First Concubine

Chapter 284 Extra: The Ups and Downs of Two Loves (3)

This condition is really very tempting. All Xun Yi wants is for Shui Linglong to stay by his side for the rest of his life. If he can control his little happiness, he can indeed achieve his long-cherished wish... What? "Whether he chooses to control Kaixin or cure Kaixin, he still needs what Mrs. Mei has in hand, and Mrs. Mei must have wanted more from him, so she didn't give him what she needed when Mei Qing'er entered the palace. Hand over everything together.

Dan Ju lowered her eyes and said, "Let the young master conceive a dragon heir."

Xun Yi raised his eyebrows, and Dan Ju said again: "Before the other concubines."

 …

In the dormitory, Shui Linglong looked at Aunt Zhuang who was forcibly taken out of the quilt and didn't even have time to comb her hair. She smiled half-heartedly and said, "Long time no see. How are you? Second sister!"

Aunt Zhuang, no, Shui Lingxi was so frightened that her legs weakened and she knelt on the ground.

Shui Linglong gestured to Liu Lu, who stepped forward, touched the back of her head, and took off her human skin mask. The face that was once so beautiful was now covered with fine lines. .

Shui Linglong clapped her hands, and the **** pushed a cart full of torture instruments into the inner hall. Hooks, pliers, irons, knives, swords, splints, hammers... everything you can imagine.

Shui Lingxi couldn't help but shiver.

Shui Linglong stood up, picked up a piece of red-hot coal with a pair of tongs, and walked gently towards Shui Lingxi. Suddenly, the ground shook, like an earthquake but not an earthquake. The world was spinning. It flashed slowly like a slow motion. Double images appeared everywhere Shui Linglong saw. The octagonal glass lamp swayed back and forth, and something fell off the table. Luo... She couldn't see the Shuiling River clearly, nor could she see the willows clearly, and even her fingers became blurry... Who was speaking in her ears, like a slow voice, or like emerging from the bottom of the water, thick, It's low, long, and full of creepy weirdness, making people feel like the world is about to collapse...

"Toffee, what's wrong with you? Toffee! Toffee!" was Liu Lu's voice.

Shui Linglong suddenly opened her eyes and realized that everything was still the same. The lamp above had not moved, but it was clearly shaking so hard just now. The tea sets on the table were intact, but they clearly could not withstand the violent shaking and fell down...

Liu Lu took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat from Shui Linglong's forehead, "Ms. Princess, have you not had a good rest?"

Shui Linglong's eyes moved left and right, and she said in confusion: "Just now...did you feel...an earthquake?"

“Earthquake?” Liu Luxing’s eyes widened, “No! Madam, you...”

Shui Linglong waved her hand, Liu Lu said no more. Shui Linglong walked towards Shui Lingxi with the charcoal fire under her arm. The breeze blew, shaking the pungent smell, which made Shui Lingxi burst into tears, "You...you...eldest sister, what...are you going to do?"

Shui Linglong approached her step by step and asked sinisterly: "Who is Mrs. Mei?"

Shui Lingxi turned away, trying to avoid the approaching danger, "Mei...Mrs. Mei is Mrs. Mei, the mistress of the Mei family of the Xi clan."

Shui Linglong stood in front of her and stretched out the red charcoal towards her.

"Ah - ah - ah -" Shui Lingxi was so frightened that she held her head and screamed more and more horribly! For a moment, she felt that she was going to die, and that she would die miserably, with all her body and skin...

Shui Linglong raised the corners of her mouth coldly. The charcoal fire only burned off a strand of Shui Lingxi's hair. She hung the charcoal fire above Shui Lingxi's head and asked, "Who is Mrs. Mei?"

"She...she...she...ah-" Severe pain came from her right ear. Shui Lingxi hurriedly covered it and rolled to the ground, wuwu... What she planned to say, she was just frightened and stuttered...

Shui Linglong kept chasing her with charcoal fire, but she repeated the same sentence as if it had never changed: "Who is Mrs. Mei?"

Shui Lingxi cried out: "Don't burn me! I said! Mrs. Mei moved to the Xi tribe from South Vietnam! I don't know who she is specifically. I only heard Danju call her 'Changning'!"

 The red candle burned all night until dawn. Mei Qing'er curled up on the bedside, sobbing softly. Xun Yi put on his outer robe and walked out of Chenghuan Hall coldly. The direction he went to was Yao Xin's Taihe Hall.

Snapped! Yao Xin's comb fell to the ground. She looked at her graceful son in the bronze mirror and asked in great surprise: "What did you say? Say it again."

Xun Yi said expressionlessly: "I was lucky enough to see Mei Qing'er last night. Mei Qing'er is very popular with me. I want to canonize her as Li..."

Snapped! Yao Xin stood up, turned around and slapped Xun Yi on the face.

 “How young are you when you are blessed with a palace concubine? Do you know what you are doing?”

 This was the first time Yao Xin hit Xun Yi in thirteen and a half years. Her lungs were about to explode. She had no choice but to agree to marry Mei Qing'er at the beginning, but she never thought of letting them consummate their marriage so early! Isn't this... hollowing out his body?

Xun Yi clenched his fists and said calmly: "I want to canonize Mei Qing'er as Concubine Li!"

Yao Xin was so angry that she ran away, "Come here! Kill all the emperor's chamberlains and Miss Mei's chamberlains with a cane! The emperor is young and has nothing to do, don't they, the slaves, know how to stop them? Even if they can't be stopped, they still have to report it to the Ai family or The concubine is the right one! What a bunch of rubbish!"

Shui Linglong learned that Xun Yi and Yao Xin had a huge quarrel in the Hall of Supreme Harmony and hurried to the place where the incident occurred without even having breakfast. Xun Yi knelt on the ground, looking forward to death; Mei Qing'er knelt beside him weakly, with tears streaming down her face. Shui Linglong noticed that their hands were tightly clasped together, as if they couldn't separate them no matter what.

Shui Linglong frowned, "What... is going on?"

Xun Yi looked at Yao Xin and said categorically: "I just found out that Qing'er is the sweetheart I met by chance in the Xi clan. I actually fell in love with her at the first sight. Please allow me to give her a title." ”

“Huh?” Shui Linglong looked at Xun Yi suspiciously.

Xun Yi's decision to confer Mei Qing'er as Concubine Li was finally approved. Xun Yi's relationship with Mei Qing'er grew day by day. He would take time to sit in Chenghuan Hall every day after court, sometimes for two quarters of an hour, sometimes for two hours. , no one knows what she did, but a month later, Mei Qing'er, who was only fourteen years old, became pregnant.

Xun Yi held a banquet with hundreds of officials to celebrate Concubine Li. Yao Xin was so angry that she was bedridden and did not attend. Shui Linglong and Xun Huan attended Li Fei's banquet in their best clothes. Li Fei snuggled into Xun Yi's arms, with a happy and sweet smile on her face. At such a young age, she had no idea what the risks of childbirth would be. Xun Yi, who was wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, hugged her, and his lips, which were redder than the woman's, raised a coquettish smile, and a arrogant imperial aura slowly spread.

The sky and the earth shook again, and the double image appeared again. Shui Linglong fell unsteadily to the ground. She rubbed her hazy eyes, and for a moment she couldn't tell whether it was Xun Feng or Xun Yi who was sitting on the dragon chair.

“Ah—” screams erupted from the crowd, and Shui Linglong’s vision became clear, and she was shocked to realize that she had not fallen at all, but was standing in the middle of the hall. She breathed a sigh of relief, but suddenly she saw two black figures rushing towards Xun Yi and Xun Huan. She was between the two of them, and in less than a second, she made a decision—quickly walked to the right and threw down the stunned Xun Huan.

Shui Linglong followed the sound and found Xun Yi lying in a pool of blood. His shoulder blade was ruthlessly pierced by the assassin's sword.

"Yi'er!" Shui Linglong let go of Xun Huan and stumbled towards Xun Yi, but was pushed away by him when she was about to hug him.

Xun Yi covered the wound, and a layer of mist appeared in his eyes. It was a sign of strong loss and sadness, "Why don't you save me? No matter what I do, I can't replace his position in your heart, can I?"

Shui Linglong's body began to tremble, and tears fell down, "No, I thought... you could hide away..."

"Because I have always been very strong, domineering, and resourceful, I don't need anyone's protection and love, right?" Xun Yi smiled coldly.

Shui Linglong looked at him and had another illusion. The person who smiled at him became Xun Feng again. She blinked desperately and looked at him again. Xun Yi took out a wooden box from his arms and threw it to her. In front of me, "Get out! Take Bodhisattva, take him, get out of the palace! Get out of the imperial city! I never want to see you again! I don't want to see you who never understand how much I have paid for you!"

 …

"By God's blessing, the emperor issued an edict saying that the concubine Shui's moral conduct was lacking and she was not able to protect her well. She was not very respectful to her superiors and cruel and violent to her subordinates. She was a disgrace to the teachings of the late emperor. With immediate effect, she was deposed as a concubine and demoted to a commoner. Two Prince Xun Huan has deposed his royal status, removed his royal surname, and expelled him from the palace!"

The pattering rain wet the lush green grass, and the wheels of the vehicles left traces one after another. Xun Huan opened the curtain and looked at the boundless night, the endless night rain, his eyes were wet, "Brother...brother..."

Xun Yi ran in the rain on the city wall, chasing the direction of the carriage. Blood flowed all the way, but he was completely unaware of the pain. He just suppressed his longing and pain and called out one after another: "Mother Concubine! Mother Concubine! Mother Concubine..." Linglong, Linglong! Linglong..."
