The Legitimate Daughter Empress - C211
Chapter 210 – Blaming yourself all the way
Qin Luofei was punished to kneel in the imperial garden. Her already bad reputation was becoming worse, and wherever she went she would be scolded by the palace maids and eunuchs. In the palace, her position was even lower than a reputable palace maid.
In the middle of Taiyuan Hospital, Leng Mu angrily punched the wall.
“You’re not allowed to go.” Lin He advised Leng Mu.
“Why? “Why can’t I protect her?” Leng Mu blamed himself.
“Don’t ruin all our plans on a whim.” Lin He advised.
“I know, but seeing her being bullied like this …”
Ever since the last time Leng Mu went to the Huishang Hall and Qin Luofei had said those words to him, he no longer dared to go and find her as frequently as before. When Leng Mu heard that Qin Luofei was angered by the Imperial Consort Leng’s punishment, he couldn’t do anything about it.
“Stop thinking about it. Only by becoming stronger will you be able to protect the person you want to protect.”
Leng Mu looked lost, and could only stay in Taiyuan Hospital to grind the herbs. Lin He was right, only the strong could protect the people they had to protect. If he appeared beside Qin Luofei now, he would definitely be discovered by the Emperor Ming. At that time, even Qin Luofei might be in danger.
Qin Luofei knelt at the side of the imperial garden. Fortunately, Imperial Consort Yu had taught her martial arts and her body had improved a lot, so she could still hold on.
Daffodil Dayflower had always been beside Qin Luofei.
“Miss, are you alright? Are you thirsty?” Daihua helped Qin Luofei wipe her sweat and prepared water for her.
“You can go back. I can handle this place by myself.” Qin Luofei pursed her lips, unable to bear the pain of having Daisy accompany her.
“Miss, your life is so bitter.” Tears welled up in Daffodil Daydream’s eyes.
“Tsk tsk tsk, isn’t this Concubine Qin?”
Concubine Qin would intentionally walk over and mock Qin Luofei. Qin Luofei glanced at Concubine Qin, then lowered her head, ignoring her.
Concubine Qin sneered, and said: “In the past, weren’t you able to say a lot? Why are you obediently kneeling now? ”
“Is Concubine Qin free? This courtyard is very big, Concubine Qin can slowly stroll around. ” Qin Luofei felt that this woman was the same as her sister in her previous life. She could do anything for the sake of wealth and honor, and kinship probably didn’t count for anything in their eyes.
Concubine Qin extended her leg and kicked Qin Luofei, then hurriedly said, “Sorry, Little Sister, I accidentally kicked you.”
Concubine Qin was purposely here to cause trouble. Qin Luofei raised her head, and swept Concubine Qin with her ice-cold eyes, with killing intent in her phoenix-like eyes.
“Do you hate me so much that you want to eat me? Seeing your pathetic state, are you unable to fight the Imperial Consort Leng, or are you trying to wake up? ” Concubine Qin said in a harsh tone.
Qin Luofei sneered: “Many thanks to Concubine Qin for the reminder, in this place, don’t let Feng Dazzling your tongue.”
“What are you pretending for? You’re not even a palace maid now and you’re still acting in front of me. I only came over to take a look at you because I pitied you. Look at your sorry state. You’ve really disgraced our Qin family.” Concubine Qin shook the dress train, and looked at Qin Luofei with disdain.
Qin Luofei raised her voice. Her eyes darkened, as if she wanted to swallow the entire Concubine Qin.
“As long as big sister doesn’t disgrace the Qin family.”
Concubine Qin glared at Qin Luofei, asking, “How did I insult the Qin Family?”
“You are only a dog of the Imperial Consort Leng. Haven’t you humiliated the Qin family?” Qin Luofei couldn’t care about anything else, so she blurted out her thoughts.
Concubine Qin’s face was filled with anger as she said, “How dare you? You even dare to spout nonsense. Be careful of what I say to the Imperial Consort Leng Empress.”
“Big sister, go ahead. Haven’t you told me enough?” Qin Luofei no longer bothered to look at her.
“Qin Luofei, just you wait. You’ll have a good time in the future.”
Concubine Qin turned and left.
Qin Luofei’s entire person was filled with an ice-cold aura, causing people to feel a chill run down their spines.
She just waited for them.
“Miss.” Daffodil Dayflower did not dare interrupt and could only watch as the young miss was bullied by the eldest miss.
Qin Luofei glanced at Dazzling Spring and said, “I’m fine.”
Daffodil Daydream nodded her head helplessly. Those people had gone too far. Even though Miss had done that, they still wanted to humiliate her.
Qin Luofei called Chrysanthemum over and whispered a few words into her ear, causing it to nod.
She would not be punished like this by the Imperial Consort Leng, and she would not let them go easily, especially Su Fei. Qin Luofei decided to secretly watch this woman, and she did not believe that she would not be able to find any tricks to play on her.
“Feverfew, you have to pay more attention to Su Fei’s side in the future. If anything happens, just let me know immediately.”
“Alright, if it wasn’t for the fact that this lady wouldn’t be punished and favored by others, wouldn’t she be outstanding?”
Because she was following Qin Luofei, Feverfew’s personality was becoming more and more similar to her.
“You can speak like that in front of me, but don’t speak like that in front of others.” Qin Luofei said.
Currently, there weren’t many people in the palace who could make her trust them, so she treasured every single one of the people around her that were good to her.
Daffodil Daydream nodded and said, “I understand, Miss. The time is almost up. I’ll go back and prepare some delicious food for Miss.”
Qin Luofei nodded. When she stood up, she noticed a palace maid staring at them from a corner not far away.
He reckoned that if he wasn’t kneeling for the entire hour, he would be sued before he reached Huishang Hall. They might just want to catch a hold of their weakness so that they could go to the Emperor Ming and complain about it. It would be best if they could use this matter to kill themselves.
When the two of them returned to the palace, Daffodil Daydream hurriedly helped the young lady get a wooden bucket so that she could soak in a bath.
“Miss, I’ll give you a massage.” Daffodil Daydream said.
Qin Luofei closed her eyes and nodded.
If people don’t offend me, I won’t offend them. Since she offended herself first, she will pay them back double.
Inside the royal study, Emperor Ming was still reviewing the imperial reports.
“Your Majesty, it’s getting late, shouldn’t we go to bed?” My father-in-law came over and reminded Emperor Ming.
Emperor Ming waved his hand and left the room.
After another two hours, Emperor Ming yawned and put down the imperial report. But at that moment, he heard a noise on the tiles, as if someone was walking on it.
“Who?” Emperor Ming’s face was full of vigilance. If Emperor Yun did not die, he would not be able to live peacefully.
Young Eunuch rushed in as soon as he heard the sound coming from Emperor Ming’s room.
“Your majesty, what happened to you?” the father-in-law asked.
“There seems to be someone on the roof. Go and tell the guards to keep watch.” Emperor Ming walked to the window and looked around. Just as he was about to walk out of the room. The candlelight dimmed as a surge of killing intent spread in the wind.
Bladelight, sword shadows, they were all heading towards Emperor Ming. Fortunately, Emperor Ming reacted quickly and dodged in time.
The black clothed man raised the long table in the royal study and threw it towards him. Emperor Ming smashed the table with his palm.
“Who the hell are you?
“How dare you.” Emperor Ming stared deadly at the black-clothed man. The sword in her hand left a deep impression on Emperor Ming and was engraved with a green snake.
The black clothed man did not respond, and once again pounced towards Emperor Ming.
The guards outside rushed in and surrounded the two people who were fighting. Seeing the guards enter, the man in black clothing didn’t seem to care about the assassination. He flew out of the window, escaping into the darkness.
The eunuch hurriedly lit the candles in the royal study.
“Your majesty, are you alright?”
“This Emperor is fine. Hurry up and go chase after the assassin.” Emperor Ming became angry from embarrassment. The palace was so heavily guarded, but there was still someone that could enter. Who was that person? The sword in her hand was carved with a green snake.
The guards all walked out, causing Emperor Ming’s heart to sink. Fortunately, he had dodged in time. Otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable. Assassin was really hard to guard against, at that moment he thought of a person, and that person was Imperial Consort Yu.
“The emperor is frightened. Let’s go back and sleep.” The eunuch said.
“To the Jade Phoenix Hall.”
The frightened Emperor Ming was full of concern for Imperial Consort Yu, afraid that something would happen to her.
“Take over the Jade Phoenix Hall.”
It was almost midnight when the Emperor Ming suddenly came. The Imperial Consort Yu was both surprised and happy.
“Your majesty, you’ve finally thought of chenqie.” When Imperial Consort Yu saw the emperor, her tone was clearly aggrieved.
“What is it? “Aren’t you happy to see me?” Emperor Ming was still immersed in the scene of the assassin.
“It’s not that I’m unhappy, it’s just that I’m pleasantly surprised. Your Majesty, you haven’t been to the Jade Phoenix Hall for some time. ”
Imperial Consort Yu even thought that the reason the Emperor thought of him tonight was because there was something going on.
“We have been assassinated tonight.” Emperor Ming’s ink-black eyes were as cold as frost, carrying a bit of hatred.
Imperial Consort Yu was surprised. “Who has the guts?”
“If only I knew. Luckily the guards were here in time. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been a match for her.” The Emperor Ming said coldly.
The Imperial Consort Yu took off the Emperor Ming’s robe and asked, “Then does the Emperor have any suspicious targets?”
Emperor Ming shook his head. When the candles had been extinguished, he saw that the Green Snake Sword had also been seen by the moonlight shining in from outside the window. He could not tell if the other party was a man or a woman.
“Your majesty should be extra careful in the future. Don’t let anything happen to him.” Imperial Consort Yu snuggled into Emperor Ming’s embrace. This was what she had been relying on all her life. She didn’t want anything to happen to him.
Emperor Ming embraced Imperial Consort Yu’s waist and said, “Love Consort can be rest assured, I will be careful. I don’t know why I only feel safe by your side. ”
Imperial Consort Yu was slightly stunned. The Emperor did not come here because she missed him, but because she was assassinated.
She was a little disappointed. What she wanted was care and love, and from the looks of it, Emperor Ming only saw her as a loyal protector.
“Imperial Consort Yu, what’s wrong? You seem even more unhappy now? ” Emperor Ming very quickly noticed that something was wrong with Imperial Consort Yu.
“Nothing, it’s getting late. Let’s go to bed.”
That night, the Imperial Consort Yu was unable to sleep, and the more he occupied her, the more empty she felt in his heart. Did this man really love her? The Imperial Consort Yu actually had a strange thought, which was to test if this man really loved her.
Early morning the next day, Imperial Consort Yu woke up early and personally prepared breakfast for Emperor Ming.
“Your majesty, chenqie will prepare a meal for you. Let’s go back after we’ve eaten together.” Imperial Consort Yu only cooked this breakfast four hours before she woke up.
Emperor Ming allowed the young eunuch to wear the robe, and said: “There’s no need, I will eat it after I return to Cool Hall.”
“Your Majesty, this concubine …” Imperial Consort Yu’s face turned slightly ugly.
Before Imperial Consort Yu could finish her sentence, Emperor Ming had already left with a wave of her sleeve. Eunuch, who was following behind Emperor Ming, saw his disappointed expression and turned to say this to her.
