Chapter 372 Cannon Fodder Substitute & Cold Tyrant 15 (Two in One)
"I am tired and need to rest. You guys go down."
She stopped them from talking and went straight into the palace. Lurong wanted to say something else, but Songzi stopped her: "Sister Lurong, it's getting late. If you have anything to say, you can tell the queen tomorrow."
She quickly closed the door to prevent anyone from disturbing the queen. Humph, this Lu Rong clearly has no respect for her master at all. She even dared to stop the queen from resting.
I was thinking to myself that I would have to get rid of her sooner or later, so that the empress wouldn't be displeased when seeing her.
He stood in front of the door, looking like a trusted eunuch.
Seeing this, Lu Rong gnashed her teeth. This damn thing, if she hadn't killed Lu Ru, how could he have taken the position? He really took chicken feathers as a token of authority.
But since Lin Zhi ignored her, she couldn't really force her way in, so she could only wait until tomorrow to ask again.
He glared at Songzi, who was submissive and servile to Linzhi, and turned around angrily. Fight with her? She would make him regret it sooner or later.
-
As soon as the emperor left, the harem also received the news. His Majesty did not torture Concubine Yi by playing the piano this time. When she left, Concubine Yi did not seem to be complaining or miserable, and she looked pretty good.
I heard that His Majesty also asked Concubine Yi to go to the Imperial Study the next day.
My mind suddenly started to wander.
Thinking back to the previous times when I fell into the water and took the initiative to go to the imperial study, I was safe and sound every time.
They couldn't help but feel excited. If His Majesty started to care about the harem, then they would have a chance. After all, they were not much worse than Concubine Yi. They all started to think of ways secretly.
-
Linzhi had a good night.
When she woke up the next day, she was helped to wash by palace maids, all of whom were second-class palace maids. Songzi seemed to have seen that she disliked Lurong and the other two, so she made special arrangements.
I have to say that the palace maids served very attentively.
When Luzhu and Luqi found that they had lost their seats, they were a little at a loss and looked at Lurong, but Lurong didn't care. She waited anxiously until the palace maids finished serving her and left, and then asked her eagerly how she had been last night.
"Not bad, His Majesty is not angry with me." As for the details, she was not obligated to tell them.
He stood up and said, "Let's set the table. We have to go to the imperial study room later."
After saying that, he walked to the outer hall, saw Songzi, and told him to go to the imperial kitchen to ask someone to make soup and send it to His Majesty later. Songzi responded quickly and turned around to get it himself.
The breakfast was not bad. It was probably because the imperial kitchen knew that Xiao Yuan had been treating her well these days, so they sent it specially.
Linzhi enjoyed the meal very much. During the meal, she saw Lurong seemed to want to say something but hesitated, but she ignored her. After she finished eating, rinsed her mouth, and changed into a palace dress that made her look more gentle and delicate, Songzi happened to come back with the soup, so they set off for the imperial kitchen.
It’s different from the last time when she and Matsuko were together.
This time he came with a grand procession, and was followed by seven or eight palace maids, looking very imposing.
However, not long after leaving Cuiwei Palace, I saw that many concubines had come out today, making the imperial garden, which was withered and gradually desolate, look full of vitality and flowers.
There are concubines of high rank and concubines of low rank.
When they came to pay their respects, she thought for a moment and guessed what they were thinking. She did not get angry, but nodded with a smile, and then continued to go to the imperial study.
The concubines behind him looked at each other and followed.
Lu Rong was annoyed: "They must have seen that you are favored and wanted to learn from you. How shameless! My queen, I will go and chase them away!" Although Lin Zhi made her dissatisfied in every way, she was right. Only when she was favored could they survive.
Seeing those concubines, he was naturally very angry.
Lin Zhi raised her chin slightly: "Don't worry about it."
"But!" She looked at her indifferently, and Lu Rong could only shut up.
They soon arrived at the imperial study. This time, the eunuchs on duty were replaced by the same group as last time. However, they also went in to report quickly, and soon Chief Steward Gao came out.
Her face was as bright as a chrysanthemum. "Your Highness is here, but His Majesty is discussing matters with the ministers. I will take you to the side hall to rest first."
Lin Zhi nodded gently: "Thank you, Manager Gao."
He was immediately taken by Chief Steward Gao to the nearby palace to wait. The palace maids also brought him various snacks and tea. Chief Steward Gao told them to serve him well before leaving.
When the concubines who had been following saw this scene, their eyes suddenly lit up.
The side hall was not far from the main hall. Lin Zhi vaguely heard voices from the imperial study. She couldn't understand what was said exactly, but she heard a scream, and then someone seemed to go in and drag someone away.
Then the door of the side hall opened, and Chief Steward Gao came in and asked her to go and see His Majesty.
She felt a little uneasy and walked into the hall. As expected, she saw a pool of blood on the ground. The room was filled with the smell of blood. Xiao Yuan was being helped to change his clothes by two eunuchs, and there was a drop of blood on his cheek.
The robe he took off was thrown casually on the ground, stained with blood.
He had a cold face. The air pressure in the palace was very low and the palace servants dared not breathe.
Her heart was pounding, and at this moment she suddenly remembered the plot. All the civil and military officials said that he was a tyrant and he would execute ministers if they disagreed with him.
Just now, Chief Steward Gao said that Xiao Yuan was discussing matters with the ministers.
It seemed that the good attitude he gave her before was just a deliberate disguise, and this was his true face.
"come over."
An extremely cold voice.
Lin Zhi didn't dare to pretend, she lowered her head and walked over, and was held in his arms. He buried his head in her body and sniffed her deeply, and her body couldn't help but stiffen.
"Afraid?" He pinched her face and lifted it up, with a cold smile on the corner of his mouth.
Lin Zhi forced a smile: "Don't be afraid." Looking at his face and the coldness in his eyes, she raised her hand tremblingly and wiped Xiao Yuan's face with a handkerchief.
His eyes narrowed instantly.
Lin Zhi took off the handkerchief and showed it to him: "Your Majesty, it's on your face. I'll help you wipe it off."
Xiao Yuan looked down and saw that the pink handkerchief embroidered with peach blossoms was stained with dark red blood. When he looked over, he saw a smile on the woman's pale face, and it was obvious that she was very scared.
Feel the subtle fragrance coming from her body.
He smiled, held her trembling hand, picked her up, and sat on the dragon chair: "What are you afraid of? It's just killing a eunuch who wanted to drug you." With a smile, "Do you want me to wash up and get rid of the smell?"
Lin Zhi was surprised: "Someone drugged your majesty?"
Xiao Yuan said disdainfully: "There are so many people who want to kill me, and drugging them is common." Looking at her, maybe she is one of them.
Lin Zhi suddenly became nervous, and looked him up and down, very worried: "Your Majesty, you didn't drink, did you?" He forgot his fear in an instant. Someone wanted to kill him all the time. If he didn't kill them back, would he have to serve them well?
"How could that spy get into the imperial study? And Chief Steward Gao too, actually let someone run here." He frowned fiercely.
Xiao Yuan saw that she looked angry and raised his eyebrows. Was she worried about him? However, he had deliberately let the spy in, just to get some clues.
At this time, the bloodstains on the ground had been cleaned up and all the palace servants had gone down.
Lin Zhi looked at him and said, "Your Majesty, please don't get into any trouble." Her eyes were sincere.
Xiao Yuan touched her face and said, "Don't worry, my beloved concubine. I will be fine if everyone dies."
Lin Zhi thought, that’s not necessarily true, in the plot, you died, but looking back now, it should be that his headache became serious in the later period, which caused his temperament to change.
"Your Majesty, do you have a headache? I learned a little from the nanny when I was a child. Let me help you with the massage." Xiao Yuan glanced at her: "Yes."
Lin Zhi was about to get off him, but he stood up, carried her to the back room, and laid on the couch: "Press it."
Lin Zhi couldn't help but look around the room. It should be where he usually rested. It was scented with ambergris and was warmer than the empty imperial study.
Seeing that he closed his eyes, she immediately sat down beside him, placed her hands on his temples, and pressed with her fingertips, but her eyes swept across the emperor's face. He had a high nose bridge, deep brow bones, unexpectedly long eyelashes, and thin lips that usually showed a half-smile or a fake smile.
There are dark circles under my eyes, probably because I haven’t been getting enough rest.
Xiao Yuan was surprised. The force he applied on her temple was neither too strong nor too weak, just right. As for exposing her fatal spot, he didn't believe she had the courage to do that after having just dealt with a spy.
And at this distance, I can smell her fragrance.
The strong murderous intent and pain caused by the murder in his mind were gradually alleviated with the massage.
Close your eyes and enjoy.
Butler Gao was talking to Songzi, and Songzi responded very positively. He said that this was the chief butler of the Majesty, and they should get along well with him. Maybe he could help the Majesty in the future.
Gao Peng also wanted to make friends with Concubine Yi's people, and for a while the two of them had a very pleasant conversation.
But soon, their conversation was interrupted. A concubine carrying a food box and a palace maid came towards them with a proper smile on her face. She looked at Gao Peng and said, "Eunuch Gao, I made some snacks for His Majesty myself. Could you please inform me?"
Songzi's face turned bad instantly. His queen was still in the imperial study, and this man came over to bring snacks, clearly not taking the queen seriously.
However, Manager Gao was right beside him, so he could only suppress his anger and wait and see what the manager would do.
Chief Steward Gao took a look and saw that there seemed to be other palace servants gathering information not far away. He immediately understood what was going on. He thought that these concubines must have come here to test the situation because they saw that Concubine Yi was favored by His Majesty.
However, he didn't know why His Majesty suddenly treated Concubine Yi differently.
Although the concubine in front of him was not as high in status as Concubine Yi, she was also a second-rank Zhaoyi, and her father was the Minister of Works, so she was highly valued by His Majesty.
His Majesty usually treated other concubines rudely, but he also gave some face to Zhang Zhaoyi.
Don't offend.
After thinking for a while, he said: "Empress Zhaoyi, Concubine Yi is in the palace, you see..." He secretly hoped that Empress Zhaoyi would understand what he meant and go back.
Zhang Zhaoyi: "Is that so? Since sister Yifei is here, I will not go in. However, please help me to deliver these snacks to His Majesty. I will leave immediately after delivering them." When she opened the food box, she could tell that it was carefully made, but if someone said that Zhaoyi made it herself, she would only believe it to a point.
Gao Peng was a little embarrassed, but he knew that His Majesty had some doubts about Concubine Yi and had investigated secretly.
But he also saw with his own eyes the intimacy between His Majesty and Concubine Yi.
This is the first time in the entire harem.
But... he did not take the food box, but said: "Then please wait, Empress Zhaoyi, I will go in and ask for instructions from His Majesty." He turned and went into the imperial study.
Songzi was so angry that he was shaking all over. Well, his queen was in there, but Chief Butler Gao actually let other concubines in. He gritted his teeth secretly and decided to report Chief Butler Gao to the queen, and let the queen whisper in the emperor's ear so that he would give him a severe scolding!
He glared at Zhang Zhaoyi, bah, she was not as pretty as his wife and her mind was sinister.
Chief Steward Gao discovered that His Majesty and Concubine Yi were not in the palace. After thinking for a while, he walked outside the inner room and called His Majesty softly. When he heard the voice from inside asking him to come in, he went in.
He took a quick glance and lowered his head, secretly regretting coming in.
His Majesty was resting his head on the Empress's lap, and the Empress's face was flushed, but he came in to disturb her...
Xiao Yuan said calmly: "What's the matter?"
Chief Steward Gao looked up at Lin Zhi and said, "Your Majesty, Zhang Zhaoyi is outside the palace. She said she would send you some snacks. Please take a look."
Lin Zhi on the side paused, looked over in surprise, opened her mouth and then closed it.
All her current glory is fake. Xiao Yuan is wary of her. As the emperor's confidant, Chief Steward Gao naturally guessed something. Now that the daughter of a minister who is truly the emperor's confidant has come, he will naturally choose her.
He bowed his head and remained silent.
"Let her take her things and go."
Xiao Yuan stared at Manager Gao with a cold look in his eyes: "Don't you know how I treated them before? Get out."
Gao Peng was startled and immediately lowered his head even deeper: "Yes, I will go out and report right away."
Carefully exit the inner room.
Lin Zhi looked towards Xiao Yuan and happened to meet his gaze: "My dear, why are you sitting so far away? Come here."
She immediately thought of what happened just now. Before Butler Gao called out "Emperor", she was pressing his head. Because that position was not convenient, she asked him to put his head on her legs. Unexpectedly, when Butler Gao called out, he was about to get up, but her hair got caught on his hair crown, and when he moved his head, it hit her chest.
Finally, he took off his hair crown and then untied it.
After all the trouble, everyone was embarrassed and blushed.
She coughed lightly and didn't ask him why he let her into the imperial study but didn't allow other concubines to come in: "Your Majesty, do you want me to call a palace maid to tie your hair?"
Xiao Yuan looked at her: "My beloved concubine, do you know how to do it? If you do, there is no need to call the palace maid."
After understanding what he meant, Lin Zhi blushed and nodded: "Yes."
She immediately walked behind him, tied his hair, and put on his head a golden crown carved with a dragon and inlaid with jewels.
Outside the palace, Songzi was waiting with Zhang Zhaoyi and others. He was very nervous, worried that his queen would be humiliated. He felt that Zhang Zhaoyi and others were more hateful and his face turned pale.
Zhang Zhaoyi, however, had a faint smile on her face, looking contented and her smile was very appropriate.
Finally, the palace door opened and Chief Steward Gao came out. Songzi's heart tightened. Zhang Zhaoyi's smile grew wider and she handed over the food box: "Chief Steward Gao..."
"Empress Zhaoyi, His Majesty asked you to take the things back."
That one sentence broke the perfect smile on her face.
After being stunned for a moment, Songzi was so happy that she almost jumped up. She tried her best to smile, and when she saw Zhang Zhaoyi's ugly face, she felt happy. You have embarrassed my queen. Haha, His Majesty simply ignored you.
Zhang Zhaoyi tightly grasped the food box, and could hardly maintain her smile: "Chief Executive Gao, is His Majesty very busy, or has someone told His Majesty not to allow me to deliver anything?" These words had a suggestive meaning.
Chief Steward Gao had a cold expression and said, "Empress Zhaoyi, what you just said was ordered by His Majesty himself, and no one else said anything. You should go back quickly to avoid His Majesty's anger." For the sake of being His Majesty's trusted minister, he still gave a reminder.
He now understood clearly that His Majesty really treated Concubine Yi differently.
No one can replace it.
He almost displeased His Majesty and Concubine Yi just now.
Zhang Zhaoyi looked embarrassed, knowing that she had failed. If she continued to pester him, His Majesty might even dislike her. She bowed and left with a smile, but she was unwilling in her heart. She had entered the palace on her own initiative, and had fallen in love with His Majesty since she accidentally saw him leaving the palace.
She is different from those women that Your Majesty hates. She is the most sincere to Your Majesty.
After thinking for a while, he turned at the intersection and went to Concubine Hui's palace.
