Chapter 373 I will kill all nine of your clans (9 reward points plus additional chapter)
"A few days ago, the imperial physician said that Concubine Zhao was already well again, so she moved to the right side of Xianfu Palace, Lixuan Pavilion. This was approved by you."
Concubine Liu had to deal with many palace affairs every day. After Cuizhu said this, she remembered: "It turned out to be her."
"Someone go to Lixuan Pavilion and call Concubine Zhao over."
A eunuch said, "Yes!"
Wu Changzai was also among the low-ranking palace concubines watching the fun.
But at this moment, she couldn't laugh anymore.
Because she not only knew Zhao Changhe, but was also familiar with him.
She was frail and sickly, and had been staying in Luoying Pavilion without going out. Zhao Changhe would occasionally bring in small toys from outside the palace to entertain her.
Including the time when the Wu family fell into trouble, it was Zhao Changhe who used his connections outside to save Yaozu from being bullied, and he often brought her news about Yaozu.
In fact... Wu Changzai has always known Zhao Changhe's secret feelings towards her.
However, she has long been His Majesty's woman, and there is absolutely no possibility between her and Zhao Changhe!
Therefore, the two have always kept their distance and only interacted as friends.
Why did Zhao Changhe have an affair with a concubine?
Could it be that all his previous feelings for me were fake, and he actually just liked to have ambiguous relationships with the women in his harem?
At this moment, Wu Changzai was in a state of confusion...
Not long after, Xiao Huazi came back with the underwear she had found in Zhao Changhe's room.
He himself was also escorted here.
Zhao Changhe was tall, with sharp eyebrows and sharp eyes. He was a very handsome man. His appearance was not inferior to Jiang Sheng at all.
When they saw him, some palace concubines suddenly understood why someone would risk losing their heads to have an affair with Zhao Changhe.
As Xiao Huazi threw the underwear she had found on the ground, many palace concubines blushed when they saw the lotus embroidered on their bellybands.
The clothes of the empresses and concubines were all made by the embroiderers of the Imperial Household Department. At a glance, everyone could tell that this cloth was indeed the share of the concubines!
When it comes to high-ranking concubines, even if Concubine Liu is in charge of the Queen's power, she cannot be interrogated or dealt with casually: "Cuizhu, go and invite His Majesty to Yongshou Palace!"
"Slave, you obey!"
There were only a few high-ranking concubines in the harem. While Concubine Liu was angry, she was actually more curious: "You bold Zhao Changhe, why don't you tell me who you had an affair with?!"
When Zhao Changhe came in, he saw Wu Changzai sitting next to him at a glance.
Unexpectedly... although he had never told anyone about his feelings for Wu Changzai, they were still noticed by someone.
The man actually used Wu Changzai as a threat and forced him to do something he didn't want to do.
But... he had no choice.
Who made him fall for Wu Changzai the first time he saw her? As long as he could protect her and let her live happily and peacefully in the palace, he would do anything.
Zhao Changhe knelt on the ground, deliberately showing a panic, but finally clenched his teeth and said: "No matter how wrong I am, it's all my fault. Your Majesty, please punish me. I don't want to implicate others."
Jiang Sheng sighed, "Brother Zhao, you can't blame me for what happened today. Having an affair with a concubine and committing adultery in the harem is a capital crime punishable by execution of the entire family!"
"I just don't want to see you make mistakes again and again and end up bringing trouble to the family."
"Just listen to my advice and tell me about the concubine who is not faithful to her husband! Maybe the imperial concubine will ask His Majesty to be lenient with you because you tell the truth."
At this time, Concubine Zhao also arrived.
She bowed respectfully to Concubine Liu, and looked at Zhao Changhe with a complicated expression: "Cousin, did you really do such a stupid thing?!"
Zhao Changhe just lowered his head and said nothing.
Concubine Liu sneered and slowly put down the teacup in her hand: "Although the concubines' underwear looks similar, there are subtle differences in fabric, style, and embroidery."
"Even if you don't confess, I can find out the truth with some time."
"By then, not only you, but even the noble lady Zhao standing in front of you and the Zhao family outside the palace will all be implicated!"
"What? Do you really want to bring trouble to the entire Zhao family because of you?!"
Concubine Zhao was almost crying: "Cousin, please tell me now!"
"I have been in the palace for so long, and I finally recovered from my illness and was able to be seen by His Majesty again. Do you really want to destroy me and the Zhao family because of your own selfish interests?!"
Zhao Changhe seemed a little scared. He raised his head and asked nervously, "My Lady, I never thought that this matter... this matter would be exposed one day..."
"If I tell the truth, can you really ask Your Majesty to punish me and not vent your anger on Lady Zhao and the Zhao family?"
Concubine Liu's peach blossom eyes were filled with a sharp light: "You are not qualified to bargain with me."
"Tell the truth, or wait for me to find out who the whore you had an affair with is, and then punish her severely! You can choose one."
Zhao Changhe seemed to have lost all his strength. He knelt on the ground and trembled, "I... deserve to die..."
"No matter how wrong I am, it's all my fault... I was blinded by lust and bewitched by Concubine Rou's beauty..."
"What man can resist a beauty like her? I was blinded by greed for a moment, please have mercy, Madam Royal Concubine!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the whole audience was in an uproar!
Even Concubine Liu was stunned.
"What nonsense!"
Nangong Xuan walked in from outside without even caring about his image as an emperor. He kicked Zhao Changhe hard and shouted angrily, "Who gave you the guts to slander Concubine Rou?!"
"If you dare to say something dirty about her again, I will kill all your clans!"
Everyone immediately stood up and saluted: "Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty!"
Jiang Sheng also knelt on the ground, lowered his head, and a cold arc appeared at the corner of his lips.
Concubine Rou has been toasting but she refuses to accept the punishment. She ignores him every time he shows his goodwill. So let Zhao Changhe destroy her!
Both he and Concubine Wen knew that this plan was poorly executed and even full of loopholes.
But it doesn't matter.
Because the world is harsh on women, a woman's reputation is more important than her life, let alone a woman of the emperor?
As long as they throw the dirty water of adultery on Concubine Rou, even if the evidence they produce is not sufficient, rumors can kill people!
As long as His Majesty has even the slightest suspicion in his heart, he will never favor Concubine Rou again. The heir in her belly will also become a bastard with unknown bloodline!
The future of both mother and son is over!
Jiang Sheng was quite impressed. Concubine Wen's move was truly brilliant!
She knows how to best destroy a woman!
