Chapter 1124 Book Spirit (7)
All the concubines were shocked. How could they be rewarded overnight?
All the concubines were talking and questioning each other.
"This is impossible, how is this possible?"
"Yes, it's impossible, absolutely impossible!"
"Yes, why would she be rewarded?"
Everyone was discussing. Only Concubine Shu was the quietest. However, she was secretly thinking in her heart, "She was rewarded, but she had to live to bear it. I guess she has fallen down now, bleeding from all seven orifices!" Concubine Shu was thinking deeply. At this moment, Concubine Xian, who was sitting opposite her, also noticed something. So, Concubine Xian asked, "Madam Concubine Shu, you are lost in thought. What are you thinking about?" Concubine Shu was distracted and did not hear Concubine Xian's question. So, her personal maid Die'er slowly bent down, leaned close to Concubine Shu's ear, and whispered, "Madam, Madam Xian is talking to you!"
Concubine Shu finally came back to her senses, blinked her eyes, and said in a lively tone, "Well, Concubine Xian cares about me so much, I am really ecstatic!"
Concubine Xian: "They are all people in the palace, and they are sisters. They all serve His Majesty together, so naturally they should care about each other!"
At that time, the Imperial Concubine also spoke up, saying, "Okay, all of you go away! There is no point in having incredible arguments here. The Queen will come back to take charge of the situation sooner or later."
As soon as the Imperial Noble Consort spoke, all the concubines immediately stood up, paid their respects, and left.
Concubine Shu stood up and half-knelt and said, "It is us concubines who do not know the importance of the matter. The Imperial Noble Concubine manages the harem and works day and night. She is really tired. We concubines are sorry for the disturbance and will take our leave now!" The concubines: "We concubines take our leave!"
After kneeling and paying respects, the concubines left one after another.
Only the Imperial Concubine and the flowers and grass were left there. The Imperial Concubine was really upset, seeing that she was about to get the position of Empress, but now she had to give it back without any change, which was really unacceptable.
The Imperial Concubine rested her hand on her forehead, leaned on the armrest of the chair, sighed, and said, "Alas! It really is true that man proposes, God disposes!"
The illness she had pretended to have in the past few days was in vain, and that slap was also in vain. Originally, the Imperial Noble Consort, with her swollen and red face, added fuel to the fire by reporting the Queen and taking the opportunity to depose her. But now, she has sent the Emperor into the Queen's arms.
The more the imperial concubine thought about it, the angrier she became. In a fit of rage, she overturned all the teacups on the table to the ground.
Hua'er Cao'er immediately knelt down and comforted her, "Your Majesty, please don't hurt yourself because of anger. If you do that, you won't have any chance to fight for it, right?" The Imperial Concubine changed her mind and felt that what the maid said made sense, so she immediately stood up and said, "Quickly, prepare the queen's gifts, go to the cold palace to visit the queen, and congratulate her while you're at it!"
The grass and flowers said in unison, "Yes, Madam!"
At this moment, the cold palace.
The gate was closed tightly, no one from the inside could open the door, and no one from the outside could get in. Look, Mo'er was trying to persuade her own queen.
Moer: "My queen, you are really making me anxious to death. The people beating the gongs and drums outside are here to reward you. They also came with the imperial edict!"
The Queen: "I will not open the door. I am unwilling to accept the imperial edict. Besides, I will not accept the reward without merit."
This made the palace maid Mo'er even more anxious. She didn't know if the queen's brain was damaged by the high fever. She deserved the reward. How could she not accept it without any merit?
Moer then asked: "My queen, what do you mean? Could it be that the monarch I served last night did not exist?" The queen: "Last night, the monarch, wasn't he... the emperor? He was so outstanding, handsome, and gentle, but he was the emperor. It's unexpected!"
The queen knew that it was the emperor who came, but she remained in a daze, not intending to accept the imperial edict. Instead, she gave another order, saying, "No one can open the door without my permission!"
