Chapter 24
Time passed unknowingly, and when the atmosphere in the palace became more and more oppressive, a court lady walked in: "Your Majesty, Concubine Di is asking to see you outside the palace."

The empress frowned immediately. "Xuan."

"Yes." The maid stepped back, and after about half a cup of tea, a frail beauty in palace attire walked in through the threshold with difficulty, supported by two maids.

When she is quiet, she is like a beautiful flower shining in the water, and her actions are like a weak willow supporting the wind, which is really the best portrayal of her.I saw that she was wearing a palace robe with yellow flowers on a white background. The extremely simple and elegant color complemented her almost transparent white skin.On the palm-sized face, the overly fair skin looked a little sick, but a pair of big watery eyes shone with blue waves, and there was a bit of cowardice and tenderness in them, making even a woman like Ji Youran feel heartache.A head of black hair is tied into a bun, with only a few jade hairpins inserted obliquely on it, her slender waist is wrapped in plain fabric, so full that she can't hold it. When walking, Ji Youran is worried that she will be broken in half if she is not careful!
"oops!"

Soon, her fears became reality.Before taking a few steps, the beauty tilted her body, closed her eyes, and passed out!

"Mother concubine!"

The people around suddenly panicked, Ji Youran heard a deafening shout in his ear, and then a thin figure jumped up and ran towards that side with a limp.Although he tried his best to run as fast as he could, he was still far behind the speed of other normal people around him.Ji Youran saw it, and felt a little melancholy in his heart.

A few palace maids ran out to invite the imperial physician, and when the imperial physician came, they even brought His Majesty the emperor here for the first time!It turned out that the old man was planning to visit Concubine Di after finishing his official duties, and then he heard the news that she had come to the Queen's side and passed out, so he rushed over in a hurry.

The crowd helped Concubine Di to a chair and sat down. After the imperial doctor made a diagnosis, he just said something like "the body is weak, but this time the heart is stagnant, and the internal fire is rising, so I fainted."Applying a warm veil to her face, the Seventh Prince squatted beside her and held his mother's hand, sobbing nonstop.After about a cup of tea, Concubine Di finally woke up leisurely.

"Your Majesty!" Her eyes fluttered, and a powerless but more delicate charm flowed around her.Seeing a bright yellow in front of her eyes, she hurriedly struggled to get up and salute.The emperor hurriedly pushed her back, "My concubine is free! You are weak, so just lie down. I forgive you for your innocence."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Concubine Di said weakly, and then lay down powerlessly.Then he tilted his head, and two lines of clear tears slowly fell down the corners of his eyes.

The emperor's heart ached immediately. "My concubine, what's wrong with you?"

"The concubine is fine, really fine!" Concubine Di hurriedly shook her head, wiping her tears and saying delicately.But I don't know, the tears wiped more and more, and I couldn't stop no matter what.

Of course the emperor didn't believe it. "My concubine, the imperial physicians say that you have stagnation in your heart. Tell me what depression you have in your heart! I will solve everything that can help you."

"Chenqie..." Concubine Di bit her lip, and two more crystal clear tears rolled down.

"Your Majesty!" Afterwards, only hearing a low, lingering cry, she raised her head, her pale face was covered with tears, "I don't have depression, I just hate... I hate myself! I hate my body too much!" Weak, it is not easy to conceive, and it is easy to give birth to Ke Er, but he is not good enough to take care of him, which makes him fall off a horse and hurt his leg at a young age, and he can only be a cripple for the rest of his life. The concubine really hates why she fell and hurt her in the first place It's not the concubine! Even if the concubine is thrown to death, it is better than the concubine's child! She is a piece of meat in the concubine's stomach, and the concubine should love it like a treasure, but because the concubine A moment of negligence, he... became what he is now! It is the fault of the concubine, and it is the concubine who deserves to die. If it were not for the concubine, he would not have endured the pain of lameness since he was a child, and he would not have suffered from lameness at a young age. Just live in the ridicule of others, and you won't be unable to play with your brothers and sisters all the time, and you won't turn your brothers and sisters against each other because of this problem, and even alarm the emperor and queen. It's the fault of the concubine, everything is the concubine's fault No mistake, this concubine begs the emperor to give this concubine a cup of poisoned wine, so that this concubine can spend the rest of her life!"

"Mother and concubine don't want it! My son has never blamed you, never! If you die, the other minister will not be alive, and my son will go with you!" Hearing this, the Seventh Prince also burst into tears.The mother and son hugged together, weeping uncontrollably.

Listening to their words, the emperor's face gradually darkened.Seeing his sickly concubine and disabled prince hugging each other and crying, his heart was once again clenched by a big palm.Looking over there again, Princess Pinggu is still huddled in the empress's arms, still sobbing softly. There was also a hint of worry flashing.

"Pinggu!"

Finally, as soon as the Holy King opened his mouth, Princess Pinggu shook her body and slid out of the empress's arms smoothly, kneeling on the ground with a plop: "Father, Father!"

"You are so brave!"

"My son... my son..."

"Your Majesty, calm her—"

"Queen, shut up!" The empress was about to interject, when the emperor let out a low voice, "Do you think I really don't know? Ever since I was a child, Pinggu used his status as the elder sister to bully Lao Qi several times. , Abusing, kicking, and snatching things have never been a problem. I have never opened my mouth, waiting for you to make a fair decision. But you are so lucky, you are blindly defending her, and you still ignore Xiao Qi! To this day , she was even more daring, and actually did the thing of gathering a group of princesses to bully him. How can you let me see it? Was she beaten? I just want to say, well played! If it was me, I would Definitely hit harder!"

The empress's face turned pale, and she stood stiffly in place.Princess Pinggu shuddered, and her tears kept falling: "Father, I know my mistake, I really know my mistake! Please forgive me just once!"

"Forgive? Forgive you this time. You will definitely do it again next time. My sons and daughters, do you think I don't know your temperament?" The emperor snorted coldly and waved his hand, "Come here! Send Princess Pinggu to Fengyi Palace , just say that she is not well-mannered and needs to be taught by the Queen Mother. When will the Queen Mother nod her approval, and when will she be released again!"

"No!" Sending her to the Queen Mother, wouldn't that mean killing her?The queen mother and the queen have never liked each other, and even the queen mother has never looked at her directly.Now she even had a quarrel with Yi Wang and his wife and was sent there. The Queen Mother knew about it, why didn't she just skin her?Ping Gu hurriedly kowtowed, "Father, this minister was wrong, really wrong. You can scold and beat this minister, but don't send him to the emperor's grandmother! Please! Please!"

The emperor didn't hear it, and only glanced at the eunuchs and maids at the side: "Hurry up and act!"
