Palace Prisoner

Chapter 20 Eye-catching

"Hmm." Xiao Yuanqi waved his arm and pushed away Wu Wanqing, who was in front of him, and stepped forward to approach Wang Shu. Wang Shu's face was still frightened. The wind between her clothes seemed to blow her down. A pair of warm palms stroked her face, and her eyes had a silky brilliance.

"Your Majesty..." Wang Shu held her mouth, and her eyes were full of crystal, but she couldn't help it, adding a few grievances.

Xiao Yuanqi raised his eyebrows and looked angrily at the palace man beside him: "What's going on?"

A roar aroused everyone's trembling. No one dared to breathe. They just knelt on the ground and bowed down.

"Your Majesty, nothing." Wang Shu stretched out Qianqian's finger and then slid on Xiao Yuanqi's chest, but there was a sad look on her face, which was reminiscent of something wrong.

After all, a maid around Wang Shu opened her mouth. She said with a crying voice, "Your Majesty, the Empress came to collect dew in the imperial garden to make tea for you, but she met Concubine Wu on the way. Somehow, Concubine Wu was very domineering towards our Empress, and... she also called herself 'the palace', although the Empress However, she was angry but didn't say anything. Unexpectedly, Concubine Wu simply came forward to do it. If it hadn't been for the emperor, our Empress would have been..."

After saying that, the maid of honor simply fell at Xiao Yuanqi's feet and cried. With this cry, Wu Wanqing's face suddenly turned white. Every word was a knife, a knife aimed at her.

Naturally, Wu Wanqing would not sit and wait for death. She also squeezed out tears and fell to the ground. Even if she lost her identity, she could not be suppressed, otherwise there would be no chance to turn over.

"Your Majesty, what they said nonsense, in fact..." Wu Wanqing looked at the palace people around her, all with their faces drooping. No one wanted to say anything for her. Sadness gradually rose. She slowly opened her mouth and wanted to identify herself, but was ruthlessly interrupted by Xiao Yuanqi.

"You shut up, you are so jealous that you can't get along with the people in the harem again and again. Now he is even more bold and has the same position as a concubine. Who allowed you to call it 'this palace'? Since you are so arrogant in your concubine position, I will not let you become this 'this palace'. When I came, I announced my will. Concubine Wu was so jealous that she acted inappropriately. She reduced Concubine Wu to Wu Beauty for the future.

"Your Majesty..."

Wu Wanqing's eyes were dull, as if she couldn't believe it. The pain on her shoulder could not suppress the dull pain in her heart, and she was dragged back to Guixiang Palace by the internal prison around her.

Wang Shu, hiding behind Xiao Yuanqi, covered her face with sleeves and shrugged her shoulders. She seemed to be crying, but in fact she smiled secretly.

"Come on, drag the palace man down and kill him. In addition, all the court ladies present are leading the 20 boards. All of them were demoted to the court, and some powerful people were rearranged in the palace of Wang Concubine. Xiao Yuanqi took a step back and said to Wang Guangrong.

Wang Shu's smile suddenly withdrew. Most of the people around her were specially arranged by the Wang family to enter the palace, and some were even sent to the palace in their early years. Such a move was tantamount to cutting her limbs in half.

"Your Majesty, this matter has nothing to do with them. If you want to blame me, you can blame my concubine." The tears that Wang Shu had just taken back gushed out again. She looked at the unattracted palace people kneeling on the ground. They all looked at her with "extermine" - for them, Wang Concubine was relying on. In their eyes, Wang Concubine was the emperor's heart. What they did was for Wang Concubine. As long as Wang Shu opened her mouth, she could avoid heavy punishment.

Wang Shu also doesn't want to lose these powerful people around her. She looked at Xiao Yuanqi with tears in her eyes, but saw that he was indifferent and emotional, so she had to find another way: "Your Majesty, you have to punish them for a crime, right?"

This is a little exaggerated, but Wang Shu had to say it. She pointed to the maid who had just said: "Your Majesty, this maid of honor has just told you the reason..."

Is that right? She said that Wu Meiren was domineering and clearly committed the following crimes, which was unforgivable. Look at the rest of your palace. Why don't you stop Wu Meiren when they quarrel with you? Huh? Or is this what they have discussed and come to see your joke?

Xiao Yuanqi pointed sharply to the palace people and said that he was guilty. Intentionally or unintentionally, he was still reminding Wang Shu not to plead again, otherwise he would be deliberately hated with it. Wang Shu had to silence and let those people be dragged down.

She was sent back to Mohua Palace by the maid beside Xiao Yuanqi. Wang Shu secretly guessed that the emperor was indeed wise, and he did not let her be proud when he dealt with Wu Wanqing...

Wang Shu smiled softly and looked at the Guixiang Palace not far away. Wu Wanqing, if you let me lose my arm, I won't let you be free.

Then Wang Shu repeatedly shirked the emperor's call with physical discomfort. Wang Shu put most of her mind on dealing with harem affairs, which also gave other concubines a chance, so there was a situation of rain and dew in the harem. Among them, Li Jingwan was quite favored, followed by Chen Yunyun.

Shen Guifei became a forgotten blank in the harem.

Shen Sirong had her arrangement. The harem concubine forgot her, but Xiao Yuanqi did not forget her. The daily meals are sent by Guo Guanghai and Guo Gonggong. Eunuch Guo also told Shen Sirong what happened in the palace every day. When she knew that Wu Wanqing was demoted and Wang Shu was favored, her calm face was shrouded in a layer of smoke.

"Mother, someone from the palace is coming."

Shen Sirong followed the people to the side hall. Often the people in the palace would wait until she finished eating and go back to the palace. Therefore, Shen Sirong no longer went to the front hall to eat with the people in Shen's mansion.

She walked to the door of the side hall and didn't see Grandpa Guo, but saw a very unexpected person - Mother Lan.

Since the death of the late emperor, Mother Lan has arranged for Xiao Yuanqi to be around, but she only deals with chores and will not often appear in front of you. I haven't seen her for a long time.

"Why did Mother come here today?" Shen Sirong asked in surprise.

Mother Lan, dressed in a green palace costume, bowed down: "I have seen the noble concubine and returned to the noble concubine. Today, Eunuch Guo has something to do with, so the maidservant brought the meal to the maidservant."

Shen Sirong picked up Mother Lan and asked her to put the meals on the table one by one. Then she took Mother Lan's hand and walked out of the hall.

"Mother, this is..." Mother Lan looked back at the table full of exquisite food in a panic.

Shen Sirong smiled and said, "Mama, I don't have a good appetite near the Japanese palace. Where can I eat anything? Before, it was just because Eunuch Guo was an old man serving by the emperor. I couldn't bear to fight for his face. Today, when Mother came, I can slow down."

As he spoke, he didn't have to follow the freehand and disposed of the food on the table.

Lang Lan smiled and followed Shen Sirong around in Shen's house, and the atmosphere between the two was a little unclear. Shen Sirong chatted with her casually and sent her to the door of Shen's house in person.

"Please help me with this, don't talk about today's matter." Shen Sirong repeatedly told her that Mother Lan nodded in response.

Seeing Mother Lan's carriage back to the palace, Shen Sirong regained the clarity in her eyes. She asked in a low voice, "Can you check the meals just now?"

Since Mother Lan came, she has found something wrong with Shen Sirong. Naturally, she has carefully checked the food sent.

"The maidservant dumped those things into the backyard to feed the dog. If you want to know if there is any problem, just look at the dog."

Shen Sirong nods. After returning to Xiaoyuan, Shen Siyi came again.

At this time, Shen Siyi came to sit with her every day. Shen Sirong was made uneasy by her, so she had to carefully check the inside and outside of the house every time she left.

"Sister, have you had lunch?" Shen Siyi asked.

"I've used it and I'm full." Shen Sirong answered along the words.

Shen Siyi seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and smiled more happily: "Sister, I want to see your noble concubine's court uniform. Didn't you take it out of the palace?" Shen Siyi said coquettishly, and her eyes were looking at the house through the gauze from time to time.

"Good."

After agreeing, Shen Sirong led Shen Siyi into the inner room. Behind him, Shen Sirong secretly made a gesture to freehand. The freehand expression changed and he retreated gently.

"Come here, the dress is under the cabinet. Take it yourself."

Shen Sirong retreated, sat on the low couch, and let Shen Siyi do it herself. Shen Siyi opened the cabinet with a smile and looked inside.

"Sister, why didn't I find it?" Shen Siyi asked anxiously. Shen Sirong frowned slightly. She thought for a moment and pointed to the box on the right: "Open the box and have a look. It seems that I remembered the wrong place."

Shen Siyi opened the box and continued to look for it, and her freehandwriting returned to the house silently. She lowered her head and whispered a word in Shen Sirong's ear. Shen Sirong's face remained unchanged, but her eyes when she looked at Shen Siyi were a little colder.

"Have you found it?" Shen Sirong asked softly. There was a sarcastic smile on the corners of her lips. She stared at every move of Shen Siyi, and there were deep traces in her dark eyes.

"Forget it, I can't find it. Let's watch it next time." Shen Siyi turned around and held her mouth to Shen Sirong. Her eyes were full of unwillingness, but she no longer insisted.

There was a silence in the room, but the door knocked at the right time.

"Your concubine, second lady, lady asked the second lady to go to the room." Shen Siyi's maid called outside the door, and Shen Siyi answered impatiently, as if she were blaming.

"Sister, I'll go back first."

Shen Sirong nodded and asked her to leave Xiaoyuan. He closed the door and began to search the wardrobe and box. After a while, the freehandwriting came back.

"Mother, what did she do?" When he saw Shen Sirong looking through the wardrobe and box layer by layer, he stepped forward and asked uneasily.

Shen Sirong did not answer, and finally found something in the mezzanine of his clothes.
