Yuan Shuang didn't deliberately skip the court meeting today. After Jun Hu left Feishuang Palace, she was ready to go to the court meeting. But after she finished dressing up carefully and just walked out of Feishuang Palace, she suddenly became dizzy. The order waiting behind her Yi and the palace maids quickly helped her back to the palace. They massaged her and gave her sugary water. She suddenly felt lazy and didn't want to move anymore. Seeing this, Yi wanted to ask the imperial doctor for her, but she was stopped. She stopped her. Her palace maid wanted to go to Fengzao Palace to ask for court leave on her behalf, but she also stopped her.
She has been feeling unwell these past few days, so she was late for the court meeting several times, and was always humiliated by the queen. Yesterday, in front of everyone, she warned her that if she was late again, she would be asked to kneel at the palace gate. She had previously In order to get pregnant as soon as possible, she has been looking for various supplements. In the past few days, she also secretly checked some books and carefully compared her current symptoms. She speculated that she was most likely pregnant this time, and then counted the days. They were all right, and she couldn't help but be overjoyed.
At the same time, she sneered in her heart, is she the queen? Kneeling at the palace gate, right? This time I will make you completely fall out of favor and become an abandoned wife. However, her child was hard-earned and she couldn't seriously hurt her. She secretly told Ling Yi that if she found someone to follow Jun Hu, she must notify him in time to save her, and she must let him see Qingcheng's viciousness with his own eyes.
When Hongyu arrived at Feishuang Hall, Yuan Shuang was lying on the couch to rest. She couldn't help but feel a little annoyed that she hadn't gotten up yet.
She couldn't help but said in a solemn tone: "The queen has given an oral instruction, asking Concubine Yuan Gui to move to Fengzao Palace to hold a court meeting!"
Seeing her nostrils turned upward, Ling Yi couldn't help but said displeasedly: "My noble concubine is sick and can't go today!"
Hongyu said angrily: "I'm sick! Then why didn't you ask for leave in advance? And why is there no imperial doctor in this palace?"
Ling Yi sneered: "It's none of your business, you just need to go back and report it. Where did you get all this nonsense?"
"How dare you! I am the queen's maid, how dare you talk to me like this?"
Ling Yi disagreed.
"I am also the concubine's maid!"
Hongyu was extremely angry and said angrily: "Do you understand the superiority and inferiority of people? Is it more important to be a queen or a noble concubine?"
Hearing this, Ling Yi rolled his eyes disdainfully, as if a dead pig was not afraid of boiling water.
Hongyu said angrily: "Today I am summoning Concubine Yuan Gui on behalf of the Queen. Concubine Yuan Gui must go today whether she is really sick or fake, otherwise she will commit the following crime!"
Ling Yi wanted to argue again, but Yuan Shuang stopped her and said: "Okay, okay, stop arguing, I will just go!"
She only wore an ordinary Zhai dress, her hair was messy, and she didn't wear any jewelry. She was supported by Ling Yi and headed towards Fengzao Palace.
Seeing this, Hongyu felt a little uneasy and said, "Concubine Yuan Gui, please dress up before you go!"
"No need, didn't you just say that the queen and the concubines are waiting for me? Then what's the delay?" Yuan Shuang snorted dissatisfiedly.
Hongyu always felt that something was wrong, but she didn't know exactly what was wrong. On the way back to Fengzao Palace, she felt uneasy. When they arrived at Fengzao Palace, Qingcheng and the concubines saw Yuan Shuang's appearance. I came over, and I was shocked at the same time. What was happening to her? Have you just finished serving His Majesty
Yuan Shuang paid no attention to the whispers of the concubines. He just bowed to Qingcheng and said, "Concubine, please see the queen!"
She deliberately flicked her sleeves, exposing the tooth marks on her arms. Qingcheng knew clearly, what was there? I suddenly felt even more angry.
"Concubine Yuan Gui, you just made me and my sisters wait so long!"
"Your Majesty got up a little late today, and I am also feeling a little unwell today, so I am late. I hope the queen will forgive me!" Yuan Shuang replied calmly.
Qingcheng felt that she was deliberately showing off, so she couldn't help but scolded her harshly: "You are so outrageous, what kind of place is this? How can you say these things?"
"What did I say wrong? I don't understand why the queen is so angry?" Yuan Shuang pretended to be panicked and said in a pretentious manner.
"Kneel down! Look what kind of clothes you are wearing. It is out of character in front of the palace. Don't you understand any rules?"
"Isn't this concubine forced to come here by your maid, the queen? It's not like this concubine came here just because she wanted to!" Yuan Shuang retorted.
Hong Yu heard this and said angrily: "This slave has already reminded Concubine Yuan Gui that you did not agree to ask you to change your clothes before coming here."
"You, palace maid, are so presumptuous. You dare to talk to me like this? Didn't you just boss me around in Feishuang Palace, saying that you were delivering an oral message to me on behalf of the queen? You said that the queen and all the concubines were waiting for me, and you also said If I dare not go, I will be guilty of the following. Do you want me to come over immediately?"
Hong Yu was immediately furious with Yuan Shuang, but what she said really seemed to have been said just now. She thought for a long time before she managed to stutter out her defense and said: "You, you, slave, slave... slave in the end is not Also, do you want me to change my clothes first? Your Majesty, you are the one who refused to change, so it’s all your fault!”
Qingcheng naturally believed Hong Yu's words, and she said angrily: "Concubine Yuan Gui, I see that you are a favored servant and are proud of you. Not only have you behaved disrespectfully in front of the palace, but you have also been absent from the court without any reason. I will now punish you to go to Fengzao Palace." Kneel at the door for two hours and copy the female ring a hundred times!"
Most of the concubines were gloating after hearing this, so no one interceded for her. Hong Yu remembered that Yuan Shuang had just dumped the blame on her, so he and Lv Zhu dragged her to the palace gate and forced her to kneel down. She refused, so Hongyu took the opportunity to kick her in the leg.
Yuan Shuang immediately let out an "ah" sound, and it hurt so much that she almost shed tears.
Ling Yi rushed to Qinzheng Hall as soon as she felt that the atmosphere was not right. At that time, Jun Hu had just left the morning court. As soon as she saw Jun Hu, she immediately knelt down and cried about Concubine Yuan Gui being punished to kneel. Jun Hu actually didn't want to care about it. , the affairs of the harem were all left to the queen to take care of, and he should not have interfered, but Ling Yi burst into tears when he said it, saying that Yuan Shuang fainted when he got up in the morning, and was forced by the queen to go to a court meeting, even his clothes were Those who didn't have time to change were taken to Fengzao Palace, and then they were forced to kneel down by the queen's two maids.
Jun Hu's face was as heavy as water, thinking that Yuan Shuang seemed to be really unwell yesterday, and he had been angry with Qingcheng for more than a month, so it was time to find a chance to ease the relationship.
So he drove to Fengzao Palace. Yuan Shuang imagined that Jun Hu was going a little slower, and she had just been kicked by Hong Yu. She herself felt faintly uneasy at the moment, so she wanted to pretend to be faint. She came to avoid being punished by kneeling down. At this moment, when she saw Jun Hu's dragon, she felt happy, and then she fell back and pretended to faint.
Seeing that she was so dizzy, Qingcheng didn't take it to heart at all, and just watched her and her maid's performance with cold eyes.
"My Majesty, what's wrong with you? Please respond to me! My Majesty? Don't scare me?"
Qingcheng slowly walked behind the palace gate and looked at Yuan Shuang, who was pretending to be faint and fell to the ground looking pitiful. She couldn't help but sneered: "Yuan Shuang, how delicate are you to have fainted after less than a quarter of an hour of kneeling? Has it passed?"
The maid next to her quickly defended her: "Queen, my concubine felt unwell when she woke up in the morning. She was not pretending to be faint!"
"Really? Why didn't I feel that she was unwell? I saw that she was obviously fine. But I have heard about it. She used to fight with His Majesty, why is she so fragile now!"
As she spoke, Qingcheng pulled out the silver needle from her sleeve and was about to stab Yuan Shuang's acupuncture point. Yi was horrified and quickly ran over to protect Yuan Shuang and said, "Why is the queen so vicious? In the early years, the imperial concubine followed your majesty on the battlefield, but she also As a result, I suffered from injuries and illnesses. Why should I use myself to save others? It must be that my wife is pretending to be faint!"
"Presumptuous!" Qingcheng was furious and kicked Ling Yi. Then she waved the silver needle and was about to expose Yuan Shuang's trick, but she didn't want to be grabbed by the wrist by Jun Hu behind her.
"It's enough!"
Jun Hu had a stern look on his face at this moment. He pushed Qingcheng away, then bent down to pick up Yuan Shuang who was on the ground. He noticed that there were blood stains on Yuan Shuang's white dress. In fact, it was Yuan Shuang's deliberate scratch with his fingernail. Thighs stained.
Qingcheng also noticed the bright red bloodshot at this moment, and she was immediately startled. Could it be Yuan Shuang? How can it be? She suddenly became unsteady on her feet.
"Please quickly ask Mo Yuanzheng to go to Feishuang Palace!"
Jun Hu hugged Yuan Shuang and prepared to go up to the dragon. Qingcheng felt uneasy and shouted quickly: "Your Majesty, if she is really pregnant, we really can't delay it. It's better to let her come to Feng Zao Palace first, so that the imperial doctor can come faster, and she also I won’t be tortured anymore.”
Jun Hu was shocked when he heard the word "pregnant". Yuan Shuang was pregnant, and he couldn't help but panic.
"Ayuan, why didn't you tell me?"
Yuan Shuang woke up at this time. She couldn't help hugging Jun Hu's waist tightly, trying her best to look frightened. She whispered to Jun Hu: "Your Majesty, I want to go back to Feishuang Palace!"
"Okay, okay! I will carry you back right now."
Jun Hu was in a state of confusion. He wanted to have a child of his own. This was his long-cherished wish!
"Quick! Go to Feishuang Palace!"
Long Chu set off immediately. When he walked to Qingcheng, he glared at her fiercely and scolded her: "You'd better pray to God and pray to Buddha. My child is fine. Otherwise, I will never forgive you lightly!"
Qingcheng couldn't help but swayed when she heard the words. She suddenly felt a pain in her chest like needles. Only then did she confirm that she had been tricked by Yuan Shuang today. She couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
"Qingxuan, Ah Qingxuan, after so many years, you still haven't made any progress, and you were harmed by her again! Yuan Shuang, Ah Yuan Shuang, you are so cruel. You dare to take advantage of a child that is so rare to conceive. ! I’m afraid I’ll never be able to defeat you at this point!”
Hongyu and Lvzhu quickly supported her. At this time, all the concubines were also silent, and everyone was in danger.
Qingcheng laughed at herself, waved to them and said, "Everyone, please go back!"
"Concubine, please retire!"
All the concubines quickly retreated outside the palace, and soon only Concubine Mei was left in the Fengzao Palace that had just been crowded.
"Why don't you leave?"
"The Queen, we have fallen into a trap. This woman is too powerful. If she really disregards the life of the child in her belly to frame the Queen, Queen, you should have made plans earlier!"
Mei Fei, who had always been as cold as ice, spoke slowly.
"I know that Concubine Mei is interested. You should go back first! I have my own plans!"
Mei Fei nodded towards her, her usually cold and arrogant face was now full of worry, but in the end she bowed and left slowly.
Hongyu also reacted at this time.
She couldn't help crying and said: "Princess, it's all my fault for being so pushy and harming you. I shouldn't have brought Concubine Yuan Guifei to Fengzao Palace. It's all because of my carelessness. Also, I kicked her just now. Princess, will your Majesty kill this slave for this?"
Qingcheng endured the stinging pain in her chest, forced herself to stand still, and said slowly: "It's okay, Hongyu, don't be afraid, you have been staying in Fengzao Palace these few days, I will be there for everything!"
"Luzhu, go to the wet nurse immediately and bring Zhi'er over!"
"Bi'er, go to Feishuang Palace and keep an eye on it. If, if there is anything wrong with Concubine Yuan Gui's child, report it to me immediately."
"yes!"
After everything was arranged, Qingcheng sat down on the couch, feeling panicked. She knew better than anyone else how much Jun Hu wanted to have a child. Judging from how well he treated Zhi'er, she knew that if Yuan Shuang's child really had something today, Three long and two short, I'm afraid Jun Hu will really kill someone.
