I was eating cakes with my left hand and drinking tea with my right hand. Perhaps because I was in a happy mood, I suddenly felt that the cakes in my hand were particularly delicious, so I couldn't help but eat a few more pieces.
Just when he wanted to stand up and thank him, he was horrified to find that his legs and feet were weak and unable to exert any strength at all. This sudden change made him panic.
Realizing his current situation, he looked at the so-called empress in horror, and said with a dying breath, "Empress, why...why do I feel so weak?"
The weak Ling Yun found it very difficult to even speak. He wanted to know what was going on, but he saw Concubine He staring at him with a smile, her eyes full of disdain.
Concubine He stood up from her seat, took two or three steps forward, and said mockingly, "Master Ling, do you feel weak and want to sleep?"
Ling Yun could only nod, and asked weakly again, "Mother, what on earth is going on?"
Concubine He raised her feet again, walked to him, lowered her head and leaned close to his ear, whispering softly, "Master Ling, let me tell you a secret. My surname is actually He..."
"How...how is it possible?"
Ling Yun was stunned. At this moment, he realized what had happened. It turned out that this person... was actually setting a trap for him, and he actually jumped into the trap willingly.
He wanted to struggle, but found that he couldn't move at all, and he fell into a drowsy state and passed out.
After Ling Yun fell, Concubine He stood up instantly, glanced at the fallen person with disgust, then looked at the palace maid next to her expressionlessly, and said coldly, "Someone, take this little bastard down."
At the same time, on the other side of the palace, a palace maid happily stepped into the palace room until she entered the door. She waited respectfully in front of the door and waited for the announcement.
At this time, a palace maid entered the room and whispered to the girl in front of the dressing table, "Princess Qi, Concubine He of Qianning Palace sent someone to find her."
The woman was slightly startled and said in surprise, "Oh? Why did she send someone here?"
"I don't know, but the palace maid who sent the message said that Concubine He of Qianning Palace intends to apologize to you, and please be sure to go there."
The woman sneered and said disdainfully, "She will also apologize? Haha... That sounds nice. Relying on the favor of my father, that bitch used to run against me a lot in the past. She doesn't make trouble for me on weekdays.
That’s considered burning incense. Would she want to apologize to this princess? What a joke!”
The woman spoke, but the palace maid did not dare to interrupt. She only waited until her voice fell and then asked cautiously, "Then...Princess, did the slave help you refuse?"
"No need, I, the princess, want to see what that bitch wants to do."
So he led the people towards Qianning Palace until he was next to Concubine He. Without saying anything, he glared at her and then asked, "Why did you call this princess here?"
Concubine He Guifei looked at the aggressive visitor, and for the first time she was not angry. Instead, she enthusiastically stepped forward and took her hand, saying gently, "Princess Yucheng is here, please sit down quickly."
Concubine He changed her usual behavior, which surprised Princess Yucheng. She looked at her in disbelief and couldn't figure out what kind of medicine this person had taken wrong, and he actually took the initiative to hold her hand.
Who would have thought that Princess Yucheng would not appreciate Concubine He's overtures at all, and brushed her hand away without mercy, while shouting loudly, "What are you going to do? Let me go quickly."
Logically speaking, being yelled at or even brushed would be displeasing. However, although Concubine He was furious in her heart, she remained calm on the outside. Instead, she smiled and explained, "Don't be angry, Princess Yucheng. I am just
I just want to invite you to sit here, and I have no other intention."
Princess Yucheng stared at Concubine He's face, snorted, and said with disdain, "Humph~ I remember correctly, I have no friendship with Concubine He, and I don't need your hypocritical concern. I tell you, this princess,
Never use your hypocritical relationships here, otherwise I will sound disgusting."
Concubine He still maintained a stiff fake smile on her face, which did not change at all because of Princess Yucheng's sarcasm.
It can be seen from this that Concubine He is such a master, no wonder she can play with Ling Yun in the palm of her hand.
"Why did Princess Yucheng say this? Although I had been unhappy with Princess Yucheng in the past, today I actually want to apologize to Princess Yucheng. She is so sincere and not as hypocritical as Princess Yucheng said."
Concubine He's face was sincere, making it impossible to tell the slightest bit of hypocrisy. It seemed that she really invited Princess Yucheng to come as she said, but in fact she sincerely wanted to apologize and wipe out the past grudges.
What Concubine He did not expect was that Princess Yucheng, who was not big or small, would be so difficult to deal with. No matter how hard she spoke, she still refused to let go.
"I apologize, haha... I just said why is it different today? It turns out that the sun is rising in the west. Otherwise, how could Concubine He from Qianning Palace say the words "apologize" in front of this princess?
How ridiculous! Hahaha..."
As soon as these words came out, Concubine He's face turned pale, and she gritted her teeth with hatred.
Finding that Concubine He was silent, Princess Yucheng did not stop there, but continued to mock, "What, could it be that what I just said touched Concubine He's pain?"
Concubine He sighed softly, with a look of disappointment on her face, and then said in frustration, "Hey! Princess Yucheng doesn't want to believe it. Even if I break my throat, I can't change Princess Yucheng's opinion. So, I have to remain silent."
.”
Seeing that the person in front of her was arguing with her, Princess Yucheng felt a little uncomfortable for a while, and suddenly her tone softened.
"You...what you said sounds nice, but you don't know what bad intentions you have in mind."
Perhaps because of her chattering, she felt dry for a moment. When she saw the teapot on Xiaoyu's table, she walked up to it, poured a cup of tea, and drank it all.
When Concubine He saw this scene, the gloom on her head disappeared in an instant. Looking at Princess Yucheng who was pouring one cup and then another, she couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth slightly, overjoyed.
In a voice that only he could hear, he murmured to himself, "What an unexpected surprise. I thought the plan had changed, but I didn't expect that she bumped into me by herself. What an unexpected surprise!"
As Concubine He stopped speaking, Princess Yucheng's body suddenly softened and she fainted to the ground in an instant.
