Chapter 66 Isn't the Queen Jealous?

After sitting there for a while, Mu Tinng's face darkened when he saw that Wanyan Lin didn't want to take the initiative to speak. He coldly stepped into the main topic and asked, "Seventh Prince has lived in the orchid palace for a long time to recuperate. When the late emperor was alive, he had warned me not to let anyone disturb Seventh Prince. Therefore, since I ascended the throne, I have never come to visit him, and I have also issued an oral order not to allow anyone to disturb the orchid palace. It was just that there was almost a murder outside the orchid hall last night. Did Seventh Prince find anything unusual?"

"No." Wanyan Lin answered flatly. He turned to mu ting and asked, "Does your majesty suspect the orchid palace?"

"I want to know the truth." Mu Tinng replied ambiguously, locking Wanyan Lin's eyes tightly.

Ever since Mu Tinng knew Wanyan Lin's existence, he had never been in contact with him, but he knew that as a prince, he could never be an ordinary person, especially Wanyan Lin, who was a proton and a son of the middle palace.

However, Wanyan Lin's eyes did not waver at all. He said coldly, "Your majesty, please go back. Wanyan Lin has not recovered from his early injuries and needs to rest."

Inside the palace, Mu Tinng was ordered to leave by a proton. His face was so ugly that he brushed his sleeves and left.

When the palace gate in Orchid Palace was closed again, the attendant said, "Don't worry, master. Everything is arranged."

"Yes." After that, yan lin nodded and looked coldly at the seat where Mu Tinng had been sitting. A hint of disgust flashed past her and she ordered, "The furnishings in this room should be new too."

The attendant understood. He smashed the chair that Mu Tinng had been sitting on and silently cleaned up the residue. Wanyan Lin, on the other hand, drank the cup of tea that was still warm, and then walked back to bed.

Because of Empress Dowager's decree, Mu Tinng would be sitting in Phoenix Palace for an hour or two these two days, but he was reviewing the memorials, and Su Mianyue, in order not to face Mu Tinng, slept with his injuries.

It was the third day of his injury. The imperial physician changed the medicine and knelt down after informing Mu Tinng Su Mianyue of his injury. Su Mianyue could not pretend to be asleep and could only read on the soft pillow.

"Empress, the imperial doctor said you lost too much blood. You should eat more tonics to replenish your qi and blood. Just take two bites." Chunhua and Qiuyue stood by the bed and waited, whispering in fear of affecting Mu Tinng's reading.

"It's so sweet. I don't have an appetite. Take it." Su Mianyue frowned and turned his face away, unwilling to let his taste buds suffer.

Spring flowers and autumn moon persuaded a few more words. Seeing that Su Mianyue really did not want to eat, he was ready to take it down, but did not want to take the soup bowl with one big hand. When the two of them saw the master of the hand, they quickly bowed and saluted. "Your majesty."

"You guys go down, I'll do it." Mu Tinng's voice could not be heard to appease his anger, and the spring flowers and autumn moon hurriedly knelt down and retreated.

Su Mianyue was yawning, but when he heard Mu Tinng's voice, the drowsy man ran away. He sat up straight and looked at Mu Tinng with a bowl of soup by the bed. Afraid that he would come to feed him, he quickly reached out and took it, "The emperor still has government affairs to deal with, and the servants and concubines will come by themselves. They dare not ask the emperor to serve them."

After saying that, Su Mianyue raised her head and drank the soup. Besides the sweet taste, there was also a faint chinese medicine taste in her mouth, which made her extremely unhappy. She quickly picked up a piece of sour and sweet preserved fruit and put it into her mouth, then relaxed her brows.

Seeing that Su Mianyue really didn't like tonics, Mu Tinng said, "Let someone change your tonics tomorrow."

"Thank you, your majesty. The people below will arrange it for themselves." Su Mianyue didn't want to accept it. Seeing Mu Tinng looking at her with a complicated face, she felt uncomfortable all over. She quickly held her head and said, "Your concubine is dizzy. If you want to rest, please ask your majesty for permission."

Seeing that Su Mianyue was avoiding himself like a snake and scorpion, Mu Tinng frowned and asked, "The empress is so injured that she doesn't care about the perpetrator. Why should she hurt you?"

The imperial doctor said that the concubine had hurt her head, so it was best not to think too much or it would affect her recovery. Now that the concubine has transferred the power of the six palaces to Concubine De and Concubine Hua's sisters, I believe that they will help the emperor to govern the harem and give her justice. As for who the real culprit is and why he committed the crime, the result is the same whether the concubine knows or not. The wound on the head needs to be healed slowly, and the perpetrator either commits suicide in fear of the crime, or is it hard to escape death, right?"

Su Mianyue smiled faintly, but his smile was bitter and sad, "Your majesty, your concubines have already said that they are really open to it. They do not want to compete for favor or power anymore. They only wish to live in peace. But your concubines have only been in power for a few days and your life is almost gone. Can you be kind to your concubines and give this power to those who need it?"

"Oh?" Mu Tinng raised his eyebrows and asked, "Does the queen know who is behind this?"

Su Mianyue sneered and said, "What kind of crime is it to seriously injure the empress? Whether it is the former imperial harem or the common people in the city, it is only one word of power and one word of benefit that can make people commit a crime. The concubine admitted that she was young and frivolous and had many enemies. This injury may be deserved. The concubine admitted it and did not want to pursue it again."

Observing Su Mianyue's expression carefully and seeing that she had no other emotions besides bitterness, Mu Tinng subconsciously asked, "Does the queen not want revenge?"

"Revenge?" Su Mianyue laughed, as if he had heard a joke, and said to himself, "Don't say injury is a servant and concubine. Even if the person who is injured is the most important person in the emperor's heart, I'm afraid there will be no evidence. In the harem, the most important thing is to replace the dead, and the most important thing is the truth. This point, I believe that the emperor has more experience than his concubines, right?"

Mu Tinng did not change his face, but his eyes were dark. It was obvious that Su Mianyue's words violated his taboo. He shouted coldly, "The queen has gone overboard. Pay attention to your words."

"Your concubine can't even keep her life. Is it important to go overboard?" Su Mianyue's eyes were slightly red. She looked at Mu Tinng and turned away angrily. She said angrily, "Your majesty should go somewhere else to handle his business. I need to rest, and I'm afraid that I'll give it to your majesty after I get sick."

"Empress, it is best not to play any hard-to-get tricks. I will never be tempted by you. Empress is still dying to be favored." Mu Tinng's eyes were deep. Although he stood up, he was still staring at Su Mianyue's side face, as if he wanted to know if her words were true or not.

"Thank you, your majesty, for reminding me that I know myself well. Although I am useless or even inconvenient in your eyes, in your eyes, my life is very precious. I will never lose my life for the so-called love." Su Mianyue said coldly, but he thought to himself: Mu Tinng, as long as you don't go too far, I will never cause you any trouble. When the time comes, I will wave my hand and leave without a cloud.

"Su Mianyue, is this your attitude towards me?" Mu Tinng shouted in a deep voice, "I'm going to pass on prime minister su to the palace. I want to ask the Su Family how to raise my daughter. How can such a disrespectful woman be worthy of being a country's queen? Isn't it because Prime Minister Su has the heart of disobedience to send you to the palace to make the harem restless?"

"If you want to add to the crime, you can do whatever you want. Will the emperor not be afraid of hurting his subjects by doing this?" Su Mianyue smiled sarcastically, unwilling to turn around and look at Mu Tinng's face. It was just right to provoke her and change her mind for a few days.

"The sins of the queen are too numerous to be explained. If Empress Dowager did not favor you, why would I allow you to be so arrogant to this day? Queen, you dare to say that you are not jealous of Qingqing. Don't you want to replace him quickly?" Mu Tinng demanded sternly.

Su Mianyue had been attacked for no reason, but three days had passed without a word. Su Mianyue was already so angry that she was ridiculed by Mu Tinng. Su Mianyue's suppressed anger shot up. Su Mianyue might have thought that way before, but she changed her mind. What I hate most is a stallion like Mu Tinng!

Su Mianyue suddenly lifted the quilt, stood barefoot on the ground, and looked at Mu Tinng with four eyes. He stretched out three fingers in his right hand and swore to the heavenly alliance: "I, Su Mianyue, hereby swear to god that I will take back all my love and admiration for the emperor from now on and will never compete with any concubines for favor. Otherwise, I will have my intestines pierced through and my stomach will rot, and I will not be reborn after death!"

Su Mianyue's crisp but resolute words, and his solemn expression, were like a sharp sword piercing through Mu Tinng's heart, which made him a little unsteady.

However, the pain lasted only three seconds, and Mu Tinng raised his hand and slapped Su Mianyue in the face, throwing Su Mianyue out with great strength, which showed how angry he was.

There were 3,000 beautiful women in the harem, and everyone was looking forward to his grace. Even if it was only Enze, Su Mianyue, who had been willing to marry him by any means, showed that he did not care. This was a challenge to the majesty of the emperor!

"Ah!" Su Mianyue let out a cry of pain. His forehead hit the corner of the table, and his body fell limply to the ground.

Looking coldly at Su Mianyue's injury, Mu Tinng snorted, "Su Mianyue, put away your little tricks. I will not be soft-hearted for such a vicious woman like you. Since you swear by god, I will fulfill you and never step into Phoenix Palace again."

After saying this, Mu Tinng strode away without looking at su mianyue.

Chunhua and Qiuyue were waiting outside the door. When they saw Mu Tinng leaving, they immediately got up and went into the inner room to check on the situation. The result was that the two maids screamed in fear. Fortunately, Chunhua calmed down after shouting, which was due to Su Mianyue's frequent punishment.

"Help the empress to her bed." Chunhua pinched Qiuyue, who was stunned with fear, and the two carried Su Mianyue to the bed.

"Sister Chunhua, did the emperor do it?" Qiuyue asked in a trembling voice.

"Is this your business?" Chunhua glared at him and said, "Go and get the imperial physician."

Qiuyue woke up and ran out in a hurry, while Chunhua carefully untied the bandage on Su Mianyue's head, skillfully wiped her wound, and applied hemostatic. After doing this, the imperial physician was also dragged to Phoenix Palace by Qiuyue to see Su Mianyue.

"The empress is too badly injured and the old lady can't do anything about it," sighed the imperial physician.

"Imperial physician, you must save the empress." Spring flowers and autumn moon quickly knelt down and kowtowed to the imperial physician.

"It's not that the old lady doesn't want to be treated, it's that such a serious injury and a new one will inevitably leave a scar." As the imperial doctor spoke, he packed the medicine box and sighed, "When the empress wakes up, you should also advise her. This scar will not be too severe, but don't let the empress be upset."

The imperial physician said and left. Chunhua did not give away the reward purse in his hand. He could not help but complain, "This Imperial Physician Lee is really true. It sounds like the empress wants to... Bah bah bah, look at the mouth of the servant. Our empress is the mother of the country. She will live for a hundred years."

"Wow!" Chunhua could hold back her tears, but Qiuyue burst into tears. "The empress cares about her looks the most. She always says she has a face control. She's going to be disfigured this time. What can we do? The emperor must hate the empress even more. The empress is so pitiful."

"Shut up!" Chunhua quickly stepped forward to cover Qiuyue's mouth and whispered, "If you don't want your head, just take a knife to wipe your neck. If you spread your words, the empress will be implicated."

Qiuyue cried and nodded, indicating that he would control his mouth. Chunhua let go.

However, the two girls cried loudly in their arms. Fortunately, they did not cry out. Otherwise, Phoenix Palace would not be in a mess and think that Su Mianyue's time was coming.

Su Mianyue was in a coma for two days before he woke up. Empress Dowager had come to see him once and had sent a lot of tonics. He had decreed that no one would disturb the empress's recovery. When he returned to Cining Palace, he passed Mu Tinng over and taught her a few lessons. Only then did Mu Tinng know that he had done too much that day and that Su Mianyue was really injured.

Although he felt a little apologetic, Mu Tinng, as a king, would never bow to Su Mianyue. After all, Su Mianyue's oath that day angered Mu Tinng and could be treated as a crime of disrespect.

Naturally, the outside world would not know about the situation in the imperial palace. At this time, the envoys of various countries had arrived in Capital City and were respectively placed in the various courtyards of the post house. They could not interfere with each other, nor could they make good friends with each other in the post house, but they did not hinder their secret alliance.

On the first floor of Capital City's largest restaurant, business has been booming recently. In a private room on the second floor facing the street, two young men in chinese clothes and two young girls are sitting in this private room, but the atmosphere is very depressing.
