Her Highness Doesn’t Want to Work Hard Anymore

After settling down her son, Concubine Liu Gui wiped away her tears.

She walked out of the bedroom and saw Wu Wang waiting outside the door.

Wu Wang clasped his hands in salute: "The servants pay respects to the imperial concubine and empress."

Concubine Liu Gui's eyes were still red, but she still raised her airs as a noble concubine and asked arrogantly.

"How did you come?"

Wu Wang replied truthfully: "The sage was very worried when he heard that the fifth prince was ill, so he specially sent his slaves over to see if there is any need for help?"

Concubine Liu Gui knew that she should thank the emperor for his care at this time, but she still couldn't help asking.

"Why doesn't the saint himself come?"

There was a bit of complaint in his tone.

Wu Wang: "Forgive me, the imperial concubine, there are so many things going on in the court today, and the saint can't be separated for a while."

Concubine Liu Gui twitched the corner of her mouth.

His son was about to starve to death, but he still had the mind to deal with political affairs.

how to say? Really worthy of being the king of a country.

Concubine Liu Gui said indifferently: "Please tell me that the Fifth Prince is already much better, and you don't need to worry too much about it."

Wu Wang: "The five princes are auspicious people with their own celestial features, so nothing will happen to them. I hope the imperial concubine can rest assured."

Hearing this, Concubine Liu Gui couldn't hold back after all, she curled her lips into a sneer and sneered.

"Ben Gong's sons are all like this, how can you make Ben Gong feel at ease?"

Wu Wang lowered his head: "It's the slave who said the wrong thing, the slave deserves to die."

Concubine Liu Gui didn't bother to argue with such an eunuch as him, snorted, and left without looking back.

Wu Wang raised his head, just in time to meet the eyes of the maid following behind Concubine Liu Gui.

Without anyone noticing, the two exchanged a look.

Back in Lingxue Palace, Concubine Liu Gui took off her luxurious clothes, leaned on the soft couch, frowning slightly, showing a deep tired look.

The maid put a cup of calming tea beside Concubine Liu Gui.

"Your Majesty, on the way Quan Fu went to the Imperial Hospital to get medicine, I happened to see King Zhao enter the palace.

Quan Fu inquired by the way, and heard that the sage had some errands to send to King Zhao, so he sent someone to summon King Zhao into the palace early in the morning. "

Concubine Liu Gui sneered: "The sage has time to see King Zhao, but he doesn't have time to see Yan'er in this palace. Is Yan'er not as good as King Zhao? Or is this palace not as good as that woman in Duke Zhen's mansion?"

The maid hurriedly persuaded: "You can't talk nonsense!"

Concubine Liu Gui pursed her red lips. After all, she suppressed the anger in her heart, closed her eyes and stopped talking.

The palace maid hesitated and said: "Actually, actually, this servant has heard some gossip recently..."

Concubine Liu Gui raised her eyelids and glanced at her, seeing that she was hesitant to speak, she couldn't help frowning.

"Speak directly if you have something to say, there are no outsiders here."

Maid: "Recently, I heard that many people in the palace are discussing in private that the fifth prince's injury may have something to do with King Zhao."

Concubine Liu Gui sat up straight: "How do you say that?"

The court lady was persuasive and seductive: "Think about it, King Zhao is the person in charge of rebuilding the Taimiao, as long as he serves snacks, he will not hurt the fifth prince.

Moreover, the fifth prince himself said that someone pushed him secretly, and his foot was hit by a stone.

That person might have been appointed by King Zhao.

With the identity and status of King Zhao, it is too easy to install a person among those civilian husbands. "

Concubine Liu Gui frowned and thought: "It's not like I haven't thought about what you said, but if it's like what you said, King Zhao would be too stupid."

To harm someone under one's nose, isn't that clearly adding to one's suspicion?

Even if Concubine Liu Gui didn't like King Zhao, she didn't think he could do such a stupid thing.

Maid: "Perhaps King Zhao expected that we would think so, that's why he dared to attack the fifth prince when he was building the Taimiao. This is probably the opposite of what everyone often says."

Concubine Liu Gui was thoughtful.

Among other things, this kind of contrary practice is really in line with King Zhao's style of doing things.

The palace maid lowered her head and raised her hand to touch her tears.

"The servants are just guessing. Although King Zhao is not easy to get along with, there is no need to murder His Highness the Fifth Highness.

Pity our Fifth Highness, such a tragic thing happened at such a young age, and I don't know what to do in the future? "

Concubine Liu Gui pursed her red lips tightly, her beautiful eyes were full of dark clouds.

Others don't know, but she knows very well that King Zhao is also the emperor's son, as long as the emperor is willing to recognize him back, he can also participate in the contest for the succession to the throne.

King Zhao is likely to secretly murder the fifth prince in order to fight for the throne.

As long as the fifth prince is eliminated, he will have one less competitor.

What's more, he didn't deal with the fifth prince. Seeing that the fifth prince was sent to him to be punished, how could he not think of a way to take revenge on the fifth prince?

Concubine Liu Gui slowly closed her fingers and clenched them into fists.

If Yan'er was really harmed by King Zhao, she must make King Zhao feel that life is worse than death!

It took her a long time to speak.

"Change clothes for Ben Gong, Ben Gong is going to see Concubine Liang."

"Here."

From entering the palace to now, Concubine Liang has never been in bed.

The emperor seemed to have forgotten that there was such a famous woman in the palace, and he never turned over her sign.

Even if she asked to see her, the emperor would find reasons to refuse to see her.

At first, Concubine Liang had a little fantasy, thinking that the emperor might give her some favor for the sake of diplomatic relations between the two countries.

However, with the passage of time, the hope in her heart gradually extinguished.

In the end, there was only despair like a pool of stagnant water.

In her eyes, the grand palace once symbolized the supreme power and status.

But now, the palace in her eyes has become a huge cage,

And she was the poor little bird imprisoned in it.

The people in the palace have always stepped on the highs and lows. Seeing that she is not favored, the concubines are unwilling to associate with her, and the maids and eunuchs do not like to talk to her. On weekdays, there is no one who is willing to talk to him.

Despair, resentment, anger, unwillingness, helplessness, loneliness and other emotions kept accumulating in her heart, crazily eating away at her nerves.

She started to hate.

Why did the hating uncle send her to be married? Why did the emperor who hates the Great Zhou accept her into the palace? Why did King Hate Zhao refuse to marry her?

What she hated the most was Princess Zhao who disfigured her.

If she was given a chance, she would definitely let Princess Zhao die without a place to bury her!

At this moment, Concubine Liu Gui appeared in front of her.

Concubine Liu Gui reached out and lifted Concubine Liang's chin, forcing her to reveal the scar on her forehead.

"Tsk tsk, once the pearl of the desert, I didn't expect it to be reduced to this appearance now, it's really pitiful."

Concubine Liang shook off her hand and said bitterly, "Are you also here to see my joke?"

Concubine Liu Gui smiled: "No, I am here to help you."

Concubine Liang looked at her warily.

"I don't need your hypocrisy."

Concubine Liu Gui approached her, her red lips parted slightly, and the words she uttered were like the whispers of a devil.

"Don't you want revenge?"

Happy Friday everyone~
