C110 – It’s Not like This
“What exactly is going on? Speak clearly! ” The emperor angrily chased all the servants out. In an instant, only one man, two women were left in the room.
Concubine Yang and Imperial Consort Yun were kneeling on the ground, both of them still had traces of tears on their faces. Compared to Concubine Yang, who was silently crying, Imperial Consort Yun’s crying sound clearly had more power, it actually looked so pitiful.
It was a pity that the Emperor knew that the woman he loved was not a weak woman. What he liked was precisely her wit and boldness.
“Concubine Yang, let us be sisters, I think that I have treated you well, how can you slander me?” Imperial Consort Yun instantly pointed her spear at him.
Concubine Yang received the news this morning. She knew, if it was true, even if this matter didn’t kill Imperial Consort Yun, it would definitely be able to pull her down from the throne of Imperial Consort.
By then, he would be the only concubine in the harem with a prince. The emperor would definitely place greater importance on him.
That was why her son had no choice but to compete for military merits in the battlefield. Compared to the First Prince and Third Prince, the treatment of the Second Prince had always been a knot in her heart.
Now that there was such a good opportunity in front of her, how could she let it go?
However, she wasn’t a brainless person. It would be good if this was true, but if it was just a rumor, then she would be the one out of luck.
Because the main culprit was not here, and most of her trusted aides had been taken away as well, her spies quickly found the item and buried it under the crabapple tree in the courtyard. If it wasn’t for the fact that her informant was clever and meticulous, it would have been very difficult to find it.
It was said that under the crabapple tree, there was a wooden box buried. Inside the box, there was a human-shaped puppet, and on top of the puppet, there was a piece of red paper with the words’ Birthday ‘written on it.
The spy did not know who the word “birthday” belonged to, but Concubine Yang knew immediately after hearing it.
She never thought that the Imperial Consort Yun would be so bold as to dare to curse the Emperor.
The Emperor, after all, had countless beauties in the harem. Who knew when the emperor would lose his favour, but the only son he had was his own son, so of course his son would be more reliable.
That was why the women in the harem always wanted to have a son.
After obtaining an affirmative answer, the Concubine Yang immediately ordered some people to find the Second Prince, wanting to discuss with him how to report this matter.
This time, she might even be able to uproot Imperial Consort Yun’s mother, son and Yun Family completely. Without a competitor like the First Prince, wouldn’t the throne belong to her son?
The more he thought about it, the more excited he became. When Concubine Yang heard that Second Prince had left for the barracks, she decided not to wait anymore.
“Your majesty, chenqie also doesn’t believe that Imperial Consort’s little sister would do such a thing. That’s why chenqie doesn’t dare to say it, but this is a very serious matter.
The emperor’s face was ashen as he asked solemnly, “Which servant told you this? “I am going to interrogate him myself!”
“Ah ...” When the Concubine Yang saw the figurine, she covered her mouth and retreated a few steps back, staring at the Imperial Consort Yun in disbelief.
Imperial Consort Yun was equally shocked. She took three steps forward to grab the wooden box, and when she clearly saw the word ‘birthday’ stuck on the puppet, she was completely stunned.
“Pa Da ...” The wooden box fell onto the ground, causing everyone to see fear in Imperial Consort Yun’s eyes as she fell backwards.
The emperor quickly caught the person and shouted, “Inform the imperial physician!”
He had already mentally prepared himself for the worst. Focusing and looking at the puppet, he saw that it was engraved with a sinister looking face, like that of an evil ghost, and there was a piece of red paper stuck on his chest. On it were the words’ birthdate ‘, which he was familiar with, but there was a blood-red cross for each word.
“Your Majesty, this ...” “Don’t blame Little Sister Imperial Consort. She definitely didn’t do it. All these years ...”
“Shut up!” The Emperor growled, his hands slightly trembling.
On the contrary, he felt that it would be better if the Emperor was angry. Let’s see what the Imperial Consort Yun has to say this time.
She secretly paid attention to the emperor’s expression, only to see his face full of grief. Carefully pulling out the needles on the puppet one by one, she said, “Go, go to the Great Phase Temple and ask for the Hidden Cloud Mage!”
Lai Jiquan also saw the two words “birthday” on the golem statue and was shocked. He immediately lowered his head and replied: “Yes, this old servant will go right away.”
He returned the puppet back into the box and wordlessly guarded Imperial Consort Yun’s side. He even gently covered her with a blanket.
Concubine Yang was a little confused. She felt that the situation was developing in a direction that made her shocked. She opened her mouth to say something, but was frightened by the emperor’s sharp gaze.
“Your Majesty ...”
“Someone ...” The guards outside heard the summons and rushed in.
The emperor pointed at the Concubine Yang and ordered, “Take this woman down to the Heaven Prison and pass on my orders to bring the two emperors back to the capital.”
“Your Majesty ...” The Concubine Yang exclaimed as she looked at the emperor in disbelief. With a frightened voice, she shouted, “Your majesty, no ... “It’s not like that ...”
How could this be the result? Why does the Emperor still believe that woman? Did the Emperor trust that woman no matter what she did?
Ha, then what was the point of doing all this?
When the guards saw that the emperor did not even look at the Concubine Yang, they already knew the answer, so they grabbed her arms and dragged her out.
“No ...” “It’s not like that. Your majesty, why don’t you trust your concubine? ...” This concubine has been peaceful for so many years, when have I ever done such a malicious thing? ... Your Majesty, don’t be fooled by that slut ... “Howl ...”
A guard pointed at the Concubine Yang’s cave before quietly bringing the person away.
