Chapter 543 Rescue
Concubine Liu knelt on the ground, disappointed by the emperor's condemnation, but everyone pointed the blame at her. Would she say anything more?

The emperor looked at Concubine Liu and shook his head and sighed: "I always thought Concubine Liu was smart and sensible. Even though you have a little temper sometimes, you still know the general situation. Concubine Rui is pregnant. I asked you to come here to take care of her, but What about you? I really don't know what your intentions are after taking care of her so badly!"

Concubine Liu looked up at the emperor, her left cheek was so red and swollen that the emperor felt a little distressed when she saw it, thinking that she had indeed acted too hard before.

"Your Majesty, if the concubine says that there is no concubine, can the emperor trust the concubine?"

"You said no? Then you mean that Concubine Rui wronged you?"

"Concubine Rui didn't wrong my concubine, but the palace servant made a mistake."

"Okay, even if the palace servant made a mistake, let me ask you, have you ever quarreled with Concubine Rui?"

Concubine Liu's face froze, flustered, and she finally nodded helplessly: "Yes, my concubine and Concubine Rui had an argument, but it was my concubine's unintentional mistake, Your Majesty!"

"Unintentional mistake?" The emperor sneered: "Concubine Liu, don't think that I don't know what you are thinking. Concubine Rui is pregnant with twins. I said I would promote her to be a concubine. You are also a concubine. Now there is no Concubine Shu." And Concubine Li, you are the only concubine in the concubine position who has no heirs, so you are naturally worried, so you can only hope that something happens to the twins in Concubine Rui's belly!"

Concubine Liu's legs went limp, she slumped on the ground, and said with a bitter smile: "It turns out that in the emperor's heart, the concubine is such a vicious person, that's all, since the emperor also said that the concubine is the only concubine without heirs, That concubine should abdicate as well, and the concubine will recognize what the emperor wants to do."

The emperor was anxious: "Concubine Liu, you really have the intention of harming others!"

"Your Majesty!" Concubine Liu's voice suddenly became louder, and she looked at the emperor with red eyes full of pain: "It's you who said that the concubine is harmful to others, not that the concubine admits that she is harmful to others."

"I'm just guessing, but you admit it."

"The concubine admitted it. It was because the emperor made the concubine feel sad. The concubine had no heirs, and the emperor still wanted the concubine to serve Concubine Rui, a woman who was pregnant with twins. Every time the concubine saw her, she would cry Can think of my own incompetence, think of everything I have experienced, those painful memories are like poisonous thorns, which cannot be removed from the heart of the concubine, the grievance in the concubine's heart, has the emperor ever cared?"

The emperor didn't know how to refute for a moment. Indeed, Concubine Liu had suffered a lot because of him, and the reason why she was barren for the rest of her life had nothing to do with him, but this couldn't be her reason for harming others.

"It's because you have resentment in your heart that you harmed Concubine Rui and caused her to move her fetus, didn't you?"

"Your Majesty, the concubine never said that she intentionally wanted to harm Concubine Rui. These were all forced by the emperor on the concubine's head."

"Didn't you do it on purpose? Then what happened at that time, can you explain clearly one by one, is there any evidence?"

"Isn't it ridiculous for the emperor to say these things? Those who can be witnesses are either concubines or concubines Rui. Can the emperor believe what they say?"

"Then tell me!" The emperor frowned, as if he was thinking about something.

Yun Lanyue looked at the emperor, then at Concubine Liu, but in the end she didn't say anything. She would help Concubine Liu, but if it was this time, the more she helped, the more busy she would be.

Concubine Liu held back her tears and knelt down again: "The concubine said just now that when she sees the concubine Rui, the concubine will think of all the things before. The concubine suppressed herself too much, so last night the concubine Rui said she was not feeling well and asked the concubine to go and see When watching, the concubine felt a little wronged, and the concubine Rui also asked the concubine to serve her water and rub her sore legs. The emperor knew that the concubine had never done this before, which made the concubine Rui Feeling uncomfortable, she said that the concubine did it on purpose. The concubine got angry for a while, so she said a few words to her. At that time, she was fine. Who knew that not long after the concubine returned to the dormitory, it was reported that the concubine Rui had moved her baby. The news that I was about to get angry, my concubine also regretted it, but it is useless to regret it at this time."

The emperor frowned, as if he was considering the credibility of this matter: "You mean, Concubine Rui made things difficult for you first?"

"The concubine didn't say it was difficult, it was the emperor's judgment."

The emperor thought of Concubine Rui's previous temper, it was not impossible, but after all, he had just given birth to twins, so he couldn't wrong her, so he called Concubine Rui's personal maid, Hongxia, for questioning.

Hongxia is a smart person, but no matter how smart she is, she dare not tell lies in front of the emperor. Although she avoids the seriousness and hurriedly brushes past the embarrassment of Concubine Liu, the emperor still hears the real situation of this matter, and understands that it is him Concubine Liu was misunderstood.

After all, he is the emperor, how could he admit his mistake, cleared his throat and said, "Concubine Liu, you should have told me about this earlier."

Concubine Liu's eyes were red with grievance, her tears were not held back at once, and fell like pearls with a broken string: "This concubine wanted to say something, but the emperor never gave this concubine a chance."

The emperor sighed: "Are you blaming me?"

"Chen and concubine dare not."

Concubine Liu has a stubborn temper, and her current posture is completely in line with her temperament. The emperor can't help it.

The queen understood, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, this time you wronged Concubine Liu. Although Concubine Liu did something wrong, it was Concubine Rui who provoked first. It's not good to punish her too harshly, Concubine Liu just don't argue with her because Concubine Rui got pregnant and suffered."

She deliberately told Concubine Liu to stop fussing with Concubine Rui, which was to give her enough face, as if to say that this time, if you say forgive her, forgive her, and if you say you want to punish, we will punish.

That's what the queen said, but Concubine Liu knew that it was impossible for Concubine Rui to punish her. She had just given birth to twins and was a great hero in the eyes of the emperor.

However, Concubine Liu has been in the palace for such a long time, and she knows how to deal with things smoothly. The emperor slapped her before, but now this slap is enough for the emperor to feel guilty. She doesn't care if Concubine Rui is punished. Compensating her is the most important thing.

Concubine Liu glanced at Yun Lanyue, Yun Lanyue stood up at the right time, and blessed the emperor: "Father, Lanyue thinks today is a great day, so it is really inappropriate to say whether to punish or not, everyone I have been guarding here for a long time, so I might as well leave first, anyway, no major problems have arisen, and too many investigations will only make this matter worse."

Yun Lanyue's words were regarded as a rescue for the emperor. The emperor quickly nodded in agreement, and then let everyone disperse.
