The emperor's eyes narrowed dangerously. He looked at the injuries on Concubine Qi's face, and then at Concubine Qi's tightly closed mouth. He further confirmed his guess, "It seems that Concubine, you usually offend a lot of people."

ah!"

"Your Majesty...how could you say such things to me?" Concubine Qi was panicked, "It's not what you think. The last thing I should do is to offend the princess."

"Princess?" The emperor snorted coldly, "Where do you start talking about your concubine?"

"Your Majesty, since Princess Yongchen returned to the capital, everyone has been unhappy when we met several times." Concubine Qi didn't know how to explain it, but after thinking about it, she continued, "This palace should belong to

Princess Yongchen hates me the most. You see, she talks back to me every time. Looking at the entire Shangzhou Dynasty, no one dares to do this to me." Chinese website

Concubine Qi lowered her head aggrievedly and looked at her fingers, waiting for the emperor to answer.

As a result, the emperor did not continue to investigate at all. Anyone with a discerning eye knew that these gatherings were all caused by the Qi family and Feng Yuanqing, together with their concubine Zi Chu, to embarrass Princess Yongchen. However, they missed the target every time, and Ziyao was actually

It was a blessing in disguise that he gained his own reputation.

The emperor was too lazy to pay attention to her, but told Mr. Sheng, "Hurry up and help Concubine Qi to see if she is lying."

"Your Majesty, why do you speak so of my concubine?"

Concubine Qi was angry and still squirming. Old Marquis Sheng responded, stretched out his hand, and lifted the cloth from Concubine Qi's face, revealing her entire face, with shocking scars on it.

Only then did Concubine Qi react: "Your Majesty, don't look at me." Concubine Qi cried, "Don't look at me, don't look at me, I'm not like this."

"How could this happen?" The emperor looked at Concubine Qi with wide eyes.

The emperor looked at Concubine Qi, then raised his head and looked at Mr. Sheng: "Tell me, what is going on?"

"This injury must have been caused by some kind of poison. The wound cannot heal and will ooze blood all year round." Mr. Sheng also had a look of helplessness on his face.

"You're talking nonsense! I clearly used the best ointment, how could this happen?" Concubine Qi said excitedly, "You must be lying. You must know that it was Sheng Zhiyao who did it. She has a grudge against me. It must be her.

You are doing something stupid!"

"Your Majesty, what you said is chilling." Mr. Sheng said in a deep voice, "Don't slander my granddaughter. She is such a kind and well-behaved child. How could she do such a thing as murdering you?"

.”

"No, it must be her, it must be her!" Concubine Qi looked hysterical, "You must know what she is planning, right?"

The emperor's face became increasingly gloomy as he listened to Concubine Qi's hysterical voice.

Such a crazy and stupid Concubine Qi, how could he fall in love with such a woman? He is really blind!

Seeing that the emperor's face was getting more and more ugly, Mr. Sheng quickly added some fuel: "Your Majesty, please calm down. I don't know where my Zhi Yao offended Concubine Qi. Please be aware of everything and don't wrong her."

"Shut up!" Concubine Qi shouted sternly, "You are her biological grandfather, of course you protect her! You are all in the same group!"

Mr. Sheng sneered: "My dearest concubine, please be careful with your words, otherwise don't blame me for not caring about your feelings."

"I'm not wrong, she is a vicious woman!" Concubine Qi said as she rushed to grab Mr. Sheng's clothes, "You are all bad guys!"

"Presumptuous!" The emperor slapped the table and stood up, "Back off."

Concubine Qi wanted to scream again, but was silenced by the emperor's sharp look.

The emperor walked up to Concubine Qi and looked at her condescendingly.

Concubine Qi's heart jumped suddenly, and she felt a sense of fear in her heart. This was a feeling she had never felt before. It was as if someone had pinched her neck hard, she couldn't breathe, and she even felt that she was about to die.

.

The emperor's eyes were as sharp as swords. Concubine Qi had never seen such eyes before.

"I say it again, stand down." The emperor said coldly.

Concubine Qi was frightened by such a look. She quickly stepped back, then knelt on the ground and kowtowed:

"I know I was wrong."

"Humph." The emperor snorted coldly, turned to Old Marquis Sheng and said, "Zhi Yao needs to be taught a lesson. You have to say hello no matter what when you go out to play."

Lord Sheng quickly agreed: "I obey the decree."

After saying that, he glanced at Concubine Qi and sighed secretly: "Your face is starting to swell. Ask someone to bring some ice cubes to apply it."

Concubine Qi was stunned: "No need, right? It's just some redness and swelling."

"Aren't you embarrassed enough?" The emperor scolded angrily, "You are ready to give up on this face, right? Hurry up and get ice cubes!"

Concubine Qi could only compromise: "Yes, I know."

After saying that, she quickly gave Qingyun a look.

Qingyun understood and immediately left the hall in a hurry with the palace maids and eunuchs.

Concubine Qi wiped her tears and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty... the concubine's face must have been caused by the princess."

The emperor frowned: "Are you sure?"

"Yes, it must have been the princess who did it. She must have a grudge. I know her behavior best, and she definitely did it on purpose." Concubine Qi said angrily.

"Why did she do this?" the emperor asked.

"I don't know..." Concubine Qi bit her lip and shook her head, "Yesterday I clearly refused to help me make lunch, but then I came over again. I felt that she was strange, but I couldn't figure it out.

What exactly does she want to do?"

The emperor narrowed his eyes. Everything Concubine Qi said was true, but she said, "I called Zhi Yao here because she has medical skills. I wanted her to come and see what's wrong with you."

"Qi Guifei, you said you haven't seen my granddaughter, why do you think my granddaughter is strange?" Mr. Sheng asked coldly, "And why do you insist that it was her who harmed you?"

Concubine Qi looked at Mr. Sheng and hesitated for a moment before saying, "Who else could it be if she wasn't her?"

"Speak clearly and don't be vague. How could our Yao do such a thing?" Mr. Sheng frowned and said, "Besides, if you don't speak clearly, you are slandering."

"Your Majesty, I am a concubine..." Concubine Qi was speechless for a moment, "I am a concubine..."

"Okay." The emperor waved his hand to interrupt Concubine Qi, "I believe Zhiyao would not do such a thing."

Concubine Qi gritted her teeth and said, "But she just did it."

"Okay! Before the matter is investigated clearly, shut up! And why are the people below you so slow to get an ice cube?" The emperor glared at the palace maid and eunuch behind Concubine Qi, and shouted coldly.

Concubine Qi was so angry that her face turned green. The emperor had never been so cruel to her. Now he dared to yell at her because of that stinky girl. It was simply unreasonable!
