After being a widow for half my life, I found out that my husband was not dead.

Not long after, the good concubine was brought.

She was dressed in plain clothes, covered with blood. She fell to the ground helplessly, and you could clearly see the two bloody holes on her neck where the snake had bitten her. Her face was pale and her consciousness seemed a little unclear, as if she had only one breath left.

She opened her eyes with difficulty, saw the emperor, and curved her mouth: "Your Majesty... Just be fine... I strangled the snake... to death... Jing'e will not let that beast... hurt you..."

The emperor thought of the dream he had that night, in which he was wrapped around the white snake's neck and was unable to break free. He kept shouting for help but no one came to save him. He felt helpless and scared at that time. He even woke up from his dream, covered in sweat, but especially with a chill down his spine, so he asked the palace officials to look for the white snake inside and outside Chengtian Palace.

They both had the same dream. In the dream, Liang Fei saved him, but it was more than a dream. It was his disaster. Liang Fei blocked it for him and was bitten by the white snake.

Then he remembered that Liang Fei had been by his side since he was still a prince. She had always been silent, neither fighting nor fighting, but she was the most sincere to him. When the weather is cold, she makes cotton-padded clothes for him with her own hands; when the weather is hot, she makes him summer-relieving soup. He didn't go to her palace, and she never complained about him.

And with so many women around him, who would stand in his way in times of crisis, probably only a good concubine.

"Your Majesty... I'm afraid Jing'e may not be able to survive... Please take care of yourself..." Liang Fei said weakly.

Seeing this, the emperor hurriedly leaned over and picked up the good concubine, "Quickly call the imperial doctor to diagnose and treat the good concubine!"

The good concubine was carried to the inner palace by the emperor, and soon Zhou Lihuai arrived.

This white snake was not poisonous. Liang Fei was just too weak and had lost a lot of blood. After Zhou Lihuai's treatment, she was able to turn the corner.

In the inner hall, although the good concubine was extremely weak, she still told the emperor bit by bit what happened that day.

"I regarded her as my own sister and never doubted her, so I was really confused at the time and didn't know how to defend myself. Later in the cold palace, I thought about it carefully and finally figured it out."

Jin You was in the room, and immediately threw herself on the ground, crying: "Sister, I treat you sincerely, why are you slandering me!"

"Ahem...you..." Liang Fei was extremely angry, "You are still making excuses. You really don't have any intention of repenting!"

"Your Majesty, please don't listen to your sister. She must be talking nonsense because she is not clear-headed!"

Liu Yunxiang breathed out softly, stepped forward and knelt down and said, "This slave can testify that after the good concubine squatted down that day, the little golden concubine also squatted down, and the Tang Pozi was in her hands!"

"You bitch, you have no right to speak!" Jin You became anxious and shouted at Liu Yunxiang.

Liu Yunxiang ignored her and continued: "After Concubine Liang got up, she gave it to Concubine Liang. This is what I saw with my own eyes."

"Your Majesty, this cheap maid falsely accused my concubine!"

"What a frame-up. It's clear that you were afraid that Concubine Hui would give birth to a little prince and take away your son's favor, so you used a trick to harm her. But someone has to take the blame, so you ignored your relationship with the good concubine and caused this trouble to her. Her!" The queen was afraid that Jin You would make the evil out again, so she quickly convicted her, "You are guilty of murdering the emperor's heir."

Jin You clenched her fists and turned to look at the people present. She couldn't help but feel chilled. The person who could help her was not present today.

The emperor felt upset after hearing so much.

"Jin You, let me ask you, is it really you?"

"Concubine..."

"It is a capital crime to deceive the emperor!"

This time, Jin You really realized what it means to have a mountain of iron-clad evidence, and his back couldn't help but soften, and he cried: "Your Majesty, I am... I accidentally knocked over Mrs. Tang, and I had no intention of harming my concubine!"

As soon as these words came out, there was a gasp in the room.

They could see how good the relationship between Concubine Liang and Concubine Jin was, but they didn't expect Jin You to be so cruel, so cruel that it would send chills down one's spine.

"Oh, who would believe this!" the queen sneered coldly.

"With such careful arrangements, how could it be accidental?" Concubine Liang gritted her teeth, tears streaming down her face: "It's a shame that I treat you sincerely, but you plotted against me and insisted on putting me to death!"

Little Concubine Jin didn't care what others said, she just looked at the Emperor: "Your Majesty, Jin You was confused for a moment and is willing to accept the punishment. Please have mercy!"

"Concubine, why are you crying?" The Ninth Prince ran over at this time, hugged Jin You, and wiped her tears.

"Xiao Jiu, please quickly beg your father to forgive my mother and concubine." Jin You seemed to be holding on to a life-saving straw and hurriedly urged his son.

The Ninth Prince didn't know why, but after being urged by his mother and concubine, he still looked at the emperor: "Father, please don't make your mother and concubine cry. Xiao Jiu feels very uncomfortable."

The emperor looked at the Ninth Prince, then at Jin You, and began to weigh things in his heart. At this time, he saw Liu Yunxiang again, and it happened that this anger had nowhere to vent.

"The good concubine suffered such a serious crime all because of this servant who can't explain it. She deserves a heavy punishment!"

"Your Majesty, she helped my concubine..."

"Okay, you can have a good rest and forget about this."

The emperor blocked Liang Fei's mouth and then said: "Just hit her with fifty big sticks!"

After saying that, he looked at the Queen Mother and said, "Mother, if it weren't for the fact that she belongs to your palace, she would have been beaten to death."

The Queen Mother wanted to plead for mercy, but these words blocked her tightly.

Liu Yunxiang knew that he had stolen the limelight and would definitely be held accountable, but at the fifty-big board, would he still be alive if he continued to fight?

"I have been listening to this outside for a long time. I feel that this palace maid is very courageous, so I will ask for a favor for her." At this time, the door curtain opened, and she was wearing a plain palace dress, without any accessories, but she was full of nobility. , a woman as beautiful as a fairy walked in.

She has a great temperament and is the kind of woman who doesn't shock you at first glance, but makes you feel comfortable when you look at her again.

Seeing her coming, the emperor went to meet her and held her hand in front of all the concubines.

"Why are you here?"

"I originally wanted to come to pay my respects to the Queen Mother. Usually I like to be lazy, so I always come later."

The Queen Mother smiled, "It's obvious that you don't like to join in the fun."

The woman also smiled, "You know me best."

Liu Yunxiang looked at the woman and saw her looking back at her, her eyes gentle and kind.

"This palace maid is still young, so it is inevitable that she will be inconsiderate. Your Majesty, please spare her."

The emperor thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll hit twenty boards, no more."

The woman smiled and said, "Okay, then I will thank the Emperor for this little maid."

The Queen Mother said to Liu Yunxiang: "Princess Shuochang pleads for you, why don't you thank me quickly?"

Is this the eldest princess Heshuo?

Liu Yunxiang hurriedly kowtowed and thanked her. Princess Heshuo sighed slightly: "You still have to suffer some physical pain."

All that was left was how to punish the little golden concubine. The ninth prince kept hugging his mother-concubine, and he probably realized something and started to cry softly.

Princess Heshuo sighed, "Without my mother-in-law, the Ninth Prince will be pitiful. So be it. I have the guts to beg for mercy for this little golden concubine. Your Majesty, please spare her life."

The emperor was silent for a moment and said: "Then let's play fifty big shots to improve our memory and stop being so careless in the future."

Fifty big bans, the punishment is not light, but not heavy either. The emperor is obviously protecting Jin You.

Outside the courtyard, both of them were put on wooden benches, and they looked at each other.

The board clattered, and Liu Yunxiang finished playing twenty boards quickly. She looked at Jin You with a smile, looking at her pained expression, and seeing her unwilling to be humiliated and angry.

"Jin You, we have to settle the score slowly, and this time, I won!"
