Chapter 994: Help the First Prince to ascend to the throne
An Rong looked at Zhu Ran coldly, but Zhu Ran did not flinch under her gaze.
She raised her hand and slapped An Rong hard on the face, followed by a second palm, a third palm...
By the time the fifty palms were completed, An Rong's face was swollen and deformed, and bloodshot eyes overflowed from the corners of her mouth.
Zhu Ran's palms were numb because she had exerted all her strength.
But this was an imperial edict and could not be violated, so she naturally slapped him with all her strength.
After she slapped An Rong, she returned to Dugu Liancheng.
Dugu Liancheng said quietly: "If any concubines with a higher status than you make things difficult for you in the future, just tell them that you are protected by me. If you want to humiliate you, ask me first."
Zhu Ran was a little surprised that Dugu Liancheng would make such a decision. There was no expression of surprise on her face, but she just responded respectfully: "Yes, Your Majesty."
Dugu Liancheng was very satisfied with her unfazed attitude. He stood up and said, "Concubine An, today is just a small punishment but a big punishment. Don't let me see how cruel you are next time, otherwise I won't spare you!"
An Rong was about to cry, the pain on her face was far less than the pain in her heart.
She looked at Dugu Liancheng with tears in her eyes: "Why is the emperor always so harsh on his concubines?"
For the sake of a small talent, he actually did this to her face. After this battle, will she become the joke of the entire harem again?
Dugu Liancheng looked sideways after hearing this.
He didn't have an answer to An Rong's question.
"After all, every time I see you, I can't help but feel disgusted, so don't let your disgusting face appear in front of me!" Dugu Liancheng said without mercy.
After he finished speaking, he walked away.
An Rong was on the verge of collapse and fell weakly to the ground.
So she has no hope in this life?
She never expected that Dugu Liancheng would hate her so much, and even hate her deeply.
She always thought that she had hope and that as long as she worked hard, she could become the biggest winner in the harem. Now that the emperor has spoken so clearly, what hope does she have?
"Mother, please get up." Nanny Peng stepped forward and helped An Rong up.
An Rong then remembered that she was in Liuli Palace.
Yes, Zhu Cairen was able to live in Liuli Palace just after he came to power. This was the place where Muxue once lived and the landmark building where his beloved concubine lived.
Because of this, she came to Liuli Palace specifically to impress Zhu Cairen.
Unexpectedly, in the end, Zhu Cairen actually saw his joke.
She looked at Zhu Cairen with cold eyes and said every word: "With me here, you can't even think about rising to prominence in the harem."
Zhu Ran looked calm: "The imperial concubine has lost control."
She wanted too much and was not favored by the emperor, so she became embarrassed. How could someone like the emperor fail to see An Rong's true nature?
No normal emperor would fall in love with a concubine in the harem who has a vicious heart.
It took An Rong a while to control her expression. She tried her best to maintain her final pride and left Liuli Palace with the support of Granny Peng.
"Mommy, what should I do?" An Rong blinked her eyes lightly, trying hard not to shed tears.
She couldn't beat Mu Ci because Mu Ci had a noble status and was the empress of the dynasty, but why did Zhu Cairen?
She was just a small talent, and she could die with just one sentence. Why did the emperor protect that bitch like this?
"My Majesty, please listen to my advice and stop having illusions about the Emperor. If the Emperor knew that it was your Majesty who was behind the things that your Majesty did to the Emperor, he would definitely not forgive you." Aunt Peng advised her earnestly.
.
If the empress still has expectations for the emperor now, she would be really stupid.
"It's impossible for the emperor to know!" An Rong replied firmly.
That was Yuzhi's murder. What does it have to do with her? It was Yuzhi who got the medicine from her, and the medicine was also given by Rong'er. The emperor has no evidence to prove her involvement.
"What kind of person is the emperor? Why are you so sure that the emperor doesn't know? Looking at the emperor's attitude towards the emperor, we know that the emperor must know something." Aunt Peng advised again: "Now that the matter has come to an end, the emperor must act early.
That’s the plan.”
It is so obvious that the emperor is disgusted by the empress, but the empress still has illusions. She is really stupid.
An Rong closed her eyes in pain.
She didn't dare to think about it, but Nanny Peng was right. If the emperor knew something, it would be obvious that he hated her to the extreme.
She must make plans in advance and cannot just wait for death.
So what can she do?
Do you want her to pull the emperor down from the throne and then help her own children to ascend to the throne? But she has no children, nothing, unlike Mu Ci, who gave birth to two children.
At that time, something happens in Dugu Liancheng, and the person in charge is also the crown prince. What does it have to do with her?
After returning to Jingyang Palace, Nanny Peng gave An Rong an idea: "Have you forgotten that there is another eldest prince? If the empress can snatch the eldest prince over, when the emperor abdicates the throne, we can help him."
The prince ascends to the throne, do you see it, my empress?"
An Rong's face was gloomy: "Do you think Concubine He Xian is a good wife? She will obediently give up her child to me?"
I don’t even think about how ridiculous it is. If it were her, she wouldn’t be able to give the eldest prince to the wise concubine, right?
"The worst case scenario is that we find a way to deal with Concubine He Xian so that she has to give the eldest prince to us." While Grandma Peng was speaking, she saw Platycodon coming in and she immediately shut up.
Platycodon saw this detail, but pretended not to notice it. She sent the medicine to An Rong: "Put some medicine on your face, it will heal quickly."
An Rong finished applying the medicine, leaving only Nanny Peng waiting by her side, while the others left, including Platycodon grandiflorum.
Kikyo had no interest in eavesdropping on the conversation between their master and servant, but she still knew the key points. She had heard clearly before that Granny Peng mentioned Concubine He Xian and the eldest prince.
If nothing unexpected happens, Concubine An wants to take advantage of Concubine He Xian and the eldest prince.
After that, Platycodon took some time off and spread the news into the Buddhist hall.
After Mu Ci received the news, he read it twice carefully.
"Why did Concubine An suddenly become interested in the eldest prince?" Sizhu said to herself.
Mu Ci said quietly: "Concubine An is a noble concubine, but she has no children with her. This is the last thing she can do. If Nian'er is adopted and raised by her, she will still be able to rely on Nian'er in the future. If she has more
She is ambitious, and when the emperor abdicates, Nian'er competes for the heir apparent, and becomes the master of the throne, she will be the biggest winner in life..."
Her voice faded.
Today, An Rong was humiliated by Zhu Cairen. According to An Rong's temperament, and with Aunt Peng adding fuel to the fire, it is very possible for An Rong to commit regicide.
Doesn't it make sense that An Rong wants to snatch Nian'er away?
"Wolf ambition!" Mu Ci scolded: "Go and send a message to Biyu, asking her to be wary of An Rong, especially when it comes to food. By the way, if you reveal any more information to her, say that An Rong and Ling
There may be some contact with Prince An's Mansion."
