Chapter 258 Punish the Jade Concubine

The queen and Yao Yujiao frowned slightly. No one expected that Ji Shuidong would have such an opportunity to let the emperor treat each other with courtesy, but there was a trace of resentment in their hearts.

Is there really such good luck in winter? Or is it her disguise at all? Yao Yujiao took a deep look at her and then lowered her head.

"Did the Jade Concubine and Ji Zhaohua say that they would use the out-of-Palace theater team that day?" Li Qingxiao asked coldly. He was furious when he thought of this. He didn't expect that he would let the assassin appear under his eyes. This has never happened before. If it spreads, where is his majesty?

Ji Shuidong sat there in a panic and knelt on the ground quickly. "Your Majesty, I really don't know that there will be assassins in the troupe. Otherwise, how can such a thing happen? But in any case, it is the concubine who is greedy for a moment to cause such a result, so please punish the emperor.

Yao Yujiao gritted her teeth and looked at Ji Shuidong, and let her say all the good words. Isn't that bad for her? She quickly raised her head, looked at the condescending Li Qingxiao and cried and said, "Your Majesty, the guilty concubine and Ji Zhaohua are completely unaware of it. Otherwise, who would have foolishly let such a dangerous person appear in the palace? "

"Your Majesty, what the Jade Concubine and Ji Zhaohua said is true. My concubines are all women and children. How can they collude with any assassins?" The queen said quickly.

Li Qingxiao slightly raised his eyebrows. In fact, he doesn't understand this truth, but in such a scene, does he want to swallow this anger into his stomach?

When Yao Yulu woke up, the sky was already dark. She sighed slightly. The pain in her stomach disappeared. Her hand was attached to her stomach, and she could faintly feel the trembling of the little life in her stomach.

"Mother, you're awake." Xiao Xuanzi stood aside and asked with concern, and handed Yao Yulu a few pills.

Yao Yulu didn't even look at it and ate the pills directly. Because she trusted Xiao Xuanzi, she didn't need to ask at all, let alone question.

"Is the child all right?" Yao Yulu was still a little weak and quickly asked.

Xuanzi nodded, "The child is fine, but the mother's body still needs to be maintained. She is already short of breath, but now such a thing has happened again. I'm afraid that the mother will have to be careful in the next few months."

"I know that I have survived such a difficult time in the cold palace, and now I have been out of the cold palace. Can I still make my child have problems?" Yao Yulu said with deep eyes.

When Xiao Xuanzi saw Yao Yulu's expression, he couldn't help thinking of something and quickly asked, "Mother, what happened at that time? Is it because there are many people who accidentally fall down, or is it done by someone with intention..."

Yao Yulu hummed gently, and her tone seemed a little disdainful, but the hatred in her eyes was not hidden. She was silent for a while and slowly said, "It's Concubine Jin. She has never been compatible with me. When Xiao Shufei died, I was favored again. Maybe how resentful she is. Now it's just It's just a resentful woman in the palace, but I can't swallow this breath!"

"What does the mother want?" Xiao Xuanzi asked softly, trying not to look at the fierceness in Yao Yulu's eyes. He sighed in his heart that he could really change a lot of people in the palace. Even though it was Yao Yulu, he could now become fierce and calculating.

"According to the law, Li Lingyun used to pretend to be a ghost to scare her. She was very timid. If it hadn't been for Xiao Shufei, she would have gone crazy, but the current situation would have made her crazy directly!" Yao Yulu said word by word, her face was very calm, as if she were talking about her family.

Xiao Xuanzi first frowned and then nodded, "Okay, leave this matter to the slave."

Xuanzi looked up at Yao Yulu and only felt that she was no longer as simple as before. Her idea was simple. Maybe a series of things in the palace made Yao Yulu stronger and more able to see how cold the palace was.

"No hurry, when will I ask you to go? You can go again." Yao Yulu spoke lightly.

Xuanzi nodded, but he really didn't want her hands to be dyed red. If he really wanted to do that, he would be willing to dye his hands red for her without complaining.

There was a silence in the Qianqing Palace. Just as Li Qingxiao was about to speak, the voice of the empress dowager came from outside. The empress dowager came in with a gloomy face. I don't know whether it was because of the shock in the morning or the resentment against Yufei and others. Anyway, the empress dowager's face was very ugly.

"Emperor, what the hell is going on? I heard that the mourning family is all caused by this jade concubine? The Empress Dowager asked harshly and looked at Yao Yujiao with sharp eyes.

Yao Yujiao was slightly shocked and sighed. She must have escaped the crime today. She didn't expect that the Empress Dowager would also come to intervene. Who in the palace didn't know that the Empress Dowager didn't like her? And hate her very much? Now at this time, and saying these words, it is clear that he deliberately made things difficult for her.

"After the mother, Yufei and Ji Zhaohua just wanted to change their ideas, but they didn't expect to be mixed in by the assassin." Li Qingxiao quickly explained, but this explanation seemed a little far-fetched.

The talisman in General Yao Guozhang's hand is something that Li Qingxiao is afraid of, and in conjunction with today's assassin, some people can't help but take this matter to General Yao's head. After all, there is also an indispensable connection with Yufei.

"Humph, emperor, don't speak for her. Such a thing has never happened every year. Why has such a thing happened in several years? And because of the relationship of the Jade Concubine, won't the emperor investigate it thoroughly? The Empress Dowager said coldly, looking at Yao Yujiao more fiercely.

Yao Yujiao looked up and stared at the Empress Dowager fiercely and scolded in her heart. This old lady obviously wanted to find trouble, and then took the blame on her body, thus removing her Yao family. As soon as she thought of this, Yao Yujiao's heart trembled. No, she couldn't let the Empress Dowager be innocent!

"Empress dowager, the guilty concubine was wronged. How could the guilty concubine know that such a thing would happen? And at that time, Ji Zhaohua also agreed with the guilty concubine. Did Ji Zhaohua also do it with the guilty concubine?" Yao Yujiao cried and couldn't help looking at Li Qingxiao with a look of pity.

Originally, Li Qingxiao had feelings for Yao Yujiao, but now she really can't bear to see her aggrieved look.

"Water Winter also agreed?" The Empress Dowager's voice was a little heavy and asked faintly.

Ji Shuidong nodded quickly, "My concubine was just greedy for freshness for a while, and I really didn't expect what kind of trouble it would cause."

The Empress Dowager's eyes swept the wound on Ji Shuidong's arm, and her face immediately became a little worried. She quickly asked, "Shuidong, what's wrong with your arm?"

"My concubine's arm was accidentally scratched by an assassin." Ji Shuidong quickly replied.

The Empress Dowager nodded, "Shuidong has suffered so much, so don't punish, but the rest of the people must be severely punished, otherwise they should not remember the rules in the palace!"

Yao Yujiao's heart trembled and gritted her teeth fiercely. The Empress Dowager's words were clearly what she said to her. I didn't expect that the Empress Dowager would be so obvious against her. Has General Yao's snobbery had a great impact?

"The emperor clearly observes that my concubine really has no two minds." Yao Yujiao said with tears.

A trace of embarrassment flashed on Li Qingxiao's face, and he couldn't help tossing around. He wanted to say that he didn't care about Yao Guozhang's speculation, but as soon as he saw Yao Yujiao's tearful eyes, he couldn't be heart.

"Well, the emperor can't make the decision on this matter, so the family is in charge. Yufei has made a big mistake this time. How can she escape the death penalty? Pull down the stick and beat 20." The Empress Dowager said coldly, "It's not a heavy punishment for the family."

Yao Yujiao gritted her teeth fiercely and said slowly, "Thank you for not killing the Empress Dowager!"

The Empress Dowager closed her eyes and then waved her hand, " Pull it down."

Suddenly, some eunuchs came up and pulled Yao Yujiao down. Yao Yujiao stared at the empress dowager fiercely, and her face became very fierce.

It's just that Yao Yujiao was beaten outside and fainted. The official of the cane punishment quickly reported that Li Qingxiao's face was full of worry and hurriedly said, "Please ask the imperial doctor first. Maybe it's not that something has been damaged."
