Chapter four hundred and eighty sixth: Opponent
"Mother is so late, where are you going?" Dugu Xiaomeng was concerned.
"I want to visit Xuande Hall." Concubine Xuan hesitated for a long time before he mustered up the courage to plead for Concubine Jin and the emperor.
"Mother, there is something fun today. I wonder if you have heard of it." Dugu Xiaomeng stuck out his tongue mischievously.
"About Concubine Jing?" Concubine Xuan saw through Dugu Xiaomeng's thoughts at a glance.
"I can't hide anything that I want to say, Mother Mother. It's indeed Concubine Jing. This is the first time I saw her crazy look and insisted on jumping down from the pavilion."
Dugu Xiaomeng was very worried about Concubine Jing and Shen Yikuo at that time, but afterwards, it was funny that the most favored concubine in the harem was actually a madman, and she always talked irrelevant nonsense.
"What did she do when she climbed the pavilion?" Concubine Xuan was really puzzled by Concubine Jing's words and deeds, and always felt that she seemed to be deliberately pretending to be crazy and stupid.
"It's said it's to catch pigeons, haha~" Dugu Xiaomeng couldn't stop laughing,
"Shen Yishu has suffered a lot recently because of her mother's mother?" Concubine Xuan tentatively.
"My son doesn't know much, but he met his mother and mother in Yumingyuan by chance, and happened to have a good show." Dugu Xiaomeng knew that Concubine Xuan did not like Shen Yishu, so she didn't want him to think that she was very close to Shen Yishu.
"As a mother, Concubine Jing, did not accumulate virtue and do good deeds for her daughter, otherwise she would not end up like this." Concubine Xuan couldn't stand Jing's arrogant attitude very much, and she had been tolerating her again and again.
"What the mother is saying is that I heard from my servant that Concubine Jing was once so fond of being flattered and often made trouble in the harem. It was Mother, you..." Dugu Xiaomeng was interrupted by him before he could flatter Concubine Xuan.
"It's all about the past. Many rumors have been over the years. Now it sounds either exaggerated or distorted. Don't take Xiaomeng too seriously." Concubine Xuan didn't want Dugu Xiaomeng to know the grievances of the past. In life, you must cherish the present and look forward to the future.
"My son is very careful to follow the teachings of his mother." Dugu Xiaomeng dared not say more.
"Yu'er is still waiting for you in the hall, go back early." Concubine Xuan patted Dugu Xiaomeng's shoulder and comforted her.
"The prince didn't come back for an afternoon, and I don't know where he went." Dugu Xiaomeng pretended to be pitiful just to attract sympathy from the people in front of him.
"Oh? Yu'er might have gone to listen to the show secretly again. Xiao Luzi, you can take two palace servants to find the prince now. Be careful and don't make a name for it." Concubine Xuan was afraid that the princess would be too careless, so she immediately sent her servants to find the prince.
"Thank you, Mother, I will send you to Xuande Palace!" Dugu Xiaomeng took the soup cup that Xiao Luzi was carrying while pleasing Concubine Xuan.
"Well... well! Xiaomeng is intent." Concubine Xuan took Dugu Xiaomeng's arm, and her eyes were not very good at night. From Yongyan Hall to Xuande Hall, there were more stone steps there, and it was not safe to beside the water.
Concubine Xuan came to Xuande Hall accompanied by Dugu Xiaomeng. Before she could enter, she heard a woman crying in the hall at the door.
"Xiaomeng, you go back to Yongyan Palace first. Maybe the prince has already returned." Concubine Xuan didn't want Dugu Xiaomeng to see the emperor's embarrassment.
"It's okay, I'm waiting for you here, so there's no hurry." Dugu Xiaomeng was afraid that Concubine Xuan would be too lonely to go back alone, so she just wanted to please her diligently.
"No need, if your father sees this outfit, it's time to get angry." Concubine Xuan said while pulling Dugu Xiaomeng's sleeves. She didn't expect that the palace robe she was wearing was made of good silk.
"Then... I will sue my son first." Dugu Xiaomeng carefully handed the soup bowl to Concubine Xuan.
"Thank you for your hard work in Xiaomeng, see you again~" Concubine Xuan took the soup cup and entered the hall thoughtfully.
"Emperor~Your Majesty~ Please, I have never asked you for anything in so many years. This time you will be kind and fulfill my wish to be a mother!!!"
The wailing sounds in Shen Yixiang's ears made him upset, but they made Concubine Xuan, who had sneaked in, feel sad.
"Your Majesty, you can do what you want to eat vegetarian food and chant Buddha's name for the royal family on weekdays, so let's do it!" Concubine Xuan put down the soup cup and immediately helped Concubine Zhuang who was lying on the ground.
"Do you know what she is going to do?" Shen Yixiang pointed at Concubine Xuan and asked.
"I don't know..." Although Concubine Xuan guessed that Concubine Zhuang was making trouble because of Shen Yien's incident, she did not dare to say anything bluntly.
"If you don't know, you dare to persuade me? Could it be that you encouraged her to make trouble with me?" Shen Yixiang was so angry that he was about to find an outlet to vent.
"I don't dare, I just understand the difficulty of Concubine Zhuang as a mother." Concubine Xuan took out a handkerchief and stuffed it to Concubine Zhuang, while responding to the emperor's question timidly.
"What a hard time being a mother. Is it difficult to be a mother in my harem? Is it difficult for me to blame you?" Shen Yixiang roared in a low roar so scared that Concubine Jing, who was hiding beside him, began to cry.
"Your Majesty, I dare not~" Concubine Xuan and Concubine Zhuang said in unison.
"Okay, okay, don't cry anymore. It's because I'm not good, I won't scare you anymore. Be good!" Shen Yixiang hugged Concubine Jing in his arms and comforted him, not caring whether the two concubines kneeling at his feet would be jealous or jealous.
"Your Majesty, please calm down and drink some calming soup. I have been waiting for you for an afternoon." Concubine Xuan knew that if she spoke for Concubine Jin again at this moment, it would only make the emperor even more angry.
"According to my will, you need the Shenshen Soup even more, take it away~" Shen Yixiang shook his hand, and Concubine Xuan fell to the ground with the force, and the soup splashed on Concubine Zhuang's face.
"Your Majesty, wuwu~" Concubine Zhuang cried even more fiercely.
"Sister Zhuang, sister didn't mean it." Concubine Xuan said while using her sleeve to help Concubine Zhuang dry the soup stains on her cheeks. "Your Majesty, you should not be angry because of Concubine Zhuang's piousness. If you have anything to do, tell the emperor, what's the use of just crying?"
"Okay, it's all that I'm not good, so you shouldn't be so excited. You all retreat." The emperor felt a little distressed when he saw Concubine Zhuang being detained.
"Your Majesty... Just give me my wish... Even if you just look at Nen'er, it's a fulfillment of my wish!" Concubine Zhuang was so angry that she cried.
"If I had known that, why should I have been today? You were forced out of the palace by you at a young age. At that time, I felt very sorry for him. What did you say? You said that a man should be independent early. You have little care for him for so many years. When you were in the imperial capital, you didn't want to see him. Now because I sent him to marry Jin Ge, why are you crying? Do you have to be angry with me? Can you insist on singing opposite me?"
Shen Yixiang was puzzled by Concubine Zhuang's words and deeds, and there were too many contradictions and doubts mixed in between.
