Chapter 461: Concubine Shu and Imperial Master
As night falls and the moonlight shines brightly, every palace in the imperial palace appears more solemn and mysterious under the touch of the moon.
This is a place that carries countless emperors' dreams and intrigues. Whenever night falls, it quietly tells the story of its past glory and vicissitudes in a unique manner.
The moonlight was like a silver thread, penetrating the clouds and shining mottledly on the glazed tiles on the roof of the imperial palace. Each tile seemed to be endowed with life, sparkling with a soft and cool luster.
The flying eaves and corners of the temple roof swayed gently in the night wind, like the wings of a giant beast, wanting to fly high, but being pulled by an invisible force, guarding this ancient land.
In a hall, the flickering candlelight illuminates the magnificent interior, adding a touch of warmth and serenity.
Exquisite patterns are carved on the tall beams and pillars. They appear and disappear in the dim candlelight, as if whispering ancient legends.
In front of the dressing table in the hall, a noble woman was combing her hair, while a middle-aged man with white hair was hugging her behind her.
The woman was none other than Concubine Shu Luo Shi, and the man was Tianjizi, the imperial teacher of Tiansheng.
"Why don't we wait a little longer?" Concubine Shu said slowly.
Tianjizi reached out and picked up a curl of Concubine Shu's hair and played with it: "Shi'er, we have everything ready now. We only lack the east wind. There is no need to wait any longer."
"The Canglang army has also arrived at the designated location."
"We have been enduring in silence for so many years in Tiansheng. It's time to vent our anger."
"In a few days, this entire Tiansheng will belong to our son. By then, you will be the honorable Empress Dowager, and I will be the Emperor Emeritus."
"I hope the Empress Dowager is well..." Tianjizi asked flatteringly.
Hearing this, Concubine Shu's mouth curled up slightly: "May the Emperor be well...!"
Tianjizi: "The Queen Mother is well...!"
Concubine Shu: "I hope the Emperor is well...!"
“Hehehe…!” Concubine Shu covered her mouth and couldn’t stop laughing.
When she thought that all the people of Tiansheng would submit to her in a few days, Concubine Shu felt happy.
"…………"
Qianqing Palace.
Ye Xu was still reviewing memorials with his head down, while Eunuch Gao was serving him.
“Cough… cough cough…!” Ye Xu coughed a few times.
Eunuch Gao, who heard the voice, immediately brought a cloak and said, "Your Majesty, it's cold at night, put it on."
Ye Xu reached out and pulled his cloak, then continued to review memorials with his head down.
Looking at the emperor who was fighting so hard, Eunuch Gao sighed:
"Your Majesty, you have just gotten better. Princess Rong said that you need to rest more and not overwork yourself."
Ye Xu raised his eyes to see the time outside: "It is indeed time to rest."
"Which lady does Your Majesty want to visit today?" asked Eunuch Gao.
Then a young eunuch brought a square plate with some signs on it.
Ye Xu waved his hand.
Seeing this, the young eunuch retreated with the plate.
"How is the Queen lately?" Ye Xu asked.
"Since the Second Prince was demoted, the Queen has not left the palace for a long time." Eunuch Gao replied.
Ye Xu stood up and said, "Then I will go to Weiyang Palace to see the Queen today!"
Eunuch Gao: "Yes, Your Majesty."
"…………"
This side of Weiyang Palace.
The queen sat alone in front of the window of her bedroom, looking outside with a sad look on her face.
Her figure looked particularly lonely in the candlelight, her long skirt dragging on the ground like a withered peony. Her former glory and honor had now turned into endless loneliness and sorrow.
She gently stroked the window frame, and the coolness from her fingertips seemed to penetrate her heart, making her feel a slight chill.
The moonlight outside the window shone on her face, reflecting her furrowed brows and her deep eyes.
Her eyes were filled with complex emotions, including nostalgia for the past, helplessness about the current situation, and confusion about the future.
When Rong Mama pushed the door open and saw this scene, she felt extremely upset.
"My lady, it's late at night, it's time to settle down."
The Queen sighed deeply: "Madame Rong, I can't sleep. As long as I close my eyes, I will see Ming'er suffering outside."
Rong Mama said, "Madam, the prince is unwilling to accept the silver you gave him. He must have his own ideas."
"Yes, Ming'er has grown up and has his own ideas, but I am still worried." The night breeze blew gently, bringing a hint of floral fragrance. The queen closed her eyes and took a deep breath, trying to let the tranquility and beauty occupy her heart temporarily.
However, when she opened her eyes again, the loneliness and sadness returned to her face.
"Madame Rong, tell me, should I have listened to my brother and not entered the palace as a concubine?"
"Finding an ordinary husband outside and living an ordinary life, isn't that a kind of happiness!"
Looking at the extremely melancholy queen, Rong Mama felt very distressed: "Your Majesty...! Please don't be like this! Your health is more important."
Looking at the quiet Weiyang Palace, the Queen seemed to remember her former self, the carefree and free girl.
I remember that at that time, she could laugh as much as she wanted and pursue her dreams boldly.
However, everything changed for her from the moment she stepped into the palace.
She slowly lost her freedom, her happiness, and even herself.
Waiting for the same man with other women every day!
The queen sighed softly, turning the sorrow in her heart into a long sigh.
If I could go back in time and do it all over again, I would never set foot here again.
"The Emperor has arrived...!" the eunuchs' loud shouts were heard outside the palace.
"Your Majesty, the Emperor is here...!" Aunt Rong hurriedly helped the Queen up.
After a while, Ye Xu, dressed in bright yellow, walked in.
The Queen bowed slightly and said, "Your Majesty, long live the emperor!"
Ye Xu raised his hand: "Queen, there is no need to be polite, please stand up!"
Queen: "Thank you, Your Majesty...!"
Madam Rong bowed to Eunuch Gao and then left.
Two people were left in the hall.
"I heard that you haven't been out recently, so I came to see you." Ye Xu walked aside and sat down.
The queen also walked to the opposite side of Ye Xu, sat down, and smiled slightly: "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I am fine."
"Your Majesty, you should take better care of your health."
The two fell silent.
Seeing the queen, who used to be arrogant and domineering, become so quiet, Ye Xu felt a little uncomfortable.
Could it be that the incident with the second child was too much of a blow to her?
Is she blaming herself?
"Ah~ Queen, I have already given the most lenient treatment to the second son."
"You have to know that forcing him to abdicate is enough to make him die to atone for his crime."
"I just demoted him to a commoner!"
The queen nodded and said, "Your Majesty, I understand. Thank you very much, Your Majesty."
"Your Majesty...! Please depose the queen!"
