When Belle walked out of the Marquis's house disheveled, she heard some unpleasant comments...
A: "This cheap maid has come to seduce our Lord Marquis again."
B: "Isn't that right? It's shameless, you've become so ugly, and you still come to scare the Marquis."
C: "Oh, what do you know? Master Hou is obsessed with her and is good at bed."
A: "I think so. According to me, she looks so coquettish that she might as well go to a brothel. Being a slave is really overkill."
B and C covered their faces and chuckled...
Belle only felt that the laughter was so harsh...
Yes, even if she is not disfigured, she is just a girl next to the queen, so what qualifications do she have to be with Yan Zhonghou?
She put her hands on her chest, feeling the traces of her kiss just now. Maybe that person really loved her...
With Belle thinking this, she ran out of the Marquis's house in embarrassment. No one saw her tears, and no one knew her complicated mood.

"Yan Yu, does the sun come out from the west today? When did you take the initiative to look for me?" The emperor was surprised.
Yan Yu smiled: "Of course I came here to tell you something."
"Okay, I'm all ears."
"Your Majesty, why don't you abolish the Queen?" Yan Yu said, still smiling.
"What? The deposed queen? Yan Yu, are you mentally ill?" Mo Yu Wuhuan was really shocked.
"Now you have lost interest in the little queen, so she has no interest in occupying the queen's position. Just let whomever you like do it. Anyway, Wan Bing and Mrs. Cui Wei are already pregnant. Once the dragon is born,
The position of the little queen is not guaranteed, why not abolish it immediately?" Yan Yu analyzed seriously.
"Where did you hear this?" the emperor asked with a gloomy face.
"Do you still need to listen? Anyone can see this clearly." Yan Yu pursed her lips disapprovingly and said.
"Deposed empress? Where will Nuan Si go?" When the Emperor thought of Concubine Wan or Mrs. Cui Wei giving birth to a prince, Nuan Si's position was really not guaranteed, so what should she do?
"Sending him back to Xiliang may hurt the harmony between the two countries, so why not expel him from the palace? There are many people outside who are thinking about him?" Yan Yu said with a smile.
"Concerned about Duan Jinghan?" the emperor asked angrily.
Yan Yu shook his head: "Moreover, in addition to Duan Jinghan, I'm afraid Prince Deng and the Prime Minister's good son Bai Lian are also willing to take in the Queen."
"You wanton, Yan Yu, you guy, what nonsense are you talking about?" Mo Yu Wuhuan's face turned green with anger.
Yan Yu said coquettishly: "Wei Chen is telling the truth, so you, please depose the queen as soon as possible, so as not to delay the young queen's youth."
"Does she want to leave? I didn't get what I wanted. You go back to the house quickly. I don't want to see you in three days." He knew clearly that Yan Yu said this to deliberately anger himself, but he was still angry.
"Okay, there's no need to go to court early tomorrow." Yan Yu said as he swaggered out.
The method of provoking generals is the most useful to the emperor, right? The more you tell him to depose the queen, the less he will know it. Instead, it will arouse his strong possessive desire. Yan Yu knows him too well...
I happened to see Belle standing there not far away...
"Belle, I tried my best, really." Yan Yu murmured in her heart.
Xiluan Hall
"The Emperor has arrived."
"I, my concubine, pay my respects to the Emperor."
"Yes." The emperor's face was gloomy and he just snorted.
"You all go down." With an order, all the slaves were turned away...
"Your Majesty..." Nuan Si was about to speak when the Emperor grabbed him and picked him up.
"Mo Yu Wuhuan, what are you going to do?" Nuan Si shouted.
"You dare to call me by my name. It seems that the queen is becoming more and more courageous." After the emperor finished speaking, he placed the queen on the bed and leaned over her.
"I am in poor health..." Nuan Si was about to use physical discomfort as an excuse.
"Are you feeling unwell? Do you need me to seek consultation from five imperial doctors? Hmm?" Mo Yu Wuhuan's eyes were so complex that they almost looked like Nuan Si.
"No... no need." Nuan Si's eyes flickered and she turned her head to the side.
"The crime of deceiving the emperor is to punish the nine tribes. The queen is really courageous."
"Concubine... I don't understand what the emperor means."
"Do you really not understand? Don't you know whether the queen is sick?" The emperor said as he tore off the gauze covering Nuan Si's body.
With a tearing sound, the tulle was torn open, exposing a large area of skin on the chest...
"Your Majesty, there are many concubines in the harem? Why did you only find the concubine?" Nuan Si stared at Mo Yu Wuhuan angrily.
"Because you are my queen and we are husband and wife, have you forgotten?" After saying this, the emperor lowered his head and nibbled on Nuan Si's neck...
"Your Majesty, it was you who forced Sister Yuan to die, right?" Nuan Sixin said.
"Sister Yuan? Which sister?" the emperor asked.
"Concubine Yuan from the cold palace?" Nuan Si said word by word.
"Her?" The emperor smiled contemptuously: "She committed suicide. Why do you say I forced her to die?"
"Impossible, Sister Yuan can't commit suicide. It must be something you said that made her do that." Nuan Si retorted loudly.
"Why did the queen insist that it was me?" The emperor looked at Nuan Si with a flushed face with interest.
"If it wasn't you, why could you kill Xiuzhu and silence her?" Nuansi complained angrily.
"Xiuzhu? Who is it?"
"Your Majesty, stop pretending. Xiuzhu was Sister Yuan's maid. You killed her to silence her. I'm afraid no one knows better than you." Nuan Si finished in one breath.
The emperor stared at her for a moment, then raised his head and sighed: "It seems that someone in the palace has misbehaved and dared to stir up this trouble."
Nuansi said nothing, thinking that the emperor was saying that she was causing trouble...
"But these are not the most important things. The most important thing is..." After saying that, the emperor lowered his head again and kissed Nuan Si's lips.
"You murderous devil, don't touch me." Nuan Si shouted.
The emperor ignored her screams and forcibly tore off her tight-fitting panties, thrusting forward and piercing her body...
Nuan Si bowed her waist in pain, closed her eyes, and endured the sudden pain...
But this time she didn't scream out like before, nor did she cry out in pain. She bore all the pain alone...
"Nuansi, don't think about leaving. No one can protect you like me."
Nuan Si vaguely remembers the words the emperor said before leaving, protection? How ridiculous? He is the only person who hurt her...
"Empress, are you okay?" Belle walked in carefully. She was happy to see the emperor favoring the empress here. It seems that Yan Yu's words had an effect and he did not make a mistake. After all, the empress will not be treated like before.
Indifferent, it's a pity that she doesn't know how the emperor treats his empress.
Nuansi shook her head, indicating that it was okay...
"Mom, do you want to take a bath?" Belle asked carefully.
"No, Belle, I'm tired, I'm very tired." Nuan Si whispered tiredly.
The next day before Nuan Si got up, she heard a shocking news...
The late concubine had a miscarriage, and the abortion pill was given by the emperor...
"Belle, what's going on?" Nuansi asked blankly, without any response.
"My servant heard that a palace maid exposed the affair between Concubine Wan and another man. The emperor was furious and suspected that the dragon seed was impure, so he ordered people to abort the child in Concubine Wan's belly and consecrate Concubine Wan to a talented person.
"Bao'er recalled the exchanges between the eunuchs and maids in the palace.
"What? Adultery?" Nuan Si thought this was too outrageous. She knew best who the concubine was.
"Quick, let's go to Maple Leaf Pavilion." Nuan Si quickly stood up and changed clothes.
Wanfeng Pavilion
When Nuansi went in, he saw the concubine lying on the bed, her face as pale as a piece of paper.
"Sister Wan?" Nuansi called tentatively.
"What are you doing here?" Wan Bin said coldly.
"Sister Wan, let me see you. Are you feeling better?" Nuan Si said distressedly.
"Look at me? Look at how I am aborted and how I fall out of favor?" The late concubine smiled sarcastically.
"Sister Wan, what do you mean?" Nuansi heard that there was something wrong with Wan's words.
Concubine Wan turned her head and revealed a fierce look: "Ling Nuansi, I trust you so much in vain. You actually hurt me like this?"
"Sister, why are you doing this?" Nuan Si was puzzled.
"You are the only one who knows about his portrait, but now it suddenly fell into the hands of the emperor. Who else but you? No wonder you stopped me when I wanted to burn it. It turns out that you wanted to use a trick on me."
"No, it's not me, Sister Wan." Nuan Si panicked.
"Who else is it if it's not you? Don't make excuses. In the past, I just thought that I saw the wrong person, and it was a pity that the fetus in my belly was almost formed." Wan Bing said the sad part, and shed sad tears.
"Sister Wan, it's really not..." Nuan Si explained with tears.
"Go away, I don't want to see you again. If something happens to my brother because of this, I won't let you go." It was the first time Wan Bin said such cruel words.
Surprisingly, the emperor did not make any public announcement about this matter. The outside world only knew that the emperor saw the portrait of the adulterer and became furious, but the emperor did not question the person in the portrait.
Nuansi went to ask the emperor several times and wanted to redress the grievances of the concubine, but was stopped outside the palace gate.
"Your Majesty, please come back, the Emperor and Mrs. Lan have already rested." The eunuch guarding the gate of Youlan Yaju said in embarrassment.
Since Concubine Wan fell out of favor, the most favored ones in the palace were the pregnant Mrs. Cuiwei and Lady He Lan. Strangely enough, Concubine Xue was also favored originally, but since Concubine Wan fell out of favor, the emperor has never been to Zhaoxue again.
temple.
Only Nuan Si knows the reason for this, because the person in the portrait is Yu Guodong, Xue Concubine's biological brother. The emperor probably didn't want to involve Yu Guodong, so he suppressed the matter, but he still felt knotted in his heart every time he saw Xue Concubine.
It’s just pity that Concubine Xue fell out of favor inexplicably for some unknown reason...
On this day, the Queen Mother invited the concubines in the harem to have tea...
Zhongli Cuiwei sat next to the Queen Mother, looking like a hostess...
Nuan Si didn't say anything, but quietly walked to the other side of the Queen Mother...
"I invite you all here today just to drink tea and chat, and at the same time to celebrate Mrs. Cuiwei's pregnancy." The Queen Mother said slowly, Zhongli Cuiwei's face was full of pride.
"Congratulations to Madam Cuiwei, Madam must take good care of herself." Hui Bin said flatteringly.
Zhong Lizui raised her face slightly and said contemptuously: "Of course, what I am pregnant with is pure dragon vein, unlike some people who dare to deceive the emperor with falsehoods."
After Zhongli Cuiwei said this, everyone looked at Concubine Wan. Concubine Wan, who was sitting at the bottom of the table, looked extremely ugly.
"Cui Wei, don't mention the past." The Queen Mother said with a straight face. After all, it was something that was detrimental to the majesty of the royal family, and the Queen Mother was still very taboo about it.
Then the Queen Mother said to the concubine with a cold face: "Wancai, you are not feeling well. Please don't come to such banquets in the future."
Everyone was shocked, this would directly put the concubine into the cold palace...
"Yes, I obey your order." Concubine Wan gently stood up and left.
Everyone lamented the harshness of the world. The eminent concubine, who was praised a few days ago, was demoted to a talented person in an instant, and the dragon fetus in her belly was also removed. Maybe it was because of her father's hard work and merit, that he was ranked among the three princes, or because he was the emperor's mentor.
The late concubine had been executed long ago.
Now, just the demotion is the maximum tolerance for her...
Mrs. Lan said with a smile: "Thanks to the Queen this time. Could it be that the Queen pretended to get close to her and called herself sisters, so she still couldn't discover the adultery of the late concubine."
"Not me." Nuan Si frowned.
Zhongli Cui glanced at the Queen and said, "I would say, you need to be careful when making friends in the future. Don't accidentally get stabbed in the back."
Nuan Si bit her lips lightly, feeling unspeakably uncomfortable in her heart. In their opinion, she betrayed the concubine, but she didn't, really didn't...
