Traveling through the Poisonous Concubine

Chapter 336: What Concubine Shu Wants

"Then, does the Empress know about this? As a mother, you are too rash and reckless to act like this! How can the Empress bear such a heavy blow when she is completely unaware of it?" Yun Yuxi frowned, stared straight at Emperor Su Wen, and questioned righteously.

Emperor Suwen's face was as gloomy as water. He narrowed his eyes slightly and responded coldly: "In order to make this matter look real, she must not know the inside story.

You will continue to go to the Queen Mother to rest and recuperate later. In the evening, I will trouble you, the miracle doctor, to bring me back to health. Remember to take good care of yourself. If you make any mistakes, my good brother will not let me go easily. "After saying this, Emperor Su Wen put his hands behind his back and walked away without looking back.

Seeing this, Yuelan hurried forward to support Yun Yuxi, and the master and servant slowly turned around and walked towards the Cining Palace where the Queen Mother lived. Yuelan had already made an obscure gesture in secret, and the spies planted by Yan Wuque in the palace had already seen through that the princess was safe and sound, and quickly passed the news back to the Regent's Palace.

When the two of them passed by the Imperial Garden, they saw a slightly haggard figure from afar. Looking closely, they found that it was Concubine Shu standing among the flowers. Concubine Shu looked lonely and frail, like a candle in the wind, about to fall.

Yun Yuxi thought to herself, is this Imperial Concubine Shu waiting for her here on purpose? Thinking of this, she wanted to take Yuelan to take a detour, but Imperial Concubine Shu followed closely behind them like a ghost. No matter how they dodged, they could not get rid of her entanglement.

Finally, Yun Yuxi stopped, turned around and faced Concubine Shu, and said sarcastically with a fake smile: "Oh, look at Concubine Shu's appearance. I wonder why you are waiting here? Could it be that you are here to see me?"

"Princess Regent, would you be so kind as to have a talk with me?" Concubine Shu said softly with a hint of flattery on her face.

However, Yun Yuxi just glanced at her coldly, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a mocking smile: "If I remember correctly, there doesn't seem to be much friendship between us. Could it be that you, the noble concubine, want to remind me of the so-called friendship at the palace banquet? But forgive me for being frank, it seems that we are far from being familiar with each other!"

Hearing this, Concubine Shu was immediately furious and cursed inwardly: "Bitch! How dare you be so arrogant? I will make you pay when I have the chance in the future! If I didn't have something to ask you today, why would I be here to endure your anger and act according to your mood!" Although she was extremely angry in her heart, she still tried to remain calm on the surface. Although her face was a little embarrassed, she quickly adjusted her manners and expression.

I saw that Concubine Shu forced a smile and said in a pretentious manner, "Princess, you are wrong! We are both daughters-in-law of the royal family. According to seniority, I am your sister-in-law! It was indeed my fault in the past. I hope that my sister-in-law will be magnanimous and not hold it against me."

Yun Yuxi couldn't help but sneer when she heard that, and retorted mercilessly: "I'm afraid that Concubine Shu has forgotten too much! In this huge palace, only the Empress is qualified to be called my sister-in-law. Aren't you afraid of causing trouble by lowering your status like this? Besides, if this matter gets to the ears of the Empress, I'm afraid you will be committing a serious crime of insubordination!" After saying that, she still stared at Concubine Shu with that sarcastic look, with no intention of backing down.

Concubine Shu's face froze slightly, and her exquisite makeup could hardly hide her embarrassment, but she still suppressed her displeasure and tried to maintain a dignified demeanor, as if she really just had something to discuss with Yun Yuxi.

She opened her red lips slightly and said slowly: "Oh, it was indeed my fault for what happened in the past. I hope the Regent Princess will not take it to heart. I have prepared exquisite snacks and fragrant tea in the pavilion over there, and I specially invite the princess to move over for a chat. I do have an important matter to ask you for." After that, Concubine Shu forced a smile on her face. The smile looked quite forced, which made people feel suspicious.

Yue Lan, who was standing nearby, saw this and quickly reminded her, "Princess, the Queen Mother has instructed that you should accompany her for dinner today." The implication was obvious: the master and servant were both protected by the Queen Mother, and Concubine Shu should not think of harming her own princess easily.

However, Yun Yuxi smiled slightly, waved her hand nonchalantly, and responded: "Yuelan, don't worry. This place is not too far from my mother's Cining Palace, I think there is still plenty of time. Besides, Concubine Shu invited me so sincerely, I think there must be something important that needs my help.

In this case, I have to go and see what this Concubine Shu wants. As the saying goes, 'Know yourself and know your enemy, and you can fight a hundred battles without danger'!" After saying that, she walked towards the pavilion, leaving Yuelan standing there, looking at her receding figure with a little uneasiness.

Concubine Shu led Yun Yuxi to the pavilion, and Yue Lan quickly followed. After all, too many dirty things happened in this palace.

"Yun Yuxi, let me get straight to the point. I'm going to give birth in a month or so. I know you have life-saving medicine that can help me give birth safely. The imperial physician said that this baby is too strong and a little big, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to give birth. The imperial physician said that you are the only one in the whole of Kyoto who can help me give birth safely," said Concubine Shu, looking at Yun Yuxi with hope in her eyes.

"Shu Guifei, if I remember correctly, you have repeatedly made things difficult for me before. Why should I help you? I don't have the responsibility or obligation to do so. Yuelan, let's go."

Yuelan supported Yun Yuxi and was about to leave. Concubine Shu was anxious and hurriedly got out. "What if the emperor ordered it?"

"Then let the emperor issue an order. If I don't want to, even if the emperor issues an order, I can't do it." Yun Yuxi said forcefully.

"let's go"

"Don't go. Yun Yuxi, tell me, how much silver will it take for you to help me?" Concubine Shu knew that Yun Yuxi loved money, so she asked loudly.

"Yuelan, help me sit down. Since the royal concubine is so sincere, it's not impossible for me to help you," Yun Yuxi said with a smile.

"Tell me how much silver you want?"

"One pill costs 100,000 silver coins. Don't even think about it if you don't have one. After all, my medicine is hard to come by and not everyone can get it. Your Majesty, please consider it yourself."

"Yun Yuxi, don't be too much. It's so expensive, why don't you just rob it?" Concubine Shu didn't expect Yun Yuxi to ask for such a high price.

"Do you want love? Let's go, Yuelan," he said and prepared to leave.
