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

Jiahe Palace

"boom"

The tray that the maid was carrying fell to the ground, and the palace servants immediately knelt down and admitted their mistakes.

"Your Highness, please calm down!" It was Concubine Jia.

Now she was still lying on the bed, with whip marks all over her back, and her face looked hideous and terrifying.

"If you can't even apply medicine, what's the point of me keeping you around? Do you all want to make me die of pain?!" Concubine Jia roared angrily. Her injuries have not fully healed since she was whipped as punishment last time.

"Your Majesty has such a cruel heart. No matter how much I have done him a favor. He actually got angry because I punished that bitch Yu Jinzhi! And now he is admiring the flowers in the Imperial Garden with others!" The more Concubine Jia spoke, the angrier she became. Her face was distorted because of the wound on her back.

The maidservant next to her could only bite the bullet and persuade her: "Your Majesty, please calm down. His Majesty may have just been impulsive. Previously, Yu Jinzhi bumped into Your Majesty, and Your Majesty wanted to punish her, but Your Majesty didn't say anything, did she?"

"Your Majesty, this time you did this, it can't be that you are protecting Princess Jiayu? Maybe it was because of the last time... Your Majesty, please forgive me for being so nosy, or maybe Your Majesty did something else that made Your Majesty unhappy?" said the palace maid.

"Last time, Your Majesty told Your Majesty that you did it for him, but Your Majesty hates this kind of talk the most because of his childhood experiences. Perhaps he felt unhappy after hearing this, so he was confused for a moment and punished Your Majesty? Your Majesty must care about Your Majesty in his heart, otherwise how could he have allowed Your Majesty to have her temper all these years?" the maid continued.

Concubine Jia frowned when she heard this. Although this reason was a bit far-fetched, she... really wanted to believe it.

His Majesty is such a proud person, he hates others' sympathy the most. I am afraid that what I said last time may have brought back some unpleasant memories in His Majesty's heart, which made him angry.

If he really had no feelings for me, how could he send all the concubines of the previous emperor to the imperial mausoleum but leave me alone? Also, how could His Majesty, who is so strict about rules, let her continue to regard herself as a concubine? His Majesty did not even correct the title of "This Palace".

Therefore, he must still treat her differently... She spoke for His Majesty when he was in the most embarrassing time, and he must still be grateful for her kindness.

As she thought about this, the depression in Concubine Jia's heart gradually dissipated. However...

"I don't know why Your Majesty has to keep that bitch Yu Jinzhi in the palace. She really an eyesore to me." Concubine Jia said again.

"She is just a nameless and unnamed wild girl. If Your Majesty really wanted her, how could he have allowed her to stay in the palace for so long without giving her a name? From what I can see, Your Majesty has no feelings for her."

"Otherwise, how could you allow her to be bullied in the harem? Moreover... I heard that last night, Princess Jiayu was about to elope with the deposed crown prince, but was caught by Your Majesty on the spot."

"Your Majesty not only ordered her legs to be broken, but also sent her directly to prison. I heard that when she was brought back, she was almost crazy. Without Your Majesty's order, who would dare to torture her like this? Therefore, I think the reason why Your Majesty kept her by his side was just to humiliate the deposed prince." The maid continued.

After hearing this, Concubine Jia felt much better. This was true. After all, everyone knew that Yu Jinzhi was the Crown Princess appointed by the previous emperor. The Crown Prince was deposed for conspiracy, but she was taken into the palace by Xie Yuxiu. What else could it be but to humiliate him?

"I heard that Yu Sheng asked to see Your Majesty today, saying that he wanted to meet Yu Jinzhi, but was rejected by Your Majesty?" asked Concubine Jia.

"That's true. His Majesty did not agree to General Yu's request and directly drove you out of the palace." The maid replied.

Concubine Jia sneered: "He has lost all the military power, so how can he be a general? He was a member of the Queen's party and was against me everywhere. Now, it's time for me to get him back!" There was a ruthless look in her eyes, and no one knew what she was thinking.

"Send someone immediately to tell my brother that I need his help with something important." Concubine Jia said.

Their family was originally just ordinary people, but because she was favored, the whole family rose to prominence. Even the brother who usually did nothing but get a position in the army.

"Yes" the maid quickly retreated.

As for Toffee Jia...

"Tomorrow morning, I will go to see His Majesty. Please apply medicine to me!" Concubine Jia had a vicious look in her eyes.

Yu Jinzhi...I won't let you go easily!

The next day

Golden Palace

Xie Yuxiu rubbed his brows tiredly. It was already time for the morning court session.

A courtier under "Your Majesty" stood up.

"Your Majesty, in recent days, we have received news that the Kingdom of Li is disturbing our border. Because of Princess Changling's marriage, we have always kept our distance from the Kingdom of Li and have always been in a good relationship with each other."

"Now that the late emperor has passed away, the Li Kingdom has launched repeated provocations, clearly not taking our Jing Kingdom seriously. Your Majesty, I think we should take precautions in advance! If the scoundrels like the Li Kingdom dare to invade again, we should take this opportunity to send troops and enhance the prestige of our Jing Kingdom!" said the man.

As soon as he said this, the court officials below began to discuss. Xie Yuxiu raised his eyes slightly, and then fell on him.

This man is the elder brother of Concubine Jia. He has always been idle. The late emperor favored his sister, so he was given a sinecure position in the army.

But unexpectedly, this usually unruly guy actually has some skills and has made a name for himself in the army. Now he leads his own soldiers.

Just in the last life...

Xie Yuxiu looked at him dimly: "What Yang Qing said makes some sense. How about you lead the troops to the border to defend it?"

"Your Majesty trusts me, and I will be loyal to you. However... Your Majesty, I am still young and have little experience in leading troops to fight. I dare to ask Your Majesty to let General Yu Sheng accompany me. In this way, I will feel more at ease." Yang Cheng said.

really……

Xie Yuxiu was not surprised by his proposal. It was the same in his previous life, and there was really no change in this life.

"Approved." Xie Yuxiu said it quickly and decisively. While everyone was still waiting for me to react, he approved the order.

Yang Cheng was stunned. He thought it would take some effort today, but it was so easy? His Majesty agreed just like that? He didn't even have the chance to say what he had prepared...

Xie Yuxiu didn't have the time to waste with him, so he issued an order on the spot, reinstating Yu Sheng to his post and officially heading to the border three days later.
