Reborn as the crippled king's favorite

Although their troupe is now very famous and can perform in the palace, a few years ago, their troupe could only make a living.

Earlier, when the old troupe leader and his wife had an accident, they were just children and were adopted by the old troupe leader. At that time, the troupe was almost disbanded and Mei Yuzong was in a state of collapse.

If they hadn't been unable to live without the troupe, Mei Yuzong might have dismissed them long ago.

But the most difficult days have passed for them.

"Master, why do you seem unhappy?"

Mei Yuzong raised his head and smiled at them: "Sing a few more times and then we will leave the palace."

"It doesn't matter, I always feel on tenterhooks in the palace, and it doesn't matter if I leave the palace."

The next day, Concubine Jing indeed sent someone to invite a troupe to perform in her palace.

"Don't you like Concubine Jing to listen to plays? Why did you call the theater troupe again?"

All the women in the harem had to show respect to Concubine Jing and come together to listen to the show.

Before Concubine Jing came out, several women were whispering.

"Yesterday, the third prince's dragon boat won the first place. His Majesty was very happy, and Concubine Jing was also happy. Naturally, there was a lot of excitement."

At this time, Concubine Qi walked in and sneered: "Isn't Concubine Jing's heart palpitating when she hears the play? Is it because Hua Tuo came to our palace and cured Concubine Jing's heart disease?"

Others dare not accept this.

Concubine Yun also arrived and said with a smile: "We women in the palace don't have much to do for fun. Listening to the opera makes everyone lively. Concubine Jing must be worried that yesterday she ruined everyone's fun and arranged another one for everyone. It’s a play.”

That's right, that's what Concubine Jing and the Emperor said.

The emperor is in a good mood, and the third prince behaved very well yesterday. If there are a few more opportunities like this, when the third prince's prestige among the people is high, and he proposes to make the third prince a prince again, not many ministers will stop him.

Whether the women in the harem listen to the drama or not is a trivial matter. As long as Concubine Jing is not feeling uncomfortable, the emperor doesn't bother to care.

Besides, what's wrong with just watching a show and having fun watching the women in the harem?

The emperor didn't know that Concubine Jing had the idea of ​​cuckolding him.

"Sister Concubine Yun is still considerate and knows what I am thinking. How come Sister Concubine Qi seems to have been fed by gunpowder, but she had a conflict with Princess Ling yesterday?"

Concubine Jing walked out slowly. She was actually wearing water-pink clothes today, and her complexion was good. She looked several years younger, with a smile on her face and a proud look on her face.

All the girls thought that Concubine Jing was happy because of the third prince's affairs, but Concubine Qi had already seen the difference between Concubine Jing and Master Mei, and had already made a guess in her mind. She estimated that Concubine Jing's outfit was for her old lover. .

Concubine Qi was so angry that she felt angry, but in her heart she just wanted to watch the fun. Murong Jiu said yesterday that the matter would be over soon, but she wanted to see what her sons Jun Yuyan and Murong Jiu would do.

So she just kept a cold face and stayed the whole time, looking like she just wanted to watch the show in peace.

What she was watching was not the play on the stage, but Concubine Jing's play.

Concubine Jing only sat under the stage for half an hour before she got up and went back to the palace. The other women didn't think anything was wrong. They just thought Concubine Jing didn't like to watch the show.

Concubine Qi sneered in her heart. Master Mei was also missing. Wasn't he just having a tryst with Concubine Jing?

Concubine Jing is really courageous. She actually does something disgraceful in front of so many people. She is afraid that she will use these women as a shield.

Concubine Qi actually had the idea at this moment to secretly send someone to invite the emperor to catch them. She hates Concubine Jing. She really looks down on Concubine Jing. She despises Concubine Jing from the bottom of her heart. It's not that she is a country bumpkin, but that she is willing to dress up like the Queen Mother in front of the Emperor despite knowing that she is the Queen Mother's substitute. This kind of behavior is really disgusting. .

Almost everyone thinks that Concubine Jing is the future successor and the third prince is the crown prince, so Concubine Jing is no longer as pretentious as before and is becoming more and more arrogant. When she was still Concubine Jing, she only dared to call her the Concubine. Later, After she was promoted to the imperial concubine, she was first called Sister Concubine Qi, and recently she switched to being called Concubine Qi Sister, which is really disgusting.

But the thought of exposing them was fleeting because she thought of what Murong Jiu said yesterday.

Murong Jiu and Jun Yuyan had plans long ago. Concubine Yun and Murong Jiu had a good relationship. No wonder Concubine Yun left the troupe in the palace, indicating that they must have other back-up plans.

What if she invited the emperor, but failed to catch Concubine Jing and Leader Mei's adultery, and instead, she alerted the enemy.

Thinking of this, Concubine Qi forcibly suppressed the impulse in her heart.

Concubine Yun didn't make any move.

Concubine Qi's idea is right.

Concubine Jing's first tryst with Mei Yuzong was fair and aboveboard. She asked him to talk in the pavilion behind the stage because the master of class Mei was from her hometown. The stage was covered, so Concubine Qi and others could not see it. Under the eyes of the eunuch and the maid, it was impossible for the two to have any adultery.

Even if the emperor comes, he can't find any problem with Concubine Jing.

There were only two people in the pavilion, Concubine Jing and Mei Yuzong.

Even Aunt Sujin was standing outside the pavilion. Because of the sound of singing and opera, she couldn't hear the conversation between the two.

Concubine Jing said gently: "Yulang, sing a few more plays for me, and then you can go out of the palace. I will reward you with a large sum of money, and you can lead the troupe to settle down in the capital."

She thought about it all night and felt that it was too dangerous to meet Mei Yuzong in the palace.

But last night, the emperor didn't know whether he thought of the Queen Mother or was stimulated by something. He insisted on making her wear a female monk's uniform and called her the Queen Mother's nickname. She might have met Mei Yuzong during the day and had a deviation in her mind.

To Mei Yuzong, she was an unforgettable love, but to the fat emperor, she was just a substitute.

For the first time, she wished the emperor would die.

The emperor is dead, she is the queen mother, and her son is the emperor. What can she not do?

It’s not like there were no incidents in history where the Queen Mother kept her face.

The more she thought about it, the more excited she became. It had been a long time since she had had such an impulse. After enduring it for so many years, she had also had delusions about the emperor, but every time the emperor would knock her back to her original form.

She wants to pursue her happiness, and she wants to compensate Mei Yuzong.

So she wanted Mei Yuzong to stay in the capital, so that when she became the Queen Mother, she would have nothing to worry about.

"You can also bring your parents to the capital. I no longer hate them. It's just that they may be old and can't handle it anymore."

Concubine Jing is still thinking about the future.

At this time, Mei Yuzong said calmly: "My parents have been dead for many years."

"Ah? That's right. So many years have passed and things have changed. However, Yulang, you haven't changed. You are still the same as before."

Concubine Jing didn't know that she had already killed Mei Yuzong's parents.

"How can a person remain unchanged for more than twenty years? Concubine Jing was wrong, and I have changed a long time ago."
