Chapter 124 The Irritated Villain’s Beloved (18)
Everyone knows that Bai Xingzhou is rich.
In addition to money, Bai Xingzhou has extraordinary skills and talents that are not inferior to those of court officials.
He has everything that civil servants and military generals have. They may not have everything that Bai Xingzhou has.
Bai Xingzhou has his benefits. The late emperor understood it, and the current emperor also understands it.
Winning over the Duke of Zhenguo will be beneficial to the court and the country, and the emperor will not embarrass the Duke of Zhenguo because of personal affairs.
But Liu Ru'er is not the emperor, she only considers her own interests and the interests of the family.
After she woke up, Liu Ruer beat and scolded all the palace people around her.
She was angry and all her plans were ruined. How could she change the situation now?
After all, Liu Gong was also her uncle. Even if Liu Yuanqing didn't mention it to her, Liu Ru'er would rescue people from the Ministry of Punishment.
However, the emperor's imperial edict has been issued, and Mr. Liu has been imprisoned for many days. He has been beaten when he should be beaten, and he has been tried when he should be tried. It is meaningless for Liu Ru'er to save people again.
It was common for palace concubines to kill eunuchs and maids in their own palaces, but Liu Ru'er's servants in the palace died too many times. Eunuch Ye knew he could not hide it, so he informed the emperor first.
"In the past, I only knew that she had a pure heart. Why did she become like this today? Is it because I allowed the Duke of Zhen to cancel the engagement, and the noble concubine became angry?"
Eunuch Ye choked with sobs, thought for a while, and told in detail the number of people in the palace who beat the imperial concubine to death, as well as the date.
The first palace maid to be beaten to death was one month before the imperial concubine entered the palace, and the prince was not in the capital at that time.
This crime cannot be blamed on the Duke of Zhenguo.
From the moment Eunuch Ye read his first name, the emperor's whole body exuded the aura of keeping strangers away.
His noble concubine, his true love, turned out not to be the kind-hearted person he saw.
No wonder Concubine Liu Shu cried to him, but he ignored her again and again, thinking that it was a harem fight between them and Concubine Liu framed Liu Ru'er.
In this way, those unjust souls who died in vain were not killed by Wei Jiayu, but...
The emperor did not dare to continue thinking.
What is truth and what is false? How much is his true love hidden from him?
Eunuch Ye has followed the emperor for many years. If the emperor frowns once, he can guess what he will say next.
For two days in a row, His Majesty did not see the imperial concubine. Eunuch Ye raised his eyes to look at the sky outside. The sky in the harem was also about to change.
Bai Xingzhou was not surprised when the news reached the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion.
What concerned Bai Xingzhou even more was Duke Liu's execution.
Spying on the concubine and entering the concubine's palace. The Ministry of Punishment could not convict Liu Gong based on the testimony of the two empresses alone. However, it was difficult for the emperor to explain, so he had to follow the existing laws of the Yuan Kingdom and punish Liu Gong to go home and shut up to reflect on his mistakes.
The money has been used to comfort the two empresses.
Mr. Liu started his career in business, and money was nothing to him.
The Ministry of Punishment knew about his family fortune and took two-thirds of it, half of it was given to the two empresses, and the other half was put into the national treasury.
One-third of Duke Liu's salary is naturally not comparable to Concubine Liu Shu's monthly salary.
Give her some comfort and let her cry in front of the emperor. Not to mention the money, the amount of gold, silver and jewelry the emperor rewarded was an amount that Concubine Liu Shu did not dare to think of in the past.
Xiao Meiren reminded her not to forget her sense of propriety for a moment. They are still victims and Liu Ru'er is still a noble concubine.
"Sister, as long as she reigns for one day, she will make a comeback. We can't eradicate the root cause, so how can we secure a stable harem? Now His Majesty is busy in the past, and my sister is the most senior in the palace. Your Majesty will more or less listen to what my sister says."
"Tell me," Concubine Liu Shu understood Xiao Meiren and patted the back of Xiao Meiren's hand, "Sister, tell me what you have to say. If my sister becomes something in the future, I will definitely not forget my sister's benefits."
Xiao Mei's family background is not as good as that of Liu Shufei.
Concubine Liu Shu knew that Xiao Meiren entered the palace for her family, but she had been in the palace for many years but could not get the Sacred Heart.
After all, they are all the same.
Not only for myself, but also for the family behind me.
Now that Liu Ru'er is the only favorite, and the Liu family is spread all over the court, their chances of climbing up are slim. The only way to solve the crisis is to stay together for warmth.
Miss Xiao is a sensible person.
If she wants to survive, she will have to rely on Concubine Liu Shu for the rest of her life.
She doesn't want much, she just wants the safety of her family.
"There haven't been any new faces in the palace for a long time. The previous Wei nobleman is somewhat similar to the noble concubine. There are too many similar people in the world. Why not, sister..."
Getting close to Concubine Liu Shu, Xiao Meiren informed her of her plan.
Concubine Liu Shu understood.
Although Wei Jiayu died, His Majesty did not allow her to enter the imperial mausoleum. However, there is a portrait of Wei Jiayu hidden in His Majesty's palace.
It is definitely Wei Jiayu, not Liu Ruer.
Concubine Liu Shu could see clearly that Wei Jiayu had a mole at the corner of her eye, but Liu Ruer did not.
If there was no mole, Wei Jiayu and Liu Ruer would think they were twins if they didn't look carefully.
It is not difficult to find similar people. What is difficult is how to get the emperor to like him and how to keep the other person within his control.
Concubine Liu Shu must think carefully about Xiao Meiren's plan.
"If the other party is not controllable, I'm afraid it will become the second Liu Ru'er." One Liu Ru'er is enough, and Liu Shufei doesn't want to continue to toss.
Xiao Meiren understands that it is difficult to succeed.
There is never a shortcut to success. Xiao Meiren suggested that Concubine Liu Shu leave the palace.
When looking for someone, in addition to appearance, Xiao Meiren pointed out that Liu Shufei should start from Wei Jiayu's past special features.
Wei Jiayu was a talented woman before she entered the palace. Her brother Wei Changyuan was the only one in the capital who could match her in talent?
It's a pity that he is a man. If he were a woman, Concubine Liu Shu would definitely have him tied up in the palace and sent to the emperor's palace.
"Sister, don't worry. If you don't have it in the capital, then look for it elsewhere. Isn't the wife of Lord Zhen Guo the princess of Nanhuai County? My sister heard that there are many princesses in the Nanhuai royal family. They all stay in the boudoir and let Duke Zhen Guo pull the strings. I believe it.
The Duke of Zhenguo will not refuse."
It is said that they are relatives. As far as Xiao Meiren knows, Zhen Guogong's wife and the current Emperor Nanhuai are cousins and not close. Moreover, Zhen Guogong's wife ran away from home and met Zhen Guogong, and the current prince is
He is the brother of the Duke of Zhenguo.
The Nanhuai royal family is now the same as the Yuan Kingdom. The concubine's pillow blowing almost made the Nanhuai Emperor stupid.
A sharp look flashed in Liu Shufei's eyes.
Since Liu Ruer already has this title, the demon concubine who brought disaster to the country, why not pin it firmly on her head?
"Sister, do you know why Liu Ruer insists that Liu Shaoyu and Bai Qingzhi get married? Although this marriage was given by the late emperor, given the temperament of the Duke of Zhenguo, he could just break off the engagement and run away with his daughter."
"Sister, Liu Ru'er doesn't like Bai Qingzhi. They had conflicts before she entered the palace." Beauty Xiao has a lot of gossip, and most of what she knows is learned from others.
Before entering the palace, Xiao Meiren had met Bai Qingzhi at a banquet. At that time, Liu Ruer was still the eldest lady of the Shangshu Mansion.
Although she did not attack Bai Qingzhi in public, Xiao Meiren could really see the resentment towards each other in their eyes.
I was so fascinated by it that Miss Xiao even missed the opportunity to perform.
It was this mistake that allowed Xiao Meiren to enter the palace and become the emperor's concubine instead of Liu Ruer's sister-in-law.
