C158 disobedience to Her Majesty

"Did you hear? It was said that Consort De was released again." A palace maid spoke softly to another palace maid, and it just so happened that Lian Yun, who was at the side, heard the conversation. She initially wanted to ask about it, but after thinking about the relationship between Consort De and her own master, she immediately left.

The news of Consort De being under house arrest and being released had already spread throughout the entire palace, and even Xiao Shushen was no exception.

"Damn it!" The sound of her scolding showed the restlessness in her heart.

Gui mama advised while avoiding the fragments of the tea cup that the Queen had smashed down, "Calm down, Queen!"

The Queen glared at Gui mama at the side, but quickly calmed down again and asked, "Gui mama, what do you think?"

He really did not expect that after assaulting her several times, she would still be safe and sound. Even though he wanted to frame Consort De, he did not succeed.

"According to this old servant, this Concubine Xian should be eliminated as soon as possible. Otherwise, the master's grand scheme will be ruined sooner or later." Gui mama's eyes were cold, the words that came out of his mouth made people shudder, but luckily there were only the two of them in the room.

Hearing that, Xiao Shushen nodded her head, the Consort Xian was getting out of control, if she did not quickly get rid of it, it was possible that she would become a stumbling block for her in the future.

"You're right, we can't let this person stay any longer." Xiao Shushen's expression grew colder and colder, and she could no longer conceal the sinister look in her eyes.

The two words "Consort De" could not be spoken of too deeply in the palace. The Consort De was placed under house arrest and then released. In the end, Fu Yuheng did not give everyone a proper explanation. As a result, many people were dissatisfied, including the empress dowager.

"Your majesty sure has a good heart." The empress dowager turned her head away, not even looking Fu Yuheng in the eye. "You even have to spare the person who tried to commit suicide." As he spoke, his tone became even more unfriendly.

Fu Yuheng was startled. He knew that Yun Che was talking about the Consort De but he was unable to explain the reason for this matter. As such, he could only keep silent.

But the empress dowager had no intention of letting him go. "What? "Does the emperor think that This Dowager's words are wrong?" These words seemed to contain an intention to interrogate him.

"I have thought about this matter. Please rest assured that I will take care of it myself." Fu Yuheng knitted his sword-like brows tightly, but his tone was still as gentle as possible.

"Hmph, does the emperor mean that this one is meddling in other people's business?" The empress dowager's peaceful expression suddenly changed, and she looked at him with a slightly unhappy expression.

She had watched him grow up and had always treated her with respect and filial piety. She had never expected that since then, Wu Ni would act so courteously towards her. For a moment, she felt displeased in her heart.

"The empress dowager can rest in peace here. Zhen will take care of my matters." Fu Yuheng was impatient, but his tone was firm. If she continued like this, perhaps one day, she would think that this world was hers.

The empress dowager opened her mouth, but felt a lump in her throat as she swallowed back the words she was about to spit out. In the end, she could only sigh.

If it was before, Fu Yuheng would definitely step forward to console him. However, it was true that he had nothing to say now.

"I still have some work to do, so I won't disturb your leisure." With that, he flicked his sleeve and left.

Xiao Shushen felt uncomfortable when she was in the courtyard, so she wanted to go for a walk. Coincidentally, she met two palace maids there, chattering away.

Upon hearing those words, Zhang Xuan was astounded.

"The emperor actually disrespected the empress dowager for the sake of the Consort De!" As the palace maid spoke, she did not notice that there was already someone else listening beside her. Furthermore, it was the Empress!

"It has to be said that our emperor has always been filial and filial. This is a true disaster for a beautiful woman."

Xiao Shushen was shocked. It was definitely not that simple for the Emperor to let go of the Consort De. It was probably because her scheme had been discovered that the Emperor had concealed it. One or two times would be alright, but if she were to stay long, the emperor would sooner or later give her a break.

"Don't tell me that none of you are afraid of your tongues being cut off!" Xiao Shushen stepped forward and shouted. The venom in his words caused the two palace maids to kneel down in fright.

They had not seen when the Empress had appeared behind them. Now that they heard them talking about it, if they were to be jealous of the Consort De, they might …

"Queen, spare me!" Queen, spare me! " "This servant just doesn't like the emperor being so good to the Consort De, it's just that I feel unsatisfied, so I just said a few more words, I hope esteemed Empress can forgive me." This palace maid had been in the palace for a long time, so he was quite quick-witted and knew how to vent her anger.

"You actually know that this is nonsense!" Xiao Shushen snorted, "Gui mama, drag him down and beat him into ten different groups. This is a next time offense, then throw him out of the palace!"

When the two palace maids heard this, they hurriedly kowtowed to express their gratitude. The ten boards were still considered few. If it was according to the rules of the palace, discussing about their master would have their tongues pulled out.

"Remember not to do it again!" After saying that, Xiao Shushen no longer looked at them.

The moment Shen Lihan was released from her confinement, she rushed straight to Shen Qingwan's courtyard. He knew that if it weren't for his help, she would probably be imprisoned for the rest of her life.

What I really care about is not how the Consort De is, but why the Emperor was so biased towards the Queen, and even did not hesitate to accept the gossip from the crowd to suppress this matter.

"Esteemed Empress, I've brought her to you. This palace maid said she worked by the empress's side before. She knows why the emperor treats the empress so special." Lian Yun brought a palace maid in, and upon entering, that palace maid looked to be quite old.

"Oh?" Shen Qingwan didn't expect to find someone she knew so quickly. She thought she would have to look for someone for a while.

"This servant greets the Empress." Seeing Shen Qingwan let her get up, she then stood up and continued, "This servant was originally the empress's first maid, but after making a mistake, I was reduced to being a rough maid."

Shen Qingwan nodded her head in understanding.

The servant girl continued to explain. It was late at night when Shen Qingwan told her to go back. However, she already knew the whole story.

The reason why Fu Yuheng treated the empress so differently was because he wanted to start from the moment the empress entered the palace. At that time, an envoy came to pay his tribute, but he did not miss his shot at the time of the hunt, and the arrow was aimed directly at him. In order to save him, Xiao Shushen had used his own body to block the arrow. However, after so long, not many people knew about this matter. Adding on to the fact that many people had already been switched out, only a few knew about it.
