Yi Chongyuan was indeed very angry. My stomach hurt at night.
Call the imperial doctor all night.
But she couldn't directly say that she was angry with Shen Chuliu.
The concubines in the Queen's Palace quarreled every day, and the emperor would never punish anyone for this.
So Yi Chongyuan couldn't say anything at all.
Two or three days later, when An came out again, Yi Chongyuan suddenly said: "The weather is very good today, let's sit in the imperial garden. Ning Jieyu, Jing Meiren, Li Meiren. How about Lu Xiaoyi coming together?"
Shen Chuliu knew in his heart that this was a plot against her, but he didn't hide away. He didn't know what the trick was after he escaped this time.
"Of course that's good."
Everyone was worried, but Shen Chuliu agreed. Anyone who didn't go would seem to have no courage.
Everyone went to the Imperial Garden. It was March, the peach blossoms had just bloomed, and there was pink smoke everywhere.
Peach blossoms are beautiful, so there are many planted in the Imperial Garden.
A few of them sat in a pavilion, looking at the flowers and trees around them and talking.
The gossip was commonplace, and everyone was worried. After all, Yi Chongyuan was pregnant with a child.
Although it has been seven months, if something unexpected happens, no one can escape from the responsibility.
Shen Chuliu was drinking tea and sitting in a corner.
It's not that I'm avoiding Yi Chongyuan, but I can see further here.
Yi Chongyuan suddenly said: "It was my impulse a few days ago. We are all sisters. Don't mind, Jingmei. Hey, I am also short-tempered. In fact, my temper is similar to yours."
Yi Chongyuan said it very politely, which sounded like she knew Jing Meiren's current importance, so she was willing to be friends with her.
"What did Concubine Chongyuan say? It was just a few words before, so why did I care about it? Today, I called you Concubine. Didn't I come right away?"
"That's good. Hey, I won't tell you lies. Although we women are not allowed to be jealous, sometimes we envy you. Sometimes the words are a bit harsh. Sisters, don't take it easy. Life in the palace is long, and we Sisters have to get along for the rest of their lives." Yi Chongyuan said with a smile, "Come on, have a sip of tea as a tribute to me as your sister."
Everyone picked it up and took a sip out of respect.
Here at Shen Chuliu, it was Ye Xin, Yi Chongyuan's girl, who refilled the tea for her.
With Chi Su watching, Ye Xin didn't dare to do anything.
However, if you intend to harm people's hearts, you will definitely do it.
Yi Chongyuan invited them today, so she naturally knew that Qi Yixiu was coming to the Imperial Garden.
Yi Chongyuan has been favored for so many years and has a child. It is not difficult to find out such a little information.
So Lian Xin already knew when her eunuch winked outside the pavilion.
Firstly, she is the ninth concubine, and secondly, she is pregnant, so she will not take only one person with her when she goes out.
At this moment, Zi Lianxin moved her hand slightly, and Ye Xin, who was standing beside Shen Chuliu, gave Shen Chuliu more tea.
Just staggering at his feet, he saw that a pot of hot tea was about to hit Shen Chuliu.
Chi Su moved really quickly and knocked the hot teapot away with a slap.
The teapot fell out of hand and was thrown directly out of the pavilion, making a crackling sound.
It was impossible for Shen Chuliu not to stand up, and she was not a fairy. So you can't be distracted and notice Yi Chongyuan approaching at this time.
So I subconsciously pushed her out.
"Jing Meiren, what are you doing!"
"Oh, is Queen Yichongyuan okay?"
"Sister Yi!" "Master, master!"
Qi Yixiu watched as the teapot broke into pieces. When he walked up to the pavilion, he saw such a chaotic scene. Regardless of whether he saw it clearly or not, he could easily get the impression at the first moment of what Jing Meiren had done to Yi Chongyuan.
"What's wrong?" Qi Yixiu frowned.
Yi Chongyuan held Ning Jieyu's hand: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty, it's... It's Jing Meiren who recommended me as my concubine. I was shocked."
"Yes, I also saw it." Lu Xiaoyi whispered.
"How is Yi Chongyuan? Do you need to call the imperial doctor?" Qi Yixiu sat down and asked.
"I do have a stomachache. It doesn't matter if I think about it." Yi Chongyuan said.
"Jing Meiren, what do you say?" Qi Yixiu looked ugly.
Shen Chuliu took a deep breath and knelt down: "Back to the emperor, it was indeed my concubine who pushed Empress Yichongyuan."
This answer surprised Qi Yixiu, but he was willing to listen to her explanation: "Why?"
"I don't think Jing Meiren came here on purpose..."
"Shut up!" Qi Yixiu interrupted Lu Xiaoyi: "Naochao, did I tell you to say it?"
Lu Xiaoyi hurriedly knelt down: "I know I was wrong."
"Back to the emperor, of course I didn't mean it." Shen Chuliu glanced at the kneeling Lu Xiaoyi with a half-smile, and then continued: "It turned out to be Empress Yichongyuan's girl slipped under her feet, and a pot of boiling tea almost hit me. Concubine. In desperation, I didn't expect Lady Yi Chongyuan to come. "
"How can Miss Jingmei slander this slave? It's obviously your feet that tripped this slave." Ye Xin whispered.
"Really? Then I probably want to disfigure myself?" Shen Chuliu looked at Ye Xin.
Ye Xin did not dare to say anything.
"Beautiful lady, tell me." Qi Yixiu said.
"Back to the emperor, I can't see clearly where I was sitting just now. It's just tea, not wine. Ye Xin, you are so busy adding tea, it seems that Jing Meiren's slaves are superfluous. Besides, today, although it is Empress Yichongyuan, You don’t need to be so diligent in inviting us to tea.”
Her words seemed like she didn't say anything, but in fact she said everything.
Yi Chongyuan saw that Qi Yixiu's face was not good and she did not dare to speak. She just held her belly and looked pale.
"Jingmei, I will be grounded for half a month." Qi Yixiu stood up and said, "Lu Xiaoyi is stirring up trouble and grounded for one month."
"Yi Chongyuan goes back to recuperate and don't come out before giving birth."
"Yes." Yi Chongyuan's heartbeat accelerated.
"I obey the decree." Lu Xiaoyi also turned pale.
Shen Chuliu's expression remained as usual: "I obey your order."
After getting up, Shen Chuliu said: "I don't blame Empress Chongyuan today, I just have something to say. Please allow me to do so."
"explain."
Qi Yixiu's face was still ugly, but it didn't get uglier because Shen Chuliu wanted to speak.
"That day, when Sister Cao was pregnant, she didn't know how to cherish it. So after the miscarriage, the emperor punished her for not being able to protect the fetus. Everyone in the harem wanted to be pregnant with the emperor's heir. It was a great blessing to have the emperor's heir. If you can't protect it, "It's true that you are guilty of not protecting me well. It's a good thing that the emperor is so careless today. If the month is not old, I may not have done it intentionally, but I have to be too heavy-handed. How about it?"
"Even if I am a mere beauty, I can't make up for the sin of harming the emperor's heir even if I am given death. At that time, Empress Chongyuan was equally guilty."
After saying that, she said, "I'll take my leave first, and then I'll go back and think about my mistakes behind closed doors."
Qi Yixiu didn't say anything, and Shen Chuliu didn't say anything more. He supported Chi Su's hand and walked out of the pavilion, straightening his back and walking out of Qi Yixiu's sight.
He looked at the back for a long time and suddenly thought that this woman was actually quite thin.
