The empress is pregnant, and the emperor's incense continues

Just as he was about to speak, the string of Buddhist beads suddenly broke.

The imperial concubine screamed, grabbed Meng Wenyao's hand and said: "Why are you doing this? You humiliated Quan'er with your words. I don't care anymore. You even want to tear off the beads. You are determined not to let Quan'er." Did your son go away safely?"

Looking down at the few beads left in her hand and the broken silk thread, she clearly didn't use any force at all. How could the beads break?

Except when it was in the hands of the imperial concubine, it was about to break. It turned out that the imperial concubine planned to use this method to plot against her.

But so what, let alone breaking the beads, so what if she overturned the mourning hall.

She is a dignified concubine Chen, but she is no better than a dead person in the Wei family.

Looking up at the imperial concubine coolly, Meng Wenyao smiled slightly sarcastically, wanting to see how the imperial concubine would continue to act.

The imperial concubine was stunned, realizing that the other party was so calm and calm, and she quickly thought of countermeasures.

"Bold Concubine Chen, do you know your guilt?"

With a sneer, Meng Wenyao said lightly: "Where does the crime come from?"

"Back then, the emperor was seriously poisoned. The abbot of Fahua Temple helped him detoxify the poison. The emperor also lived in Fahua Temple for three months. This Buddhist bead was given by the abbot at that time to protect the emperor's safety and health. You actually did it yourself. Cut it off, do you want to do harm to the emperor?"

This Buddhist bead actually has such an origin? Looking at the beads scattered on the ground, Meng Wenyao thought that if this was true, wouldn't she be committing a crime of disrespect?

The imperial concubine is very resourceful, and she is very good at frame-up.

It's useless to explain anything now. She can only wait until the emperor comes. If the emperor is also angry about this, she can only wait for the child in her belly to make a comeback.

Rubbing the few remaining beads in his hand, he suddenly felt something was wrong. If the beads were old, they should be coated with pulp. The beads in his hand were clearly very new, and they didn't look like they were many years ago.

This was clearly the concubine who deliberately deceived her. If so many people weren't watching, Meng Wenyao would have wanted to clap her hands and praise the concubine for her wit.

"This is really a gift from the abbot of Fahua Temple. I heard that the beads given by the abbot of Fahua Temple are all made of Canaan wood. The beads on your concubine's string don't seem to be Canaan wood."

Meng Wenyao had no idea what the Buddhist beads hosted by Fahua Temple were made of. It was just a tit-for-tat trick to deceive the noble concubine.

He slowly raised his hand and showed the beads in his hand to the concubine. As expected, the concubine's expression changed.

All the concubines were fascinated by the play. The plot was really full of ups and downs, changing from moment to moment!

With so many people watching, the imperial concubine just now said in public that it was the host's thing. Now she could only slap herself in the face and said: "It turns out that I was in a hurry and took the wrong beads. The host's string of beads should be well preserved."

Everyone exchanged "you know" looks with each other. Meng Wenyao looked depressed. The cost of slandering people was too low. She was really unwilling to let her escape like this.

"The Emperor has arrived."

In a blink of an eye, the emperor strode to Meng Wenyao's side, stretched out his hand to wrap her little hand, found something in her hand, and asked, "What is this?"

"It's nothing, just a broken string of Buddhist beads." The imperial concubine hurriedly explained.

Because Wei Quan almost plotted against Meng Wenyao last time, but the imperial concubine managed to get it over with just a few words.

Meng Wenyao admired the imperial concubine's eloquence very much. Therefore, although the imperial concubine was plotting everything about today's events, Meng Wenyao felt in her heart that it would be difficult to make the imperial concubine stumble because of this.

However, seeing the imperial concubine rushing to explain, Meng Wenyao turned around and smiled. The more the enemy tried to cover up something, the more they uncovered something.

"Back to the Emperor, just now the imperial concubine asked my concubine to recite sutras and pray for Mr. Wei. Unexpectedly, the Buddhist beads suddenly broke. The imperial concubine said that it was given to the emperor by the abbot of Fahua Temple, which represents the peace and health of the emperor. When the concubine heard this, she was frightened. I almost fainted. Fortunately, Your Majesty, you are fine."

The emperor looked at the Buddhist beads in Meng Wenyao's hand, and then turned to look at the Jiaofang Hall, which was decorated like a Buddhist hall.

He snorted coldly and said, "I don't know when the Buddhist beads in my private treasury arrived at the imperial concubine's Jiaofang Palace."

The imperial concubine hurriedly knelt down and explained: "I have been sad recently. I lost my mind for a moment and said something wrong. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

You must observe the emperor's expression in time and learn to act based on the emperor's expression. This is the experience that the imperial concubine has accumulated over the years.

According to the past, the emperor would reprimand her, or fine her some salary or something, but after a few days, everything would go back to the beginning, and she would still be the master of the harem.

Seeing the imperial concubine's unrepentant look and even the vague provocation in her eyes, Meng Wenyao felt that she needed to add more firewood.

"Your Majesty, please don't be angry with your concubine. My sister is too sad after Mr. Wei passed away. Look at the Jiaofang Palace, the most luxurious palace in the palace, it looks like a mourning hall. You can see how uncomfortable my sister is now."

After saying this, Meng Wenyao lowered his head and said to the imperial concubine: "Sister, please express my condolences. Sister is not only the pillar of the Wei family, but also the anchor of our harem.

If my sister is too sad and makes a wrong string of beads today and a wrong piece of jewelry tomorrow, our palace will be in chaos. Sister, hold on! The palace cannot be managed without my sister! "

The imperial concubine was about to continue explaining, but the emperor kicked her hard and the imperial concubine almost turned over.

"Since the noble concubine wants to recite sutras, she should stay in the Jiaofang Palace and recite sutras. Let Concubine Chen take care of all the affairs in the harem. The concubine can just recite sutras in peace."

After the emperor finished speaking, he pulled Meng Wenyao away without listening to the imperial concubine's cries.

Meng Wenyao didn't feel relieved until she sat on the dragon chariot. She easily became the person in power in the harem.

Does the imperial concubine fall out of favor? Meng Wenyao was used to hearing rumors from outside, and she really couldn't be sure about the imperial concubine's position in the emperor's heart.

"Your Majesty, if you do this, will it chill the heart of the imperial concubine?"

The emperor rubbed his brows, patted Meng Wenyao's hand reassuringly and said, "I know everything that your concubine has done over the years. If it weren't for the usefulness of keeping her, she would have died a hundred times ago."

Meng Wenyao looked at the emperor, and it didn't look like he was speaking out of anger. Could it be that the emperor really didn't have the imperial concubine in his heart?

Just for the so-called usefulness? But for what purpose, she didn't have the guts to ask this topic yet.

"Your Majesty, it's a good thing you came just now. Otherwise, if I had broken the string of Buddhist beads, your concubine would not have let me go like this."

Meng Wenyao looked at the emperor with affection in her eyes.

The emperor's throat tightened. He ignored the maid and eunuch beside him and lowered his head to kiss her.

The changes in the palace quickly spread to Prince Anjun's palace.

The counselors began to discuss again.

"The imperial concubine has actually lost the right to take charge of the harem. Is she about to fall out of favor?"

"Fortunately, we did not listen to the noble concubine and involve the Meng family. Now, by sending Miss Meng to the palace, we can sell Concubine Chen a favor."
