Chapter 142 The Queen is Furious
After hearing Zhen Huan's words, the emperor slowly turned his head and cast his gaze towards An Lingrong.
At this moment, he saw An Lingrong looking at him shyly, her eyes full of anticipation.
The emperor also loved An Lingrong very much, and he favored her countless times during the six months when Zhen Huan was away from the palace.
And tonight, the emperor originally planned to accompany Zhen Huan, because he felt that Zhen Huan must miss him as much as he did after not seeing him for so long.
But at this moment, Zhen Huan had already said that she was not feeling well, and the Emperor was too sympathetic to do so, so he had to give up.
When the emperor saw An Lingrong's shy expression, a trace of desire was instantly aroused.
So the emperor looked at Zhen Huan again and said gently: "Huan Huan is right. It's my fault for being too impatient today."
Then, the emperor reached out and held one of Zhen Huan's hands, gently patted the back of her hand, and said:
"Hanhuan, you should take care of yourself first and rest for a few days. I will come to accompany you another day."
Zhen Huan quietly placed her other hand at her side and gestured "Yeah" to An Lingrong.
An Lingrong responded with a smile.
The emperor slowly stood up, took An Lingrong's hand, and walked towards the Yanx Palace.
Su Peisheng, who followed the emperor, really couldn't understand why Concubine Xi pushed the emperor away. Many people wanted to sleep with the emperor but they didn't even have the chance.
Gyeongin Palace
After the queen returned from Sui Yuxuan, she felt angry all the way and had no place to vent.
As the queen of a country, she should behave like a mother to the country, so she couldn't lose her temper in the palace.
As soon as she arrived at Jingren Palace, the Queen began to vent her anger.
As soon as the queen entered the inner hall, she scolded the little palace maid who was closing the window and door: "Why do you close the window in such a stuffy weather? Are you trying to make me angry?"
The little maid was so frightened that she immediately knelt on her knees: "Your Majesty, please calm down. I saw that it was a bit windy and I was afraid that Your Majesty would catch a cold at night, so I..."
"You slut, how dare you talk back?" The queen became even more annoyed after listening to the little maid's explanation.
He walked up to her and slapped her, leaving a red palm print and a trace of blood at the corner of her mouth.
The little palace maid was young and didn't know what she had done wrong, but she had to endure a beating from the Queen Mother. However, she knew she couldn't speak anymore because her mouth hurt.
The Queen was just about to ask Lanxiang to slap the little palace maid in the face.
To the Queen's surprise, Lanxiang knelt down immediately and pleaded for the little palace maid:
"Your Majesty, Chunmei is still young and doesn't know the rules. Please forgive her."
The queen looked at Lanxiang in exasperation. Even Lanxiang was going to make her angry.
The reason why she went to Suiyuxuan today and used the matter of Queen Chunyuan's relics to make her presence felt was so that the emperor would remember Queen Chunyuan while also remembering her, Chunyuan's biological sister, because she hadn't seen the emperor for a long time.
Another purpose of the Queen's visit to Sui Yuxuan was to disgust Zhen Huan and make her jealous of the late Queen Chun Yuan.
However, Zhen Huan did not seem angry at all, so the Queen could only keep her anger to herself.
Because Zhen Huan brought twins back to the palace, the emperor named her Noble Consort Xi as soon as she returned, which made her almost equal to herself. If this continued, she might seize her position as queen one day.
The queen became angrier and angrier as she thought about it, and now even Lanxiang, the person she trusted the most, was about to make her angry.
The queen was so angry that she kicked Lanxiang with all her might.
Lanxiang was caught off guard and fell backwards. Fortunately, she supported herself on the ground with one hand, so her head did not hit the ground, otherwise her life would have been in danger.
After Lanxiang was kicked in the stomach by the Queen, she felt a stomachache and vomited blood.
She had never seen the empress so angry since the day she was summoned from the Ulanara family to serve her.
Lanxiang knew very well what an honor it was to be the Queen's personal maid, but at this moment she felt very wronged at being treated like this by the Queen for no apparent reason.
Lanxiang didn't know why the Queen was so angry without any warning, as she had been chatting happily with the Emperor in Suiyuxuan just now.
Lanxiang lowered her head, not daring to make any sound of pain, for fear of upsetting the Queen again.
The Queen Mother coldly ordered, "Go to the backyard and receive your punishment. Each of you will be slapped more than fifty times on the face! Don't let me hear any noise."
The little palace maid carefully helped Lanxiang up and walked to the backyard. The two felt extremely wronged. They were beaten and hurt, but they couldn't cry out.
The queen was so angry that she could hardly stand. A little palace maid standing by immediately stepped forward and supported the queen, "Your Majesty, please take care of yourself!"
The little palace maid helped the queen onto the couch. After the queen sat firmly, she gently held her forehead, slowly closed her eyes, and let out a long sigh.
No one understands her, no one, no one...
After a moment, the queen said to the little palace maid beside her: "Go and ask Director Zhou to come and see me."
Not long after, Jay Chou, dressed in eunuch's uniform, came before the queen and bowed respectfully, saying, "Your servant greets Her Majesty the Queen."
After the queen closed her eyes for a while, she heard Jay Chou's voice and seemed to be comforted.
The queen slowly opened her eyes. Her phoenix eyes, framed by her long eyelashes, were particularly beautiful. Jay Chou couldn't help but stare at her in a trance.
Jay Chou realized that the queen was a little unhappy at the moment, and immediately lowered his head in confusion.
When the Queen saw Jay Chou lowering his head, she instantly felt like teasing him.
So the Queen dismissed the maids and said to Director Zhou in a cold voice, "Why don't you dare look directly at me? Raise your head and let me take a look."
"My queen, I......"
