Empress' Marshal's Concubine

"In this harem, besides me kneeling, who else can accept your kneeling?" Wu Zetian seemed puzzled and curious.

An unexpected thing happened, Wu Zetian stood up from the chair and walked in front of Ye Qingruo...

A hand appeared in front of Ye Qingruo who was looking down at the ground, Ye Qingruo was startled.

She looked up in astonishment, and saw Wu Zetian's devilish and delicate face, without any expression, but in her eyes were tenderness that could not be melted away, and love that could drown people.

Ye Qingruo, who was originally thinking about Wu Zetian's words with her head down, looked at Wu Zetian's hand stretched out in front of her eyes in a daze, not knowing how she should react.

Just like that, he looked at Wu Zetian's hand that didn't withdraw because of her daze.

The main hall of Green Bamboo Garden was deadly silent, one could clearly hear the drop of a needle.

It was Wang Xi who was the first to react, bowed his body, bent over, and came beside Ye Qingruo, and whispered, "Ningfei, but after kneeling for a long time, your body is numb?"

Only then did Ye Qingruo come to her senses, sniffed, opened her eyes wide, and placed her hand in Wu Zetian's hand that was reaching out to her.

Wu Zetian slightly exerted force to pull Ye Qingruo up from the ground, but Ye Qingruo staggered a few steps and did not stand still. Instead, she lost her center of gravity and fell on Wu Zetian. Wu Zetian was shorter than Ye Qingruo At one end, Ye Qingruo actually bumped into Wu Zetian, and the people in the main hall couldn't help covering their mouths. Some were worried that Wu Zetian would be knocked down by Ye Qingruo and severely punished. Wu Zetian was knocked down by Ye Qingruo, and was affected by Wu Zetian's anger...

Either way, they were obviously disappointed.

Because Wu Zetian didn't fall down because of Ye Qingruo's collision, but just stepped back a little bit, and then firmly supported Ye Qingruo to stand up.

"Why are you so careless? Your body is weak, so you can keep it alive. You are the master. Kneeling here, others will think that I am very harsh on the concubines in the harem when they see it!" Wu Zetian pinched Ye Ye from an invisible angle. Qingruo's hands, Ye Qingruo's hands were very cold, without any warmth, if it wasn't for the warmth in the palms, Wu Zetian would have thought that Ye Qingruo was already a dead person.

"Your Majesty, Qing Ruo has been wronged. Please Your Majesty and Concubine Shu make the decision for Qing Ruo." As Ye Qingruo said, her legs bent, and she was about to kneel down again.

Wu Zetian looked at her little face full of astonishment and enduring grievances, and stretched out his hand to wrap her in his arms. It was an extremely strange hug.

Being hugged by someone who is a head shorter than oneself, probably no one would feel natural, right?

But Ye Qingruo didn't think there was anything strange, mainly because Wu Zetian did it too naturally.

"Sit down!" Wu Zetian seemed to put his arms around Ye Qingruo's waist casually, but in fact, he was very careful to protect Ye Qingruo's body, so that Ye Qingruo would not be unsteady like before. staggering.

Although Wu Zetian said so, the concubines in the palace still waited until Wu Zetian himself took the main seat before sitting down according to their respective positions.

If Ye Qing wanted to break free from Wu Zetian's embrace, she went to sit down in her own seat, but Wu Zetian held her back.

"It's okay. You are weak and can't blow the wind, so sit next to me!" Wu Zetian asked Ye Qingruo to sit on the main seat with him, and all the concubines below watched, wanting to see the always virtuous concubine Shu , Will she still be generous and gentle this time?

Concubine Shu Di Lewu didn't look unusual, her face was still soft as usual, she was sitting on Wu Zetian's side seat, which was originally Ye Qingruo's seat.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Ning and Concubine Chen just said that someone in her palace poisoned her. Concubine Chen was thinking that someone would go and check carefully. Your Majesty, you are here." Concubine Shu just sat down, Hearing what Ye Qingruo said, she quickly stood up.

"I hope Your Majesty will forgive me. It is because the concubines are not strict in managing the harem that the wicked have an opportunity." Concubine Shu paused slightly.

"Concubine Shu sit down and talk! You don't need to be too polite." Wu Zetian's voice was so soft that it was impossible to distinguish her thoughts and thoughts.

oh?Talk to Concubine Shu?What is she thinking?What do you want to do?

Didn't it say before that someone would come forward to track it down?

Now you take the initiative to ask someone to check?

What's in her little head?

"Your Majesty, Qingruo has been wronged." Ye Qingruo was about to stand up as she said that, with the momentum of continuing to kneel down.

Wu Zetian looked amusedly at Ye Qingruo, who was putting on an air in front of others, for fear of losing the same courtesy.

Maybe this girl is up to something.

This is probably the first step for this girl in this palace, and I really want to see how she will take this step.

I don't mind being her backing, but I won't intervene to help.

It's been years since I've seen a harem battle with my own eyes.

Now that the four concubines in the harem are complete, the person in charge of the palace before was Concubine Shu Di Lewu, but there are many people who want to compete for the top position, and those who can really be equal to Concubine Shu, always want to compete for the seal of the phoenix, and move Concubine Shu down There is only one, and that is the virtuous concubine Gu Yue'er.

The same is the concubine, the existence of the concubine An Ran is as airy as it is, basically there is no sense of existence.

Except for greetings on the first and fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year, on weekdays, she doesn't leave the gate, lives in seclusion, and paints and practices calligraphy in her own Fenglu Pavilion.

The other concubines and other men and women who were sent to serve in the palace, no matter how much they fought on weekdays, they would not endanger the concubine.

So no matter how fierce the fight is, Concubine Shu has the means to make things look calm in her eyes.

"Concubine Ning, just sit down and answer. There is no need to be too polite." Wu Zetian took the tea from Wang Xi, spread the tea, and a cold smile appeared on his lips.

It is not a great skill to be able to guess the master's mind, the real skill is to guess the master's mind, but still keep the master from knowing.

This Wang Xi is very protective of Concubine Ning!

I knew that if I hadn't taken the teacup and drank the tea, I was afraid that I would have to ask a few questions. If I asked too much, Ye Qing would inevitably kneel down to answer, and my knee was injured for two consecutive days. If I knelt down, I am afraid that my knee will hurt more and more powerful.

There are many people in the audience who tell me that Concubine Shu is a concubine who talks like a snake, but it is precisely because Concubine Shu is the person I put in the harem, so Concubine Shu is virtuous and virtuous on the surface, and she handles things viciously, so she is more suitable for the position of Concubine Shu superior.

It is precisely because of her ruthless methods that the harem has allowed her to rest easy in the past three years.

"Concubine Ning, please speak slowly." Wu Zetian lowered his head and sipped the tea in his hand.

"Your Majesty, all matters in the harem are concubines..." Concubine Shu Di Lewu saw that Wu Zetian wanted to intervene in person, so she quickly stood up and saluted again.

Since His Majesty ascended the throne for three years, he has never personally asked about matters in the harem.

Why is this today?

"Huh? Concubine Shu..." Wu Zetian raised his eyebrows, his eyes did not look in the direction of Concubine Shu, his voice sank, the teacup in his hand was gently placed on the side table, and his face became a little gloomy.

"Your Majesty, it was the concubine who was rude..." Concubine Shu saw Wu Zetian's expression changed, and knelt down.

"Your Majesty, please don't blame Sister Concubine Shu. Sister Concubine Shu is also worried that Qing Ruo's time in the palace will not be long, that Qing Ruo is not polite enough and will offend Long Wei." Ye Qingruo got up slowly, but finally knelt down.

When Ye Qingruo knelt down, Wang Xi clearly saw the snow-white dress, where blood stains were clearly printed on Ye Qingruo's knees.

Wang Xi was startled, this Concubine Ning's knee was seriously injured!

It turned out that the injury was really so serious, and he still refused to apply medicine to bandage it. I'm afraid it will be unavoidable to stage a bitter trick today!

There have never been many people who staged bitter tricks in this harem, but there have never been people who can really arouse His Majesty's pity.

Today, it depends on how much Your Majesty loves Concubine Ning, and how touching Concubine Ning's performance is.

Wu Zetian looked at Ye Qingruo who was kneeling sideways, and then turned her gaze back to Concubine Shu Di Lewu who was kneeling in front of her.

"Concubine Ning is so sensible, gentle and kind! It's true that I love you so much!" Wu Zetian squinted at Ye Qingruo who was kneeling next to her.

The kneeling posture is very correct. It seems that the national teacher has taught her when and what to do in the past 33 days, but she kneels too often, and every kneeling is real. Look at her Kneeling posture is so violent, I know that when she first came to the palace, she didn't know how to kneel and worship, she had to kneel slowly, and her calves were struggling, not her knees.

"Since Concubine Ning is so knowledgeable and reasonable, let's answer on her knees!" Wu Zetian was slightly angry.This woman likes to kneel at every turn, who taught this.Since she wants to kneel, let her kneel enough today to see if she dares to kneel at will in the future.

Ye Qingruo rolled her eyes in her heart, she didn't even think about standing up, okay?

It is said that the heart of a woman is the most poisonous, and this woman is indeed the most vicious.

Knowing that his knee was hurt, he asked himself to kneel and answer.

"Returning to Your Majesty, Director Wang found a ladle of corrosive powder in Qingruo Palace yesterday. Qingruo has not been in the palace for many days, so she doesn't understand what's going on here, let alone find out who did it. I heard from Madam An that Concubine Shu is in charge of the house in this palace, and I heard that Concubine Shu is gentle and virtuous, and she is very considerate to the sisters in the palace, so I want to ask Concubine Shu to protect her..." Ye Qingruo Biting his lip and lowering his head, his hands were clenched tightly, his body trembling slightly.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Ning's sister has praised her absurdly. The concubine is just doing her duty, and the six palaces are in harmony..." Concubine Shu heard Ye Qingruo boasting herself in front of Wu Zetian, and she quickly said softly.

"Concubine Shu, since Concubine Ning wants you to seek protection, don't be too humble. I also want to see with my own eyes how Concubine Shu handles the harem case." broken.

Wu Zetian had already heard too much flattery, hypocrisy and humility.

Even if Concubine Shu didn't finish her sentence, she still knew what Concubine Shu was going to say, she was self-effacing as usual.
