not to mention the harem, even the women in the world are his majesty's people, she
If you can eradicate one person, can you possibly eradicate everyone in the world?"
Thinking of this, Concubine Shu only felt stupid and shook her head.
If it were her, she could just push him to the dragon bed of Emperor Yuan Cheng, so why not? He was just a little maidservant, and he was not qualified to be a chess piece in her hands, so there was no need to dirty her hands.
She did not hesitate to offend Dragon Scales and deal with it herself.
If Zhaoyi had not been supported by Princess Pengcheng and the Turks this month, the grass on the grave would have been several feet deep.
"Since Yue Zhaoyi is unhappy with Na Jiang, let her find a way to vent her anger -"
Having said this, Concubine Shu looked at Yu Xiao beside her and said, "Didn't you just tell He Lianrong that Jiang's mother was still in Yeting Palace and tell her family Zhaoyi about it? If you don't let them tell Zhaoyi,
Yi burns this fire clean and extinguishes today's shame, then there will be no point in it."
After hearing Concubine Shu's words, Yu Xiao looked up and saw that Concubine Shu's lips still had a gentle and gentle curve, but in her eyes there was a faint expression of indifference, ruthlessness, and even ruthlessness that regarded life in the world as grass and trees, and even cruelty.
Thinking of this, Yu Xiao quickly lowered her head and quietly retreated.
Seeing that Yu Xiao had already walked away, Yu Han thought for a while and finally said cautiously: "Madam, I heard that Jiang's appearance is very confusing. If I stay with Your Majesty like this, will it happen -"
Hearing Yu Han's worry, Concubine Shu looked away indifferently and said without any warmth in her words: "The most important thing in this harem is beauty. If you peel off the skin and draw the blood, they are just disgusting bodies.
"
Seeing that Yuhan's expression changed after hearing this, Concubine Shu smiled softly, lowered her head and caressed her pinched belly, and said firmly and lowly: "What the harem lacks is an heir, a prince, and the future lord of the world.
"
"Whether it is the Zheng family who used to be self-righteous or the Ashina family who is now domineering and rude, they all take the emperor's love and favor too seriously——"
They are destined to be beautiful here, and they will only die here.
As for her, she was already dead the moment she knew the true face of Emperor Yuan Cheng, but it was her heart that died.
There are so many men in the world, let alone the emperor. How can the illusory love between men and women be more important than the queen mother's position?
Now she only needs to watch Ashina become her perfect leader like Zheng before, helping her remove all the obstacles in her way, and wait until she can safely give birth to this child.
