The Queen Mother jumped from the tower, and His Majesty was reborn with fear

Concubine Jia has been in a good mood these days. Although she has been under house arrest, it does not affect her good mood.

"Your Highness, I heard that His Majesty has promoted a new Concubine Zhaorong." The palace maid next to her said as she gave the Dowager Concubine Jia a massage.

When Concubine Jia heard this, she didn't take it seriously: "They are just mediocre women, how can they compare with me?"

"Yes, yes, the Queen is different in His Majesty's heart." The palace maid next to her also knew how to flatter.

Concubine Jia was also happy to hear this: "She is just a concubine's daughter. I don't know how lucky she was to get this position this time. But a woman without family support can't go far."

"That's right. I've heard that if General Yang can win military merit this time, his future will be limitless."

Concubine Jia was very proud: "After the death of old man Yu Sheng, who else in the court can match the military power of our Yang family?" She really didn't shy away from it at all.

"Has the news of Yu Sheng's death spread? Why haven't I heard any news at all?" Concubine Jia became confused as she spoke.

Logically speaking, Yu Jinzhi should have received the news long ago, but now she has no reaction at all. This is too abnormal.

"I'm afraid that His Majesty has specifically suppressed the news before it gets out. There were some rumors today, but they were about disappearance, not death." The maid continued.

When Concubine Jia heard this, she sneered.

"Your Majesty is really scheming and dares not speak out? I really don't know what your Majesty likes about Yu Jinzhi?" The more Concubine Jia spoke, the more contempt on her face became.

How can I match someone like Yu Jinzhi?

"It's just the novelty. The more you can't get it, the more you want it. Your Majesty, as the emperor, should naturally enjoy the submission of everyone, and that princess has always been aloof and arrogant, which inevitably makes Your Majesty want to conquer her. But if Your Majesty really cares about her, you wouldn't treat her like this." The palace maid also catered to her and continued.

That's true, Yu Jinzhi's methods are really high. But he is an emperor after all, how could he lose face for a little girl?

Look, she has been in the palace for so long but still has no status? Moreover, she has been pointed at and bullied by others. How could His Majesty really care?

"I'm really curious about what her expression would be like if she knew that her only father was dead. It will definitely be exciting then." The smile on Concubine Jia's face became more and more obvious, as if she couldn't wait any longer.

only……

"Your Majesty, I hope His Majesty will not trace this matter back to you?" The palace maid beside her began to worry.

"Just find out what you want to find out. What are you afraid of? His Majesty treats me differently. What's more, I have my brother's military power behind me. His Majesty may have to rely on my brother in the future." Concubine Jia became more and more proud as she spoke, as if she had everything under control.

"Is the man from the Yu family really dead? After all, we just saw him fall into the river, but we didn't find his body." The palace maid asked again.

"He is so old, injured, and fell into a turbulent river. The water is so cold. Is there any chance of him surviving?" Concubine Jia said with disdain.

If such a person falls down, he will definitely die. There is no chance of survival.

"Where is Yu Jinzhi now?" Concubine Jia asked again.

"I heard that he was under house arrest by His Majesty." The maid replied.

"She is really troublesome. How many times has this happened? Your Majesty didn't punish her this time?" Concubine Jia did not hide her desire to see your thoughts at all.

In the past, everyone in the palace knew that whenever Yu Jinzhi received such a punishment, she would summon the imperial physician. Although they didn't know what happened in detail, since they had already summoned the imperial physician, she must have been severely punished.

His Majesty was giving enough face by not letting outsiders know. But it was also because of this that many people speculated about it. Most people were guessing that Xie Yuxiu had used some secret torture method on Yu Jinzhi, which caused her to suffer so much pain without causing any obvious wounds.

Otherwise, why would we have to call the imperial physician every time?

"His Majesty left very quickly this time and did not request to summon the imperial physician afterwards," the palace maid replied.

When Concubine Jia heard this, she was not satisfied. Could it be just a house arrest? That would be too easy for her, right?

However, before Concubine Jia could say anything, a palace maid came in.

"Your Majesty, Su Zhaorong requests to see you." said the palace maid.

Su Zhaorong? I just mentioned her, and now she's here?

"Let her in." Concubine Jia also immediately put on airs.

When Su Zhaorong came in, Concubine Jia was sitting in the main seat, looking down at her with a look of extreme contempt.

"Your concubine greets the Queen Mother." Su Zhaorong remained as humble as ever and bowed the first thing she did after coming in.

Concubine Jia did not let anyone stand up and just looked at her: "You are Su Zhaorong? You are really capable. You have climbed to this position in such a short time."

How could Su Zhaorong not see that she was deliberately trying to embarrass her? But what could she do? She could only endure it.

"Your Majesty is so kind to me that I am overwhelmed." Su Zhaorong said.

Concubine Jia still didn't let anyone get up, and she even became more aggressive.

"Don't you have to kneel when you see me? When the late emperor was in power, I was at least a concubine." Concubine Jia was making fun of this on purpose.

She has never taken the palace rules seriously, and even claims that she is unwilling to change them.

But Su Zhaorong was very cooperative.

"It's my fault." After saying that, she knelt down directly.

Concubine Jia's complexion barely improved.

"Tell me, what are you here for today?" Concubine Jia asked proactively.

Su Zhaorong kowtowed respectfully and said, "I want to come and seek refuge with Your Majesty." She did not hide anything at all.

Concubine Jia became more interested when she heard this. She looked at the person kneeling in front of her and said, "I don't understand what you are saying."

"Your Majesty, I am just a concubine's daughter in the family, and I have no one to rely on in this palace. I am lucky to have got this position, and it is inevitable that I will be hated by others. So I want to seek refuge with Your Majesty and hope that You will protect me. I am also willing to serve You." Su Zhaorong said everything she wanted to say in one breath.

Concubine Jia didn't answer right away, which was really interesting. She waved to the people below and said, "Kneel closer."
