Chapter 43
Early in the morning... In Fengluan Hall, the queen sat on the first seat with the support of others.Then, his eyes wandered around the group of concubines who were kneeling below, and he narrowed his eyes.Asked: "Where is Ye Meiren?"
For a long time, no one stood up to answer.
The queen frowned slightly, her face was a little ugly.In the past, for Beauty Ye, she sent people to 'invite' her but they all returned without success.After all, there was His Majesty's pampering at that time.At that time, she felt that Zuo Zuo was just a spoiled and humble servant girl, and sooner or later His Majesty would forget about it.A piece of cake.
After thinking about the news she got, Concubine Li took people to Yelan Hall to make a fuss, but His Majesty didn't say anything.This fall from grace is certain.
The queen caressed the gold bracelet on her wrist, calmed down her emotions, looked sideways at her maid of honor and asked, "Has Ye Meiren come yet?"
The palace maid took a step forward and said truthfully: "Going back to the empress, when the servants were leaving, Meiren Ye had just woken up. She is probably still on her way now."
The queen snorted softly and ignored it.She raised her hands towards the concubines who had been kneeling below for a long time and said, "Get up, sisters."
After being left aside by the empress for a long time, the legs of all the concubines were a little numb.Standing up reluctantly, he didn't dare to show a trace of dissatisfaction on his face.This woman, no matter what, is the most honorable woman in the harem except the queen mother.After the concubines got up, they stood on both sides according to their grades and bowed their heads in silence.He was silent and did not speak.
Only a few concubines who have been very favored recently have the same expressions, and the queen also said a few words from time to time with a smile.
However, as time passed bit by bit, the atmosphere in the hall became more and more condensed.Even the concubines who had dared to whisper did not dare to speak out anymore.
"Go and show me, what happened to Beauty Ye." The queen said angrily.
"Yes." The maid responded and retreated outside the hall.
When the palace maid was about to leave, the queen added another sentence: "Take four eunuchs, no matter what Ye Meiren is doing, invite her to this palace!"
Not long after the palace maid left, all the concubines could not stand still.But the queen didn't say to sit down, and none of them dared to sit down.I knelt for a long time before, and now I stand for such a long time.The faces of all the concubines were a little ugly.He didn't dare to blame the queen for this matter, and blamed Ye Meiren.They are of low rank and are not favored now, how dare they make them wait for so long!
"Concubine Su, your complexion is not very good." The queen looked at Concubine Su standing below, frowning worriedly.
With a pale face, Su Chi smiled softly and said, "Empress, my concubine is fine."
"Empress, my master is weak. He can't stand for such a long time." Xuemei supported Su Chi and spoke.She was specially sent by Xuanyuan Ye to take care of Su Chi. Judging from Su Chi's current expression, something might happen.If something happened, I would definitely not be able to escape punishment, so I didn't care about anything, and spoke directly.
When Xuemei said this, the Queen's expression suddenly turned a little ugly.But it only took a few seconds for the Queen to pack up her expression.Pretending to be apologetic: "I forgot, I haven't given seats to my sisters yet. I'm really sorry for making you stand there for so long."
The concubines knew that the queen did it on purpose and dared not say anything.
Concubine Mei was the one who stood the most relaxed. She looked out of the hall from time to time and caught the Queen's attention.
"Is sister Meifei waiting for something?" the queen asked.
Concubine Mei turned her head and smiled slightly: "No, my sister just thinks that there is a picture of hundreds of flowers that has not been embroidered, and she wants to rush back to show off."
"Sister is really ingenious." The queen nodded. In the harem, Concubine Mei's greatest hobby is embroidery.This is something that many people know.As for Concubine Mei... when the embroidery was not finished, she would become irritable.He even angered His Majesty once because of the embroidery.It was refrigerated for a long time.So the Queen believed what Concubine Mei said so easily.

the other side……
"Please leave Meiren and the slaves for a while." The maid said coldly.
Ye Qi glanced at the maid indifferently, shook his head and refused: "No."
Ye Qi's indifferent attitude and answer stunned the maid for a moment, then she frowned: "Please don't embarrass your maidservant Ye Meiren." The maid waved to the eunuch behind her, ready to be tough.
Seeing this, the four eunuchs with unkind faces stretched out their hands to restrain Ye Qi, but before they touched anyone, they felt pain all over their bodies, lost their strength, and fell heavily to the ground.
Ye Qi kicked away the person who was closer to his feet, frowned and said, "You are the one who made things difficult for me."
The palace lady was startled by the sound of several eunuchs falling, and after a few seconds, it seemed that the people on the ground couldn't get up, they just lay trembling.The palace maid didn't know what to think of, and retreated vigilantly towards the entrance of the hall.She pointed at Ye Qi, tremblingly: "Ye Meiren, how dare you hide the poison!" After speaking, she turned around and ran, but the speed of running was quite fast.
Ye Qi stood where he was, not wanting to go up and catch up.Looking at his palms, he frowned.He leaned closer and sniffed, his brows furrowed even tighter.
【⊙▽⊙What happened to Qiqi? 】
"It's nothing, I took the wrong medicine. I just wanted to let these people lose their strength temporarily, but... I'm afraid they won't be able to stand up again for the rest of their lives." Ye Qi's voice contained a trace of apology.
[...] Listening to Ye Qi saying sorry, but no matter how you look at it, the system ball feels... Ye Qi doesn't feel sorry at all!
【Qiqi, are you really careless?And not on purpose! 】
"kindness."
【…】Do you think I will believe it?Will I!
qwqQiqi, why does it feel like you are getting more and more terrifying? It must be my illusion!

The maid who ran back to Fengluan Hall at a sprint speed of [-] meters gasped to calm her heartbeat.After entering the hall, he walked to the side of the queen, put it in the queen's ear, and spoke softly and at a very fast speed, and clearly recounted the whole incident on the side.Among them, adding oil and vinegar, Ye Qi expressed his disdain for the queen's summoning intention.In the end, Ye Qi used an unknown thing to highlight the matter of the four eunuchs being poisoned.
"What did you say? Did you really see it clearly?" The queen said incredulously.
"Yes, empress, this servant can see clearly." The maid nodded heavily.
After a while, the queen looked at the concubines in the palace.Said: "I want to go and see this beauty Ye in person, all the younger sisters might as well go together."
The concubines nodded, not daring to refuse.Furthermore, they also want to see what happens when Ye Meiren angers the queen.
